376 years ago—
In 1647 the Massachusetts legislature passed “The Old Deluder Satan Act”, to educate children with the Bible to protect them from the devil.
“One chief project of that old deluder, Satan,” the law read, was to “keep men from the knowledge of the Scriptures.”
In the late 1600’s The New England Primer became the universal reading book in America for over a hundred years, with rhyming couplets for the alphabet, mostly from the Bible.
It is said that “Every town soon had a school, though few had prisons.”

TODAY—
In 1962 the United States Supreme Court effectively ruled out prayer in public schools.
In 1963 the United States Supreme Court effectively ruled out Bible reading in public schools.
In 1980 the United States Supreme Court ruled out the Ten Commandments in public schools.*
We now have sixty years observing and living with the teachings of the Bible not allowed in our schools, and so, completely missing in most children’s lives.
The old deluder, satan, has had his grandest field day transforming this most God-fearing and God-blessed country into hell.
Too strong words ? , because we still have lots of freedoms and lots of blessings ?
The Bible we abandoned says, “The wicked will be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.”

What if The Old Deluder Satan Act was revoked, along with the mindset that called for it’s passing back then ?
Well, that is exactly what we have today.
If satan can no longer be thwarted in our children’s lives by teaching them the Bible, then satan has free reign to completely control our children.
Could it be more obvious—that is exactly why two generations now believe in evolution as fact, acting like we came from animals, as taught.
So it is no wonder that they also vote for godless leaders, hell-bent on destroying America.

*”If the posted copies of the Ten Commandments are to have any effect at all, it will be to induce the schoolchildren to read, meditate upon, perhaps to venerate and obey, the Commandments. However desirable this might be as a matter of private devotion, it is not a permissible state objective under the Establishment Clause.”—–United States Supreme Court
