George Barrell Cheever, a Congregationalist & Presbyterian minster, argues against slavery. God has uniformly spoken against oppression (Malachi 3:5, Ps 119:134). The claim of property in people is the sum of all these oppressions.
Today, some try to rehabilitate the reputation of slavery, to forbid teaching its history.
How can you protect the stranger, fatherless, widows, the servant, and hireling? Any one particularly at risk today?
Quote of the day, 12 June: St. John Paul II
Today we are celebrating the victory of those who, in our time, gave their lives for Christ, in order to possess life forever in his glory. This victory has a special character, since it was shared by clergy and laity alike, by young people and old, by people from different classes and states….
There are diocesan and religious priests who died because they chose not to abandon their ministry and because they continued to serve their fellow prisoners who were sick with typhus; some were tortured to death because they defended Jews.
In the group of Blessed there are religious brothers and sisters who persevered in the service of charity and in offering their torments for their neighbour. Among the blessed martyrs there are also lay people.
There are five young people formed in the Salesian oratory; a zealous activist of Catholic Action, a lay catechist tortured to death for his service, and a heroic woman, who gave up her own life in exchange for that of her daughter-in-law who was with child.
These blessed martyrs are today inscribed in the history of holiness of the People of God on pilgrimage for over a thousand years in the land of Poland.
If we rejoice today for the beatification of one hundred and eight martyrs, clergy and lay people, we do so above all because they bear witness to the victory of Christ, the gift which restores hope.
As we carry out this solemn act, there is, in a way, rekindled in us the certainty that, independently of the circumstances, we can achieve complete victory in all things through the One who has loved us (cf. Rom 8:37).
The blessed martyrs cry to our hearts: Believe in God who is love! Believe in him in good times and bad! Awaken hope! May it produce in you the fruit of fidelity to God in every trial!
Saint John Paul II
Homily, Eucharistic Celebration, Apostolic Journey to Poland
Beatification of 108 Polish Martyrs
Warsaw, Sunday, 13 June 1999
Note: Three days later, during the Eucharistic celebration in Wadowice, St. John Paul II remarked: “I am pleased that I was able to beatify, together with one hundred and eight martyrs, Blessed Father Alfonsus Mary Mazurek, a pupil and later a worthy teacher in the minor seminary attached to the Convent. I had the opportunity to meet personally this witness of Christ who in 1944, as prior of the convent of Czerna, confirmed his fidelity to God by a martyr’s death. I kneel in veneration before his relics, which rest in the Church of Saint Joseph, and I give thanks to God for the gift of the life, martyrdom, and holiness of this great Religious.”

Thomas Watson, English Puritan, teaches on good works. Some flip out with “jealousy” when works are stressed, acting as if this were mere Catholic doctrine. But should we teach Jesus’ words, or fear men?
I’ve got those bruises, talking in conservative Lutheran circles.
How can you speak the truth as it is in Jesus?
