The Soon Coming Judgment Of God Upon America and How To Escape It 100
Bibles In School
Contrary to popular belief, our government printed Bibles for use in schools. In 1782, the
Continental Congress granted the approval to print 10 thousand copies of the Bible for use in
schools.

Even Thomas Jefferson supported the Bible being used in public schools. There is
strong evidence to support that Jefferson was not Christian. If not a Christian, this would provide
even stronger evidence that the U.S. was a Christian nation being that Jefferson would find the
need to say that he was a Christian and make decisions as a Christian in order to maintain power.
During his presidency, he was chairman of the school board of the District of Columbia.
Jefferson authored the first plan of education; the two principal textbooks were the Bible and
Watts Hymnal and he hired clergyman as teachers in Washington DC.

While evidence shows
that Jefferson was a member of the Illuminati, a Satanic group, he publicly claimed to be a
Christian; he stated: “I am a real Christian, that is to say, a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus.” He
also stated: “The Bible is the cornerstone of liberty, therefore students' perusal of the sacred
volume will make us better citizens, better fathers, and better husbands.” Specifically referring to
the teachings of Jesus Jefferson wrote:
His system (Jesus') of morality was the most benevolent and sublime
probably that has been ever taught, and consequently more perfect than those of
any of the ancient philosophers…(He was) the most innocent, the most
benevolent, the most eloquent and sublime character that ever has been exhibited
to man. (Letter from Jefferson to Dr. Joseph Priestley. 1803; quoted in Maxfield
et al. The Real Thomas Jefferson, p. 495.)

Although the National Education Association (NEA) is one of the most ungodly
organizations in the nation, the teachers unions of old were much different. In 1892 the Kansas
Teachers Union turned elementary education over to the state for the first time. For over 250
years the Kansas schools had been church based. The education system was being turned over to
the state only because of concerns over population growth. The teachers union made the
following explanation:
Whether this [decision] was wise or not is not [our] purpose to discuss
further than to remark, that if the study of the Bible is to be excluded from all
state schools, if the inculcation of the principles of Christianity is to have no place
in the daily program, if the worship of God is to form no part of the general
exercises of these public elementary schools, then the good of the state would be
better served by restoring all schools to church control.

The Control and Destruction of American Education
In 1948 Carl Marx and Fredrick Engels laid out their 10 communist planks or goals in
their Communist Manifesto. The tenth goal established by Marx and Engels was free education in
public schools. The purpose of free education was government control of what and how the
children learned.
