| JOHN JAY (1745-1829) Served as President of the Continental Congress, Authored some of the “Federalist Papers”, U.S. Minister to Spain, and First Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. “Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers, and it is the duty, as well as the privilege and interest of our Christian nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers.” "In proportion as the United States assume a national form and a national character, so will the good of the whole be more and more an object of attention, and the government must be a weak one indeed, if it should forget that the good of the whole can only be promoted by advancing the good of each of the parts members which compose the whole." "Unto Him who is the author and giver of all good, I render sincere and humble thanks for His manifold and unmerited blessings, and especially for our redemption and salvation by His beloved Son." |
