Confederation, and the U.S. Constitution isnt as much events that took
place, but plans for the government of the United States. To me, I feel
that understanding these documents allows us, citizens of the United
States, to understand issues that we are dealing with today.
Looking at the news, there is always an event that started from
what the Constitution either does or does not say, for example, the
Second Amendment is something that constantly is debated over and
over again today. The Bible calls Christians to be good citizens,
respecting the government, but ultimately giving full power to God. I
believe that the only way to be a good citizen is to be knowledgeable
about the government that we are under. Understanding what the
Constitution says, and the reasons behind why they say that are very
important in becoming a good citizen.
In my lesson, I covered both the Articles of Confederation, and
the Constitution extensively because I believe that knowing about our
government is important to be a good citizen. Knowing about these
documents, students can see, and understand some of the issues that
come up today, but all started back in 1787. Christians have important
role when it comes to governing a country. We need to pray for the
leaders of this country, now more than ever. But we also need to get
involved. As Christians I feel that we cant just sit by and let bad things
happen.
