A Man on the Run from a God on the Throne! (5 of 9)
Jonah, You Have Said a Mouthful!
Pastor Steve N. Wagers
Jonah 2:9c
1. History is filled with great statements. Many of these statements were given by the right men, at the right place, at the right time, and for the right reason. By making a great statement, many made a great statement.
2. In March 1775, Patrick Henry gave us the immortal words:
"I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."
3. At Gettysburg Cemetery, Abraham Lincoln stated in November 1863:
"Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent....dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal."
4. In his famous "Cross of Gold" speech, in July 1896, William Jennings Bryant stated:

5. Declaring war on Germany, in 1917, Woodrow Wilson stated before a joint session of Congress:
