We are not to make deals with the devil or his workers, stand on truth and stand on faith. God will sustain!!!! Noone has to participate, it's free choice, but this city needs more of God and none of people trying to chase him out of everywhere!! This country was founded on Christ! "In God we trust" is on every bill, bet the freedom from religion foundation still uses that money!!!! LOL.... God bless Memphis and God bless the United States of America!!!!
