00:00:00.000 Was America founded on Judeo-Christian values? 1.00
00:00:03.200 No, and here's why. 0.99
00:00:04.800 There were 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence,
00:00:07.340 52 were Christians, 4 were agnostic.
00:00:09.800 Not one of these men were Jewish.
00:00:11.800 So no, America was not founded on Judeo-Christian values,
00:00:14.720 just Christian values.
00:00:16.240 Now you might be thinking, 0.58
00:00:17.140 isn't Christianity built on Judaism? 0.61
00:00:19.360 Again, no.
00:00:20.620 Let me explain.
00:00:21.540 God does not have two religions.
00:00:23.120 From Genesis to Revelation,
00:00:24.480 Scripture reveals one redemptive plan
00:00:26.740 on one person, Jesus Christ. 0.62
00:00:29.060 That is, the Old Testament was never about Judaism, but about Christianity.
00:00:33.880 In fact, when we understand that the Old Testament is Christianity concealed,
00:00:37.780 and the New Testament is Christianity revealed, the Bible begins to make sense. 0.80
00:00:42.860 Everything that began with the Jews was preparatory, designed to point them to Jesus Christ.

00:00:52.120 The Passover lamb pointed to Christ.
00:00:54.620 Circumcision pointed to Christ. 0.85
00:00:56.360 The sacrificial system pointed to Christ.
00:00:58.700 the priesthood pointed to Christ, the temple pointed to Christ, the law pointed to Christ,
00:01:04.280 the kingship of David pointed to Christ. Every shadow found its substance in Christ.
00:01:10.260 So what we call today Judaism is not the foundation of Christianity. It's the post-Christ 0.98
00:01:15.840 rejection of the Messiah. Christianity is the foundation of Christianity. Jesus himself said 0.89
00:01:21.500 that Moses and the prophets spoke of him. He said, if you believed Moses, you would believe me,
00:01:26.620 for he wrote of me. Yes, believing Jews were the first Christians, but Judaism was never God's will. 0.94
00:01:33.920 It was the religious detour of those who denied Christ. So there is no Judeo-Christian system. 0.68
00:01:41.300 One denies Jesus in the Old and New Testaments. The other sees Christ in both.
