"We are Awake"

July 27th, 2016


The 9 AM mass was ending yesterday (Tuesday 07/26/16) at the Eglise St. Etienne, church in Normandy, France. Two teenage ISIS “soldiers” forced auxiliary priest, Jacques Hamel to kneel. When the 86 year old priest resisted, these Islamic extremist terrorists cut his throat.
 
What a horrific tragedy; yet another one perpetrated by twisted, religious extremists. ISIS claims they are “soldiers.” They are cowards with a satanic cause. They were shot dead by French police. They were spiritually dead long before they stopped breathing.

As Jesus pointed out 2 thousand years ago, in a world of twisted “soldiers” we who follow in the way of LOVE must stay awake. Spiritual indifference and secularized sophistication opens the door for terrorism.
