For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

 From the Revolutionary War of 1775 to the present year 2024, and all the combined wars in between, a total of 1,304,705 American soldiers sacrificed their life defending this country. That’s a lot of lives! Freedom has a price and the soldiers who died were willing to risk everything to protect the very freedoms you have today. As you celebrate the birth of this great nation, pause to remember these brave men and women who laid down their life for you.

 There was another war that was fought, over 2,000 years ago, with only 1 fatality and that was Jesus Christ. The battle between good and evil, God and Satan, continues today and both forces are trying to acquire the souls and men and women. One gives eternal life in Heaven, the other is evil and its only reward is eternity in Hell. Each of us have a choice to make in this life, who we will serve. Jesus Christ, God’s Son, sacrificed His life as payment for the sins of mankind. By believing in His death and resurrection, you can share that eternal victory with Him. Rejecting Jesus Christ is victory for the enemy and you will not come out the winner.

 God has truly blessed us with this great nation, America. Why not celebrate America by giving thanks to the One who gave His all for your earthly freedoms and eternal reward that awaits you in Heaven. Celebrate life with the victory of Jesus Christ, your Savior today! God bless!
