Peace Will Come

Hatred is the most destructive emotion on earth. Hatred is intended to damage its object but in actuality, it imposes its worst effect on those who harbor it.

For example, the question has been asked, "Why have so many displaced victims of war by-pass Turkey to trek all the way to Europe for asylum? An obvious and undeniable answer is, of course, because many terrorists have infiltrated the asylum-seekers and have gone to Europe with evil intent. The bombings in Paris confirm this. 

But what of the thousands of others who are genuinely fleeing the same evil entity that would wreak its havoc on France? Why did they by-pass Turkey? Perhaps, perhaps, it's because they who are fleeing from islamic indifference to the plight of the down-trodden, the war-torn, the grief-stricken in their own lands are hopeful of finding a better opportunity for blessed life in a land that was once a font of Christianity.

Perhaps a hope burns within their bosom to live free...free of war, free of grief, free of hatred. Perhaps.

And if they are, may they find it. They will know they have found what they seek when they, as Mrs. Mier stated so long ago, "Love their children more than they hate us."

They will know they have found freedom from the evil compulsion to destroy those who are not like them when they lend themselves to the building of bridges between people of other faiths and other cultures rather than giving their lives to destroy them.

As one wise observer stated, "In islam, allah demands that believers' sons be sacrificed in death to avert the pangs of hell, while in Christianity, Jehovah God sacrificed Jesus so everyone who receives Him as Savior may avert the pangs of hell and receive the eternal blessings of Heaven."

 

Peace will come when Muslims love their children more than they hate Israel...
