The World Again Taught a Hard Lesson on Islam and Liberalism

Well over 100 are dead in Paris, France this evening as Islamic terrorists again decided to show the world the "cost of crossing the devoted." In coordinated attacks across various locations in Paris, Muslim gunmen armed with explosives and AK-47s slaughtered defenseless Paris civilians.

Just as was the case when the same such Islamic gunmen attacked the French satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo, tragically, Parisians again get to see what results when a largely liberal, unarmed populace blindly embraces Islam.

The world is full of false religions--Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and so on--and deceptive ideologies--communism, socialism, secularism, liberalism, and the like. However, and again, speaking of the world at large, there's nothing today more dangerous to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness than liberalism and Islam.

Ultimately, the battle here will not be won by soldiers or politicians, with guns or legislation. Of course, such things can be valuable, and should not be ignored, but as the Apostle Paul instructs us, "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realm."

May the love, truth, power, mercy, and grace, of the Lord Jesus Christ be revealed in this wicked tragedy.
