Sad news indeed. As main-stream Churches go, this leaves only Landover Baptist to carry forth the Works of The Lord.
Fred was a shining star in a firmament of dross, liberal attitudes and blasphemy. His tireless work to ensure that all US citizens went to heaven stands as an enduring legacy to the Christian Movement and an example to us all. We must not seek personal approval, nor curry the popularism that is the path to the Gates of Hell, but we must hold on to the timeless values handed to us By God before, at and after the incident at Mount Horeb.
I only hope that Fred's work will continue through his off-spring: he was a prophet before his time and, like many prophets, was insufficiently appreciated in his own land. His tolerance and broad minded views with those who did not see the world as clearly as he is a lesson to us all.
His work picketing funerals of the military although masterly did much to harden the hearts of the godless but, despite set-backs, in a Job-like fashion he persisted in his faith - indeed it strengthened as gay-marriage swept the land like the plague that it is.
Although seen by many True Christians as liberal and over-forgiving, Fred's work are written in the Book of Life. He has been called home by His Maker and will sit at the perfectly formed Right Hand of God.
Your absence is and will be missed.
