What Did He Do Wrong

What did he do wrong? He didn’t rob a bank or a store. He didn’t rob a person walking down the street. He didn’t steal a car. What he did was love God.  He knew our country was in trouble. He knew the way to turn things around was through God.

He chose to bring God’s word to people around the world. For some, it probably was the first time the really heard God’s word. Don’t they deserve to be saved. Have a chance for everlasting life.

In many countries including ours, praising God is frowned upon. They want a world of hate. A world where Satan rules. A world where our children are abused. People are murdered daily and no one is held accountable.

Charlie knew things had to change to make our world great. A place where kids could be kids, people are free to practice religion and people were told the truth. 

He decided to bring God’s word to as many as possible. He knew this would be a life long commitment. He was up for the job with the love and support of his family and friends. 

Did he accomplish what he started out to do?  Just look at the crowds he drew at the colleges. Look how much the students were paying attention to him and his message. 

So what did he do wrong? What crime did he commit? He believed in God. Now his wife doesn’t have a husband and his kids grow up without a Dad. Now that is the real crime.

Thank you.
