You did your duty and helped make the world a safer place. You sacrificed and others made the ultimate sacrifice so that some of us could power lift and squat at the gym, looking at our bulging muscles in the mirror and coloring our hair to keep it looking jet black.

I salute you!
Thank you Sir. You know I'd do all it again when the time comes. I appreciate you and I appreciate your sons service too!

The first Gentile ever saved was a military man.

The Lord has been good to all of us and we'll never deserve any of His Kindness.

If I were a betting man, my money would be on you would defend your wife and daughters even if it cost your life. But you know to admit that would undermine your pacifism when it comes to our nation and its military fighting evil men in the world seeking to destroy, rape, kill, molest, behead, burn alive, enslave, and blow up any and all infidels (thats you and your family).

The point is this, you cannot save your life. If your child was hit by a car while you were in a rural area with no way to contact help. You would do the bare minimum as far as medical if you had no medical skill. You would be calling on God praying like you never prayed before. No one gets a prayer life when the storm comes the prayer life has to be stored up way before the day of tribulation. Faith, and trust has to be built way before they put the bullet right behind your ear. Faith and trust has to be there way before your car gets run off the road by the tractor trailer while your baby is sleeping soundly in the back seat. There are people more than I would care to remember who were murdered and couldn't do anything about it. Where is your selfdefense in those situations?

My favorite banjo player "Stringbean" didn't trust banks so he kept all his money in his home. Two crackheads who were brothers tried to hold up Stringbean and his wife, Stringbean tried to fight off attackers but was murdered. While his wife tried to run to the neighbor's for help only to be caught and while she begged for her life she was murdered in cold blood.

DB people have tried to fight off the attackers some win and some lose.
The Middle East use to be Christian it was the birthplace of the religion.
They fought the Ottomans, but they were defeated. DB all we can do is pray for God's mercy, trust in God, because as the world around you collapses because of the overspreading corruption and move towards atheistic secularism, you will find that you have no other defense but God. Have you been working on that faith and trust in Jesus name?

I bet my last dollar that if Assad, Saddam, and Gaddaffi are still in power, the region is way more stable.

Do you speak in tongues while you are killing the enemy, or after you kill the enemy?

How does the Holy Ghost work through a New Testament saint when Jesus in Matthew 5 told His followers to resist not evil, but to take the backhand across the face, to allow yourself to be sued, to carry a forced burden way further than you were ordered to carry it. Love your enemies, how do we love our enemies by running a bayonet through their midsection?
Jdg_3:10 And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he judged Israel, and went out to war: and the LORD delivered Chushanrishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Chushanrishathaim.

Jdg_14:19 And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and slew thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave change of garments unto them which expounded the riddle. And his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house.

Psa 144:1 A Psalm of David. Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:
Psa 144:2 My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.

How many 'Spirits of the LORD' are there?

Heb 11:32 And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:
Heb 11:33 Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
Heb 11:34 Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.

Perhaps we need to re-examine some of what we think when we think of sweet baby Jesus?

So is this taking place when the United States military goes to war?
Funny, my father never told me he was filled with the Holy Ghost when he fought in Europe during WWII. My wife's father in all his speeches, talks, in his books concerning WWII/Korean war, appearances on Network news, and the History channel never mentioned one time being filled with the Holy Ghost while he was fighting. What we need to examine is the whole idea of just war by an unjust people.

No sweet baby Jesus in sight, but no Holy Ghost filled troops fighting with a faith towards God while they fight in the name of Wall Street.
