The Duality of a Warrior
The Book of Revelation uniquely portrays Jesus as both the Lion and the Lamb. This duality emphasizes that Jesus's power and authority are rooted in His sacrificial love and willingness to die to save us all.
We here at TSG, try to emulate the nature of God the best we can.
We can be FIERCE! When it comes to defending our people and the innocent from those who wish to murder and destroy. We can also be meek. We love deeply and are more than willing to sacrifice ourselves for our people and the innocent!
Defenders of Innocence
Have you ever wondered why U.S. Military Personnel always gravitate to children in war zones? I believe it is because of our Judeo/Christian values. I have yet to meet an American military person that would not rush to save a child in danger. They would without a second thought, protect a child even if it meant forfeiting their own life for that child. Not just their own child, but every child. It is something that combat vets are still willing to do today.
SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY
Veterans and active duty personnel represent the truest form of Christian values.
When you swore an oath after joining the military, you had a burning desire to serve others and you also desired in your heart of hearts, to be a part of something bigger than yourself with a willingness to sacrifice everything, including your own life. Hooah!
"For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." - Mark 10:45
This verse highlights Jesus's example of servanthood and sacrifice, emphasizing that true greatness lies in serving others, not in being served. It also points to the core Christian belief that Jesus's death was a ransom, a payment for the freedom of everyone. He sure does sound like a Warrior to me.
AMEN!
