As we begin the New Year, I quickly recognize that the enemy of truth and God’s Word is still seeking to silence believers with some of the same tactics I witnessed in the late 1970’s. I am grateful Phil Robertson with “Duck Dynasty” has now been put back on A&E. I was kicked off television for preaching God’s Word because of an awful law called “The Fairness Doctrine” which was indescribably unfair, especially to those who stood for biblical truth and principles. I refused to step back, stand down, and remain silent while the freedom of speech and the right to preach was being blatantly attacked. We organized what was called the Freedom Rally and it was attended by over 11,000 believers overflowing the Dallas Convention Center. Many major Christian leaders from all denominations joined together on the platform. It was the first time in many years Christians and church leaders came together in supernatural unity standing together in defense of freedom and biblical truth. I was 35 years old when I delivered the following message in defense of freedom and the proclamation of God’s Word.

It is time to awaken from slumber, put on the armor of light, and pierce the prevailing darkness with the light of liberating truth.

Where are the leaders like Nelson Mandela today?

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.

Gratitude is a virtue bigger than a holiday.

A day of national tragedy, but personal blessing.

What is this power source other than God upon which people erroneously and foolishly depend, even begin to worship, exalting an unprincipled, unbiblical worldview?

Freedom is at stake and all true believers to stand for truth against the flood of evil.

We must learn from one another what is true and best for the family of faith.
