Are We on the Lords Side?
—During the terrible American Civil War a minister remarked to President Lincoln: “The Lord is on our side.” “I am not concerned about that,” said the President, “for I know that the Lord is always on the side of the right. But it is my constant anxiety and prayer that I and this nation should be on the Lord’s side.“
White-washing Rogues and Traitors.
—We cannot too emphatically or too frequently warn our readers against the efforts of trained highly-educated Jesuit writers to pervert British history and British historical biographies in the interests of the Papal System. Within comparatively recent years especially this type of Jesuit writer has become feverishly active, in this connection, by way of contributing articles to newspapers and magazines, novel writing, biographies of historical personages, and histories of periods in our national story supposed hitherto to have been beclouded by the prejudices of Protestant writers. They are now widely advertised by our Jesuitically-controlled newspaper press as the very essence of scholarly impartiality and models of historical accuracy, whereas the truth is that these supposedly historical writings are the most despicably unscrupulous perversions of historic fact and accuracy ever known in the annals of human crime. Outstanding amongst these Jesuitised Romanist writers is Hilaire Belloc, who succeeded so well in whitewashing that most vile and immoral British Monarch, King Charles II., that were one to take this well-known author’s lies and perversions for historic facts, the “Merry Monarch” would have to rank among the most virtuous of our British sovereigns. It surely needs no further proof that a so-called ecclesiastical system that demands this prostitution of genius in its dupes must be from the very nadir of the pit. It must not be thought, however, that this work of perverting history is confined to out-and-out Romanist-Jesuit writers. Anglo-Catholics, as well as Scoto-Catholics, even from the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, are quite as feverishly active in this work of the devil, and they always find book-reviewers in sympathy with their satanic work, who laud such historic perversions to the skies as the very essence of scholarly, historical accuracy. In Scotland these historical perversions cluster around such personages as Queen Margaret, the Consort of Malcolm Canmore; Mary, Queen of Scots, and Prince Charles Edward Stewart, better known through the Jesuitic euphemism as “Bonnie Prince Charlie,” while all who righteously opposed them are described as “ungovernable Scots in the dour Presbyterian tradition in Scottish historiography.” “The Listener,” the organ of the Jesuitically-controlled B.B.C., naturally enough, gives widespread approving publicity in its book-reviews to these despicable and unscrupulous historical perversions. The latest popular instance of this type of Jesuitic whitewashing is the flood of books and pamphlets written in defence of the cowardly traitor, King Leopold of the Belgians. The Romanist Jesuits are afraid that, after all, Britain and her Allies might win this war, and so, in readiness for that, to them, unpleasant and unfortunate event, King Leopold has to be whitewashed, so that as a faithful Romanist he may not be dethroned. Let it never be forgotten, however, that this traitorous King sent General Overstaton to visit Mussolini and the Pope, and two days after his return the King traitorously surrendered.
The Sabbath as a National Day of Prayer.
—One of the most satanically subtle methods employed by the great adversary of God and man—the devil—relative to the prevailing judgment of war, is the setting apart of Sabbath (which has already been set apart for all time for the spiritual worship of God by an eternal Divine decree), for a National Day of Prayer. The whole object of the great adversary in this pretence of honouring God is to guarantee our continued national dishonouring of Him, involved in our rebellious obstinacy in refusing to acknowledge our absolute national dependence on Him, by setting apart a week-day of National Humiliation, Confession of Sin, Petition, Intercession, and Thanksgiving. We are perfectly convinced that were Britain, by order of His Majesty the King, and His Government, thus to set apart a week-day, instead of a Sabbath Day, God would acknowledge the honour thus done to Him, by not merely granting increasing and continued success to our war efforts, but by pouring out upon us, as a nation, the Spirit of grace and supplications. “Them that honour Me, I will honour.” Otherwise by our invading the inalienable Divine claims and prerogatives of the Sabbath Day, in which God challenges a special propriety, through obeying the devil and his duped human agents, we are actually insulting and provoking the Divine Majesty. Thus, under the subtle satanic guise of honouring God, we are, in reality, grievously dishonouring Him. It is high time the nation ceased to pay the least attention to the pronouncements of the Archbishop of Canterbury in this connection, as he is a pro-Romanist and pro-Modernist hypocritical and deceitful enemy of God. Satan is also undoubtedly behind the subtle plausible argument that a week-day of cessation from war work is impracticable at the present juncture.
The hollowness of this objection is seen in the light of the fact that the Government gave a national holiday to all workers on Monday, the 4th August last. The refusal of our Government and nation to set apart a week-day for this solemn purpose is a clear instance of satanic obstinacy, as its setting apart would be a manifestation to all the world, as well as to angels and devils, that Great Britain was not ashamed to acknowledge its absolute dependence upon Him, who “doeth according to His will in the armies of Heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth,” while simultaneously confessing that our individual and national sins deserve Divine displeasure. Thanksgiving is simultaneously an imperative duty in view of how clearly God has shown in this war, relative to Britain, that, in deserved wrath, He remembers mercy, as He has throughout mingled His judgments with clear tokens of Divine mercy and compassion to our guilty but highly favoured nation. When, then, is the whole nation to arise, as one man, demanding the honouring of our Creator, Governor, and bountiful Benefactor, by setting apart a week-day for this purpose, and so hastening the end of the prevailing slaughter of precious young lives?
