we did not reach out to that young man with any kindness, with a welcome to our country, with bringing him into our home, with feeding him, with finding out more about him. I mean, who knows what might have happened if someone would have befriended him. And so, yeah, I love Brother Andrew and his response. When we hear about a terrorist attack,

One, not the first, but one of our first responses should be repentance on behalf of the body of Christ that perhaps no one witnessed to that terrorist who brought that terrible suffering to the world.

Oh, boy. So, yeah, I think that the reason why most Christians don't, the thought of loving a Muslim is very foreign to them. And I think the reason for that primarily is because they don't know any Muslims. We have found that people, Christians who know Muslims are not nearly as afraid to They're certainly not as ignorant about who they are. And so they just view Muslims differently.

They view them as lost, but also made in the image of God. And so, yeah, I think the other thing is that we stereotype. And so because of 9-11 and terrorist attacks here and there and lots of things like that, so many Christians put all Muslims in the same basket and label them all as terrorists.

Oh, no. You're saying we have something in common with the criminals.

Oh, no. You're saying we have something in common with the criminals.

And with the Muslims, too. Same reason. Same thing.

And with the Muslims, too. Same reason. Same thing.

Oh, yeah. Amen, brother. And, you know, one line from a man that we hugely respect that was a professor at Columbia University. um in south carolina the school he said um regarding terrorists you know when when people were just asking him why do they do what they do and and i remember one woman getting so angry

Oh, yeah. Amen, brother. And, you know, one line from a man that we hugely respect that was a professor at Columbia University. um in south carolina the school he said um regarding terrorists you know when when people were just asking him why do they do what they do and and i remember one woman getting so angry

at the speaker, she called them those people, meaning those Muslim terrorists, and why did they do it? She just was shouting him down, and he just looked down, and I saw that he just kind of got emotional, like he was about to cry, and he just softly said, it just goes to show how much they need Jesus. And so when we think about

And so when we think about

Terrorism or anything like that, you know, like Brother Andrews said, repentance is a great response on our part, but also just this whole concept of their lostness that this other man said from Columbia International. He said it just goes to show how much they need Jesus. And if we think how much, you know, hey, we needed Jesus. We were lost.
