This is the part of American history we no longer teach in our schools. George Washington's FIRST order as commander of the military is going to blow your mind 👇
Breaking: in colonial and early US history, "learning" WAS about the Bible.
We were founded as a Christian nation. Ignore the gaslighting, believe the history.
It’s wild that so many people have no idea that the Bible was used to teach literacy when this country was founded.
Christianity is the greatest source of good in this world - correction, I would say it’s the only source of good. We should use the Bible every chance we get.
It’s wild how so many people on the right have completely abandoned the core, conservative principle of religious freedom.
As you can tell from the comments on this post, Christian Nationalism only works if you completely abandon the Constitution.
Christianity is the reason women are treated as equally valuable in our society instead of subjugated.
Christianity is the reason that slavery was ended in our society.
Christianity is the reason we allow other religions to exist in our society.
Christianity is the reason we have laws that declare the accused as innocent until proven guilty.
Christianity is the reason we care for the elderly, handicapped, and poor instead of disposing of them.
Christianity is the reason we sacrifice for the good of future generations.
So yah, teaching the Bible in public schools is probably a good idea.
"You say you don't go to Church because it's full of hypocrites there? I say you're right, but come anyway, we've got room for one more." - Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
“For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.”
John 3:20
Thinking about this while the gay community shrieks over MLB players writing Bible verses on their hats…
Counterpoint: God-fearing, sound doctrine men run for office.
For the rest of us: instead of covering our eyes, ears and mouth we look at the political arena, like most other facets of our country/culture, as a mission field and get to work.
At some point, actual Christians, not just the ones who call themselves that, are gonna have to opt out of politics for the parties to improve the quality of their candidates. Continuing to insist Christians vote for evil, so long as it’s lesser than the other, is getting old.
Got to meet an older gentleman, Gene, at the gym today because I was wearing my “Jesus Won” shirt; Gene stopped me to say “Amen!”
He’s got his portable oxygen tank, pulse ox and walker making laps around the place.
Say a prayer for Gene today!
Bottom of the 9th, 2 outs, down by 3, down to your final strike … GRAND SLAM‼️
