Mark 13:13 “You will be hated by all because of My name, but the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.”
The U.S. Air Force Academy admitted to Fox News that they had removed the phrase “so help me God” from three oaths in the official cadet handbook.
Fox News’ Todd Starnes reported that two dozen members of Congress sent a letter to the Academy Superintendent demanding to explain why the phrase was removed from the 2012 edition of the handbook. The phrase was taken out of the Cadet’s Oath of Allegiance, The Oath of Office for Officers and the Oath of Enlistment.
The news comes less than a month after the Air Force Academy announced they were making “so help me God” option in the school’s honor oath after a threat from the anti-Christian Military Religious Freedom Foundation.
“This phrase is a deeply-rooted American tradition – begun by George Washington as the first president of the United States and now stated by many who take an oath of service to our country,” Ron Crews of the Chaplain Alliance for Religious Liberty told Fox. “The removal of this phrase is a disservice to the countless men and women who wish to include this phrase as a solemn reminder that they are pledging their fidelity to God and their country.”
Crews pointed out that law requires the words remain part of the oath.
If we ever forget We are one nation under God, We will be a nation that has gone under.

Psalms 14:1 The fool has said in his heart; There is no God.
As Jim said; Have we gone past stupid???
Lord God almighty have Mercy on Us.
All I wish to say is that this is the end times and Jesus is coming back soon. We were pre-warned in Scripture that things would happen in the end times and to have God and Jesus removed from our society is the most evil thing our country could possible do, for without God through His Son Yeshua, we have no protection and no hope. This is a matter of life or death to us that believe in Christ as Savior and Lord of our lives and live for him daily and obeying His Commandments.
This not surprising because of the previous news media publishing how Christianity and religion is being removed from the military. I am sure all the military academies will follow suit. I am a 22 year Navy Veteran and if I was to contemplate joining today I am sure my decision would be “no”. This is part of the ‘great falling away’ spoken of in the Bible.
Dont ask for Gods assistance when you choose to deny him. The Holy one who created the very air beneath your wings. Woe unto those that call evil good and good evil…..
That will help remove the responsibility to be good!
