RESOURCES, RECOMMENDATIONS AND MEDITATIONS

Nothing
in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is
more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded
genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of
educated derelicts. Persistence and
determination alone are omnipotent. The
slogan, ‘Press On’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human
race. --

You have enemies? Good. That means you have stood up for something, sometime in your life. -- Winston Churchill

Devotional Thought: "If the world hates you, remember that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember the words I spoke to you ... If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. ... They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the One who sent me." -- John 15: 18-21

We didn’t pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. It must be

children's children what it was once like in the United States where
men were free.

Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally. -- Abraham Lincoln, speech to the 140th Indiana Regiment, March 17th, 1865

vice. And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of
justice is no virtue.
cans believe every day is the 4th of July; Democrats believe every day is April 15th. --
The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: it connected in one indissoluble bond the
principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity ... Is it not that, in the chain of human events, the birthday of the
nation is indissolubly linked with the birthday of the Savior?
That it forms a leading event in the progress of the Gospel
dispensation? Is it not that the Declaration of Independence
first organized the social compact on the foundation of the
Redeemer's mission upon earth? That it laid the cornerstone of
human government upon the first precepts of Christianity?
The aim and final end of all music should be none other
than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul. If
heed is not paid to this, it is not true music but a
diabolical bawling and twanging. -- Johann Sebastian Bach
It can not be emphasized too strongly
or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists,
but by Christians; not on religions, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
For this very reason peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum,
prosperity and freedom of worship here.
