By American Faith

Americans have a long history of courage, boldly defending their beliefs with unwavering resolve. Boldness isn’t about being loud or contentious; it’s about fearlessly standing for truth, even when difficult. Today, it’s more crucial than ever not to remain silent as threats to freedom loom.

Across the nation, individuals are making sacrifices for what is right. These sacrifices are not in vain, from families pulling children from public schools to citizens speaking out at meetings and students protesting vaccine mandates. Yet, despite these acts of courage, many remain complacent, unwilling to make heartfelt sacrifices for future generations.

Throughout history, bringing truth to light has required boldness, often in the face of severe consequences. Yet, boldness springs from deeply held beliefs, and communities flourish when leaders express their true beliefs without fear.

In today’s tumultuous world, encouraging boldness and truth is essential. We cannot tolerate spineless leaders; instead, we must support those who bravely champion what is right, even when it’s unpopular.

Reflecting on the courage of historical figures like George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., and Thomas Paine, we see that greatness often arises from adversity. Each faced daunting challenges yet stood firm for their beliefs, even at great personal cost.

Their examples remind us that courage is an individual virtue and a societal necessity. We must rise to the occasion, defending our nation’s values and ensuring a better future for all. Let us not look back with regret but act boldly now for the sake of our country and future generations.

      • This generation shall not pass away before my return. Possibly 76 years have already passed by.
        How long will He tarry before His return?

        • 34 Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place.
          KJV
          "Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled"
          ASV
          "Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all these things be accomplished"
          AMP
          "I assure you and most solemnly say to you, this generation [the people living when these signs and events begin] will not pass away until all these things take place"

          However what we don't know is which generation Jesus was referring to because the disciples were asking two different questions, the end of the age, and His second coming.

          • Well considering that they’re only 7 years apart. I can safely say, less than 50 years from now.
            2 generation maybe!

  • Where does courage come from?

    If you are BLM then hatred for white people and the police could give you the courage to burn other people's properties down and to kill those who resist you.

    If you are LGBT then your hatred for God and God's sexual/biological order could give you the courage to destroy property and to beat up those who disagree with you and plan a massacre at the Family Research Council. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/floyd-lee-corkins-pleads-guilty-in-family-research-council-shooting/ .

    If you are environmental activist then fear can give you the courage to try to destroy masterpieces in museums and block traffic so people are late to work and mother's frantically trying to get there sick child to the doctor can be put in very bad situation.

    If you are pro-abortion then hatred for innocent unborn human lives could cause you to vandalize pro-life buildings and plan violence on the street.

    If you are a .born again Christian then the Spirit of Christ gives you courage to stand for life, liberty and God's mandate for society. The banner over you is love (God's love).

    2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

    • Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
      Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

  • Our founding documents guaranteed the the right to life until 1973.

    In 1973 seven men in black robes did violence to the Constitution. They pitted the Constitution against the Declaration of Independence that declared "the right to life".

    These seven men in black robes instituted the right of assassination of innocent unborn human life. Now if you're an atheist you have no objective moral basis to declare if this is right or wrong. In fact, in the fight concerning this issue, you might have atheists on both sides of the fence because they have no objective moral compass. It's a matter of opinion or mood.

    But those who believe in God yet who have gone along with the lie "a woman's right to choose" find themselves in opposition to a fundamental law of God "Thou shalt not murder". From my perspective, these seven men in black robes are presently and eternally receiving their judgment. It's amazing how many people they have led to hell with them.

    Every law is someone's idea of morality.Not all laws are moral and not all morality is enshrined in law. It's sad how our society has replaced logical , moral reasoning with emotional reasoning.

    Atheists have this false argument that when we are born we are all atheist. The truth of the matter is when we die we all become believers in God but for many, it is too late.

    • Psalm 51:1-19 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest. Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee. Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness. O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise. For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem. Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
