Pledges

-
Mike and I were talking flags the other day and it reminded me of the pledges we did every morning in middle school. I didn't realize it but Mike had actually never heard of the Christian flag and he didn't know there were pledges to the Christian flag or the Bible. I tried to remember the words but I got myself all confused so I thought I better look them up and give myself a refresher course.
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

I pledge allegiance to the Christian Flag and to the Savior for whose Kingdom it stands. One Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again with life and liberty to all who believe.
I pledge allegiance to the Bible, God's Holy Word, I will make it a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path and will hide its words in my heart that I might not sin against God.

First, the allegiance to the Bible, Next the allegiance to the Body of Christ, now the allegiance to our country, are all being trashed by those who cannot stand an absolute standard. Let us pray for our country, our churches, and our own convictions to come back to the Solid Foundation.!!
