When Peter is talking to the churches in 2 Peter 2 about Persecution, he brings up one interesting name: Lot. We don’t often remember Lot for his goodness, but Peter says that his “righteous soul was vexed” by the immorality that was around him daily. Daniel was in the same boat. Exiled in Babylon after the destruction of Judah, Daniel lived decades in a land that was pagan in every sense of the word: religiously, culturally, emotionally, and physically. Many of us know how those two men felt. How do we survive in a pagan world that is hostile to all things Christ? The same way they did.

CloseA little more than a month ago, Hamas -- an Islamic extremist group with the stated goal of destroying Israel -- launched a campaign to invade and conquer Israel. Geopolitics aside, Christians have naturally had a number of different questions in response to this crisis: Should the U.S. get involved? Do we have an obligation to defend the Jews? Is Jesus coming again? As with any question that has to do with our spiritual life, we have an obligation to check with the Scriptures, rather than our own emotion.
