In what's sure to be a big hit in the Muslim world, it's being reported that our soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan are using rifle gun sights that are inscribed with New Testament Bible Verses by the manufacturer. The Bible verses are coded as pictured along with the stock number in the form of an abbreviation such as JN8:12 or 2COR4:6.
While it would be ironic if they had the "those who live by the sword, die by the sword" bible verse, the verses on the gun sights were more focused on Jesus:
'When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life. John 8:12'
'For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness, made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. 2 Cor 4:6'
For those who live or have been to Southern California, there's a hamburger chain called In-N-Out that similarly places discreet bible verses on their food product wrapper and cups.
However, there is a slight difference between placing Bible verses on junk food wrappers and placing Bible verses on weapons, especially when the enemy will use it as propaganda to say that that America is using "Jesus guns" as part of a Christian crusade against Islam.
