And again....
The Word of God was hungrily sought by the Confederate soldiers,
and great efforts were made to provide Bibles from the printing presses in Nashville and other
Southern cities and by importation from Great Britain. Dr. Moses D. Hoge of Richmond risked
his life in running the blockade from Charleston, and later into Wilmington, in order to secure
copies from the British and Foreign Bible Society. That organization was impressively generous.
He went to purchase, but he returned with a gift of 15,000 Bibles, 50,000 Testaments, and
250,000 copies of the Gospels and Psalms bound together. That they were needed is attested by
the incessant demand for them on the part of the chaplains and missionaries with the forces.
AND JUST THINK...THE SOUTH COULD HAVE WON IF THEY DIDN'T PUT SO MUCH EFFORT/FAITH IN "GOD".
STAY/REMAIN/HAVE FAITH/HAVE POSITIVENESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
