Victory

Victory

“Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival.”
                                                 Winston Churchill.
As I look at the world today I see there is a need for a Churchill. Churchill stood up to what was perhaps the most evil person ever in the history of the world, Hitler. The war he was allowed to cause by the politicians of his day who tried to appease him, cost close to sixty million lives.
Today we have a very different kind of world war. It is however a world war. On all fronts. No country can attack it alone, not even the United States with all its power.
There need to be an international alliance of free nations that are willing to take the fight to the enemy in the same way the allies of World war two did.
For me war of any kind doesn’t really bother me. I look at what my mother and father went through. My father was in the army in many conflicts throughout world war two.
My mother was under the bombs of Hitler’s air force. From 1939 to 1945 she watched the bombs fall. She survived and so did the majority of people in Britain. Thousands did die but millions lived.
Bombs whether from an aircraft or delivered by suicide bombers cannot kill the majority of people. Each bomb however should stiffen the resolve of we the free people of the world to destroy those evil people who would attempt to destroy our way of life.
I as a Christian consider myself a man of peace but even Jesus said in the latter days there would be wars.
As a Christian I truly believe that a life turned over to Jesus can change not only that person but if enough lives are changed can change the world.
Unfortunately my Bible also tells me that people will turn away from God and there will be another major war.
I don’t know when it will be I hope we are not in the opening scenes of this war. For if the Bible is to be believed and I believe it should be. The war it talks about will be worse than world war two ushering a great evil into the world.
For me I know God is in charge. Even if it may not seem like it at times. I know ultimately where I will spend eternity. Do you?
Think about it.
