NO VIRTUE, NO LIBERTY

In 1819, John Adams wrote to Jefferson:

Have you ever found in history, one single example of a nation thoroughly corrupted that was afterwards restored to virtue? … And without virtue, there can be no political liberty. … Will you tell me how to prevent luxury from producing effeminacy, intoxication, extravagance, vice and folly? … No effort in favor of virtue is lost.”


My comments: Every Christian should understand that today America is thoroughly corrupted, and as John Adams said, never in history has such a Nation been restored to Virtue.
