5.0 out of 5 stars The influence of Christianity in the early history of the US, July 6, 1999
This book is extremely valuable for information about the influence of Christianity on the founding of the USA. There are extensive quotations from Columbus, the Mayflower Compact, the founding fathers, and so on, showing that America was founded by Christians with the intent of spreading the Gospel of Christ, and building the Kingdom of God on earth.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must read for Christians looking to educate themselves, July 8, 2004
By Richard W. DeLorme (Rochester, New York United States) - See all my reviews
I was impressed with the volume of detail in this work. It was overwhelmingly specific in many areas and supported the Christian Heritage of our Nation. It accurately quoted scripture throughout and I many times was impressed with the common sense our historical figures had towards government. We were truly one nation under God and it is clear how far we have decayed as a nation from reading this work.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Valuable Home-School Resource, August 11, 2008
A bit difficult to read, since it is organized like a textbook, this book nonetheless presents a very compelling examination of the biblical view of government that should be a useful textbook in civics, especially for home-schooled and parochial school students. Someone reading and answering the questions in this book will be well on their way to understanding the proper role of religion in government and the reason for American constitutional government.
