     In 1947, the U.S. Supreme Court decided to pervert the original intent of Jefferson's declaration and seduce the American people into believing that the legitimate laws of the land called for a separation of church and state. 
"[t]he wall must be kept high and impregnable"
             1947 U.S. Supreme Court Decision
      Although unable to find any evidence to support this concept in any of the organic documents of the united States, the Constitution, the Articles of Confederation, or the Declaration of Independence, the Supreme Court perverted judgment and ruled in favor of a humanistic, and secularized system of life, which neither God or the framers never intended.
 
Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand.                (Micah 2:1 AV)

     
Another Historical proof of the assault upon Truth, and the willful ignorance of the original intention of Jefferson's statement by the Court, is that while President of the united States, in 1803, 1806 and 1807, Jefferson  sent paid missionaries to evangelize the Indians, out of the Federal treasury. Also, in an act of Congress, under the influence of Thomas Jefferson, federal land was designated for the Christian Indians to civilize other Indians and to promote Christianity. Does this sound like "separation of church and State"?  The Supreme Court obviously thinks so.

         BEARING FALSE WITNESS
 
These six [things] doth the LORD hate: yea, seven [are] an abomination unto him:
   A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
   An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
   A false witness [that] speaketh lies,
and he that soweth discord among brethren.
      (Proverbs 6:16-19 AV)

     
Since all History is ordained and orchestrated by the direct intervention of God, any false testimony of that historical record is an offense to both God and His Truth. When the events, purposes and effects of History are twisted to infer something that is untrue, that is the bearing of a false witness.

  Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.                          (Exodus 20:16 AV)

      By removing all reference to God, by the humanist state, from the public education system, specifically History, the state has in effect broken the precept of the Ninth Commandment.
This is especially destructive when this secularization of our Nation's History is proclaimed as truth to the generations of America.
I must reflect on the example again of Thomas Jefferson's comment to the Danbury Baptist Assembly, "separation of church and state."
Every organization that has come against the Christian faith, with any influence in society, has used this phrase. Some even erroneously think it is contained in the Constitution under Article I.
"Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."
      
All this declares, is that Congress shall not establish a State- run church, or favor one denomination over another. There is nothing here that separates church and state, or removes the Christina religion from the affairs of education, society or government. Yet, thousands of students, teachers, administrators, doctors, lawyers, Congressmen, Senators, Executive officers and Judges have been led to believe that there is some law which prohibits the Christian religion from the social realm of American life.

    THE WITNESS OF 
GEORGE WASHINGTON


      If we are to honestly, and accurately understand the meaning of the intentions of the Founding Fathers and Framers of American Law, we must understand them from the vantage-point of those that spoke them and acted upon them.
In George Washington's first official action as the first President of the Nation, during his inaugural address, he publicly admonished the people in a prayer of Thanksgiving, and council, to God.

"fervent supplications to that Almighty Being Who rules over the Universe, Who presides in the councils of nations, and Whose Providential aids can supply every human defect., that His benediction may consecrate to his liberties and happiness of the people of the united States a Government instituted by themselves for these essential purposes...      No people can be bound to acknowledge and adore The Invisible Hand  which conducts the affairs of men more than the people of the united States. Every step by which they have advanced to the character of an independent nation seems to have been distinguished by some token of Providential agency... 

       We ought to be no less persuaded that 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."
