God bless America,

Land that I love,

Stand beside her and guide her

Thru the night with a light from above.

From the mountains, to the prairies

To the oceans, white with foam,

God bless America,

My home sweet home.

God bless America,

My home sweet home

As you enter the Supreme Court courtroom, the two huge oak doors have the Ten

Commandments engraved on each lower portion of each door.

As you sit inside the courtroom, you can

see on the wall, right above where the Supreme Court judges sit, a display

of the Ten Commandments!

There are Bible verses etched in stone all over the Federal Buildings and Monuments in Washington, D.C.

“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, “The Father of Our Constitution”

Patrick Henry

It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by religionists but by

Christians, not on religions but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ.”

Every session of Congress begins with a prayer by a paid preacher, whose salary has been paid by the taxpayer since 1777.

Fifty-two of the 55 founders of the Constitution were members of the established orthodox churches in the colonies.

Thomas Jefferson worried that the Courts would overstep their authority and instead of interpreting the law would begin making law an oligarchy --- “the rule of few over many.”

The very first Supreme Court Justice, John Jay, said: “Americans should select and prefer Christians as their rulers.”

How has it gotten to the point that everything we have done for 220 years in this country is now suddenly wrong and unconstitutional?

• It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God. Therefore, it is very hard to understand why there is such a mess about having the Ten Commandments on display, or “In God We Trust” on our money, and having God in the Pledge of Allegiance.

Why don’t we just tell the other 14% to Sit Down and Be Quiet!!!!

WHAT CAN BE DONE TO HELP AMERICA CHANGE HER COURSE?

• MATT.5:13, “Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.”
