Killing Babies-Hatred

Ordained minister, Dr. Dennis Hall, uses the shocking story of a young Israeli family who were taken hostage in the October 7, 2023 attack on Israel launched by the extremist group of Palestinians, Hamas to discuss hate. The father and mother and their two redheaded sons, four years old and nine months old were held captive with the father being released on February 1 and the bodies of the mother and the two children returned recently. Forensic analysis showed that the children had been killed at the hands of their captors. Dr. Hall discusses the destructive nature of hate and points out that the Scripture warns hate not only prevents a person from loving God but also from having eternal life. He uses the story of Cain killing his brother Abel to demonstrate the origin of hate. Dr. Hall points out that the apostle John tells us that Cain murdered his brother because he belonged to the evil one. Dr. Hall notes that Jesus taught to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us. He ends the podcast warning that we must resist being pulled toward demonizing Palestinians. Christians must have a willingness to call out bigotry when we see it while at the same time accepting the fact that those who are guilty of atrocities need to be held responsible.
