Being a Patriot has, is, and will always be determined by how well “We hold these truths...”

Warning Signs In his last State of the Union Address, one month before he issued the Emancipation Proclamation, Abraham Lincoln said, “we shall nobly save, or meanly lose, the last best hope of earth.”

Warning Signs Ronald Reagan once proclaimed, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.

We didn’t pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset…

…years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States when men were free.”

Warning Signs The story goes that as Benjamin Franklin emerged from Independence Hall at the close of the…

Warning Signs …Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia on September 18, 1787, a woman asked him, “Well Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?”

Warning Signs Mr. Franklin replied, “A republic, madam – if you can keep it.”

Proverbs 14:33-35 “Wisdom rests in the heart of him who has understanding, but what is in the heart of fools is made known.

Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people. The king’s favor is toward a wise servant, but his wrath is against him who causes shame.

Matthew 7:16-18, 20 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?

Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.

…Therefore by their fruits you will know them.”

Patriot Truths Under God Thomas Paine

“Were a man impressed as fully and strongly as he ought to be with the belief of a God, his moral life would be regulated by the force of belief…

…he would stand in awe of God and himself, and would not do the thing that could not be concealed from either.”

Patriot Truths Individual Rights & Responsibilities George Washington

“Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Reason and experience both forbid us…

…to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.”

Patriot Truths Rule of Law & the Exalted Place of Justice

‘All Men Are Created Equal’ Jefferson first used the phrase in the Declaration of Independence

‘A More Perfect Union’ Found in the Preamble to the United States Constitution

Patriot Truth is the living out of the values and sacred nobilities which drove our Founders to establish our dear Republic!
