April 21
On this day in 1918, Manfred von Richthofen, also known as the Red Baron, was shot down while chasing an allied plane behind enemy lines. This guy was clearly the best pilot during WWI, shooting down 80 planes before his error in judgement cost him his life. He was only 25 years old. I did a report on him in the seventh grade, so that's why I moved this event to the top of the heap. If he would have survived the war, who knows if history would have a little different. As a national hero he might have moved up the political ladder in post war Germany. Or if he would have gone through the military route, perhaps in his mid 40's, he might have made different decisions than those of the men who were actually in charge. This thought crossed my mind when I realized that one of the men who would go on to be in charge was
Herman Goring. He was a fighter pilot in WWI as well. In fact, he was a subordinate of the Red Baron.
This day is also the traditional date of the founding of Rome. Romulus and Remus, twin brothers, built a town together where they were raised by wolves. They started the fussin and the fuedin and Romulus killed his brother. Would it be called Reme if Remus killed Romulus?
Believe Jesus Christ is your savior for your sins. Jesus Christ is God Almighty in the Flesh. This is the Gospel, believe Jesus Christ shed his precious blood and died for you and all of your sins on the cross, he was buried and he rose again from the dead three days later from God's Power and you will be saved, you are a Born Again Christian and you will go to Heaven forever. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God to where we all deserve death, destruction and judgement in the Lake of Fire from the wrath of God to where we need a savior to save us for our sins forever. By receiving Jesus Christ's blood sacrifice as full payment for your sins you will be saved forever. It matters not how much you have sinned in the past, in the present and in the future for yourself to be saved. Once you are saved you are saved forever no matter what. Good works will not ever save you and no one and nothing else will. That is the Gospel and if you believe in the Gospel you are now a Born Again Christian and you are now saved and you will go to Heaven forever and that is the whole truth. Spread the truth. If we do good works for God as he commands, we will please God and he will give us rewards to have in Heaven forever! All glory goes to God forever! Praise God! Amen!
