(Frank this one is for you)

"And God spoke all these words, saying, I am the Lord thy God, which have
brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage,  Thou shalt
have no other gods before me" (Exodus 20:1-3)

This commandment is probably the most basically important of all, because it
was the first of God's Ten Commandments given long ago on Mount Sinai.  Jesus
also said that TOTAL love for God was "the first and great commandment" (Mattew
22;38).

This date, now known populary simplu "9/11" has been called Patriot Day, and
there should be no doubt that the most patriotic thing we can do is believe
whole-heartedly in the one-true God of Creation and Redemption, for our nation
was foundedon belief in God of the Bible.

But our nation today is rapidly becoming a seclarized society, with thhis true
God being systematically removed from all governmental recognition.  The Bible
warns that there be many "that are called gods" but "there is but ONE God, the
Father, of whom are all things" (I Corinthians 8:5-6)

The MOST dangerous of these false gods is one called Allah.  His followers many
centureis ago, conquered much of the known world, largely by the sword,
following the teacings of their "false prophet" (note Matthew 24:11)  One group
of his followers MURDERED thousands of Americans on 9/11, and we are now in a
"war against terrorism."

This war may well be list, however, if it is waged only on seclaristic terms.
There is a very real spiritual motivation for the "terrorist."  based on many
commands and promises in their own Allah-inspired Koran.  But Allah is a
deceiver who claims to be God but who DENIES that Jesus Christ is the Son of
God.

The NAME of the true God  was stressed in His first commandment when He said "I
am the Lord (that is Jehovah, or Yahweh) thy God," not Allah!

Christiantiy is a personal relationship, not a religion
