You stated it perfectly. I think, for me, it was not even the usual cadre of evil online that reacted exactly how all of us knew they would react. No, for me it was when Representative Lauren Boebert called for a prayer for Charlie in the House and the other side literally shouted her down. These are not people with differing ideas on the same team. This is something different. We all know it.
I think most of us have continued hoping that we would somehow win the argument with debate and better ideas. But Charlie's assassination and that moment in the House should show us that we are not playing by the same rules. They are not interested in civil discourse.
Those who shouted down Rep Boebert were not the ignorant foot soldiers of social media. They are literally the leaders of the opposition. Their heartless opposition to praying for a someone who was just politically assassinated is the physical face of a spiritual evil most Christians do not want to admit exists. I feel we are, indeed, at a turning point.
Agreed, very well written. I've been learning more about who he was from the news since yesterday, his faith and humility are exemplary to us as fellow servants of God - And he gave the glory and credit to God for the results of his hard work too. Truly a tragic loss, thank you for your guidance and encouragement during this difficult time.
I’ve been scrolling X to listen to and read what people are saying, and I have been thankful to see how many are turning to God, away from complacency and a party that promotes violence as a response to speech they dislike. Many have decided to return to church, to God, to conservative values. I hope and pray they follow through and find Jesus. Stephen’s martyrdom was not in vain. Paul’s life was affected and eventually transformed. The church was scattered to the further reaches of the world, where God had intended them to go all along. May Charlie’s (life and) death have a profoundly powerful impact for the spread of God’s reign here and around the world.
I agree completely with your sentiment. I believe this case is different. I believe an example must be set forth against the devils democrats and liberal judges who have encouraged this kind of thing. I think a public execution is in order. There are too many senseless murders happening to be mere coincidence.

Very well said…
Thank you Jack, I love the work that you do.
