Know the enemy - Part 4

Posted in: 2017
It was probably 15 or 20 years ago that I was listening to a Rush Limbaugh radio broadcast in which he was answering a listener’s question, “Rush, why don’t you refer to those who are Rhinos (i.e., “Republicans In Name Only”) as Neo-Cons?” Rush replied, in so many words, by saying most of the “Neo-Cons” have Jewish names, and he didn’t want to be labeled as anti-Semitic. Paradoxically, it seemed a little strange since Rush backs down from no-one—but here, he drew the line, fearing the powerful Jewish element in the Republican Party.

I joined the John Birch Society in 1961. It coincided with my interest in learning Bible Truths. The John Birch Society gave rise to a lot of its members becoming Christians.

He was an outstanding General of the Chinese Army in his day. According to the General, in order to wage successful warfare, one must “know thy enemy.” This concept that Sun Tzu promoted - knowing your enemy – turns out to be a Biblical Principle. The Apostle Paul, centuries later, wrote that Christians must be spiritually mindful of the warfare being waged against them and the warfare against the Christian Faith’s influence on the present civilization in the Western World.
