To the editor:
As we deal with the horrors of the shootings over this past weekend, the result of which will certainly be the demand to rid ourselves of firearms, I would like to focus on the real truth, which is, the prince of this world is Satan (Job 1:7, 1 Peter 5:8, Rev 12:9). We are dealing with the agents of Satan and the people under his influence. He will not be restrained until Jesus returns (Rev 19:11-20:3).
In the meanwhile, it is important for each of us individually to realize the only way out of eternal death is through Jesus (John 3:16-18). Satan’s objective is to get your focus off Jesus. Get your life in Christ. Do not focus on this world (1 John 2:15-17).
Get into Jesus through daily prayer, meditation, and reading of the Bible (1 John 5:18-21). This world is passing away, and it is going to go violently (Matt 24:1-31). Do not go with it.
