When I woke up today I was one of the defeated. I had fled my post & deserted my King. I was/am unworthy of my salvation & my calling. Because of me, & those like me, our Old Republic has been destroyed.

 

The evil ones rule. They sit in positions of power. They take titles of honor once reserved for the servant leaders of the Old Republic. The judges rule as princes. The evil, warped & deviant wear the robes of education. They indoctrinate our children with values foreign to us and our fathers sucking the life from our young.

 

The corrupt & perverse rule the airwaves. Their poison rots & eats at our souls. The once great churches are filled with vile serpents. As the first serpent, they beguile & deceive. They serve their Master.

 

I have not served mine. I know right. To me was given the Spirit of discernment. I was to stand as a Crusader; a knight of the Old Republic. Through my own fear & my own desires, I have not done the right. I have watched silently as the light has dimmed & the darkness spread. My sword has not tasted the blood of the Infidel. My shield has not protected my Lord or his people.

 

When I arose this morning, I was as the chaff, driven by the wind. I was beaten, frustrated, & being driven by the dark ones.

 

That was this morning. I have run all I am going to run. I don’t deserve grace. I don’t deserve another chance. But should my Lord, my Brother, my Captain touch me, should he who gives life but strengthen me, I will take my stand.

 

I humbly come to the Cross. I ask that my countless transgressions be placed under the shed blood of the Christ. I ask that God may return my sword & shield, that I may be emboldened & behave in a manner that is worthy of the Knight’s Mantle.

 

This night, I have come to my Acre. My Lord forms the walls. From here, there is no retreat. Let the demons & their servants gather. I pledge myself to the Lord God, to the defense of true Christians, to the protection of the weak & restoration of Godly Rule in this land.

 

May I love those who God loves. May I hate those who God hates.

Should I fall in its defense, I ask a good death that I may face those who have given all without shame.

My Sword, My shield, My all-

For Christ’s Glory- Amen"
