Jesus died on the cross to save us,
He is my Lord and King and Comforter.
This is my belief, no one can dissuade me
Otherwise.
Keep your beliefs,
And I’ll keep mine.
God bless you all.

The author's comments:
I simply cannot stand when people put down my religion or try to force their on me. Those who came to America in the 1600s came to find religious freedom. They were tired of people telling them what to believe. The people who do this today are only helping our country to move backwards.
