The Great Debate over the Doctrine of Salvation was originally written as a master's thesis project at Grace Christian University to analyze the tension over the doctrine of salvation. The doctrine of salvation has been one of the most highly contested and prominent subjects of debatable dialogue among intellectuals within the world. For centuries, the debate has taken the world by storm due to the convoluted rhetoric surrounding what constitutes salvation in the eyes of mankind as opposed to the decree of God concerning salvation. As a result, secular rationalization and Christian orthodox stand as polar opposites of thought on the theological and philosophical spectrum as it relates to the doctrine of salvation. Thus, it is the primary objective through this written platform to point to the truth of what salvation entails of from a biblical perspective to aid in settling the dispute about salvation despite the argumentative position of certain intelligentsia.
July the third 1863 it seems, will forever be associated with an event known by almost everyone as "Pickett's Charge" . . . the day more than 12,000 officers and men in Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia charged forward at the Union defenses at Gettysburg. Almost since that day onward, the label given to that assault has focused on the commander of less than half of the troops who made the attack-Major General George Pickett. Pickett whose Division constituted only three of the nine brigades in the afternoon assault has become the namesake of the entire effort. Now, the story is told of the men from North Carolina, Mississippi, Tennessee and Alabama who made that charge.
This comprehensive history tells the story of the men who served in the 55th North Carolina from its formation in 1862 through its dissolution in 1865. Drawing on letters, memoirs, diaries and recollections, it depicts the Civil War through the eyes of the soldiers, showing what it was like to fight for the Confederacy. While providing information on the battles in which the 55th North Carolina took part (including the little known Suffolk campaign), the main focus of the work is the life of the men—the ever-present influence of politics and religion as well as the effects of disease and combat. Appendices provide a breakdown of the companies in the regiment; the regimental roster; a list of men who died of disease; and a record of the men from the 55th who were killed in battle. Contemporary photographs are also included.
