American
Providentialism -
The hand of God in American history.
By His hand the United
States was established and
only by His hand She will survive.

When a people lose their history, they lose a part
of who
they are. Through revisionist history, the citizens of the United States
have become a people without a past. The country has lost its soul,
because its
citizens have forgotten [not taught & lied to about] their
true
history, and thus, have lost their reason for existence. As a country,
we have
forgotten the God who created us. We have forgotten that divine hand
that
safely carried the country though two of Her three Perils or
three “Great
Struggles”
for survival.
George Washington would be pained to
know that
his words of advice to the country, after
the “First Peril” or
Revolutionary War, forewarning for the survival of
our nation, would be
ignored and lost on later generations of uneducated, morally
relativistic,
apathetic misinformed citizens. “I am sure there never was a
people, who had
more reason to acknowledge a Divine interposition [hand of God] in
their
affairs, than those of the United States; and I should be pained to
believe
that they have forgotten that agency, which was so often manifested
during our
revolution, or that they [American people] failed to consider the
omnipotence
of that God who is alone able to protect
them.” Because, “The propitious smiles of Heaven
can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of
order
and right which Heaven itself has ordained.”
Abraham Lincoln in the heat of the “Second
Peril” or Civil War, framed the country’s problem
best, “We
have forgotten God. We have forgotten the
gracious hand which preserved us in peace and multiplied and enriched
and
strengthened us, and we have vainly imagined in the deceitfulness of
our hearts
that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and
virtue of
our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too
self-sufficient
to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to
pray to
the God who made us!”
Many Americans today are ignorant
of their own history, and ignorant of the Founding
Fathers wise words
of wisdom to the country. Some want to remove God from government,
society, and
the minds of Her people, especially children. It won’t be
done, and it can’t be
done, because it is basis, and reason of our existence as a country.
God
was
“The Original Intent” behind the country's
formation, and it is only by His
hand, the country still exists today. As Patrick Henry stated,
“There is a
just God that presides over the destinies of nations.” As a
nation, we have not
only forgotten God, but we have transgressed against the Law [divine],
and the
Word. No nation in recorded history, ever, violates divine law with
impunity.
And so, as with the Revolutionary War and Civil War, where faith and
trust in
God pulled Americans through, shortly, once again our survival as a
nation will
come down our faith, our prayers, and “In God We
Trust.” But in order for us to
understand our future, we must first understand the true history of our
past,
because in the divine order of things, both are inexorably
linked. Reclaim
your heritage; pass this on to a friend or family member.

“Your nation [United States]
must come to terms
with the truth [violation of divine law and true history] if
it hopes to
prosper and survive. I am protecting those who choose righteousness.
... I
appear tearful tonight, it is because of the paradoxical nature of your
country's choices. Your nation cannot, on the one hand, be consecrated
to My
Immaculate Conception, and on the other hand, legislate against life in
the
womb. Such duplicity is not a strength but a weakness, and does not
bode well
for the future. … God does not permit Me to protect the
entire nation which has
chosen compromise over sound moral principles.”

“For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am
willing to know the
whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it.”
— Patrick Henry (1736-1799) Patriot, Lawyer and Orator
“When opinions are free, ether in matters of government or
religion, truth will
finally and powerfully prevail.”
— Thomas Paine (1736-1809) Patriot, Author &
Pamphleteer
“Seek the LORD, all you humble of the land, who do his
commands; seek
righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you may be hidden on the day of
the wrath
of the LORD.”
— Zephaniah 2:3 RSV
