Pisgah I’m sure that events of the past week have commanded your attention as they have mine. We see the horrors of the massacre in Paris, and then again, what failed to get nearly as much attention were the brutal attacks in Nigeria where Boko Haram slaughtered almost 2,000 people. Boko Haram, an extremist Islamist group operating in four countries, has a history of massacre numbering in the thousands. Both of these murderous rampages were born of evil under the banner of Islam (the Parisian assailants said they were part of al-Qaeda in Yemen). For those of us living in the western world and being predominantly Christian, we fail to possess an inkling of understanding as to why people commit such atrocities. I am certain that psychologists can offer dispassionate explanations, which might explain such behavior, yet understanding the genesis of mass murder and the perceived need to do it, falls short of any reasoning. However, we need only look at the past century (when Nazi Germany and the Japanese empire annihilated groups of innocent people) to see that group extermination occurs in societies around the world. Unfortunately, such actions dot the history of humanity from the earliest of times, and al-Qaeda, Boko Haram, ISIS, and others follow in their evil footsteps currently. We, as people of a loving and caring God, vainly try to comprehend the non-comprehendible – evil. Do we really think that we can make sense out of these actions? The nature of evil is such that it loves to have us try because it is futile and wastes our time and resources. Jesus confronted evil often during His ministry, but He did not dwell upon it as in trying to explain it – He just dealt with it. In His temptation by the devil (Mt. 4:1-11), Jesus rebuffed Satan and did not try to console or give excuses for his behavior. Again, in Mt. 12:33-37, Jesus recognizes the evil in the Pharisees, and does not explain it away, He calls it as He sees it: 35 A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. (NIV) In Luke 8:26-39, Jesus confronts a demon who is possessing a man. Jesus has compassion for the man yet does not try to explain the demon. Jesus just exorcises the demon, and the man is freed. I believe we also need to confront evil and not waste time trying to explain it away. Evil just exists, and we need to accept that (many don’t unfortunately). These folks who perpetrate evil against innocents need to be confronted and stopped. What can we do? First, we pray. We pray for the Holy Spirit to intervene in the lives of those possessed by evil, and that He relieve them of their demons. We also need to pray that these folks and all people everywhere get to know Jesus as Lord and Savior. Second, we need to support efforts of governments to protect the innocents and stop the slaughter. Third, we need to Missive Cont. ask our government to do what it can diplomatically to thwart the killing – contact your representatives. Evil is rampant and pervasive as demonstrated in the extremist Islamic groups. I know that God is crying over their actions, as are we. May the Lord use us as His laborers in this effort to save those in the line of fire and to stop the evil now. It is a problem of the ages, yet this is our problem in our world. Trust in the Lord to work in and through us and our government. Grace and peace, Ted Worship Partners Altar Guild: 8:30—Becky Ernest; 11:00—Kathy Sharp. Bereavement Team: TBA.

Should the family wish to have a meal to include the immediate family in the church Fellowship Hall (provided it is available) one Emergency Meal team will be called. Two Emergency Meal teams will provide a meal to serve up to 50. Our church contact person will be LuAnn Christy. (If not available, Pam Inman will contact the family.) She will call the family when the church is notified of a death. After she is informed as to what the family desires, she will contact the team leader and the team leader will take over. Team leaders and members are asked NOT to contact the family. When the next death occurs, LuAnn will contact the family, offer sympathy and then let them know that the church would be happy to provide a meal for the family. If so, when, where and how many? If they ask about a reception, she will let them know names of caterers they could hire. They do not decorate tables or serve, only provide food for the reception. If a meal is requested, LuAnn will contact the next team leader after she has spoken with the family and is aware of what they need. We want to avoid skipping teams. If you have a special request to serve a family, then you must also serve in the numerical order your team was originally scheduled. Serve joyfully!!
