Since the fall, such sins have been common to all men everywhere, and the works of sinful flesh are evident: terrorists attacks at the hands of committed and conservative Muslims; the murderous crusades led by cross-draped and body-armored Biblically confused Catholics in the name of Christ; indiscriminate mass murders by fame-seeking, face-masked American high school students; discriminatory holocausts fueled by the psychotic minds of nationally appointed madmen; and government-supported, socially accepted infanticide in the once-safe wombs of inconvenienced women and their self-centered, irresponsible "men".
Although the horrific events of Sept 11th, 2001, sent shock waves throughout the world, our sovereign God was neither shocked nor surprised, and though the world has changed and will continue to change, the one and only God of the Bible has not changed but is forever changing His world by building His kingdom through the advance of the Gospel by His sovereign hand and for His own glory.
