"Therefore, being a soldier is a holy calling and a sacred vocation. We see that reflected throughout the Bible."

I almost felt sick to my stomach after reading this statement.

As a veteran myself I can't help to remember the Foul language prevalent in the barracks all the time. The gd's, the 4 letter words, a favorites of rednecks left and right. The things we did on weekends on time off etc. The drinking, the pot smoking, and whatever else came down the sewer of military life.

A recruiter could not have done it better to fool young, impressionable, Biblically illiterate "christians".

Interestingly enough the writer does not provide one single Bible verse to support the fantabulous claim. But of course even if he does, it will be so pullout of the context. That he will have to act more like a dentist pullling a bad tooth.

It is true, but we need to walk in the power & authority of our Victor, Lord & Savior, Jesus the Christ! We have His power & authority to tear down strongholds & defeat all the powers of darkness! We have the keys to the kingdom to bind & loose! The gates of hell can not stand against us. They are the defeated ones, NOT US! We need to believe His Word as it's written! Greater is He who is in us, then he who is in the world! Do we really believe it? With childlike faith & perfect obedience we have victory too!
