BIBLES BANNED ON FLIGHTS-SO NOT TO OFFEND!
http://www.sermonaudio.com/new_details.asp?ID=20904
In the above link the article describes a British airline that has banned Bibles and other item that are associated with Christendom, on flights going to Saudi Arabia so as not offend Muslims.
This really rings my bell! When was the last time you heard of a Muslim being concern about offending a Christian.
I remember when we "Bible Fundamentalist" used to be honored to refer to ourselves a "militant fundamentalist". Militant in the sense that we are in a spiritual battle against the forces of darkness. Militant in the way we were on the offensive in attacking the gates of hell and rescuing soul for Christ that were in danger of hell fire. Militant in the way we stood against the devil and his forces in the way they were manifested in social evils.
Yes, we had those on the lunatic fringe that have embarrassed us, but for the most part what had a strong voice in our culture. Even if many did not agree with us, they respected us for our resolve and willingness to stand for what we believed. Even if it meant being misunderstood and misinterpreted and often misquoted.
Now here we are, most are afraid to us the term fundamentalist let alone militant. We are so concerned about offending or being politically incorrect. While all the while evil abounds with it"s "in your face" arrogance.
Now we have "Islamic militant fundamentalist" flying airliners into our financial and governmental and military nerve centers. We have militant Sodomites that have come out of the closet and are now trying to shove us into the closet of silence. DAH! DOUBLE, DAH, EVEN! When are we going to get it?
It is time for us in the LORD'S army to once again be on the offensive.
2Co 10:3, 4, 5; "For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ"; Jesus told his disciples; Joh 15:18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. again; 1Jo 3:13 "Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you." As Biblical Christians we are going to be shot at either way, whether we shut-up or stand-up. So I say, In Jesus Name, let make a good targets and stand honorably as we "fight the good fight of Faith" and for the Truth as it is in Jesus Christ Jesus. I have a feeling that the Muslims, while still disagreeing with and many even hating us, will at least have more respect for us.
Well, that's the way it looks from here,
