TXT -History of the Bible (how it came to be)

This is a podcast from Pastor Craig Groeschel( www.Lifechurch.tv ) and it discuss the the evolution of the bible. Also takes a minute to introduce us to a online bible www.youversion.com

John Foxe-"Foxe's Book of Martyrs"

John Foxe created a testimony of Christian Martyrs, by using manuscripts and eyewitness accounts of the protestants persecution under Queen Mary and those who preceded her, whom persecuted all Christians without regard to nomination .This "Book of Martyrs" as it became known after it was written in English also called " Acts and Monuments of These latter and Perilous Days" persuaded popular opinion about Catholicism for at least a Century.

Foxes books were first published in 1554 in Strasbourg, France, 1563 it was published in english in England. Foxe was influenced by Hugh Latimer and William Tyndale ,Protestant zealots ,while teaching as a professor at Oxford University. John Foxe wanted to give a historical and testimonial work to emphasize the unflinching devotion that followers of Christ can have to bring forth the gospels.

In this coming blog series we will go through the Books of John Foxe's Book of Martyrs and explore the sacrifice,the sadness, brutality and unshakable faith that people can posses.We will dissect the historical and biblical aspects and separate Fact from fiction. I have added a link at the top to a recent study in the last 3 years on Foxes work has been produced and a new highly researched version of the books has been created and it will be one of my sources for the future blogs along with my english abridged version on my desk, which can be a tad easier to read and understand.

The first blog in this series will discuss the persecution of the early Christians and the apostles, along with a contrast to some books of the bible in contrast to Foxes research. I hope you enjoy reading future posts.

Gettysburg Address

Below is a video paying Homage to the Men who died at Gettysburg , Pennsylvania

As well as one of the greatest Presidents that ever served.Also below the video is the Gettysburg address speech given by Abraham Lincoln at Gettysburg, PA

To honor those who gave their lives in the name of freedom even those who's vision of it was strayed.

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honoredIt is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Abraham Lincoln
