CRY FREEDOM




150 years ago
In a little town in Texas
At the Alamo
A group of 119 or 120 men
Were WAITING for HELP


A group led by Colonel William Travis
A group that included famous men
Like Davy Crockett and William Bowie


Men
Fighting for their independence
Men fighting for an ideal
A 100 or so men
Fighting for the beginnings
Of the statehood of Texas


General Sam Houston and his army
Did come---too late
For these men
But NOT too late
For the ideal---the statehood of Texas


2,000 years ago
There was another revolution going on
A revolution
To return to the Word of God


A revolution started by one man
Jesus Christ


A revolution
To teach us how to live
A revolution
To teach us how to forgive
A revolution
To teach us how to live lives
Of kindness and compassion


This revolution
Faced even longer odds
Than those few men down in Texas faced


One man
Backed by twelve
But in the end
One man standing alone
Unto his dying breath---committed to his ideals


CRY FREEDOM


Sam Houston’s army was too late
For those 120 men
But NOT too late
To finish the job---that those men started


CRY FREEDOM


The 12 did return ( one replaced )
As we assume---so did the 72
And millions and millions of others


Too late
For that one man
But NOT too late
For those ideals to be accomplished


My friends
This world is spiraling downwards
More and more so each day


It is time
For a new army
Committed to Christ’s ideals---to step forward


“You my brothers
Were called to be free
But do not use your freedom
To indulge the sinful nature
Rather serve one another in love
The entire law
Is summed up by a single command
Love your neighbor as yourself” Galatians 5:13-14


God and love
Versus hatred and resentment
SPIRIT over the flesh


It is time for us to stand up
To stand firm---to stand tall


Let us be slaves to God
Let us be slaves to love
Let us live
For the benefit of each other
And those yet to come


Let us
Teach God’s ways---Not human ways
Let us truly live out
THE GREAT COMMISSION


“ALL authority in heaven
And on earth
Have been given to me


Therefore
Go and make disciples of all nations
Baptizing them
In the NAME of the FATHER
And of the Son
And of the HOLY SPIRIT
And teaching them
To obey everything---I have commanded you
And SURELY I am with you
ALWAYS
TO THE VERY END OF THE AGE” Matthew 28:19 &20


And maybe ---if we do that
Maybe one day---we can ALL


CRY FREEDOM!

Ps “If you hold to my teachings
You are really my disciples
Then you will KNOW the truth
And the truth will set you FREE” John 8:31
