So I was remonstrated that I should get on board and use (or at least recognize the validity of using) Saul Alinsky’s strategy as a means of returning this country back to its constitutional roots and reining in this corrupt government.

Maybe I should, maybe not. But first I ought check just exactly where Alinsky stood before I do that.

Well, Saul Alinsky stated this:

“Lest we forge at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgement to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins- or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom—Lucifer.”1

That really doesn’t sound right to me, because the Founders stated this:

“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.”2

And this:

“We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, . . .”3

Biblically, and all the Founders knew the Bible as history proves that, the terms “Creator” and “Supreme Judge of the world” are express terms used to identify none other than the LORD God (who even Jefferson acknowledged to exist), and specifically the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the WORD.

So, I should follow the teachings of a man who honors Satan, who rebelled against the LORD God, when the Founders acknowledged the LORD God as being the only one able to make them a nation?

And this from someone who claims to be a Baptist?

Who is greater: The LORD God who granted the Founders genuine and sincere request, or Satan who Saul Alinsky acknowledged to be his mentor?

You decide.

And while you are deciding, determine whether you can use the Devil’s tactics and strategy to defeat the Devil.

I know where I stand, and where Wayne Fincher stands.

I leave you with Benjamin Franklin’s admonishment:

“And have we forgotten that powerful Friend? Or do we imagine that we no longer need His assistance? I have lived, sir, a long time and the longer I live the more convincing proofs I see of this truth: that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid? We have been assured, sir, in the sacred writings that ‘except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it.’ I firmly believe this and I also believe that without His concurring aid, we shall succeed in this political building no better than the builders of Babel.”4 5
