Separation of Church and State or Nation Built on Christian Foundation?

Separation of church and state. Sounds legit, right? The church does it's own thing without having the state involved and the state can do what ever the heck it wants without the church getting involved. I mean, that's what the founding fathers wanted from the beginning, right?

Wrong!

The founding fathers founded this nation on Christian foundations. God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit were suppose to be involved in everything. This was supposed to be a Christian nation, yet people have misinterpreted the 1st Amendment.

In "Five Lies of the Century" David T. Moore talks about this certain lie in the first few chapters in the book. He gives quotes of different founding fathers (including the ones said to be Deists) stating how God is to be apart of this nation and how The Word would be a foundation for the nation.

This nation has been slowly dying because of the lies that people have said about this nation. We need to bring this nation back to life and back to Christ before we are destroyed.

We ARE supposed to be a Christian nation! Our founding fathers WERE believers of God and His Word (Old and New Testaments)! Our nation WAS a GREAT nation when we were on a Christian foundation and now we are in debt, have higher divorce rates than any other country, are the biggest drug sellers, and so much more!

We need to get back to the original purpose of this nation if things are going to get better.

God bless!!

How often do you read your Bible? Honestly. And when you read it, do you read it just to check it off your list or do you read it to learn from it?

One of my New Year's Resolutions was to read the Bible every day. I put it on my list because I, as a Christian, should know what the Holy Book says. It's my roadmap to life and my faith. It's the history of my faith. It's the book that God Himself gave to His people. I feel as if I should be in the Word each day so I know what I am involved in with my Christian faith.

I never did actually get into reading the Bible too much growing up though. I would start reading it and then take a break because I found it boring. And a lot of people find the Bible to be boring. Isn't that funny though? I mean, the book given to us by God is found boring? Hmmmm. Sounds a little off to me.

So, this year I decided I would read through the whole Bible (doing the Bible in 90 days reading) and read it like any other book. And I have found it to be a very interesting book (even though I have read many of the stories hundreds of times). What's different though than what I have been doing?

Well, I am putting myself into the shoes of each character. I mean, if I were to live each of their lives, I would not have a boring life. I would have experienced a serpent talk to me, God punishing me, my husband blaming me for his sin, my brother killing me over jealousy (or me killing my brother), me talking to angels about how I will have a son, me protecting angels from getting raped by neighbors, me running away from a town about to be destroyed by God, my wife being turned into stone, me being ruler over my brothers after selling me into slavery, me working for Pharaoh for years, me witnessing plagues upon plagues, me walking across the Red Sea with the water separated on either side of me like walls, and so much more! How can that not be amazing?!

I encourage you to get into the Word every day and learn from it each day. Live the life of the people in your mind as you read the stories. It's magnificent!

If it is hard for you to read the Bible, then figure out a different mind set for when reading God's Word. Find some friends that would read it and have fun with it. Do something to make it more interesting for you because the Bible is far from boring.

God bless!!
