"The highest glory of the American Revolution was this:
It connected, in one indissoluble bond, the principles of
civil government with the principles of Christianity." --John Quincy Adams Our government was built on Christianity. It is pretty easy to see from what our country's creators wrote and spoke. Even in the Declaration of independence. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal(1)(2)(3)(4), that they are endowed by their Creator(6)(7) with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life(8)(9), Liberty(10) and the pursuit of Happiness(9)(11)." --Declaration of Independence Note: Below are a few, definitely not all scriptures that pertain, that I found tonight. (1) Deuteronomy 10:17(New King James Version) For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality nor takes a bribe. (2) Galatians 3:28(New King James Version) There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. (3) Acts 10:34 (New King James Version) Then Peter opened his mouth and said: "In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality.

(7) Genesis 2:7 (New King James Version) And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being. (8) Exodus 20:13 (New King James Version) You shall not murder. (9) Psalm 16:11 (New King James Version) You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. (10) Galatians 5:1 (New King James Version) Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. (11) Ecclesiastes 2:24-26 (New King James Version) Nothing is better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and that his soul should enjoy good in his labor. This also, I saw, was from the hand of God. For who can eat, or who can have enjoyment, more than I? For God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy to a man who is good in His sight; |
