The Reverend John Witherspoon, in a Fast Day Sermon called for by the Continental Congress, in 1776 stated:
"It is in the man of piety and inward principle that we may expect to find the uncorrupted patriot, the useful citizen, and the invincible soldier, - God grant that in America true religion and civil liberty may be inseparable, and the unjust attempts to destroy the one, may in the issue tend to the support and establishment of both."
