The Christian Foundation of United States

America's Christian Beginnings

Here, in light of recent developments and yet another Jewish assault on Christian America, we are going to revisit a sermon preserved in the collection by Bertrand Comparet, but which is actually credited to his wife, Inez Comparet. We have no audio recording of this sermon, and have not been able to locate one. So while I have already discussed the problems with women preaching in churches, and while I have already criticized him for that in the past, I will only make this precursory mention of my disagreement here. Otherwise, the sermon does indeed reflect the fact that Identity Christians have always understood that America, meaning the so-called United States of America, had Christian beginnings and was indeed founded upon Christian principles.

Unfortunately, there are no direct references to Yahshua, or Jesus Christ, in the federal constitution. But there was no necessity for that. Before the so-called Civil War, the United States were always referred to as “these United States”, which is much more appropriate English for describing the collection of individual sovereign States of which the union was originally comprised. But today, the enemies of liberty doubt even this description. So for that, we have often referred to a speech given by John Quincy Adams for the Jubilee of the Constitution, who, when it was given, was a former United States president, and a devoted federalist. If anyone knew the intent of the authors of the U.S. Constitution, it should have been John Quincy Adams, who was kept close to his father throughout his young life, even accompanying him on diplomatic missions to Europe at the young age of ten years (in 1777). His father, John Adams, is of course credited with having been one of the principle authors of the Constitution.

A quote from Thomas Paine, cited in the program:

"But where says some is the King of America? I'll tell you Friend, he reigns above, and doth not make havoc of mankind like the Royal Brute of Britain. Yet that we may not appear to be defective even in earthly honors, let a day be solemnly set apart for proclaiming the charter; let it be brought forth placed on the divine law, the word of God; let a crown be placed thereon, by which the world may know, that so far as we approve as monarchy, that in America THE LAW IS KING. For as in absolute governments the King is law, so in free countries the law ought to be King; and there ought to be no other. But lest any ill use should afterwards arise, let the crown at the conclusion of the ceremony be demolished, and scattered among the people whose right it is."

The Christian Institution of These United States of America, Part 1

William Finck in a discussion of John Hancock, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, George Mason, et al. and some of their documents proving that the American Constitution and other founding documents were Christian documents founded upon Christian principles and ideals. 

Hello, this is William Finck and this is the second segment of our 10-10-10 day of prayer, and part one of my presentation on the Christian Institution of these United States of America. Today, over this two-part series, we will examine some of the professions and writings of the men who were chosen by our ancestors to lead and to found this nation. We will examine a representative collection of their documents, the early and official documents of this nation, and we will end with a discussion of our Constitution and its principal writers and inspiration. We will see beyond doubt that this is a Christian nation. You cannot see how far you have fallen, until you can see where you have been. All scoffers of history are haters of their own forebears, their own ancestors, and therefore hate their own selves.

The Christian Institution of These United States of America, Part 2

William Finck in a discussion of Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, et al. and some of their documents proving that the American Constitution and other founding documents were Christian documents founded upon Christian principles and ideals.

We have spoken at length about a few men from the Revolutionary era, and we will continue this second part of this presentation with that same theme. I have not avoided the earlier colonial period, however it was simply not my intent to cover it at length, but we will do that a bit later today. Yet here before we commence with a discussion of Thomas Jefferson, I would like to back up a bit. We all know about the founding of the New England colonies for religious reasons. I would like to go back to 1682, and the founding of Pennsylvania. Here I will quote from pages 82 through 84 of the “Christian Life and Character of the Civil Institutions of the United States”, written by 1863 by B. F. Morris:

William Penn was singularly qualified to be the founder of a Christian commonwealth. He had been educated under the influence of the gospel. He had studied the origin of government, the nature of civil liberty, and the rights of man, in the light of the pure word of God, and formed the purpose of founding a Christian empire on the free and peaceful precepts of Christianity. He had a firm faith in the great American idea that man, educated by Christianity, was capable of self-government. Finding no place in Europe to try the experiment of a Christian government, he resolved to seek it in America.

This program is from The Voice of Christian Israel, October 24th, 2010, where William Finck filled in for Eli James.
