There are some very beautiful ideas in that speach and  message Foxx.  Thanks!

It is a pity Charlie calls for fighting for freedom. That is the same old pied piper anthem of every freedom, war mongering fighter, the world has ever showcased throughout History that keeps lines of division firmly established, and wars on the increase.

Jesus did not say we should fight. He said he is not of this world and if He had been, His servants would fight for Him to not be delivered to the Jews. 

The good news is that this world will end.

There will be a new heaven and a new earth,  not because anyone fights for this world's freedom but when everyone stops fighting, and every knee shall bow. That is not only good news, it is GREAT news.

I'm with you Arcturus about the war subject.

Proverbs 26:11 As a dog returns to his vomit, so a fool returns to his folly.

Good one River!

King David, accurately describes and nails, the unlovely way of the world!

King David's love songs and hymns to God, most beautifully capture and exhibit the unmistakable influence and evidence of  Love, that God is, melting down the unlovely heart in man, to beget in him, the new creature. 

We love, because, He first loved us. No contest! ~
