In America of yesterday, you paid your debts on time, and went without to do so. You spent less than you earned and wanted your government to do the same thing.

You disciplined your children, but disciplined yourself first. You went to church services regularly and took your children to Bible classes.

You would have been horrified at (and quick to change) any men in high places who made “deals.” You expected to prosper only by doing a better job.

That was the character that brought this great country victory in the two world wars, built it back from a shattering depression, and fed and saved the civilized world (materially).

American society today leaves a lot to be desired. These righteous principles will lead us back to the greatness America enjoyed in the past.

King Solomon wrote, “Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people.” (Proverbs 14:34)
