If you have heard me speak you know it is a burden that burns deep that we are headed for troubled times like we have never seen in our world. It is a deep concern our approach to the Islamic advancement in our times, both home and abroad. I have stated over and over, ‘when I lay my head in that coffin I want to know that I have done all that I could to preserve our freedom of religion.’ It is all Kingdom focused.
The burning of the Quran in Florida is very troubling to me. While I have stated that we must be fight the fight, it has always been my contention that our battle is to be fought with love. I have attached an article by Lee Grady, who works with Charisma and has been hired as our publisher in the IPHC. He does a masterful job of stating what M25 stands for. He states, Jesus never carried protest signs or staged book-burnings. If that had been His strategy, His disciples would have marched through Jerusalem with placards that said: “PROSTITUTION IS OF THE DEVIL,” “UNFAIR TAXATION IS OF THE DEVIL” or “CAESAR WORSHIP IS OF THE DEVIL.” All those sins are truly devilish, but you can’t change people’s behavior by condemning their actions.
