Perhaps this is a good example of turning the other cheek or being despised for belief in Christ as Messiah. The public witness to belief in Christ and one&#8217;s consecration to the same is an extraordinary witness to the person of Christ who warned his disciples of acts of hatred. But whatever spiritualization of a disgusting insult you want to offer, the act is nonetheless a sign hate and I don&#8217;t think it ought to go un-addressed. Over-zealous youth is a problem whether you live in New Haven, CT, St. Louis, MO or Jerusalem. I wonder if the admonition of the tribunal there is strong enough to alter the behavior of Jewish petulant youth in question.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Read John Allen&#8217;s article, &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/ncronline.org\/blogs\/future-church\/jews-move-halt-spitting-christians-jerusalem\">Jews move to halt spitting at Christians in Jerusalem<\/a>.&#8221;<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NCR journalist John Allen posted a rather disturbing piece yesterday about Jewish youth who spit on Christian clergy in Jerusalem.
