DAY#27 - A Month of Freedom Quotes:
Liberty Endangered
At the beginning of this series I thought that we (society as a whole) were just unappreciative of our freedom. Then, that quickly changed to thinking that we are on the precipice of losing our freedom to now, realizing that we have already lost many of our freedoms. This is a serious subject - I hope that you will pray for discernment and then stand up with strength from God, to preserve our freedom.
We will begin with the basics by defining "freedom".
Freedom - the absence of necessity, coercion or constraint in choice or action
- liberation from restraint/slavery from the power of another
James Madison was the 4th president and is known as "The Father of the Constitution".
I think that both of these abuses are atrocious but the abuse of power might slightly be the worst. I am reminded of "Animal Farm" by George Orwell and specifically this quote:
"Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely."
I fear that we are living under the tyranny of the "absolute corrupted" today.
