...but rejoices with the truth.
As even a child knows, violence is not a legitimate way to handle disagreement, but sadly, those of us who are Christians have our own extremists and terrorists. It has become physically dangerous, not just emotionally stressful, in many parts of our own country, to disagree with extremists, who prefer to believe lies and argue to dominate and control, rather than to learn and grow with others. Online abuse can mutate into offline actions, as we have seen on multiple occasions during our current crisis. Bad actors know this is a way to do US harm. It has gone so far that there are parents who do not care if they harm their own children, as well as leaders, tasked with the service of their country, who politicize or even legitimize violence. A beloved, free and grateful people will rebuke such cynical evil.
