Sacrificing for the Faith vs. Sacrificing the Faith
Being lambs of Christ doesn't mean offering your throat to the knife. A great article. While not seeking conflict with anyone, and even trying to seek common ground with everyone, a Christian should and in fact must stand up for Christian identity and call out evil when it appears. To pretend there is no movement within a part of Islam that burns churches, kills Christians, Jews, Hindus, and other non-Muslims, would be like ignoring the Nazis within German society in the 1930s and 40s or the Pol Pot maniacs within Cambodia. Taking off your cross is like Peter denying Christ that night, and utterly unworthy of a Christian prelate more than anyone. What comes next, therapy, compassion, and understanding of the mass murderers who scream "Allahu Akbar" as they kill so joyously? Sorry, forgiveness is for the pickpocket, or maybe the drunk driver, the starving thief, and so on. For those who embrace the happy slaughter of strangers I have nothing but contempt and the drive to end any chance of their ever hurting another human being. --Del
