Subject: Pledge, "under God", WWJD? |
Bible Note: I could not agree more with your statement that we as Christians have shot ourselves on the foot by trying to jam religion down people's throats instead of live out the Christ centered life in front of them. Why did so many people follow Jesus? Was it because he was courting poilticians and crusading to change Israel through the government? NO. They followed him because of his authentic example. If more people would apply the popular WWJD correctly, they would go to the gospels to see exactly how He did do it. I teach public school (If you want to see a battle come here) and I personally have no problem pledging my allegiance to the flag. I do this knowing that in my heart that the allegiance I pledge each morning is but a drop in the bucket compared to the allegiance my heart has to God. Christians need to set the example. |
