Four Simple Words to Save America
American Thinker ^ | 7/10/22 | Diana Allocco

Posted on 07/12/2022 9:01:07 AM PDT by M. Thatcher

There abides in the living recall of my generation — and among widely scattered remnants of the traditional America that yet survives — one of the greatest spiritual weapons we can wield: our national motto.

I was not yet two years old when both Houses of Congress passed a joint resolution declaring "IN GOD WE TRUST" the official motto of the United States. There was no debate, nor a single dissenting vote. By law, it remains America's watchword to this day, Public Law 84-851, signed by Eisenhower on July 30, 1956.

The Senate reaffirmed the motto in 2006, as did the House eleven years ago — with nine dissenting Democrats. Some of them, including Reps. Jerry Nadler, Bobby Scott, and Judy Chu, still sit in the House chamber that displays the motto in huge gold letters high on the wall behind the speaker's chair. The declaration IN GOD WE TRUST is literally written in stone.

Despite Democrat objections, the 2011 Congressional reaffirmation goes even farther than the original 1956 text, this time also "supporting and encouraging the public display of the national motto in all public buildings, public schools, and other government institutions." You can find the stark four words of the motto in bronze on plaques scattered among federal offices...Virtually our entire government, elected and unelected, daily passes by these declarations of trust in God.

The words go mostly unnoticed. It is law that they appear on all U.S. currency, but as fewer and fewer Americans handle cash, the tangible national reminder of Whom we trust is vanishing...

Coincidentally, we drifted from our anchor as our money went godless...

So the four simple words have been dormant, awaiting renewal, their power shrouded for a time. Until now. These words are lightning, ready to be let loose.

the new generations do not believe in God, they do , however have 100% faith in the information they are fed. Research from multiple sources is no longer a thing, just “google’ it and accept it as truth, god is a myth to them, they were brainwashed in schools and “in google we trust” is the new normal

Verrry nice!

People who pronounce America dead forget the source of our power. You want to watch the old republic emerge from its chrysalis? Trust God, together with your countrymen who know that God is our hope and freedom.

Right on the money.

"IN GOD WE TRUST"

(the official motto of the United States)

By law, it remains America's watchword to this day, Public Law 84-851, signed by Eisenhower on July 30, 1956.

Parshat Re'eh ("see"):

Monday, July 30, 1956
22 Av, 5716

Torah Reading
Re'eh: Deuteronomy 11:26 - 12:10

26. Behold, I set before you today a blessing and a curse...

Chumash
Parshat Re'eh, 2nd Portion (Deuteronomy 12:11-12:28)

11 And it will be, that the place the Lord, your God, will choose in which to establish His Name there you shall bring all that I am commanding you: Your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the separation by your hand, and the choice of vows which you will vow to the Lord...

https://www.chabad.org/calendar/view/day.asp?tdate=07%2F30%2F1956

***

Blessing or curse, God or mammon...

(mammon: lit. "that in which one trusts")

The wording is unusual; it implies a "No." No, it is not in coins we trust, not in currency. No, it is not in horses, not in arms, not in people nor in any human design. "No," it cautions, "not those. In God we trust."

It goes a long way in explaining why the sunshine thieves have been out in full force, many under the color of righteousness, as if sunshine could be caught and jailed.

Catch me if you can!

In Georgia there is an optional sticker you are allowed to attach to your car tag, “In God We Trust”. They’re sold at the county tag office.
