HERE IS ANOTHER BRAVE MAN WHO WENT WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD, TO
MAKE A DIFFERENCE AS A CHRISTIAN: Ever heard of the "Machine Gun Preacher," Sam Childers? You
should check him out, if you want to know about a former hell-raising biker who
was saved sovereignly from his life of crime and violence, addiction and sin and now
isn't ashamed of soldiering for Jesus Christ his Savior, but who
takes up the machinegun to defend helpless orphans in East Africa against the savage, merciless
militias that prey upon them to make them child soldiers who will
kill for them. He saw the need for someone on the ground to do this work,
and he and his buddies are doing it! Orphanages are established to care
for the children, who otherwise would be either killed or trained as
killers. Care to get involved for the sake of the children, at least with your support, financial, and through prayers?
We don't recommend that just anyone who wants to
use a gun and live Rambo-style in the wild African bush go take up the sword as this man does--but
if he is called to defend the orphanages under assault by armed gangs and militias in Africa who are seeking to exploit innocent children--well, can you condemn him? I can't! He is doing what the African governments are refusing or unable to do (often they are so corrupt, they could not care less
about the children being murdered, kidnapped, raped and sexually exploited or inducted into
militias and made killing machines). More power to Machine Gun Preacher! He is
a modern Gideon in defense of the innocent children in Africa.
