Battle of Brice's Crossroads *Part 1* This is an amateur documentary/tour of one of the best excecuted battles in the history of the Civil War. A vastly outnumbered Confederate army is victorious with minimum losses; the battle was won by Confederate Major General Nathan Bedford Forrest. Maj. Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest was a cavalry general, he never lost a battle in which all of the Confederate forces were under his command. General Grant said that Forrest is the only cavalry general that he ever feared, one of his fellow generals agreed that they need to catch "That Devil Forrest" if it "Bankrupts the Treasury and costs 10000 men" Early in the video, I said that Forrest had an estimated 4000 troops against the Union 8500 troops. That is because I see the numbers changing that spectate the number of troops Forrest had, some books say 4200, some say 3800, and others say 3200.

KU KLUX KLAN Ku Klux Klan activities at Stone Mountain are deep-rooted, although the original conception of the memorial pre-dates the 1915 revival of the Klan. The revival of the Ku Klux Klan was emboldened by the release of DW Griffith's Klan-glorifying film The Birth of a Nation,[4] and by the lynching of Leo Frank, who was convicted in the murder of Mary Phagan.[5] On November 25, 1915, a group of robed and hooded men met at Stone Mountain to create a new incarnation of the Klan. They were led by William J. Simmons, and they included a group calling itself the Knights of Mary Phagan. A cross was lit, and the oath was administered by Nathan Bedford Forrest II, the grandson of the original Imperial Grand Wizard, Gen. Nathan B. Forrest, and was witnessed by the owner of Stone Mountain, Samuel Venable.

BibleStudyNow.webs.com http The University of Tennessee at Martin has the largest Baptist Collegiate Ministry (BCM) in the state of Tennessee. Great people, Great food, Great fellowship, Great time in the Word of God, praising His Holy Name. We just got a big snow, and our Winter Retreat was ALMOST cancelled, but we moved it to the BCM itself instead of Nathan Bedford Forrest State Park as planned. We had a blast studying about our Relationship with Christ and Others around us. We should love others just as Christ loved us. This is not a suggestion, but a command. The Golden Rule in Matthew 7:12 is a command, and as the latter part of the verse says, the Golden Rule sums up the entire law and the prophets. Hope you enjoy this video I made of a great and fun snowball fight!

Albert Pike (1809-1891) born on Dec 29. US lawyer, historian, general. Masonic author. Brig General, (Confederate Army), died in 1891. Well-known Masonic author (Morals and Dogma) and composer of the ritual for the concordant body, the Scottish Rite, Southern Jurisdiction, he was elected Sovereign Grand Commander of that body in 1859, an office he held until his death. Appointed Grand Orator of the Grand Lodge of Arkansas on November 7, 1864, from 1853 onward he was, at various times, chairman of numerous committees and boards, as well as Grand Representative of four jurisdictions. The Main founder of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) see also: The Scottish Rite's KKK Project Albert Pike created the 33rd degree of Masonry. Confessed LUCIFERIAN and founder of the KKK The Ku Klux Klan is an organization which prided itself ( and still does) in the torture and murder of men for the color of their skin. This is Demonic in itself. So we have a confessed LUCIFERIAN (666) who created the 33rd degree of masonry and founded the KKK. K is the eleventh number of the Alphabet. In other words the KKK can be represented as 11, 11, 11. 11+11+11=33. The same occult numbers of the World Trade Center attack is represented here by a confessed Luciferian. Albert Pike addressing the 23 Supreme Councils of the world on July 14, 1889:- "To you, Sovereign Grand Instructors General, we say this, that you may repeat it to the Brethren of the 32nd, 31st and 30th degrees: 'the Masonic Religion should be, by ...

Here's the old song Tenting Tonight. This song is also called Tenting on the old Campground. Its from back in old Civil War days or some say the War Between the States. I have illustrated the song with pictures of the average soldiers of the armies of the blue and the gray. No pictures of the commanding officers. Just the average Joe. You may have heard this song performed a bit more slowly than in my performance. My version snaps along at a brisk pace. In spite of that the wistfulness and poignant quality of this old song comes through. I thank you for viewing my video. I hope you like it. Please leave a comment.
