The United States of America has become a misnomer. Our nation is anything but united. In fact, I cannot recall a time in American history when we have been more divided than now.

The teachings of the Bible are prerequisites to wisdom and understanding.
We have long forgotten that the Bible was the primary source of inspiration for those who penned the greatest manmade documents of all time: the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights...............To Read More....
