President Bush removes shoes for Allah

Source: www.jnewswire.com

 

The God of the Bible – the God worshiped by Jews and Christians – instructed Moses and Joshua to take off their shoes when they stood in His presence because they were standing on “holy ground.”

 

Last week, United States President George W. Bush, a professing Christian, removed his shoes in order to stand in, and rededicate, the Islamic Center in Washington DC.

 

By standing in his socks in a Muslim place of worship, the president was showing deference to a being the Bible describes as a false god and to an idolatrous religion whose followers are responsible for 90 percent of conflicts raging in the world today.

 

Comments:  Isaiah 46:[9] Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me. The vast majority of ill-informed Westerners think that Allah and God are one of the same.  When a Muslim pronounces “God is great!”, he means Allah not Judaism’s or Christianity’s God the Creator of Heaven and Earth.  President Bush may be among the professing Christians who do not know better or most likely, he was showing respect for Islam’s Allah.  After all, in his war against terror (it’s really the war against terrorism), he doesn’t want to be targeting the ‘moderate’ average Muslim citizens, only the radical suicide bombers who blow themselves up along with hundreds of innocent bystanders.

 

In an attempt to be religiously correct to Islam, Mr. Bush is contributing to the increasingly tolerance and acceptance of Muslim people, culture, and the Koran by American citizens.  Instead of standing up to Islam’s vow to conquer the world by the sword, Mr. Bush has softened the American people’s resolve for assimilation by Islam.  I guess he believes such a conquest won’t happen or he wants to lessen the amount of future bloodletting for all who refuse to bow to Allah will be beheaded.  Heads will definitely roll in the Tribulation Period if a Muslim becomes the Antichrist.

Live Earth rockers fight global warming

Source: CNN.com/Associated Press

 

A 24-hour music marathon spanning seven continents Saturday reached the Western Hemisphere with rappers, rockers and country stars taking the stage at Live Earth concerts to fight climate change.

 

The New York show, which is actually in Giants Stadium in New Jersey, opened with the artist Kenna asking the crowd of 52,000: "You guys realize we're a part of history now?"

 

With other shows in London, England; Sydney, Australia; Tokyo and Kyoto, Japan; Shanghai, China; Hamburg, Germany; Johannesburg, South Africa; and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil -- and even a performance by a five-piece band of scientists beamed from a research station in Antarctica -- organizers promised the biggest musical event ever staged, dwarfing the Live Aid and Live 8 concerts.

 

Other Live Earth venues featured aboriginal elders, virtual-reality performers, a holographic Al Gore and more than 100 of the biggest names in music -- including Madonna, the Police and Kanye West -- who sought to raise awareness about climate change. The concerts are backed by Gore, whose campaign to force global warming onto the international political stage inspired the event.

 

Comments:  The Live Earth concerts are nothing but Satan’s New Ager festival.  The global brainwashing is all encompassing as Earth’s citizens gladly get on Satan’s bandwagon that inevitably transports them to Hell.  The blinded unsaved and the professing Christians are rallying everyone to save Mother Earth (Gaia) from global warming and environmental disasters.  Energized by the No. 1 tree hugger himself Al Gore and backed by godless musicians, celebrities, big wigs, blasphemers galore, the humanoids find commonality with witches, warlocks, native spiritualists, atheists, anyone who dismisses God the Creator and instead worships the creation/creature.  Young children are found among the deceived.  The end game of the Live Concerts for AIDS, Farm Aid and now, Live Earth is to prepare Earth’s citizens for the heralding of the New Age Antichrist.

 

Satan is so utterly clever, isn’t he?  In a narcissistic world where self is so pronounced that when it comes to a person’s soul, many people aren’t concerned.  As Christians, we look back at our pre-saved days and we cringe with horror at the thought that God could have snuffed out our life at any moment and we would have ended up in a lost eternity.  The unsaved are living in peril with each tick of the clock.

'Syria removing Golan army checkpoints'

Source: Jerusalem Post

 

The London based Al-Hayat reported Saturday that Israel was "concerned" that Syria's decision to remove military checkpoints on the road to Kuneitra on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights could be a preparation for war.

 

According to the report, the checkpoints in question had been in place for 40 years, ever since the Six Day War.

 

Comments:  There have been much discussions on Christian dispensationalist Internet forums about the nearness of the destruction of Syria’s capital city Damascus as predicted in Isaiah 17.  Many believe Damascus’ fall will happen this summer when Syria foolishly confronts Israel.  Syria President Bashar Al‑Assad is a trained optometrist not a fighting commander-in-chief.  He needs a new vision prescription since he doesn’t see that well.  He doesn’t stand a chance against Israel’s Top Gun Air Force not to mention Israel’s vaunted ground military.  Frustrated over Israel’s feet dragging in discussing the return of the Golan Heights and under intense domestic pressure to do something, anything, to secure the disputed piece of real estate, Bashar has decided to play “who will blink first”.

 

Israel’s new defence minister is none other than the most decorated general in Israel’s modern history, the cherubic face Ehud Barak.  Barak smacks his lips relishing the thought of laying waste to Syria’s military.  Once he is through with Syria, he’s going to drive Hezbollah out of Lebanon and should Iran interfere, there will be nukes headed Iran’s way.  Israel is well prepared.  The military planners and prognosticators have done their homework.  All they’re waiting for now is Syria to move their tanks and troops and Russian made MIGs.

Holographic Al Gore urges people to fight global warming

Source: seattletimes.nwsource.com

 

Al Gore made a live video appearance from Washington to open the first show on the other side of the world in Sydney. He took the technology a step further a few hours later, appearing onstage in Tokyo as a hologram.

 

"Global warming is the greatest challenge facing our planet, and the gravest we've ever faced," said Gore, who in his holographic appearance wore the only suit in sight.

 

Comments:  The Holodeck was a Gene Rodenberry invention that first appeared on Star Trek: The Next Generation.  It was a virtual reality world where you could indulge in your very own programmed fantasy.  You could either set it to a Safe or Real mode with the latter being so realistic that you could end up losing your arm in a sword fight with a Klingon warrior.  Al Gore used the latest audio and video technology to have his image projected live on stage in any part of the world where the projector is set up.  This reminds us of: Revelation 13:[14] And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. [15] And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.  Wow! That was what I felt inside of me when I saw the image of Al Gore being projected for the audience in Tokyo.  In the future, image projectors could be set up in all places including the remote regions of South America and Africa as the Antichrist addresses the citizens of the world.  The technology exists now!  How close we are to the Tribulation Period.

Arab League plans first mission to Israel

Source: Associated Press

 

The 22-country Arab League will send envoys on a historic first mission to Israel this week to discuss a sweeping Arab peace initiative and how it might prop up embattled Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, Israeli and Arab diplomats said Sunday.

 

The announcement came the same day Israel's Cabinet approved the release of 250 Palestinian prisoners, hoping to bolster Abbas in his power struggle with the Islamic militant Hamas.

 

An official League visit would be a diplomatic coup for Israel. The League historically has been hostile toward the Jewish state, but has grown increasingly conciliatory in response to the expanding influence of Islamic extremists in the region - a concern underscored by Hamas' violent takeover of the Gaza Strip last month.

 

Jordan's foreign ministry said the Jordanian and Egyptian foreign ministers would arrive in Jerusalem on Thursday for talks with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and other Israeli officials.

 

Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Mark Regev said the foreign ministers would lead an Arab League mission to Israel to discuss the Arab peace plan, which would trade full Arab recognition of Israel for an Israeli withdrawal from all lands captured in the 1967 Mideast war and the creation of a Palestinian state.

 

"This is the first time the Arab League is coming to Israel," Regev said. "From its inception the Arab League has been hostile to Israel. It will be the first time we'll be flying the Arab League flag."

 

Comments:  Yet another first.  Who could have predicted the Arab League wanting to come to Israel to discuss peace?  After some 59 years of Arab-Israeli conflict, the Arabs are finally ready to talk peace and Israel’s leaders are optimistic.   Why wouldn’t they be?  With Iran being their common danger, it would be strategic to forge an alliance of peace and cooperation to counter the Iranian threat.  The Arab League consists of mainly ‘moderate’ Arab countries who don’t hate Israel with the same passion as the Shiites of Iran and Syria.  In the Middle East, ‘hatred’ is relative.  The enemy of my enemy is my friend applies here.  Sure, the Arab League still has a heart felt desire to exterminate all Jews, but that time is yet in the future.  For now, they will solicit the Israelis’ help to deal with Iran.

 

The Saudi Peace Plan will be dissected like a high school biology piglet.  Israel’s leaders will examine each proposal in the Plan.  The end result might be a comprehensive peace treaty because it’s a Made in Arabia peace.  Israel ought to be wary, very wary.  She should be reminded of the story of the war between Greece and Troy.  The Greeks could not defeat the Trojans no matter what so they seemingly departed Troy but left behind a wooden horse.  The people of Troy were so happy that they took the horse inside their city.  At night when everyone was sleeping, a secret door was opened in the horse and Greek soldiers climbed down ropes and lay siege to Troy by killing every Trojan male.  The motto for Israel is: Beware of Arabs bearing tidings of peace and security.  1 Thessalonians 5:[3] For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.  Daniel 8:[25] And through his policy also he (the Antichrist) shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.

Christian paintball park provides friendly fire

Source: The Calgary Sun

 

What would Jesus do?

 

The "suitcase nuke" is so close, I can almost make out the red digital display counting down from 10 minutes.

 

Though the view of the heavily armoured case -- sitting in the doorway of an elevated jungle hooch and originally circled by more than 50 "terrorist" minders -- is slightly obscured by a fog of perspiration inside my goggles.

 

With each passing second on the timer, perfect rounds find their painful marks on fighters on both sides.

 

"I'm jumping the barrier to get closer," yells Pte. 1st Class Dan Whipple, a stocky 23-year-old American soldier who I've followed into this peculiar holy war.

 

Now is the time, I remind myself, just before I also jump the wall of logs: "If you get hit in the head, don't swear out loud."

 

It's just one of the rules when playing Christian paintball.

 

In just over two months, Whipple -- local high school wrestling star, now engaged soldier on leave -- will be shipped out to Iraq with his Airborne comrades. But on this Saturday, here in a rural community serenely named Pleasant Prairie, he's come to send out only the friendliest fire at North America's largest Christian paintball park.

 

It's called Promised Land.

 

Pastors, church youth leaders and mostly believers from Great Lakes states come here to bond and battle.

 

Every Canadian-made green paintball that stings you like the end of a wet towel, does so with the grace of tiny Christian fish symbols printed on their shell.

 

"I've looked in the Bible, and can't find anything wrong with paintball," reasons Andy Leong, a 48-year-old Chicago marketing executive who's come to celebrate the birthday of his 13-year-old son, Luke. "In fact, the Bible is filled with combat as a topic."

 

The park, Leong says, preparing for battle, includes a lot of his family's Christian values -- a prayer before combat, no swearing, no cheating and no spiteful players.

 

Comments: Yet another sign that the Tribulation Period is about to start, a 7‑year period in time just prior to Jesus’s physical return to Earth.  After the Rapture event, how will those who get saved fight off the Antichrist’s police and military and try to survive until the very end?  The book of Revelation says:  Revelation 6:[11] And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

 

Millions upon millions of people worldwide will be saved through faith in Jesus Christ.  They will be relentlessly hunted down as a result.  The slaughter will be great.  Those who survive to see Jesus return to Earth will have fought and won battles with the AC’s henchmen.  Christian paintball skills will enhance their survivability.  Paintball is exciting and it is good clean (green is cleaner than red I suppose) fun.  Christians need to vent their pent up energies and this family game does the job.  If it promotes fellowshipping and closeness, it’s good for the soul and public testimony.  Christians aren’t wimps, far from it.  Get ready, Christian soldiers!  NOTE: Quite a few dispensational Christians believe they will go through the entire 7-year Tribulation Period and thus they’re stocking up guns, ammunitions, food, water and supplies.  Paintball prepares their entire family for the physical persecution to come.
