The official government of the
United States today is either monumentally naïve, terribly incompetent, or
extremely evil. Regardless of which is
correct, it is putting the US and the world in extreme danger.
The official position of the
government regarding the horrible violent actions of the various terrorist
groups in the world today defies belief by anyone. Even the average man on the street knows it
is muslim terrorist groups that are doing the horrible killing in so many
nations today. They are muslim
terrorists. They shout muslim slogans
when they attack and kill. And their
targets most clearly are non-muslims – Christians, Jews, others – and even some
muslims who do not adhere to their rigorous interpretation of the koran.
This
is a serious, serious issue and a major part of the end times in which we are
living. And the refusal of the formal
government of the USA to recognize these groups by name as muslim terrorist
groups is outrageous and unconscionable and not to be accepted by any thinking
person. Lately I have heard widely
respected news commentators call this refusal to acknowledge as being
pathological. Franklin Graham said recently
he thinks the leader of the US cannot see what is happening because he sees
from a muslim perspective (his father was a muslim, his step-father a muslim,
he grew up in a muslim country, he went to a muslim school).
Whatever
the cause, my dear friends, you must recognize how wrong and misguided and evil
it is. These muslim terrorist groups are
not just evil people, or out of work evil people, or just bad guys seeking
gain. No. They are adherents to their strict
interpretation of islam. From the
beginning islam spread through violence.
As I wrote recently, shortly after Mohamed’s death islam spread by the
army of its adherents sweeping throughout the Mediterranean countries, finally
to be stopped by the French army of Charles Martel in Tours in 732 AD.
The
actions of the various terrorist groups are not just to win some local
gain. No, overall there is a much more
sinister objective. This statement by
the leader of ISIS itself gives a good understanding of where the overall islam
terrorist activity is heading:
“A day will soon come when the
muslim will walk everywhere as a master.”
Also
this one by the leader of Hamas:
“We say this to the West – by allah
you will be defeated. Tomorrow our
nation will sit on the throne of the world.”
Are
you getting that? It’s pretty clear,
isn’t it? Where have you heard such
statements before? Hitler? Back in the 1930’s some tried to ignore him
too.
This
radical muslim movement is a serious, wildly violent and evil movement that
justifies its actions by the koran and their interpretation of what they are to
be doing. There are branches with
various names in many countries today now – ISIS, Al Qaida and its many
variations, Boko Haran, and more. It has
at its core a religious fervor, and a belief that they are doing what is right,
what they are called to do. It is a religious conflict. In their own words, a jihad, which means a
religious war.
Yes,
I know we are in the last days, and there are all sorts of frightening things
going on. But is not the behavior of
the US government here puzzling, wrong, dangerous, threatening to the very
safety of the American citizens? Should
not only believers in Jesus but really all people be standing up against this
aggressive, horrible evil? The answer
here is a resounding yes. The comments
of the US government about dealing with all this by finding jobs for the
terrorists shows an ignorance or an evil that is frightening itself. These terrorists have a much greater
objective in mind than jobs!
In
reality, it makes better sense to call the actions of all the radical muslim
terrorist groups a movement. A war. It is a jihad, a war against what they
consider to be unbelievers, which is everyone on earth who does not believe as
they do.
So
I encourage you all to be in prayer, to seek God on all this, and not to be
lulled into any false sense of security.
This is the enemy in action in a big and threatening way. The US government is acting like an ostrich,
or the leader like the president of the US who preceded Abraham Lincoln and the
Civil War. Or maybe it and he are acting
much more subversively. What do you
think is happening? What do you think
you should do?
I
do not think the Lord expects his followers to just lie down and be destroyed
or let others be destroyed by the evil one without a fight. Prayer is a great weapon to use. And so too is taking real military action
like the allies took in WWII.
As
a last comment, from the end times perspective, this appears clearly to be a
move to that one-world government that is part of the end times. Certainly that is what these jihadists are
aiming at, whether you ever hear that on the news or not.
Keep Your Eyes on Jesus!
