Swearing on the Bible
“Please place your hand on the Bible. Do you swear that you will tell the truth, and nothing but the truth …”
Recently I was listening to these words being said to a U.S. Senator. I thought to myself, “In this age, when any reference to God / religion is being lobbied and legislated against, I’m surprised such a practice is still in the courts”.

I Desire Mercy
