‘One Nation Under God’ OR ‘A Nation Divided Against Itself’

May 16, 2026 / By Nemisistar / Biblical Light

“Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.” Jesus Christ – Matthew 12:25

President Abraham Lincoln quoted this in reference to the nation of America being divided during Civil War.

An early pledge was created in 1887 by Captain George T. Balch, a veteran of the Civil War, which was recited until the 1923 National Flag Conference, read:

“We give our heads and hearts to God and our country; one country, one language, one flag!”

The pledge that later evolved into the form used today was composed in August 1892 by Francis Bellamy (1855–1931)…

Bellamy’s original Pledge:

”I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all.^”

indivisible, not divisible, not capable of being divided.

The phrase “one nation, under God” was incorporated into the Pledge of Allegiance on June 14, 1954. This was based on President Lincoln’s words, “under God”, added as defining words meant to set the US apart from other nations.

“Your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His Face from you, that He will not hear… None call for Justice, nor do any plead for Truth: they trust in vanity and speak lies, they conceive mischief and bring forth iniquity… The way of peace they don’t know and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made themselves crooked paths: whosoever goes therein shall NOT know PEACE.” Isaiah 59:1-8

Prophecy Monthly – May 2024

June 12, 2024 / By Prophecy / Prophecy News

May was another month of hypocrisy. After passing the Foreign Aid Bill in April, Biden ‘threatened’ to withhold weapons from Israel if they went into Rafah in Gaza. Israel went into Gaza, killed 45 civilians in one attack and Biden’s White house responded that no ‘red-lines’ had been crossed by the killings.

Likewise, the Roman Catholic Church has been claiming to be transparent in regards to the Child Sex abuse scandal, yet in May the Louisiana State police used a search warrant to acquire documents for their ongoing investigation. Why didn’t the church just hand them over? Meanwhile, the attorney general of Washington State accused the Roman Catholic Church of stonewalling his investigation into the child abuse scandal.

The following map is a summary of current events related to prophecy. Below the map you will find the event details and relevant Scriptural references. Many people have been taught God’s Word in the past tense. This is incorrect. The teachings and scenarios in the Bible and God’s Word are all prophetic, pointing to a future time, and that time is now.

Prophecy Monthly – February 2024

March 4, 2024 / By Prophecy / Prophecy News

February was a month dominated by violence. The Israel-Hamas war waged on. The Ukraine-Russia war continued. Fighting in the rest of the Middle East only continued to escalate. Even the religious houses of worship couldn’t keep violence at bay. There was a massacre at a church in Africa, a shooting at a megachurch in the US and violence at a Mosque construction site in India that resulted in 4,000 police responders. Many speak of peace, but only violence continues to escalate.

Prophecy Monthly – January 2024

February 10, 2024 / By Prophecy / Prophecy News

January was a month dominated by hypocrisies. At the top of the list is the State of Israel. They were once the victims of the holocaust genocide, yet now they have been taken to court under the accusation of doing the very same thing. From there we look at a group trying to ‘rebuild trust’ yet turning to artificial intelligence to do so as well as celibate priests teaching about sex. There is no shortage of hypocrisies in the news from this past month.

Prophecy Monthly – December 2023

January 8, 2024 / By Prophecy / Prophecy News

In December dictionary.com and The Cambridge Dictionary chose the word ‘hallucinate‘ for the 2023 word of the year. They specifically referred to the definition associated with artificial intelligence meaning: ‘to produce false information contrary to the intent of the user and present is as if true and factual.’ Of course they are referring to the artificial intelligence of computers, but humans have been presenting false information ‘as if it is true and factual’ for millennia.

Case in point, the December holiday season focuses on Christmas as a celebration of the birth of Jesus, when in reality this ‘Holy’ day has nothing to do with Jesus or his birth. God’s Word speaks of those who ‘lead his people astray’ and have ‘traditions that make void the Words of God.’ Christmas is a fulfillment of those very prophecies.

What is Prophecy?

A prophecy points to a future event that has not yet happened. Religious leaders are famous for saying something that is not in God’s Word will happen, and then it never does. Two examples are rapture and the physical ‘second coming’ of Jesus. While so called ‘Christianity’ is focused on these ideas made up by men, they have completely turned a blind eye to the actual prophecies laid out by God and His Prophets.

“… the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in My Name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die. And if you say in your heart, How shall we know the Word which the LORD has not spoken? When a prophet speaks in the Name of the Lord, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken, but the prophet has spoken it presumptuously…”
Deuteronomy 18:20-22

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.”
1 John 4:1

God’s Prophecies

God’s prophecies are both warnings and indications of what time it is, in God’s time. He made these warnings all the way back from the times of Adam, Abraham, Moses, the Prophets and Jesus. These warnings and indications all point to the present age, a period of time, not a specific day or hour. It is time to pay attention to the events God pointed to thousands of years ago. We are seeing these prophecies fulfilled on a daily basis with an ever increasing clarity, exactly as He said we would.

“…the Lord knows all that may be known, and He beholds the signs (indications) of the world. He declares the things that are past, and for to come, and reveals the steps of hidden things.”
The Wisdom of Sirach 42:18-19

“Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.”
Isaiah 42:9

“Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done…”
Isaiah 46:9-10
