Thank you my brother-in-Christ SSG William Jones for posting the Billy Graham Daily Devotional for September 28 - Do not compromise.
Steadfast in the LORD by the grace of God.
"Horace Pitkin, the son of a wealthy merchant, was converted and went to China as a missionary. He wrote to his friends in America, saying, “It will be but a short time till we know definitely whether we can serve Him better above or here.” Shortly afterward, a mob stormed the gate of the compound where Pitkin defended the women and children. He was beheaded and his head was offered at the shrine of a heathen god, while his body was thrown into a pit with the bodies of nine Chinese Christians.
Sherwood Eddy, writing about him, said, “Pitkin won more men by his death than he ever could have won by his life.” Christ needs people today who are made of martyr stuff! Dare to take a strong, uncompromising stand for Him.'

I pray that of you and those you love shall be blessed by the LORD with sufficient patience , steadfastness with grace to stand fast on the TRUTH and never compromise with evil or the evil one.

Amen.

It's not a subject up for any question...I do however have an extremely curious side of me that researches and dive deep into history, politics, and war with religion that influenced them.
It's also a pet peeve of mine to discuss my religion and practices when someone is holding up my traditions, values, character, etc without them looking into the mirror first. I said this comment more than a few times in this past month defending a friend from his "Overbearing Bible Thumping parents") basically that you have the Devil within you or your going to Hell because you don't live your life according to their odd church...
I stood up in the living room when they where tearing each other apart and looked each one dead in the eyes

"He who hath no sin; let him cast the first stone!"

Also I made a smart ass remark stating
"And who made you judge, jury, and God to pass judgment on anyone? I don't see any of y'all's names on churches nearby...look in the mirror before you pass judgement upon anyone else."

Good afternoon SSG Michael Noll. Excellent post. Thank you for sharing this Brother Michael. Amen!
