 I want to remind us all of Dr. Stan Monteith's opening statement on his program "Radio Liberty," which was broadcast on the American Christian Network for many years. Dr. Monteith always opened his program with the following statement: "Reality is usually scoffed at; illusion is usually king. But in the battle for the survival of Western Civilization it will be reality, not illusion or delusion, that will determine what the outcome will be." Alexander Solzhenitsyn wrote an essay entitled "Live Not by Lies." Jesus said: John 8:32 ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. This program is being recorded on Wednesday, January 19, 2022, two days after the federal holiday honoring the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., for broadcast at a later date. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., was a man whose life is currently venerated by contemporary culture as embodying the highest virtues of righteousness and patriotism. The view that Martin Luther King, Jr., was a paragon of morality and righteousness, and that his legacy is one of increased opportunity and success for all, especially for people of color, is a myth that facts and reality refute. I will be reading from a number of sources, but especially from the article: "Time to Re-Evaluate the Legacy of Martin Luther King" By Vince Everett Ellison, which was published by American Thinker on January 12, 2022. I will often be interspersing my comments. By calling into question the veneration of Martin Luther King, I do not want anyone to think that I oppose the goal of equal protection of the law that Martin Luther King ostensibly promoted. Equal protection of the law is a Biblical principle found throughout the Bible: Leviticus 19:15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour. Deuteronomy 1:17 Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; but ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's Deuteronomy 16:19 Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous. 2 Chronicles 19:7 Wherefore now let the fear of the Lord be upon you; take heed and do it: for there is no iniquity with the Lord our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of gifts. Proverbs 28:21 To have respect of persons is not good: for for a piece of bread that man will transgress. Jesus and the story of the good Samaritan as describe in Luke 10:25-37. The hero of Jesus' story was a Samaritan, whom the Jews considered to be heretics and foreigners. Acts 10:34-35 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. Romans 2:11 For there is no respect of persons with God. James 2:8-9 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. Our foundational documents, the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution (as amended), both support the principle of equal protection under the law. Martin Luther King, Jr., referenced both documents during his "I Have a Dream" speech that he gave at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC in 1963. I will quote a portion of that speech: "In a sense we have come to our Nation's Capital to cash a check. When the architects of our great republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. "This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the inalienable rights of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness." I completely support the philosophy about equal protection of the law that Martin Luther King, Jr., stated in his "I Have a Dream" speech. As a Baptist pastor, he should also have referenced the Bible and quoted some applicable verses, some of which I have previously quoted during this program. The fact that the God-mocking, America-hating, globalist media venerates Martin Luther King, Jr., should alert people that Martin Luther King, Jr., was not the Christ-loving, Bible-believing, God-fearing, sin-hating Baptist preacher that many people think he was. Luke 6:26 "Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets." The second sentence of the Declaration of Independence: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." In the first ...
