Constitution and the laws of the United States government as to whether
they are based on Biblical principles or the ideologies of innovative
deists and other constitutions of other countries. The truth is that the
constitution took many months of careful deliberation by Christian leaders
who believed that the laws of God were the only standards to rule a country.
The U.S. Constitution is the only document to achieve this which
other countries have followed its example of the democracy and Biblical
principles that influenced the building of governments worldwide.
The following are statements that were made by our forefathers who signed
the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence and were great leaders
of the American Revolutionary War. In their unprecedented testimonials are
proofs that the laws are formed from God’s commandments, precepts, and
statutes and the Gospel of Jesus Christ and no other source are they
derived from.
It cannot be emphasized too strongly nor too often that this great nation
was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians, not on religions, but
on the gospel of Jesus Christ. — Patrick Henry, leader of the American
Revolution
It would be peculiarly improper to omit in this first official act, my
fervent supplications to that Almighty Being . . . No people can be bound
to acknowledge and adore the invisible hand which conducts the affairs of
men than the people of the United States . . . . We ought to be no less
persuaded that the propitious smiles of Heaven, can never be expected on a
nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right which Heaven
itself has ordained. — George Washington, first presidential inaugural
address
The general principles on which the fathers achieved independence were . .
. the general Principles of Christianity . . . I will avow that I then
believed and now believe, that those general Principles of Christianity
are as eternal and immutable as the existence and attributes of God; and
that those Principles of Liberty, are as unalterable as human nature. —
John Adams, second U. S. President
The highest glory of the American Revolution was this; it connected, in
one indissoluble bond, the principles of civil government and the
principles of Christianity. — John Quincy Adams, sixth U.S. President
Americans should select and prefer Christians as their rulers. — John Jay,
First Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States of America
and later served as Governor of New York retired from duties to become
gentleman farmer.
We have staked the whole of all our political institutions upon the
capacity of mankind for self-government upon the capacity of each and all
of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves to sustain ourselves
according to the Ten Commandments of God. — James Madison, U.S. President
Our constitution was constructed from the ethics of the Holy Bible. If
there were any questions concerning the originals of the writing of the
U.S. constitution the answers are from the following scriptures:
Exodus 18:21-22, Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able
men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness, and place such
over them, to be rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of
tens: And let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be that
every great matter they shall bring thee, but every small matter they
shall judge: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the
burden with thee. (Election of Governing Officials)
Isaiah 33:22, For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the
LORD is our king; he will save us. (Our three branches of
government-Judicial, Legislative, Executive)
Ezra 7:24, Also we certify you, that touching any of the priests and
Levites, singers, porters (gatekeepers), Nethinims, or ministers of this
house of God, it shall not be lawful to impose toll, tribute, or custom
upon them. (Tax exemption for churches)
Ezekiel 18:4-5, 7-8, 12, 16, 17, Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul
of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth,
it shall die. But if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and right,
And hath not oppressed any, but hath restored to the debtor his pledge,
hath spoiled none by violence, hath given his bread to the hungry, and
hath covered
the naked with a garment; He that hath not given forth upon usury, neither
hath taken any increase, that hath withdrawn his hand from iniquity, hath
executed true judgment between man and man, Hath walked in my statutes,
and hath kept my judgments, to deal truly; he is
just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord GOD. Hath oppressed the poor
and needy, hath
spoiled by violence, hath not restored the pledge, and hath lifted up his
eyes to the idols, hath committed abomination, Neither hath oppressed any,
hath not withholden the pledge, neither hath spoiled by violence, but hath
given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered
the naked with a garment, That hath taken off his hand from the poor, that
hath not received usury nor increase, hath executed my judgments, hath
walked in my statutes; he shall not
die for the iniquity of his father, he shall surely live. (Freedom from
oppression)
This is where we get all our laws; this was how our representatives are
elected into the government. Our freedoms and liberty comes from the Words
of God. How can anyone say otherwise? Or were our forefathers just deists
who thought God was not involved in human affairs? Remember Patrick
Henry’s statement about the established laws that were made by Christians,
and not religionists. It was these laws from the Bible that give a firm
unpenetrating foundation that no other religion is to control the
governing of the American people. When God inspired men to write the Bible
centuries ago He had in mind the needs of man’s existence.
I happened upon a letter written to the editor of the local newspaper the
writer declaring that the “Constitution Has No Mention of God.” I found
that the writer had a lack of knowledge and understanding including
little, if none, U.S. history or Christian history education. The evidence
of Christian foundation that helped build the United States of America
began at Jamestown, Virginia in 1607, fourteen years before Plymouth Rock,
Massachusetts. Not only is there a U.S. Constitution but also all fifty
states have their own constitution. They all have reference to God. The
First Amendment doesn’t mention a “wall of separation between church and
state.” This is due to bad history that breeds confusion and anarchy. The
testimonies of presidents George Washington and Thomas Jefferson support
this. In 1892, the U.S. Supreme Court studied for ten years documents
pertaining to the foundation of God’s word in our society. By unanimous
vote all came into agreement. As Psalm 33:8-12 declares, “Let all the
earth fear the Lord; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of
Him. For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and stood fast. The Lord
brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the
people of no effect. The counsel of the Lord stands forever. The plans of
His heart to all generations. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
and the people whom He has chosen as His own inheritance.” America’s
foundation is being torn apart by rampant sin, addictions, radical
homosexual movement, and anti-God agendas in the government. I choose to
pledge allegiance to the righteousness of one nation under God, and the
American constitution than a few anti-Americans who want to destroy it
forever. Just as Jesus Christ died to make all men free, my hope is for a
free nation under God. Without the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of
Independence, the Bill of Rights, and the Northwest Ordinance our future
will be blotted out from the pages of history the same as ancient Rome
succumbed to centuries ago. Civilizations will come and go but the Lord
and His Word will live on forever.
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from
the law of sin and death. – Romans 8:2
He (Yahveh) that spared not his own Son (Christ Jesus), but delivered him
up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? –
Romans 8:32
