Re: Not of this world
First off the passage I draws from for my aliens and strangers context is 1 Peter 2:10-12
As far as the peace and persecution we were told it would be tough
34 "Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.
35 For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
36 And a person's enemies will be those of his own household. Matt:10 Esv
As of 2009 31 of the 41 wars involve Islam. Can you cite some instances of Christians declaring jihad and posting beheading videos .........?.........Please.......... you can stop with all the violent Christian rhetoric. And the whole " I only look at the words of Jesus, is sad as well. The fact is this, with the Muslim brotherhood coming to power in Egypt Christians are being killed in record numbers. Christians are being persecuted all over the World, and you do not see them strapping bombs to themselves.
Now off to bomb some atheists.... I mean take my daughter to a birthday party
