One Life to Lose - Nathan Hale
1755 – 1776

Romans 14:8, “For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.”

“I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.” Tradition states that Nathan Hale said this before his hanging on September 22, 1776. Unfortunately, he himself didn’t write it down. It was passed on secondhand, third-hand, cousin-of-an-uncle-of-a-friend-of-a-brother-style until it made it into the annals of history.

II Chronicles 7:14, “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

II Thessalonians 3:10, “For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.”

Susanna Winslow, walking down the dirt road that served as the main street in Plymouth, Massachusetts, was lost in thought. Walking toward the common cornfield, she thought of the past winter, when food was in such short supply that the Pilgrims had been reduced to a daily ration of five kernels of corn apiece.

What Is True of Christ is True of You

John 10:27, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:”

Since you are a saint in Christ by God’s calling, you share in Christ’s inheritance. That which is true of Christ is now true of you, because you are in Christ. It’s part of your identity.

Liberalism = Socialism
Proverbs 29:2, “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.”
