Joining the military isn’t like a normal job; you can’t just quit anytime you want. You have to sign a contract agreeing to enlist for so many years. When you sign up for the military you owe them a certain number of years of service; however many you signed the contract for. You can’t just back out, since a written promise or contract was made. During an enlistment, you have to obey your superiors, or else you’ll be punished.
Jesus said not to owe anybody anything, but once you enlist, you owe them so many years of service. Jesus said not to make promises, but in order to enlist you have to make a promise to serve for a certain number of years. Paul said: “do not become slaves of men”, but joining requires you to become a slave. No, you won’t have to pick cotton, or be whipped for disobeying. But you do have to do what you’re told, and if you disobey you will be punished.
I am thankful for the benefits that I reap because there is a U.S. military, but to join is wrong.
You are wrong, as I enlisted in the Marine Corp. in 1976. I learned alot, that you would not learn on the outside. In the OT some where, it is allowed to protect your country. Thats what I did, protect my country. I am happy I served. If They ever need me again, I would go. Course I would be in the handicapped division.

Yes I am willing to die for Jesus. I will go while praising his name. What about those who has a family? Since these people are so merciless or heartless, do you think they will spare your wife or even your kids if they also refuse to be converted? Will one be willing to see their love ones being subjected to that? Can a true worshipper really endure that to the end? My wife is dead, my kids are grown adults. Yes my kids would miss me but, they know who I would be with, Jesus Christ. Yes a true worshipper really can, endure that to the bitter end.

Will one Christian, a true worshipper of our Lord Jesus Christ, succumb to these fears and worship their religion? Are you willing to die for Jesus Christ?
Yes I am willing to die for Jesus. I will go while praising his name.
