The Making of a Patriot Here is the remarkable journey of faith, grit, clear-thinking, and powerful expression that propelled Mark Robinson from the depths of poverty to a political awakening as a conservative who would ultimately become the first black lieutenant governor of North Carolina. It’s a story filled with lessons and inspiration, as well as a loving evocation of Robinson’s childhood, and his blue-collar, working man’s path through the economic ravages wrought by NAFTA and unthinking globalism. Most of all it is the story of a man speaking for us, for the majority of Americans who have built a country on common sense and sacred individual rights. Robinson entered the once-thriving, blue-collar workplace in North Carolina’s Piedmont—only to run up against the ravages of NAFTA as it decimated American manufacturing. These hard times served as a wake-up call for Robinson who realized that he was a Republican and a conservative at heart—and had always been so. It was a conviction that led to a successful run against all odds for the lieutenant governorship and launched a powerful voice for a return to faith, decency, common sense, and liberty across America. We Are the Majority is Mark Robinson’s story.

Make the Confession I am Healed in Jesus' Name is written as a tool and resource encouraging believers of Christ to tap into their supernatural inheritance which was made possible because of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. Sickness remains in the earth realm because God has not called His children home unto eternal heaven, and the last enemy (death) has not been destroyed. (1st Corinthians 15:26) Christians must know their ancestral heritage, the Creator and architect of the gift of healing, God the Father. The Lord Jesus Christ has called us out of darkness, and has placed us into His marvelous light. In the light of God dwells the fullness of God the Father. Well, if we dwell in the fullness of God, than there is no other choice other than believing that God can, and will heal every sickness and disease that encroaches upon our bodies, according to the faith that we exercise in His word. In the fullness of God dwells excellence which translates into good health, and healing. Make the Confession, I Am Healed. This is not a disclaimer to ignore medical practitioners' prognosis, advice, or the use of legalized prescribed medication, however, this book is intended to encourage believers to apply their faith when medical illnesses and injuries present themselves. Christians should seek medical assistance routinely, plan annual physicals to ward off sicknesses through the education and familiarization of our bodies. Being intimate with the condition of your body defies or deters premature death, and long term illnesses. Be encourage, because we have a promise that God will satisfy us with long life. (Deuteronomy 28) God desires that we live in good health and prosper even as our soul prospers. (3 John 2)
