Madness???THIS IS SPARTA

Spartan King Leonidas: Submission? Well that's gonna be a bit of a problem. See, rumor has it that the Athenians have already refused you, and if those philosophers and boy-lovers have found that kind of nerve...
Theron: [Interrupting] We must be diplomatic.
Spartan King Leonidas: ...and of course Spartans have their reputations to consider.
...
Messenger: Choose your next words carefully, Leonidas. They may be your last as king.
Spartan King Leonidas: You bring the skulls and crowns of conquered kings to my doorsteps, you insult my queen, and you threaten my people with death and slavery! Oh, I've chosen my words carefully, Persian. Perhaps you should have done the same!


How often have we been intimidated by the enemy, by the threats he waves at us, persian messenger carries the skulls of all the kings they have conquered, when satan brandishes his fangs, when he demands us to bow down to him with threats of death and slavery, he comes, insults our bridegroom, I have chosen my words carefully, have you chosen yours?
You are either for God's kingdom or against him, even when it seems that everywhere is surrounded by satan's forces, we know that our God and King stands by us, we can reject satan with confidence, laugh at his threats with distain, for we know the strengths we fight with, and we Christians, also have our reputation to consider. We're known as descendents from Jesus himself, taught to love with great power and authority, who then can tell us to submit to them but our one true God, anyone else is just an imposter.
These lines really got me, the ancients holds their words in high regards, like how christians should hold our words, so when they speak they choose their words carefully, one slip from the Persian messenger in his tongue cause him to be buried in a well. How should christians speak then? James chapter 3, TOO EASY!!! We are men and women of our words, it is by our testimony and Jesus' blood that satan will ultimately be defeated (Revelations) So let us speak boldly and with confidence that God has given us the wisdom, Colossians 3:16 "16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God." HAROO!!
