Roll tide. Evil is never winning. I recommend you read Frank Peretti This present darkness, as well as Jesus Christ casting out demons.
Peretti book was a fiction work that drew me to understand how Christ could remain silent in torture and ask for forgives from the romans who held the hammer.
On the contrary.. this is our finest hour. Is Saul of Tarsus can be saved, then go on to great works, all of these evil souls can. If we return to the fields, sowing and reaping.
John 4:35-37 (KJV) [35] Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. [36] And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. [37] And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
This is a very good time to reach out to unsaved acquaintances with the gospel of life. One need only share what scriptures he knowS and trust in their power to pierce the callousness of sin.
I agree with you. But in the face of this evil how should folks respond when they have families to support? Getting shot is not supporting your family.
Roll Tide:)
Thank you for the recommendation. My post was made during a moment of extreme frustration, bitterness and anger.
I wasn’t around during the 1960’s, so I’m simply not used to this kind of violence.
IMHO, this situation is much, much, worse than the sixties. The other side won’t stop until they overthrow the government.
I’m extremely angry and frustrated. But I’m also scared and depressed.
I will check out that book.
