We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Through the centuries, three main viewpoints have emerged from within the church in response to the question of war: 1. Some believe no war is justifiable (a position called pacifism). 2. Others believe Christians must submit to their government and agree to fight in any war it engages in (a viewpoint known as activism). 3. But the majority of Christians hold the view that believers may support or join in defensive wars against evil aggressors – a position known as the just war theory.

约拿的祷告
约拿在鱼腹中祷告耶和华—他的 神,
说:
我遭遇患难求告耶和华,
你就应允我;
从阴间的深处呼求,
你就俯听我的声音。
你将我投下深渊,
就是海的深处;
大水环绕我,
你的波浪洪涛都漫过我身。
我说:我从你眼前虽被驱逐,
我仍要仰望你的圣殿。
诸水环绕我,几乎淹没我;
深渊围住我;
海草缠绕我的头。
我下到山根,
地的门将我永远关住
耶和华—我的 神啊,
你却将我的性命从坑中救出来。
我心在我里面发昏的时候,
我就想念耶和华。
我的祷告进入你的圣殿,
达到你的面前。
那信奉虚无之神的人,
离弃怜爱他们的主;
但我必用感谢的声音献祭与你。
我所许的愿,我必偿还。
救恩出于耶和华。
10 耶和华吩咐鱼,鱼就把约拿吐在旱地上。
