Strangely enough, several people today say George Washington was not really a Christian. let's check the evidence and see why it matters so much?
In answer to the second question: To paraphrase Woodrow Wilson: "A nation that doesn't remember where it came from doesn't know where it is or where it is going." In that same speech, Woodrow Wilson stated that America was born as a Christian nation. Because of that undodgable, irrefutable fact, people of all faiths or no faith are welcome in the USA. Nevertheless, Americans should honor the Christian faith that helped shape the country to be all that it is, despite people trying very hard to RUIN IT.
A few years ago an author co-wrote a 1200 page tome or book with Dr. Peter Lillback on the faith of Washington. After carefully sifting through the evidence, the book demonstrated and documented that Washington was a devout 18th century Anglican and NOT a Deist, as some revisionists of ill repute and devious distinction - say.
At Mt. Vernon,
George and Martha Washington's red-roofed estate resides on a hill overlooking the Potomac River and is perhaps the most famous and visited home in America. If a person knows where to look and what to look for, there are many, many reminders of Washington's devout faith to be found there, and not just Bibles in the library.
At Mount Vernon, is a re-creation of George's pew from Pohick Church, located in Lorton, Virginia. This box-shaped, red brick Anglican church was not only where Washington attended weekly services earlier in his life, but he served there as a Vestryman—an Anglican version of an elder and a deacon rolled into one.
Other replicas from Pohick Church at Mount Vernon include miniatures of the cross and two sections of the “reredos.” The reredos are pronounced RARE-uh-doss and are a large plaque often placed behind the altar in colonial Anglican churches with the words of the Lord's Prayer, the Ten Commandments, and the Apostles’Creed, with its affirmation of the Trinity.
The congregation would arise and recite these things together. There were reredoses (RARE-uh-doss) in the churches regularly attended by not only Washington, but also Patrick Henry, James Madison and, even, Thomas Jefferson.
People regularly witness reredoses in churches in Williamsburg, Alexandria, Philadelphia, New York City located at St. Paul's Chapel, and Providence, Rhode Island. There are many churches in the East where it can be truly claimed, “George Washington worshiped here.”
At Mount Vernon, can be seen Washington's “chariot”— the red horse-drawn carriage, with which he would routinely travel several miles over in muddy roads to Christ Church in Alexandria in the last several years of his life, where his funeral was eventually held.
Washington is buried on the grounds of Mount Vernon. Behind the sarcophagi of Martha and George are the words of Jesus from John 11 written in stone.
The inscription says: “I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.”
As to his faith, Nellie, his granddaughter whom he and Martha reared, stated that to question his Christianity, you might as well question his patriotism.
Washington said that only by the hand of God was he able to accomplish what he did. He referred to God (as“God”) some 100 times in speeches and letters. In addition, he used many respectful terms for Him such as the great governor of the universe, the invisible hand, etc. in Baroque (i.e., decorated) custom, as did many other Christians of his day and time. Dr. Lillback notes that Washington also referred to Providence, a long,fancy name for God, at least 270 times.
After George Washington was sworn in 225 years ago in the then-capital, New York City, he led the onlookers to the nearby St. Paul's Chapel, where reredos regularly take place, for a two-hour worship service, including Holy Communion, to implore God's help. Witnesses say he himself participated in the Lord's Supper.
Athough April 30, 1789 is the beginning of These United States under the Constitution with Washington serving as the first president in that way, Americans actually had another first president, although not well known to the majority of us.
In 1781, the first president was sworn in under the Articles of Confederation, was John Hanson, and there is a memorial to him in a Lutheran church in Philadelphia which honors John Hanson (technically) as our first president. As was often done, there was “A Proclamation for a Day of Thanksgiving, issued by John Hanson, president of the Continental Congress, on October 11, 1782. Some would argue that as it was the presidency of the Continental Congress, he was not truly "the first".
The Articles of Confederation constituted America's first Constitution, but even though it was so unworkable the founders met in the summer of 1787 to amend them, they decided to throw it out and start all over again. Therefore, the Constitution was written anew, with SOME of the ideas of the Articles of the Confederation.
Ray Charles and many believe America has been blessed by God. But as Washington warned those present and the future generations in his First Inaugural Address - how can America expect His continued blessings if we disregard the rules of right and wrong that heaven itself has ordained? Some of these rules are the Ten Commandments and other scriptures of the reredoses.
Obama - That Blasphemed
Blasphemed President - is angry because time after time, the Congress has blasphemed President Obama by questioning his unerring and brilliant wisdom. Don't they realize that he has a personal pipeline to Mohammad and that His wisdom trumps the puny wisdom of economists, second-guessers and other Wiseguy Know-it-alls who think they can blaspheme Obama's Wonderous Decisions? No wonder he fumes and rants with fire in his eyes! How dare these lowly Senators and Representatives from which he was elected (for no apparent reason), oppose his All-Knowing-All-Caring decisions! The nerve of these cretins! A god-like figure stoops to be President and all he gets id blasphemed by second-guessing nabobs, nerds, and fellow-narcissists at every turn. If Mohammad and J.C.(Whichever J.C. you admire MOST) were at his side, they would cling to Obama's every word and back his flawless, impeccable judgement- every time. Background Smackdown Barack Obama is the re-elected president of the United States. Obama was formerly a U.S. senator from Illinois due to the threat of revelation of a messy divorce by his only main opponent. The guy dropped out for fear he was doomed by scandal. Everybody knows that EX-WIVES can and DO say just about anything to get what they want...so MAYBE the guy should have STAYED IN THE RACE. What we do know is that Obama was probably born in 1961 and definitely on the third planet from the sun. No hospital has claimed he was born there although his white grandmother posted his birth at TWO Honolulu hospitals. A brochure advertising Obama's book stated that he was Kenyan and Obama never disputed his writeup which may have been written by himself in a rare fit of truth. Most people place his birth in Mombasa, Kenya (1) (2)because his mother was too gravid i.e PREGNANT to be allowed to fly back to Hawaii. His mother, Stanley Dunham had met a Kenyan student at the University of Hawaii in 1961 and persuaded him that he was the father of her child by Frank Marshall Davis, an avowed card-carrying Communist and author of porn book, Sex Rebel - Black. A Muslim Republican neither confirmed nor denied this but did deny terrorist connections. Is he "living proof that "Republicans" are "insane" or drink a lot when selecting candidates? YOU BE THE JUDGE. Safe to say this "Republican" is not conservative. Obama's official father is from Kenya (3) and his mother is from Kansas. Obama is rumored to have graduated somehow from grade school, junior high, admitted drugging in high school, while at Occidental University and while at Columbia University and to have his law degree from Harvard Law School although all documents are sealed at great expense, time, and with tireless desperate effort costing tens of thousands of dollars. Obama previously served in the Illinois state Senate with no sordid details except for the Larry Sinclair affair (7) and was an instructor teaching that the U.S. Constitution is archaic, out-dated, and obsolete at the University of Chicago Law School. He and his wife, Michelle (Robinson), have two most likely adopted daughters, Malia and Sasha who influenced Obama's stance on same-sex marriage since he is a homosexual himself which caused them to be adopted like homosexual couples "having" to adopt. This casts awe and wonder and suspicion on Michelle who has over 26 taxpayer funded expensive attendants and assistants and etceteras. Cynical folks think cash kickbacks come with obtaining such a "featherbed" position. One is forced to work for a paltry $172,200 named Susan Sher. This money is the top out pay for White House staff. One or two holdovers MAY get that salary but MAY have worked for many, many years faithfully. Perhaps one of the newbies or newbys is more than just a friend? A couple of devious, dastardly rogue scoundrels used the word "adopted" when referring to a dog to foul up internet searches. Scum do things like that all the time. No one has ever seen Michael Obama "in a family way" and doubtless never will. Obama's bath house alias was Harrison J. Bounel and his Social Security number belonged to a dead centenarian from Connecticut. His draft registration is the only existing item with a two digit date in the entire world since all the others have a "19" or a "20" preceeding the year of registration which was when Obama was about 19 years of age in 1980. No one has ever questioned why he did not register in 1979 at age 18 like everyone else by law. Bogus copies of his birth certificate are online, each with amusingly bungled details and even humor, the most recent fooled Trump who was helping Obama run interference from the investigation of Sheriff Arpaio of Arizona. In the year 2009 Globe Magazine article revealed Obama’s top 25 enemies. The list includes: Glenn Beck, Larry Sinclair, Joe Wilson, Sarah Palin, Sean Hannity, Orly Taitz, Pat Boone, Jon Voight, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Rupert Murdoch, Jesse Jackson, Dick Cheney, Bill O’Reilly, Toby Keith, Rex Rammell, Hank Williams Jr., Steven Anderson, Saul Anuzis, Bill Cunningham, Paul Krugman, John Rich, Wiley Drake, Alex Jones and Michelle Malkin. In three years, the list has expanded to include: Humana (and other insurance companies), Chrysler Corporation, The First and Second Amendments, Christian religions, the coal industry, the Tea Party Movement, Fox News, the US Military, US House of Representatives, Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, Ron Paul, Clint Eastwood (who had a one-sided discussion with Obama as an "EMPTY CHAIR"), Jason Chavetz, Trey Gowdy, Allen West, John McCain, Mitt Romney donors, and anyone who opposes Obamacare. Do not show this list to Mitt Romney as he will cry his eyes out at being listed as an enemy when he has been so friendly, bending over backwards to not offend Obama but to gently show him the error of his ways. Romney would be absolutely crushed, wringing his hands and weeping uncontrollably for at least three days ceaselessly, maybe longer. Romney might try to drink away his troubles with chocolate milk or root beer, neither of which is good for his health. Knowledge that Obama is not his friend would break his mind and push him over the edge of reality. He thought they were "secret-hand-shake-friends-forever". He COULD decide to live at Disneyland forever to escape the cold-hard-facts-of-brutal-reality and gut-wretching, depressing heartbreak if he learned the stark, naked, painful truth. IF YOU READ THIS ROMNEY, rest assured that another 57,000,000 plus Americans (counting unborn millions especially) are also dispized by Obama who does not have the time from golfing and goofing off or inclination to scathingly list us all. We are direct objects of his ill will as regulation after regulation stifles job creation and commerce. Farmers were elated at a bumper crop of PEANUTS until some EPA O-bot shut down the peanut butter processing plant and all those "evil capitalist" jobs exploiting UN-unionized labor. (4)Aircraft giant Boeing was prevented from building a multimillion dollar aircraft manufacturing facility in South Carolina conDAMNed by Washington Post.(5) Just how does the Leftist Obama Democrat Socialist administration plan to "get even"? In myriads of ways and by all means available. Obama and Iranian-born Jarrett have hundreds of government agencies from the I.R.S.S. (audited by friends for over $930,000) to the E.P.A. to the F.B.I. at their beck and call to henchmanly do their bidding. Barack Obama’s Truth Team relentlessly and ruthlessly seeks out individuals and lists their names and their alleged infractions, short-comings, and lack of towing the line and unhomey-ness on the Obama/(Bite Me) Biden (tongue dipped in the unvarnished) Truth Team website. Based on this website, it is apparent that an enemies list does exist and the agencies that carry out their marching orders from Obama and Jarrett are reprehensible. Yet, Congress funds these agencies since they have the ultimate power of controlling country’s checkbook and will continue to be the 2%er "bike bum types" they have been all along. As for higher taxes on millionaires...even the New York Times knows rich people are not stupid people. Wealthy Britons have been becoming expatriots by the dozens for many years. Why suffer the tyranny of unfair HIGHER taxes when the top 2% of American earners ALREADY pay 80% of ALL the income tax? Some came back to America AFTER President John Fitsgerald Kennedy CUT taxes from a ridiculous 80-90%. JFK knew that wealthy people spending money in America, starting and buying out businesses, and CONSUMING like erstwhile Al Gore and his behemoth lake houseboat burning hundreds of gallons of fuel for a trip around the lake. Al Gore got much wealthier after selling mythical carbon credits he made out of thin air...for a huge profit. Even after Global Warming has been exposed as a huge expensive HOAX, people continue to believe with brains that cannot be "fixed". “After Americans win this election, it’s our turn. Payback time. Everyone not with us is against us and they better be ready because Americans don’t forget. The ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they deserve. There is going to be hell to pay. Congress won’t be a problem for us this time. No election to worry about after this is over and Americans have two judges ready to go,” reads the alleged statement of Iranian-born Valerie Jarrett, senior adviser to Barack Obama, and whose office in the West Wing is rumored to be the real Oval Office in the White House. Just exactly what does Jarrett mean? This statement, emphasized and underlined by Obama’s “vote for revenge” comment, definitely raises questions as to the possibility of a White House hit list to punish those who have shown adversity to Barack Obama, while rewarding those whom they considered to be loyal. This will extend Obama's titles from "Offender of the Faith" to "the Hate President". There is even a HIT SONG PARODY called "The man who disliked his country". Most Americans have nothing against him as a person, Americans would just rather he was not in a position to do grievous harm to the country Americans were born in and dearly love. Although most of us think little of the United nations as a group, Americans would not wish Obama on them either. Maybe a Rose Law firm partnership would suit him. Bill and Hillary leaving Rose must have left "a hole on their soul." Wonderboyless wayfaring warriors with words willing to win without wayward wanton wily ways. That being said, what are the implications of such a statement to Americans? History tells us (and a lot of us remember) Richard Nixon’s now infamous enemies list. Nixon’s list, however, was a lot shorter and he kept his list a secret. Obama makes no secret of the way he feels about anyone who opposes him. He and his “other brain” are quick to ridicule, chide, rebuke, and outright lie to mete out public humiliation to opponents of his administration.
