THE STRUCTURE OF THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT IS ROMAN

It is not only the imagery of America that identifies it with the ancient Roman Empire, it is also the
structural foundation upon which the government is built. This country was not founded on the moral
laws of the Bible, namely the Ten Commandments, but rather on Roman law that originated with the
pagan Roman Empire. If God inspired the founding fathers to write the Declaration of Independence
and the Constitution of the United States, then He is guilty of pagan plagiarism. These concepts
originated in the ancient Roman Empire!

God’s Word records “God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all” (1Jn. 1:5). It is impossible to believe
that He would pattern His “One Nation Under God” after the evil darkness of the Roman Empire that
slaughtered and enslaved God’s chosen people, the Jews. If God tells us “Do not be conformed to this
world” (Rom.12:2), you can be sure that He does not practice such conformity Himself by borrowing
unrighteous, foundational principles from the heathen. If we can establish that those parallels exist, we
can dismiss the folly of divine inspiration of America being, “One Nation Under God,” for He doesn’t
copycat pagan ideologies and then sanctify them for His people!

Let’s consider a few parallels:

“ALL MEN ARE
CREATED EQUAL”

ANCIENT AMERICA’S
ROMAN EMPIRE ROMAN EMPIRE

This noble phrase found in the Declaration of Independence did not originate with our “Christian”
founding fathers being under the divine inspiration of God. This very phrase was first penned by the
famous Roman jurist Ulpian, and became the highest legal code of the Roman Empire providing equal
rights and freedom of speech for all (The Coming Caesars, pg. 316-317). However, historically we know
that both in ancient Rome as well as in America, the application of this principle functioned in hypocrisy
since it only applied to male, free citizens. Women and slaves were excluded from being equal.
The hypocrisy of both ancient Rome and America’s interpretation of “All Men Are Created Equal,” leads
us to another parallel between this kingdom of darkness (Rome) and the supposedly divinely- inspired
kingdom of light (America) namely,

BOTH EMPIRES WERE
BUILT ON SLAVERY

ANCIENT AMERICA’S
ROMAN EMPIRE ROMAN EMPIRE

Because we deem it to have been an evil empire, we have no real opposition to the horrible history of
the brutal Roman Empire enslaving the nations of the world and using them as slave labor to build the
notorious Roman roads. You have heard the saying, “All roads lead to Rome.” They were built on the
sweat and blood of unwilling slaves. We should, however, be concerned about the equally horrible and
shameful history of America that also came to power on the sweat and blood of (Negro) slavery.

The third President of the United States,Thomas Jefferson, one of the key founding fathers, was
reported to be a Christian. Is slavery, rape, and bastardly fornication acceptable Christian virtues?
