REMEMBERING, DOES THIS COME UP?

 

                                                          By Dr. Hoyt W. Allen, Jr.

 

 

            This came by me and I thought that I should pass it on.  It has been slightly edited and a conclusion added.

 

It was 1987.  At a lecture the other day they were playing an old news video of Lt.Col. Oliver North testifying at the Iran-Contra hearings during the Reagan Administration.

 

There was Ollie in front of God and country getting the third degree, but what he said was stunning!

 

He was being drilled by a senator; "Did you not recently spend close to $60,000 for a home security system?"

 

Ollie replied, "Yes, I did, Sir."

 

The senator continued, trying to get a laugh out of the audience, "Isn't that just a little excessive?"

 

"No, sir," continued Ollie.

 

"No? And why not?" the senator asked.

 

"Because the lives of my family and I were threatened, sir."

 

"Threatened? By whom?" the senator questioned.

 

"By a terrorist, sir" Ollie answered.

 

"Terrorist? What terrorist could possibly scare you that much?"

 

"His name is Osama bin Laden, sir" Ollie replied.

 

At this point the senator tried to repeat the name, but couldn't pronounce it, which most people back then probably couldn't. A couple of people laughed at the attempt. Then the senator continued. Why are you so afraid of this man?" the senator asked.

 

"Because, sir, he is the most evil person alive that I know of", Ollie answered.

 

"And what do you recommend we do about him?" asked the senator.

 

"Well, sir, if it was up to me, I would recommend that an assassin team be formed to eliminate him and his men from the face of the earth."

The senator disagreed with this approach, and that was all that was shown of the clip.

 

By the way, that senator was Al Gore

 

Also: Terrorist pilot Mohammad Atta blew up a bus in Israel in 1986. The Israelis captured, tried and imprisoned him. As part of the Oslo agreement with the Palestinians in 1993, Israel had to agree to release so-called "political prisoners."

 

However, the Israelis would not release any with blood on their hands, The American President at the time, Bill Clinton, and his Secretary of State, Warren Christopher, "insisted" that all prisoners be released.

                      

Thus Mohammad Atta was freed and eventually thanked the U.S. by flying an airplane into Tower One of the World Trade Center on 9-11-01. This was reported by many of the American TV networks at the time that the terrorists were first identified. It was censored in the US from all later reports.

 

Seemingly, no one wants war on terrorists or any evil doers,.  However, history reveals that power is all that some, such as Adolph Hitler and other evil doers, understand.  If America is to remain a free nation and lead the world in freedom, may we be united in our efforts, along with the rest of the free world in striving to eliminate evil. 

 

In times of peace and war may we be united in our prayers such as the following on a regular basis.  "Our heavenly father, please give diection to our President and his cabinet and grant them wisdom.  Preside over our troops and keep them in your hands.  Safeguard them as they protect us.  Bless them and their families for the unselfish acts they perform for us in our time of need againist evil. We ask in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen."


   Plainly, don’t get short changed.  Let’s be ready to meet our Maker.  The Bible teaches that to avoid hell and gain heaven - one must:

 

 1) Believe In Jesus As Savior (Acts 16:31)  2) Repent Of Sins  (Acts 17:30)   3) Confess Christ Audibly (Acts 8:37)   4) Be Baptized In  Water (Acts 2:38)   5) Live A  Christian Life (Acts 14:22)   6) Be Active In the Church (2:47)
