The comparison to Christianity and Islamic jouralism has been a hot topic everywhere. The World News Over covered it last night. The process of change is public awareness. And a constant confrontation of the Truth. No secret the level of journalism has been by large very corrupted. Well covered also on the BBC and self-evident on Fox and CNN etc.
Unfortuante that the motivation is fear in jounalism. There is no simple solution, for most motivated by fear are not living the Scriptures anyway, the contrast of fear and love just isn’t comprehended.
I also agree with Publisher, it is the truth, the Sermon on the Mount is very clear. Confronting evil is a very different concept than doing evil, and contrary to Scripture to resist all evil. Confronting evil is to put the truth up for what it is without resorting to fighting fire with fire, thus promoting peace through Love.
We see it daily throughout Christianity today. Perhaps we are not there so are disconnected to s degree, still the same I feel their pain.
Ignoring evil is to accept it, to accept it is to cooperate with it, to cooperate with it is to promote it. Fighting fire with fire creates a larger fire. Fighting fire with water puts out the fire, opposing opposites.
Christ changed the Silver Rule of Mose’s to the Golden Rule thus moral-ethical minimizing to moral-ethical maximizing. Its the Beatitudes, and consistant NT.
The church correctly understood is a suffering, persecuted Church, a pilgram in exile on Earth. If your only seeing worldy physical beauty my suggestion would be to purchase the CCC or borrow it from the local library. Well documented, well explained often read sola scriptura to our dismay. Yes its a literal Book, 688 pages, 800 with the index.
“if they do these things to Me in the the green wood, what will they do to You in the dry?”
St Paul on the road to Damascus is another stunning reality. Saul, Proud leader, killer of Christians, on his way to persecute more. Then, in flashing moment he was on the ground humbled, in a flashing moment the truth he did not know, could no longer be denied. And he preached it the rest of his life
He no longer rode to Damascus proud, but was lead by others because he could not see, “blind” and in humility. And in his life he came to know exactly what it was to be crucified on the Cross, just as the Lord said he would.
This who cannot understand and refuse to listen are Saul on the way to Damascus. Those who are persecuted for the Lord daily throughout this world, are BLESSED.
Such is the Faithful endurance the distinguishes Gods Holy people.
Peace
Why did it have to be so bad? Why so terrible? Jesus is so rejected- so offended by people, yet he’s so good by any objective standard any honest man from any culture might measure him with- Universally good, that’s Jesus. How can such a good person be the target of such hatred and violence and contempt? Why is he so much hated, this honestly holy person?
But I’m not giving up and will continue to try.) Now on top of the unspeakable rejection expressed in the abuses and cruelties dealt to our Lord that Friday in Jerusalem, 2000 years ago, we have people throwing human waste at the image of Christ? Jesus suffers and endures too much. Its just an enigma- I’ve found myself puzzled and puzzling.
