The American Patriot's Bible

This NKJV Bible is wonderful addition to my collection. I enjoyed the fact that this Bible showed how Christianity is weaved throughout the history of the United States. It prefaces with a family records section, a map of the United States with the date of each state’s induction. It includes an area to fill in names of Military and Public Service as well as deaths. It goes on to add the seven principles of the Judeo-Christian ethic. The preface ends with a Call to Action section, which I found deeply inspiring. It then goes into the Bible, which is nicely printed with larger text. Within the text there are sub-notes and excerpts that highlight American history. It also shows how Christianity moved men of this nation to believe that this country is truly founded “Under God”.

While I wouldn’t call this a “Study” Bible, in the sense of life application, I would say that it is an awesome reflection of how the foundation of the country was created. It also reveals that in order to maintain our forefathers visions of this country, we must not trust in the things of man, but the slogan that can be found on any form of US currency “IN GOD WE TRUST”.
