Pledge...

Once again, here on Life with Lynnie (LwL). The music I am honoring our Lord with today, is by Ray Boltzand is entitled, "I Pledge Allegiance to the Lamb". Here is a link so you can listen and/or sing along

Pledge...

The lyrics are below:

I Pledge Allegiance to the Lamb

I have heard how Christians long ago

Were brought before a tyrants throne

They were told that he would spare their lives

If they would renounce the name of Christ

But one by one, they chose to die

The Son of God, they would not deny

Like a great angelic choir sings

I can almost hear their voices ring

I pledge allegiance to the Lamb

With all my strength, with all I am

I will seek to honor His commands

I pledge allegiance to the Lamb

Now, the years have come and the years have gone

And the 'cause of Jesus still goes on

Now, our time has come to count the cost

To reject this world, to embrace the Cross

And one by one let us live our lives

For the One who died to give us life

Till the trumpet sounds on the final day

Let us proudly stand and boldly say

I pledge allegiance to the Lamb

With all my strength, with all I am

I will seek to honor His commands

I pledge allegiance to the Lamb

To the Lamb of God who bore my pain

Who took my place, who wore my shame

I will seek to honor His commands

I pledge allegiance to the Lamb

With this past week being a special time of pledging allegiance to my country Canada, and to my secondary country USA, I found this song to be rather fitting.

After all, not only do we need to pledge allegiance to the country we live in, but we must do so to our Lord, Jesus Christ. For we must honor Him.

Just like our sister-in-the-Lord, Meriam Ibrahim has done, plus others too, anyone who has salvation by trusting in/believing upon our Lord Jesus Christ, who is truly saved, would never deny Him.

Why? Because anyone who chooses to deny Christ, will be denied by our Father in Heaven.

Just as we read in Matthew 10:33, "But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven."

There is no way I would ever deny my Savior, Jesus Christ. Nope. He loved me enough to give up His life for me. And, for you, if you are believing upon Him. Jesus did this, so that we could have everlasting life.

My friend, I pray that one day I'll meet with you. Either here on earth, or in Heaven.

Until next time...
