Today we as a nation are struggling with the concept and the spirit of the Constitution. Many times the courts including the Supreme Court does not take into consideration the importance of the Spirit of the Constitution.
The spirit of the Constitution is that we the people were not being treated fairly. The Bill of Rights clearly says that there are certain right everyone should have.
It is also clear also that the Colonies were created by Europe and many situations were hard for a few good men to address. All the economic challenges could not be satisfied in the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. The founders chose to put a spirit in Constitution that could be resolved later. Race was a factor discussed then as I am sure other specific items were debated.
Even at that time in history we agreed that some changes had to be made. They also agreed that it could not be just one way or the other. Even today begin the sessions of Congress with a prayer to our sovereign God that gave us this country.
Yes, God was definitely behind our victories. There is no way we should have won the Revolutionary War. The British had already had the country divided up even to the end of the war. In other words they knew they would win.
By the time the War of 1812 came along, the citizens had already tasted freedom, so loosing was not an option.
When the Civil War or War Between the States came along, depending on which side you were on, God seemed to support the Union I believe because it was His plan to have freedom in this nation.
When World War I came it became clear that we wanted freedom for all nations.
When World War II came we still wanted freedom for all nations. However, if Ramel and Yamamoto had not been taken out of those two wars early on, we could have lost both fronts.
The spirit of the Constitution has been preserved by believers over the last two plus centuries. The spirit of 1776 must win or we lose it all. Congress needs to understand.
Bless God and bless these United States.
