The World Trade Center was attacked by Islamic terrorists on the 11th of September 2001, months later a firefighter in New York City found steel from the Twin Towers which had a single page of the Bible fused to it.
The steel was discovered under a temporary true route called Tully Road by a photographer who captured the message.The readable page of the Bible had a shocking and great message for all.
The passage was Matthew 5:38 from Jesus' Sermon on the Mount it read:
Retaliation.”
“Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.”
As the photographer explained, “This shredded, burned, and rubble-covered Bible came to me from the loving hands of a fireman who knew that I was the record keeper of ground zero.” And, “My astonishment at seeing the page that the Bible was open to made me realize that the Bible’s message survives throughout time, And in every era we interpret its teachings freshly, as the occasion demands.”
America is a Christian nation, and under President George W. Bush’s leadership we responded forcefully in the Islamic world. However, this is something to consider.
