Regarding 0bama and his cronies ... I think it right and just to pray for their repentance and conversion, however unlikely I might consider it.
Matthew 5:44 But I say to you, Love your enemies: do good to them that hate you: and pray for them that persecute and calumniate you:
To Love is a verb. It means "to know, will and do the good of another". What could be a greater good for those people than for them to publicly abandon their evil ways, embrace Christ, and be saved?
See Luke 15.
God was similar in some of His descriptions of some of His enemies in the Old Testament.
You seemed to be a bit tweaky the post I was responding to.
I wanted to emphasize that OThuga is questionable in terms of his “manhood” as well as other traits and habits.
OTHUGA IS A CRUDE EVIL DOER.
THAT’S JUST A FACT.
Folks need to avoid being mealy mouthed about that fact.
Short of a 180 degree confession, repentance and turn around, he’s a raging destroyer of all that’s good in this land and in the world.
Being mamby pamby about that is not helpful. Pretending that Christians are to be mamby pamby about it is not Christian, to me.
The NEW TESTAMENT declares that we are not even to say “God bless you” to some people.
Jesus came to Earth to die. He was the Lamb of God to be sacrificed. We are God's children and are highly prized by Him, just as you prize your children. Jesus told his followers that they would be persecuted just as He was. He also said to sell their cloak and buy a sword. This sword was for self defense. It was not to go around the world bullying other nations.
What I'm saying is you are mixing up your treatment of people you want to convince that Jesus is "the Way" and those that want to behead you and your family. After we capture and jail Ayres, it would not be inconsistant with visiting him in jail and bring him to the Lord. You are not required by God to allow yourself or your country to be destroyed to follow God.
