Jeremiah Bailey puts it nicely and with great theological adeptness when he remarks on the Facebook-
“I find the people chanting “USA USA” in DC to be eerily reminiscent of the celebrations on the streets of Palestine after the attack on the twin towers. Justice may require the death of evil men, but it never requires our joy at their passing.”
Quite true.
If Rob Bell is right, OBL has actually gotten rid of that dialysis machine and is prancing on streets of gold whistling ‘love wins’. The saddest bit of death is surely when a man passes to eternity without assurance of the salvation of his soul. Contrary to popular opinion, it is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
