God speed, Delta. Have always enjoyed your words.
I've long realized that Christians are relatively constrained by Jesus' 'turn the cheek' Principle. It REALLY goes against the grain of the best of Humanity, who meet Evil fire...with fire. It is but for their sacrifice - Spirit and Flesh - that the Gospel is even allowed to exist. Likely though, for not much longer...as Evil is loosed, for the purpose of "separating the wheat from the tares".
Those who believe in the 'Second Coming'...know the Prophetic scenario therein. Total, calamitous, barbaric war amongst our kind; initiated in the name of 'peace' and 'love' and 'justice'. With both God and Mother Earth turning on Mankind...to the point that many "chew their tongues and curse God". The "fiery trial that shall try (perfect) your faith..."is the last hurdle. Humanity will learn much in this costly scenario. And the 'Phoenix' that arises will hopefully make all the pain worthwhile. It's all about the 'long game', and the (eternal) Soul. I (currently) believe in an Earthly, Millennial Kingdom; and suspect that High Tech may be our servant to that end.
I may join you soon, as my own survival scenario requires that I work hard to provide for those in my circle. Less time for talk in my future. I'll let conscience and the Good Lord's "hairs on your head are numbered" thing decide that.
See you in the next one, Brother.

American Christians have bought into the idea that weakness is being a good Christian. Further, the blasphemous idea of a pre-trib rapture has infiltrated the Protestant church and many think we will be taken away eventually and spared the worst of what will come. We won’t.
If history were still taught, we might still know about the Black Robed Regiment and that Christians were the leading proponents of our liberty and independence.
