I would be lying if I said yes.
*me too<G> Too often we throw out a "ethic" that isn't practical..
Get this.. *High moral ideals are what we *strive to atain.. that's
why we have the phrase.. "with God's help"
*I pledge to tell the truth.. "with God's help" the best i can...
I cannot pledge anything out of my own human mind... my "word"
in no way is my bond.
The Bible records all kinds of lies that
were told. Some were a blessing some were not. Some saved peoples lives
and others got them a ticket to hell. I am going to follow the example
that Jesus set. Do my very best to do what he has asked me to do and
when I do fail as WE ALL DO I will ask for him to help me with it. That
is the simple Gospel and as long as our Faith is in Jesus and what he had
done for us on the cross then the rest is up to God.
What did Jesus say... you that is without sin cast the first stone.
By the way you need to get the RR manual out the code is different than
what you have written down. Or is this the new parapharased code? GRIN!
*It's a FCFerturnity version..
I tell the truth even if it gets me into trouble. I have found it's
voluteering too much truth that will get you into trouble.
Ever wonder why in a court of law you answer Yes or No and let the lawyer
tell the lies...GRIN!
yup-
Mark Jones

A Ranger is Alert, mentaly..physicaly and spiritualy-
Clean, in body..mind..speech-
Honest, no lies,cheating or stealing-
Couragous, in the face of
danger,criticisum or threats..
*If the Code would have us tell the truth, the whole truth.. and nothing
but the truth..
we may in fact find that our truth.. is of use to our enemies.
Prudently, we choose to withhold the truth.. for a valid reason.
The common cause.. the plan, the goal...may become compromised by a free
flow of truth.
Do we as Royal Rangers tell the whole truth, freely no matter the cost?
