I know he was as terrorist.
I know that he was one of the people behind the 9/11 bombings.
He was behind thousands of people dying.
My family was affected too. A cousin (on the Backous side) worked on the side of the Pentagon where the plane hit. He went out to smoke minutes before the plane hit.
.
He had to be stopped. That’s the American in me.
But I do not rejoice in anyone’s life being taken. That’s the Christian in me.
I am thankful that none of the Americans involved were killed while fulfilling their mission.
My prayer is that those who shared the same philosophy as Bin Laden will see that there is a price to pay. It will not be the paradise they have been taught about.
Killing Bin Laden or any terrorist leader will NOT stop terrorism. A change of heart is the only way.
How many of the people in the US who are dancing in the streets are bold enough to witness to someone who they know is violently opposed to the Gospel?
We’ll need the whole armor of God to accomplish that mission.
