The Founding Fathers Called for Morality: full transcript and answers

▶ 0:00 We’re going to look again at the declaration of independence. Written by thomas Jefferson that they said was not a Christian man. Revised by ben Franklin and revised by Adams and then revised by the congress and approved by congress July the 4th, 1776. First paragraph he’s going to make three statements. Number one when in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve separate. The political bans which have connected them with another in this first statement they’re saying britain we’re leaving you we’re separating from your government we’re going to create our own second statement and to assume among the powers of earth the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and nature’s God entitle them second statement you’re saying that the American colonies are equal with all other nations of the world equal with england and their basin their separation their authority to separate on the laws of nature and nature’s God.

▶ 1:20 Who. Entitles them gives them the right to do it gives them the authority to do it first use of God in the declaration of independence first use of God third statement a decent. Respect to the opinions of mankind. Requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation third statement is they’re going to give a list of reasons why they are leaving the government of england and starting their own government. Now. We must ask ourselves what are the laws of nature and nature’s God what is Jefferson talking about.

▶ 2:14 Well I did a little research. Trying to find where this term was used back in the old days and I found it started in the 1600s and was used for over a hundred years by high officials in government and experts in law and so forth here is one Lord bowling broke 1678 through 1751. Wrote you will find that it is the modest. Not the presumptuous arrogant proud inquirer. Who makes a real and safe progress in this the discovery of divine truths ah. Here are two people he’s mentioning and he says one of them progresses in finding divine truth and then he explains who it is one who follows nature and nature’s God and then he says the definition of nature and nature’s God that is and math is is an equal sign all right.

▶ 3:33 One who follows nature and nature’s God equals he who follows God in his works and in his word in other words it’s the Bible and the Jesus of the Bible it’s divine law that they are talking about. To prove it further. That the laws of nature and nature’s God is God in the Bible we’re going to take a look at william Blackstone. The famous commentaries on the laws of england he lived between 1723 and 17 and 80. And he was required reading for all students in America as well as in most european nations.

▶ 4:26 And this is what he says. When the supreme being formed the universe wow. And created matter out of nothing he established certain laws. The progress of plants from seed to root to seed again the method of animal nutrition digestion and secretion and all the branches of vital economy. Are not left to chance. But guided by the unerring rules laid down by the creator the Bible terminology God the creator God the supreme being God the he but they are guided.

▶ 5:19 By unerring rules no mistakes. These laws that God put in order for plants to grow and reproduce for animals they have no errors in him and the economy. As a man depends absolutely upon his maker for everything it is necessary that he should in all points conform to his maker’s will this will of his maker is called the law of nature the law of nature. Is doing the will of God. They taught this thomas Jefferson learned it for as God when he created matter when he created man this law of nature dictated.

▶ 6:17 By God himself nature’s God. Now folks these people that say that this nation was not born and birthed and started on the Bible and Christian values. This just absolutely refutes everything that they try to tear down about our founding fathers quoting we needed God and we needed Bible morals to have a great nation as well as the declaration of independence clearly stating that they base their separation the authority to separate they based it on Jesus Christ the God of the Bible and his word the scriptures very powerful the Bible says for lack of knowledge my people are destroyed.

▶ 7:11 And it’s sad that we lack this knowledge the unanimous declaration of independence July the 4th, 1776 second paragraph we hold these truths to be self-evident. Okay. Anybody these are just common sense anybody knows that these are truths. So we asked ourselves the question what truths are self-evident. Number one all men are created equal. Number two that they are endowed provided by their creator with certain unchangeable unalienable rights among these are life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Now we have the second use of the word God.

▶ 8:07 In the declaration of independence second time. Creator. Endowed by their creator and we just read to you who they believed created everything and created mankind. With certain unchangeable rights now. We know that the indian the african the baby in the womb we know that a boy and a girl. Uh and the cripples. In the blind the lame they’re created by God they all have equal rights the equal rights go to the created by God. Okay the tories who were people loyal to the english government.

▶ 9:02 They didn’t want a new government and some of them fought against the patriots the American colonists and some of them just were citizens that didn’t have any problem with the england english government. They weren’t born with that government position. They chose that government position. Okay. And so they didn’t have equal rights when they fought against the patriots if they did the patriots had a right to defend themselves. And fight back. Also. Homosexuals. That is a choice same-sex is a choice it weren’t created that’s why the homosexual groups are trying to say they were created the God they don’t believe in they say created them if you don’t believe in God why do you use him to say you were created you can’t change the truth is they can change it is a decision they make it is a choice they make.

▶ 10:13 Just like the thief he wasn’t born to be a thief he chose to be a thief okay abusers of alcohol drugs and uh. Other things that’s a choice they make so they don’t have equal rights. People that God created whether they are blacks white asians polynesians or whatever they are human beings they have equal rights but choices do not have equal rights it’s right here and the declaration of independence folks very clear. Now they have the right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness liberty is the right to choose the right to think the right to act but you don’t have the right to think wrong to act wrong and choose wrong when it hurts people hurt your nation and hurt yourself.

▶ 11:18 Equal rights is to those things God created. And they got it in the declaration of independence because that was the prominent thinking of that time truth number three to secure these rights governments are instituted among men and their just powers. Not unjust powers government was not created by God as our declaration said for unjust government unjust powers that was created for just truth honest good government. Good authority from the consent of the government of the consent of the people Americans must remember that our government.

▶ 12:11 Only has authority that we give it and right now they have taken on a lot of authority in Washington D.C. that Americans have not given and Americans don’t know enough to rise up and stand against this corruption. And the ones who do know aren’t doing anything about it. Number four the fourth truth that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends life liberty the pursuit of happiness. Equality. It is the right of the people to alter or abolish it. A better word it is the duty of the people to alter or abolish it and to institute a new government even in the constitution it says that we can bring our grievances.

▶ 13:13 To our government leaders. And they’re supposed to hear us it’s just Americans aren’t uniting together to bring our grievances and our disagreements with this present government and so they’re just doing what they want freely don’t ever forget that the laws of nature and nature’s God are the laws of God. And the Jesus of the Bible. The colonies though didn’t give all created men. Life liberty and happiness. Nor equality. As they in this declaration of independence. Acquired from britain. They did not give all created men the things they were asking for.

▶ 14:07 The indians. Had no constitutional rights. Their land was taken from them indian lands for sale lands in the West. Took their land and sold it to Americans this is a picture of the Trail of Tearss where the indians were taken off of their land in the south and driven out into oklahoma territory. Many died and a lot of these indians had accepted Christ they lived in houses like whites lived in they accepted the government of the whites they had their own constitution their own form of government and yet because there was gold on their land and the people in the south wanted their land they.

▶ 15:01 Government. And here the supreme court stood they made a right decision for once they said the supreme court said these indians have a right to stay there. President Jackson. Would not listen. To the law of the land nor the decision of the supreme court and remove them anyway. The government does not always stand behind the constitution. And follow the truth behind and the right laws behind the constitution and so many indians died. Just on the way to oklahoma. Mistreated them didn’t give them the equal rights that they were asking from britain. The slaves.

▶ 15:55 Am I not a man. That was the abolitionist. Cartoon and logo to free the slaves they are a man they are a human being. And yet our American government. Did not give them life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The tories. I found this drawing this they got this guy they’re going to tar and feather him they got him yanked up in the air he’s a tory and remember not all tories were bad they just had a different belief. System of government. They didn’t oppose anybody they weren’t killing anybody they just thought it was right to stay with england they like that monarch government and yet they did not give them.

▶ 16:54 The freedom and the liberty to believe what they wanted to believe and tories were driven out and then after the revolutionary war they were exiled to canada a lot most of them went to canada some back to britain and some other areas. So here’s three people. That our founding fathers did not give. Equal rights to. Also. We found last week that some counties resisted we find in a revolutionary war that some counties resisted here’s Virginia almost 50 counties in Virginia would not secede and go to the south. They formed their own government through election.

▶ 17:47 And they became another state. And the united states called West Virginia. Because they said no we don’t believe what the rest of the virginians believe we believe that slavery is wrong and we are going to stick with the union. Also you got delaware and maryland who were slave states. And they didn’t join the south we come to the conclusion that Americans have a constitutional right to locally govern themselves. And we need to remember that that even though we may be in a nation where. Corruption becomes the law of the day that we have a right to live in a county or live in a state where corruption is not the law of the day.

▶ 18:47 Amen we can still stay in the union. And be our own people now today in America things are similar instead of tories we got the democratic party. Who believes in a socialist government and they’re saying it clearly now I’m not just I don’t have to dream this up anymore and say the signs are there they’re just flat out calling themselves socialists and uh uh. Then you have the republicans. Who are like the patriots republicans most of them believe in a government by a republic which our nation was founded on our nation was founded as a republic a republic is government.

▶ 19:42 That picks people to represent them and carry out what those people want done in government okay. Yes it’s not a democracy a democracy is the rule of the majority a republic is not and that’s why you can have local areas where you can determine your own lifestyle and standards. Now today as you know both of these groups lie to us. They attack each other. They blame each other the Democrats are still blaming bush. After seven years I mean when do they take accountability for their bad decisions. They ridicule one another mock one another.

▶ 20:38 And I submit to you when you hear these guys talk throw out all the lies throw out all the mocking throw out all the blaming and what substance are you going to have. With a lot of these people there’s nothing left oh the only good at making fun of the opposite side mocking them lying they’re only good at it. Now the Democrats are 52 percent liberals. Socialists. The republicans are 30 percent moderates which are really liberals in a republican. Identity and then you got the rhinos. Who say they’re republican and then they vote in any way they want.

▶ 21:33 And so we got a problem on our hands just like in the early part of America we got a problem on our hands. Slaves. Are people that are dependent on welfare. Okay. People that are dependent on substance alcohol drugs prescription drugs illegal drugs they’re dependent on something that’s destroying them. Sex. I mean sex in America the way everything on tv and everything reads I mean you know women have to get breast implants now and and uh and uh artificial eyelashes artificial eyebrows uh whatever trying to line up to some kind of sexual thing that America has produced okay they started themselves to death trying to be thin enough and we’re so addicted to and instead of just sex between a man and a woman and in a marriage.

▶ 22:41 We got sexual areas everywhere. And the and the direction they’re heading is sex with 12 year olds okay and even eight-year-olds there’s a group that says six by eight or it’s too late and so we become slaves of the sexual movement remember the sexual revolution back there see before that there was only two main sexually transmitted diseases now there’s over 30. And no politician hits these issues none. 50 percent of people that die in traffic accidents are on drugs now. Another 50 percent that die in traffic accidents. Are on alcohol so you got almost a hundred percent of traffic deaths related to alcohol and drugs and a lot of the drugs are prescription they’re getting them legally.

▶ 23:44 And no one’s addressing these things. Over 40 percent of children are born to unwed mothers they call them single parents but back in my day they call them unwed mothers. And they’re being raised by one single parent and they’re a major cause of an advancing crime drug and alcohol abuse sexual permissiveness it is a source of a major increase of immorality in America and yet none of these politicians yet have said one word about it you don’t have to be kidnapped to be a slave you can just fall for the propaganda. Bad choice. Indians. Are like a group whose speech and convictions are restricted you can’t find a more prominent group in America whose speech and convictions are restricted and censored than Christians.

▶ 24:49 They are not a minority in America they are a majority in America and yet they’re told to shut up. Their speech is restricted. The Bible is restricted prayer is restricted the name of Jesus is restricted the morals are laughed at mocked at. And the religion of secular humanism. And false evolution science have no restrictions. If secular means you don’t believe in anything spiritual nothing divine no God or anything so the secularists have a free reign in America they can say anything they want find out they were wrong and then change like I’ve showed you before they used to believe there was 11 inches of dust on the moon and they made the probe to go in with long skinny legs so it would go into that dust well there wasn’t that dust on the moon so all they did was go back and recalculate.

▶ 25:53 To come up with a figure that allowed for the dust that was there it’s not nice and convenient. You see but you let a Christian say something wrong that’s it the supreme court. Approved. Of bad laws then and now they said the black man was not a human being he was just simply property and did not have any of these equal rights. But let me read to you out of article 3 section 2 of the constitution you need to read the constitution about once a year to keep your mind alert. To what our government really is. Article 3 section 2 the supreme court shall have appellate. Jurisdiction in other words they can hear the causes of lower courts.

▶ 26:51 Both as to law and fact the supreme court has to use facts the supreme court has to use law the supreme court gave us no facts for saying. That same-sex marriage was legal in him at no facts you read it you read their and they had no facts they had no law to base that on it was just their opinion. That’s it okay now listen to this the supreme court shall have appellate jurisdiction. They can hear cases. And decide as to law in fact with such exceptions. Such exceptions ah. And under such regulations. Oh all of their decisions is under the exception and the regulation as the congress shall make congress decides if the supreme court is correct or not they are the final word and word do you see allah from congress that says a marriage can be between a man and a man and a woman and a woman there isn’t one where do you see a law that evolution should be taught in our schools and not creation there isn’t one.

▶ 28:14 See where do you see in the law that you cannot use the name of Jesus as a chaplain in the army or in public places there isn’t a law it is just a supreme court decision and congress refuses to regulate it and make exceptions to the truth themselves well if we don’t get some knowledge in us we’re going to lose this nation and we just read that we have the right to alter a bad government and we have a chance to still alter it okay without getting into a war and so forth. For lack of knowledge my people are destroyed. Now. We’ll get to the Bible. There are two spiritual governments in the Bible Matthew 12:26 of Satan cast out Satan.

▶ 29:09 He is divided against himself how then shall his kingdom stand so Satan has a kingdom kingdom of darkness that’s called in the Bible a kingdom is a area that a king rules over at a monarch. A tyrant Colossians 1:13 God has delivered us from the power of darkness the kingdom of Satan and has translated us into the kingdom of his dear son you see we may have once been under the bad laws of Satan but when we come to Christ he transports us into his kingdom of righteousness and truth and justice. There’s the Bible is not complex. And these historians back there these historical people I should say both of these guys that I quoted were high officials and england’s uh government system very high officials very widely looked up to for answers.

▶ 30:17 Now there are only two. Classes of people. Two ways and two choices it’s not complex at all. We’re going to show you there’s only two classes of people. Two ways and two choices Matthew 13:38 the good seed are the children of the kingdom okay see why are the good seed the children of the kingdom because the kingdom of God is all about being good behaving good speaking good right and truth you see the tares are the children of the wicked one the evil one why are they children of that because they do evil they do harmful things.

▶ 31:06 John 8:44 you are of your father the Devil and the lusts of your father you will do okay now he takes it from the other perspective and stolen instead of calling them children of the wicked one he caused the wicked one their father which makes them they’re his children and they are that because of their behavior of how they behave and then he gets more defined Acts 13:10 you child of the Devil enemy of all righteousness you see they can’t just do their sins and do their wicked things independently and privately they got to opposed. All righteousness. Isn’t that what we got in America today an opposition to righteousness and truth yes you see they just don’t get in the closet and stay there and do their thing in darkness they come out and want to impose their wickedness on everybody else they want to be accepted as.

▶ 32:12 Being right because they believe it’s right it’s called the new tolerance in our generation. You will not cease to pervert distort and corrupt the right ways of the Lord. You say. They attack righteousness they distort and they corrupt what is right. And of course the second people are they that follow what is right. Matthew 7:13. Wide is the gate and broad is the way leading to destruction. Many go in by it you see there’s two ways here this way is a way of destruction. Narrow is the gate and difficult is the way leading to life and few find it.

▶ 33:08 See there’s two ways there’s two classes of people there’s the high class and the low class. The high class does right the low class does evil there are two ways the right way and the wrong way. You choose right or you choose wrong. And mainly Americans choose wrong because they just read and they don’t research. The facts behind what they’re reading people get on the internet and believe anything they read on the internet you’ve got to go you’ve got to take time to get the root the source and the purpose of people who are talking. And it’s got to be facts there are two choices. Either going to make a wise choice or you’re going to make a foolish choice and you say well.

▶ 34:08 I’m in the middle my choice. Your choice if it doesn’t line up to the Bible is a wrong choice no matter how strongly you believe it so I submit to you this morning. That the founding fathers called for Bible morality and moral mutiny I submit to you that they based their rebellion on the laws of nature and nature’s God who we showed you plainly was Jesus Christ the God of the Bible and the laws of the Bible that America wants censored today basically the only book in America that they’re censoring.
