THE “FIRST THANKSGIVING” MAY NOT HAVE BEEN THE FIRST “THANKSGIVING”!
It’s sad that so much of truthful American history is being, or has already been, forgotten, consigned to Big Brother’s “memory hole” of left wing political correctness or “woke” insanity that infests what passes for public “education” in the U.S. A case in point is the story of what for a long time has been considered as the “First Thanksgiving”---the one we’ve always heard about—the one that took place in Plymouth, Massachusetts, not the mostly unknown but probable true “firstThanksgiving” in America that took place in Jamestown, Virginia soon after those settlers arrived around 1608 (of course, the folks in St. Augustine, Florida claim that they celebrated the “first Thanksgiving” service sometime around 1565, long before the Jamestown settlers---but that’s a story for another time).

As of last September 17, 2023, our nation—the United States of America—has existed as a Constitutional Republic for 236 years, thanks to the wisdom, the faith, the fortitude, and the willingness to reach compromises, on the part of our Founders who signed the 1787 constitution and, a few years later, our Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments to that constitution. During those 236 years our venerable constitution has weathered many attacks against it, and has been amended (often unwisely) a total of 27 times. Despite the hordes of calumnies directed against our constitution by mental midgets and Godless collectivists, and especially against those inspired men who codified the God-given rights enshrined therein, our federal Constitution has stood the test of time by providing a national “blueprint” for the governance of our nation through war and peace, through good and bad economic times, through disasters caused by human foibles and corruption and treason, and increasingly through the shadowy conspiracies of “Un-Americans” who were—and still are-- determined to end this “experiment in self-government” in favor of some form of collectivist coercion or authoritative tyranny, forms of “government” for which those treasonous Devil’s spawn have always lusted.

Amanda’s Tale #3 – The Descent Of Darkness – Atlanta, Summer, 2148 A.D.
Amanda stepped to the side of the vault, and told Mary to stand in front of the voice computer input on the front of the vault.
“Mary, my faithful employee and friend, I’m giving you the access code to this vault. Write it down on that memo pad I know you always carry with you. Then memorize it and destroy that paper.” She gave Mary the code, and told her to verbally input the code sequence, which she did. “Pull the door open, Mary,” Amanda requested. As the younger woman opened the vault door, Amanda turned to her. “Mary, I don’t know what future you or Min will have, considering what is facing our country, but for what it’s worth, except for this house I’m leaving everything I have to the both of you. I have no children or surviving family, so now you are my heirs. It’s all been done legally, here in this will.” She removed a document from one of the shelves and opened it.

Amanda’s Tale #2—The Descent Of Darkness—Atlanta, Summer, 2148 A.D.
“I’ve got some savings and a few investments left, Mary,” replied Amanda. “I went to the State Bank last week and got enough cash to last us for a couple of months. The “No Nos” didn’t find it, I’m sure. Help me to the riser, and I’ll go down and open the vault. Min, you stay up here and try to clean up as best you can. We won’t be long.”
The lower level of the Jennings mansion, formerly the scene of many delightful parties, dances, and recitals by young musicians, was trashed even worse than the upstairs. Smashed and slashed furniture was scattered around the rooms, and all of the valuable original and rare paintings by famous artists of the past 200 years had been removed and burned in the back yard. Her prized photo images of many of her special gatherings had also been consigned to the fires of stupidity and mindless rage set by the mob of modern Neanderthals trying to destroy the “demons” of the past, as the “No Nos” and their demagogic leaders taught the new masses.

Born To Run – God’s Gold Medalist

“They shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary” - Isaiah 40:31
Some people seem “born to run”. I was never one of that number, but some men and women make it look easy; their Creator apparently blessed them with “swift genes” and invisible “wings” on their feet. One of these people who loved to run was a Scotsman named Eric Henry Liddell (1902-1945). God blessed Eric with a love for running that I never had, to such an extent that during his university days he was considered the fastest runner in Scotland. He was awarded a Gold Medal in the 1924 Paris Olympics for winning the “400 Meter” race, an event in which he had been given almost no chance ofmedaling, for his true specialty was the “100 Meter” race, from which Liddell had previously withdrawn. Why would a world-class runner withdraw from an event that he was favored to win? Therein lies the story of this special man, the future missionary who seemed to have “wings on his feet”, but who left the world of sports to serve his LORD and Savior in China.

Her two terrified employees—long-time friends, really—found the elderly woman sitting on the floor of her spacious living room amid the shards of broken window plasto and the shattered ruins of tables, chairs, lamps, and the worst destruction of all, the battered remains of her Steinway Imperial Concert Grand piano, the one she had used as a concert pianist for decades—the one she had taken with her to many cities in The ConfederatedRepublics of America as she performed with acclaimed symphony orchestras—a no-longer-made musical instrument that had delighted untold numbers of classical music lovers since she was a young woman.

In The Mansions Of The Lord

“ 2) In my Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you, 3) And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself, that where I am, there ye may be also” - John 14:2-3, KJV
“2) My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? 3) And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.” - John 14: 2-3, NIV
WHAT ARE “HEAVENLY MANSIONS” IN SCRIPTURE?
Dictionaries define the word “mansion” as “a large, impressive house; astately residence”. That’s the picture that most modern people have when they think of a “mansion”. The writer of the Book of John, inspired by the Holy Spirit, used that word in the KJV translation of God’s Word, in John 14:2. The Anglicized version of the original old word used by the writer of John was “monay”, which meant a dwelling, or an abode, but did not infer avery large or stately dwelling, as we normally think of as today’s meaning of the word. The translators of the NIV version of God’s Word used the word “rooms” rather than mansions, which still gives readers the implication that Jesus was talking about “abodes”, or places to live.

THE BIRTH, LIFE, AND DEATH OF THE CONFEDERATED REPUBLICS OF AMERICA, CA. 2050/55 A.D.-CA. 2150 A.D.
“In our last class session I discussed that by around the year 2050 A.D., large numbers of people from parts of the by-now disintegrating Old United States, many of the militia groups that had been battling against the increasingly tyrannical government of that now-extinct nation and the military of the Chin Empire that had occupied much of it, plus many thousands of the members of the armed military forces that had been serving under the old “We The People” Constitution of the United States, and who still adhered in varying degrees to that constitution, began congregating (mostly for safety and survival) in the Southeastern part of the GreatNorthernContinent, and as they arrived, began to declare themselves to be a “New, Free, and Independent Nation” whose name, they decided in an early founding meeting, was to be The Confederated Republics of America, named such due to all of the former “states” of the Old United States that had declared themselves a part of the new Confederation, and who now considered themselves to be free and independent “republics”.

If Eternal Vigilance Is Still The Price For Our Freedom, Why Have So Many Americans Refused To Pay That Price?

“The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance, which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt.”
John Curran (1750-1817), Irish lawyer and statesman. From a speech given in Dublin, Ireland on July 10, 1790. (Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations, John Bartlett, Ed., Brown & Co., 1968, p. 454).
It has long been postulated that it was Thomas Jefferson who first said, “Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty”. However, it’s now considered very doubtful that Jefferson ever uttered those famous words. Others of our Founders may have expressed similar thoughts during their conflict with Great Britain, but it was Irishman John Curran who iscredited with the original coining of that sentiment. Without any doubt, constant vigilance has always been a key element in the eons-long battle of mankind to attain or retain some degree of freedom and limited self-government, two indispensable elements in the forging of a life worth living that have been historically denied far too often to most of mankind by conniving and ruthless parts of the human “herd”.

Life really is much harder if you’re stupid, especially if you’re deliberately stupid. Words to that effect were uttered by the hard-nosed (but soft hearted) Sergeant Stryker in the great old 1949 film, “Sands of Iwo Jima”, and portrayed so well by John Wayne (1907-1979), one of the most unique actors that American film has ever produced and who, despite his failures and shortcomings was one of the most sincere patriots our country has ever produced. An iconoclast of leftist/progressive causes, Wayne was a strong supporter (in his later life) of traditional Americanism and the constitutional form of government given to Americans by our Founders. As he matured, he became a political conservative, much to the chagrin of the leftist vermin and brain damaged“ moonbats” who increasingly dominated Hollywood during most of his career.

Beneath whose awful (awesome) hand we hold Dominion over palm and pine—
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget—lest we forget!

Still stands Thine ancient Sacrifice, An humble and a contrite heart.

THE BREAKUP OF THE OLD UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AIDED BY MILITARY FORCES OF THE “CHIN” EMPIRE.
“In our last class we discussed the beginnings of the dissolution of the country once known as ‘The United States of America’, starting with its Civil War that began, as far as we can determine, around the year 2030 A.D., a war that was fomented by what I referred to as ‘militia groups’ and ‘frustrated military commanders’ who considered themselves loyal to the “We The People” constitution that had governed that nation for at least a quarter of a millennia, as near as can be determined from the scant historical records that survived the Nationality Wars and the Dark Time, events that we believe ended the Christian civilization of that time, between 500 to 600 years ago.

“If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow all His commands I will give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of Earth. All these blessings will come on you and accompany you if you obey the Lord your God.”
Deuteronomy 28:1-2 NIV (Deuteronomy was George Washington’s favorite Book of the Bible).
“These are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like Hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated….

In the Year of our Lord, 2023, the citizens of our troubled American nation find themselves virtually breaking apart over “politics”; more specifically split down the middle between those who call themselves “conservatives” or “Americanists”, who honor and respect the “old ways” that were codified by our Founders in our Constitution and transmitted long before our Constitution existed to all of mankind through the centuries by God’s Eternal Word (our Bible), and those who call themselves “modernliberals”, who essentially reject almosteverything that conservatives believe in and honor. They love to assure us that they respect that heritage as much as all the rest of us do, but they really don’t! They are LIARS! The “heritage” that modern liberals truly respect is the chaos, repression, death and destruction (of property and Christian sanity) fomented by the FRENCH Revolution of 1789! Those jaundiced Jacobins are the same NOW as they were during the “Reign of Terror” in revolutionary France. The only difference is that now they call themselves “Democrats”!
