A Christian Response To Satan

As a follow-up to the previous commentary entitled "The Satanic Religion" and as we grieve for the loss of so many in the recent Paris attacks by the demon inspired radical Islamists of ISIS, I felt constrained to share the comments of a grieving Parisian husband, one who clearly knows the one true God and how to deny victory to the son's of Satan.

Antoine Leiris, a Parisian whose wife was killed in the Paris terrorist attacks on Friday, wrote a powerful response to the perpetrators three days after the tragedy. His wife, 35-year-old hair and makeup artist Helene Muyal-Leiris, was killed in the Bataclan concert hall on Friday. Muyal-Leiris leaves behind her husband and one 17-month-old son, Melvil.

"You will not have my hatred! Friday night, you took an exceptional life, the love of my life, the mother of my son, but you will not have my hatred. I don't know who you are and I don't want to know, you are dead souls. If this god, for whom you kill blindly, made us in his image, every bullet in the body of my wife would have been one more wound in his heart.
So, no, I will not grant you the gift of my hatred. You're asking for it, but responding to hatred with anger is falling victim to the same ignorance that has made you what you are. You want me to be scared, to view my countrymen with mistrust, to sacrifice my liberty for my security. You lost!

I saw her this morning. Finally, after nights and days of waiting. She was just as beautiful as when she left on Friday night, just as beautiful as when I fell hopelessly in love with her years ago. Of course I am devastated by this pain, I give you this little victory, but the pain will be short-lived. I know that she will be with us every day and that we will find ourselves again in God's paradise of eternal love to which you have no access. We are just two now, my son and me, but we are stronger than all the armies in the world. I don't have any more time to devote to you, I have to join Melvil who is waking up from his nap. He is barely 17-months-old. He will eat his meals as usual, and then we are going to play as usual, and for his whole life this little boy will threaten you by being happy and free. Because you will not have his hatred either."
