The Spirit and The Preaching Structure of our Country By David Barton and Rick Green
Share with us the spirit of the Boston tea party.
In the early 1600s, King James I had stridently withstood the Reformation ; so to combat the spreading Reformation teachings, he introduced 2 counter-Reformation'doctrines' : the Divine Right of Kings, and complete submission and non-resistance to authority, explaining that'it is seditious in subjects to dispute what a king may do' and that'I am the husband, the entire [British Isles] is my lawful other half : I'm the head and it is my body ; I am the shepherd and it is my flock.'
Those doctrines were embraced by British leaders for the subsequent century-and-a-half, but Yankee ministers like the Rev. Jonathan Mayhew disputed those claims. In Mayhew's famous and widely-distributed sermon using the Bible to disprove the king's errant doctrines, he pronounced that'rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God.' therefore , when King George III imposed the tax on tea, the colonists first protested it through traditional means, citing both Scriptures and English law supporting their positions. When the King attempted to coerce them into submission, the colonists resorted to civil disobedience.
( Hebrews 11 lists many heroes of our religion, including the Hebrew midwives, Daniel, Moses, etc, who were made known for their civil disobedience - for refusing to violate God-ordained principles ). Significantly, shortly after the Boston Tea Party, it was proposed in Congress that America's national motto should be'Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God
How has the teaching structure of our nation's's tutorial system changed?

IN 1789, CONGRESS PASSED the 1st Fed LAW ADDRESSING EDUCATION, REQUIRING THAT schools TEACH'RELIGION, propriety, AND KNOWLEDGE.' IN 1791, SIGNER OF THE announcement BENJAMIN RUSH ( TITLED'THE father OF PUBLIC schools UNDER THE CONSTITUTION' ) PENNED A POLICY PAPER SETTING FORTH 12 REASONS WHY THE BIBLE WOULD NEVER BE TAKEN OUT OF faculties.

About David Barton
David Barton wants to share soething with you. Judge David Hamilton has demonstrated himself to be an acute pro-abortion activist and a non temporal bigot, especially singling out Christianity for antagonistic treatment. Now, President Obama wants to reward him by raising him to the court that overruled his radical calls. USA citizens don't need legal activists on Fed. Courts who purposely weaken the constitutional protection of life and non mundane freedom.
