The Constitution of a Nation
The Revolution has begun!
A lively discussion:
What they didn't tell
us in public School
I believe farther that this [Constitution] is likely to be well administered for a Course of Years, and can only end in Despotism as other Forms have done before it, when the People shall become so corrupted as to need Despotic Government, being incapable of any other.
~ Benjamin Franklin
(Closing Speech, 1787 Constitutional Convention)
“The sum of all is, if we would most truly enjoy the gift of Heaven [Liberty], let us become a virtuous people; then shall we both deserve and enjoy it. While on the other hand, if we are universally vicious and debauched in our manners, though the form of our Constitution carries the face of the most exalted freedom, we shall in reality be the most abject slaves.”
~ Samuel Adams
In this paper, we hope to begin to explain the hidden purpose of God in establishing this country, and the work he is doing even now to fulfill his ultimate purpose. We hope you will take the time to read these words. And if your heart is stirred, as ours is, to be a part of what he is doing on the earth, then come and join the revolution!
