The Death of a Terrorist and Eschatology

Tuesday, 3 May 2011 by C T Hall

I was going to write a blog about the death of Osama bin Laden and eschatological tension, but Michael Horton wrote a better article for Christianity Today. To sum, we can be reservedly glad that temporally justice is served but we still should mourn death and that he did not repent. When the Kingdom is fully inaugurated we will fully rejoice over the vanquishing of God’s enemies. As one last point, we should not confuse the actions of the state with the church.

And here’s a good article from Carl Trueman on Reformation21 on the Great Man Theory of history.
