We are all
very sad that little Jennifer Cardy was so brutally murdered by Robert Black
all those years ago, but are glad that he was found guilty of her murder last
week in Armagh court.
I heard the
reports on the broadcast media, and I am sure many listeners could identify
with the sentiments which were expressed by presenters about how the Cardy family handled that
situation.
Many did indeed realise that the only reason why they could have handled their traumatic
situation so well was because they were Christians, true Bible-based Christians,
the only kind of Christians there are.
Many media people spoke of
not being able to understand how they could have dealt with that situation so
well and in so dignified a manner.
Well, the
answer is, and I say this humbly and without any intention to insult anyone, but
rather to help them, the answer is that people who do not possess the spiritual
faculties that would have enabled them to do this, were simply mystified by their witness. Without the enlightenment of the Holy Spirit,
it is impossible to understand this spiritual phenomenon. Indeed, without the presence of the Holy
Spirit in the lives of the Cardy family, they could not have come through this
ordeal as they did.
The bottom
line is that spiritually dead people cannot understand this kind of thing. As Jesus said, “You must be born again,”
(Jn.3:7).
