We hold the key to liberation
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008
In 1858, Abraham Lincoln closed a speech saying, “I leave you, hoping that the lamp of liberty will burn in your bosoms until there shall no longer be a doubt that all men are created free and equal.”
From the small towns of America to the refugee camps of Sudan, Christians hold the key to liberation - the profound belief that we are all equal, all children of God. Two hundred years ago, it was this belief that launched the first abolitionist movement in the Western world, and it is the same belief that propels abolitionists today. Around the world, we have brothers and sisters denied their dignity and bound by fear. In some small way, will you help them find the same freedom you’ve been given?
- John Coleman
