Do You Agree With America's Founding Fathers About Jesus Christ?
.
In this brief video teaching excerpt, Jerry Robinson probes the identity of "Nature's God" referred to by Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence and asks "who exactly is the "God" that the founders spoke of in their writings?
.
Was it the God-man Jesus Christ, as revealed in the New Testament?
.
As this brief clip reveals, several of America's founding fathers displayed a hostile and blasphemous attitude towards Jesus Christ, the apostle Paul, the New Testament in general, and much more!
.
Search long and hard, for example, into the published letters of America's first president, and national foundation stone, George Washington for any mention of Jesus Christ and you will find nothing.
.
While it is true that many of the founders often referred to Divine Providence, and even God, the identity of this supernatural power is rarely associated with Jesus Christ, who many of the founders viewed merely as a good man, likely a myth, but certainly not a god-man.
.
When the founders did write or speak about the man Jesus Christ, it is rarely flattering and often vile.
.
George Washington - The name of Jesus Christ is not mentioned even once in the vast collection of Washington's published letters.
.
John Adams - Adams denied both the doctrine of the Trinity and the divinity of Jesus and had a distinct disdain for the message of the Cross.
.
Writing to his once fellow patriot and later political adversary, Thomas Jefferson, Adams confides: “I almost shudder at the thought of alluding to the most fatal example of the abuses of grief which the history of mankind has preserved - the Cross. Consider what calamities that engine of grief has produced!”
.
In a letter penned two days after Christmas in 1816 to his life-long friend F.A. van der Kemp, Adams confesses: “As I understand the Christian religion, it was, and is, a revelation. But how has it happened that millions of fables, tales, legends, have been blended with both Jewish and Christian revelation that have made them the most bloody religion that ever existed?”
