 [T]he law is ignored and justice is never upheld. For the wicked surround the righteous; therefore, justice comes out perverted. (Habakkuk 1:4) November 19, 2013, was the 150th anniversary of President Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. The speech has become iconic. On June 1, 1865, Senator Charles Sumner described the Gettysburg Address as a “monumental act” […]

Section 1. All legislative authority resides in Almighty God and is, therefore, vested in Almighty God by Almighty God. Isaiah 33:22 and James 4:121 declare Yahweh2 is the exclusive legislator.
