IN GOD WE TRUST? Or In Dollar We Trust?


It was the good Rev. M. R. Watkinson, Minister of the Gospel from Ridleyville, Pennsylvania, who first made a formal appeal for the recognition of the Almighty God in American Currency in a letter he wrote to the Secretary of the Treasury, Salmon P. Chase on November 13, 1861.

Dear Sir,
You are about to submit your annual report to the Congress respecting the affairs of the national finances.
One fact touching our currency has hitherto been seriously overlooked. I mean the recognition of the Almighty God in some form on our coins.
IN GOD WE TRUST


This historical giant leap of faith has made America the wealthiest nation on earth since they made that covenant with the Almighty God. And nothing can break this divine covenant, except the covenant keeping God Himself. And He doesn't change. So, that means America will continue to flourish and prosper as long as God pleases.

But in my country Nigeria, our case is different. We have not made any covenant with God in our currency and no wonder the value of our Naira depends on the Almighty Dollar.

Back to America.
But, how many Americans trust in God or in their dollar?
Without any fear or favour, I can state here that majority of Americans trust their dollar more than God. Millions of them don't even trust God at all. Because, anybody who will not bow to the authority, excellency and supremacy of God does not believe or have any trust in the Almighty God.

Where your heart is, that is where your God is.

As long as "IN GOD WE TRUST" remains on the American currency, I will continue to support the United States of America, no matter what happens. Because, "In God I Trust".

Terrorist Attacks on America Before Osama Bin Laden Was Born : 1920 -2005.

Image
This is a record of all terrorist attacks in America and in countries with American interests and on American Embassies and citizens abroad. Osama bin Laden did not create the demons of terrorism. He is only one of the most diabolical and destructive of them all. The devil is the author of Terrorism in his capacity as the Son of Perdition and the father of chaos. It is very important to clarify these issues for the benefit of those who are ignorant and naive and have been jumping to erroneous conclusions. Terrorist Attacks (within the United States or against Americans abroad) 1920: septa. 16, New York City: TNT bomb planted in unattended horse-drawn wagon exploded on Wall Street opposite House of Morgan , killing 35 people and injuring hundreds more. Bolshevist or anarchist terrorists believed responsible, but crime never solved. 1975 Jan. 24, New York City: bomb set off in historic Fraunces Tavern killed 4 and injured more than 50 people.

Let Us Talk To Boko Haram - Nigerian Professor

A Commentary Direct Talk and Psychological Accessibility to the Boko Haram Group Is worth the Trial in Nigeria It is now obvious that the nation is now fully plagued by terrorism which is so widespread and monumental that it is hard to unravel. At a time when the Nigerian air is filled with the festivities of Eid al-Adha, the feast of sacrifice, which in a supposed way should involve the slaughter sheep and cattle, and not the near-sacrifice of a son, as in Abraham’s case, but the reverse is the case.Human slaughter is in our face on a daily basis in Nigeria due to the Boko Haram wrath. Violence in Nigeria, a country of more than 150 million with an almost equal split between the Christian south and the Muslim north is affecting public safety and national security. Nothing appears to be stopping the inflammable and untamed-able torment, fear and worry across the country. There appears to be a legitimate state of distress nationally, and the cause of the state of distress is growing d...
