Section
1.
America’s constitutional history and historical experience is unique among
nations and revered by the American people. America’s early development and
establishment as an independent nation, confirms that her Christian Judeo
influences are profound. Worshiping and honoring Almighty God and recognition
of His plan of redemption for all mankind through His Son Jesus Christ was the
central motivation of Americans from the Mayflower Compact, to the new
Constitution, to this present day. America’s Declaration of Independence,
Constitution and the Constitutions in the States all recognize Almighty God as
creator, redeemer and protector of our nation and citizens. Growth of America’s
Christian Judeo heritage is confirmed in the fact that over 300,000 churches
have been established in the name of Jesus Christ. Thousands of Christian
missionaries have been sent to nations all over the world to spread the Gospel
of Jesus Christ. The Supreme Court in 1892 declared that America is a Christian
nation. All this and much more confirms that America has a rich history
centered in a Christian faith.
