A Sober Evening

The entire community went to see "United 93" last night. We then had a community meeting afterwards to discuss the effect of the film. I stayed home to babysit, but I plan to see the film today. I'll write more about what I feel after that.

The range of emotions and reaction to the movie was broad in our group. The overall response, though, was that America has fogotten what happened. Could it even be said that we have somehow fallen in love with Islam? That's a bold statement, I know. Undoubtedly me saying that will ruffle some feathers out there. Rees Howells said this during WWII, "Mussolini is a man. But Hitler can tell you the day the spirit entered him." Mr. Howells and his band of 100 intercessors knew what they were battling. They understood that while the soldiers were resisting the advance of tanks and infantry, they were resisting the advance of dark spiritual forces bent on world domination. He encouraged his prayer force that they were no less important than the man on the front holding a rifle. It was their stand that determined the outcome of The Battle of Britain. September 11th is a graphic example of how the American Church lost air supremacy. No, not the superiority of our Air Force. I'm talking about the air supremacy of the heavens. There are dark, spiritual forces bent on world domination again. Who will take a stand to resist them?

The Cause is contemplating blasting out an endorsement to see this film. It obviously contains extremely tense thematic material and language. The Lord's name is taken in vain, and it has an overall R rating. We're praying about this.
