“TILL THERE WAS NO
REMEDY" ,
Cod of our fathers, known of old.
Lord of our far-flung battle line,
Beneath whose awful hand we
hold
Dominion over palm and pine:
Lord Cod of'Hosts, be with trs yet
Lest we forget, lest we forget-
If, drunk with sight of power,
we loose
Wild tongues that have not Thee
in awe,

Or lesser breeds without'the law:
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet
>Lest wVforget, left we forget!
— Rudyard Kipljng
Let us never forget as Ameri-
cans that our nation was founded
uppp,..t,bs‘„Uti 1 >;y.Ribfe as its foun-
tainhead, and that our beloved
Constitution was divinely inspir-
ed by this Bible. An anaology tan
be pertinently drawn between the
establishment of the United
States and the ancient kingdom of
Israel. For God was peculiarly ov-
ershadowing both. «
We are told in I Samuel 8:6
that the people of Israel demand-
ed a king to reign over them—so
that they could be like the na-
tions around them. They had be-
come dissatisfied with the system
of Judges directly under the
guidance of Jehovah. They did
^jpot want to continue to appear as
a .peculiar' people among the
heathen peoples around them. But
God said to Samuel the prophet
and judge, “Hearken unto the
Lest we forget, lest we forget!
—Kipling
The downward trend of Hie
United States continued through
the 1930’s, while Socialism took
fast hold on us, and while we
swallowed huge doses of “Pacific-
ism’’ administered by our ene-
mies to make us weak and spirit-
less! Then came World War II,
and by the merest thread we won
the war-—this was agairr by Di-
vine Deliverance. In 1945, Amer-
ica was still the strongest nation1
on earth, and its- moral leader.
Declin. Ti Traced
"But, 1945 was the year which
saw Hie birth of the United Na-
tions on our soil—the year we
took the fatal step of taking into
Our national bosom the United
Nations which denies God an$
Christ. The name of our God and
Savior is officially banned- from
its sessions, ,
Since „then,we have experienced
our first defeat in battle, and
have lost our world-wide prestige,
have lost thousands of our youth
in battle and-many other thous-
ands in the quicksands of crime.
Our national resources of money,
materials, and moral strength
have been squandered to an im-
measurable degree. Are we going
to continue on in this course until
there is no longer any remedy? It
seems so.
The humble and the contrite
heart—God’s ancient sacrifice —
seems to have forsaken our na-
tion, and we have forsaken it.

rejected me, that I should not

Nevertheless, in God’s foresee-

king for them in the person of
Saul, and likewise in a man after

iad David was already being
trained for Israel’s leader at that
hour. He was yonder in the hills
shepherding his sheep, and com-
posing Psalms of praise as he lab-
ored in loneliness. Also, God was
preparing prophets to warn His
people down through the centur-
ies.

in our national rebellion just as
there is in ah individual’s life:
There comes a time when there is
NO remedy. >

In the United States, you can

The United States turned her
back ’officially upon her Divihe
Guide in 1933, when she “wefil
down into Egypt for help”—that
ism.
There was General MacArthur
—grandest citizen and soldiar of
the worlds—destroyed by a pigmy
agent of the United Nations. Sen-
ator McCarthy who was exposing

is, when she joined hands with K K0V<,r„^,nt departments tin-
godless Russia in a covenant of
friendship. From that time on
Cod has sent us hundreds, yes
thousands, of warnings and omens
to turn us from our blindness and
wickedness. But, we have contin-
ued on our stiff-necked way, just
as Israel did.
In II Chronicles 3vG you find the
closing out of the hjistory of Jud-
ah as a natioji. (Jiida.h was that
small portion of Israel which held
its national-existence until 586
B. C. The kingdom of Israel was
carried ’ captivs • in 722 B. C.)

■ “And the Lord God of their
fathers sent to them by his me*
■engers, riling up betimes (con-
tinually and carefully) and send-
ing; because he had compassion
on his people, and on his dwell-
ing-place:
“But they mocked the messeng
era of God, and despised hi*
words,- and misused his prophets,
until the wrath of the Dord arose
against his people, till there was
no remedy.” - -
\ The tumult and the shouting dies;
> The captains and the kings
\;*1 depart;
til he was destroyed and brought
to dyath by our inner enemies.
Ytju could go on and on, nam-
ing army generals, government
officials, preachers, and teachers
and editors who have warned of
our dangers and have consequent-
ly been discredited. Shall we con-
tinue thus Until There Is No
Remedy, and God’s wrath shall
descend ' upon our unprotected
heads?
Then there will be no compas-
sion on the children or the aged,
or the, laborers (who now demand
such high wages to keep them
'from striking), no pity on the fel-
low-workers and pink-sympathiz-
ers, the “liberals” or the modern-
istic clergymen. All will be killed
or “brought to Babylon.
Still stands Thine ancient
sacrifice.

Lord God of Hosts, be with us

Far-called our navies melt away,
On dune and headland sinks the
fire;
Lo, all our pomp of yesterday
Is one with Nineveh and Tyre!
Judge of the Nations, spare us
yet,

trust
In reeking tube and iron shard;
