Today, I am going to continue looking at biblical principles and values used to formulate the governing documents of the United States, with a closer look at the 1844 U.S. Supreme Court decision that set the stage for religious liberty, the rise of the anti-God movement, and what we can do as Christians within Constitutional guidelines to bring these biblical principles back into the schools and our society.
The Supreme Court Justices rules that Christianity is essential to society. They believed that "the government must have an alliance with religion to some extent and that Christianity is indispensable to the true interests and solid foundations of all free governments and that the Holy Bible is essential in the required teaching of Christian moral principles. They stated the government needed to accommodate religion without violating the rights of conscience.
This was the ruling that has guided every ethics and laws since 1844; that is until 1963, when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that daily biblical readings were unconstitutional. But this ruling has been misused for 60 years. It wasn't the U.S. Supreme Court that eliminated the Bible from public schools.
Listen to learn who used their unconstitutional authority to remove the Bible from public schools and how what laws we can use to bring back biblical principles and values.
