We are a Chrisian Nation that needs Forgiveness

This is a response to an article by Jake Macauly Posted on Freedom Outpost Web Page April 12, 2019 titled.:
 IS CHRISTINITY THE RELIGION OF AMERICA

Yes since the 1600's and the Mayflower Compact [1620], Christianity was in the hearts and minds of all who came to America. The Mayflower document was a Covenant modeled after the Abrahamic Covenant God made with man in the Old Testament.  Madison and Jefferson were both Christians, as were a majority of the folks who signed the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.  The vary LAW of the US is based on the Bible and the 10 Commandments as laid out in Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 4. Chaplains were introduced into the Continental Army by then General George Washington.  The day Washington was inaugurated as the First President  in NYC he walked over to St Paul's Chapel one block away on Broadway. He knelt and prayed a blessing on the US confirming the Covenant our Nation had with Almighty God of our Christian Bible.  Over the years, just as it happened in ancient Israel,the people forgot their roots and turned from God. God's Covenant clearly says that He would not protect and help the nation prosper as he did for 200 years if we honored our promise to Him.  Over the past 100 years we have broken our promise to God. That is why we find ourselves asking stupid questions like "Are we a Christian Nation"?  Our God is a forgiving God , and he gave us a way back to Him in 2 Chronicles 7:14 "Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land." God also helps His people by giving them someone who can help bring about their restoration. For the Jews in 560 BC it was Cyrus, a Pagan leader of Assyria who freed them from the captivity under the Babylonians.  God often selects the least likely person for His work only because we cannot understand why or how He rules the Universe.  We were given another chance in 2016.  We are a Christian Nation, that is under attack by pagan and false teachings. We will overcome as long as we unite in our core values
