“Had the people, during the Revolution, had a suspicion of any attempt to war against Christianity, that Revolution would have been strangled in its cradle. At the time of the adoption of the Constitution and the amendments, the universal sentiment was that Christianity should be encouraged, but not any one [denomination]… In this age there can be no substitute for Christianity… That was the religion of the founders of the republic, and they expected it to remain the religion of their descendants.”

“The general principles on which the fathers achieved independence were… the general principles of Christianity… Now 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.”

“Whatever strikes at the root of Christianity tends manifestly to the dissolution of civil government.”

This case that this is quoted about is a man who was blatantly attacking Christ and everything that He stood for including His Church, the people.

“Why may not the Bible, and especially the New Testament… be read and taught as a divine revelation in the [school] – its general precepts expounded… and its glorious principles of morality inculcated?… Where can the purest principles of morality be learned so clearly or so perfectly as from the New Testament?”

This case had to do with a rich French immigrant  who wanted to make it illegal to have Bibles at his University. He wanted to teach morals without the Bible, such as they try to today and we see what happens. Society breaks down!!!

“No purpose of action against religion can be imputed to any legislation, state or national, because this is a religious people… This is a Christian nation.”

This Court document is only 16 pages long but there are 87 historical precedents that are cited stating that we are a Christian nation. The Court quoted our Founding Fathers, previous acts of Congress and many other sources.

“Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.”

George Washington (Founding Father/First President of the United States)

This is a letter from John Adams to his wife Abigail about that first meeting of Congress in 1774.

“I never saw a greater effect upon an audience. It seemed as if Heaven had ordained that Psalm to be read on the morning… I must beg you to read that Psalm… Read this letter and the 35th Psalm to [your friends]. Read it to your father.”

John Adams (Founding Father/Second President of the United States)

“Freedom is not free, it is paid for by the currency of Blood.”

Chad Williams (Navy Seal/Pastor)

“Unto Him who is the author and giver of all good, I render sincere and humble thanks for His manifold and unmerited blessings, and especially for our redemption and salvation by His beloved Son… Blessed be His holy name.”

John Jay (Founding Father/First Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court)

“To the triune God- the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost- be ascribed all honor and dominion, forevermore- Amen.”

Gunning Bedford (Founding Father/Constitution)
