Are you aware of what is happening in the World these days? No, I don’t mean the fear inspiring events that we continually hear about in the media and the conservative Christian blogosphere, rather I’m referring to something entirely different and much better. I’m talking about the greatest foreign policy directive that has ever been conceived!
Yes, the current events that I am talking about are much more worthy of our time and attention than the ones we are continually hearing about. About a year ago, as the world was focused on what has been called ‘the Arab Spring’, there was much conversation happening in the evangelical world about these events. It was interesting to see the contrasting opinions develop. Some were predicting an ‘Arab Winter’ instead of an Arab Spring as they correctly envisioned Islamic radical groups rising to power. Some in the evangelical world were on the opposite side of the spectrum as they saw the developments as a new day of freedom and democracy that would give rise to the spread of Christendom in the Middle East.
Unfortunately, I’m afraid both groups are blind to what is really going on in the Middle East, and the rest of the world. About a year ago, I wrote an article that addressed this. Let me challenge you to revisit this article to get up to speed with this all important current event. Here is the link to the article:
The Riots In The Middle East, The Panic Of The Masses, And The Steadiness Of God’s Eternal Purpose.


Jamal, I love this line: “the greatest foreign policy directive that has ever been conceived!” Your linked article is well worth the read. Thank you, my brother!
