Liberating the Nations
Biblical Principles of Government, Education, Economics, & Politics

role of the church, the family, the media, and civil government in a

The Ten Commandments & Modern Society
Stephen McDowell
Jesus reiterated what all the Bible teaches: that God's Law/Word, which is
summarized by the Ten Commandments, contains principles that, if obeyed,
produce life — life for men and nations — but if ignored, produce death. He
said: "Do this [keep the commandments] and you will live." America's laws
were based upon God's higher law. This higher law, as summarized in the Ten
Commandments, used to be taught to all Americans, was greatly revered, and
all looked to obey it. Today, few obey, revere, or even know His commands.
Many people are doing all they can to remove any vestige of His law from
our nation, claiming they are a great detriment to society. In 1980 the
Supreme Court ruled in Stone v. Graham that the public schools of Kentucky
could not display the Ten Commandments on the walls. The Court said: "If
the posted copies of the Ten Commandments are to have any effect at all, it
will be to induce the schoolchildren to read, meditate upon, perhaps to
venerate and obey, the Commandments." Just imagine if our children obeyed
the Ten Commandments. Some may consider this dangerous, but in reality this
would solve many of our problems. About 1.7 million Americans are behind
bars today — 1 in every 155. To learn to not steal or murder might not be
too bad an idea to help deal with this problem. This booklet shows the
importance of the commands for us today and gives an overview of the them,
highlighting the positive corollaries of the negative laws.

Restoring America’s Christian Education
Stephen McDowell
America is a nation at risk. One primary reason for this is the mediocre
educational performance that exists today, which is the fruit of a state
monopolized educational system where the antichristian, man-centered
religion of secular humanism is preached five days a week to 50 million of
our youth. This is leading them and our nation into bondage.
Lack of money is not the problem in our public schools. The problem is with
the philosophy that forms the foundation of education in America.
Colossians 2:8 reveals there are two basic philosophies — that which is
according to the world, and that which is according to Christ. A worldly or
humanistic (man-centered) philosophy always brings captivity or bondage,
while a Christian philosophy brings liberty.
Learn of the Christian foundations of education in America: Education was
centered in the home and was thoroughly Christian; the first schools were
started by the church; the first common schools were started to teach
children to be able to read and understand the Bible; 106 of the first 108
colleges were started by and for the Christian faith; the Bible was the
central textbook; the Christian education of America's Founders produced
men of great character and thought—men who gave the world the most free,
just, and prosperous nation of all time. Such education is needed to assure
that America will continue its legacy of liberty.

Religion and Political Culture in
Jefferson’s Virginia
Edited by Garrett Ward Sheldon and Daniel L. Dreisbach
In 1996 the Providence Foundation sponsored an academic symposium held at
the University of Virginia on "Religious Culture in Jefferson's Virginia,
1740-1830: the Influence of Christian Communities on Thomas Jefferson,
James Madison, and Church and State in America." Various Christian and
secular scholars from numerous organizations and universities (including
Harvard, Princeton, Georgetown, Virginia, Connecticut, Loyola Marymount,
Regent, Syracuse, William and Mary) presented papers and moderated
discussions.
A number of those papers were published in 2000 as a book by Rowman &
Littlefield. These include articles by Providence Foundation chairman Mark
Beliles – "The Christian Communities, Religious Revivals, and Political
Culture of the Central Virginia Piedmont, 1737-1813"; Daniel Dreisbach –
"Church-State Debate in the Virginia Legislature" and "Religion and Legal
Reforms in Revolutionary Virginia: A Reexamination of Jefferson's Views on
Religious Freedom and Church-State Separation"; and Mary-Elaine Swanson –
"James Madison and the Presbyterian Idea of Man and Government."This book
examines the influential statesmen and the political struggles in
revolutionary Virginia that played a decisive role in establishing a
distinctively American approach to religious liberty and church-state
relations. It presents a fresh perspective on religion's role in Virginian
and American political culture and provides a critical reassessment of the
existing scholarship in the field. While holding a different view than some
of the writers, we are nonetheless excited to see some ideas about
Jefferson and Madison from a Christian perspective become available to the
academic community.

Building Godly Nations
Lessons from the Bible and America's Christian Historyby Stephen K.
McDowell
Jesus commissioned believers to "make disciples of all nations,"
which,according to Bible Commentator Matthew Henry, means to "do your
utmost tomake the nations Christian nations." How do we make the nations
Christian?How do we build Godly nations?The Bible teaches that if a people
obey God's laws they will have liberty,peace, prosperity, and justice. But
we must obey all of God's laws toexperience the abundance of God's
blessing. To the extent we obey in allareas of life, is the extent we will
experience the Godly fruit of liberty.The Founders of America understood
this vital truth and attempted to buildthe nation upon the precepts of God,
and though not without fault, theirefforts produced the best example of a
Christian nation in history. Thusthere are many important lessons we can
learn from the American Founders aswe seek to build Godly nations
today.This book examines the mandate for building Godly nations, lessons
fromAmerica's Christian history, and how to apply Biblical principles
togoverning the nations. Chapters include:
* Fulfilling the Cultural Mandate: How Christians Have HelpedEstablish
God's Kingdom in the Nations

Defending the Declaration
How the Bible and Christianity Influenced the Writing of the Declaration of
Independence
Gary Amos
After ten years of research and four years of writing, Dr. Gary Amos
reveals that the evidence from primary sources is irrefutable: underlying
the Declaration of Independence is a foundation of Biblical principles and
Christian influence. The Bible and Christianity—not deism and
secularism—were the most important influences on the framers. Amos laments
that America's educational system denies or ignores almost all of this
evidence; evidence he believes to be undeniable.

America, a Christian Nation?
Examining the Evidence of the Christian Foundation of America
Stephen McDowell
Many people today claim that America is not now nor ever has been a
Christian nation. Yet, the Founders of America spoke of her as a Christian
nation many times. They recognized America, not as an ecclesiastical state
where the church ruled nor one without sin, but as a nation founded on
Biblical principles, where Biblical truth and law were the standard for
public life, law, and societal institutions. This book exams the broad
evidence of the Christian foundation of America; and also addresses the
claim that America is now pluralistic and thus Christianity must be treated
like all other beliefs, concluding, as did America's Founders, that
Christianity is the source of liberty, and if its principles are ignored,
no freedom and permanent happiness are possible.

Which bible? The Old "eye-for-an-eye" bible or "turn-the-other-cheek"
bible?
I believe the bible could not be written today, whatever the version.
The bible was written during a superstitious times, science a concept
not considered. Just think, 500 years ago (or 25 generations passed)
people thought the earth was flat and the sun revolved around the earth.
No computers, no ability to fly, no guns, no phones, no CNN. Just a
bunch of traveling nomads trading stories. Trying to make sense of
their lot.
