1Timothy 3 No matter where you are today, it is imperative that you know that your conduct reveals that you are a walking and breathing Christian in word and deed. This week marks a change in the West Point mission statement. The leaders have removed “duty, honor, country.” That seems to be the way of the world these days. Remove anything that would cause you to rethink your conduct on and off the battlefield. It also holds true for our conduct in family and our churches. We are to fulfill our duty to Christ to walk worthy of His Name. We are to be dignified and serve well in great boldness in the faith that is in Christ Jesus.

These are our marching orders for the kingdom here on earth so that we would be prepared for the kingdom of heaven.
