KJV Galatians 5:16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. 18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. 19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. 24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

KJV Luke 17:11 And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. 12 And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: 13 And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. 14 And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed. 15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, 16 And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. 17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? 18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. 19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

Fourteenth Sunday After Trinity

Lord God, heavenly Father, who by Thy blessed word and Thy holy baptism hast mercifully cleansed all who believe from the fearful leprosy of sin, and daily dost grant us Thy gracious help in all our need: We beseech Thee so to enlighten our hearts by Thy Holy Spirit, that we may never forget these Thy blessings, but ever live in Thy fear, and, trusting fully in Thy grace, with thankful hearts continually praise and glorify Thee; through Thy Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Ghost, one true God, world without end. Amen.

                                    American Freedom 
                        Came from the Scriptures

Those who came over from England came with KJV Bibles, printing, and resistance to English tyranny. The path comes all the way from the Old and New Testaments.

St. Paul - Freedom Came from Paul to Luther
Paul was highly regarded as a Jewish scholar and Roman citizen. The Risen Christ converted Paul  - and the new Apostle began the rugged work of preaching to Jews and non-Jews, converting them and also enraging them. Paul showed our future world that freedom could move through manage societies and languages, always with the truth of freedom through faith in the Savior. 


Martin Luther - Freedom given from the Elector and then to Scriptures
Luther was the perfect example of slavery to kings, monks, and popes. Unfortunately for many, Luther began to see that the Scriptures were far more powerful than the other books and teachers so appealing to Medieval teachers. 
    The Elector was short on the votes for the Roman Catholic ruler, so Luther had the leverage on the better votes 500 years ago. The winepress - soon a printing press - sent Luther's work all over Europe and in all languages.

Tyndale - English, Burned at the Stake - Freedom and the Future KJV Bible
"Tyndale had written on topics like justification by faith."
    The best translator for the English Bible became the hidden translator and the invisible translator. But now we can trace what was done in the midst of all those attempts at that time. Tyndale refused to lie about his work, and he was killed then burned at the stake. "Lord open the king's eyes!" - his final words. So Tyndale was not embossed on the KJV Bible but its beauty and clarify were.
    

Freedom KJV America - Patriots - The Parker Honors
    They have traced a relative back to the Patriots, men who risked their lives to escape from English tyranny and enjoy their freedom.
