Military Warned that Evangelicals are the Number 1 Threat to America

Military Warned that Evangelicals are the Number 1 Threat to America  - WND News

Excerpt:

"Soldiers in the U.S. military have been told in a training briefing that evangelical Christians are the No. 1 extremist threat to America – ahead of groups like the Muslim Brotherhood, KKK, Nation of Islam, al-Qaida, Hamas and others."

What is an Evangelical? There are 2 related definitions that I like for the word Evangelical. The first is simply a person who believe the Bible - and only the Bible - is the infallible, inspired and inerrant Word of God.  These are people that not only believe the miracles in the Bible like Jesus rising from the dead and Jonah spending 3 days inside a 'great fish,' but also take seriously the Sermon on the Mount and Jesus admonition to his followers to be "wise as serpents and harmless as doves."

The second definition of Evangelical is a person who believes the Evangel, or the gospel. For more information on what the gospel is, please take the time to listen to the following sermon by Dr. David Murray:
