The Eve of July 4th
Having grown up in New England, I am thankful for sites like the Plymouth Plantation, Old Sturbridge Village, the Boston Trail, and the First Baptist Church in Providence which were part of my childhood and now of my children’s. They serve as reminders to the liberty that was once so greatly treasured among Americans.
Alas, I fear our countrymen no longer possess the salt to maintain that liberty and it is eroding quickly.
But I am most grateful for the liberty of Christ that makes a man free no matter what his outward condition. A liberty that allows a man to be the prisoner of the Lord Jesus Christ. I would that many of our brothers and sisters in Christ would be captivated by Him.
