I don't know exactly what it is that you are trying to accomplish with your pacifism teachings, but that thought process will destroy western civilization, and what will replace it is right out of the pits of hell hand delivered by Allah himself.

That's really uncharitable.

Im curious. For those who think people are terrible for not welcoming these refugees because its not "loving". Do you show love towards the citizens who face increased crime? Where is your love towards women when you welcome the refugees who tend to attack women?

That was my first association, too. They may not even have been meant that way, but the linked guardian-article, which reports that refugees suffered abuse and humiliation due to those wristbands, shows that they fostered a similar mindset to that of my Nazi-grandfather.

So I’m glad authorities got wise and abandoned them. We should really learn from history.

That is not a fair comparison, at all. Nor, is an intelligent one.   

The reason for the Star of David was to mark who was a Jew for the purpose of eliminating them from society.   A Star of David marked you for death and eventual extermination, in addition to other forms of persecution.   It was the result of a mindset that sought to dehumanize the Jews.

The red wristband is to identify refugees, to keep track of them, not to persecute or humiliate them.    Refugees are not immigrants.   It is a temporary status and given the immense numbers of refugees coming from the Muslim world, and given the threat of ISIS infiltration, there needs to be way to keep track of them.    While no one things that refugees should be persecuted, they should not be allowed to roam freely across the country. 

Refugees are only refugees until the conditions in their country of origin changes and they can go home.   In order to provide for them properly, they need to be identified and that means we need a means of identification for them.   They need to stay in the camps where they are safe and where they can be cared for until they can be sent back.

Exactly....   That's the short sidedness of the liberal attempt to apply "love"  to the refugee crisis.  It is what Europe is facing now.    The Liberal approach to "love"  in this kind of situation forces you to choose between the attacker and the victim.    It even requires a person to ignore the threat that many of the refugees who are terrorizing their host countries, pose to the citizenry.

It's like the classic dilemma for a pacifist when it comes to defending one's family.   They claim we can't respond violently the attacker because that would not be "loving your enemy."   Yet they cannot really provide a satisfying response to who you should love more, your family members who are being attacked or the attacker?  

It shows what happens when verses of the Bible are cherry picked to suit a particular agenda without regard to context.   Pacifism isn't "love."   It is moral indifference to evil.   It is even worse than hate.   Pacifism enables and emboldens evil and leaves innocent people defenseless.   Pacifism is an evil ideology.

This issue in Europe is showing the failure of liberal "multiculturalism."  It's a complete joke.

Christ left us here having shown us that the way of God is love, asking us to follow in His footsteps rather than clinging to our worldly ideas of power, mammon, selfishness, hate and envy. We are to be the light of the world and the salt of the world by emulating Christ’s love for us in our love of neighbor, and clearly that includes love for refugees.

So be perfect,as your heavenly Father is perfect.” (Mt. 5:48)

People like you only serve to pervert what Jesus meant.   All you seem to have to offer is Liberal slop.

Yes.  Pacifism is an anti-Christian teaching.  You can love your enemy while keeping a constant eye on him.

Shiloh, you put it into words!  I've been trying to figure out why pacifism is so appalling to me and there it is.  Good post.

Another hollow comment , tossing in a word from the Bible to "have the appearance of righteousness"  using it as a false accusation.

 

Kinda like the kiss of Judas, isn't it?

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
