In 1919 the Constitution of the United States was changed,
amended, to make the consumption and possession of alcoholic beverages
illegal. Now take a moment to consider this. It is a monumental task
to change the Constitution, requiring 2/3 of the Senate and House to
pass it and then 3/4 of States have to approve it, in 7 years or less!
Then, in 1933 the Constitution was changed again to nullify the previous
change and make liquor legal again! As you can well imagine it made for
some interesting battles on the editorial pages of newspapers. Imagine
if talk radio or the internet had existed!
Spiritually, The Lord’s Prayer is the amendment establishing our true
relationship with “Our Father.” Many within the religious community seem
to have missed the memo, that this teaching supersedes all that came
before, the essential nature of our relationship with God explained
fully, for at a single blow this teaching swept away 99 percent of all the old fear based theology, with its avenging
God, its chosen and favored individuals, its eternal hell fire, as well as all
the other horrible paraphernalia of man’s diseased and terrified
imagination. The Lord’s Prayer states clearly and forever that God is
All-Powerful, All-Present, Eternal, the loving Father of mankind who
heals, loves and guides
all His children. Unlike the Constitution
that is subject to the capricious will of man, the old theology has been
amended by A Power Greater Than Ourselves, sanctified in blood, superseded
forever, love triumphant over fear.
