The American Covenant: One Nation Under God V1
About this book
This is the LDS Edition of THE COVENANT which was featured on Glenn Beck radio and TV and which soared to #1 on Amazon. It is part 1 of a two part series called the American Covenant Series Volume I & Volume II. Vol 1 covers the sacred history of the discovery of the new world through the Revolutionary War. Vol II picks up from there and walks the reader through the miraculous period of the Constitutional Convention through the Civil War and the Conversion of Lincoln to The American Covenant. Ballard's ten years of research on this masterpiece will forever change the way you view this nation. Description Have you ever wondered why your heart is so touched when you hear the playing of our national anthem? Or when you read the inspiring words of our founding fathers? Are those feelings not remarkably similar to the feelings you have when singing a sacred hymn or hearing a profound sermon? Are we just overly sentimental and emotional creatures or is there something more going on? Consider the feelings that permeate your soul whether you are reading the inspired words of Captain Moroni...or General George Washington? Yes, you know this is a "choice land" given by God, but have you ever considered that perhaps there is a deeper connection--even deeper than you ever imagined--between Heaven and America? This book promises to open your eyes to this deeper connection. You will learn how and why ancient prophets--from Jacob (Israel), Jeremiah and Isaiah--foresaw the United States and knew of its divine ordination. Besides the advent of the Messiah, there were few things that almost all ancient prophets saw. America was one of them! More astonishing, perhaps, is the idea that the fathers of the nation-from the Pilgrims to the revolutionaries, to the patriots of the Civil War-knew they had been seen! Why else did the early settlers insist they were the "New Israel"? Why was George Washington's scripture of choice an Old Testament prophecy about the gospel destiny of America? Why did John Adams seek a Restoration, and why did Jefferson directly prophecy that such would occur shortly after his death and that it would rest upon the foundation of the Constitution? These are but samples of the many puzzle pieces that, when properly assembled, reveal the true nature and purpose of America. Other evidences include symbolic images on our dollar bill, miracles in war, a prophet's warning, a president's prayer, scriptures with cryptic meaning hiding in plain sight-pieces, clues, words and symbols that actually fit perfectly together. Upon finishing this book, you will ask, How did I not see all this before? The key to assembling the pieces, to solving the puzzle, is found in remarkable and divine establishment of "The American Covenant."
