    When principles that run against your deepest convictions begin to win the day, then battle is your calling, and peace has become sin; you must, at the price of dearest peace, lay your convictions bare before friend and enemy, with all the fire of your faith.

    Abraham Kuyper

    Worldviews are at war whether or not you are dressed for battle. If you are not fighting for what you believe in, what someone else believes in will win the day. When the day comes that your dear beliefs are besieged, battle is your obligation. You cannot love something without seeking to protect it at all costs. Love stands strongly in the gap between the danger and its beloved.

    This is the world we live in. To be a pacifist in such a world means you are unwilling to accept the reality around you. Same as that young couple that wanted to prove all people are good and went hitchhiking through the Middle East, they got killed by the Taliban.

    To stand down amid such dangers is abandoning yourself and throwing your beliefs into a raging fire – never to recover them.

    The wicked draw the sword and bend the bow to bring down the poor and needy, to slay those whose ways are upright. But the swords will pierce their own hearts, and their bows will be broken.

    Psalm 37:14-15

    It’s no news that the world is waging war against Christianity, they are trying to slay everything Christianity stands for, for it does not align with their delusions. Christianity is the last stronghold against the evils of this world, and that’s why those in positions of power want to end it. They do it by portraying Christians as madmen, stupid, ignorant and primitive.

    But, DO NOT BE AFRAID, because blessed are the ones who are persecuted, and blessed are the martyrs. Their time will come, Christ will come and not even death can save them from their final judgment. Trust in the Lord, and don’t be scared of anyone.

    When God put a calling on your life He already factored in your stupidity.

    Unknown

    God took everything into account when He created you—your doubts and struggles, and even those moments of uncertainty. Yet, His beautiful plan for your life remains steadfast. Embrace the purpose He has crafted just for you. Trust in the One who designed you uniquely, follow Him with joy, and step confidently into His incredible calling for your life!

    I think my God is very intelligent. My God used my weaknesses to bring me closer to Him.

    Shia LaBeouf

    On this Shia and I are the same. God also used my pain and weakness to bring me closer to him. I am incredibly thankful for it every day. In the video, I watched where Shia says these words he also says that he wishes non-believers the pain and suffering he experienced which may sound hostile at first. Still, he explains that he means that in a way so that they too can meet God and be joyful and find purpose in that suffering they are going through.

    I think this is well said, and although nobody likes suffering, there is no doubt that in those moments we can hear God the loudest.

    A true believer is at war with his sin. A false believer is at peace with it.

    Unknown

    I wrote Unknown here because I couldn’t find the origin of this quote. Some sources are claiming it’s Romans 7:15, but I looked it up and it’s not (at least not a citation). However, Romans 7:15-24 does talk about Paul’s struggle with sin so I think that the origin could be inspired by those verses. To me, it seems someone wanted to summarize these verses and whoever that was, he did a great job.

    It is certainly one of the greatest and simplest descriptions I’ve seen in a while. Those of us who believe often really struggle with our sins and, to some people, it may seem like we are exaggerating them, but we know that we must hold ourselves accountable in order to avoid getting comfortable with it aka. being at peace with it.
