"Where does" praying for those who spitefully use you", and rightous anger separate? does this make sense?? This is a serious question by the way."

Pollywog, I wonder about that sometimes, myself. Did you ever hear of SERGEANT YORK? He was the greatest hero of World War I.

As a Christian, he first believed God meant he should not go to war.

After much prayerful communion with God, this was the answer he found:

"RENDER UNTO GOD WHAT IS GOD'S, AND UNTO CEASER WHAT IS CEASER'S"

A crack shot with nerves of steel, York went on to capture more Germans single-handedly than any other soldier.

Wish we had more men like him today.

Back....and just saw someone thanking someone else for the "hino's lies" list??

If someone here could please tell me which #post that's in, I'd be grateful.

"RENDER UNTO GOD WHAT IS GOD'S, AND UNTO CEASER WHAT IS CEASER'S"

Thanks for your thoughts.

I personally for myself had to give up the right to anger...I give it to God, give him my rage and hurt and grief, then try to discern what he wants me to do...Satan is so good at turning righteous anger into self-righteous anger and to sin I cannot trust myself.

Lord, hear our prayer,
and let our cry come unto thee,
teach us your will,
show us the way we should go,
belp those who are most in need of your mercy.
In the name of Jeuss, Amen.

I was reading books written by Bodie Thoene. I had to stop in the middle of the book book the Jewish family been sent to the concentration camps. IT IS SOOOO INFURIATING! I know how the story is going to end. Roosevelt knew what was happeing and the US would do nothing. SIX MILLION Jews died and millions of others....

And now, I see this being played out in our country and people are letting it happen just like they did then. Why? ignorance? apathy?

I want to put the book down. All I can do is turn off the tv and stop coming to FreeRepublic. But the story is still going...

STOP!!! THESE ARE REAL PEOPPLE!!!!
