A few words concerning the tragedy in Boston: When such senseless violence occurs in our
society, we must remember the devil "was a murderer from the
beginning." When victims die through
such violence, we remember Jesus shed His blood for them too, and if they died
in the faith they immediately enter heaven, but if they died in unbelief they
will never see paradise. We therefore
should be sure we ourselves are in the true faith of Jesus Christ, by
repentance of sin and faith in His blood.
It is not death to die, when we die in the Lord. Likewise we should pray for the repentance of
the people of Boston (and the nation), for by these tragedies God warns all who
despise His grace, "now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for
now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand:
let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour
of light." Let us pray for all men
everywhere.
