Finally - The Declaration of Independence's Stance Is Supported Many Ways
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
When the spiritual values are neglected, the visible church becomes one more human institution.
"This has been a fruitful subject. I have dwelt upon it at some length because I feel that the Church’s spiritual equipment is the cardinal and fundamental thing. It does not consist in trappings, or sensational programs, or discussions of civic and economic arrangements; it consists in spiritual efficiency through the Christ of the gospel. “Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.” Thus far we have considered the great impelling motives of the Church’s call. We must now speak briefly of the call itself."
