The Founders believed that the principles in these documents were not simply preferences for their own day, but were truths that the sovereign and moral people of America could always rely on as guides in their pursuit of happiness through ordered liberty. Theology 101: The Western Theological TraditionThe Western theological tradition stretches back thousands of years to the time of the ancient Hebrews.
