The revolution is over, and the king has been beheaded. We played our parts well, and in the end our audience seemed to have enjoyed themselves. But, at the end, there was a twist thrown in for Dr. Abernathy. We as a class demanded an optional final. However, after a few moments of argument, the class backed down, and went inside, claiming the cold was a good enough reason to end the stalemate in the teachers favor. In the end, the class backed down.
How often does the behaivor of our class represent our behaivior as Christians? As Christians, we are facing more animosity today in our United States of America than ever before. Yet, as our rights are taken away, as laws are passed that go against our religion, we just back down. Why? Yes, we are supposed to turn the other cheek, but we are also supposed to stand up when the laws go against the Bible that we believe in. How much longer is it going to take before there is nothing left? What will it take for us to stand up, instead of backing down when the going gets rough? Are we willing to do what it takes to protect our faith, or, like the final, when the going gets tough, or our toes get cold, will we simply back down?
