My spirit is troubled this evening over the Russia issue. They will never truly be our "friend", but they need not be our enemy. Having been a student of history for much of my life, I understand the Slavic mindset. They will never have an American form of government and nor do their people desire one. Semi-authoritarian, nationalist democracy is what they prefer. The Bolshevik Revolution was a war waged by internationalists against ethnic Russians. The USSR was designed to keep Russian nationalism in check. Mother Russia is free now and will not be subjugated again. We don't have to be anyone's doormat. But we must understand who is behind the desire for America to go to war with Russia. America's founders warned us against "entangling alliances". The former Warsaw Pact nations should establish their own block to counter both the Muslim EU and Russia. America needs to stay out of it. Let us pray for peace. _________________ "It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves UPCI |
