Pledge of Allegiance of the United States

"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."


In 1954, in response to the Communist threat of the times, President Eisenhower encouraged Congress to add the words "under God," creating the 31-word pledge we say today. Today it reads:

"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."

Section 4 of the Flag Code states:

The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag: "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.", should be rendered by standing at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. When not in uniform men should remove any non-religious headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Persons in uniform should remain silent, face the flag, and render the military salute."

May 27



It Is Finished - John 19:30




Because of the Passion of Jesus Christ - It Is Finished,  Because He didn’t plead his case or justify the accusations against Him - It Is Finished, Because He bled & died in great agony - It Is Finished, Because of His nail scarred hands that bought our forgiveness - It Is Finished, Because of the spikes of steel that held him there, until His last breath when He said, It Is Finished!


And, because IT IS FINISHED-

Your sins are forgiven

You are healed of all your diseases

You are redeemed

You are crowned with love & compassion

You are satisfied with good things

Your youth is renewed like the eagle (Psalm 103:1-5)

Death, Hell & The Grave Have Been Defeated! He’s Alive!!  He Has Risen from the dead! IT IS FINISHED!

Thank you Lord for laying your life down for us.   We will never forget the price that you paid, you took the fall for us!  You were the ultimate sacrifice- Holy & Righteous!  It’s your blood that frees us!  I WILL Worship & say- IT IS FINISHED!

We have a reason to celebrate His Resurrection Power - there is life & liberty in Jesus, because IT IS FINISHED!
