Who We Are
Dual Nature
The Lamb and the Lion
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 meek, and willing to sacrifice ourselves for our people and the innocent!
We can also be, FIERCE! when it comes to defending our people and the innocent from those who wish to murder and destroy.
We are, Warriors!
Older and Wiser
1 Peter 5:55
Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.”
I not going to lie. The day my wife and kid made me put on my old uniform and head gear, well it almost made me cry. Not because it didn't fit but because it- RUTHLESSLY didn't fit.
When I compared the two different Me's in the photos to the right, I did cry a little! I am obviously kidding, I cried for days! LOL!
That being said, I am 55 yrs old, so of course my body don't look 19 yrs old. I am still pretty though.
As embarrassing as my "then and now" pix may be, I don't mind sharing them because its a visual reminder for us all, that we may be getting older, but it doesn't mean we have lost our purpose. It doesn't mean that we cant share our many years of wisdom with the younger generations. The truth is, they are very lost. It is very evident from the state of our country today. They need wise council from the older generation to show them the way back to Jesus. Remember, its not about you, its about Him. Amen!
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 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 their own child, but every child. It is something combat vets are still willing to do today! Something to think about, wouldn't you agree?
Service to our Country
Veterans and active duty personnel. You may not know this, but you 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!
In that moment, you became Christ like.
Mark 10:45 states: "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." 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. AMEN!
