An important lesson in history.... What can we learn from Elias Boudinot?


This is Elias Boudinot...

He was President of Congress.

He signed the Peace Treaty to end the American Revolution.

He was the first attorney admitted to the U.S. Supreme Court.

He was one of the framers of the Bill of Rights.

He was the Director of the U.S. Mint. 

What were his thoughts and motivating factors in life?!?

What can we learn from him...? 

He said, “Let us enter on this important business under the idea that we are Christians on whom the eyes of the world are now turned. Let us earnestly call and beseech Him, for Christ’s sake, to preside in our councils. We can only depend on the all-powerful influence of the Spirit of God, Whose Divine aid and assistance becomes us as a Christian people most devoutly to implore. Therefore I move that some minister of the Gospel be requested to attend this Congress every morning . . . in order to open the meeting with prayer.”


Can you imagine someone standing in today's Congress and having the courage to pronounce this? 

How far have we come from this attitude? 

There are evil ungodly people who want to push the idea of Separation of Church and State and remove God from our government. 

Folks, I am telling you that is pure evil. Our nation was founded on and became the greatest nation in the history of the world because it was founded on God and His principles. 

Our only hope for becoming great again is to return to God.
