George Washington's Sacred Fire by Peter A. Lillback is a national best-seller but is there hard evidence to prove that George Washington had repented of his sins and placed his faith and trust in the atonement provided through the shed blood Jesus Christ and His death, burial, and resurrection? There is no such evidence. Washingtons own pastor of many years was uncertain of Washingtons religious convictions. The Bible verse on Washingtons tomb was not requested by him and was placed there some thirty years after his death. Thomas Jefferson wrote that Washington was not a Christian. At a presentation at Mount Vernon, it was disclosed that the famous Washington Prayer book was discovered nearly a century after Washingtons death and that it was not in his handwriting. Many Masons, and those who believe that the Founders version of Freemasonry was a Christian form of Freemasonry, have worked overtime to portray Washington, who was a Mason, as a Christian. Masons desire to define a Christian not as one that believes in the exclusivity of Jesus Christ but promotes universalism. Revisionist history on the right and on the left is not acceptable. Thus, Christians should work double-hard to make sure that we are not guilty of slanting history to support a political agenda, universalism or dominion theology. For this reason and purpose, Brannons guest is Chris Pinto of adullamfilms.com who has produced a DVD entitled, The Hidden Faith of the Founding Fathers.
