This Flag Does Not Come Down: Freedom Under the Banner of the King

During the Golden Age of Piracy, pirates followed a strategic process to take over a "prize," a targeted ship. Shadowing, "Flyin' a friendly," and destroying the manifest are techniques the Barbarian Brotherhood used, which are identical to those Satan uses to highjack someone's life. Once on board, to signal their domination, they would raise their flag over the conquered vessel. This maneuver declared to all other ships-private, public, and pirate-"This one is mine and is now under my command." Drawing on his own life-threatening experiences, Art uncovers the schemes Satan, the Chief Thief, like the marauders of the high seas, used to conquer his life and steer him toward ruin. Aware of the grave peril he was in, Art called out to Jesus Christ, the Prince of Life, Who stepped onto his ship, tore the pirate's flag down, and raised His blood-bought, blood-stained banner. It is His flag that does not come down!Intertwined with Piratical History, this story about a shy, desperate-for-acceptance kid growing up in a Christian home shows how Satan, if given a foothold, can quickly turn it to become a life-changing, if not life-taking stronghold. Saturated with our Creator's relentless pursuit to reach and redeem each of our lives, this book will provide readers with insights into Satan's pirate-practices and encouragement of God's unstoppable mercy and strength. This Flag Does Not Come Down! is a story about hope!
