March 2026This year, America will celebrate 250 years as a nation. America went through the agricultural age, the Industrial Revolution, and into the electronic age. After gaining our freedom from the most powerful empire on earth, we survived the War of 1812 and the British invasion of Washington, D.C. We survived a civil war that tore our nation in half, costing 850,000 plus American lives, north and south. We survived a stock market crash and a great depression.
Will America survive a devalued currency, massive national debt, moral decay, and our own hubris to make it to our 500th birthday?
It is hubris that has many in elected office believing they can keep deficit spending indefinitely, and America will never, ever undergo hyperinflation, economic collapse, and martial law. They believe the laws of economics somehow stop at America’s borders.
It is hubris to believe we can stand in defiance to God, allowing our nation to become “…the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.” Revelation 18: 2. The promotion – and enabling – of the Alphabet Soup People’s (LGBTQIA) agenda, pornography, the corruption of children’s innocence in the public schools, the aborting of the innocents, the decline of the church’s voice and influence being supplanted by Hollywood’s obscene movies and amoral television programs.
It is hubris to believe that God won’t allow America to fall because He needs our nation to proclaim His Word. America has been blessed with much, and we have done much good in the world, including liberating millions from tyranny and opposing Godless communism. It pains me to say we have also rebelled much. As Thomas Jefferson said, “Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just: that His justice cannot sleep forever.”
It is hubris to believe we can allow government bureaucracy to grow and intrude into our daily lives at the state and local levels, and yet liberty won’t yield, and we’ll remain just as free.
And while the Founding Fathers were sinful men who were far from perfect, it is hubris for us in this modern age to believe we can stray from their Constitution framework of checks and balances, Article 1: Section 8 limits, rule of law, a republic not a democracy, to think we know better what the founders intended than they did…and still survive.
If our civilization is to long endure, here are just some of the things we and future generations need to do long term. The first point is the most important • A national repentance to Jesus Christ and a return to God’s plan for us. In Jonah 3: 1-10 the people of Nineveh heeded Jonah’s warning of God’s impending judgment, a fast was proclaimed, the people put on sackcloth and called out to God. When God saw the Ninevites turn from their evil ways, He relented in their destruction.
• We are reminded in 2 Chronicles 7:14 that if we call on Him in humility “…and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
• No more deficit spending. We must pay off any debt we owe to countries not friendly to the US, like China, so they don’t have leverage over us. All our budgets must be in balance, we cannot incur more debt, and any surplus revenue must go toward debt payments.
• A common language. Our official language is English. Our government documents down to the local level must be in English, and all the children must learn English.
• A shared culture, built on individual rights, the rule of law (everyone equal under the law), rugged individualism, and personal responsibility.
• The welfare state must end. Too many people are now dependent on the government for daily bread, many of whom are physically and mentally capable to work but won’t. “But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.” 1 Timothy 5: 8.
• The federal government must be confined to Article 1: Section 8. As James Madison said in Federalist 45, 1788, “The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite.”
• We must speak out against any reference to America being a democracy. We are a republic. Both have similarities, but democracy is mob rule, and a republic is the rule of law.
• We teach in all schools, public and private, the same history, the good and, yes, the bad history. It’s like branding. Each fast-food restaurant has the same recipes, and their food will taste the same no matter which of their restaurants you go to. What we teach the children must be the same no matter which state they move to.
• Children must be disciplined so they don’t grow up without restraint and with feelings of entitlement. No more teaching moral relativism or woke ideologies, but moral absolutes of right and wrong.
• Everyone must be equal under the law. Police must be allowed to enforce ordinances and laws to defend individual rights and lives. Those advocating and using violence and political intimidation must understand that if they are not peaceful and civil, they will be arrested and prosecuted.
• We must have a currency backed by metals, not a fiat currency, and the Federal Reserve and any treaty with any nation that compromises our sovereignty must be ended.
Friends, it is true that no civilization is forever; anything created by man fails eventually, even America. I do, at times, think about the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD. I often wonder if Roman soldiers, shopkeepers, and homemakers in the West that year knew their end was near. The Western Empire lasted 449 years. If we continue to allow the dismantling of the framework the Founders established, will America?
