Independence Now And Independence Forever

Scripture Text: Jeremiah 34:12 - 17

After being delivered from Egyptian bondage, the Hebrew people made a covenant with God to proclaim and provide Liberty throughout the land. But after being freed from servitude themselves, they broke their covenant with God and enslaved their own countrymen. They traded the role of slave for the role of slave-master.

Accordingly, God sent Jeremiah to prophecy to the Hebrews that for their sin of rejecting Liberty, He would send them into captivity again, this time by the Babylonians.

Pastor Baldwin rehearses this Bible principle and quotes much from our Declaration of Independence and from America's Founding Fathers regarding the Declaration. He also rehearses with us the heavy price of toil and blood that the founders paid for signing the Declaration.

Pastor Baldwin then lists 15 Liberty principles upon which America was founded and shows how our nation's spiritual and political leaders are following the same path as the Old Testament Hebrews by rejecting America's commitment to Liberty. He further reminds us that if God spared not the apple of His eye (Old Testament Israel) for its betrayal of God's principles, He will not spare the United States when we do the same thing.

This is an unforgettable Independence Day address.
