PASSING ON THE BATON, NO. 13 - TEACH YOUR FAMILIES TO CALL EVIL WHAT IT IS

Isaiah 5:20, 21 says, "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!"

Men, how screwed up and dumbed down have we become when even our government will not man up and call sinful, evil, violence what it is--terrorism! Have we become so soft that we can no longer plainly call Islamic slayings and beheadings of innocent people evil?

The reasoning behind all this spineless, political culturalism that our universities and politicians are dishing out to us is that we must not use language that would offend anyone. They would have us call it "work place violence" or "street violence" instead of "lone wolf terrorism." You must never link this violent terrorism to Islam. It just may offend Islamics. But the truth of the matter is that Islam does give birth to acts of violence. If that isn't bad enough, it also gives birth to evil beheadings and slayings of innocent people.

Men are hung by their ankles on assembly chains high enough so that when their throats are slashed their blood can be collected, bottled, and used to initiate new recruits. Wives and daughters of these innocent victims are raped and sold into slavery. This can be all seen on live U-tube. Men, our agnostic, atheistic professors and their disciples in politics want us to believe that there is a good reason for all this behavior. We just need to be more tolerant and understanding.

Men, the time has come when we must resist such dumbing down of our sensibilities towards such barbaric acts of terrorism and call it for what it is. Islam has thousands of schools called "madrassa" where they teach this evil.

If we men do not teach our children to hate all evil, the world today will quickly teach them to make excuses for it.

Yes, of course we as Christians must love all people, but we must never love their sin or try to make excuses for it.
We must be tolerant of others, but never tolerant of evil.
We must never be afraid to call murder what it is.
We must never be afraid to call abortion what it is.
We must never be afraid to call homosexuality what the Bible says it is.
We must never be afraid to call all moral perversion what it really is--sin which needs to be judged and repented of.

Be encouraged.
