1 Judges 15:14-19 Freedom Is Not Free

2 We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. Thomas Jefferson We have this day restored the Sovereign to whom all men ought to be obedient. He reigns in heaven, and from the rising of the setting of the sun, let His Kingdom come. Samuel Adams

3 The fundamental basis of this nation’s law was given to Moses on the Mount. The fundamental basis of our Bill of Rights comes from the teaching we get from Exodus and St. Matthew, From Isaiah and St. Paul. I don’t think we emphasize that enough these days. Harry S. Truman

4 It cannot 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. Patrick Henry

5 It is the duty of nations, as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God and to recognize the sublime truth announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord. Abraham Lincoln The religion which has introduced civil liberty is the religion of Christ and His apostles... This is genuine Christianity, and to this we owe our free constitution of government. Noah Webster

6 Freedom is not a gift bestowed upon us by other men, but a right that belongs to us by laws of God and nature… I never doubted the existence of the deity, that He made the world, and governed it by His providence… The pleasure of this world are rather from God’s goodness than our own merit… Whoever shall introduce into the public affairs the principles of primitive Christianity will change the face of the world. Benjamin Franklin

7 The Declaration of Independence first organized the social compact on the foundation of the Redeemer’s mission… It laid the cornerstone of human government upon the first precepts of Christianity. John Quincy Adams Proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof. Leviticus 25:10 Inscription on the Liberty Bell

8 “We will convey our deep appreciation for the Islamic faith, which has done so much over the centuries to shape the world — including in my own country. As a student of history, I also know civilization’s debt to Islam. Islams has a proud tradition of tolerance.” Islam has always been part of America.” President Barack Obama

9 Judges 15:14-19 14 When he came to Lehi, the Philistines came shouting against him. Then the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him; and the ropes that were on his arms became like flax that is burned with fire, and his bonds broke loose from his hands. 15 He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, reached out his hand and took it, and killed a thousand men with it. 16 Then Samson said: "With the jawbone of a donkey, Heaps upon heaps, With the jawbone of a donkey I have slain a thousand men!"

10 Judges 15:14-19 17 And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, and called that place Ramath-lehi. 18 And he was sore athirst, and called on the LORD, and said, Thou hast given this great deliverance into the hand of thy servant: and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised? 19 But God clave an hollow place that was in the jaw, and there came water thereout; and when he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived…
