The Idea of America Rests upon a Sovereign God

Author Amy GreenPosted on September 26, 2022September 26, 2022Categories Discerning Moment

“No human society has ever been able to maintain both order and freedom, both cohesiveness and liberty apart from the moral precepts of the Christian Religion. Should our Republic ever forget this fundamental precept of governance, we will then, be surely doomed.”  John Jay

Without Christianity, there would be no America. 

Had a “wall of separation between church and state” existed at America’s founding we would still be speaking with a British accent. The “wall” exists today only in the twisting of words of misguided court interpretation; it is not found in the Constitution of the United States.  America’s Founders got it right but we have abandoned their biblical thinking, no longer teaching it in our government schools.

 Teach the Children

1.     “Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.” II Corinthians 3:17

2.     God is sovereign over all, including politics and government. 

“Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord…” Psalm 33:12

“For He Himself is our peace, who made both groups into one and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall…” Ephesians 2:14
