Early America

 


America, Zion of God

#CBTB402

Author Kenneth Goff - revised by Pastor Thomas Robb

From the "Forward" by Pastor Robb

I first read America - Zion of God when I was a student at the Rocky Mountain Kingdom Gospel Institute in Evergreen, Colorado. It was 1964 and I was immediately swept away by its content, becoming even more completely satisfied with the evidence that America was not an accident of happenstance nor even the calculated design of men, but was in every way part of God's masterful plan for his people Israel.  Historically, Zion is the capital city of Israel-Jerusalem.  But prophetically, Zion is the Holy City, It is the city set on a high hill, a place where God places His Glory! His people dwell in Zion - It is the appointed place.  

There is something different and unique about America.  History books tell us that these northern and southern continents were named after Amerigo Vaspucci and indeed that may be true.  However, there can be little argument that when a person speaks about America - he is speaking about only one nation - the United states.  In practical definition America is the United States and the United States is America.  And while it may carry a name from the great Portuguese explorer the name America itself holds a meaning of much greater significance - meaning, literally, the government of God! Part of this is easily and quickly recognizable in the last syllable of America - Rica.  Originally taken from the ancient Tectonic, but visible in the modern German word Reich - meaning government.

It is hoped that the reader of America - Zion of God will have a greater understanding and appreciation for America and its divine origin and as a result have a renewed commitment to work for a rebirth of Godly government.

Our Great Seal

#CBTB553

Author: E. Raymond Capt

Much debate has been made over the past months challenging our founding fathers true intentions to form a Christian Nation.

Discussion has arisen over our coinage and the phrase "In God we trust." These topics and an insight to our main American symbol "Our Great Seal" speaks volumes as to our nations founding Christian principles! All of these topics and more are answered by Mr. Capt in a book he first wrote twenty three years ago: Our Great Seal.
... A book that every Christian American should read, consider and discuss - the symbols of our Heritage and our Destiny.

The Great Seal of the United States of America is the symbol of our Nation's Independence. Its design constitutes our National arms. As the National arms, the Seal states symbolically the principles which animated the founders of our Republic. Today these principles are being forgotten. Because they are being neglected, America is fast losing sight of the two greatest forces that motivated our Founding Fathers - Christianity and Patriotism. From these two principles sprang our national constitutional laws, freedom of speech and worship, equality and fraternity.

Without Christianity and Patriotism, America can lose her place of leadership in the family of nations - perhaps, even her freedom. To avert that danger, we must go back to the fundamentals of true Americanism, clearly set forth in the symbolism of the Great Seal of the United States.

America has a Destiny and to fully understand this Destiny one must recognize that our nation and its amorial insignia were not evolved by chance. Our Founders planned well and wisely and were undoubtedly influenced to no small degree (whether they knew it or not) by the All-wise, overruling Divine Providence.

This book details the history of the Great Seal from its beginning, with the resolution, on July 4, 1776, for its preparation, to its final approval, by Congress, on June 20, 1782, following Charles Thomson's report. Mr. Capt calls to our attention the significance of the devices on the Seal embodied in the report:

"From Thomson's 'Remarks and Explanation' it is clear that every device on the Great Seal (obverse and reverse) is symbolic in that it represents another thing. Heraldry itself, is a language of symbolism. Government publications explain the official intent of the symbolical meanings of the various devices of the Seal, however, students of Biblical symbolism suggest that there are other mystical and esoteric meanings hidden in the design of our National Arms. . . . there is cause to believe that there is a deeply religious and supremely spiritual truth incorporated in the Great Seal. This will become more and more obvious as we proceed to elucidate the symbolism of each device of the Seal."
Much detail is devoted to each one of the devices incorporated in the Great Seal and the spiritual significance attached to them. The book also includes a glossary of heraldic terms used in the description of the Great Seal that is most helpful in understanding the many devices that make up the Seal.

A special chapter is devoted to the United states in Bible Prophecy where Mr. Capt quotes from chapters 18, 42, 43, and 49, of the book of Isaiah, prophetic passages which he believes can most definitely be attributed to the USA. Another chapter deals with America's Destiny in which he again goes to the Scriptures to express his belief that America is, indeed, found in Bible prophecy.

Not only an impressively informative book involving our Great Seal, each device and symbolic meaning but, also, an inspirational account of our heritage and destiny.

America B.C. by Barry Fell

#CBTB314

Author: Barry Fell
CBS' 60 Minutes program of 9/15/02: KENNEWICK MAN -- the discovery of a 9,000-year-old skeleton - not only seriously questions the notion that Indians inhabited America first, but is causing an old-fashioned science-versus-religion battle. While scientists are fighting for the right to study the bones, Indians say their religion requires they be buried immediately - so reports 60 Minutes' Lesley Stahl. ... America B.C.(Barry Fell) was uncovering this some 27 years ago!

This highly and widely acclaimed book provides substantial evidence that anglo Europeans were living and trading in America 4500 years before Columbus.

When Barry Fell's AMERICA B.C. first exploded on the literary scene it was acclaimed by critic's as " ...The first major work to penetrate the mysteries of ancient European inhabitants in America" and it's support has grown even stronger over the years. It has long been taken for granted that the first European visitors to American shores either sailed with Columbus in 1492, or with Norseman like Lief Erickson a full five centuries earlier. But the history of America before that date has remained, so far, lost in native Indian legends.

This was the case until the late Harvard Professor Barry Fell uncovered evidence, including astonishing new discoveries, to replace those legends with myth-shattering fact. Illuminating, authoritative and enhanced with over 100 pictures, AMERICA B.C. describes American inscriptions, some of them known for a century or more, that turn out to have been written in ancient scripts of a type only recently deciphered in Europe or North Africa.

Thus the truth has slowly come to light, ancient history is inscribed upon the bedrock and buried stone buildings of America, and the only hands that could have inscribed it were those of ancient people. America, as we now realize, is a treasure house of records of man's achievement upon the high seas in bygone ages. Even more so are our inscribed rocks and tablets a heritage from a forgotten era of colonization. They tell us of settlers who came from the Old World and who remained to become founding fathers of some of the Amerindian nations.

"Now, thanks to the genius of a single man...We must include in our American Heritage - Fighting Celts from Spain...daring Semitic Seafarers from Carthage, Libya and Egypt. Who knows how many others will be added before the end of Barry Fell's epic voyage into the past!" - Reader's Digest

"A stunning book...an authentic landmark...America B.C. destroys the premise of every previous text." - Peter Tompkins, author of Secrets of the Great Pyramid

The Bulletproof George Washington

#CBTB561

Author: David Barton

An exciting and encouraging story of God's intervention on behalf of the Father of Our Country during the French and Indian War that once appeared in many history books but has since disappeared.

FROM THE BACK COVER

George Washington's part in a July 9th, 1755, battle in the French and Indian War is indisputably one of the most significant events of his early years; his life literally hung in the balance for over two hours. This dramatic event helped shape his character and confirm God's call on him.

During the battle, the 23-year-old Colonel Washington had ridden to and fro on the battlefield, delivering General Braddock's orders to the troops. Specifically targeted by the Indians because he was an officer, Washington found himself in great peril. In fact, of the eighty-six American and British officers, sixty-three were casualties; Washington was the only officer on horseback not shot down.

This book will captivate you with the thrilling details of that battle and of Washington's gratitude to God for his protection. You'll read his personal account of the battle and excerpts from his letters to his family where Washington tells them of God's deliverance.

This account of God's miraculous care of Washington and of Washington's open gratitude for God's Divine intervention could be found in many student textbooks until 1934; however, today few have ever heard of it. This edition will help restore some of our lost American heritage.

Original Intent

#CBTB562

Author: David Barton,

David Barton scores another one for the Christian Patriot in this 540 page expose' of how the highest court in the land - the United States Supreme Court - has reinterpreted the Constitution, diluting the Biblical foundations upon which it was based.

FROM THE BACK COVER

"The fundamental principle of our Constitution enjoins that the will of the majority shall prevail." - George Washington

In their own words, the Supreme Court has become "a national theology board," "a super board of education," and amateur psychologists on a "psycho-journey." The result has been a virtual rewriting of the liberties enumerated in the Constitution.

A direct victim of this judicial micromanagement has been the religious aspect of the First Amendment. For example, the Court now interprets that Amendment under:

a "Lemon Test" absurdly requiring religious expression to be secular, an "Endorsement Test" pursuing an impossible neutrality between religion and secularism, and a "Psychological Coercion Test" allowing a single dissenter to silence an entire community's religious expression.

Additional casualties of judicial activism have included protections for State's rights, local controls, separation powers, legislative supremacy, and numerous other constitutional provisions. Why did earlier Courts protect these powers for generations, and what has caused their erosion by contemporary Courts?

Original Intent answers these questions. By relying on thousands of primary sources, Original Intent documents (in the Founding Father's own words) not only the plan for limited government originally set forth in the Constitution and Bill of Rights but how that vision can once again become reality.

America's Godly Heritage

#CBTB564

Author: David Barton,

This booklet is a partially edited version of the video cassette of the same title. It makes a handy addition to the video or stands on its own in its factual account of the beliefs of the Founders concerning the role of Biblical principles in education, government and public affairs.

FROM THE BACK COVER

America's Godly Heritage clearly sets forth the beliefs of many of the famous Founding fathers concerning the proper role of Christian principles in education, in government, and in the public affairs of the nation. The beliefs of Founders like Patrick Henry, John Quincy Adams, John Jay, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, George Mason, and many others are clearly presented.

The California Mission Story (VIDEO)

#CBTB568

Author: Covenant Productions by E. Raymond Capt

Pictorially visit each of the 21 prominent and restored California Missions as you follow the Royal Road pioneered by the Spaniards when they colonized California in the name of their king. The road started as a 650 mile foot trail connecting the chain of missions established between San Diego in the south and Sonoma in the north. As the mission settlements grew, traffic increased and the narrow trail became a well traveled road.

The primary purpose for making this film was the desire, on the part of the maker, to present to the viewer a brief, accurate account of the story of the Spanish conquest and of the courageous padres who brought Christianity and civilization to the Pacific Coast.

Women's  Life in Colonial Days

#CBTB569

Author Carl Holliday

pages 319

What was life like for women in the American colonies? Did colonial women lead the sober, cheerless lives of hardship often portrayed by later generations? Professor Holliday's classic study, drawn from a wide range of sources, suggests otherwise.  Dispelling images of the lives of colonel women as endless gloom and suffering, accompanied by fear of pleasure, and repression of normal emotions, Holliday shows that colonial women knew love and passion, felt longing and aspirations, used the heart and the brain, and often led rich, fulfilling lives.

Studying letters, diaries, and contemporary accounts, Holliday finds that the women of the New England and Southern colonies often were well educated, politically astute, charming hostesses under the most adverse circumstances, and capable of managing their husbands' or their own businesses when desired or necessary..  Life as a colonial woman was difficult, however, in the best of circumstances, and this fascinating glimpse of the day to day lives and activities of colonial women reveals the hardships they endured, regardless of social station.  The rigors of childbirth, the deaths of children, the ravages of war, accidents, and disease and the sheer physical strain of colonial life weighed upon all women. The author of this book would agree with world traveler and commentator on America during the 1800's Alex Toqueville, that aside from Christianity, the strength of America lies in the strength of her women.

Noah Webster's Advice to the Young and Moral Catechism

#CBTB542

Author: Noah Webster

This book contains two historical reprints which Founder Noah Webster wrote to "enlighten the minds of youth in religious and moral principles and restrain some of the common vices of our country."

FROM THE BACK COVER

Noah Webster was an influential Founding Father, serving as a soldier during the American Revolution and as a legislator in two states after the Revolution. He was the first Founding Father to call for a Constitutional Convention and was personally responsible for the copyright clause found in Article I, Section 8, of the U.S. Constitution.

Like most of the Founding Fathers, Webster understood that the ability of our new government to endure would depend upon the quality of our educational system. Consequently, he became a leading educator and for six decades authored textbooks designed to transmit to subsequent generations the principles embodied in the government he had helped to create.

Two works he authored to help future generations were his Moral Catechism (1783), and later his Advice to the Young (1832), of which he explained:

"The Advise to the Young it is hoped, will be useful in enlightening the minds of youth in religious and moral principles, and serve, in a degree, to restrain some of the common vices of our country. . . . To exterminate our popular vices is a work of far more importance to the character and happiness of our citizens than any other improvements in our system of education."

These two powerful works are reprinted in this booklet and are beneficial not only for America's current students , but for former students never exposed to these works in their school textbooks.
