We know that you can't have the freedoms of 1776 without the willingness to fight and defend it. And so in that cause we live the motto of our great In God we trust. The willingness to make sacrifices on behalf of one's country is born in one thing. A deep and abiding belief in God's love for us and his promise of eternal life. The passage says, for whoever would save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake and the Gospel's will, save it, the warrior is willing to lay down his life for his unit, his country and his creator.
