Re: One nation under God......Maybe?
First of all I will state that I think that "in God we trust" should stay in our pledge. Ok, now that that is over...My thoughts on this:<br />God is in my heart and nothing can take that away from me. Weather it is in the pledge or not, does not deminish that fact one bit. While I would like it to stay in the pledge I believe some Christians have forgotten what is realy important. The good news of Christ, the work that continues to this day through Christ the list could go on forever. A symbol or words of any kind does not negate any of that. We can be so consumed with words or symbols that we can forget what our true calling through Christ is. God is with us in our hearts, mind and soul, not in the words that humanity comes up with, albeit good words that I agree with. I guess what I am trying to say is that I would love to keep that in our pledge because I believe it is true. But, I will also pick the right hill to die on. I will shine the light of God though my actions, prayers, fellowship, the Bible and love of all of mankind as I would love myself and love God with all my mind, heart and soul(God's greatest commandment Mark 12:30-31). This is just my belief and I am not singling out anyone, just stating my opinons on the original post. <br />God bless.....
