1619 or 1776 ??? - From thomasmore@thomasmore.org 7/3/2021

 

The 4th of July commemorates the day that our Founding Fathers threw off the yolk of tyranny to accept the burden of freedom, which requires bloodshed to keep, and a moral and religious people to maintain. 

 

However, there is concerted effort to erase the Fourth of July as the founding date of our country. 

Today, Patriotic Americans must contend with a new founding date for America - August 20, 1619, the day when the first slave ship arrived on American's shores.

That date is the brainchild of pseudo-history professor Nikole Hannah-Jones*. It's a component of the 1619 Project, which aims to reframe the country's history by placing the consequences of slavery at the very center of our national founding. The alternative 1619 national founding is the product of a radical ideology attempting to rewrite our country's history. So, which it be? 1619, or 1776....

 

Let us remember the truth of that glorious day - July 4th, 1776. For the first time in world history, a group of colonials - The progeny of the pilgrims, seeking a land in which they could freely exercise their faith without threat of imprisonment or execution.

The offspring of explorers, gutsy enough to voyage across the merciless ocean to traverse an uncharted, unpredictable continent... the posterity of entrepreneurs, oppressed by the King and the landed aristocracy of Great Britain which kept them subjugated... Were, with the simple signing of the Declaration, breaking with their mother country....

CELEBRATING JULY FOURTH 2021

(A reminder to honor our country's Christian roots.)

                      (Excerpts from A Model of Christian Charity by John Winthrop;                                                         A Puritan Quest for free and God-fearing Christian Nation) 

    John Winthrop, a Puritan lawyer and leader, wrote his famous sermon, "A Model of Christian Charity", while on board the Arbella en route to the Massachusetts Bay Colony, where he became their first governor. It is believed that he spoke this sermon to his fellow passengers on June 11, 1630. As a new country was forming. Winthrop strove to keep our Lord at the forefront & in the hearts of new citizens.

His sermon emphasized the importance of the overriding "law" of love for one another.

    "This love among Christians is a real thing, not imaginary ... as absolutely necessary to the [well] being of the Body of Christ, as the sinews and other ligaments of a natural body are to the [well] being of that body .. We are a company, professing ourselves fellow members of Christ [and thus] we ought to account ourselves knit together by this bond of love."

 

    Many people feel Winthrop's sermon was as an important document as the Pilgrim's Mayflower Compact. At the heart of Winthrop's sermon is this summation:

    "Thus stands the cause between God and us: we are entered into a covenant with Him for this work. We have taken out a Commission: the Lord has given us leave to draw our own articles ... Now the only way to avoid shipwreck and to to provide for our posterity, is to follow the counsel of Micah: to do justly to love mercy, to walk humbly with our God. For this end, we must knit together in this work as one man ... So shall we keep unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace."

 

Winthrop concluded his landmark sermon with this encouragement:

    "We shall find that the God of Israel is among us, when ten of us shall be able to resist a thousand of our enemies when He shall make us a praise and glory, the men of succeeding plantations shall say, 'The Lord make it like that of New England.'

 Happy Fourth of July Weekend!

P.P.S. *Nicole Hannah-Jones devotion to Communist tyrant Fidel Castro is a tragedy. In the Cuban-Missile Crisis, Fidel was prepared to sacrifice his life and nation for atomic destruction for the sake of communism. Her 1619 Project is subversion to our values and American principles.
