All the people were ripe for the organization of a State Government, the Heavens the Earth, the Holy Spirit, & the people were all ready for this work AOur Fathers who made the declaration of independance and formed the American Constitution was inspired to lay the foundation of a Free and independant Government and the Lord protected them in it. But they did not know that they were inspired to do it there was a veil over them that they did not know what the purposes of the Lord were or that he was protecting them it is not so with us we know that God is leading us and is inspiring his people to Esstablish his Kingdom & Government upon the Earth & we know it
