America was just an idea in the minds of non-conforming believers who came to her shores in the early 17th century. With the outbreak of the \u201cGreat Awakening\u201d in 1740, numbers of colonists were faced with the real crucible of baptism. Embracing \u201cbeliever\u2019s baptism\u201d in huge numbers, the converts of the Great Awakening faced a firestorm of opposition. Unknown to most Americans today, refusing infant baptism meant a loss of citizenship in the colonies.But a new nation with independent citizenship, apart from the chains of mother England was in the making. The part that the banished and persecuted Baptist people played in securing the liberties of this new nation has long been ignored.In these pages their long forgotten testimony is retold with vivid fervor. This is the story of scorn, ridicule, and hatred conquered by sacrifice and devotion. It is the story of one group of Americans who through patience and suffering gave us the America we all now enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presented by Thomas E. Kresal from: America in Crimson Red by James R. Beller. Quote from inside jacket cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NOTE from Pastor Tom: This book should be required reading in every Baptist home school and Bible Institute lest our history die and future generations of Baptist succumb to the revisionist history of our persecutors. The America we enjoy today is due to the sacrifices of our Baptist forefathers who fought and gained our liberty of conscience to lay the spiritual foundation for our great nation.Psalm 33:12 \u201cBlessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.\u201dBook available at: http:\/\/www.prairiefirepress.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
