"Ephesians 6:14 -- Stand firm therefore, HAVING GIRDED YOUR LOINS WITH TRUTH, …."

Your loins are girded, not with truth, but with the gross idolatry of Capitalism, Americanism, Conservatism, and Republicanism.

Girding your loins in Truth means to receive Jesus in your heart and to be transformed by the Holy Spirit and the divine revelations of God contained in the Holy Scriptures. You are a confused old man who tries to use the Holy Scripture and name of God to advance your gross political and nationalistic idolatry. Jesus is the source of all true "core values" and through him you become transformed into the image of God. Core values is not something that you're born with through the flesh of man but something that comes by being born again through the Word of God. Repent of your idolatry and put your faith in Jesus and you will find eternal core values and not values shaped by politics, and culture and misplaced human emotions. 'Be ye not conformed to this world but be transformed that you may know the good, acceptable and perfect will of God. Cast down all these foolish imagination and every high worldly thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God.'

Core Values and broken humanity

Man is born broken and needs fixing. No one is born with eternal "core values" that are capable of fixing his inherent brokenness. Sin has corrupted man and deformed the image and likeness of God in creation. So how can man be fixed and filled with the core values of his creation? Can man fix himself as you are implying? Can the teachings of a broken Jefferson, a broken Franklin, a broken Paine, a broken Washington , a broken Shakespeare fix man's innate brokenness? All of your writings imply that these broken men with their imperfect political messages can restore man and give him "core values". They are blind men trying to lead other blind men. There is only one solution to the brokenness of man, Jesus Christ! The shed blood of Jesus on the cross is the only power that can restore man's brokenness and restore true core values. These core values are restored when man's mind is renewed by the power of the Holy Spirit and the revelations in the Word of God--holy Scriptures.

Unclewest, you have been led into a false political, social and theological idolatry that lacks the power to restore broken America. The only source of restoration for America and every nation is Jesus Christ. He is God the father solution for sinful broken humanity. This is the core problem with American and every other nation today. Individual men and women must be restored to the image and likeness of God through cross of Jesus. If America is to every have true greatness, her people must come to the cross of Jesus. The true enemies of America are those who hate Jesus and work to turn men from Jesus---the only medicine for America's brokenness.
