Bro. Ballestero:
Norman Rockwell is one of my personal “very favorite” artist (especially when it comes to capturing the true essence of The American Spirit). Thank you for this edition of The Ballestero Blog.
“What we obtain too cheaply, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value.”
(Thomas Payne)(1776)
“Posterity, you will never know how much it has cost my generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make good use of it.” (John Quincy Adams)
It cost our Savior more than this world can compute to purchase this precious Salvation as proclaimed by the Apostolic Church. It costs our predecessors more than most of us can possibly imagine, or appreciate, to bring this beautiful, powerful Apostolic message to us today.
Unfortunately, most of this generation has “forgotten” the “price that had been paid”, and thus regard this TRUTH far, far too lightly. May GOD continue to grant us men, such as yourself, who esteem, value, prize, and “pass on” this excellent Apostolic message of TRUTH and HOLINESS.
