Am I raising up Christian terrorists or another Hitler Youth Movement? NO!!
The Boy in the Camouflage cloths was Acting for a illustrated message not
Worshiping.
This is probably the most frustrating and exasperating part of this film for me. This
is the conclusion people are coming to when they see the trailer, and I have to say
that if I was not a believer in Christ and I saw nothing but the trailer, I would
probably come away with the same impression.
But any born again Christian should be able to read between the lines and know
there is absolutely no truth to this at all, and I hope other discerning individuals will
as well.
There are many scriptures in the Bible that use terminology like "warfare,"
"weapons," "armor" and so on. When born again Christians speak of warfare they
mean "spiritual" warfare. This is a war of ideologies and spiritual issues, and not a
physical war that is fought with guns and bombs. Christians do believe they are in a
cultural war for the lives and souls of people worldwide, and particularly for the
minds and hearts of our children and youth.
There's a clip in the trailer that shows me with my arms raised up and I'm shouting,
"This means war!" That came during a prayer time at the end of one of our services
where I spoke on the battle we wage against sin and temptation we fight on a daily
basis. We had spoken about the challenges of keeping our minds and our hearts
pure in a world that throws all kinds of mental and visual trash at us all the time. But
out of context it could be taken to mean anything!
The unfortunate thing is that right now the secular world has no other grid to go by
than what is happening in the war on terror, and the terrorists themselves sending
their young out to blow themselves up and take as many other people with them as
they can at the same time. But that has nothing to do with the way Christians think
of spiritual warfare. The weapons Christians use is prayer, the Word of God [Bible],
and so on.
Here are a few of some much used scriptures among Christians used in their
sermons and insider language that might you understand:
2 Corinthians 10:4
The weapons of our warfare are not carnal [or natural] but are mighty through God
to the pulling down of strongholds
1 Timothy 6:12
Fight the good fight of faith.
Ephesians 6:11-18
v.11 Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles
[attacks] of the devil.
V.12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood [people are not our enemies] but
against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this
world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
V.13 Therefore put on the whole armor of God that you will be able to stand in the
evil day, and having done all to stand, stand.
V.14 Stand therefore, having your loins covered with truth, and having on the
breastplate of righteousness
V.15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace
V.16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith you will be able to quench the
fiery darts of the enemy
V.17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit, which is the word
of God [Bible]
V.18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching
thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.
1 Timothy 1:18
This I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the promises previously made
concerning you that by them you may wage a good warfare.
1 Peter 2:11
Beloved, I beg you as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts which war
against the soul.
