Will Grigg?s Liberty Minute

March 12, 2009

For more than a decade, Tim Masters of Ft. Collins, Colorado was pursued for a hideous murder he didn?t commit.

He was eventually convicted without so much as a molecule of physical evidence to connect him to the crime. After nearly a decade behind bars, Masters was released after DNA analysis corroborated his innocence.

Masters was convicted because he was a convenient suspect. A teenager at the time, Masters lived near the location where the body of the murder victim was found. The victim resembled his late mother, who had died exactly four years earlier.

Following the advice of his father, a military veteran, Masters cooperated with the police and submitted to every demand.
Summarizing his experience in a recent interview, Masters declared: ?You shouldn?t always submit to authority. Our country wouldn?t exist if everyone submitted to authority.?

The wisdom in those words is the product of painful experience.

Let us take back the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free.
