George Washington
The vast majority of
the Founding Fathers were strong proponents of Christianity, both in their
public and private lives.
Their advocacy of including the Christian Faith in the governmental
process is well documented, as will be seen in the quotes taken from
primary sources. Much
historical fiction has been generated in an attempt to disprove the fact
of our Founders' faith in Jesus Christ, their Biblical worldview, and
their desire to create a government with Him at the center. Those who generate
the fiction of their Deistic/non-Christian, secular belief system, appear
to do so for the purpose of creating doubt about the spiritual allegiance
of our Founding Fathers. The
enemies of truth are attempting to subvert the foundational Christian
structure of our government.
They know that if the people can be convinced that the foundation
of the Constitution was non-Christian, they can then take charge of the
nation's direction.
Unelected federal
liberal judges have been legislating from the bench, usurping the
authority of the Congress and President. Liberals have even admitted that
they could not foist their agenda on the American Public by passing
laws. So, liberals have
hijacked the Constitution by appointing liberal judges who ignore the
Constitution and the body of American case law, which are supposed to be
the sources used to determine the legality of an issue. Instead, they have quoted
irrelevant and non-legal sources like contemporary psychologists or
foreign law on which to base their decisions about American law. These actions are
very different from the oath that governmental authorities take; to uphold
the Constitution. Nowhere in
the Constitution is there any reference to "a right to privacy," or a
"right" for a woman to destroy the life of her unborn child, or the
"right" for a minority to commit sodomy, and thereby overrule the elected
decision of the majority of Texans and Americans. But, since 1947, the Supreme Court
and Federal Courts have systematically stolen the rights of the American
people to self determination.
The Courts have hijacked the right of the majority of Americans to
determine the future of America and to sustain their Christian
culture. The Courts have
given the rights of the majority away to every radical individual or group
that would try to force America to accept their secular humanist and
socialistic agenda. And, that
agenda is in direct opposition to the Christian world view of the
founders, the majority of Americans, and the
Constitution. Public education has
also been systematically hijacked utilizing secularized revisionist
history and replacing the Christian Bible with situational ethics. (The Bible had served as a staple
of public education for over 200 years and quotes from it were included in
American textbooks, like the McGuffey reader and the New England
Primer that was used from 1690 through to the early twentieth
century) By so doing, the
foundational role of Christian thought and philosophy has been depreciated
as the basis upon which our Governmental policy and American culture
rest.
This two-pronged
attack on American culture through the courts and public education has
been very successful because Congress has been reluctant to impeach judges
or challenge one of the largest unions in the nation, the National
Education Association, the teachers' union. Those who desire the destruction
of our Christian heritage and history, do so for the purpose of opening a
plausible argument that the American Constitution was based on a
humanistic and pluralistic philosophy. As such, the words of the
Constitution have been reinterpreted to support non-Christian concepts
under the false disguise of upholding Constitutional
intent. Understanding the
faith of our Founding Fathers is of utmost significance. As a people of law, we recognize
the importance of remaining true to the spirit of the law upon which we
base our social order. The
Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are
the founding documents which represent the spirit from which all other
governmental functions and legal principles flow. A document is only words, but the
spirit of the men who penned these words is the true fountainhead and
embodiment of the fullness of the Constitution. It is clear that the
source from which our Founding Fathers drew their inspiration was from
God, from the Bible, and from their personal relationship with Jesus
Christ. A ten-year research
project conducted at the University of Houston from the 1970s to the early
80s, analyzed 15,000 original source political documents, written by the
Founders between 1760 and 1805.
Researchers were probing for the origins of the quotations most
utilized by the Founders.
They ascertained that the founders cited 3,154 quotations in those
political writings.
The individuals that
they quoted most frequently were Montesquieu 8.3% of the quotes,
Blackstone 7.9%, and John Locke 2.9%. By far, the single largest
source of their quotes was the Bible. The Bible provided the
inspiration for 34% of the founder's quotations in their political
writings. Additionally,
those individuals most quoted utilized Biblical concepts in their
writing. For example:
Montesquieu wrote: "Society, notwithstanding all its revolutions, must
repose on principles that do not change." "The Christian religion, which
ordains that men should love each other, would without doubt have every
nation blest with the best civil, the best political laws; because these,
next to this religion, are the greatest good that men can give and
receive." Blackstone's
Commentaries on the Law were the main source of legal education in America
for two centuries and these volumes contain many Biblical
quotes. The spiritual roots of the Constitution are the God of the Bible, the Bible itself, and those basic and general principles of Christianity as taught by Jesus Christ. The enemies of Truth were unable to combat a democratic republic of millions, all allied together by an invisible coalition as soldiers in the Army of God. Therefore, they had to use a brain washing technique (also known as intimidation by political correctness) of telling us that everything we stand for, and everything we believe, is somehow morally reprehensible and is not "Constitutional." Evil people use
trickery to persuade honest and moral men and women to willingly deny
their Christian heritage. They have used the tools of
plausible fairness and rewritten history. They claim the Founders were
Deists, not Christian. They
claim the colonial religious atmosphere was full of denominational
squabbles and excessive legalism.
They argue if the Founders had intended us to be a Christian
nation, they would have included an overt statement of our national
allegiance to Christianity in the Constitution. Thus, the fact of this omission
must be a statement of their intent to allow and embrace religious
pluralism.
The words of our
Founding Fathers leave no doubt about the level of devotion and conviction
they felt and lived in their relationship to their Christian faith. In the context of the statements
made about Christianity and government by the men who wrote the
Constitution, it is only possible to conclude that they assumed that the
general principles of Christianity were, and always would be, the
predominant concepts by which our government would function. The "establishment clause" of the
first amendment referred to the prohibition of establishing any one
Christian Denomination as a national, state sponsored religion.
Many of the colonists
had come to this country to flee the persecutions of the national, state
ordained, denominations of European nations. Their intention was that the whole
body of scripture would be used as the basis of law and governmental
debate. The First Amendment
was a directive to avoid any narrow, dogmatic denominational
interpretations. The
admonition to consider the whole of the Christian Scriptures is a very
clear theme in the Founder's writings. It is in this refuge of the
general principles of Christianity, and the "establishment clause," that
we can all rest secure against the establishment of a theocratic
tyranny. Misinformation has
been used to convince the people of God to willingly surrender their
Christian birthright and the heritage of our nation and its
government. Examine the words
and faith expressed in the writings and speeches of our Founding
Fathers. Recognize the spirit
that flowed in the men that birthed our Constitution. Rise up in your spirit and be
proud to say to our detractors, "No.
This is a Christian Nation.
You cannot have it. It
belongs to the Lord and to the people of
God."
