I'm of the opinion that many Christians are in deep denial about the reality of there being 'real' Evil in this world. Evil that cannot be reasoned with; is reprobate, incorrigible, determined, un-appeasable, violent, murderous, and unrelenting. I find this denial shocking in that the Bible clearly shows that in the end this battle is all about Good vs. Evil. This is a very real and present danger to the leaders and people of Israel. They know the truth and are not in any denial about it! It's harsh, yes! However, it is Real and a danger to those in Israel. This is not my first rodeo! Combat brings me no joy! But, God has His holy warriors who risk their lives so others can have the luxury to live in denial! Israeli's have no such luxury!
