In Noah Webster?s 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language, he describes patriotism as ?Love of one?s country; the passion which aims to serve one?s country, either in defending it from invasion, or protecting its rights and maintaining its laws and institutions in vigor and purity. Patriotism is the characteristic of a good citizen, the noblest passion that animates a man in the character of a citizen.?
Contrast that to the Merriam-Webster?s Collegiate Dictionary, Eleventh Edition of 2004. ?Patriotism,? it says. ?Noun. Love for or devotion to one?s country.?
Quite a difference, no? I would personally go much more with that first definition?but I wouldn?t have even known about the difference if not for God?s Promises for the American Patriot, which I recently received from Thomas Nelson as part of their book blogging program.
God?s Promises for the American Patriot claims to be a ?special secret map? that will guide you to hidden treasure about America?s rich Christian history, and it doesn?t fall very short of the mark. Each small article on subjects ranging from ?The Goal of Government,? ?A Godly Legacy,? ?The Key to Survival? and various historical events and people is followed by a page of 3-4 passages of Scripture. The passages are ones of hope and promise to the nation that follows the Lord and admonitions to pray for our leaders and serve our fellowman.
I actually really enjoyed this little book?it?s more of a flip-through read than a sit-down-and-devour read, but there were some interesting bits of history that I hadn?t heard before (for example, did you know that according to legend, John Hancock signed his name big and bold and clear on the Declaration of Independence so that King George could read it without his spectacles?) as well as some of the old stories that I?ve long loved.
My only issue with this book is that occasionally the ?promises? are taken out of context, and/or verses that really only apply to Israel as God?s chosen nation are applied to America. But I was actually surprised at how few times this happened?I was expecting far more.
This is a really neat little book, perfect as a gift for that veteran in your family or your active-duty friend or neighbor, or even just the history geek inside yourself.
