Let me begin by saying that I believe that the United States Constitution is one of the greatest governing documents ever written. So, why would I say it is a blueprint for destruction? To answer that, we must first understand what the Constitution does not say. The Constitution does not say that for it to be an effective governing document, the nation which adopts it must be populated by bible-believing Christians. The Constitution does not say this, but John Adams did. He said:
“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
The historical context of Adams’ statement can only mean he was talking about people who were committed to the Bible as the only infallible rule of faith and practice. The Constitution in the hands of anyone but Christians who believed the Bible is destined to become a handbook for tyranny and oppression.
The Constitution was written by men who could not conceive of an America that would reject Christianity. This assumption is becoming our founding document’s greatest liability.
The Constitution offers no guarantee it will not become a document which enables tyrannical rule. All that is necessary for this to happen is for the people it governs to ignore God and his law. What better reason can there be to point your family to the necessity of Jesus Christ and his gospel.
Our nation has relegated the living God of the Bible to democratic parity in which all religions are considered equal. After all, this is now considered the American way. Christianity has given way to post-modern spirituality. Spirituality means that religion is whatever you want to make it to be. No one shall say that One God is better than another. This is now deemed to be unconstitutional!
We have become like Israel in the time of the Judges. Each one does what is right in his own eyes. This is what our children are taught. This is now the American way. This is the mantra of our media. This is what is changing the Constitution into a blueprint for destruction.
If this is unsettling to you, pray for our leaders. Pray for new leaders of biblical character to emerge. But most importantly, speak to your children about God each moment of each day. Tell them about who he is, what he has done, and what he has commanded. Do it when you rise up, when you walk along the way, when you eat and when you lie down. Be a faithful shepherd to the hearts of your children.

Great article and so true. One of the biggest lies told is that the Founders meant all “religions”, when they were really referring to all the denominations of Christianity.
How true
Jay Younts: an excellent commentary, thank you. For me the HAND WRITING ON THE WALL occurred while watching the 2012 DNC while they voted to keep God and Israel on their platform and then proceeded to boo God. My reaction was dramatic: as if touched by a cattle prod on the back of my neck, I turned off the TV and walked away. I rarely watch any MSM news on TV because half truths are delivered to pump up the commentaries. This nation has fallen far away from the basis of the Constitution and should not be surprised by God’s response. The same behavior has occurred over and over in the Old Testament and the lessons have not been learned, the US is not immune from the wrath of God. May God have mercy upon us and we cannot stop praying for VOICES IN THE WILDERNESS to awaken all us in the USA.
Amen!!
What an awesome article!! God has to be moving because I wrote a very similar article the same day you wrote this!! I will share it with you! I knew the Lord was moving me to write it when I sat down to do it. PRAY PRAY PRAY for our Leaders!! To me, you just confirmed that the spirit is moving and having us to address this issue with the leaders of this country. God Bless You!!

funny, I was just making a similar point on FB where I was disagreeing on a Libertarian Chart describing their position. One of the positions was a ‘separation of Church and State’, which for whatever reason I can’t find that in the First Amendment. Libertarianism wants freedom without God. Talk about Relativism!
Beautifully said, touching and true. This is why the progressive left assassinates the character of Christians that know this truth. They have to get God out of America to completely have control. Stand up for what you believe before it’s too late.
Keep clinging to the Bible, as it knows the truth. If we all followed the 10 commandments, what a better nation we would be.
