Bible Question:
Have you forgiven those who caused the loss of life on Tuesday? Explain. Should the church or nation let the family members of the suspected terrorists know -we have forgiven the their family members -we hold no grudge against them -God loves them and so do we -we are available to meet their needs -we are praying for them ... Explain. Sin are forgiven and there will be consequences, like David's sin with Bathsheba (1Sa 12:13-14). Steve |
Bible Answer: Steve- God may love them, but I don't. I love the families of those who are mourning their loss. I love the firemen and policemen who are risking their lives for any victims that may still be alive, even though the odds are getting slimmer and slimmer. I will pray for them that they see before too late that Jesus is Lord and will accept Him as such, but I cannot love them. Until those that are murderers and worse are not covered by the blood of Jesus, God sees their sins, and, I don't believe, is too pleased with them, either. He may love them and mourn over them, but He will not tolerate sin, which is what Jesus' sacrifice was about. I want to see the ones who did this executed so they will not do this to any others. I want the ones who were behind the ones who did this executed so they can not sponsor any more of this terrorism. If old women could join the armed forces, I would volunteer, because I have nothing to lose and everything to gain, and in the process, could leave this world in a better situation. No scripture, no quotes, but the history of these terrorists shows there is no remorse and, they know just what they are doing. Debbie |
