“Political
pundits from both sides of the proverbial aisle also praised the pope’s plea.”
I think
this points up a fundamental problem that congress has. When the tyrants speak of “the proverbial
aisle”, they are talking about the aisle between Democrats and Republicans. I think they should add another aisle – one that
separates conservatives from the other two.
Maybe then, when the politicians stand up for what they agree with,
people would see what each group stands for, and the population of the conservative
side would grow.
When I
think of a Warrior, I think of
Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm
against all strategies of the devil. For
we are not fighting
against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the
unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil
spirits in the heavenly places.
Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able
to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still
be standing firm. Stand your ground,
putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so
that you will be fully prepared.
In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil.
Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.
Ephesians 6:10-18
