War Declared 3,000 Casualties Nearly 1,500 Fear Dead "White House Admits Sinking of One 'Old Battleship' and Destroyer in Pear Harbor"

This Newsletter will go out on the Fourth of July, 2010. It is in this celebration that people will be having a good time. From picnics to parades, fishing to bbq; everyone will be doing something on that day. Flags will be flown on some houses, and for many this will be a day to reflect on the day itself. For many others, they will give no thought as to it. They take for granted the blessings and go on with their lives anyway.

As I reflect on this nation and the cost in blood to maintain what we have today, I believe the true cost is lost. We fight wars today, and even when I was in the Navy, we fought then. It was Vietnam, and lots of good men and women lost their lives, were hurt, and more were disabled permanently. We were fighting communism they said and even then we were told if we did not stop them in ‘Nam’, they would take over all of Southeast Asia. Well, we pulled out, lost the war, and communism never took over the region. Yes communism took Vietnam, but today it looks more like a thriving democracy than anything else. I can’t help but ponder what happened! Where was the threat? Were we lied too? A lot of good people died on both sides and for what? Real Estate, a name, an ideal like communism, or what?

Today we are still at war. Obama has expanded the ‘Special Forces’ ability to chase Terrorists in many more nations. We are in Afghanistan, still, and in Iraq, still! People keep dying and we still fight on. No war has been called or declared, but we are at war just the same! As we fight and as our young people go to war for this nation of political hacks who push the war, our borders here at home are open and undefended. Our freedoms are being lost to socialism and the modern wave of democratic ideals are brought to us by a man from Kenya who just happens to be President. Still, we fight overseas and still at home we seem to be losing more freedoms daily.

Again, I can’t help but ponder what happened! I know the answer, it is called sin. A three letter word but for many in America they can’t spell it. Sin, you gotta be kidding? The brain goes numb, a puzzled look appears on the face, and they say its okay, God forgives. Or maybe they don’t believe in God. Yet, others still see God on an extended vacation. In all the tides of corruption, sin, disobedience to God, and a nation of filth prevails.

In the heat of the battle, during the winter and after, this nation struggled against a mighty giant. They fought.

George Washington gave general orders, and said the following in conjunction with those orders:
“[T]he hour is fast approaching, on which the Honor and Success of this army, and the safety of our bleeding Country depend. Remember officers and Soldiers, that you are Freemen, fighting for the blessings of Liberty — that slavery will be your portion, and that of your posterity, if you do not acquit yourselves like men.” –George Washington, General Orders, 1776

These men and women risked it all! They lived on the edge of disaster, but courage, hope, prayers, and belief in God, that the Providential Hand he would extend to grant them a nation free of Tyranny. Today, though, the very things our forefathers fought for, we are losing. Freedoms, the Constitution, and the Providential Hand of God who fed us and kept us for all those years, are all gone. In its place is a new breed of politicians who see a new path amidst the wave of the Fourth of July banners and flags. They see a new constitution, a new flag, a new national anthem, and a nation of many Gods. They have destroyed prayer in school, the bible’s authority, the holiness of the believer, and any hope that people may have in seeing a rebirth in Faith in God.

Now I don’t need to prove the above, I already have through countless hours of Radio shows, biblical research, indepth news, and watching the whole thing become unraveled before my eyes. I balance the news in one hand with the evidence of the destruction of America. In the other hand I hold up the bible and the judgment of God for Americans to see. As I weigh the two, the evidence mounts, America is fast losing grip on who she was and is today! The America I knew is gone. It is that same America that during World War Two, when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, my Grandfather who was the City Manager for Catalina and also worked as a Game Warden told my dad to take a gun and go down to the Wharf and shoot anything that falls out of the sky. They expected an invasion. But even that America is gone now. The one remaining few old soldiers would recognize.

In the course of the founding Fathers moving to bring in a new nation, Patriot Forefather John Adams wrote to his wife Abigail. The date was July 3, 1776 and John told her of their efforts to bring forth a ‘Declaration of Independence’.

John Adams wrote:
“Yesterday, the greatest question was decided, which ever was debated in America, and a greater, perhaps, never was or will be decided among men. You will see in a few days a Declaration setting forth the causes which have impelled us to this mighty revolution, and the reasons which will justify it in the sight of God and man. It ought to be commemorated as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shews, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations from one end of this Continent to the other from this time forward forever more. You will think me transported with Enthusiasm but I am not. I am well aware of the Toil and Blood and Treasure, that it will cost us to maintain this Declaration, and support and defend these States. Yet through all the Gloom I can see the Rays of ravishing Light and Glory. I can see that the End is more than worth all the Means. And that Posterity will triumph in that Day’s Transaction.”

Today I sound the death knell upon the tombs of those who have died for this nation. Shed blood, is the holy impartation to the ground we have stood on. There is no greater friend than to have that friend lay down their lives for you or me. Many have done so and even today, many others are even now dying in foreign lands for a cause that is New world order in scope and is not at all what our Forefathers intended. As they fight there, we are losing America here!

Leviticus 18:22  Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
23  Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.
24  Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you:
25  And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.
26  Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you:
27  (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled;)
28  That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you.

Leviticus 20:23  And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.

Deuteronomy 9:4  Speak not thou in thine heart, after that the LORD thy God hath cast them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness the LORD hath brought me in to possess this land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD doth drive them out from before thee

In closing let me say that the LORD God warned Israel not to do as those nations before them. Nations that the LORD God cast out! In the above scriptures, if you read them in their context closely, the listing of the sins that caused the nations to be cast out before Israel resembles the sins now currently being enjoyed in America. The warning is clear, beware oh thou foul wretch, for the sins that you boast in, will be the death of you!

They did abominable things. Fornication, homosexuality, immorality of all kinds, soothsaying, witchcraft, and much more. Saying that the ‘land would spue them out’, if they did the same things, Israel was warned by the very God who brought them out of bondage from Egypt. Today, this God is the God of the nations and his hand of judgment is upon this nation. He will requite blood for sin, and the judgment for rebellion.

Moreover, the voices today of Holiness Preachers are replaced by ‘prosperity gospels’, ‘social gospels’, and ‘self healing awareness seminars’. The church’s have no altar to mourn for sins, weep for lost souls, or seek God at length. People in the church are out for self, money, mammon, and a good time. The salt has lost its savor and the light is hid under a bushel. Sin is rampant in the church and holiness is out. The church is deceived, deluded, and along with America will see the hand of judgment severely upon her. While they wait for deliverance, the hand of judgment abides yet.

The warning is clear America! The bells that used to sound from hallowed fires of the Holy Ghost revival in the Churches now are silent. Those who warn of sin and judgment are mocked and ridiculed. Just as the Prophets before them, those who do warn are not listened too! It is time to heed the Word of God. It is time, for those who will listen, to seek the LORD, in mourning, weeping and wailing for the sins of the people. It is time, to seek the LORD that you may be hid in the Day of the LORDS Wrath!

For those who say this won’t happen, let this warning find you; “The Day of the Watchman Approaches”!

Micah 7:4  The best of them is as a brier: the most upright is sharper than a thorn hedge: the day of thy watchmen and thy visitation cometh; now shall be their perplexity.

In a Post Script, one older article I wrote, I had thought it lost. But I found it in an older database! I have had some ask for it when I spoke of it. It was written in June of 2006! It is called the “Second American Civil War and the coming Apocalypse”. You can find it at the link below!
