When it comes to being an American who’s truly free from sinful slavery, context and definition matter!
As you prepare to celebrate Independence Day, stop and realize that the “freedom” our U.S. founding fathers wrote about and fought for is freedom to do what’s right in God’s sight.
This is why an American Revolutionary War cry was “No king but King Jesus.” And it’s why U.S. Founding Father John Adams said he wanted to live in a free country where he could exercise his Christian values without punishment.
So embrace your freedom! But instead of redefining freedom as freedom to sin and do whatever you want, understand that true American freedom is our freedom to obey God rather than obeying immoral tyrants – including the tyranny of our own flesh.
The American Founding is a unique and remarkable moment in human history, marking the beginning of a new order of the ages. It was the first time the people, as the only earthly source of political authority, exercised their right to establish government based on their consent.
As Alexander Hamilton observed in the opening salvo of the first Federalist paper, Americans were “to decide the important question, whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government on the basis of reflection and choice, or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force.”
The Founding generation understood that they were dramatis personae on the world stage, cast and called to prove the capacity of mankind for self-government. If they succeeded, the forces of despotism would never again find their ambitions unobstructed.
Biblical freedom is not self-centered. It is others-focused. Christ sets us free not so we can do whatever we want, but so we can finally do what we were created for—loving God and serving others.
In a culture that defines freedom as individual rights, God’s Word reframes it as relational responsibility. The freest people are those who no longer live for themselves.
Practical advice: Look around. Who can you serve today? What can you sacrifice to uplift someone else? Use your freedom to bring life and healing to those in need.
So, stand firm. Don’t go back to chains. Live free—not for yourself, but for Christ and His Kingdom. Use your liberty to bless others, walk in holiness, and glorify God. That is true freedom—and you have it in Christ.
“Whosoever shall introduce into public affairs the principles of primitive Christianity will change the face of the world.” – Benjamin Franklin
“I have always said and always will say that the studious perusal of the Sacred Volume will make us better citizens.” – Thomas Jefferson
“The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: it connected, in one indissoluble bond, the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity.” – John Quincy Adams
“A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they lose their virtue they will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader.” – Samuel Adams
“Because we have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion … our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” – Letter of President John Adams in 1798

Have you noticed now we’re fighting for basic civilization?
The war in Los Angeles County is about enforcement of immigration laws and laws against hoodlums (those burning, vandalizing, injuring, and looting).
Twenty years ago, enforcing laws regarding social order wasn’t controversial. But since then, the Democrat Party has bared its New Communist soul to engage in “revolutionary terror” and “well-organized violence,” and to elevate their raw, naked power over any written laws.
So, on June 14, when millions of Leftists held their “No Kings” protests, SaveCalifornia.com went public about how the hypocritical Left has been slavishly obeying tyrants for years, and that the biggest “king” in California is the unconstitutional and evil Gavin Newsom:
Regarding what the biased Big Media call “protestors,” these hoodlums and vandals attacking police and property are nothing more than re-baked “Black Lives Matter” racists and anarchists — devoted to devilish, Marxist/Communist ideology, which justifies “revolutionary terror” in the pursuit of raw, dehumanizing power.
As SaveCalifornia.com reminded our social media follows on June 7:
But the Lying Left doesn’t relent in the face of facts, does it?
This is why perhaps the most wicked Democrat in the California State Legislature announced his anti-ICE bill on June 16. Yet the author, homosexual activist Scott Wiener of San Francisco, is ignoring a key factpointed out by Fox News reporter Bill Melugin: “California has zero authority/jurisdiction to regulate what federal law enforcement does.”
This bad bill targets ICE agents by trying to prohibit them from covering their faces, and requiring them to show ID on their uniforms, by name or other identifier.
Todd Lyons, ICE’s acting director, has defended his officers using facemasks (https://tinyurl.com/5624f7jh), saying they wear them to protect themselves from death threats and online harassment.
Lyons said at a news conference earlier this month in Boston to announce nearly 1,500 arrests in the region as part of a monthlong “surge operation”: “I’m sorry if people are offended by them wearing masks, but I’m not going to let my officers and agents go out there and put their lives on the line, their family on the line because people don’t like what immigration enforcement is.”
And now, it appears Newsom & Co. is about to get another public black mark for their unconstitutional, anti-American support of violent insurgents.
On June 17, all three judges on a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals panel seemed to agree that a U.S. president has vast discretion to deploy the military, including a state’s National Guard, where needed.
There’s no definite date when this 3-judge panel of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals will rule. There’s also no court order in effect that pulls back or limits President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth using the California National Guard to protect federal agents and assist with immigration enforcement.

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them. The Bible, Romans 1:28-32

With this being a deadline week to pass bills in their house of origin, many bad Democrat Party bills have already passed, including more “LGBTQIA+” tyranny and indoctrination, and more baby-killing via abortions.

What to do about RINOs? Replace them by refusing to support them.
Having a Democrat win the seat for a term will allow you to help expose their evil deeds, and importantly, give you motivation to recruit and support a conservative, constitutional, pro-family fighter to win in the next election.
