HOUSE MUST NOT BE DIVIDED ON HUMAN TERMS OR WHATEVER TERMS.
Let me remind the Fathers, Leaders, and the People of PNG. We must know where we come from, where we are today and where we are going forward as a Country.
Before 1975 we were divided. We were united as one Nation, one Country and one people at the independence Hill we gained our Independence without a shed of blood and raised our National Flag, our banner, red, black and gold on high.
It was when our Country was praiyed and first dedicated to God in complete oneness from all across the land as a united independence state and nation.
What our forefathers have joined together must not be broken regardless on what ever reason to divide. because
Our Nation was given to God as one complete Country back in 1975.
Our late Founding Father Michael Thomas Somare dedicated our Country including Bougainville complete to God in 2007 not broken or divided.
He, Grand Chief Sir Michael Somare signed the Covenant between PNG and God on 26 August 2007.
That is why 26 August was later chosen as National Repentance Day.
What happened:
26 August 2007 - At Parliament, as Prime Minister, Somare signed a written covenant document dedicating Papua New Guinea to God - the God of Israel, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
5 September 2007 - Just after signing, he prayed this prayer on behalf of the nation at National Capital:
"Now, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the power of the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, I the Prime Minister and Founding Father of Papua New Guinea on behalf of the People of Papua New Guinea repent our iniquities and transgressions, and rededicate our nation to your Almighty God.
I renounce the worship of all IDOL and all EVIL gods. I renounce all covenants with the evil spirits and demonic powers. I renounce and reject all their actions and I reverse all their evil effects.
Today, as the Prime Minister of Papua New Guinea; and on behalf of the people and the nation of Papua New Guinea, I make this New Covenant with you and Almighty God, we acknowledge you as One and the ONLY God, we acknowledge you as the only God in whom Papua New Guinea stands." Amen.
So when people say PNG is a covenant Christian nation - they trace it back to:
1975 - Somare declared at Independence Hill: No human wisdom can hold 1000 tribes and 800 languages together, the nation must be anchored in God alone.
2007 - He formalized it by signing the covenant and renouncing all other covenants.
To conclude, what was given to God must not be taken back and be broken. We must bind ourselves to the covenant
and be faithful, be truthful to our fathers had done with God.
PNG must not be divided at any cost.
The House must not be DIVIDED.
