It is such an amazing story! Patrick, a young, former slave in Ireland, was called by God in the 400s to go share the Gospel of Christ with those same Irish people who had enslaved him just a few years before! Yet, without fear, he boldly entered again into that realm and became the agent of liberty to those who had once been his agents of slavery.

He developed this boldness because Christ had revealed Himself to him in such a living way. Patrick’s faith in Jesus was no cold orthodoxy; his was a living relationship with the living, resurrected Son of God! In Patrick’s life, Jesus was Lord! We get a glimpse of the intimacy between him and his Lord when he writes of hearing His voice. With great humility he simply states that God said to him:

“He who gave His life for you, He it is who speaks within you.”

(Great Christian Classics, Kevin Swanson ed. (Generations With Vision, 2010), p. 140)

In speaking to a 4th of July celebration in Newbury, Connecticut in 1837, John Quincy Adams revealed our Biblical foundations. Being one of our Founders and our sixth President, he was very familiar with the thinking of the Founders. He knew what Continue reading

It could be easy to look around us and be discouraged with the many bad things we see.  Recent gains by the homosexual agenda in Colorado, California, and New York; and also, in California a court ruled that homeschool parents would have to either be certified by the state or stop teaching their children at home.  Chaplains in our armed services have been told they will have to stop praying in Jesus’ Name.  And I could go on and on.  The day does indeed seem dark.

So what are we to do?  Should we accept this darkness as the fulfillment of prophecy that “in the last days perilous times shall come”, and interpret that to mean there’s nothing we can do to protect the liberty of our children to hear the Gospel of the Kingdom of Christ?

While the day is dark, let’s remember that Jesus first came to this earth when it was Continue reading
