For You They Signed Character Studies from the Lives of the Signers of the Declaration of Independence Our founders were not atheists. Nor did they believe in some deistic God who was disconnected from the affairs of men.

Our Founders invoked the name of Jesus Christ in their public prayers, and appealed to the God of the Trinity in formal acts of Congress. They affirmed that Christian laws and Christian morals were the only safeguard for freedom. It was this foundation of Christianity that was used of the Lord to lay the foundations for liberty in America |
