Nearly a generation has gone by since the horrific events of September 11, 2001.
Even most who have been born since then are aware of what happened as thousands of Americans lost their lives as a result of evil in the world. When the towers fell and the jets fell from the sky, many had a wakeup call.
And it would have been nice if that wakeup call lasted, but something happened just this past week that reveals we have a serious problem in our country. When Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA fell because of being shot by an assassin, we were shown just how deep the evil and the division is in our country.
Some mourned in agony, some in disbelief that anyone would do such a horrific thing, but others cheered and jeered.
- Have we lost our humanity?
- Have we lost our dignity?
- Have we lost our rule of law?
Friends, it's not a political problem, it's not a social problem, and it's not an economic problem, though these do exist and continue to grow. But it is a spiritual problem where evil is exalted and truth is spurned. We no longer can dialogue peacefully but have to resort to character assassination as well as physical assassination.
America is at a turning point and the followers of Jesus Christ have some decisions to make. Our response will make a difference in the future of our country.
