CRUCIFIXION OF BELIEVERS – TODAY, NOT 2000 YEARS AGO!

Saturday, May 17th, 2014

The crucifying and butchering Christians in horrendous fashion and ritual by radical Islam is seeming to become a trend. Christian Persecution is abounding all around the world but more explicitly in Islamic nations. The Main Stream Media is mum about the whole issue but others are not. Kirby Anderson recently revealed in his article, War on Christians:
Quoting Ron Prosor, Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations… “The Middle East may be the birthplace of three monotheistic religions, but some Arab nations appear bent on making it the burial ground for one of them.” Christian communities could be found in the Arab world for centuries. Even at the turn of the 20th century, Christians made up 26 percent of the population of the Middle East.Today that figure is less than 10 percent and declining. Extremist governments are driving away the Christian communities that have lived in the Middle East since the religion of Islam was born.

Christians are losing their lives, liberties, businesses, and churches across the Middle East. Those that survive and can relocate are seeking refuge in neighboring countries often to find they are not welcome there as regimes change.Over the past ten years, two-thirds of Iraq’s 1.5 million Christians have been driven from their homes. Many settled in Syria. Now they are leaving Syria. The Syrian Christian population is only a third of what it was a few decades ago.

ARE YOU FRIEND OF GOD?

Who am I that you are mindful of me?
Who am I that you hear me when I call?
Who am I that the King would bleed and die for?
Who am I …just who am I and…who do I think I am anyway?
One thing I know is the Biblically-based self-esteem is a lot different from that of the world.  Another thing I know, all those “Who am I…” phrases above would make some good Christian songs! The Holy Scriptures tell us that Abraham, the father of the Hebrews and Christianity – was a friend of God. (James 2:23 …and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “AND ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD, AND IT WAS RECKONED TO HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS,” and he was called the friend of God.”)
The great prophet Daniel was well thought of by the God of Heaven and Jesus Christ Who sent him as a messenger. He was just doing what he was called to when God sent an angel to tell the Prophet how important he was to the Kingdom of Heaven….we pick up the account here:
