A Response to “Pedophilia Condoned (Approved) By Islam” & “Dalai Lama With Roman Catholics, Greek Orthodox and Others”
The following is, as the title says ... a response to two articles posted at "apostle1.com" - - - "Pedophilia Condone (Approved) by Islam" & "Dalai Lama with Roman Catholics, Greek Orthodox and others".
A DEFENSE OF CHRISTIANITY
“For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6)
The two quotes above, from Holy Scripture, says it all. Does any more need to be said? Those who profess to be Christians, and that includes all of the various Protestant groups along with the Catholics, both the Roman and the Orthodox jurisdictions, should believe both of these verses, with every fiber of their being, since all Christian belief is based on what these verses tell us.
What is happening to the Church (the Body of Christ) is truly disturbing, but what is even more disturbing is that so many of our Church hierarchs and leaders are behind the inevitable demise of Christianity as we know it. Even many of our political leaders, who claim to be Christian, are also, either knowingly or unknowingly, helping to eradicate Christianity from the public venue, under the guise of Political Correctness.
When a Roman and/or Orthodox Catholic Priest invites Imams from the Islamic religion, Hindu “Holy men”, Wiccans (witches), nature worshipers, etc., to share the altar of their church, even, and especially if that church happens to be St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, and the priest is the Roman Pope himself, to take part in a bastardized “Mass” and worship service, then if truth be known, this is nothing short of “Desecration” of a Holy church and a Holy altar. I believe in religious freedom and in respecting others beliefs, but not if it means the destruction of all that I hold holy, the Christian Faith!
The silence of the faithful is deafening. Where are the believers? Why won’t they speak out? Perhaps they fear martyrdom, and I do not mean the evil and disgusting martyrdom of mass murder and suicide that Islam preaches. “Fear not those who could take your life and destroy your body, but rather fear Him who can destroy your soul.”
I don’t know how many of you remember the week-long celebration of the founding of the United Nations, that was held in New York City in 1998, but Kofi Anan, the Secretary General of the UN, in one of his speeches, when discussing religion, talked about a “One World Religion”, that would be under the control of the UN.
In this speech. Anan said the following: “I look forward to the day when the world will come together under a one world religion. All will be welcome, even Christians, but first, they must be willing to give up their belief that Jesus is the only way to heaven. If they don’t, they will have to be dealt with.”
How dare this man make such a statement? But the sad thing was, not one Christian leader spoke out in defense of Christianity. This so-called one world religion which Kofi Anan and the rest of those who support the UN, would be a conglomeration of bits and pieces from every conceivable religious belief. It will have parts of Buddhism. Hinduism, Shintoism, Naturism, Witchcraft, Christianity, etc., all mixed together into an obscene, Satan inspired nightmare. Do you doubt this? Wake up, we are on our way there, just look at what took place in Mexico City, when the Dalai Lame spoke for forty minutes, before a crowd of over 1,000. There were representatives from just about every major religion in attendance, including even the Greek Orthodox.
The Dalai Lama stated that: “I am tremendously happy to share the altar of the old metropolitan Cathedral here in downtown Mexico City…..”. The cathedral was opened to him by Mexico City’s Roman Catholic Jurisdiction's Archbishop, Norberto Rivera, who also spoke at the ceremony. You can read about it on the Apostle1.com web site [linked at the above title area).
The other danger facing Christianity is Islam. How many times do we hear our political leaders, and some of our Church officials, feed us the lie, that Islam is a peaceful religion? This is a complete lie being put out by the morally bankrupt, politically correct morons that seem to have gained control of our lives. Read the history books, Islam was spread by the sword. It is a religion of darkness, spawned out of hell by Satan himself. Have you noticed that their symbol is the crescent moon? When do we see the moon? At night, when it is dark. Christians are children of the Light.
How in God’s precious name, can Islam be a peaceful religion when if you read the Koran, it supports and condones slavery, the beating of your wives and daughters, and it puts its blessings on the killing of your daughters if you believe they have shamed the family. It is a religion that promotes the killing of those who do not accept Islam. The writings of the sick minded mullahs, promote and condone the sexual abuse of children, even infants. They condemn homosexuality on one hand, yet they, on the other hand, allow men to engage in sexual acts with young boys. Do you have doubts about any of this? Then go to Apostle1.com and read how pedophilia is condoned (approved) by Islam. Then turn on any major news channel and see the atrocities that these wonderful peaceful Islamists are performing in the name of Allah. All of this filth and violence can only come from a mind that has been totally taken over by the Lord of darkness himself, Satan. These purveyors of filth, degradation and violence, have no respect for the sanctity of life. On the outside, they have the appearance of being holy, with public displays of chest beating, and bowing in prayer, and their dawn till dusk fasting during Ramadan, but inside, they are filled with putrid spirits of demons leaving no room for love or peace. If anyone reading this has any knowledge of Biblical history, you would know that these are the descendants of Ishmael, whom God told would be forever at odds with his brother. If anyone thinks that they could ever have any kind of peaceful coexistence with these people, then all I can say is “Ha, I hope you have a good life.”
