A Nation Divided: United We Stand, Divided We Fall

By Anthony R. Flagg

...It's November 9, 2016 and America is A Nation Divided amongst "We the People." We are called to topple the worldly structures, protected by corrupted foundations, deceptively and quietly waging war with truth. By dissecting and addressing fallacies amongst mainstream media, and the global elitist’s agenda, we will find clarity and truth as we prepare to reestablish our Constitution. With this time of restoration before restriction, we will restore the foundations of Truth and Love, presently eroded by division and deception, rescuing as many souls that will salvation as possible. We will examine the redefining of meaning and the deception tactics deployed to reshape our conscious, unconscious and subconscious states of mind, gaining awareness through many complex truths. The multitudes of which will have meaning and hope for every living, breathing person.

In totality, we will review the record of what has taken place before a Trump Administration, preparing ourselves and country before the mainstream media confusion-chaos-fest escalates. By correcting fallacies spread to divide us amongst each other - through a systematic review of truth, historical facts, past & present issues, and a deep analysis of our division - we will ‘Set the Record Straight’ on where we have been and the “total reset” we avoided with Common Grace.

We must unify together to uproot the destructive worldly forces that seek power, control, and wealth at each of our expenses, supporting the man, the movement & the 45th President of the United States of America - God's anointed Cyrus (Isaiah 45) - Donald J. Trump. Will we heal our nation, fix our eyes, and straighten our paths to unite? As we usher in "The Great Awakening," the greatest test America will ever endure, "We the People," the 99% and overwhelming majority, have two years to right the ship or lose our way. Each of us will determine the future course of this country, and outcome, for better or worse.

WILL WE PASS OR FAIL THE TEST? WILL YOU PASS OR FAIL YOUR TEST?

Show love, give grace, find mercy. Stand your ground and be of one accord.

United We Stand, Divided We Fall...That will be our test to come...

United we stand, Divided we fall

We are called to topple the worldly structures protected by our corrupted foundations waging war with truth deceptively and quietly. By dissecting and addressing fallacies amongst mainstream media, and the global elitist’s agenda, we will find clarity and truth as we prepare our individual and collaborative purposes to restore our Constitution as we retake America. With this time of restoration before restriction, we will restore the foundations of Truth and Love eroding by division, rescuing as many souls that will salvation as possible. We will examine the redefining of meaning, the deception tactics deployed to reshape our conscious, unconscious and subconscious states of mind, and gain awareness through many complex truths.

The multitudes of which will have meaning and hope for every living, breathing person. By correcting the misperceptions that have been spread to divide us amongst each other - through a systematic review of truth, historical facts, past & present issues, and a deep analysis of our division - we will ‘Set the Record Straight’ on where we have been and the total reset we avoided with Common Grace. Visiting our recent history, we will review the record before a Trump Administration takes office and the mainstream media confusion-chaos-fest escalates.

Each of us will determine the future course of this country and outcome, for better or worse.

Foreword

Prior to the release of this book, I was directed not to have anyone read it or copyedit the manuscript, as I proofed the book a dozen odd time’s front to back. What was most difficult, however, was the first person narrative necessarily weaved in between the facts and information that expose the truth, to high degrees. It is not easy for me to write about myself, it is extremely uncomfortable; let alone a witness statement that appears exalting for the purpose of the confession that exposes the grave indifferences I have chosen through various periods of my life. I wrote as lead, not as desired, for I desired much that was not to be so. However, while difficult and humiliating, by the end, I only hope it has helped reshape the perspectives we use to judge others based on the headlines we are exposed to. Our country is facing a current matter of misperception, and subsequently, every written word serves one or more reasons: healing a disunity, rescuing souls, sharing truth, providing information, and reshaping perspective.

While you may wonder why God is spoken of so often through my experiences, and throughout this book, this is the reason why: God is the focal point of everything I see in this world, not just this book or this election, or even my life. I cannot help it. I see Him all around me and I am thankful for every blessing, tribulation, perspective, and learning experience I have encountered. God has never forsaken me, and with honest perspective, any hardship or backwards path I have encountered in life is by my own actions, or meant to help me learn. We have come to a point where we must establish credibility through knowledge, experience, and relatability to even portray a matter of truths to an otherwise unsuspecting audience; of what composition, I have no actual idea. Start understanding how to use everything for anything. You will make mistakes, we all make mistakes. God also works all things for the good. Do not be discouraged, do not be dismayed, and do not live your life in fear – of anything. There is nothing to fear that has not already conquered. Ultimately, I can only pray and hope this heals A Nation Divided…as this world prepares for the greatest test it has ever encountered…

Part 1 - Life is a Trial Period to an Eternity

Chapter 1 - The Armor of God

The silent majority has spoken; the truth has prevailed. It’s November 9, 2016 and America is A Nation Divided amongst We the People. United, there is little we cannot do in a host of cooperative ventures. Divided, there is little we can do, for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and split asunder.¹ For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.²

United we stand, divided we fall. That will be our test to come.

I have never been one to have many direct visions, but when I do, they are powerful. I was five years old when I had my greatest encounter with the Divine, shaping my faith to this day:

My room sat adjacent to my parents, my bed positioned along the far wall, opposite the door. I awoke during the middle of one night sick, needing medicine, as I glanced toward the door and saw two knights, presumably men, dressed in full suits of armor: the Armor of God (Eph. 6:13-17). Positioned like Roman soldiers, they stood shoulder-to-shoulder, tall and strong, guarding the entrance to my room with their backs turned towards me. I remember an overwhelming sense of peace as I rose to my feet, heading for my parent’s bedroom. There was no clear space to walk between, but as I approached, a way parted without any separation of their strength. I remember telling my mom about the knights with a sense of joy and wonder. Walking back seconds or moments after, they were gone. I never did see either of their faces, and have not physically seen them since, but I knew then as I know now: these were my guardian angels.

I would not (consciously, to my recollection) recall this event until a weekend snowmobiling trip with my grandpa when I was 12. Although this was my first time on a snowmobile, I loved being outdoors doing anything that was exciting, exhilarating, or even vaguely considered a sport. We made our way towards two full-size Polaris sleds, received a brief introduction about the rules, and were on a small trail a few short minutes later. Now, either we did not pay attention to the instructor, or were not aware of the open fields, positioned between the trails, which are not trails.

A short while after, with a feel for the sled, we found our way onto an open field, which appeared to be a wide trail. We started to race one another as - with no exaggeration - I glanced down, only to see 91 MPH on the speedometer. I peeked over my back right shoulder, as I had started to pull away from my grandpa, only to see him simultaneously start slowing. Spinning my head around to look forward, a wide dirt road lie split seconds ahead, strengthened by roughly three or four foot high ice packed embankments. It would quickly become an instant fight or flight moment.

Knowing how fast I was traveling, and the likelihood any attempt to stop would mean nose-diving into the far side, I accelerated full throttle, lifting my front skis upon approaching the ridge, hoping I could use the momentum to clear the road on a jump. As my back skis separated from the ground, time seemed to slow down. Perceiving I had cleared the embankment, my front skis struck along the top third at the very last second. I was instantly tossed over the handlebars. Simultaneous exchanges of seemingly never-ending mid-air somersaults were inevitable. I landed straight on my head, pile-driver style, the sled crashing down right alongside me, thankfully, not on top of me.

Lying motionless, I realized seconds later … I was okay ...somehow… I should have been injured, at very least, if not paralyzed or dead? God only knows how much pressure my head and neck compressed at once, even with a helmet on. The only injury I suffered - should it render such a definition - was a headache; the snowmobile had a minor bent front ski. Thanking God, sincerely, I was extremely grateful and instantly reminded of the encounter with the knights: I was protected and safe; God had my back. I knew right then I was not supposed to live in fear, rather, I was supposed to live my life fearless. My body lit up with goosebumps. I could only smile.

Life is about perspective.

This is my assignment.

Chapter 2 - Show love, give grace, find mercy

"In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it – the glow from that fire can truly light the world."³

When you shine a flashlight into a dark corner, is the dark not forced to move for the light, without choice? Not because of the light, or specific light, but because of its source - for without the source, there would be no light.

Though we typically cannot see the wind, do we not know that it exists beyond certainty because it blows the leaves and rattles the shutters?

How would you respond to someone who had chosen not to warn you upon observing a burglar robbing your home, presumably to steal from you? Would that be considered justice, love, or what is correct?

I do not have all the answers. I do not have anything you cannot have. I am no better than anyone is; I am just a man, a sinner who deserves nothing. I have made plenty of mistakes in my life, many mistakes, as I do today. As God knows the totality of such mistakes, should I not use those experiences to help other people?

For There is no temptation that is uncommon to man. Yet, there is one absolute certainty despite that: God has never forsaken me. Not because of me, because of Jesus. I would have nothing, do nothing, and be nothing without God or Jesus. The Word was the word before it was The Word; it is not my word, it’s God’s Word. A sheep does not lead his Shephard; a servant is not above his Master.

Although God often chooses to work through man, God does not need man; man needs God. Without God, man would not exist. Without God, Satan could not exist. God does not call the qualified, he qualifies the called, because the best of men are but men at best. Do you understand the difference? Any wisdom, knowledge, understanding, or otherwise tangible or intangible possession or gift I possess is not by my own doing, nor is any perspective or viewpoint intended to boast, target, condemn, bear judgment, or self-glorify myself in any exalting nature.

Likewise, having understanding or perception is not prophecy; I am not a prophet. I may speak prophetically at times, but to confuse you into believing such appointment, not appointed unto me, would be a dangerous and costly mistake to others and myself. With that said, you would be wise to heed this advice, ponder these perspectives, weigh these experiences, and consider this understanding, as there is an unflappable light that has been placed inside of me to know, see, and understand many truths that make God known and the ways of this world visible - quite possibly for this very purpose. Everything that precedes and proceeds serves purpose, for that matter, whether I will for it to be included or not - or included, but not:

"And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel. For which I am an ambassador in bonds; that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. But that you also may know my affairs, and how I do; a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord shall make known to you all things. Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that you might know our affairs; that he might comfort your hearts." (Ephesians 6:19-22)

I must testify by which manner I am called to testify, not by which manners best suit me or have common understanding.

Truthfully I speak, because I thirst for truth.

Boldly I testify, because many stroke feathers, leading one another down the road to perdition.

Impartially I judge, because Faith has no feelings and your soul is of far greater worth to me than your personal feelings at this, or any given moment.

Accountability I desire from others, exceedingly unto myself, impartial unto others. For the wise man is meek and lowly, understanding correction in truth is love, forbearing humility for the sake of wisdom and well-being of others.

I find no need to be loved by man. Rather, a constant, never-ending need to show others the love that has been shown to me - whether it is accepted or not. With good faith, sincerely and truthfully, I promise to lead you through personal and worldly matters, showing you the many things, of some things, which I know to be true, should you will to hear it or receive it. There is much change coming and much change needed for a time of restoration before restriction - a Great Awakening.

Satan, the enemy, has created conflict, perpetuated doubt, and redefined meaning while deceiving perspectives by withholding or twisting truth. Many continue to destruct, even by ways of peace, as Satan’s goal to create as many unbelievers as possible remains, destroying as many souls that will not salvation along the way.

I stand firm as a faithful martyr for truth, with a voice that cries out to rescue souls – not in vainglory – but for the Savior that was sent unto this world, to rescue as many people that will life by truth and love; for death is the devils prize. Wherewith Confirmation He was, and is, and is to come, ascending on high and leading captivity captive.

One Christ and one Spirit, one Unit with one Source, God and Father, above all and through all, and in us all, should we will to receive it. Grace is bountiful and never ending with the Gift that was provided to us, and for us, to help one another, loving one as we love the other - as Christ loves us, as Christ loves the church. For every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.⁴

Do you understand how a foundation erodes, crumbling a structure? When continuous penetration is applied relentlessly to the foundation materials, with excessive force. When a foundation erodes, the structure inevitably crumbles. The top of a roof structure is covered, the furthest point from the most important area of stability: the foundation. We the People are called to topple structures, the worldly structures that wage war with Truth; but as the top is hidden, we must apply persistent pressure with a bottom up approach, a counter-strategy, breaking down the foundations that protect the top. While the foundation is the strongest, it is also the largest and most susceptible. The opportunity is at hand to retake what has been taken, to re-establish ways of Truth and Love, to make our calling a constant argument for all that we are in need of.

…Because God is love and love is truth.

Chapter 3 - Perceiving & Believing

What is mistaken about our current situation is that the division created this past election started long before this election, has nothing to do with politics, but everything to do with a 30+ year global takeover agenda, protected by politics, which failed in its final stages of the election. This book is not about politics - or even religion, for that matter – it is about truth, love, and purpose. For the knowledge and understanding to be shared can heal the multitudes of division with reunification of perception, presenting a symbolic set of circumstances, experiences, behaviors, and thought process’ to reshape our perspectives with truth, to various degrees. Everything presented intends to join from top to bottom, working as one system in harmony with, and within itself. Nothing happens on accident, nothing happens without purpose. Should you come to see or perceive, many hidden truths exist within what is written. Like the world in which we live in, the unseen is far greater than the seen. Pay attention.

Many who read from beginning to end with an open mind, and open heart, will be changed for the better, with new understanding and perspective. Some, on the other hand, will put this book down when it gets too heavy, becomes confusing, contradicts their actions, or questions their own beliefs. If you do not understand something, that is okay, keep reading. Chances are, what was confusing will be reworded or repeated later. If you disagree with something, that is okay too, keep reading; this is not about you or me. We are on a power mission to rescue souls and restore a nation that has lost sight of God. In totality, mountains of darkness are about to move as the worldly elitists scatter to formulate their next plan, shifting their focus, ultimately clouding some people’s minds. Believer or non-believer, republican, democrat, or libertarian, I pray and plead it will move mountains in you, not clouds over you. Nevertheless, not as I will or control, but only as far as I am able.

The following questions intend to start stirring your perspective on why you believe what you believe, regardless of what you actually believe:

1. Do you believe in God? Why or why not? What experiences and perspectives have shaped your reasoning? You may not even be reading this if not, but either way, be honest with yourself. Regardless, I am not applauding or judging you. Many who are first shall be last and many who are last shall be first. However, and again, do we not know that the wind exists with certainty because it blows the leaves and rattles the shutters?

2. If you do not believe in God, do you want to, but do not know where to start or what to believe? If you will keep your heart open, I am going to do my best to help you understand or relearn what was lost, hidden, or incorrectly learned; you are only one-step away from grace.

3. Do you believe in God, but feel ashamed, weary, or not good enough? While you cannot boil an egg with lukewarm water, if not once lukewarm, would the water ever boil? If you are wavering, calm your mind and tame your fears with prayer, that flickering flame will hopefully spread into a blazing fire. Do not give up, have hope. There is nothing to fear when God is for us, for who can be against us? No one. While I am not perfect, He is, and I am His.

God is love and love it truth.

Love is gracious, merciful, forgiving, compassionate, patient, kind, respectful, and sincere. Love is not boastful, rude, mean, selfish, angry, lustful, deceitful, or evil, among much else. Love is everlasting. It endures all things and hopes all things; love is everything. For love is the foundation of the world, as God is the foundation of creation; likewise, Jesus is the cornerstone of such foundation, the way to salvation.

Alpha and Omega, beginning and the end. God does not lose. The Master Mathematician, Scientist, Chemist, Physicist, Biologist, and every other –ist, -er, or -ology created by, and in, His master plan. God is the Holy Lord of Hosts, the Creator of all; we are His guests. As we did not create the world we came into, it can only mean we owe respect, at minimum, to the one who created us, as He created such place, planning us in His perfection, knowing you Before you were in the womb. God created man to be free, with free will, the greatest rights endowed by our Creator. Satan knows he cannot win, and has little time, but unsaved souls can be self-destructed.

Through free will, Satan deceived man, man sinned, and generations of man following Adam and Eve were subsequently sinners. The wages of sin are death, as God is Holy; therefore, God does not sin. However, how would it be pleasing to God, who created us, that we all be condemned to death for our sins? As we surely are all sinners, would not every person fall short, rendering therefore no such purpose for man? Even more, if we were all condemned to death, and thereby cast into hell, would that not be infinite victory for Satan? Heaven forbid.

As the blood of animals could not take away the sins of man (Old Testament), God sent his Son (New Testament), a permanent sacrifice, the Lamb that was slain, with equal attainability for anyone and everyone that should call upon His name. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16). We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Salvation is simple, if we so choose.

To deny the Son is to deny the Father by whom the Son was sent. To deny our Savior is to deny our own wrongdoing, and thus we cannot enter into eternal life without Jesus Christ. For God has no need for man, but man for God. Nobody is perfect; nobody has all the answers. Christian, non-Christian, Atheist, Buddhist, Muslim, etc. sin does not discriminate based on belief. We are all sinners because of free will. We cannot truly believe we do not sin, even saved, and we cannot make people believe they must lead a sin-free life; this drives people away from Christ, who is salvation. Because of such imperfection, grace truly wins every time and the love God has for us is abundant, rich, and everlasting. For the forgiveness, grace, mercy and love that all who know Jesus know to be true is why we give Him glory, praise, and honor.

Through free will, the ultimate choice we freely choose is life or death, although many do not perceive it as fact. Life is a trial period to an eternity and two pre-destined options of eternal transcendence exist: Heaven and hell. There is a heaven and there is a hell. Again, hell is a geographical location that most definitely exists. There is no purgatory, that is for sure, and you are not here to become a tree. Life happens on purpose. No one’s here because they should not be, no one has experienced their circumstances to only endure a life of suffering or triumph.

Life too is about perspective, and the basis of true perspective is the foundation of God, which is truth. God who not only exists, but is constantly involved within everything - not in everything - but ever present, everywhere - all the time - whether we perceive it, believe it, or not. God does not want or expect us to tip-toe around, afraid to speak or act, because of the mistakes we could make, or have made; we are called to live freely, to love one another - To seek him, find him, and make him known. Sometimes, after attempting to open our eyes through subtle means, God’s left with no choice but to bring about harsher means in order for us to receive mercy now, if we so choose to perceive the correction. Because of this act of love for us, sometimes we choose to become angry with God when he is actually trying to help us.

You see, most people are afraid of offending one another, being persecuted, or not having friends – life is like a popularity contest to some - when the wise man walks alone, and the fool is found in a crowd. Times like these, it is easy to sway back and forth, wavering from side-to-side. No matter how you have swayed, or stationed, be not weary of correction. For who so God loves he corrects. This is mercy! Would we not rather have a chance to correct our wrongdoing now, or see how we can use our wrongdoing to help others, instead of when the door slams shut and we stand to tell our story on judgment day? If correction on a matter of truth or God’s law offends you, understand that:

a) I did not make the law; I bear witness to the law.

b) I care more about your soul, the truth, and this nation than I care about your personal feelings and…

c) I do not judge or condemn you either way. I only ask that you read with an open mind. You will come to find out that I am extremely impartial.

While works can never replace faith, faith without works is hypocrisy. Works are
