William Still

    La vie de William Still fut un témoignage de résilience et une force puissante contre l'injustice. Né dans l'esclavage, il assura non seulement sa propre liberté, mais se consacra à aider d'innombrables autres dans leur périlleux voyage vers la liberté. Son instruction autodidacte le conduisit à des postes influents au sein des sociétés abolitionnistes, où il défendit la cause des esclaves fugitifs avec une perspicacité unique. Gérant une station vitale sur le chemin de fer clandestin depuis sa propre maison, il documenta méticuleusement ses efforts, fournissant un historique de son profond impact.

      The Christian s greatest target is to glorify God and to enjoy glorifying Him. The path to this target of enjoying God is described as striving towards spiritual maturity. William Still describes that path through the three results of the death of Jesus - the removal of sins from the believer, the mastery of sin and the defeat of satan, the motive power behind that sin. Living in the shadow of the Cross is living in victory, a victory which means peace with God and hope for eternity.
