Nation
has fallen away from God
Barack Obama mocking God and past U.S presidents exalting God and
the Bible
Motto
of our U.S National anthem is : "In God is our
trust"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
For
us to understand better let’s see the clear contrast, the believes of past
American presidents and the 44th U.S president Barack Obama, below is Obama mocking the
Bible
“Which passages of Scripture should
guide our public policy? Should we go with, uh, Leviticus?
Which, uh, suggests slavery’s ok? Or we could go … ah … with, uh, Deuteronomy,
which suggests stoning your child if he strays from the faith. Or should we
just stick to the Sermon on the Mount? A passage that is so radical, that it’s
doubtful that our own defense department would survive it’s
application. Folks haven’t been reading their Bible.”
Now
let’s compare Barack Obama
to the past American Presidents
George
Washington –
First President of the United States of America
“It
is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to
obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His
protection and favor.”
In
a speech to the Delaware Indian Chiefs (May 12, 1779), President George
Washington said, “You do well to wish to learn our arts and ways of life, and
above all, the religion of Jesus Christ.” President Washington also said this:
“It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.” Our
first President clearly believed that God governed in the affairs of men and
that man desperately needed God’s guiding light to preserve the nation.
Oh,
eternal and everlasting God, direct my thoughts, words and work. Wash away my
sins in the immaculate blood of the Lamb and purge my heart by Thy Holy Spirit.
Daily, frame me more and more in the likeness of Thy son, Jesus Christ, that
living in Thy fear, and dying in Thy favor, I may in thy appointed time obtain
the resurrection of the justified unto eternal life. Bless, O Lord, the whole
race of mankind and let the world be filled with the knowledge of Thee and Thy
son, Jesus Christ.
– George Washington, Prayer -
Samuel Adams – Signer of the Declaration of Independence
I
… [rely] upon the merits of Jesus Christ for a pardon of all my sins.
– Samuel Adams
We
have this day [Fourth of July] restored the Sovereign to whom all men ought to
be obedient. He reigns in Heaven, and from the rising to the setting of the
sun, let His Kingdom come.
– Samuel Adams
The
name of the Lord (says the Scripture) is a strong tower; thither the righteous
flee and are safe (Proverbs 18:10). Let us secure His favor and He will lead us
through the journey of this life and at length receive us to a better.
– Samuel Adams
The
rights of the colonists as Christians…may be best understood by reading and
carefully studying the institutes of the Great Law Giver and Head of the
Christian Church, which are to be found clearly written and promulgated in the
New Testament.
– Samuel Adams
I have examined all religions, and the
result is that the Bible is the best book in the world.
– John Adams -
There
were even church services held in the U.S. Capitol building in the late 1700s
and they continued until after the Civil War. President John Adams was not shy
in proclaiming Christ, saying, “We recognize no sovereign but God, and no King but Jesus.” And Abigail Adams added, “The Scriptures
tell us righteousness exalteth a Nation.” These
leaders were not ashamed to proclaim their faith in God or His Word. They urged
the nation to follow Christ and His teachings from the Bible.
Congress
printed a Bible for America and said:
“The
United States in Congress assembled … recommend this edition of the Bible to
the inhabitants of the United States … a neat edition of the Holy Scriptures
for the use of schools.”
– United States Congress 1782
Congress
passed this resolution:
“The
Congress of the United States recommends and approves the Holy Bible for use in
all schools.”
– United States Congress 1782
By
Law the United States Congress adds to US coinage:
“In
God We Trust”
– United States Congress 1864
Patrick
Henry said, “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.” And John Jay, the first Chief-Justice of
the U.S. Supreme Court, stated, “Providence has given to our people the choice
of their rulers, and it is their duty – as well as privilege and interest – of
our Christian nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers.”
Thomas Jeferson – President
God
who gave us life gave us liberty. Can the liberties of a nation be secure when
we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God? Indeed I
tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that His justice cannot
sleep forever.
– Thomas Jefferson, Jefferson Memorial
The
Christian religion is the best religion that has ever been given to man
– Thomas Jefferson, Jefferson Memorial
Indeed
I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that His justice
cannot sleep forever.” These words appear at the Jefferson Memorial in our
nation’s capital. Today our schools are almost completely purged of Christian
influence. But listen to the wisdom of Daniel Webster, who stated, “Education
is useless without the Bible.” And Noah Webster: “The Bible was America’s basic
text book in all fields. God’s Word, contained in the Bible, has
furnished all necessary rules to direct our conduct.”
Many
of our great political leaders depended on God’s Word through our history.
Andrew Jackson called the Bible “the rock on which our Republic rests.” And
Abraham Lincoln stated, “In regards to this great Book [the Bible], I have but
to say it is the best gift God has given to man. All the good the Savior gave
to the world was communicated through this Book.” Go to Washington, D.C., and
examine the historic buildings and memorials there.
From
the U.S. Supreme Court to the Library of Congress to the Lincoln Memorial to
the Jefferson Memorial and many others you will find Scriptures, references to
the Bible and Almighty God and depictions of the Ten Commandments. Sadly, many
in our nation have no idea that we were founded in God’s Truth because history
has been rewritten to abide the modern whims of man.
Andrew Jackson – President of the United States of America
“[The Bible] is the rock on which our
Republic rests.”
– Andrew Jackson
Abraham Lincoln – President of the United States of America
In regards to this great Book [the Bible], I
have but to say it is the best gift God has given to man. All the good the
Savior gave to the world was communicated through this Book. But for it we
could not know right from wrong. All things most desirable for man’s welfare,
here and hereafter, are found portrayed in it.
– Abraham Lincoln
I am busily engaged in study of the Bible.
– Abraham Lincoln
Whereas, the Senate of the United States,
devoutly recognizing the Supreme Authority and just Government of Almighty God,
in all the affairs of men and of nations, has, by a resolution, requested the
President to designate and set apart a day for National prayer and humiliation…
– Abraham Lincoln -
Calvin Coolidge– President of the United States of America
“The foundations of our society and our
government rest so much on the teachings of the Bible that it would be difficult
to support them if faith in these teachings would cease to be practically
universal in our country.”
– Calvin Coolidge
Harry S. Truman – President of the United States of America
“The fundamental basis of this Nation’s law
was given to Moses on the Mount. The fundamental basis of our Bill of Rights
comes from the teachings which we get from Exodus and St. Matthew, from Isaiah
and St. Paul.”
– Harry S. Truman
“This Nation was established by men who
believed in God. … You will see the evidence of this deep religious faith on
every hand.’
– Harry S. Truman
Dwight D. Eisenhower – President of the United States of America
“Without God there could be no American form
of government, nor an American way of life. Recognition of the Supreme Being is
the first, the most basic, expression of Americanism.
Thus, the founding fathers of America saw it, and thus with God’s help, it will
continue to be.”
– Dwight D. Eisenhower
– Theodore Roosevelt, President
“I believe that the next half century will
determine if we will advance the cause of Christian civilization or revert to
the horrors of brutal paganism.”
Ronald Reagan,
our 40th President
February
6, 1986: “To preserve our blessed land we must look to God … Let us, young and
old, join together, as did the First Continental Congress, in the first step,
in humble heartfelt prayer. Let us do so for the love of God and His great
goodness, in search of His guidance and the grace of repentance, in seeking His
blessings, His peace, and the resting of His kind and holy hands on ourselves,
our nation, our friends in the defense of freedom, and all mankind, now and
always. The time has come to turn to God and reassert our trust in Him for the
healing of America.”
“The
Congress of the United States, in recognition of the unique contribution of the
Bible in shaping the history and character of this Nation, and so many of its
citizens, has by Senate Joint Resolution 165 authorized and requested the
President to designate the year 1983 as the ‘Year of the Bible.'”‘
– Ronald Reagan
Inside
the Bible’s pages lie the answers to all the problems that mankind has ever
known. I hope Americans will read and study the Bible.
– Ronald Reagan
