Slowly, ever so slowly things grind to a halt. Where is the former power of America? Where is the former greatness, the ability to accomplish and to do great things? First, one power is gone and then another. America is becoming like a Samson whose hair is being cut. Let me explain what is happening.

Your greatness came from your religious roots. From these flowed your vitality. You, however, misjudged yourself. You thought the power was your own and you said, “What need have I of these religious roots? They are from another century. They hold back our progress. They offend the sensibilities of some of our members. We will cut them out. We will limit their growth. We will impede their influence.”

Yes, America, that is what you have done. You are becoming like Europe. You are removing the title religious and substituting secular. Like Samson, you have fallen into the hands of Delilah and she is taking away your strength. Wake up before she cuts off all you hair and delivers you over to your most hated enemies. That is exactly what will happen. Your enemies look on. They watch and wait. It is not yet the moment. You still have some strength but soon, yes very soon, you will be their prey.

Wake up. Wake up. The word religious is fading. When it is totally erased, you will fall. This does not have to happen.
