God's Way or the World's Way
We have ridiculed the absolute truth of Your Word and called it Pluralism.
We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery
We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare
We have killed our unborn and called it choice
We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable
We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self-esteem
We have abused power and called it politics
We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition
We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of statement
We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.

IXOYE
The earliest followers of Jesus were persecuted and forced to worship in hidden locations. Often these believers would scratch the secret symbol of a fish in the ground to help them identify other Christians.
Not only was a fish a common food in the day, often used and referenced by Jesus during His ministry, but the letters which make up the Greek word for "fish" (IXOYE) also spell out a secret message about our Lord. I-Jesus, X-Christ, O-God's, Y-Son, E-Savior.
The fish symbol trancends differences in cultures and denominations. Throughout generations the fish symbol continues to identify the true followers of Jesus Christ.
