The U.S. Constitution is based on The Bible.

The Bible is The Word of God.
The phrase "separation of church and state" does not appear in The U.S. Constitution.
The Church of the Bible (The Word of God) is the body of Christ.
Question: "How is the Church the Body of Christ?"
Answer: The phrase “the Body of Christ” is a common New Testament metaphor for the Church (all those who are truly saved). The Church is called “one body in Christ” in Romans 12:5, “one body” in 1 Corinthians 10:17, “the body of Christ” in 1 Corinthians 12:27 and Ephesians 4:12, and “the body” in Hebrews 13:3. The Church is clearly equated with “the body” of Christ in Ephesians 5:23 and Colossians 1:24.

Therefore, it is logically and lawfully impossible to separate the body of Christ (The Church) from the United States as long as the following conditions remain true:
1. The United States consists of "we the people".
2. "We the people" consist (even partially) of the body of Christ (people, believers, in Christ).
3. The U.S. Constitution (as written today) remains the law of the land.

"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
Blessings sometimes come through people. However, God is the origin (source) of all blessings.
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."Congress shall make no law... prohibiting the free exercise [of religion].
Religion: "the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods."
Congress shall make no law... abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.
In God alone are we to trust (Proverbs 3:5-8).
-Not the god of money.
-Not the god of man.
It is only through The One True Holy Living God of The Bible - Jesus Christ of Nazareth that we sinners are saved (Acts 4:12).
"if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land." (2 Chronicles 7:14)
