Government & Christianity

Todays popular thinking and ideals lean towards people separating Christianity and Government, many now believe there is no place for Christian morals, and ethics in todays Government. The results of this line of thinking is showing up all over in today's society. We have taken prayer out of schools, we have allowed abortions, and now the sanctity of marriage is under attack with same sex partners now wanting laws passed to enable them to marry legally. America will not and cannot stand without God. The moral decay of society has shown its ugly face all over the front pages of every paper in every city of every state, we can no longer turn on the nightly news without seeing the signs of a nation without God, school shootings become almost a monthly occurrence, fatherless children turning to gangs as their role models, schools handing out birth control, etc... What will it take to become a Godly nation again? Becoming 'Morally Correct' not 'Polotically Correct'. -Brian Klinckhardt.

The Supreme Court in 1892 cited 50 historical examples to prove America was indeed a Christian nation. "It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not be religionist, but by Christians; not on religion, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ! For this very reason peoples of faiths have been afforded asylum, and freedom of worship here." -Patrick Henry America was born a Christian nation. American was born to exemplify that devotion to the elements of righteousness which are derived from the revelations of the Holy Scripture. -Woodrow Wilson George Washington ended a prayer in 1752 with these words: "..Let me live according to those holy rules which Thou hast this day prescribed in Thy holy word.. Direct me to the true object, Jesus Christ the way, the truth and the life. Bless, O Lord all the people of his land." Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, and that His justice cannot sleep forever. -Thomas Jefferson No people can be bound to acknowledge and adore the invisible hand which conducts the affairs of men more than the people of the United States. Every step by which they have advanced to the character of an independent nation seems to have been distinguished by some token of providential agency.. -George Washington Whereas, it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly implore His protection and favor... -George Washington In the beginning of the contest with Britain, when we were sensible of danger, we had daily prayers in this room for divine protection. Our prayers, sir, were heard and they were graciously answered. All of us who were engaged in the struggle must have observed frequent instances of a superintending Providence in our favor... Have we now forgotten this powerful friend? Or do we imagine we no longer need His assistance? I have lived, sir, a long time, and the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth: that God governs his affairs of man. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, it is probable that an empire can rise without His aid? -Benjamin Franklin We submit our persons, lives and estates unto our Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings and Lord of lords and to all those perfect and most absolute laws of His given us in His holy Word. - Rhode Island Charter 1683 To advance the enlargement of Christian religion, to the glory of God Almighty -The New England Charter Being thus arrived in a good harbor and brought safe to land, they fell upon their knees and blessed the God of heaven.. - Governor Bradford The first and almost the only book deserving of universal attention is the Bible. -John Quincy Adams Our laws and insutitions must necessarily be based upon and embody the teachings of The Redeemer of mankind. It is impossible that it should be otherwise, and in this sense and to this extent our civilization and our institutions are emphatically Christian... This is a religious people. This is historically true. -The Supreme Court Decision 1892 -Church of the Holy Trinity vs. The United States
