Outlawing the
Ten Commandments
The Ten Commandments of God are an historical fact. Whether the American
Civil Liberties Union likes it or not [see The ACLU's Blueprint for America], whether activist Judges like it or not, the Ten Commandments are a documented, historical fact. Two million Israelites were eyewitnesses to Almighty God giving Moses His laws for right living. This historical event occurred thirty five hundred years ago on the top of Mount Sinai, a mountain located in Egypt in the Sinai Peninsula, and was faithfully recorded for posterity by Moses in 1450 B.C. in the Book of Exodus, chapters nineteen and twenty.
Two million eyewitnesses are a lot of witnesses. Can you imagine each one testifying on behalf of God in Supreme Court of the United States? What would the news media report that evening on the TV channels? What would the headlines read in the New York Times and the Los Angeles Times?
Two million eyewitnesses, who had no political agenda to spin, testify that God Himself wrote the Ten Commandments on two stone tablets; He then presented these to Moses on top of Mount Sinai. These same Ten Commandments form the foundation for the laws of Western Civilization. This includes Great Britain and the United States.
Recently retired U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist said, The secular application of the Ten Commandments is clearly seen in its adoption as the fundamental legal code of Western Civilization and the Common Law of the United States.
This was true in America from 1607 until 1962. However, today, by court order
of the United States Supreme Court, it is illegal to display the Ten Commandments
in government buildings, or teach or display the Ten Commandments in the public schools, even as historical facts. This is called Sterilizing History, a propaganda technique once employed by Nazi Germany and the former Soviet Union.
The Supreme Court of the United States has decided to overrule God, two million eyewitnesses, America's Founding Fathers, and the collective will of the fifty state Congresses--the high court in Washington has ruled that it is unwise for your children to read or follow the Ten Commandments.
In 1980, in Stone v. Graham, the high court ruled: If the posted copies of the Ten Commandments are to have any affect at all, it will be to induce the school children to read, meditate upon, perhaps to venerate and obey the commandments; this is not a permissible objective.
George Washington, in his First Inaugural Address to our nation on April 30, 1789, said, The propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right, which Heaven itself has ordained.
The Father of Our Country also said, It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.
In all recorded history, there has never been a nation that has embraced sin and survived. Not Egypt, not Greece, not Rome—none of them. History says that our nation will not survive it, either.
Here are the Ten Commandments, written by God, and given to Moses by God Himself on top of Mount Sinai, with two million Israelites as eyewitnesses:
1. I am the LORD your God…you shall have no other gods before Me.
2. You shall not make for yourself a carved image (an Idol)…you shall not bow down
to them nor serve them.
3. You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.
4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all
your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God.
5. Honor your father and your mother.
6. You shall not murder.
7. You shall not commit adultery.
8. You shall not steal.
9. You shall nor bear false witness against your neighbor.
10. You shall not covet your neighbor’s house…nor anything that is your
neighbor’s.
Having read these Ten Commandments, ask yourself this question:
If America were to once again follow the Ten Commandments, as it did from 1620
until 1962 [until the U.S. Supreme Court's unprecedented, radical decision in 1962 with Engle v. Vitale, the lawsuit that banned God from the public classroom] do
you think our nation would be better off or worse off than it is today?
