k afternoon and a Happy Fourth of July Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. Roughly 2000 years ago, Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, gave us our freedom when He died on the cross and rose again, three das later. We are now free of the bandage of sin and the Devil. Give all praise to our Creator God and His Son, Jesus. Have a blessed day today and always.
