American Minute with Bill Federer
The Civil War began on Wilmer McLean's farm in Manassas Junction, Virginia, with the First Battle of Bull Run. A Union shell exploded in his kitchen.
Wilmer McLean moved to get away from the conflict, yet almost four years later his new home, near Appomattox Court House, Virginia, was the agreed location for General Robert E. Lee to surrender to General Ulysses S. Grant on APRIL 9, 1865.
Ken Burn's documentary film of the Civil War stated that the war began in Wilmer McLean's front yard and ended in his front parlor.
The Civil War resulted in approximately 258,000 Confederate deaths and 360,000 Union deaths.
General Lee took off his sword and handed it to General Grant, and Grant handed it back.
The next day, General Lee issued his final order:
"After four years of arduous service, marked by unsurpassed courage and fortitude...I have determined to avoid the useless sacrifice of those whose past services have endeared them to their countrymen.
By the terms of the agreement, officers and men can return to their homes."
Robert E. Lee concluded:
"I earnestly pray that a merciful God will extend to you His blessing and protection."

Tables of Truth
Roman Catholic Church versus the Bible. Written by Pat Franklin, a ‘cradle Catholic’ educated at Catholic schools in America.
I read the New Testament for myself (a Catholic version of the Bible) in England in 1981 and saw that Catholicism was not right, but that salvation was by faith in Christ alone. I knelt down in my bedroom and confessed my sins to the Lord Jesus and asked Him to let me be one of His people. From that day I have belonged to Him. This is copyright, and cannot be offered for sale, but I (Pat) urge our readers to print out a hard copy or copies and give them out free to friends and relatives so that the truth of this gets out far and wide. God bless you in your efforts to inform people. Here we have set out some of the main differences between Christianity and Islam. The two are diametrically opposed, with no common ground of any sort and no possibility of any dialogue ever. Compiled by Pat Franklin. Here is the shortest, simplest Table of Truth I have so far devised to prove that the Catholic Church is a false church, not true Christianity - not the church Jesus set up at all ! An ‘aura’ is a distinctive atmosphere as in an ‘aura of mystery’ ; special quality or air around something or someone. But in paranormal, New Age circles an aura is:
- A supposed coloured emanation surrounding someone
- Coloured field around someone’s head https://yeshuaspeople.com/tonghamcf/sermon/5-11-23-why-has-one-nation-been-singled-out-for-such-hatred-israel/
