More DescriptionThis story dares to challenge the limitations the church establishment places on the commandment of Jesus Christ to love our enemies. Ranging from gang war to nuclear Jihad, this fast paced book is set in the arena of the current mid-east tension between the United States, Israel and Iran. It leads the reader to examine the separate functions of church and state, and what it means to be a radical Christian who loves others the way Christ loves them. Through conflict between characters with opposing views, this story explores a mystery and a seeming paradox: Why does God give the State authority to wage war, yet he brings and demonstrates a message through Jesus Christ that Christians are to love their enemies, turn the other cheek, and not resist evil men?
