Emphatic In His Determination/ A Champion Of Liberty / He Reaches The King

  To the heart of John Adams goes grace for his selfless sacrifice of a personal life,  that he may readily apply his intellect and passion in good service for the American people his time,  and the practical, useful legacy of his work forward unto all generations.  Unto him who was the lion for liberty and justice in the Continental Congress, who held steadfast to being and doing good for his country, goes the gift of a peaceful mind.  John Adams; emphatic in his determination to establish a government that would withstand the test of time, political change, and worldly pressures; with understanding of the foundational epocha, of the ā€˜gravitasā€™ he was a player in, goes peace of mind. ā€œI made the three Reverences, one at the Door, another about half Way and the third before the Presence, according to the Usage established at this and all the northern Courts of Europe, and then addressā€™d myself to his Majesty..ā€ ā€œI must avow to your Majesty, I h...

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 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...

'Called:ā€™ The Ancient Christianity of Frederick / #theFreedomPapers #criticalthinkers

ā€œWhat I have said respecting and against religion, I mean strictly to apply to the slaveholding religion of this land, and with no possible reference to Christianity proper; for, between the Christianity of this land, and the Christianity of Christ, I recognize the widest possible differenceā€” so wide, that to receive the one as good, pure, and holy, is of necessity to reject the other as bad, corrupt, and wicked. To be the friend of the one, is of necessity to be the enemy of the other. I love the pure, peaceable, and impartial Christianity of Christ.ā€ Frederick Douglass ā€˜A Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave,ā€™ 1845 I find it not robbery to call this man of black skin color, a great-grandfather of the American spirit, as it is one nation under God. I find it not robbery to call him a spiritual brother. Having passed away in 1895, Frederick Douglassā€™s legacy is only now beginning to surface from beneath the historical record piling; surfacing unscathe...
