Memorial Day Weekend | This Nation Remembers to Live Under God
In Pastor Buegler’s opening story the punchline was: “Whoever gets the son….gets everything”. He then capitalized the word SON so that it also refers to Jesus Christ. Discuss the similarities and the differences in the sacrifices of the men and women who lost their lives in our nation’s conflicts with the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus against sin, death and the devil.
Consider the little 2 words in our Pledge of Allegiance that were added in 1954: UNDER GOD. How does Romans 13:1 give powerful meaning to those words?
Before the Lord gave us the 10 commandments in Exodus 20, He told us to REMEMBER who He was and REMEMBER what He has done for us…..therefore, “have no other gods before me”. Discuss how it would be good for us EVERY day to REMEMBER those 2 things: Who our God is…..and what He has done for us.
The sermon warned us to never FORGET the sacrifices of those who paid the ultimate price. That “freedom is NOT free”. Discuss what distractions enter our lives that cause us to forget the price that has been paid. Discuss the best way for Christians to observe Memorial Day.
