I was saved march 2009, in my preacher’s office, two weeks later, I was called to be a preacher at a youth rally at our church. I am currently going to the Gospel Light Baptist Bible institute. A Man At 14 Years of Age He’d fast talked his way into the Marines at 14, fooling the recruiters with his muscled physique… Assigned to drive a truck in Hawaii, he had grown frustrated; he wanted to fight. he stowed away on a transport out of Honolulu, surviving on food passed along by sympathetic leathernecks on board. He landed on D-Day without a rifle. He grabbed one off the beach and fought his way inland. Now, on D+ 1, Jack and three comrades were crawling through a trench when eight Japanese sprang in front of them. Jack shot one of them through the head. Then his rifle jammed. As he struggled with it a grenade landed at his feet. He yelled a warning to the others, and rammed the grenade in the soft ash. Immediately, another rolled in. Jack Lucas, 17, fell on both grenades. “Luke you’re gonna die,” He remembered thinking… aboard the hospital ship Samaritan, the doctors scarcely would believe it. “Maybe he was too young and too tough to die,” one said. He endured 21 reconstructive operations, and became the nation’s youngest Medal of Honor winner—and the only high school freshman to receive it. Talk about convicting, we can’t even fight the spiritual battle, but they are willing to give their lives for a physical battle!
