Major destructive terrorist attacks on American soil. We Americans are hurt, confused, angry, shocked, but above all united in our resolve for justice. This is where it becomes tricky for Christians who are to love their enemies. But we must control our anger. We must remember that vengeance belongs to the Lord.
Forgiveness is supposed to accompany repentance.
This is something we tend to forget. We are to love our enemies, pray that they will come to realize the error of their ways, and call them to repentance and amendment of life. Where this is lacking there can be no forgiveness. What can we do. Church agencies and others such as the red cross are collecting funds and there are volunteer opportunities.
