Historical Human Acts of Terrorism in the Name of Christ are Not from a Loving Almighty God

The items of terrorism history you mention as being Christian are not the acts of truly Christian people. (Hitler was definitely NOT Christian). Therein lies the mistake of everyone who thinks that subversive acts done in the name of Christ were sanctioned by Almighty God. Those are the lies of the devil to fool people into thinking that Christ would condone such things. Believe the lies if you want, but do not think that in doing so there will be an excuse in eternity when reading the truth in the Holy Bible and not properly assessing its validity in the lives of every man, woman and child.

Christ did not go to the cross to pay for the sins of mankind in order to excuse the unbelief that has plagued the world in the acts of violence perpetrated to undermine the Biblical love of Almighty God. Christ's sacrifice was made on your behalf for your sins, and that is the central truth of Christianity. All the rest will be judged on that issue when each of us faces Almighty God in our own time, and the acts of a depraved humanity will be a factor in the individual's relationship with Jesus Christ only if there is unbelief. If there is unbelief, then there will be hell to pay. Believing in Jesus Christ as LORD is the only way to escape that judgment.
