Osama Bin Laden is the FBI’s most wanted terrorist. And we immediately agree, and we wonder why we can’t find him. But talk about hunting a needle in a haystack, picture countries…thousands of miles of sand and rock. And he cold be anywhere, in that land of caves.

But wait. As bad as Bin Laden is, and as much as he wants to kill every one of us, he’s a second fiddle…a second banana. He’s only been around during this lifetime, and he’ll die before too long, whether we find him or not. Nature’s like that.

But there is one who is much worse than Bin Laden, who’s been fighting us all down through history, and will continue until God finally decides that it’s time to cut him down. I make it a habit to not even say his name…not wanting to publicize him even that much. But I’ll say it here…satan is one to fear much more than that terrorist. Because he and his helpers are everywhere, using every way they can think of, to harm us with a fate even worse than death. Because he not only wants to lie to us and harm us in this life, but he wants us for eternity, in hell, where he is fated to end up himself, along with all those he tricks into refusing to accept Jesus Christ.

What if your government was spending millions to fight HIM, instead of doing everything it can to get God out of our day-to-day lives, with what they call “separation of church and state.!” It’s no wonder that we’re in the shape we’re in. We’re asking for it.

I’m as anxious as you, that Bin Laden be caught and made to pay for his murderous life, but that one I call the “evil one” is much more to be feared. I suggest that yo give your life to Christ, so that after this brief life, you’ll move to the place we call Heaven…a place that although John the Revelator was shown some of it, he had not words that could describe its wonder. Think about it!

Thorntonism:  To "forgive and forget" is to be able, when the incident comes to mind, to pass over it without negative feelings...like seeing an old car you once owned.
