Has America forgotten why our nation has become the greatest nation on earth?

When the founders set forth the principles that would govern our nation, they were convinced those principles were based upon the principles taught in God’s word. Even Benjamin Franklin believed these principles came from God’s word.

We have been blessed because our nation was founded upon God’s principles. So why has our nation rejected some of those great principles? I believe we live in an age like the times recorded in the last chapter of Judges 21:25, when God’s people rejected God’s commandments and did what was right in their own eyes.

In the upcoming election, we have a choice, whether we will uphold the principles set down by our forefathers or do as God’s people did in the days of the Judges.

I want to ask you fellow Americans whether you think our forefathers would have approved of abortion. There is no question in my mind; they would have rejected it in no uncertain terms, yet, the Supreme Court of our land has declared that it is not wrong to kill unborn babies.

Our two presidential candidates made it clear where they stand, one approves of abortion and the other rejects it.

Have we forgotten so soon what Hitler did to the Jews? The sanctity of life was rejected by Hitler. Let us not be deceived who we should vote for.
