Was a day when America saw first hand the devastating aftermath of terrorism. We united together as one nation to heal and combat such a threat. That day will not be forgotten and neither should the days afterward. Teach your kids of that day and remind them liberty isn't free. The cost is often weighed in blood, sweat, and tears so that our nation can live in peace, safety, and without fear. The American flag was raised in the midst of the Twin Tower destruction as if to remind us that throughout the centuries rather it be the bombardment of Fort McHenry by British ships in the war of 1812. The same very battle that inspired the poem called the Star-Spangled Banner. Or the United States Marines raising the U.S. flag atop Mount Suribachi during the Battle of Iwo Jima in the final stages of the Pacific War in 1945. Each event out of many told the world and the American people we will not be defeated and that life, liberty, and prosperity were worth defending and promoting around the world. One nation under God was once by majority what the nation ran to when the enemy was at the gate.

Today we see this same flag trampled and burned. Not by our foreign enemies but by our own citizens who have adopted foreign ideologies and foreign worldviews. The threat is just as important as it was in 1812, 1945, and 2001. The only difference is that the enemy has infiltrated our media and education. Using the young to fight for their cause. Americans must decide can we survive the path of Godlessness? Has pushing God away helped or only hurt our nation? Pastors being threatened with jail time just for meeting. China? No, America right in the state of California. Millions of children are murdered in the womb each year. In 2020 we kill a known sadistic terrorist and yet Hollywood and the media act like he was a decent human being. Our history has been hijacked by liberal revisionism to create anti-Americans. Just about anyone who has visited or lived anywhere else in the world will tell you that there is nowhere else better than America. As evident to the millions who want to enter America from around the world. All seeking the American dream that was perpetrated by the founders of this nation. Religious freedom is what brought the Pilgrims to America. The right of conscience and free speech are blessings that so many around the world cannot even comprehend such freedoms. We must decide will we raise our flag again? Unite to defeat the propaganda who wishes to divide us? To understand of course we may disagree on certain things but that disagreement isn't worth destroying this great country. We must decide will we return to God or further rebel.
“If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.” -Ronald Reagan
Galatians 5:1
New International Version
5 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
Christianity set the foundation for the American dream and for the rights that no other country in the 1700s had. It paved the way for liberty with every religion, race, and gender. America fought many wars for the cause of liberty either to protect or promote it in the Revolution, the Barbary Wars, the War of 1812, the many different Indian wars ( yes Indian tribes fought with the US against hostile Indian tribes) WW1, WW2, Korea, Vietnam, Communist insurgency of Thailand, the Cold War, Dominican Civil war, Cambodian civil war ( we lost and it led to the Cambodian genocide) just to name a few.
We must stand firm and not return to the yoke of slavery that past tyrants held us in. Places like the Arlington cemetery are filled with the heroes who fought to establish or protect such freedom. A Christian nation we once were and a Christian nation we must be again. In Christ the Spirit of freedom will always be ignited.
