Once again, I don't for a moment believe that a single soldier or civilian death will occur from this event.
Wow, I guess you're all for gambling with some poor christian lives in places like Indonesia. Should we really gamble with lives based on your baseless belief? How nice. Let's do a quick risk-reward analysis here. Risk: Christians in places like Indonesia undergo persecution most likely some of them to the point of death; Reward: some Floridian evangelicals get to burn books because they have a right to protest. Isn't that really nice and thoughtful of some comfy Florida Christians?
Those who were going to make IEDs next week were going to make them anyway, regardless of whether this koran burning goes ahead or not.
How on earth did you come across this bit of information?
Let's apply your reasoning elsewhere and see how ridiculous it is: if I don't give this drunk bum some money for alcohol he will get it from somewhere so I might as well give it to him myself. Pretty ridiculous isn't it?
And I still would like you to give a good reason for burning the books. Does it somehow promote the gospel? Is it going to pursuade people? Is this behavior something that is truly representative of how the body of Christ should act? What ever happened to christians being peaceful and living out the fruits of the Spirit?
Rom 12:18 If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all people
Heb
12:14 Pursue peace with everyone, and holiness, for without it no one will see the Lord.
James
3:13 Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct he should show his works done in the gentleness that wisdom brings.
3:14 But if you have bitter jealousy and selfishness in your hearts, do not boast and tell lies against the truth.
3:15 Such wisdom does not come from above but is earthly, natural, demonic.
3:16 For where there is jealousy and selfishness, there is disorder and every evil practice.
3:17 But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, accommodating, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial, and not hypocritical.
3:18 And the fruit that consists of righteousness is planted in peace among those who make peace
I don't see how anyone can honestly say that Florida church is living out those principles.
