As I grew up hearing stories of my grandfather and his adventures
in life, I wrote a novel and called it West by Bullwhip. It was
historical fiction but many of the life stories about my
grandfather, James Alburn Knight, later picking up the name Jack,
and his family were true happenings. Bullwhip Justice has many of
the same characters but is total fiction. My publisher for the
first book said I had failed to put romance in the book and needed
to write about a love interest for my main character. So we now
have Bullwhip Justice and a love affair that carries our main
character on highs and lows of several magnitudes. It fulfills the
meaning behind the title. Jack continues his skillful use of the
bullwhip and finds the use helpful in reducing the death rate in
the growing west saving the final justice as the perfect place to
display the diversity of the bullwhip.

power to paint a person's soul - he can alter it."

Six-Principle Baptists, sometimes referred to as the Old or General
Six-Principle Baptists, traces its origin in America to the
ministry of Roger Williams in the 1600's. Its first congregation
gathered in 1652 at Providence, Rhode Island and, within a short
period of time, Six-Principle churches were planted and conferences
arose in Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania. Soon, a
General Six-Principle Baptist Association was formed which was the
first Baptist association of any kind in America. Six-Principle
Baptists have no ecclesiastically binding creed. They hold to the
Bible as the supreme written authority for their faith and practice
with liberty of conscience in matters of interpretation and
worship. This does not mean that they are completely opposed to the
use of creeds, but only that they do not require conformity to the
exact words of any one theological creed for membership. Therefore,
the following Statements of Faith and Principles of the
Six-Principle Baptists beliefs are not used as a binding creed, but
are summary testimonies of faith and of the spirit in which
Six-Principle Baptists interpret the Holy Scriptures and doctrine.
Six-Principle Baptists hold to: One God, the Father, of whom are
all things, and we in him; One Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all
things, and we by him; The Holy Spirit as our Comforter and Guide;
The Bible as the supreme written authority in matters of faith and
practice; Liberty of Conscience in matters of interpretation and
worship. The Six Principles of Hebrews 6:1-2 (Repentance, Faith,
Baptisms, Laying on of hands, Resurrection, and Judgment) as
foundational concepts;

British Library Knight, Richard; 1823. 8 . 993.h.29.
This is a book to dip into as and when your mood or need takes you.
This book is intended to help you to see and understand that by
engaging with your daily experience of the world around you,
through writing and drawing, can act as a pathway to
self-discovery, fresh insights, and a new and more rewarding sense
of who you are, or may become. Drawing directly from nature, like
writing about how life and nature affect us, can establish a
special unity with your internal experience of how you feel, and
that which appears without, thus challenging that view of 'reality'
which sees life in opposites. The development of understanding, by
first simply observing through the direct paths of seeing and
contemplation, can therefore become the source of renewal. In other
words, growth is being aware of the possibility of a deeper and
more meaningful contact with the world outside of us, and with our
inner world of beliefs, feelings, and values. In addition to the
writings and poems, this enchanting book holds thirty-seven
drawings. A book that also contains truth, vitality, and an
awakening presence.
