Ep. 4 | Ankerberg Classic: Was America Founded on Christian Principles?
July 14, 2021
Who coined the phrase “separation of church and state”? Why did the Supreme Court in 1962 reverse the meaning of the First Amendment which it had defended for almost 200 years? How can we maintain good government? Why is a public servant’s private life more important than his public life? What were the Founding Fathers’ intentions toward God, prayer, biblical principles in American schools, political life, and government? Excerpts are given from Christopher Columbus’ log, statements from early colonists, the Mayflower Compact, the first public school laws, and the original entrance requirements to Harvard, Princeton, and Yale. (Formerly known as The Founding Fathers: Did they intend for America to be founded as a Christian Nation?)

The Fight Within / The Fight Without
What can you do, Christian, when you give in to sinful desires? You are addicted to life-styles and substances that are destroying your body, your Christian testimony, and your fellowship with God. What has God provided to help you forsake your old ways? How much have others conditioned your thinking, even though you are a Christian? What has God provided to enable new Christians to overcome their cultural sinful patterns? What can you do when the Bible says one thing and you realize it is not true in your life? Repentance and Holiness: has God provided a way for Christians to become holy no matter what their background? True repentance: why is it important to a Christian life? How can you surrender yourself totally to God?
