Title: Let's Love the Country
Content Let's love the country (Romans 9:1-3)
Today marks the 56th anniversary of the Korean War. It was a Sunday, just like today.
With tanks and various weapons provided by the Soviet Union, they started crossing the 3.8 parallel, but South Korea was not making any preparations, and it was the busy farming season, so everyone was not on vacation. In just three days, Seoul fell. The Syngman Rhee government hastily fled, leaving only the bottom of the Nakdong River to be almost entirely occupied by the enemy in South Korea. At this time, the United Nations was urgently convened and under the command of General MacArthur, through the Incheon Landing Operation on September 15, the ROK and Allied Forces won the Battle of the Nakdong River and continued to push and advance northward, advancing to the Yalu River in October and the Tuman River in November. But suddenly, the Chinese Communist Army joined forces with the Inui tactic, and the Allied Forces were pushed back to the current 3.8 parallel, and both the Soviet Union and the United States concluded an armistice in 1953 regardless of our intentions because electricity consumption was very high.
As a result of this three-year war, the entire land was devastated, both in South and North Korea, and 180,000 UN troops including South Korean soldiers were killed, 520,000 North Koreans and 900,000 Chinese soldiers died. We know how many people were executed as reactionaries when North Korea briefly occupied South Korea. While fleeing at this time, North Korea kidnapped 85,000 leaders of all classes and dragged them back to North Korea.
The 6.26 War was a reunification war started by Kim Il-sung, and he admitted that it failed because the United States interfered.
This is history. History, however shameful, must not change it. However, some South Korean politicians and leaders claim that 6.25 was an invasion of North Korea. The 6.25 War was initiated by Kim Il-sung, who was instigated by the Soviet Union and China.
In a word, communism is the idea of eliminating the gap between the rich and the poor by denying the private property system and realizing the common property system. Since the 18th century, liberal democracy and communist socialism have been fighting each other for power to expand their territory. The Soviet Union and China, who were the agents of communism at that time, encouraged North Korea to provoke war in order to expand its power.
However, the Soviet Union abandoned communism. On November 1, 1991, socialism was deleted from the name of the Soviet Union and de facto renunciation of communism, and on January 1, 1992, the Federation of Independent States was established.
After World War II, most of Eastern European countries adopted communism, but Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Yugoslavia, and East Germany all gave up communism in 1989.
Communism in China was established in 1949 as the People's Republic of China. However, in 1989, it recognized private property and advocated revision communism.
What about South Korea and North Korea now? North Korea is still eager to unify Kim Il-sung with the Juche idea and communism. However, it is a country without political freedom, has imprisoned more than 200,000 political prisoners, and economically it has become a country that threatens and blackmails with nuclear bombs. However, South Korea became the 12th largest economy in the world and a free country.
But what is truly sad and worrisome is that the current government advocates pro-socialism and is running politics with the theory of communism, which has already failed in history. To put it simply, he intends to implement a politics of taking what belongs to those who have and giving it to those who do not have it. The current government's pro-socialist politics are wrong. It means I hate communism.
What is more worrisome is that the current government is indiscriminately rushing to unify the two Koreas despite the fact that communism in North Korea is still alive.
The state policy of North Korea is to reunify the country with Kim Il-sung's Juche ideology. Nothing has changed. History tells us how cruel and vicious communism was in the past, and the elders here are witnesses.
How will you love your country?
??We must never tolerate communism.
We must fight communism with the faith of the martyrs. Communism and Christianity never coexist. During the 6.25 Incident, he was the first to kill those who believed in Jesus. Communism is not a country ruled by God, but a country ruled by communism. Communism is not a political system, but a subtle shadow and reality of Satan the Devil. Therefore, it is necessary to prevent the penetration of communism with martyr faith.
??Let's love the country as light and salt.
It is to light the darkness, to burn iniquity, and to taste it. To do that, it must melt. have to sacrifice
When Elder Kim Yong-gi of Canaan Agricultural School was awarded the Magsaysay Award, he wore a hanbok and rubber shoes to the awards ceremony.
All the media outlets were not tailored to Elder Yonggi Kim's face, but to rubber shoes. At that time he said
?쏧 wear rubber shoes because I am Korean. Because I am a farmer. Because I am a Christian. Because I am the leader of Korea.??Diligence, thrift, frugality... Not just love, but sweat and tears!
??Let all Christians work together to establish a kingdom ruled by God.
Springs will overflow in the desert. The flowers will bloom in the desert and the fragrance will fall. When the kingdom where the Lord reigns comes, this land will become a flower garden. Evangelism is patriotic work. Let's establish the kingdom where God rules by witnessing the gospel one by one.
??Let's pray for the country and people.
Let's pray for our groaning compatriots in North Korea who cannot die today under communism! Let's pray that the communists in North Korea will fall as soon as possible! Have mercy on this nation and pray! Pray that this tragedy will not repeat itself by teaching the painful lessons of 6.25 to my beloved descendants!
Today is the 56th anniversary of the 6.25 Incident. That day was also a Sunday. Let's not forget the painful lessons of the Korean War!
