Help Me Locate The New “Black Regiment” Of Patriotic Preachers


Faithful readers of this column know of my burden for
the pastors of America. Without informed, energized, and
engaged pulpits, I see little hope for the maintenance
of

liberty
and

independence
in this land.

When the colonies broke

free from the shackles of the Crown,
it was the
moral and spiritual strength of colonial pulpits that
helped lead the way. These

revolutionary preachers
became known as

The Black Regiment,
due to the long, black robes
they were known to wear in the pulpit.

The Black Regiment taught their congregations the
principles of freedom Sunday by Sunday. They expounded,
explained, and extrapolated the Biblical principles of
authority and jurisdiction carefully and meticulously.
As a result, the men of

colonial America
were so well informed, both
spiritually and politically, that when the time came to
declare their independence, they had both the heart and
mind to do it.

Statesmen
took up the pen, and

soldiers took up arms
in the greatest fight for
freedom in world history. And leading both statesman and
soldier was the Black Regiment.

If there is one question that I receive more than any
other, it is, "Chuck, do you know a pastor like you
in such and such a city?"
I receive those letters
and emails constantly. It is a heavy burden. I know they
are out there, but where?

I must admit that I often fall victim to the same
"woe is me"
syndrome as did

Elijah
. I find myself crying,

"I, even I only, am left."
However, as God had

7,000 prophets
in Israel that had not bowed the knee
to Baal, so, too, God has a remnant-host of Black
Regiment preachers in America today. The problem is,
they are scattered hither and yon with little notice or
recognition.

Therefore, I use this column today to enlist the help
of my readers. Will you help me locate the Black
Regiment? If you know of any Bible-believing,
Gospel-preaching pastor who would qualify as being a
Black Regiment preacher, would you please let me know
who they are?

Before sending me your list of names, let`s set some
ground rules. In order to qualify as a Black Regiment
pastor, the following criteria must be met:

1. He is a

Bible believer
: he believes the Bible is God`s holy
and authoritative Word.

2. He is the head of his own
home, having his wife and children in subjection to his
authority. No henpecked men here.

3. He is the spiritual
leader and shepherd of his local congregation, not a
committee-controlled man.

4. He is a strong proponent
of the

Declaration of Independence,
the U.S. Constitution,
and

Bill of Rights.

5. He understands the
necessity and integrity of sovereign national borders.
And, to the degree that he understands it, has publicly
spoken out against

amnesty for illegal aliens
and the burgeoning

North American Union.

6. He understands freedom of
speech and believes that a preacher is a spokesman for
God (not the State) and has publicly decried so-called


"hate crimes"
legislation
that would

prohibit preachers from preaching Biblical truth

regarding homosexuality.

7. He has publicly promoted
the

sanctity of life by
preaching and protesting against

abortion.

8. He has publicly
repudiated the unconstitutional policies of President
Bush in his promotion of the

USA Patriot Act,
warrantless

wiretaps
and eavesdropping, and the deceptive manner
in which he

led America
into an undeclared, unprovoked, and
preemptive war against Iraq.

9. He has publicly resisted
"Seeker-Friendly," and "Purpose-Driven,"
and "Emerging Church" church growth movements.

10. He believes the church
has a responsibility to be the

salt
and light of the world. That is, that we are to
win souls to Christ, and resist Satan in whatever form
(spiritual, social, political, cultural, etc.) he
reveals himself.

Will you help me find such men? Please email me with
as much contact information as possible, including the
name of the pastor and church, his address, phone
number, and email address.

I already have a short list of under 100 men who seem
to be of Black Regiment caliber. I am confident there
are many hundreds more.

We need to be in contact with each other. We need to
pray for each other. We need to support each other. We
need to inform each other. We need to encourage each
other. This Black Regiment list can be a tool to help
accomplish all this and more.

If you know of only one such man, please let me know
who he is. He might be thinking, "I, even I only, am
left."
He needs to know he is not alone. We all need
to know that we are not alone.

Thanks for your help. I will keep readers of this
column posted as to the results of my appeal.
