Imaginary wars and battles -- Fiction; Science fiction
This sign has always symbolized the United States and Yankee
ingenuity. The greatest inventions that have ever been were made
by United States inventors. The airplane was invented here, the
submarine, the great guns which have been used in war, the steamboats,
electricity, radio, and other valuable inventions too numerous to
mention. From what I know and have read, I still hope and believe that
the United States has the brains to outwit the entire world. I believe
this because it is the land of liberty, because there never has been a
nation to conquer it. The United States has never been an aggressor,
never entered a war on its own accord. I believe that God is with us
and that this is the country established for God's kingdom.
I have read the Bible and followed Colonel Gordon's writings and
believe with St. Luke, Chap. 7:22, "Then Jesus answered and said unto
them 'Go your way and tell John what things ye have seen and heard,
how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the
deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached,
but what went ye out for to see--a prophet--yea, I say unto you, and
much more than a prophet, for I say unto you, Among those that are
born of woman, there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist,
but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.'"
I say to you, gentlemen, that I believe there is not a greater prophet
than Colonel Gordon. Further, I believe that he is the greatest
inventor that the United States has ever produced, and believe that
he can save the situation or find some solution of the problem. The
Army Officers made a mistake not to listen to Colonel Gordon when he
offered them advice and told them he could complete an invention to
save the country.
I believe the prophecy of Daniel which has often been referred to
by Colonel Gordon, Chap. 7:27, "And kingdom and dominion, and the
greatness of kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the
people of the saints of the Most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting
kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him." I believe that
refers to the United States. If we can win this war, then as we are
one against the world, it shall be a kingdom of the United World. In
my judgment it would be wise to place Colonel Robert Gordon in supreme
command and follow his instructions to the letter.
