Just before the list of grievances in the Declaration of Independence, this is written: “The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.”
Today we could easily substitute “the present President of the United States” for “the present King.” During his short “history” of 100 days in office, this Administration’s goal appears to be “the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.”
Like the signers of the Declaration, we must be bold and courageous in voicing our concerns to our elected officials. If each and every one of us will call, write, and/or email the President, our two Senators, and our Representative every time they try to pass another law restricting our freedom, it’s true that we may not be able to stop them, but they will know without a doubt how many of their constituents disagree with them.
If we aren’t willing to be part of the process and stand courageously for the Lord and for this nation that He has blessed us with, then we shouldn’t be surprised if evil men take away our lives, our liberty, and our pursuit of happiness.
“All that is necessary for evil to triumph, is for good men to do nothing.” --Edmund Burke
