That's not fair John! You forced me to reveal that I'm not a pacifist! At least not a total pacifist. I do believe in the right of self defense and yes, I think Todd Beamer and the others probably did the right thing.You stinker!Darn!

not if you are French, Canadian, or French-canadian. :t2:

Boot camp is taught at a young age in France. By the time they are 2 years old they can already say "I surrender"

A large number of Canadian troops are from Quebec. In Afghanistan they had trouble finding interpreters but in Haiti they will fit right in.

ok, here's a question for all the doomsayers. why are ya'll so certain that 9/11 was God's judgement against america, and that our military defense is not God's judgement on other nations?

Well i never said that the US military was not Gods judgement on other nations. God can use any force to bring his wrath to the nations.

is your hatred of america so strong that you would assume that God is bringing His judgement against us through terrorist attacks from people so evil that they relish the thought of torturing, maiming, and mass murdering not only those of other countries, but those of their own as well?

Hatred of America? i do not hate Americans :t2: As for the powers that rule America i am indifferent to them. They will do what they will do until all nations come under the rule of The Messiah Jesus.

As for God using Evil people to carry out His wrath let me ask you a Question.

Did God use the Evil Nazi Germany to bring His wrath against the Stalinist USSR and wipe out 40 million Russians in the process? Or Did God use the Evil Communist USSR to smash Nazi Germany to bring to an end its tyranny? Or did God smash the two evil rocks against one another as judgement against both?

All Praise The Ancient Of Days

And few Americans realize the role that Canada played in WWII. Believe it or not Canada had the third largest navy in the world at that time (saw it on the history channel) and played a huge role in keeping the supply lines to Britain open across the Atlantic. Canadian troops were the first to break enemy lines, capture their targets, and hold their positions in the allied invasion of Normandy. The second front with Russia did alot to weaken the Germans and spread their defenses out to make them more vulnerable. The defeat of the Germans was an allied effort and by no means did America single handedly conquer the Germans. America was also extremely reluctant to even get into the war. Canada entered the war long before America and with an almost entirely volunteer force. So there! :!!!:

    • 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

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • 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.
