Mt 5:43-44 tells us to love our enemies, we are also told to forgive. Both are difficult to do at times. Should be an interesting evening. Our men’s Bible study will discuss this tonight (5/16).

God protects his people according to the righteousness of God, Jesus Christ, in the lives of men. Authorities in the old testament wanted to wipe out the israelites in the same manner ther are people to do the same to christians. if we look at this perspective then we should be thankful because God is in controll as he promise to us, Church of Christ in San Felipe San Felipe, Tantangan, South Cotabato, Philippines I believe God’s hand is in this victory over false ideology. this is a victory of Christian as a whole not only in the united states.

We all could have been just as evil but because of the grace god we do not commit mass murder. God said in his word that he have no pleasure in the death of the ungodly. I see it as more as you reap what you sow. I only rejoice that evil lost again not that a soul may be gone to hell forever n ever. God loves all and Jesus died for all. Let us not be like the world but do what god said do and that is to love our enemies. I don’t rejoice because someone was killed no matter how evil they were.

I was happy to see him finally located, but sad to see the life of another human being, no matter how evil, abruptly ended. I was also concerned about retaliation. Muslims, especially radical Muslims, never forget. Some will do everything possible to avenge the death of bin Laden, so our nation must be on high alert. We Christians must be on alert, too, praying that this not happen and that, somehow, Muslims might be won to Christ. That I believe to be the best solution for changing terrorists' mentality.

Even the worst of sinners can come to Jesus. The only question is, would you be willing to forgive and accept a mass murderer ... like Bin Laden? Before you answer, remember the Apostle Paul was a similar mass murder. Paul said: "I persecuted the followers of this Way to death" (Acts 22:4). I do not rejoice in Bin Laden's death. But I rejoice that his reign of terror is over. No person is beyond redemption. Even the worst of sinners can come to Jesus.

When he fought the kings and natives of Canaan, he did not so much rejoice in their death as rejoice in the care the Lord gave him. Psalms is filled with thanksgiving to God for His protection over David. Let us rejoice that God is in control. God gets the praise, not President Obama, not the military although it consist of many, many brave men. God kept them safe — they talk about the Seals being lucky that no Navy Seal was killed. They were not lucky; God was watching over them. Always give God the glory and rejoice not in a sinner's death but in the protection God gives His own.

How innocent they were (those killed) is another question. America is guilty of more evil than any evil man since time began because of the MILLIONS of unborn babies they murder each year. I don't know of one evil man that has the murder record of humans that we (America) do. God does not delight in the death of the wicked.
