"The Constitution of the United States is a glorious standard; it is founded in the wisdom of God. It is a heavenly banner." Joseph Smith

I don't like to post things about politics too much because some people get offended with certain things no matter what side you are on. So if you are offended by this is apologize before hand but I am entitled, as well as you, to my opinions.

I had to post this. Someone on Facebook posted this and I HAD to post it here as well. Ezra Taft Benson was a prophet of our Church and also in the United States Cabinet and United States Secretary of Agriculture. This is so well written/spoken (it was originally a speech) and although it was given over 23 years ago it still is so important...probably now more then ever! As Brian and I scripture study together we have talked a lot about politics in relation to religion. Ether 2 in the Book of Mormon goes along great with this speech. I think that this so greatly portrays the very thoughts that I have. It just shows how inspired these men of God are, not only the prophets of our Church but as well the the Founding Fathers. I am so grateful to have the truth in my life and the knowledge of the things to come and what I need to do to prepare my family.
