VA ALLOWS BIBLES IN REMEMBRANCE DISPLAYS, BLADENSBURG CROSS CASE IS PRECEDENT
From Kelly Shackelford of First Liberty: As an avid supporter of our military cases, I know that you are passionate about protecting religious liberty for America’s service members; those who sacrifice their health and well-being for our constitutional rights, including our freedom to live out our faith.
So, I wanted to quickly share with you my insight on a policy change the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) recently put in place.
Many of you probably know by now that First Liberty played a critical role in the process of getting the VA to clarify its rules. Earlier this year, our legal team sent a letter to VA Secretary Robert Wilkie, urging him to issue a policy to allow all VA facilities to include a Bible in POW/MIA remembrance displays.
Thankfully, the VA granted our request and updated its policies to permit religious literature, symbols and displays across facilities nationwide.
But here’s something you may not realize.
In addition to our legal intervention, VA officials also relied on another important legal component when making their policy updates:
The landmark U.S. Supreme Court precedent set by the Bladensburg WWI Veterans Memorial case.

Sadly, the VA solved this problem by allowing religious materials, bibles, and pamphlets from “all” religions to be displayed…including lgbtq+. The Christian Bible is only one of many being displayed, and although it has a lot of competition from dead religions and reprobates, our God can bring the others to naught.
“Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD.”
“The wicked shall be turned into hell; and all nations that forget God.”
Heavenly Father, thank You for the return of Your Word to the VA remembrance displays. Your Word is what sustained many a military personal and family members through unspeakable and unimaginable times. Thank You for turning the hearts of policy makers. All the glory goes to Your Son, Jesus, Amen
