The brilliance of the U.S. Constitution and the framework of our government lies in their foundation on strong biblical principles, emphasizing justice, equality, and the inherent dignity of every individual. Rooted in the belief that all people are created equal, these principles have fostered a culture of freedom and responsibility that has propelled the United States to become the greatest nation on earth. As we navigate the complexities of modern society, there is an undeniable correlation between our adherence to these foundational values and our national strength. However, as we increasingly stray from these principles, we witness a gradual weakening of our internal cohesion and our position on the global stage, reminding us that the very fabric of our democracy is interwoven with the moral tenets that originally shaped it.
