Wealthy supporter of the American Rev War, but died a poor man, knew Christ though.

Gouverneur Morris was an American statesman, a Founding Father of the United States, and a signatory to the Articles of Confederation and the United States Constitution. He wrote the Preamble to the United States Constitution and has been called the "Penman of the Constitution". A godly Christian man who was the single biggest financier of the American Revolution, he was opposed to slavery from the time he was a teenager and did much to protect and aid Black Slaves, he risked both his life and fortunes to protect Black slaves. This is the kind of many Black Americans need to talk about when they desire to pull out the "Race Card" in trashing our Founding Fathers. Governor Morris is credited with the idea of "We the People" Even though Morris was the biggest financier of the American Revolutionary War, he later in his life went into debt through speculating on land, leading into the Panic of 1796–1797. Unable to pay his creditors, he was confined to Walnut Street Prison from 1798 to 1801. After being released from prison, he lived a quiet, private life in a modest home in Philadelphia until his death in 1806. He never lost his love for God and country and lives now with God in heaven where all of us go who love and serve the Lord Jesus Christ. 1/26/24 Naples, Fl www.mefoundation.world
