For the director of music - A psalm of David.
You have searched me, Lord, and you know me.
You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar.
You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways.
Before a word is on my tongue, you, Lord, know it completely.
You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.
Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.
If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,”
even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place,
when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them!
Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand—
when I awake, I am still with you. Psalm 139: 113 - 142 (NIV)
FOUNDER’S MESSAGE:
In last Sunday’s edition, I shared my perspective about the Supreme Court decision that had overturned the Roe v. Wade decision: https://citizensentinelsnetwork.com/csn-lightwing-messages-7-24-2022/ My message was an attempt to compare two Supreme Court rulings that had created great division with the nation in their respective historical periods. My message primarily compared the Roe v. Wade decision with the Dred Scott decision and provided simple contextual premises for each of them. Today’s edition features a second look at the issue of abortion, from another historical perspective.
In a subtle way, the message is an outreach to those of faith, who have eyes to see and ears to hear the signs of these times. In Jesus’ time, as in this time, there are many who remain blind and deaf to the signs of the times. The question then is whether we are our brothers’ keepers.
This is the question that Cain posed to God before he killed his brother Abel.
Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?”
“I don’t know,” he replied. “Am I my brother’s keeper?”
The Lord said, “What have you done? Listen! Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground. Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.” Genesis 4:9-11 (NIV)
In such a time as this, there are those who are not blind and deaf. Do we who have eyes to see and ears to hear still complain to God: are we our brothers’ keepers? When the government of the people, by the people, and for the people becomes complicit in the willful and deliberate destruction of human life, the blood of the innocent cries out to Him from the ground. Is America currently under a curse? Are curses things of the past? For those who have eyes to see, what do you see? For those who have ears to hear, what do you hear? As Charles Finney’s sermon revealed in the days when he opposed slavery with everything he could muster, moral insanity had become the norm of his day. CSN Sunday – LightWing Messages – 6/12/2022

Returning to First Principles Will Restore America to “One Nation Under God”
by Dennis Jamison
July 31, 2022
The article I wrote last week focused on the recent Supreme Court decision to reverse the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling and noted the divisiveness and destructiveness originating from that ruling compared with a similar effect the Dred Scott decision in 1857 had upon the nation in that time. An irony within these two rulings is that each of the decisions was intended to create a general consensus and end debate over the respective controversial issues by having the justices of the Supreme Court deliver the “final word” on slavery or abortion.
Neither of these two Supreme Court rulings created a “final word” on such divisive issues. One more apparent irony is evident in comparing these two rulings. On the one hand, the Dred Scott decision was intended to mandate a policy of the federal government’s restraint from interfering in a states’ “right” to determine the legality or legitimacy of the ‘peculiar institution’ of slavery – whether slavery should exist or not. On the other hand, the Roe v. Wade ruling was intended to institute a policy of the federal government’s mandate upon the states of the “legitimacy” of aborting life inside the womb. The two rulings represent the polar opposite utilization of the Constitution to nationalize a law. It is central to the fundamental separation of powers that the Framers built into the Constitutional Republic.
Yet, it should be noted that at the time of the Dred Scott decision, many intelligent and clear - minded leaders in many spheres of society saw the proverbial “handwriting on the wall” that the southern plantation owners were intent upon expanding the institution of slavery throughout all the new states entering the Unon. This being true, then southern slave owners would have demanded a Supreme Court decision intended to institute a policy of the federal government’s mandate of the “legality” of slavery upon all of the incoming states. The history of “Bleeding Kansas” and the Lecompton Constitution (Lecompton Constitution | United States history | Britannica) serve as prime signposts. The political puppets of the southern slave owners also had readied a Thirteenth Amendment to pass through Congress. It basically represented the same intent as what had been decided in Dred Scott.
These events only strengthened the abolitionist movement and the anti-slavery coalition that became the Republican Party, created in 1854. In such a time, Abraham Lincoln also saw the “handwriting on the wall” in the danger that nationalization of slavery posed to the Union. As I wrote in the previous article, Lincoln “...grasped that the external justification for the ‘peculiar institution’ of slavery, or the so-called ‘rights’ of slave owners to own human beings was the central precept that Negroes were not human.” He realized the urgency to get back to the principles embedded in the roots of the nation.
Long before his Emancipation Proclamation, Abraham Lincoln was fighting to return the nation to the original foundation established under the Declaration of Independence: “all” men being equal under the law. Lincoln addressed the issue in June of 1857, after the Dred Scott Decision:
Chief Justice Taney, in his opinion in the Dred Scott case, admits that the language of the Declaration of Independence is broad enough to include the whole human family, but he and Judge (Stephen) Douglas argue that the authors of that instrument did not intend to include negroes.
I think the authors of that incredible instrument intended to include all men, but they did not intend to declare men equal in all respects.
“[but] … equal in certain ‘inalienable rights among which are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.’” This they said, and this they meant.
At the time of the construction of the Confederate States of America, Jefferson Davis, the President of the C.S.A., stated that all men were not equal. Vice President Alexander Stephens, proclaimed that there was “scientific proof” that the black man was not equal to the white man. Such Confederate political leaders came out of the closet to show their true colors because they no longer feared proclaiming what they truly believed. Even the northern Democrats wanted to promote their political propaganda.
Propaganda is just another name for lies, and one lie at the heart of the Pro-Choice advocates’ argument is that there is a “right” to terminate life (murder via santized legaleze) because the life inside the mother’s womb is not human. This basic precept contains the same semblance of “scientific proof” as was made by the Pro-Slavery advocates. In each historical instance, intent existed to determine what is “truly human” by a few individuals unqualified to make this sacred proclamation.
Now, the Left and their sycophants are making the same argument to promote and perpetuate immorality and the abortion industry, while millions of babies have been murdered based upon ignorance and a politically based lie.
Propaganda from the Pro-Slavery and the Pro-Choice advocates enabled a few evil, immoral people to profit personally and politically. The Left and their sycophants have utilized carefully crafted lies to promote and perpetuate inot only the abortion industry, but widespread immorality. Millions of babies have been murdered based upon ignorance and a politically based lie. Also, the Roe v. Wade ruling provided an artificially imposed justification from the highest court in America not only for profit, but for unlimited sexual promiscuity. To some degree, with Roe in place, Americans were freed from any responsibility or accountability for such widespread immorality.
This point exposes the deeper realm of the abortion issue. Abortion provides a convenient solution to the consequences of unbrideld sexual promiscuity and deeper sexual perversion. Currently in America, sexual perversion has sunk to even greater depths. It has become more apparent to the public, partly because sexual perversion is being promoted on a grander scale than ever before – even to children. In truth, abortion is essentially the “treatment” of symptoms of the more pervasive “plague” of sexual imorality.
And, make no mistake over whether this fundamental problem is primarily limited to the younger generation. Also, sexual immorality is honestly not a Democrat vs. Republican political issue. It is not simply a Christian vs. a non-Christian problem. Unprotected sexual intercourse almost always results in the creation of life within the womb of the woman (and women claiming to be men). Such life grows; if allowed to grow to full term, a baby is born. It is unmistakably a biological phenomenon. However, a few ignorant and deceitful humans decided that the babies growing in the womb were not human in the early stages of that growth. It is an argument to justify a sanitized way of killing human beings. My previous article mentioned that the marketing slogan, “My body, my choice,” has the built-in notion that the baby in the mother is not another human being struggling to survive in the womb.” To deny that the life inside is human is simply redefining reality. Such deception is rooted in a lie that defies reality and is perpetuated by ignorance and self-centeredness.
Abraham Lincoln was absolutely right in his attempt to return the nation to the principles established by the Founder Fathers, especially the self-evident truths proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed…
When governments undermine or abolish the God-given rights of the people, either by deliberate deception, or the perpetuation of ignorance, for the sake of acquiring personal or political power or profit, it nullifies intelligent consent of the governed. In such a time as this, much of the American public has seemingly consented to abortion being the “normal” way of disposing of the inconvenient consequences of unbrideld sexual promiscuity. This says more about the level of immorality within our society than the immorality of abortion.
Sexual promiscuity is causal, while the other is the symptom of the cause. Only dealing with the symptoms of a disease and not the cause permits the source of the symptom to metastasize. And, even though most early Christians declared unnatural lust and unbridled fornication to be sins, look where America is in such a time as this. It makes one wonder whether Barack Obama was right when he proclaimed that America was no longer a Christian nation after being elected president. Nevertheless, moral sanity will return to America through people of genuine faith as we return to the first principles that originally made America One Nation Under God.
