Text of the page (random words):
the rasburry patch december 2012 the rasburry patch random pickings from a lutheran pastor devoted to the life of christ in the body of christ for the life of the world 16 december 2012 it s not the gun it s the sinner behind the gun two more gun related tragedies have recently taken place a shooting at the clackamas town center near portland oregon and most recently the horrific barbaric shooting of innocent children and teachers at sandy hook elementary school in newtown connecticut i refuse to glorify the monstrous gunmen by mentioning their names here they don t need such fame for their heinous deeds our hearts ache and our eyes weep with those who have lost loved ones those who have been injured those who have had to witness the carnage and those whose lives have been changed forever lord have mercy lord jesus come soon and lighten the darkness of our hearts by your gracious visitation collect for advent 3 so many people are looking for answers to the questions of why or where was god or how could god let something like this happen however let s always remember that it was not god who brought evil into the world it was us human beings when we turned away from god and let s also remember that our true comfort and peace come in this glorious good news god is still with us in his eternal mercy he has not abandoned his fallen world nor his fallen creatures that s what the christmas message is all about god came down to us in his son jesus christ the word made flesh to rescue us from the darkness of our sinful nature of the fallen world and of evil itself and when folks start blaming the guns and when politicians and media types start clamoring for stricter gun laws as well as lurching toward confiscating guns from those who legally and responsibly own and use them let s remember one simple fact the guns do not pull their own triggers it takes fallen sinful human beings to do that it s not the gun that s the problem in these horrific shooting events it s the sinful human being behind the gun just in case that point is a bit difficult to swallow consider this little reported detail from the recent shooting near portland oregon it would appear that another sinner and another gun were involved and for a beneficial and salutary end but we won t hear that from the national media and we certainly won t hear that this sinner and his gun actually may have reduced the carnage that the gunman who did make the news and generated the hype and received his 15 minutes of fame could have inflicted the gun is not the problem the sinner behind the gun is posted by randy asburry at 7 49 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels citizenship culture newer posts older posts home subscribe to posts atom subscribe subscribe in a reader about me randy asburry st louis missouri united states view my complete profile sacred meditations issues etc lutheran public radio steadfast lutherans wmlt followers blog archive 2022 1 january 1 2020 46 november 1 october 3 september 3 august 5 july 3 june 5 may 6 april 8 march 7 february 2 january 3 2019 25 december 9 november 4 october 2 july 1 march 7 february 2 2018 14 december 6 april 1 march 4 january 3 2017 42 october 3 september 4 august 2 july 3 june 2 may 4 april 7 march 10 february 3 january 4 2016 31 december 6 november 1 june 3 may 6 april 1 march 10 february 4 2015 25 october 1 june 6 may 5 april 5 march 4 february 4 2014 29 december 1 november 1 september 1 may 3 april 5 march 8 february 6 january 4 2013 29 december 9 november 7 october 9 august 1 april 1 february 2 2012 67 december 1 it s not the gun it s the sinner behind the gun september 3 august 2 july 1 june 5 may 5 april 5 march 16 february 20 january 9 2011 131 december 16 november 9 october 7 september 14 august 8 july 13 june 18 may 5 april 17 march 14 february 8 january 2 2010 85 december 1 november 5 october 11 september 8 august 7 july 12 june 12 may 8 april 16 march 5 2009 53 march 4 february 39 january 10 2008 345 december 20 november 7 october 9 september 14 august 15 july 18 june 34 may 43 april 94 march 51 february 18 january 22 2007 98 december 28 november 15 october 28 september 27 picture window theme powered by blogger
