[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 is iconic, but is it Biblical? Under God …—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth […]

 [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 judicial authority resides in Almighty God and is, therefore, vested in Almighty God by Almighty God. Isaiah 33:221 declares Yahweh2 is King, Lawgiver, and Judge. His sovereignty is inherent in and over all three branches of government. Consequently, any civil judgment not congruent with His perfect law and altogether righteous judgments3 is […]

With the Preamble, Article 1, and Article 2 “completed,” let us consider Article 3. As with the Preamble and first two Articles, I’ll submit my proposal in a week or two. In the meantime, I am requesting Article 3 proposals from our readers: If you were asked to be a delegate to a constitutional convention […]

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. There are no others. Anyone who claims the title of legislator (particularly when his “laws”—whether commandments, statutes, or judgments—are inconsonant with Yahweh’s) is a usurper […]

All executive authority resides in Almighty God and is, therefore, vested in Almighty God by Almighty God. Isaiah 33:221 declares Yahweh2 is King. He has never abdicated His throne.3 He is as much King now as He was at creation and at the time Isaiah affirmed His sovereignty. As perpetual King, the kingdom He rules […]

After “completing” the Preamble, for a future generation of our posterity to perhaps use as a guide for doing it right(eous) the next time, I wasn’t necessarily intending to immediately proceed to articles for a future constitution. However, in addition to encouragement from others, this seems to be where the Lord is leading. I proceed […]

We the people of Almighty God—known Biblically by His memorial name Yahweh,1 the one and only Sovereign over all creation2—humbly submit ourselves as individuals, families, churches, and communities to His rule3 as Judge, Lawgiver, and King.4 Because all power and authority resides with Him,5 we acknowledge that liberty, justice, domestic tranquility, and general welfare for […]
