Eternal Wisdom And Principles In Government

"I, wisdom, dwell together with prudence;  I possess knowledge and discretion.  To fear the LORD is to hate evil;  I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech.  Counsel and sound judgment are mine; I have understanding and power.  By me kings reign and rulers make laws that are just; by me princes govern, and all nobles who rule on earth.1  I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me.  With me are riches and honor, enduring wealth and prosperity.  My fruit is better than fine gold; what I yield surpasses choice silver.  I walk in the way of righteousness, along the paths of justice, bestowing wealth on those who love me and making their treasuries full.  'The LORD brought me forth as the first of his works, before his deeds of old; I was appointed from eternity, from the beginning, before the world began....' "  

1 Many Hebrew manuscripts and Septuagint; most Hebrew manuscripts and nobles - all righteous rulers

James Madison

James Madison

"I entirely concur in the propriety of resorting to the sense in which the Constitution was accepted and ratified by the nation. In that sense alone it is the legitimate Constitution. And if that be not the guide in expounding it, there can be no security for a consistent and stable, more than for a faithful, exercise of its powers.... What a metamorphosis would be produced in the code of law if all its ancient phraseology were to be taken in its modern sense."

- James Madison: member of the Continental Congress; delegate to the Constitutional Convention where he signed the federal Constitution; along with Alexander Hamilton and John Jay, he co-authored the Federalist Papers which were instrumental in securing the ratification of the federal Constitution; member of the U.S. House of Representatives where he helped frame the Bill of Rights; Secretary of State under President Thomas Jefferson; elected as the fourth President of the United States. 

Quoted from: Barton, David, Original Intent: The Courts, the Constitution, and Religion (Aledo, TX: Wallbuilder Press, 2010), 28: originally quoted from Madison, James, The Writings of James Madison, edited by Hunt, Gillard (New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1910), Vol. IX, 191, to Henry Lee, June 25 1824.

Highlight

Have you ever read the Constitution and wondered “what were the Founders intentions behind this or that phrase?”  The US Constitution in the Resources section contains online references to the Federalist Papers – an early work by three founding fathers on the intention of each section of the US Constitution.  But, if you are looking for something more lively, you could turn to the records of the continental congress link in the Resources section, under Congressional Records, or Elliot's or Farrand's records of the debates, or read about the intentions in the more personalized correspondence, writings and letters of the founders.

About

Are you wondering “what is Biblical Christian Solutions in Government (BCSIG)”?

In short we are very similar to Founding Father Alexander Hamilton's Christian Constitutional Society.

Hamilton formed the society to elect people to office who would support the Christian religion, and the US Constitution.

In a similar way our ultimate vision is to advocate for, defend, and advance Biblical ideological values in law, public policy, and culture. We seek to do this through education, lobbying, and as a secondary purpose (and as a primary purpose of a future sponsored sister organization) through identifying candidates who:

follow Jesus and have a Biblical Christian worldview;

support, with integrity, the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution; and

understand, will apply, and support God's law, word, and purpose as the rightful foundation for the content of all law, government, justice, and liberty.
