“There isn’t a counter message to ISIS.
The alternative to this apocalyptic,
utopian, vision of a perfect state…. is WHAT?
The regimes in the Middle East?
Your humdrum routine life?”
Not much of a counter message, is it?”
Fernandez is absolutely
right in one thing.
The war against
ISIS terror and propaganda hasn’t been the most successful. And it's a war we have to win, because they will not stop until they've reached the goal: Submit the world under islam and sharia law.
BUT: THERE IS A COUNTER MESSAGE TO ISIS: INSTEAD BE A SOLDIER IN THE ARMY OF THE LORD JESUS  There is one thing that can replace and supersede the jihadi life of ISIS, which so many young men have joined. That is the calling of a radical personal relationship with The God of The Bible; The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
The message of total forgiveness and
unconditional Love.
The message of Jesus Christ, Almighty God and
Savior:
|
”I
am He who lives, and was dead,
and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of
Death.” (Rev.1:18)
Muslims don't know Jesus as their Savior, because Quran is not telling the truth about Jesus.
Jesus Christ,
the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings
of the earth.
To Him who loved
us and washed us
from our sins in His own blood, and has made us kings
and priests to His God and
Father, to Him be glory and
dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Behold, He is
coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And
all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen.
“I
am the Alpha and the Omega, the
Beginning and the End,” says
the Lord, “who is and who
was and who is to come, the Almighty.”
(Rev. 1:5-8)
THE RADICAL MESSAGE OF JESUS, IS THE OPPOSITE OF THE
GOD IN THE QURAN
 This is the very thing that is making many, many muslims turn their backs to the violent islam, and towards Christianity.
Many muslims is longing
for forgiveness, which many muslims believe they only get through jihad and
blood shed. Not even on their death bed, they feel secure in their
salvation.
The Bible is clear
in this: When we repent and turn to God, He never looks at our mistakes
again.
“As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our
transgressions from us.”
(Psalm. 103:12).
God of the Bible doesn’t define us through human eyes;
He sees the person that He has ordained us to
become.
MESSAGE FOR THE MUSLIMS: THE STORY OF GIDEON Through out The
Bible we see examples of this. People say: Oh, I’m too old, I’m too young,
I’m no good talking to people!Maybe one of the best examples is Gideon. He is afraid of the enemy, and is hiding.
But when God comes
to talk to him, He doesn’t see this frightend boy. God says to Gideon:
“The
LORD is with you, you mighty man of
valor!” (Judg.
6:12b).
Gideon says: But
Lord…
Oh, but Lord…!
Rather than answer
the “why” of Gideon’s questions, God says:
“Go in this
might of yours, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites.
Have I not sent you?” (Judg.
6:14)
He has a wonderful
conversation there with The Lord.
WHAT MAKES A CHRISTIAN SPECIAL?
Graham Cooke, a man who walk close to The Lord, and have
written excellent books about having a vibrant relationship to God, says it
like this:
|
 “God doesn’t relate to Gideon in terms of who Gideon has been, but as “This is how I see you.” So when God shows you who you are, your thinking about yourself has to change, your language about yourself has to change, the way you see yourself has to change, and that becomes the next part of your process. The only way to establish your identity in this life is to kill off those negative things. If you don’t kill off those negative things, they will always war with those negative things. This battle is called 'process.’ It’s going from where you are now, to where God has declared you. So the words given you by God, war against the negative or wrong words given by others.” WATCHING HOW MUSLIMS IN MILLIONS COME TO EUROPE- WHY IS THIS HAPPENING, WHAT IS GOD THINKING?  The story of Gideon is a good story to tell muslims. There’s a lot they might relate to in this story.
People from the
Middle East are usually very spiritual, and like to talk about faith.
If you are a
Christian, and watch how muslims in millions will come to Europe- do you
wonder why this is happening, what God is thinking?
Well, that’s the hard part. We are only humans, God works in mysterious ways.
We can trust Him,
and leave the strategy to Him- He is an excellent strategist and story
teller; the best.
He is brilliant in taking bad situations and turn them into something good, and something that glorify His name- so He will in the last days that we are in.
One consequence of the migrant stream to Europe, is that we don’t have to travel there to tell about Jesus. Another consequence is that (the wrong) religion is now on front pages daily – we are all the time hearing about islam, but not about the word of Jesus about The Kingdom.
What more do you
think God should do, or allow happening, in order to help us evangelize for
“the window”?
What should the church and Christians do?
Jesus said: “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all
the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.”(Matt. 24:14)

FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS..
What is God saying
to you about this situation?
We sure need
supernatural help, don’t we.
Throughout The
Bible we see how God is writing history together
with man.
We know that one
day, God will put an end to evil, and that will not happen without a fight. We can read in detail about how this fight in the last few years on earth
look like, before Jesus returns and ends all evil.
(Ex: Matt.24, Ezek.38, Book of Daniel, Book of Revelation).  |
And
as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately,
saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy
coming, and of the end of the world?
And
Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
For
many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
And
ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all
these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
For
nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall
be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
All
these are the beginning of sorrows.
Then
shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be
hated of all nations for my name's sake.
And
then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one
another.
And
many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
And
because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
But
he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
And
this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness
unto all nations; and then shall the end
come.
(Matt. 24:3-14)
In order to prepare us for such a time, can
this flow of migrants and refugees be a prelude?
Was 9/11 a prelude?
Was trippel disaster Fukushima 2011, with
still large radioactive leaks, a prelude?
Do we really want to know?
It’s hard to loosen
our grip on our secular society, and turn to our spiritual self. We don’t
want that, because we live in a good, free, and relatively peaceful society.
Life is relatively good.
But the church needs to wake up, and start preaching the Gospel and about the end times. It's time to study the end times for all of us. |
OUR WORLD IS A MIRROR OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLD. THE FIGHT IS ON
We shall not let evil win over us- we must
stand up for our Christian values.
We shall stand up for what Jesus tought us. We
shall love muslims as we shall love all other people, and we shall talk to them
about Jesus.
But The Bible is also clear that we shall not submit
to idol worshippers or to their “gods”.
To be nice to
muslims doesn’t mean erase or minimize our own culture, or let our society
kollaps in helping others. On the contrary- we have an obligation to protect
those muslims already here, who appreciates the freedom and equality of our
democracy.
Who is insisting
that we can only help by letting unlimited numbers of migrants into our country?
We must also seek
information, and understand that islam has had an in-bedded goal from the days
of Mohammad, and that is to spread islam and sharia law all over the world.
Qur’an 9:29—Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the Religion of Truth, from among the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
But where
Christians has The Word of God, their faith, prayer and fasting as their weapons,
islam uses violence and force. That the west is fighting ISIS in Syria may
make the terrorists want to retaliate, but the goal and the agenda has been there all along.
|
I pray we all must
wake up, and seek The Lord.
Study His Word.
Ask Him what He
wants you to do, and then do it.
If we are in the
last of days, what should we be doing?
Talk to your
Christian friends and your pastor, talk about it in the church.
|
Then Jesus came near
and said to them, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on
earth. Go, therefore, and
make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and of
the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
teaching them to observe everything I have
commanded you.
And remember, I am
with you always, to the end of the age.
Matt. 28:18-20
God bless us all.
