[  0] Imagine this happening to you...
[  1]
[  2]
[  3] One Sunday morning during service, a 2,000 member
[  4] congregation
[  5] was surprised to see two men enter, both covered from head
[  6] to toe in black and carrying submachine guns.
[  7]
[  8]
[  9] One of the men proclaimed,
[ 10]
[ 11] "Anyone willing to take a bullet for Christ remain where
[ 12] you
[ 13] are."
[ 14]
[ 15] Immediately, the choir fled...
[ 16]
[ 17] the deacons fled...
[ 18]
[ 19] and most of the congregation fled....
[ 20]
[ 21] Out of the 2,000 there only remained around 20.
[ 22]
[ 23]
[ 24] The man who had spoken took off his hood...
[ 25]
[ 26] He then looked at the preacher and said "Okay Pastor, I got
[ 27] rid
[ 28] of all the hypocrites... Now you may begin your service.
[ 29] Have a
[ 30] nice day!"

I just had to share...

I'll let it go - so long as it doesn't get out of hand. It's certainly food for thought, even if it's not actually true?

I should try that, only with a killing spree at the end.

I'd actually heard this as a true story in Russia, and the armed guys were rebels or something who wanted to make sure that there weren't any spies in the congregation.

I don't have any way to confirm it as true, tho.

Well, I would hope I would have enough guts to do it, but I know I don't so I pray that it won't.

Technically, suicide is a sin isn't it?  So not running away would be tantamount to suicide, and thus a sin.

So... Jesus says - run away!

It's not suicide unless you are the one commiting the assault on you're person, even if by proxy(suicide by cop, physician assistance, ect).  To stay would be to stand for your beliefs in the face of overwhelming, unbeatable odds and thus would be a good thing.
