Rev. Frank Hughes, Jr., after his retirement, served as Interim Pastor at Northwest Baptist Church, Chesapeake, Virginia. One of his sermons, "Requisite for the President" (2 Chronicles 1:7-10) recorded on video, is applicable for today as it was when originally preached. The honesty and integrity of a president is a biblical mandate, and key to their success.

the 21st Century.

John Read's Christian honesty and integrity in the 1800s serve as important guideposts for us today.

My brother Jim and I grew up in a Christian home; were taught the Bible; taught to tell the truth; taught to confess sin and seek forgiveness; sought to live our lives in view of that background. In addition, our school teachers believed in the basic freedoms of our country and were diligent in passing on those values to us in the classroom.

News from the oldest, continuously published newspaper founded by Alexander Hamilton, is being censored. Due to the censorship of truthful news in the United States; in a blatant attempt to stifle freedom of the press, I have taken the unusual step of putting out these films from overseas news organizations which are reporting the truth, courtesy of SkyNews, Australia.

The censorship of documents, witness testimony, and truthful reporting on the current election is ongoing. We grew up in a time when you could depend on accurate news reporting; but that is becoming a thing of the past.
