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."
