In the first two paragraphs in which
lays the vital pivotal or fulcrum point of the 1776 “birth certificate”
of the United States of America, the Declaration of Independence, the
Person of GOD Is evoked when the Founding Fathers noted HIM as
“…nature’s GOD…” and “…endowed by their Creator…”; and in closing
“…appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world…”; with a firm reliance on
the protection of Divine Providence, proclaims to the world the ultimate
authority over the Ordu Norvus Seclorom – New Order of the Ages nation.
The late US President, Abraham Lincoln
clearly understood the full meaning of prefacing The LORD at the head of
the new nation’s birth in the Declaration of Independence by his
crowning statement in the Gettysburg address when he says, “…that this
nation, under GOD, shall have a new birth of freedom…”
Mr. Lincoln clearly understood, the
sacred task and ramifications for such a nation “under GOD” and
“conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are
created equal” as stipulated in the Declaration of Independence.
In fact, Lincoln
patterned much of his justification for ending the hypocritical stain of
slavery on the United States after The US President, Thomas Jefferson
on of his mentors…

It was Thomas Jefferson who when
considering slavery in the United States and GOD disdain of it, the
author of the Declaration of Independence wrote in a January 4,1786 letter ot
George Washington, Jefferson said of slavery in the United States,
“God
who gave us life gave us liberty. Can the liberties of a nation be
secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the
gift of God? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that
God is just, that his justice cannot sleep forever. Commerce
between master and slave is despotism.
Nothing is more certainly written
in the book of fate than these people are to be free. Establish the law
for educating the common people. This it is the business of the state to
effect and on a general plan.”
The Civil War: Divine
Providential Chastisement For Slavery
Though the United States
didn’t strike blow of the original chattel slavery-race “wound”, but rather inherited
from the British Crown in 1776, it nonetheless became responsible and
ultimately curable for continued existence.
The advent of Abraham Lincoln,
brought about that final Divine Plan to free America from the wound of
slavery. Note the lyrics of the Unions Army’s battle hym of the
Republic.
"Mine eyes have
seen the glory of the coming of the Lord:
He is trampling
out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the
fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword:
His truth is
marching on"
Evidently, the Creator GOD who providentially brought about this “new nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal”, has everything to do with the affairs of the United States of America and it’s unfinished business of ensuring the Emancipated, descendant children of the chattel slaves, their full citizenship “as is enjoyed by White citizens”
according to the 14th Amendment.
Even as HIS retribution came in the form of the Civil War, is almost sure that if the unfinished work for which so many gave their lives in that Divine conflagration, there will be another such judgment, i.e. “…a rude awakening”
The HEAL America Campaign calls for the
honest confession of faults one to another followed by praying to GOD
for one another as a medicine for the healing of the slave wound and
subsequent ethno-racial tensions in the nation. (James 5:16)
“If my which are
called by My Name, will humble themselves and cease their wicket ways, I
Will hear from Heaven and Heal their land” and “The Sun of
Justice-Righteousness will arise with Healing in His Wings”
(Holy Hebrew
Scriptures)
