“---If religious books are not widely circulated among the masses in this country, I do not know what is going to
become of us as a nation.
---If truth be not diffused, then error will be. If God and His Word are not known and received, the devil and his works will gain the ascendency.
---If the evangelical volume does not reach every hamlet, the pages of a corrupt and licentious literature will.
---If the power of the gospel is not felt throughout the length and breadth of this land, anarchy and misrule, degradation and misery, corruption and darkness will reign without mitigation or end.”
Daniel Webster spoke these words more than 170 years ago. Today’s violence, sexual permissiveness, idolatry, injustice, tyranny, riots, and our culture of death bear witness to the truthfulness of his statements.
Anyone with a little knowledge of the Holy Scriptures knows that there is a living God in heaven who governs the affairs of men and who can see the end from the beginning. And it is God’s will that men and women recognize Him as the only true God and receive His instructions as divine revelation:
“O ye transgressors. Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.” Isaiah 46:8-10.
And it is equally true that every time a corrupt worldly culture turns against God and begins to persecute His people, a day of reckoning follows.
On January, 20, 2021, as our nation prepares to inaugurate the most liberal, the most anti-biblical and the most radical group of ideologues ever assembled, it would do well to remember the words of a man whose portrait hangs inside of the US Capitol as a testament against this generation of Americans who no longer believe in biblical morality or divine revelation."
