Most Western philosophy Christians don't know that many of the religious phrases came from the American founding father Dr. John Wesley. The Freedom Movements and Civil Rights Activists of the 1960's create an atmosphere that caused changes throughout the American culture. The Holy Bible also began to altered as the verses in scripture slowly began to alter forcing to holy book to adapt to the feverish religious march in an attempt to create new up-dated revisions and translations. The American religion's earliest cultural languages used by followers of Holy Bible began to fade, By the 1970's, only a few of the words listed below were still in use today, and then only to polarize. Successfully, scriptural enlightenment will bring them into vogue again. Why? Mainly because people by nature forgive... Today, some of the listed words are used in religious poetry, music, and literature. These standard words arise interests because they are passed on into cultures by, and through, two centuries of religious standard expressions. So, remember, if you like to write lyrics, poems, or praises, it's always a good idea to use some of these founding American phrases. At this Dr. Wesley link, is the compiled list of his sermons and speeches. What a joy to read! God Bless.
