God’s Word is clear. Romans 12:14-19 says, “Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.””

Terry Jones is a confused pastor who cannot defend his plan on the basis of Jesus’ words. Instead, he is acting out of his own human wisdom, a guaranteed prescription for tragedy. However, according to Moran, Jones claims if God sends him a clear message not to do it, he won’t. — Karyn Brownlee

Looks like Jones’ little stunt caused a counter-protest that got 2 people killed.

Thanks for the correction. What a horrible scheme – save your own ass while putting innocent people at risk of death.
