“saw the people’s need for God and took action. The price was high. Men and women gave their lives for this cause because they knew its value. They knew that no other volume had the power to change lives like the Holy Bible. No other book could transform broken people. No other manuscript had the power set free the prisoners of fear. This is the Sacred Word that they died for. This is the Bible that you and I have been given.”

“Historians will cite different reasons for this, but the truth of the matter is that the Holy Church had generations living and dying in fear. To hand them the truth would have been handing the keys to a chained slave. The people, too ignorant to understand that they were being manipulated, did whatever the Church asked of them. The Word of God is a powerful thing. The clergy knew this better than anyone.”

“Most of us have grown up with the Scriptures readily accessible to us. There are Bibles at every bookstore, in most hotel nightstands, and available as apps for our cell phones and tablets. This is a liberty we enjoy as free citizens, but just like any other freedom, it wasn’t free at all. It is all too easy to forget what it cost. Translating the Scriptures into English was a war that was waged for centuries.”

The reason being that the Latin Vulgate was later discovered later to have flaws, which is why modern translators defer to the Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic.”

“You were born into it.” “Because of who my parents were?” “That’s not what I said. You were born with a purpose far beyond anything we can know. Trouble will follow you. It always follows those who take a stand for what is right, but you will bear it.”

“And when you are afraid my darling, When you are afraid If worry claims you for her own If darkness shrieks your name Take courage, then, my dearest love, Although you cannot see Our God is watching o’er you, He’ll bring you back to me”
