AMOS 5:14-15:
Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so The LORD, the God of Hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken.
Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgement in the gate: it may be that The LORD God of Hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph. (1)
I CORINTHIANS 16:13-14:
Watch ye, stand fast in the Faith, quit you like men, be strong.
Let all your things be done with charity. (1)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
B. "AMERICA" - THE HYMN, 1832:
My Country 'tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing;
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the Pilgrim's pride,
From every mountainside,
Let freedom ring.
Our fathers' God! to thee,
Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing:
Long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy light;
Protect us by Thy might,
Great God, our King. (3,55)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
ISAIAH 33:22:
For The LORD is our judge, The LORD is our lawgiver, The LORD is our king; He will save us. (1)
ROMANS 8:31-34:
...If God be for us, who can be against us?
He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?
Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's Elect? It is God that justifieth.
Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, Who also make intercession for us. (1)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
C. THE INAUGURATION PRAYER OF THE STATUE OF LIBERTY ENLIGHTENING THE WORLD, 1886:
Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, who art of infinite majesty and mercy, by whose counsel and might the courses of the worlds are wisely ordained and irresistibly established, yet who takest thought of the children of men, and to whom our homage in all our works is justly due: We bless and praise Thee...
It is in Thy favor, and through the operation of the Gospel of Thy grace, that cities stand in quiet prosperity; that peaceful commerce covers the seas...
We pray that the Liberty which it represents may continue to enlighten with beneficent instruction, and to bless with majestic and wide benediction, the nations which have part in this work of renown...
We pray for all the nations of the earth; that in equity and charity their sure foundations may be established; that in piety and wisdom they may find a true welfare, in obedience to Thee, glory and praise; and that, in all the enlargements of their power, they may be ever the joyful servants of Him to whose Holy dominion and kingdom shall be no end... (3)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
PSALMS 91:1-4:
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of The Almighty.
I will say of The LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in Him will I trust.
Surely He shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust: His truth shall be thy shield and buckler. (1)
MATTHEW 5:14-16:
Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven. (1)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
II. WHAT WE ARE BECOMING:
A. THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED SOVIET SOCIALIST REPUBLICS OF 1922:
ARTICLE 124: "In order to ensure to citizens freedom of conscience, the churh in the U.S.S.R. is separated from the State, and the school from the church."(3,8)
ARTICLE 142: "Breach of laws governing the separation of church from state and of education from the church: Any breach of the laws governing the separation of the church from the state and of education from the church is punishable by corrective labor for a maximum term of one year or a fine of 50 rubles."(60)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
AMOS 8:11-12:
Behold, the days come, saith The LORD GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of The LORD:
And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of The LORD, and shall not find it. (1)
II PETER 2:17-19:
These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.
For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.
While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. (1)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
B. THE OBJECTIVES OF THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO OF 1848 SUMMARIZED:
1. The Destruction of "Biblical Religion" (Judaism and Christianity - both Catholic & Protestant).
2. The Destruction of the "patriarchal family":
The abolition of the" family" (as ordained by GOD ALMIGHTY).
The effective abolition of "marriage" (One man and one woman joined in Holy Matrimony).
3. The destruction of "private property" ownership.
4. The destruction of the "independence of nations."
5. The replacement of "home" education (controlled by parents) with "social" education (controlled by the state).
6. The state intervention in the home in the interests of "emancipating" children (from their parents! - so as to be better controlled by the state).
7. The creation of a "socialist world government." (56)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
PSALMS 83:1-5 & 12-18:
Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not Thy peace, and be not still, O God.
For, lo, Thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate Thee have lifted up the head.
They have taken crafty counsel against Thy people, and consulted against Thy hidden ones.
They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against Thee:...
Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
So persecute them with Thy tempest, and make them afraid with Thy storm.
Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek Thy Name, O LORD.
Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
That men may know that Thou, Whose Name alone is JEHOVAH, art the Most High over all the earth. (1)
REVELATION 13:11-18:
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
And he doth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred three score and six. (1)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
C. THE PLANKS OF THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO:
1. Abolition of property in land and the application of all rents of land to public purposes.

LAMENTATIONS 5:1-16:
Remember, O LORD, what is come upon us: consider, and behold our reproach.
Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens.
We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows.
We have drunken our water for money; our wood is sold unto us.
Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest.
We have given the hand to the Egyptians, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.
Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities.
Servants have ruled over us: there is none that doth deliver us out of their hand.
We gat our bread with the peril of our lives because of the sword of the wilderness.
Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible famine.
They ravished the women in Zion, and the maids in the cities of Judah.
Princes are hanged up by their hand: the faces of elders were not honoured.
They took the young men to grind, and the children fell under the wood.
The elders have ceased from the gate, the young men from their musick.
The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.
The crown is fallen from our head: woe unto us, that we have sinned! (1)
MATTHEW 24:3-14:
And as He sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto Him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of Thy coming, and of the end of the world?
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
For many shall come in My Name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for My Name's sake.
And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
And many false prophets shall rise, and shall decieve many.
And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. (1)

III. CLOSING THOUGHT:
May GOD ALMIGHTY have mercy upon this Nation is my earnest prayer in the NAME of our SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST, Amen!With All Due Respect,
