American Truism lives on. While the Fourth is very near, it is important at this moment to know some truths. Part One of our Fourth of July Special series from the Watchman Dana G Smith. I give you the Fourth of July and the American Truism. During Division in America, partisanship, and me first; I don’t mind publishing and making these kinds of patriotic truths available right now. We need them. Today with the Biden administration, the attack on the America we grew up has continued. Yet the truths of what we believed still live on in the hearts of true Americans. The Fourth of July and the American Truism proceeds to convince us of what we say, think, and do can affect the nation in which we live. Truisms, proverbs, and axioms have influenced our way of life. We use them to convey a short quick thought. Here is our first axiom, proverb, or Truism! “Righteousness exalted a nation”! With it is another one “sin is a reproach to any people”! While we have arrived in these most turbulent and chaotic times; let us also remember that in the end there is one in the heavens who is the “governor among the nations”! As well and even better for us is another one that says, “the kingdom is the LORD’S”!
Pro 14:34
“A Journey for those who look into the Whirlwind of these Last Days! Bearing the Cross in the War of Ages where Faith is the Victory that overcomes the World.”
“By God’s grace, we endure from faith to faith; day to day and pass by from trouble to endurance to an overcomer!”
“Heralding the Truth of God’s’ Word!”“Life Expression in its simplest form is simply life in words” — The Watchman Dana G Smith

Fourth of July and the American Truism
American Truism, here meaning something “obviously true” as Oxford dictionaries describe it. But as Merriam-Webster says that Truism is “a true statement that is very commonly heard: a common statement that is obviously true”! I remember being told as a boy “a fool and his money is soon parted”! Or another one I learned in the process of adulthood and living life says, “a lie told often enough becomes truth”! Another one growing up was “a penny for your thoughts”! Although today that penny would have become a dollar.
In today’s world the idiom or Truism I mentioned before “a lie told often enough becomes truth” is fulfilled on a weekly basis by the many news outlets and the politics of the day. Another one growing up that met my path along the way was a “stitch in time, saves nine”! While I heard this growing up little did, I know the background of it. According to Quora this saying, axiom, or truism, or proverb dates to the 1700 era French. It relates to when someone died onboard a ship and they wanted to bury the body at sea. It took nine pounds of shot in the sack with the body to weigh it down enough to sink. The last stich therefore was used to close the sack tight and went through the body to keep it all tightly wrapped. If the last stitch were not done thusly then the sack would open, and the nine pounds of shot would be wasted. Today it refers to something that needs attention. But one more truism that is pertinent to the fourth of July is “Freedom is not Free”! Having a dad that was a navy medic in the south pacific during World War 2, plus a grandfather who was in the navy as well this one was also one, I heard. Freedom in America is not Free, it cost the blood of Americans who fought and died for that right to be free.
Very few things represent freedom more quickly than the American flag…especially to me. I took this photo at the John F. Kennedy Museum. The older I get the more I appreciate the truism “Freedom is Not Free.”
Kenny Rodgers, July 4th 2015
A truism can be an arguable offense. While they may sound good and apply to a situation, not all things can be answered fully in short trite sayings. Just like the one above, “Freedom is not free”! Today we have open borders and have had for years and years. Through democratic or republican administrations, the border problem and immigration were never addressed nor solved. Obama’s idea was to flood the nation. Pres. Trump’s idea through MAGA was to protect the nation by having closed borders. Living today in America are a flood of illegals who work and try to sustain their lifestyles in this country. Among those who also came across our border are criminals, vagabonds, and terrorists. But there are many threats to America today including losing our children to liberal, left wing, and anti-American teachers and professors who openly push socialist or communist ideas. In addition, they push anti-Christian ideals, anti-American agendas, and have convinced generations of young Americans of the validity of destroying the current American way of life and vie for a more socialist one. Today in 2018, this very fourth of July this nation is threatened as never before.
However, I am not going to address those issues. Nor am I going to convince anyone to change their mind about America. The division in this nation is paramount to the atmosphere that surrounded the heated issues of the civil war so long ago. On this Fourth of July, I go back to what I know. I also stand knowing where this nation is. It is divided and on the brink of collapse. This division is pushed by radical ideas and those whose anti-American agenda is forward on their minds. Thus, we have ill-advised young people like ‘antifa’ and others whose push to cause upheaval mirrors socialist and communist takeovers of other nations. One of the foremost communists of all times was Nikita Khrushchev who warned America so long ago. It was a function that in the end allowed Russian Troops on Polish Soil. Decades later when the USSR Fell, Poland was at last free from this agreement. They were free from Russian dominance and takeover. At the time of the signing an agreement initially the words of the Russian leader sparked furvor and it became clear that the Russian nation was an enemy, and it became the cold war.
The Milwaukee Sentinel reported on November 19, 1956, the remarks of Nikita Khrushchev at a diplomatic function of envoys from 12 NATO nations and Israel. The place was the Polish embassy reception following the signing of a Moscow-Warsaw joint declaration which some Poles hailed as a virtual declaration of independence.
“If you don’t like us, don’t accept our invitations and don’t invite us to come see you. Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you.” -Nikita Khrushchev
While Khrushchev initially denied the “We will bury you quote” on a visit in 1959 to Los Angeles, he later said in a public speech “We must take a shovel, dig a deep grave, and bury colonialism as deep as we can”!

There are many enemies of America and her ideals. What is more, today the very ideal and purpose of our nation is at threat of being destroyed. George Washington warned us to “deprecate or denounce” the danger of those who would favor “other political systems! Today America is filled with this ill-gotten ideal of revolutions past pushed by socialist liberalism.
“[W]e ought to deprecate the hazard attending ardent and susceptible minds, from being too strongly, and too early prepossessed in favor of other political systems, before they are capable of appreciating their own.”
George Washington, letter to the Commissioners of the District of Columbia, 1795
The more influx of foreigners into this country via a wide-open border means more who do not fully appreciate America. But the America that I knew is now gone. What is left are the remnants of a nation folding itself into oblivion by pride, sin, and unrepentant revolution against all that America was or ever shall be. The past sins of America are there. No doubt, sins and pride of those former who passed this nation on to us are being used to bring this nation down. In the end, though; the American past was a different ideal and experience than today! Whether you think it was better or not, the truth is Christianity has held a foothold in history here in this country. There were simpler times, more morally grounded, and less suited to overthrow the nation that God had blessed. But as this nation fell away from the True and living God to other Gods and many sins; his blessing has left us for we have taken leave of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and his Son Jesus Christ; who is savior of the world!
“Freedom is never more than one generation from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset telling our children and our children’s children what is was once like in the United States where men were free.”
Ronald Reagan
The Fourth of July ‘American Truism’ is part one of our Fourth of July special articles from the Watchman Dana G Smith. This is just a portion of the way it was growing up in the America I knew. Many of things herein is also the story of millions of Americans. While some details may change, the testimony stands as to the American that used to be!
This is certainly not everyone’s story, nor will many agree with this. I strive not to agree with all men but in case of disagreement; to be civil and disagree agreeably!
As for our God and Father and our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ, the Word of God; they stand on their own merit to which I neither apologize for nor will I disown the foundations of it.
Fourth of July and the American Truism
The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.
Psa 9:16-20; Pro 14:34 KJV
The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God. For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.
Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight. Put them in fear, O LORD: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah.
Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.

Thanks Watchman…as a witness to the train wreck known as planet earth. No, freedom is not free. Foreign communists like kruchev are our enemy, but the most egregious enemy is the domestic communist. Born in America, but hating the very freedoms this country should uphold. This pernicious cockroach is responsible for the destruction of America, which is happening right before our eyes. The foolish shall not stand in thy sight; thou hatest all workers of iniquity…Psalm 5.
