![]() A Project to develop a Christian Political Philosophy of Justice, Brotherly Love and Stewardship for the Reformation of American Politics and Public Policy The basic tenet of this project is that American society is, as Abraham Lincoln said, "the last best hope for mankind." And it is that society, grounded in Christian principles and with a Christian worldview, that has provided hope to the world through this "The American Century." Yet as we stand at the gateway to the 21st Century many events caution concern for the continuance of that hope. Our current political climate, our immersion and reliance on the "global" economy, and continuing foreign threats (even absent the old Soviet Union), challenge us. To meet the challenges of the next century will require a rebirth of the principles that made America the hope of the world. That rebirth is accomplished through the Reformation of America with a strong Christian Worldview. Mission of The American Reformation Project We believe, as with the Founding Fathers, that there are self-evident truths that man should live by, and that these truths should govern the private and public life of man. These truths derive from a higher and absolute authority, and have found their most complete public expression in the constitutional republic of the United States of America. We believe that this higher and absolute authority is the God of the Christian faith. Alas, man is fallen from grace and is unable to see with great clarity these absolute and self-evident truths. In his fallen nature man creates fallen institutions. God, Himself, having ordained that man should be governed by a civil government, recognizes man's complete inability to govern with justice and equity from his own fallen nature. It is our belief that God has raised up this nation and this government to be the best model of civil government that man can accomplish. Nevertheless, it is founded on a fallen nature and will need a vigilance and diligence to God's established truths in order to persevere. It is the mission of the American Reformation Project to help "reform" these fallen institutions by recovering these self-evident truths into the public arena. To reveal the essential nature of those truths as deriving from the basic Christian message. And to provide a needed balance to the forces of man's fallen nature that have been resurgent during the last half of the 20th Century.
