Subject: So what does this passage mean? |
Bible Note: OK, Hank, thanks for your response. I just have mixed feelings concerning our missionaries who could die for sharing the gospel where it has been made imperatively clear (under sentence of death) that Christ is not wanted there. I'm outraged that our government can do nothing about it. We can obviously pray for them. But it seems hypocritical to pray, 'God, keep them safe and spare their lives', then support sending them or others right back into the lion's den. |
