(The following is my letter to the editor in response to those readers who are upset that our legislators are watching "The Truth Project" in our State House.)
For those of you appalled at the fact some of our state legislators are watching “The Truth Project” in the OUR Capitol, here's some food for thought…
Our nation was clearly founded on biblical principles. George Washington said, “It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and Bible.” James Madison stated, “We’ve staked our future on our ability to follow the Ten Commandments with all of our heart.”
Many may be surprised to hear the United States Capitol regularly served as a church building, even until well after the Civil War.
Maybe, if we got back to our founding principles and Christian roots our state and nation wouldn’t be in the sorry condition we find ourselves in today.
Let it be impressed on your mind that God commands you to choose for rulers just men who will rule in the fear of God [Exodus 18:21]. . . . If the citizens neglect their duty and place unprincipled men in office, the government will soon be corrupted . . . If our government fails to secure public prosperity and happiness, it must be because the citizens neglect the Divine commands, and elect bad men to make and administer the laws. (Noah Webster, “The History of the United States”)
