CORRIE TEN BOOM-- HOW I OVERCAME HATE

 


Where has the ability to discern right from wrong gone?  It was missing in Holland when the Nazi's took over in 1940.  Jews and those who helped the Jews were being shipped off to concentration camps. Now, here in the United States, some students and outside agitators have not been able to discern that their actions are anti-semitic.  They have been blinded by their own hate or greed.  

Once again the Judeo/Christian values are being ignored.  Some say it is their right to attack the "oppressors." They have no desire to debate in a civilized manner.  Their minds and hearts have been taken over by rage.  It's mob rule.  Israel has the right to defend itself.  Those opposed to Israel have the right to have civilized debates but some choose to use shouting, threats, name calling, and violence. 

Corrie Ten Boom, Holocaust survivor, tells how she was able to forgive the man who had betrayed her family in the above video. May all learn from her and strive for peace. 

Ephesians 4:31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. 32 Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.
