In the days of the judges of Israel, Israel had turned their backs repeatedly on the Law of Moses and the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Moses (Deut. 31:29, Judges 2:6-11). When they followed these absolutes of time and ETERNITY (which was almost NEVER) they were blessed and prospered by the hand of the Lord (Judges 4-5).
"The consequences of this lawless departure led to the break down of society and to the chastening hand of the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Moses"
During one particular time when Ehud - a godly man, deliverer and judge of the Lord - died, the righteous influence and moral restraint rapidly dissipated and lawlessness began to sweep throughout the land (Judges 4:1). The consequences of this lawless departure led to the break down of society and to the chastening hand of the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Moses (Deut. 28-32, Lev. 26, Judges 4:1-2, Gal. 6:7). As they reaped their consequences and the tyranny that followed they began to wake up and cry out unto the Lord for deliverance from their self inflicting doings (Judges 4:3).
Since -at this time - there were NO men who were strong godly leaders to judge the people of Israel, God rose up a courageous and godly women named Deborah to fill the gap (Judges 4:4,8-9, 5:7). As the judge and “mother” of Israel, Deborah rallied the nation and the men who were of understanding to defeat their oppressive enemy of twenty years by the hand of the God of Israel and restored justice and soundness to the nation from their oppressors (Judges 5:2). This woman with her love for the sound absolutes of Almighty God - which were found in the 10 commandments and in the Law of Moses - helped deliver the nation of Israel and for a time set them back on the road to recovery and soundness for forty years (Judges 5:31).
America’s Deborah
Much like the days of Deborah, we here in America seem to have the same settings and lawless crisis sweeping throughout our land at an exponential rate. There truly has not been a great American conservative (socially and fiscally) leader in this land since Ronald Reagan, some 25 years ago).
"What America so desperately needs more than ever is one who has the same God fearing, moral compass and vision that our founding fathers had at the birth of this nation"
What America so desperately needs more then ever is one who has the same God fearing, moral compass and vision that our founding fathers had at the birth of this nation. How many individuals in this nation today who hold political office out right REJECT our founding father's Judeo/Christian values, vision and understanding of what has made America great these last 235 years? There are not many men with courage, who are fearless, who posses sound moral conviction, boldness, passion, understanding of our day and the leadership to bring us back to the place of blessing and to the sound health of American values, which were based NOT on lawlessness, but on the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God!
There is only one that I know of who possess all of these qualities and who is from the heartland of these great United States. This one is not from the "Ivy League" palaces of academia. This one rejects secularism, lawlessness, socialism, progressivism and elitism. Absolutes are NOT relevant. Morality CANNOT be explained away for licentiousness. Lawlessness can NEVER bring harmony only anarchy. America has indeed apostatized from the original intent of the Declaration of Independence and our Constitution. Constitutional apostates have ruled the land these last 70 years and with them they bring social tyranny, injustice, violence, death, lawlessness, oppression, licentiousness, fiscal tyranny, anarchy and ruin (Isa. 1:9). It has finally taken the near social and fiscal collapses of this nation to stir up Americans and to see our desperate need to fight and to take back their country from those who fundamentally oppose all that our founders intended.
"It has finally taken the near social and fiscal collapses of this nation to stir up Americans and to see our desperate need to fight and to take back their country from those who fundamentally oppose all that our founders intended"
Out of the midst of our nation has risen many - but one in particular - whose love for God and country has placed her on the center stage of the 2012 Presidential election. One who the masses of common folk greatly respect and admire. One who has become a “mother” in these United States of America in an hour of crisis. One who has the vision and passion that our founders once possessed. And finally, one who has a fear of Almighty God to govern her and to do the right thing in these last days of America. Whether Sarah will run in 2012 or not nobody knows, but just her presence these last few years has fired up the true American spirit and has rallied the masses to stand and take their country back.
"One to whom the masses of common folk greatly respect and admire. One who has become a “mother” in these United States of America"
It is in times like these that the remnant – to whom possess the true spirit of America and its founding - of masses cry out to the God of George Washington, John Adams, Benjamin Rush – who all possessed a saving relationship to Almighty God – that Almighty God in His kindness may show this nation a little of His grace and mercy before the "Day of the Lord" arrives! We whose nation’s motto is, “In God Do We Trust”!
Sarah Palin is that leader in whom God has seemed to have risen up to stand for the vision that our founders once possessed. She (Sarah) possesses all of the founding father's American qualities and is the right leader for the right time.
"She (Sarah) possesses all of the founding father's American qualities and is the right leader for the right time"
The sunset is going down fast on America and "the Day of the Lord" will soon be at hand. May it be that Almighty God will grant this nation a little more space so that His Word may continue to go out and that the masses of American people would repent and fully turn to Him (Rom. 2:4).
The trumpet may blow at any time, but while we are here waiting the Lord’s soon return, may we all do our part to help slow the flood of lawlessness and lawlessness that has saturated or society and nation. May it be our sincere desire to pray for America and it awakening to the realities at hand. For in the end, whatever becomes of her, our hope is NOT in America and our Constitution, but our HOPE is in Almighty God and in His Son Jesus Christ (Col. 1:27, 1 Tim. 1:1 )! Always remember my dear friends in the light of these temporal settings the BIG picture, that the Kingdom of Heaven is TRULY at hand!
Really? I was at the Sept. 2007 Values Voter debate in Ft. Lauderdale, an event that was heavily rigged for Huckabee, and I heard it over and over again from his supporters. Maybe they backed off subsequently when folks told them how incredibly over the top such comparisons are.
I merely pointed out that the con man, Alan Keyes had a little cult following in 2008, at least we know that he will never run for president again.
Okay. I stand corrected. Maybe he does realize it. But that doesn’t make the comparison of Palin to Deborah any more palatable.
And the first thing Deborah did was trademark her name.
Whatever.
Dr. Keyes has done the life work of deeply thinking the founding principles of our country through in a way that no one else I know of has. That’s why he can do with words what no one else can. He has so internalized these principles that they just flow as naturally from him as water springs from an artesian well. It’s a truly amazing thing.
I guess you missed it...she was Moses two or three days ago.
Oh come on! This is one person’s opinion and comparisons to historical figures (even biblical ones) are made constantly. Don’t be so hypersensitive. Maybe if you didn’t seek these threads out looking for something to bitch about with your holier-than-thou attitude, you might recognize that such comparisons are prolific in literature, essays, and opinion pieces. Get over yourself.

I think that 2007 was the year that the desperate Alan Keyes fought for the Presidential nomination.
The problem was, being a desperate con man, he fought within three completely different parties for their nomination, now that takes chutzpah!
It's simply the truth, about a biblical principle.

Take a listen to that and tell me it isn't so.
Yes, she has been Lincoln, Washington, Reagan, Thatcher, (even herd one compare her to Churchill) compared to Jesus and most every saint you can mention, Joan of Arc, etc,.
But tell me this, can anyone recall any President elected to office who “Trademarked” their name prior to campaigning for office, or for that matter, served as President as such?
No, it couldn’t be all about money now, could it?
He was pwned.
Unfortunately he will spew on rather than go away in shame as he should.
Yeah. The Republican Party most definitely rejected Alan Keyes, and his message. To the extent of blackballing him and then not counting our votes here in Iowa.
And the Constitution Party was too much in the Ron Paul Republican/Libertarian/paleo-conservative/isolationist/anti-Israel vein.
So, big deal.
Wow! Sounds like somebody has some issues.
Palin and Deborah are both strong gutsy G*d fearing women, which is probably why he made the comparison. It’s not like he was comparing her to G*d, or anything like that.
What are you, twelve?
To me the trademark thing says she’s not running. It also says M*O*N*E*Y.
Well, it seem that all too many men in the Republican Party are basically a bunch of milquetoast get-along-to-get-along pushovers. Not all, of course, but quite a few. And it seems as if many of the conservatives who are willing to speak out and not give in to the threats and smears of the Left are women.
Sorry, I am not an Alan Keys cult member.
Is it that they are in need of being led by a woman, or do they just need to hear that is’s OK to be a conservative man, from a real woman?
