Your Most Humble & Obedient Servant

Gentle-hearted, not easily provoked, slow to anger, ready to forgive. Being meek, as defined in Judeo-Christian scripture, differs from its common understanding outside of its biblical interpretation. Its understanding in scripture is connected with one of the qualities of being the sons and daughters of God. Its scriptural application from the LORD describes the word as being gentle of heart unto others, submissive unto God, and humble in all of ones ways; an intelligently, aware understanding that is outwardly good and inwardly producing continued peace in the heart and mind. Moses was well-known for being meek. George Washington, though he was a soldier all his life, was meek, as can be directly understood from his writings. Abigail Adams was meek. Frederick Douglass was meek. Abraham Lincoln was meek. George Washington Carver was exceedingly meek. Ronald Reagan was meek. What is written is said as a placement of a landmark; a position to proclaim within our schools, family homes, a...

Walking In the Spirit of The Harmless Champions of Our Liberty

ā€œbecause it assumes that there CAN be MORAL RIGHT in the enslaving of one man by another.ā€ Abraham Lincoln,  1854 In his October 16th, 1854 debate with Stephen Douglas, Abraham Lincoln objected to the institution of slavery, and he objected to any assumption that the delegates in the Continental Congress; those signers of the Declaration of Independence, wanted to expand slavery, seeing that in principle, it was an affront to the central idea of liberty and justice for all meant to bind the national community together as one people. Instead, he effectually demonstrated the uneasiness of the Revolutionary era Federal government, and immediate post-Revolutionary government with being comfortable in dismissing any attempt to allow slavery to grow as an institution. They wanted to constrain it and let it die, that their sacrifices, and the sacrifices of all those individuals made should not be in vain. ā€œThe plain unmistakable spirit of that age, towards slavery, was hostility to ...

The First Precept Of Our Ancient Faith

                                                                                                           October 16, 1854 Speech on Kansas-Nebraska Act, Abraham Lincoln ā€œI particularly object to the NEW position which the avowed principle of this Nebraska law gives to slavery in the body politic. I object to it because it assumes that there CAN be MORAL RIGHT in the enslaving of one man by another.  I object to it as a dangerous dalliance for a free peopleā€”a sad evidence that, feeling prosperity we forget rightā€”that liberty, as a principle we have ceased to revere. I object to it because the fathers of the republic eschewed, and rejected it. The argument of ā€œNecessi...

The Passionate Strength/ Having Understanding & Determination

  The American women suffragists of black skin color were segregated by the white-skinned women suffragists. In the entirety of his 120   years of earthly life, Moses was physically and mentally resilient, and yet he was so meek and humble that the Supreme Being of heaven and Earth commented on it. According to the Most Intelligent, no man that has walked the Earth, except Jesus & Elijah, had such a close relationship with the Creator, as did Moses.   God called him the Man of God; the Friend of God.  The work of Moses included being the only judge for about 1.5 million people over the course of 40 years. Seeing how the people wearied him, his father-in-law, Jethro, a priest & leader of his own tribe, advised him to have magistrates or judges of and for each of the 12 Jewish tribes to help ease the daily work of justice. Moses's adherence to a pure, unalloyed source of truth, justice, and liberty was unlike any other experience or story, because it is writt...
