How Almighty God and the Bible Have Influenced our Founding Fathers, Supreme Court, Congress, Education System

Hobby Lobby’s 2018 Independence Day advertisement is a reminder to the citizens of the land of the free and the home of the brave: “Blessed in the nation whose God is the Lord.”

The national arts-and-crafts store is owned by the Green family—devout Christians.

“From the beginning, the company’s core values have formed a foundation to guide decision making, establish the corporate culture and determine how business is conducted,” the company’s website declares.

Topping their core values: “honoring the Lord in all we do by operating in a manner consistent with biblical principles.”

Hobby Lobby’s July Fourth advertising campaign includes a number of quotes and citations demonstrating how Almighty God and the Holy Bible have influenced our Founding Fathers, the Supreme Court, Congress and the education system.

• “IT IS THE DUTY OF ALL NATIONS TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROVIDENCE OF ALMIGHTY GOD, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor.” —George Washington
• “And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are of the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever.” —Thomas Jefferson
• “The Bible is the best of all books, for it is the word of God and teaches us the way to be happy in this world and in the next. Continue therefore to read it and to regulate your life by its precepts.” —John Jay: First Chief Justice

And check out the student guidelines at Harvard and Yale before the historic schools were overrun by perpetually offended snowflakes:

“Let every student be plainly instructed and earnestly pressed to consider well the main end of his life and studies is to know God and Jesus Christ which is eternal life (John 17:3) and therefore to lay Christ in the bottom as the only foundation of all sound knowledge and learning. And seeing the Lord only giveth wisdom, let every one seriously set himself by prayer in secret to seek it of Him (Proverbs 2, 3). Every one shall so exercise himself in reading the Scriptures twice a day that he shall be ready to give such an account of his proficiency therein.” —Harvard 1636 Student Guidelines

“All the scholars are required to live a religious and blameless life according to the rules of God’s Word, diligently reading the Holy Scriptures, that fountain of Divine light and truth, and constantly attending all the duties of religion.” —Yale 1787 Student Guidelines
