Overview
The Purpose Of This Book And Why You Should Read It
The purpose of this book is not to bash, criticize or dishonor the legacy of all these heroic men; nor bring up their sins to light... They were not perfect men by no means because of the simple fact that they were human, but who am I to judge; I don't consider myself better than them. I have asked myself this simple question: what would I have done if I'd been in their place back in their time? I probably and hopefully would've done the same thing that all these outstanding men did, as far as all that has to do on giving birth to this great nation. Nobody likes to live under the iron fist of totalitarian dictators, ungodly monarchies or corrupt governments. I know, I wouldn't like it; therefore I would like to think that I understand their motivation to get rid of that form of governance. Keep in mind that it was not that simple for all these men to achieve this very ambitious and monumental task, it was something never seen or done before. That's what visionaries do, they observe and accomplish the things that simple minded people dream about, but never accomplish; they put everything on the line in order to accomplish it. I say everything and that means their fortunes, honor, livelihoods, and it didn't stop there; their own lives and the lives of all their families were on the line. Just think about that for a moment, the burning desire to be completely free from total tyranny outweighed the risk of losing absolutely everything that they had, even their own existence and the existence of their families. They pursued their dream and plans with everything within themselves until they achieved it. That's how they gave birth to a nation that came to be known as the greatest nation in the history of mankind. In my personal opinion, there has never been another nation like the U.S.A. I believe that historically, the facts speak for themselves very clearly, all because it was founded based on solid everlasting principles taken directly from The Everlasting Word Of Almighty God. Because of this, it became a beacon of freedom in the world. The shinny light
up on top of the hill, the refuge for the persecuted, the earthly promise land for the pilgrims of the world and the land of opportunity for the dreamers.
Therefore, my intention is not to bring any negative attention to their historic work, achievements and success, but acknowledge and accentuate the value in every principle that these men used to found and give birth to this great nation. My prayer is that all of them are resting in peace beside their maker.
