A Public Service Announcement



                                       A Public Service Announcement
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked, Ephesians 6:16.

• Beware of Dog…
• Beware of Explosives…
• Beware of Christian!

           
               A couple of writings ago I said we should Show Our ID as a Christian. We should do this because we are a witness to those around us. However, there is another reason why we should show our ID. As a matter of fact, it should be boldly printed across our chest as a Public Service Announcement:
                                             BEWARE—Christian!!!!!
Christians are not operating alone. There’s more to us than one can see with their natural eyes. Heaven’s got our back, Exodus 14:14. So, to the unsuspecting public, Watch Out!

 I don’t mean to sound threatening, but people should know the danger they put themselves in when they attack God’s people. God said, Touch not My anointed, and do My prophets no harm, Psalm 105:15.
                A few years ago I was brutally attacked. Nevertheless, my faith surfaced when I read Psalms 140, 141, 142, and 143.  After reading those Psalms, I knew I was not alone and that it wasn’t my battle. God was my Strength and it was His battle. He was going to deal with the situation. It’s not a hard stretch to pity someone who will attack a Christian!
       
   People shouldn’t be deceived and think they’ll only be
 punished if they go after a Christian with the “big” stuff like murder  
and burglary. We can murder with slander and gossip. We can burglarize someone by bearing false witness. We can stab someone in their back with our tongue; leaving them bleeding as we walk away tracking their blood on the bottom of our shoes. Well… I think you get the point.
                This has been a Public Service Announcement!!!
