Woodrow Wilson (1856-1924), was the 28th President of the United States, after having served as the Governor of New Jersey.  He was an educator and author, having been the president of Princeton University.  In his Inaugural Addresses, March 4, 1913, President Woodrow Wilson recognized God in such expressions as:

"God's own presence .... God helping me .... in God's Providence ...." ¹

Woodrow Wilson remarked:

"A man had deprived himself of the best there is in the world who has deprived himself of this, a knowledge of the Bible.  When you have read the Bible, you will know it is the Word of God, because you will have found it the key to your own heart, your own happiness and your own duty." ²

"I am sorry for the men who do not read the Bible every day.  I wonder why they deprive themselves of the strength and of the pleasure." ³

On July 4, 1913, President Woodrow Wilson declared:

"Here is the nation God has builded by our hands." 4

In 1913, President Woodrow Wilson said:

"A nation which does not remember what it was yesterday, does not know what it is today, nor what it is trying to do.  We are trying to do a futile thing if we do not know where we came from or what we have been about....

"The Bible ... is the one supreme source of revelation of the meaning of life, the nature of God and spiritual nature and needs of men.  It is the only guide of life which really leads the spirit in the way of peace and salvation.

"America was born a Christian nation.  America was born to exemplify that devotion to the elements of righteousness which are derived from the revelations of Holy Scripture." 5

President Woodrow Wilson stated:

"The history of Liberty is a history of limitations of governmental power, not the increase of it.  When we resist, therefore, the concentration of power, we are resisting the powers of death, because concentration of power is what always precedes the destruction of human liberties." 6

"There are a good many problems before the American people today, and before me as President, but I expect to find the solution to those problems just in the proportion that I am faithful in the study of the Word of God." 7

On March 5, 1917, President Woodrow Wilson said in his Second Inaugural Address:

"I pray God that I may be given the wisdom and prudence to do my duties in the true spirit of this great people." 8
