November 2020
- By Ray Simmons
America will make a decision this November (2020) whether or not she wishes to remain the “home of the brave and the land of the free.”
I’m sure the Democrats say they will insure this home of the brave and the free if you elect them. I’m just as sure that if you do elect them you will never see another free election in this nation. For many years we have watched as both political parties worked to grant more and more power to the federal government, and as silently and unobtrusively as possible removed from we-the-people one freedom after another; passing laws they said were for our benefit. And if they couldn’t get a law passed they would introduce some new regulations to accomplish their goal.

Confederate Cavalry

While Horse and Hero Fell--They That Fought so Well - Part 1 of a Series
“Every morning brought a noble chance, and every chance brought out a noble knight.”—Alfred, Lord Tennyson in Morte d’Arthur, 1842, quoted by Winston Churchill in his June 4, 1940, “Finest Hour” speech.
There lingers to this day a romantic vision of Confederate cavalry that brings forth the images of Sir Walter Scott’s gallant knights of old. Many Southern cavalrymen, and to a certain extent the whole Confederate Army, were strongly influenced by the romantic novels of Scott, which were very popular reading in the South. They were also undoubtedly influenced by the nobility and military gallantry of many of the English poet Alfred, Lord Tennyson’s poems, such as Morte d’Arthur (1842) and Charge of the Light Brigade (1854).

Are We Listening?
- By Ray Simmons
Because of my love for this country and what it has meant to me I desperately desire to see it preserved for those who will come after me. Because of this, these columns often deal with events and trends I see that are moving to destroy the America that I have known and replace it with an America that is subservient to some global authority with a philosophy of government that is 180 degrees from that of our Founding Fathers. In so doing I sometimes lose sight of the title under which these articles are presented: From a Christian Perspective.

The Matchless Devotion of Black Confederates

The Battle against Politically Correct Chains - Part 2 of 2 of a Series
As I wrote last week in part 1 of this series, perhaps the best estimate of the number of both free and bonded blacks serving in the Confederate Army during the Civil War is about 65,000. This estimate came from Scott K. Williams’ comprehensive article, Black Confederates Heritage, written in 1998 and still available on the internet. Of an estimated 1.0 million men that served in the Confederate Army and Navy, this is about 6.5 percent. However, Williams’ estimate may not have sufficiently accounted for the large number of black teamsters vitally important to supporting Confederate supply lines.

The Democrat Party Is An Enemy Of Our Constitutional Republic! – Part 2
- By W.H. Lamb
“When the righteous are in authority (a-or are increased), the people rejoice; but when the wicked beareth rule, the people sigh.” - Proverbs 29:2 1599 Geneva Bible
“When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan.” - Proverbs 29:2 N.I.V.
Last time I ended with the contention that “neither of our two main political parties are the same NOW as they were originally…”. The perception has been that what we see today—the Democrat and Republican Parties as they currently exist—is what they have always been. But that is not the case.

Something To Think About
- By Ray Simmons
If you are really listening to find truth about what is going on in our nation (and around the world) you first need to take a thorough look at what is written in the Bible. Our Holy Bible is filled with prophetic information; some of those prophesies have already been filled, but many of them have not…many of them are being fulfilled right in front of our eyes to ones who know how to look for them. Scriptures also tell us that some of God’s people are lost because they lack knowledge*, and they lack that knowledge because they desire not to see it. There are many, many places in scripture warning us about false teachers; not necessarily preachers, but others may be filling what we are hearing with partial or total erroneous information: maybe Jesus was not "virgin-born,” maybe He didn’t really die on that cross, etc.

The Matchless Devotion of Black Confederates
- By Mike Scruggs
A Neglected Chapter of American History - Part 1 of a Series
At Appomattox Courthouse in April of 1865, an Alabama soldier by the name of Zeb Thompson stood, rifle by his side, within a stone’s throw of General Robert E. Lee when he yielded his sword to General Grant. Thompson had participated in many of the greatest battles of the War during his service to the Confederacy and had been wounded three times. Thompson, like several other Confederate soldiers looking on, was a black man. Also there was Private Needham Leach, one of two blacks, and ten whites left in Company C of the 53rd North Carolina Regiment. These were just a few of at least 50,000 and as many as 100,000 black slaves and freemen who served the Confederate cause in some military or naval capacity. Thompson indicated in his 1917 interview with the Birmingham Age-Herald that he had attended every Confederate reunion and was very proud of his war record.
