HISTORY AND MEANING OF THE BLACK ROBE REGIMENT: Take up the mantle of faithful believers who will pray through and take a righteous stand for God and His statutes! Since The American Revolution, the Christian ministers and influencers prayed and then took their stand for freedom from tyranny and were the most effective and most feared by the British. It was the British who called these Christian ministers the Black Robe Regiment because of their powerful leadership and influence and they led their congregations into victorious battles for freedom and independence for America. Even today as Believers, we know we all are ministers of the Gospel of Christ, and our first battle is to pray. To humble ourselves before God and cry out for our nation. Then we stand in righteousness when and where we need to in a Godly way to fight injustice and tyranny in its forms still today. We as Christians should be feared by the enemy when we pray today, as we battle for our families, churches, states and America today, just as the British feared the prayers, the spirit and influence to lead others victoriously in 1776, and win America's Independence! TAKE UP THE MANTLE AND PROUDLY DISPLAY YOUR PLACE IN THE RANK AND FILE OF THE BLACK ROBE REGIMENT! BE THE LEGACY!
THE FIRST MINISTER:
"It was Sunday morning early in the year 1776. In the church where Pastor Muhlenberg preached, it was a regular service for his congregation, but a quite different affair for Muhlenberg himself. Muhlenberg's text for the day was Ecclesiastes 3 where it explains, 'To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven; a time to be born, and a time to die, a time to plant, and a time to pluck what is planted...'"
"Coming to the end of his sermon, Peter Muhlenberg turned to his congregation and said, 'In the language of the holy writ, there was a time for all things, a time to preach and a time to pray, but those times have passed away.' As those assembled looked on, Pastor Muhlenberg declared, 'There is a time to fight, and that time is now coming!' Muhlenberg then proceeded to remove his robes revealing, to the shock of his congregation, a military uniform."
"Marching to the back of the church he declared, 'Who among you is with me?' On that day 300 men from his church stood up and joined Peter Muhlenberg. They eventually became the 8th Virginia Brigade fighting for liberty."
"Frederick Muhlenberg, Peter's brother, was against Peter's level of involvement in the war. Peter responded to Frederick writing, 'I am a Clergyman it is true, but I am a member of the Society as well as the poorest Layman, and my Liberty is as dear to me as any man, shall I then sit still and enjoy myself at Home when the best Blood of the Covenant is spilling? ...So far am I from thinking that I act wrong, I am convinced it is my duty to do so and duly I owe to God and my country."

SO TODAY STILL, WE AS FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST CONTINUE IN THE SAME SPIRIT OF PRAYER AND GOD-LED ACTIVISM TO SEE HIS HEART FOR OUR COUNTRY MANIFESTED..... and it all begins here...
