It’s all in the meaning of words. One of the most deceptive aspects of Islam is assigning a different definition to a common English expression. The most common example is the difference between their definition of “innocent victims”, and the more obvious Western meaning. We view any child as an innocent victim of terrorist violence. However, the Islamists consider all infidel children as future enemy warriors and therefore not innocent. They are fair game. Only children of fellow jihadists could be considered innocent. How perverse is that?
Yesterday, I read a great quote from a blog by John Guandolo, a counterterrorism expert and a former FBI agent. He made the same point about “human rights”.
It should be noted, the OIC is made up of all 57 Islamic States across the globe (they include Palestine as one of the member states). In 1993, the OIC formally served the “Cairo Declaration” to the United Nations, which states that the entire Muslim world officially speaking under the banner of the OIC defines “Human Rights” as the imposition of Shari’ah (Islamic Law). Their 10-year plan seeks to spread “Human Rights” to the entire globe.
Most folks overlook this obvious conflict of definitions. We think of human rights as a generic term beyond misunderstanding. Yet our very gullibility and naiveté traps us. We live according to the Biblical imperative of our Judeo/Christian heritage, which teaches us that “Love believes all things.”
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
How does that match up with the record of Islam? So, are we really trapped by love believing all? Not at all. The Biblical admonition to believe, speaks to our default character as believers. However, there is a balancing instruction that carries a strong warning.
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. 1 John 4:1-3
Well, you may ask if I am accusing Islam of an Anti-Christ spirit? Yes. Yes, I am.
My latest book, Simple Islam, explains in more detail exactly why that is an accurate charge. Here is an excerpt from the back cover. (My shipment arrived today and is available to order.)
“Contrary to majority opinion, we do not all worship the same God. Christians and Jews worship Yehovah, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Clearly identified as a Father in the Bible, He also has a Son.
Who has ascended into heaven, or descended? Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has bound the waters in a garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and what is His Son’s name, if you know? Proverbs 30:4
Islam, by contrast, adamantly denies their god is a father or has a son. The Jesus of the Quran is not the Son of God, and did not die. The aim of Simple Islam is to clear the chatter that confuses the issue. As long as the public (and the last two Presidents) insist that we all worship the same God, they will never learn the truth.
A few simple contrasts and the 20/20 hindsight of history will answer your most important questions about Islam. In addition, you will be equipped to share the true Jesus with Muslims everywhere. Although Islam is a pagan religion, Yehovah God loves Muslims; and Jesus died to bring them into His Kingdom. FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD…!”
Add this Scripture to the quote from my book.
Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also. 1 John 2:22-23
Simple Islam is about the irreconcilable differences between the Bible and Islam.

OK, so I am already on the Muslim list, the conservative list, and the Christian Zionist list. It is time to weigh in on the TEA Party. Look at the picture. Have you seen one of these vehicles yet? Chilling. I can see them at the airports or borders, but at TEA Party rallies? It would make sense to see them at OWS (Occupation Wall Street) protests where people are stabbed, raped and abused. But the TEA Party?
ZigZag!
3 09 2013The above quote from The Washington Times assigns a cynical motive to President Obama’s Syria calculus. Is it only about winning the House in 2014? I sure hope not. Yet, most Americans have lost faith in the President’s foreign policy. However, the real problem is the effect of his zigzag on Israel, the only true democracy in the Middle East.
There is great analysis in The Times of Israel. (That is where I got the title for this blog: ZigZag!) The viewpoint from Israel by David Horovitz reveals the dilemma facing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Obama unleashes horror in Jerusalem: “Israel wants to believe the US will yet intervene to stop Assad’s use of chemical weapons, undoing some of the damage caused by the president’s zigzag. For the leadership here, the alternative is too awful to contemplate.
The Israeli political and security leadership is privately horrified by President Barack Obama’s 11th-hour turnaround on striking Syria — a decision he took alone, after he had sent his Secretary of State John Kerry to speak out passionately and urgently in favor of military action. It is now fearful that, in the end, domestic politics or global diplomacy will ultimately lead the US to hold its fire altogether.
It is worried, furthermore, at the ever-deeper perception of Obama’s America in the Middle East as weak, hesitant and confused — most especially in the view of the region’s most radical forces, notably including Bashar Assad, Hezbollah, and Iran.”
Once again, the average person is at a loss to understand the political machinations. The only trustworthy report is from the Bible.
Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of Yehovah been revealed? Isaiah 53:1
We need revelation from Heaven to understand what is going on in Syria. Psalm 83 is the Biblical blueprint for the imminent war. To that we add Isaiah 17 which reveals the coming complete destruction of Damascus. Finally, Isaiah 19 outlines the Arab Spring especially for Egypt and Syria. Yehovah God is in control, and the end will be salvation!
In that day there will be an altar to Yehovah in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to Yehovah at its border. And it will be for a sign and for a witness to Yehovah of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to Yehovah because of the oppressors, and He will send them a Savior and a Mighty One, and He will deliver them.
In that day Israel will be one of three with Egypt and Assyria–a blessing in the midst of the land, whom Yehovah of hosts shall bless, saying, “Blessed is Egypt My people, and Assyria the work of My hands, and Israel My inheritance.” Isaiah 19:19-20, 24-25
As the song says: “Whose report will you believe? We will believe the report of the LORD!“

(As is my custom, I have taken the liberty to change the word “LORD” to Yehovah. Every single time you see LORD or GOD in all capital letters in the Old Testament, the actual Hebrew word is Yehovah. This name occurs 6,828 times in the Hebrew text, yet remains untranslated in most Bibles. His name, obscured for 2,500 years, is now being revealed. It is TIME to restore the name of Yehovah!)
