Bible Question: What is the proper Christian response in light of Jesus' words to our terrorist enemies? The prevailing mood of revenge doesn't seem to follow this teaching from God, so when we pledge "One nation under God", which God do we mean? |
Bible Answer: Donkid Jesus was more or less talking about people that oppress you do to religious reasons. He was saying to win them over show them love. Terrorism is a completely different problem. It is done by cowards that kill innocent people to put fear in everyone's lives. The people that were killed on Sept 11 weren't their enemies they were their victims. These vermin need to be eliminated so that their message of terror is stopped. EdB |
