Bradford Of Plymouth Plantation

Bradford always refers to the Bible when he wants to make a point. This clearly shows his dedication, knowledge, and trust in the Word. "Let them therefore praise the Lord, because He is good: and His mercies endure forever.” He’s very merciful unto His people. But Bradford also show the disciplinary side of God when his children go against his word. “Yea, let them which have been redeemed of the Lord, shew how He hath delivered them from the hand of the oppressor." This reminded me of a sermon the Pastor preached about being a living witness for God. He testified on how there were so many times he could have been dead, but by the grace and mercy of Christ, his life was spared. And no he tells this testimony wherever he goes, having faith that it will help someone along the way. The Pastor mentioned when the Holy Ghost moves upon our heart to testify we don't know who it is for. It could be someone struggling with salvation, and by giving a testimony allow that person to trust Christ. It could be a brother or sister in Christ that is going through something that you have gone through.
