Title: The History of Bibles in the Military
Topic: Bibles in the Military

Discussed by Bill Federer
with American Minute (www.AmericanMinute.com)

The Bible has become a hated book in America, especially in the military. For decades, Presidents have relied upon the Bible and its message to help them and others through difficult times. President Wilson, in 1917, gave pocket Bibles to WWI soldiers as they were heading to war. Each Bible was inscribed with a message from Wilson which read, in part, “The Bible is the Word of Life. I beg that you will read it and find this out for yourselves, read, not little snatches here and there, but long passages that will really be the road to the heart of it…When you have read the Bible you will know it is the Word of God, because you will have found in it the key to your own heart, your own happiness, and your own duty.”

Bill Federer, with American Minute, discusses a General who wrote a note in the book of Psalms to service men, urging them to trust in the words found within. Even President Roosevelt wrote a forward in the New Testament for soldiers: “Walk humbly. You will do so if you study the life and teachings of the Savior.”

Bill reveals how an organization recently sent Bibles to American soldiers in the Middle East and OUR Government had the Bibles burned because they didn’t want to offend the Muslims!! This is completely outrageous. Bill explains that people which have been conquered by Islam are not allowed to offend them in any way. By burning the Bibles, we basically told the Muslims that we surrender to them. Shameful!

So what happened? Why is the Bible becoming a thing of the past? Why do so many men and women hate it? Why are the courts in America throwing it to the curb? We can’t bring the Bible into public view now without someone, somewhere, crying and whining "Separation of church and state! This hurts my feelings! I need my safe room where I can color and hold a stuffed animal!”
