Elizabeth Eliot comes to mind here. What she did for her husband’s killers would also be seen as insane...but look at the outcome.

I know nothing of the Biehl’s or their beliefs. It almost sounds like they were attempting the same thing. Not glorifying them, just saying.

I totally disagree. Elizabeth Eliot had a mission and a savior to propel that mission. She never coddled or minimized their sin. She told them there was forgiveness for their sin.

The Biehl’s are stating that what the murderers did was NOT sin, and that Amy, and whites in general, deserve what is done to them. There is no Christ in that message.

Elisabeth Eliot is very different. She never pretended her husbands murder was ok or justified. She did not try to stone for anything to the tribe she forgave.

She forgave them but she did not minimize their sin.
