Which was: No earthly despot, tyrant, dictator, megalomaniac or even a democrat, no matter how powerful, can ever hope to match the power or glory of our own TRUE GOD.
Amen

There is no need to apologize, Brother. I always think it is characteristic of liberal false christians how they view Hitler: as one of the greatest killers of men in all history, and the epitome of evil. Little wonder, then, that these folks have so much trouble accepting the Truth™ of the God of the Bible, who makes Hitler seem a pacifist pussy in comparison. That might be why they ignore parts of the Bible they don't like, which often is everything except John 3:16 and 1 John 4:8.

For
modern-day liberal humanistic human-rights-believers, genocide seems to be a cardinal evil. The Bible predicted that these haters of God and lovers of evil would come:
2 Peter 3:1-4:
This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance: That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:
Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
Of course, this is because they are blinded to the Truth™:
2 Corinthians 4:1-5:
Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not; But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.
The orange part of the above Passage tells of the difference between us, who follow the the entire Bible to the letter, and the liberal christians and their cutting apart of the Bible (dishonesty) and twisting of God's Words (craftiness and deceit).
God, however, abhors of people who think they should "follow their own moral compass," which, of course, is just a form of rebellion against God. God didn't create us as whiners about "human rights," because the only right we have is to burn in Hell (Romans 3:23 & Romans 6:23). God created us as upright people, who do not question His Will:
Ecclesiastes 7:29:
Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.
And God does not take rebellion against His Word lightly:
Deuteronomy 29:19-20:
And it come to pass, when he heareth the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of mine heart, to add drunkenness to thirst: The LORD will not spare him, but then the anger of the LORD and his jealousy shall smoke against that man, and all the curses that are written in this book shall lie upon him, and the LORD shall blot out his name from under heaven.
The awful truth is, it will only become worse, and when God starts punishing these people for their iniquity, they will still not worship him instead of their own "enlightened" ideas:
Revelation 16:8-9:
And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.
When I read this, I always feel very sad about the complete absence of Love in the people that are described here.
Their place will be in Hell:
Revelation 21:8:
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
I consider myself a lucky man to have learned of the True Love™ of the God of the Bible.
