The truth is found where men are free to pursue it! President Franklin D. Roosevelt (1933-1945)

Gun Control in America?
“To conquer a nation you first must disarm it’s citizens!” Adolf Hitler 1933. Comment: Our Founding Father’s had the God given wisdom to write our Constitution to arm our citizens to prevent a government takeover of them! The Democratic Party and the left are desperately trying to make laws that would disarm us! Why? Are they getting their advice from Hitler? No government can take complete control of a people if the masses are armed! The cost would be too great for a takeover! I am thankful to be born in America and live under our Constitution!

Independence Day July 4th, 2017
Without moral and intellectual independence there is no anchor for national independence! David Ben-Gurion Comment: When any government decides what is moral and what and how we should think we will become dependent on it. God through His scriptures has already decided what is moral and what is not! Any government that will last has to hold these values close to itself and the people they serve! Political correctness or policed thoughts are contrary to our Constitution and our Founding Father’s framework for our government. We thank every American who is or has served in our military and have made the sacrifices to preserve our Union! We thank our law enforcement officers for protecting us from anarchy and preserving law and order in our land! To our clergy who everyday remind us that without the Blessings of God we will fail. To you and everyday citizens who work and raise their families and have made America great! God Bless America! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Trinity and the Soul Genesis 1:27
But these three, though they be distinct from one another, are, however said to be one, because they exist substantially in the soul. Peter Lombard (1096-1160) Comment: His writings influenced Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas, William of Ockham, Gabriel Beil, Martin Luther, John Calvin and Pope Alexander III. His tomb is Paris some 700 years later was destroyed during the French Revolution! Remember the French Revolution tried to de-Christianize France even by creating a special calendar (French Revolution Calendar), removing Christian Holidays and religious figures! The calendar lasted 12 years about as long as Hitler’s rein! An attempt was made to remove all religious influences from the culture! Prominent atheist were behind this effort much like today in America. The French Revolution and the American Revolution were very different with different outcomes! The American Revolution established the free exercise of religion with the trinity of three branches of government with Biblical values woven into our Constitution! The French Revolution was a rebellion to remove all elements of religion from their culture! The French Enlightenment was the darkest hour in French history! The light of any culture is Christ and to try to remove him politically, judicially, militarily and socially reaps disaster for any culture! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Groundwork for our U.S. Constitution!
This Bible is for the government of the people, by the people and for the people! John Wycliffe (1320-1384) He is most notably known as the Morning Star of the Reformation! He translated the Bible from Latin to English! He rejected the Doctrine of Transubstantiation! He sacrificed his life fighting for the common man and the abuses of the Clergy! Printing Bibles in English and getting them into the hands of the common man was a threat to the aristocracy! Thanks to John Wycliffe we have our English Bibles today! The principalities and powers of darkness declared John a heretic and dug up his corpse and burned it and scattered the ashes into the River Swift that flows through Butterworth England!
Covenant! Genesis 17:8
We often separate the Old and New Covenant in our Theology! However the word Covenant is the same word used in both the Old and New Testament! There is only one word used in the Greek for Covenant in the New Testament! So the only thing that separates them is time! It is the passage of time that proves the Covenant! The passage of times confirms the Covenant to the Jews, Israel and to the Gentiles! Four thousand years later from Abraham we have the nation of Israel. The word Constitution is another word for Covenant! Our U.S. Constitution is a Biblical document! Remember a Covenant is conditional. Whosoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved! Whosoever believeth in me shall not perish but have everlasting life! Here are some words that describe Covenant: determination, stipulation, league, treaty, alliance, constitution and a sacrifice! It was sealed by passing between the divided parts of a sacrifice! It is a divisor will, to put apart! Jesus will one day separate the sheep from the goats! We see in Genesis 15:18 that God promised much more land to the Jews than Canaan. However the Covenant is conditional and the Jews broke the Covenant! Captivity was their lot when they did this! A Covenant is a contract accompanied by signs, a sacrifice and a solemn oath which sealed the relationship with promises of Blessings for obedience and cursing’s for disobedience! Jesus was obedient even to death on a Cross! The Jews rejected human sacrifice! That is what the Heathen did! Therefore their Messiah could not be human! This is the challenge Jesus met in 1st Century Palestine! They were puzzled? How could Jesus do miracles that only God could do yet He appeared human? They understood God created humans yet their sacrifice could not be human! Their concept of God was He would come down as a knight in shining armor riding a white horse and destroy the Roman government! What they were really envisioning was Jesus second coming! What Jesus was trying to tell them is that He was God! A human telling them He was God was blasphemous to them! The Jews could not put all this together in their minds? God created human beings who sinned against Him and then He sacrificed Himself for them? This defied their understanding so they Crucified Him! They executed the sacrifice! What was missing was Faith! By Faith Abraham believed God! Counted as righteousness! Without Faith it is impossible to please God! We know He loves us! We will never know everything about God because then we could control Him! Could you imagine what the Judas Iscariot’s of this world would do with that! A jet aircraft flies through the air at hundreds of miles per hour! It does not think about it’s designer but simply does what it is designed to do! We are designed to worship God! When we do that in Faith we are fulfilled and find purpose in Him! Happy Easter! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Farewell Address 1796
Of all the dispositions and habits which lend to political prosperity, Religion and morality are indispensable supports! George Washington Comment: Like many republicans of the founding era, Washington thought religion was indispensable to cultivating the civil virtues essential to maintain social and political order in a regime of self-government. The Bible was his most quoted literary text in all of his writings! The founding Father’s did their best to lay a foundation so that God would never say farewell to America! They incorporated Biblical absolutes in the U.S Constitution to try to protect the new republic from the challenges for future generations and provide liberty and justice for all.

God Renders Legal Decision! 1 Chronicles 15:13
“For because you did it not at the first, the Lord our God made a breach upon us, for we sought Him not after the due order.” Two Hebrew words stand out in this scripture written thousands of years ago! The word “first”, head or first in rank. The words “due order”, means a legal decision given by God to be followed by the people! What is really interesting is the Hebrew word is another Hebrew root word for the word “due order.” The Strong’s Number is 8199. Here is the Hebrew definition of the word; “this word encompasses all the facets of government including executive, legislative and judicial branches of government.” This sounds like our United States Constitution! Most Americans do not get the connection between our Bible and the Constitution! Our Constitution is a Biblical document! Remember the Jewish Temple and the Mount was the seat of all religious and government rule to the Jewish culture! Law cases were tried there! Laws were written there! Executive actions to enforce the law were done from there! Just as our God is a Trinity so is our government with three branches! The pattern for our Constitution was implemented after the Bible to give people liberty and Justice for all. The question that begs to be asked is why did God have to render a legal decision? We have broken His laws through sin! God’s legal decision to punish sin was accomplished by His Son on Calvary! God has given His Son Jesus Christ the responsibility to judge the living and the dead! Your judge could become your Savior if you choose Him? Otherwise Christ will be your judge forever! Which is it? Do not play the lottery with God! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
What Makes America Great?
I sought for her greatness and genius of America in her commodius harbors and ample rivers and it was not there? In her fertile fields and boundless forests but it was not there? In her rich mines and her vast world commerce and it was not there? In her Democratic congress and her matchless Constitution and it was not there? Not until i went into the churches of America and heard her pulpits aflame with righteousness did i understand the secret of her genius and power! America is great because she is good and if America ever ceases to be good, she will cease to be great! Alexis De Tocqueville Comment by Eric Metaxas: For Alex it is inescapable; The secret to American freedom is American virtue! Comment: This material was used from a Hal Lindsey Report. Thankyou.

Why is America a Christian Nation?
We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions, unbridled by morality and religion, avarice, ambition, revenge, and licentiousness and would break our strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net! Our United States Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people! It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other! President John Adams Comment: The path to tyranny begins when people show contempt for morality and religion and throw off the values that grounded us in the work and life of Jesus Christ! So why is America a Christian nation? Because the alternative is tyranny! David Wood
