The Truth is that we have been and still are a Christian nation! Yes, I know we are headed in the wrong direction as numbers of Christians decrease nationwide and our morals and ethics in society continue a downward spiral. However, we STILL are a Christian nation. Why? Because 77% of the 300 million people in our nation are professing Christians! We are the overwhelming majority!

But we are being “taught” that not only are we not a Christian nation now, we never have been. Yet, if we look at the evidence from History, it is clear that we were founded by Christians who while advocating religious freedom for everyone, believed the majority would always be Christian.

Some examples from our past: 52 of the 55 signers of the Declaration of Independence were Christian, 99% of all of our 400+ Founding Fathers were Christian, every major monument in Washington DC has scripture on it, the Bible was the main text for every school in the country for the first 100 years, every President of the United States from George Washington to George W. Bush has been a professing Christian, attended a Christian church, and mentioned God in all of their Inaugural addresses.

Our national motto is “In God We Trust” still printed on all of our money. We still have a Chaplain in Congress and Chaplains in every branch of our military. We still have national Holidays for the Birth of Christ and His death and Resurrection, and a national day of prayer and Thanksgiving started by George Washington himself.

Our Heritage is under attack. We are always only one generation from losing a connection with our past and who we are. What makes the difference? Whether or not we pass it on.
