Evangelical Christians throughout our country brandish stickers that ask the question:
what would Jesus do?
Would Jesus act with love, compassion, and forgiveness in all things he does?
I cannot imagine Jesus saying:
"We will find them and kill them."
And yet, our leader says those very words all the time.
Jesus had enemies. He knew his enemies were going to kill him. And yet, Jesus put his life in the hands of his enemies. Jesus sacrificed his life instead of fighting.
What would Jesus do? Would he start wars? Would he find and kill the terrorists?
Jesus let himself be killed.
And to be honest, I myself do not have the courage. But maybe I can start building it.
