America’s Primal Prayer will be controversial in the political and culture wars if the 36% of Christians who currently don’t vote (a huge number) learn that:
(1) the Founders dedicated the nation to Jesus Christ by “confessing [him] before men” (Matthew 10:32-33 quoted below) when they referenced him four times in the Declaration of Independence (one is literally a prayer), thus, obligating Jesus to confess our nation “before [his] Father”--which explains the reason WHY America has been so blessed; therefore
(2) this is truly “one nation under [and dedicated to that] God,” and that
(3) such an understanding desperately needs the political support of those non-voting Christians which would be an important way for them (and you?) to “confess [Jesus] before men,” claiming Jesus’ promise for themselves, and revitalize the Founders’ official and perpetual confession of Jesus “before a candid world” (Declaration).
“…everyone who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father... But whoever denies me before men, I will also deny him before my Father...” Matthew 10:32-33.
Without the support of those non-voting Christians, secular (godless) extremists will succeed in their unrelenting attack on the American Theory of Government and its Christ-based “Chain of delegated Authority” (God > man > government servants) and Liberty Equation (our rights are God’s gift). Such a success would repudiate the Founders’ confession of Jesus and, in essence, “deny [Jesus] before men,” causing him to withdraw his blessings because he will be obligated to “deny [America] before [his] Father.”
The reference to the “Supreme Judge” in the concluding paragraph of the Declaration is a clear reference to Jesus inserted into Jefferson’s draft AS A PRAYER by the Christians in the Congress, the Declaration’s actual author. That reference clarifies Jefferson’s less specific “Nature’s God” and “Creator,” and Congress’ “divine Providence” reference, with an explicit identification that Jesus Christ is the God to whom the nation perpetually prays for righteousness using his well-known biblical title: “appealing [praying] to the Supreme Judge of the world…”
America’s Primal Prayer demonstrates that the Founders dedicated the nation to Jesus Christ when they officially, perpetually, and gratefully “confess[ed] [him] before men” on behalf of the entire nation when citing him as:
(1) the moral authority for independence (first sentence);
(2) the beneficent source of our unalienable rights and individual political sovereignty (second sentence); and
(3) by humbly offering prayer to Jesus for protection and guidance (concluding paragraph)--yes, the Constitution is one answer to those prayers.
While the phrase, “one nation under God,” wasn’t added to the Pledge of Allegiance until 1954, it’s an explicit reference to the historical fact of the Declaration’s Christ-based Chain of Delegated Authority (God > man > government), and of that Chain’s manifestation in the Constitution as the immutable Liberty Equation inherent in the American form of government (our rights God’s gift) which has a 240 year history of NOT being the theocracy the secular (godless) Left falsely alleges.
That self-evident political Theory, including its Christ-based Chain of Delegated Authority and Liberty Equation, is woven into the unamendable fabric of the Constitution because its “we the people” are the very same people “created equal” and providentially endowed by Jesus (the Creator in the Declaration), the very same “we the People” who “consent to be governed” by the terms of the Constitution which intrinsically expresses the Founders’ Fear of sinful people with power (see Part 2). To argue otherwise requires making the absurd assertion that the Constitution’s “we the People of the United States” was intended to be outside of the all-encompassing set of people defined by the Declaration’s “all men.” Clearly, “we the People” is a sub-set of “all men.”
