As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
We, Protest, before God and Man.............
It is amusing in these paid pablum pansies of ANTIFA and Black Lives Matter in they have no declaration, no articles, no thesis, as the foundations of civilization have already been laid in Luther and Jefferson.
Each of you reading this have no idea who you are or why you are called what you are. In the year of 1529 AD in the year of our Lord, the German Princes summoned a council or Diet at Speyer, in the upheaval of Peasant Rebellions, Knight Rebellions and something which would shake the world to it's foundations in Martin Luther.
At Speyer, it was decided that in the German states, the Catholic ones would persecute the Lutherans, and the Lutheran States would promote Lutheranism.
This mistreatment of the reformers by Emperor Charles, the Pope and Catholics were met with the words of protest, but the word protest has nothing to do with insurrection in these Christians liberated from Roman popery. The word protest meant to TESTIFY.
We hold these Truths to be self evident....
We, Testify before God and man.......
These were the words the Princes of Germany, led by the Saxons, that those who testify that all men are created equal before God, and that we are all priests to God in being Faithful to Him.
The name Protestant was never about protesting. It is about testify about Faith.
There were two men who began the liberation of Germany in spirit, they were the knight, Ulrich von Hutten, and the professor, Dr. Martin Luther.
Everything you are, everything the world became in civilization, is owed to these princes of Germany.
