Correct! God is in control. However, it is the duty of Christian parents and husbands to protect their families. We don’t live by the sword, but swords can be very useful to preventing violence to us and our families.

Communist revolutions are very ugly and usually result in the death of Christians and Patriots (40 million Russians, 100 million Chinese). They can be halted though. Seeing what was happening in Soviet Union, God sent us Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. Will we listen to his warning…?

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? After all, you knew ahead of time that those bluecaps were out at night for no good purpose. And you could be sure ahead of time that you’d be cracking the skull of a cutthroat.
