A Requiem for a Defender of Presbyterian Government
Charlton Heston"For now this mortal clay has fled, The pleasing object of our eyes;
To sleep among the silent dead, Till Christ shall bid his dust arise."
"...the God fearing, law-abiding, Caucasian, middle- class Protestant-or even worse, evangelical Christian, Midwestern or Southern- or even worse, rural, apparently straight-or even worse, admitted heterosexuals, gun-owning-or even worse, NRA-card-carrying, average working stiff-or even worse, male working stiff-because, not only don’t you count, you are a down-right obstacle to social progress. Your voice deserves a lower decibel level, your opinion is less enlightened, your media access is insignificant, and frankly, mister, you need to wake up, wise up, and learn a little something from your new-America............."
There are few figures in recent memory to whom the battle in the preservation of government, predicated upon the presuppositonalist motifs as the Founding Fathers intended,is as indebted as Charlton Heston.His "star power" and intransigent resolve;pursuant to ensuring the integrity of the Constitution of the United States,through the fraternal milieu of the National Rifle Association,are held as indemnifications of the Father's grace in the cause of American freedom.
The Merciful God the Father governs the course of men and nations and deigned meet and proper the freedoms enumerated in our government.Through the mortal vessels of John Calvin and John Knox,our precious liberties,preliminary and incumbent,were imputed by the Father's beneficence in the Calvinistic construct.Through the spoliation of what King George III of England referred to as the "Presbyterian Rebellion",we were led to this aim singularly by the Father's Holy Arm;to this end in 1776 with all concomitant circumstances and measures.
God,in His inerrant mercy and immutable Providence,called the Biblical Moses that Bro.Heston portrayed from the Ur people of the Chaldeans to lead the elect to loose the bonds of servitude.The favorable manifestation of His will and purpose was to prove the portion of the NRA.For,in due time,Brother Heston was freed from the degeneracy of the radical left several decades ago to guide the greatest fraternal vanguard of freedom from internal strife that could easily have proved its death knell to unprecedented strength and acclaim.
May we who have benefitted inestimably from this striking example resolve to press on with a vigilance befitting the magnanimity of Providence.In 1630,the pious John Winthrop delivered a sermon entitled "A Model of Christian Charity" which contained these words:
For we must consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill. The eyes of all people are upon us. So that if we shall deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken… we shall be made a story and a by-word throughout the world. We shall open the mouths of enemies to speak evil of the ways of God… We shall shame the faces of many of God's worthy servants, and cause their prayers to be turned into curses upon us til we be consumed out of the good land whither we are a-going.
It's up to us now!!!!!As our president,brother,benefactor and friend,Charlton Heston,has passed from toil to eternal recompense in Christ;we must endeavor to stay the course;as the foul prestidigitation of our enemies,foreign and domestic,is devoid both of apology and demarcation.With a unanimity and purpose that comes from and singularly reflects the benignity of the Sovereign God,let us engage proper obeisance to the patrimony of Charlton Heston,a good and faithful servant,by OUR example.
The NRA and the nation are better off because of you...
Goodnight,Brother Charlton......I'll see you when the morning comes!!!!!!!!!
