The Importance of a Moral Society
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
Daily Bites of our Christian Heritage
“Let us not forget the religious character of our fathers brought hither; their high veneration for the christian religion. They journeyed by its light and labored in its hope. They sought to incorporate and to diffuse its influence through all their institutions civil politic and literary. Webster’s Speech at Pilgrims Festival in New York 1850: “The Mayflower was a ship and a flower destined to be of perpetual bloom. Gentlemen, let me fancy that I see Elder William Brewster at the door this moment. Let me suppose his image stood before us: “Are ye, he would say, --- “Are ye our children? Does this scene of refinement, of elegance, of riches and luxury---Does all this come of our labors? Is this magnificent city but an offshoot from the Plymouth Rock? Is this one part of the great reward for which my brethren and myself endured? Our lives were filled with toil and hardship but we had faith and hope. God granted us the spirit to look forward. We tasted little of earthly gratifications for our hopes were on another life. let me say to you, if this be your earthly lot we envy you not. We reproach you not. Live always to God and to duty. Carry an undying love of religious liberty. Be willing to shed your heart’s Blood to transmit them to your posterity. Then will ye be worthy descendants of those who landed at Plymouth Rock.
