Matthew 5:44-45 (KJV): But I say unto you, love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you; that ye may be children of your Father which is in heaven; for he maketh his son to rise on the evil and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust. Sorry bud, but you just can't use the New Testament to justify vengeance and violence toward our enemnies. You'll need to find something else.

Sorry bud, but the bible says otherwise.

Ephesians 6:11-13 --Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil;

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

"You'll need to find something else."

We must forgive them, pray for their redemption and with great regret eliminate them from the face of the earth.

I forgive them. After we have destroyed them and blown them to bits. Forgiveness comes AFTER punishment. The punishement is DEATH.

You, Clinton, his followers seem to think that sin comes without punishment. Wrongo!

I've found my something else.

This is a conflict without battlefields or beachheads, a conflict with opponents who believe they are invisible. Yet, they are mistaken. They will be exposed, and they will discover what others in the past have learned: Those who make war against the United States have chosen their own destruction.

Do you support President Bush??. . .


Please Support President Bush ! ! !

A man may hate cruelty and yet love justice, may be far from thirsting after blood and yet may wash his feet in the blood of the wicked, Ps 58:10. (from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible: New Modern Edition, Electronic Database. Copyright (c) 1991 by Hendrickson Publishers, Inc.)

How about Romans 13:1-4, especially verse 4?
