George
Washington's Vision
|
"Such,
my friend, concluded the narrator, were the very words I heard from Washington's
own lips; and America will do to profit by them."
|
It
is undeniable that the first two perils have happened. The second was
the Civil War. Are we awaiting the third?

This
nation and continent were destined, by the intervention of Our Lady, to
be Christian. The framers of the constitution meant it to be so and the
Supreme Court confirmed it again and again. Many of the founding fathers
wrote Biblical tracts.
John Quincy Adams said: "The highest glory of the American Revolution was that it connected an indissoluble bond, the principals of civil government with Christian government!" Today we have those who say and teach the opposite. However, the very first Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, John Jay, one of three men most responsible for the constitution said, "Providence has given to our people the choice of these rulers and it is the duty as well as the privilege and interest of a Christian nation to prefer Christians for their rulers. |
In 1796, the United States Supreme Court, in Runkel vs. Winemiller ruled: "By our form of government, the Christian religion is the established religion and all sects and denominations of Christians are placed on the same equal footing. James Madison, the chief architect of the constitution said: "We have staked the whole future of the American civilization not upon the bowers of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all our political institutions upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves according to the The Ten Commandments of God." |
