* Yes, sing. But let us not just sing it. Live us live it; and, by doing so, be an example to world. *

Wars and rumors wars. Jesus said they must take place.
When sin and evil are present, they must be warred against or at least be restrained. The Holy Spirit restrains evil through us. Angels fight demons to protect us. We fought for our freedoms to make a great nation. Israel has a long history of wars and times of peace, for a purpose.
Are you aware that principalities refers to not only angels but demonic prince's in charge of certain areas of the world, like China, Russia, India, Islamic countries, who keep people away from Christ and in stuck in false religions?
To be subject to demonic powers is detrimental. They steal our peace.
I think even the USA has been run by these powers gradually corrupting our morals, transforming many and causing us to be callous and tolerant - but more than half of us said enough and thanks to the American spirit that formed this nation, it has been revived. It is not a time to be passive and meek. We needed to stand up and say enough and with the power of prayer and spiritual warfare, these unseen powers and their workers suffered a blow recently! We had been meek about this Left Wing movement and about had enough. Evil needs to be put down sometimes with a fight! We had a great country because men faught for our freedoms. Angels are constantly fighting against demonic powers for us. Faith is still strong in this country. So meekness has its place.

"a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
a time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
a time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
a time to seek, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
a time to tear, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
a time to love, and a time to hate;
a time for war, and a time for peace.

Ecc. 3:2-8

When Jesus returns, He will war against our enemies. He will not be meek this time. He will come in God's wrath, to defeat, judge and condemn. Then peace will come for 1000 years.

* I am some kind of fanatic about Christians loving, not killing, their enemies. *

The tragic story of the World War 1 Christmas truce of 1914


Hours and days later, many on both sides who had acted their faith lay dead, slaughtered at the hands of men of their faith.

“How ends the story?
Whose is the glory?
Ask if we dare our comrades out there who sleep.”

”Count all the crosses and count all the tears.
These are the losses and sad souvenirs.“

(La Storia di un Soldato)

Zabelka speech continued.

”Today the world is on the brink of ruin because the church refuses to be the church,

World war existed before "the Church" existed.
The way to end war, is for every heart to be changed from Evil to Love, though Christ., because you can't make peace with Evil men.

Jesus taught his disciples how to respond to, how to overcome, evil.

“Christian teaching is not meant to be applied only when circumstances are easy. Christianity is to be lived out even under the most trying circumstances.” - Leon Morris
