“We hold these truths to be
self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable rights…Declaration of Independence
On July
3rd, 1776 in Philadelphia, John Adams wrote a letter to his wife predicting
that one day this newly formed nation would look back on the momentous events
of that week and celebrate.
“I am apt to believe that it
will be celebrated, by succeeding generations, as the great anniversary festival.
It ought to be commemorated, as the Day
of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be
solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells,
bonfires and illuminations from one end of this continent to the other from
this time forward forever more.”
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand
firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. Galatians
5:1
May God
bless you and your family on this day that we celebrate the freedom God gave us
and the nation He birthed to proclaim it.
Celebrating
life, liberty and the pursuit of God from whom all blessings flow!
Your
pastor and partner in ministry,
