I have followed the Russia:Ukraine news all along. I once upon a time wanted to visit The Hermitage Art Museum in Russia. And I researched the assassination of the Russian Czar in history to try to understand why that happened from a political viewpoint. This morning after reading some of the news I realized I cannot remain silent publicly on this issue.
Any bona-fide christian church anywhere, and Patriarch,Priest, believer in The Living Lord Jesus cannot condone the premeditated murders of innocent human beings because it is a violation of God's commandment: "thou shalt not kill" in Exodus 20:13, King James Holy Bible. It is also a violation of Jesus's words who said he came to fulfil the law [of God] not to destroy it. And Jesus who said "even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish." Be assured that GOD Himself does not condone the premeditated murders of innocents as He warns against it throughout the Holy Bible.
I am asking as a christian that all Christian people around the world pray that Putin's heart will be turned away from killing and destruction since he has allowed Press photos of him inside a Russian Orthodox Church lighting candles and talking to the Patriarch. Putin is giving all christians everywhere a bad name by his planned attacks on Ukraine that have killed almost 900 civilians there and 17,000 Russian troops. How much bloodshed is enough? I say that much blood on anyone's hands is a risk of damnation to hell unless the planners/executors of that killing plan repents before God and asks forgiveness.
Putin, repent and be baptised by immersion to wash away your sins as the example that was set by Jesus in the New Testament. Withdraw your troops from Ukraine. Let your citizens live and live in peace. Let Ukraine rebuild and help them. Avoid Armageddon as fortold in the book of Revelations.
I am a born again, immersed in the river baptized believer in The Living Lord Jesus since a very young age. I am well aware that countries around the world are spying on my communications and telephones. My TV changed its channels automatically yesterday and suddenly starting telling the news from China, shocking me a bit. I am not ashamed of the gospel. I write this under the auspices of the First Amendment's freedom of religion and Press clause of the U S Constitution as a U S citizen born in the state of Georgia. And I write it also as a "child of God" [though I am a grown, white, unmarried [twice-divorced] woman, with no authority over me higher than GOD HIMSELF].
I write this to make a difference--to change the outcome of history through the power of GOD's commandment and God's authority.
