our inheritance

Have we given over our inheritance? Have we traded it for the promise of something better? Have we sold it for a price?
We, in this country of ours, have been given an inheritance from our fathers. It is an inheritance that was very costly to obtain and it should be cherished and protected. The inheritance that has been passed down from our fathers was based on the idea of freedom and liberty for all but specifically to provide the ability to freely worship God and live our lives based upon His Truth. Our inheritance provides a firm foundation that enables our country’s leadership to maintain our freedom. And this foundation is based on truth that does not change.
Yet we have moved to a time when we are not standing firm as Naboth did. We are giving away our inheritance, ours as well as our children’s, to the Ahabs of today for the promise of something better! What could be better than our freedom and our liberty? What price can even compare to the cost that has been paid to provide our inheritance? We have come to a time in our history where truth has become relative and there is no longer absolute truth – our foundation is crumbling, our inheritance traded away.
Arise, people of God, and stand firm as Naboth did and do not trade nor sell your inheritance. For the price of giving away your inheritance will be persecution.

Ahab spoke to Naboth, saying, " Give me your vineyard, that I may have it for a vegetable garden because it is close beside my house, and I will give you a better vineyard than it in its place; if you like, I will give you the price of it in money."
But Naboth said to Ahab, "The LORD forbid me that I should give you the inheritance of my fathers.
