Are you ready to deploy?
As a first-time poster to offensivechristians.com I should share my situation with you before proceeding. I’m a young Christian, husband, father of three beautiful young ladies and am deploying in less than 48 hours to conduct combat operations in the Global War on Terrorism. Although this is my first deployment, I have spent years studying the enemy and their tactics.
Our enemies use widely varying tactics, but are always on the offensive. Some conventional tactics include the use of land mines gained from the Soviet Union back in the 1980s, high-tech improvised explosive devices, full out frontal attacks with machine guns or RPGs and, perhaps the most damaging, (mis)information operations via the media and word of mouth.
I am ready to engage the enemy. I know what to expect because I have studied their tactics and am prepared to respond.
Can you say the same? Although you (hopefully) will not face enemies of this sort, you will face those who mock your Christian beliefs, have a multitude of arguments prepared and are ready to go on the offensive. What can you do?
Study their tactics and arm yourselves. One of our goals is to expose attacks on Christianity that you may be exposed to. Some are straightforward and have been around a long time while others are so subtle you might not even be realizing them. Let’s use this venue to share information and learn from each other’s experiences. I’m not deploying alone…why should you?
