    Then sit, do not stand or sing that song, if that is how it makes you feel. To others it is a symbol of Christ and His finished work. You are at liberty brother. There are a few songs I do not agree with myself. I just do not sing them.
    "In the old rugged Cross, stain'd with blood so divine. A wondrous beauty I see. For the dear Lamb of God, left his Glory above. To pardon and sanctify me. So I'll cherish the old rugged Cross. . . ."

    The cross is understood to mean the death and resurrection of Christ.

    I believe I am going to start flying The Christian flag over an upside down U.S. flag.

    I understand what it is intended to be.

    Still don't like it.

    Some people are like that. Miss the beauty of the forest because they don't like one tree in it.

    I don't think that is so.

    Do you like every song in the Hymnal and every song that is labeled Christian by others? If not, I guess you miss the beauty of the forest.

    No, but I don't sit down and protest them either.
