Would you sign this?

"PLEDGE OF ALLEGANCE
I hereby pledge from a clear conscience and in the fear of God, that I absolutely
and entirely renounce and adjure any higher allegiance and fidelity to any
potentate, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or
citizen, including myself; that I will support and seek out every truth to
defend the Word of God and the ordinances of His community against all enemies,
external and internal; that I will bear unto death true faith and allegiance to
the Head and true loyalty to the members of this community; that I will pick up
the spiritual weapons of my warfare on behalf of the community when required;
that I will also perform service when needed; that I will render such service to
the community from a heart motivated by my love for God and His people; that I
will submit my service to the appointed direction of His overseers; and that I
take this obligation freely without any external compulsion, mental reservation
or purpose of evasion; SO HELP ME GOD. In acknowledgment whereof I have hereunto
affixed my signature."Testing Your Confession of Commitment

I am not sure that I would SAY or SIGN this, but this is pretty much what I DID when I made Jesus Lord of my life.

That's a pretty TALL order. If the words, "to the best of my ability" were in there, I may consider it.
