Four Themes of Biblical America

Carman: America was founded on Godly principles by men who prayed and sought their answers to governmental questions in the Bible. And it only stands to reason, if a country strays away from the word of God it strays away from the blessing of God.
Carman:
In the 40's and 50's student problems were chewing gum and talking, in the 90's rape and murder are the trend.
The only way this nation can even hope to last this decade is put God in America again.
The only hope for America is Jesus,
The only hope for our country is Him...

Flip Benham: We're not dealing with a battle about euthanasia or abortion or homosexuality or clean needles. We're dealing with two worldviews, a culture of death versus a culture of life. And the homosexual worldview is exactly the same as the worldview of abortion. You know what it is? It's my rights my body my choice my thing you don't tell me what to do I'll do what I want whenever I want to and the one commandment I have is thou shalt not get in my face and don't you dare judge me. On the other side of that is the worldview that brings life which says, you are not your own, you were bought with a price therefore glorify God with your body, that it's not my body I don't belong to me anymore...

You see it's not a battle about abortion or homosexuality, it's a battle about whose laws reign or who is Lord. And we're saying that Jesus is Lord and Mickey is not.
 

Peter Marshall Jr.: The whole understanding of Constitutional government in America is based on a Biblical heritage. The problem today is, we've lost our understanding of that because we really do not understand Constitutionally what America is built on, because we've lost the understanding of the Biblical basis for that Constitution.
 
Jerry Falwell: This nation is Biblically based... This nation was built upon those principals called the Judeo-Christian ethic. Judeo - principles out of the Old Testament. Christian - principles out of the New Testament. And when you take those principles of the Old and New Testament, Judeo-Christian ethic, you have a society called America in its beginnings.
 
Roy McMillan: I believe governments are mandated to recognize God as sovereign over nations just as we believe God is sovereign over individuals.

Roy Moore: This government was founded upon a belief in God, on a belief in God, the laws of nature and of nature's God... This was a nation established on a belief in God and God's law. And certainly the ACLU would have us change that.
 
 

Rep. John Hostettler (R-IN): But I must say, to be fair to the ACLU, the problem is not with institutions like the ACLU or People for the American Way or Planned Parenthood or any other organization with whom we may fundamentally and philosophically disagree. The problem is that we simply lack the knowledge necessary to engage these people whose personal beliefs are fundamentally and philosophically antithetical to the heritage of the United States of America.

Why do I refer to their personal beliefs? Because the historical facts simply do not support their perspective.
 

Herb Titus: This is a nation that is built upon the assumption that the book of Genesis is historically, literally true. This nation was not founded by people who believed in the Darwinian theory of evolution.

Charles Phillips: We Christians have willfully handed over our government to the secular humanists. We have given them the authority to make the rules; the results speak for themselves.

Promise Keeper speaker: We've eliminated the authority of the Bible from the public schools.
 
 
 

Pat Robertson: So if the United States wants to embrace 'degrading passions' according to the Bible, something that the Bible says is an abomination against God, we're not in any way, shape or form hating anybody, this is not a message of hate, this is a message of redemption, but if a condition like this will bring about the destruction of your nation, if it will bring about terrorist bombs, it'll bring about earthquakes, tornadoes and possibly a meteor, it isn't necessarily something we should open our arms to.
 
Charles Phillips: But the time has come for us to get out of the stands and onto the playing field.
 
Star Parker: [We have] developed in this country a real rejection of God, and now we need to join forces to push back this darkness... Black America is primed to help us in pushing back darkness... Now we're at real war between secularism and Christian principles guiding and leading our young people and our country.
 
Flip Benham: And we will win. We are not looking for a place at the enemy's table where we can negotiate with him. We are looking to kick the table over in the name of Jesus Christ and take over!

From the opening to Mario Murillo's weekly program on TBN, "Becoming Armed and Dangerous."

Titles: We war not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers...

Put on the full armour of God... Taking up the shield of faith and the sword of the Spirit...
Becoming Armed and Dangerous! with Mario Murillo
Exchange between Flip Benham and Sabina of BARF:
Benham: It is never at this time justifiable to take a life --

Sabina: At this time?

Benham: At any time, at this point...

Carman:
God's got an army
He's not afraid to fight
Soldiers of the cross
And children of the light
Warriors of righteousness
With healing in their hands
God's got an army
Marching through the land

(inset) Flip Benham: God's kingdom advances violently! And only violent men apprehend it.

Carman:
Everybody there's joy in the battle so we commence
to change this nation's course
The kingdom of God suffereth violence
and the violent take it by force

The "Revolutionary Warriors:"
Not afraid to stand and fight
Cast out demons left and right
Carman:
Strong in battle strong in prayer
We tell Satan, get outta here

The "Revolutionary Warriors:"
Sound off! Jesus!
Sound off! Is Lord!
Carman:
Jesus is Lord!
Jesus is Lord!

(inset) Roy McMillan: See, I know Paul Hill, he's a friend of mine, and I endorse what he did.

Title: Paul Hill was convicted of the 1994 shotgun murders of a doctor and volunteer escort. He has been sentenced to death.
