The past couple of months were not happy ones for millions of individuals. People living in Israel are now living under a cloud of fear like never before. They don’t know if a Palestinian man or woman will attack them with a knife when they leave their homes for work, shopping or visiting friends. This is a new type of terror because the perpetrator doesn’t care if he/she is killed in the process as long as they get to stab a Jew to death. During this new uprising, more than 90 Palestinian men and women have been shot to death attacking Jews in a knife intifada. Close to 50 Jewish men and women have died as a result of these attacks and there are even more wounded in the hospitals. The mayor of Jerusalem has gone so far as to encourage licensed gun owners to carry their weapons to increase security.

Then there were the terror attacks that occurred in Paris, France on November 13^th when radicalized Muslims killed 130 and injured 368 people. Just 22 days later there was another terror attack in San Bernardino, California when a Muslim husband and wife entered a public medical building and shot 14 people dead and wounded 21 others.

THE KORAN –  THE BIBLE OF ISLAM

It is time to start calling the kettle black. Islam is not a peaceful religion. The teaching in the Koran as dictated by Mohammad in the 7^th century is a mandate to conquer all nations by force and impose Sharia law, which is a militant set of laws that calls for the stoning of women who commit adultery, cutting off the hands of thieves, beheading anyone accused of insulting Mohammad and hanging people who have committed crimes against the Islamic state.

The Koran allows men to have sexual intercourse with children. It is a dirty secret among American soldiers that Muslim officers and soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq routinely sodomize boys. The Koran allows men to have up to four wives at the same time and they are allowed to beat their wives if they are not submissive. Women are required to wear burkas, a bulky dress that covers them from head to toe. Girls are trained to be homemakers and denied a secular education; the majority of Muslim women are illiterate.

Beheadings and hangings are carried out in public squares to instill fear and the local population is mandated to come and bringing their children to the execution. In Saudi Arabia it is common for a person to be sentenced to 1,000 lashes and receive their punishment in public. Since no one can survive that many lashes at one time, the convicted person is kept in prison until his wounds heal, and then he is taken out in the public to receive more lashes. This is repeated until he has received his full sentence. Anyone who survives the full punishment is deformed and crippled for the rest of their life.

JIHAD –  HOLY WAR

The Koran demands that all men wage Jihad against non-Muslim nations. Mohammad declared this to be what Allah expected of his followers. Jihad has been construed by moderates as a benign spiritual struggle but the radical followers see it as their duty to use deadly force against those who oppose Allah with complete disregard for their own personal safety. A Jihadist who sacrifices his life for Allah will be instantly taken to heaven and given scores of beautiful women to pleasure him. Conversely, a Muslim is forbidden alcohol on earth but he will be given all the alcohol he wants in their version of heaven. This is what the Muslim version of heaven and eternity entails.

Beginning in the 1970’s, it became popular among Palestinian Muslims to wear a belt of explosives, walk into a crowd and detonate it. The Mullahs (Muslim clerics) in the Mosques preached the virtue of becoming a suicide bomber and thousands of young men and women killed themselves in this fashion.

During the eight year war between Iran and Iraq in the 1980’s, Iranian Mullahs handed out symbolic plastic keys to heaven and told the young soldiers that if they charged into the Iraqi positions and blew themselves up, they would go straight to the Muslim heaven and instantly receive promised women and alcohol. In addition, thousands of young Iranian children charged through minefields and were killed as they made secure paths for Iranian soldiers to circumvent the danger. These young boys were also given plastic keys as they sacrificed their lives for the cause of the Iranian mullahs.

THE SPIRITUAL AUTHOR OF ISLAM

In order to understand the radicalization of a Muslim, it is necessary to first examine this religion and founder.

The spiritual author is none other than Satan who masqueraded as an “angel of light” to Mohammad in 610 A.D. in Saudi Arabia and instructed him how to set up this new religion. Satan told Mohammad that he was the angel named Gabriel. Mohammad was illiterate and had another person write down what he heard from Lucifer.

“For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.” (2 Corinthians 11:13-15)

Satan came to the state of New York in 1823 in a vision to Joseph Smith. This time Satan said that he was the angel named Moroni. Smith was also illiterate and had a person write down what he dictated and this became the book of Mormon. Smith was shot to death in jail and Brigham Young took over and led the group west to what would be Salt Lake City. Violence and murder were used by Young to establish an independent Mormon state, which later was conquered by the U.S. Army. Do you see the similarities of these two satanic religions?

REJECTION OF JESUS

Mohammad rejected Jesus as the Son of God. Jesus is referred to as a prophet and teacher in the Koran who failed in his mission. According to the New Testament, any person that rejects Jesus as the Messiah is come in the flesh and has the spirit of Antichrist.

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.” (1 John 4:1-3)

Furthermore, any person who is not born again and has received Jesus as his personal Lord and Saviour is a citizen of the kingdom of Satan and Satan is their father.

“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.” (John 8:44)

“For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness; Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son…” (Colossians 1:9-13)

According to these Scriptures, we can draw the conclusion that every person who is a Muslim is possessed by demons.

It must be understood that every person who is demon possessed is not a lunatic, but each person who is possessed of demons has the potential to turn into raging maniac, if the demons so wishes.

MODERATE MUSLIMS

I am sure that you have heard the expression “moderate Muslims.” They do not read the Koran and neglect to attend Friday prayers at the local mosque. He can be likened to a secular Christian who does not pray, read the Bible and attend church.

A moderate Muslim claim to be a Muslim but give allegiance to the nation in which he lives. He will behave just like backslidden Christians and participate in smoking, drinking alcohol, using drugs and gambling. They are essentially a Muslim in name only.

THE RADICALIZATION OF A MUSLIM

Satan mimics God and has demons ready to revive and radicalize lukewarm Muslims. Just like the Christian churches have evangelists preaching revival, there are also Muslim evangelists operating in mosques try to wake up secular Muslims through fiery preaching and turn them into fanatical followers of Mohammad.

Muslims who have problems in their marriages, are hooked on drugs, pornography and alcohol are prime candidates to become revived. Once a Muslim has become radicalized, demon activity increases and the person is now ready to kill and die for Allah.

NIDAL HASAN

Nidal Hasan was born in the state of Virginia in 1970 to a Palestinian couple who had emigrated from the West Bank. He was raised as a moderate Muslim and joined the U.S. Army after he graduated from high school. He rose to the rank of Major and worked at Walter Reed Hospital as a psychiatrist.

In his private life he had a failed relationship which produced two sons. His job at Walter Reed had him treating soldiers coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It made him angry when he heard from these soldiers and the atrocities with which they had been involved. He found out that American soldiers were mistreating Muslims and so he began to communicate with radical Muslim clerics in the Middle East and study the Koran. He soon realized that he had not lived up to the teachings of the Koran.

When he received deployment orders to Afghanistan, it was the straw that broke the proverbial camel’s back. He was ordered to report to Fort Hood, Texas and then shipped out. Hasan decided that it was finally time for him to conduct Jihad and kill as many American soldiers as possible, then when he was martyred, it would be on to heaven and his reward of women and alcohol.

Hasan burst into a medical clinic at Fort Hood on November 5, 2009 and shot 13 service men to death and wounded 30 more. The Jihad did not go as planned when Hasan was shot by two police officers and paralyzed from the waist down from bullet wounds to his spine. He was sentenced to death at the trial, stripped of his rank, discharged from the Army and is now being held at Fort Leavenworth while awaiting appeal.

Nidal Hasan wrote a letter to Abu Bakr al Baghdadi, the murderous leader of ISIS in 2014 and asked him to grant him citizenship in the Caliphate.

In the Muslim world among radical Muslims Hasan is a hero, who slaughtered  American pigs.

Hasan was raised in America, went to high school, college and medical schools, He received a doctorate degree in psychiatry. He was a well-educated person, but when the Islamic Jihad demon took over, he turned from a mild-mannered doctor into a blood-thirsty murderer who regretted that he did not kill any more than he did. He showed no remorse after the shooting; only hate for America and its people. That is the definition of a radical Muslim. 

2015 PARIS ATTACKS

A radical Muslim cell struck in Paris on November 13^th in the middle of the day. There were a total of eight Jihad attackers who targeted a soccer stadium, restaurants and a theater. There were three suicide bombings in one attack at the stadium, a fourth suicide bombing in another attack, and shootings at four locations in four separate attacks. The four started shooting people in restaurants, on the streets and in the theater. A total of 130 persons were killed with an additional 368 injured.

Three of the attackers were killed by responding swat teams, while one got away. All of the terrorists had lived in Europe for a while and some were even born in Europe. One woman had been a prostitute before she became radicalized and the others were common criminals who changed from moderate Muslims to Jihadists. 

Once a moderate Muslim is radicalized, there is no turning back. They are blood thirsty killers who will show no pity to their victims. They are filled with spirits from Satan’s kingdom and they are carrying out their father’s wishes. (John 8:44)

SAN BERNARDINO, CALIFORNIA

I was going to watch the news on December 2^nd and was stunned to see a video stream from a shooting in San Bernardino. I followed the development of this tragedy because it confirms what I already knew: a radical Muslim is very dangerous indeed.

Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik, a married couple, targeted a San Bernardino County Department of Public Health training event and holiday party. Farook was born in the United States to a Pakistani couple who immigrated to the United States. He went to high school and graduated from college in 2010. He found employment with the San Bernardino County Public Health Department and worked as a restaurant inspector for five years.

He had written on his Facebook account that he was a moderate Muslim that did not drink or smoke. He did not want to marry an American woman and was using an online dating service to find a suitable Pakistani woman to marry. His personal hobbies were snowboarding, camping, working on cars and target practice shooting with his siblings. He attended the Islamic Center in Riverdale, California, where he worshiped until January of 2014.

Farook flew to Pakistan in July of that year and only stayed there a few days. He returned to the U.S. with his bride-to-be, Tashfeen Malik and the two were married in August. He has also visited Saudi Arabia twice.

Malik became pregnant and gave birth in June of 2015. Farook had a decent job, earning $70,000 per year, and was able to rent a townhouse in a middle class neighborhood. Outwardly this couple was living the American dream with a good job, a nice home and a new baby. But something was happening inwardly that wasn’t immediately obvious. They became radicalized and the demons of Jihad moved them to wage war against the American people. Farook must have connected with radical Muslim clerics online and been convicted that he could no longer be a moderate Muslim. He had to go to war and die as a martyr for Allah.

He and his wife started to plan for an attack by purchasing handguns legally with background checks. They also bought materials to make pipe bombs to be detonated remotely. They established contact with radical Muslim groups inside and outside the United States and were being guided and trained how to be deadly Jihadists. Someone purchased two military style assault rifles for them. They also purchased body armor and special face masks, which were used when they carried out their attack along with thousands of rounds of ammunition.

It is not known if Malik had any weapons training prior to coming to the United States, but it is obvious that both of them had been training with their weapons at some location in the United States.

In order to purchase firearms in California, there is a mandatory waiting period after you pay for them while a background check is carried out. California also has a restriction that only allows you to purchase one gun per month. This indicates that they were planning the attack for some time prior to when it took place on December 2^nd.

Furthermore, Farook had rented the black SUV  four days before the attack, which indicates the shooting at his workplace was not a spur of the moment decision.

As radical Muslims, Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik made the decision to become martyrs and die in Jihad. They had been promised a wonderful life after death. Malik was the mother of a six month baby and yet the demons were so strong that she made the choice to die! They drove to Farook’s mother at 8:00 am to drop off the baby and lied that they had a doctor’s appointment and would be back within a few hours. Then they drove back to their home, got into the black SUV, donned the body armor, and drove to Farook’s workplace where they would slaughter as many Americans as possible.

It is interesting to note that one of the first to be shot was a Messianic Jew, who had been witnessing to Farook for some time and had tried to lead him to Christ. Once the deed was done, they quickly left in their SUV and drove back to their home in the city of Redlands. When the police showed up after a few hours, they fled in the SUV, and after a few miles, there was a shootout and both were killed.

Instead of going to the Muslim heaven, Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik were surprised when holy angels arrested their souls and brought them to hell. They have been placed in chains and the tortuous flames have been turned on. They are just like the other fools who realized too late that they wasted their lives on earth. They can only await the Great White Throne Judgment and the Lake of Fire. They and the other Jihadists are cursing Mohammad day and night, who has also been in hell for some 1,300 years. (Luke 16:20-31; Revelation 20:11-15)

SUMMARY

Satan grew the Islamic scourge after the death of Mohammad in 632 A.D. and his demons possessed the men that made up the Islamic armies. They went north from Mecca and Medina and conquered the Persian Empire which at the time was a Christian nation. Then they went east and forced the people in Afghanistan and what is now Pakistan and parts of India to convert to Islam or die. This was followed by a southern invasion into northern Africa.

They went by ship and took the islands known today as Indonesia and forced the people living there to convert to Islam. Other Islamic armies laid hold of modern day Iraq, Jordan, Israel, Syria, Lebanon and Turkey. They destroyed Christian churches and under the threat of death forced the people to become Muslims.

Other Muslim armies drove north into what is today Russia and took large portions of Southern Russia and all the nations that end in “stan” were made Muslim by the sword.

Islamic armies forced themselves northwest through Greece and established a Muslim stronghold in what is today Bosnia and Albania. It was not until the late 1700’s that the Austrian Empire was able to drive the Islamic armies back into Turkey.

North Africa had become Christianized by 700 A.D. and there were many churches from Egypt to Morocco. When the Islamic armies took Egypt and the rest of northern Africa, millions were put to the sword that refused to give up Jesus for the false prophet Mohammad and his moon god named Allah. The Islamic hordes crossed the Mediterranean Sea and conquered Spain and Christian blood once again was flowing as they were slaughtered for their faith. The Muslims were driven out of Spain hundreds of years later but they were able to hold on to the other lands they had taken significantly longer.

Islam is not a peaceful religion; it is a hell-bent satanic cult whose intent is to conquer the world, make everyone Muslim and have them live under Sharia law. This is a statement of fact that cannot be denied.

Around the first millennium after Christ, the kings of the West and the Roman Catholic Church tried to take back the land of Canaan and Jerusalem in three different crusades. The crusaders were supposed to be Christian but they were just as vile as the Muslims and the war raged for years until the armies from the west were defeated.

World War I finally broke the stranglehold of the Muslims when the Ottoman Empire was defeated and divided into the many states that now exist in the Middle East. From 1920 to 1950, the Muslim nations were too weak to advance the Islamic religion, and from 1950 to about 1980, ruthless dictators ruled most of the nations like Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Syria, Iraq and Iran. Chaos developed and wars broke out once the United States and other Western nations intervened and began to remove these dictators.

The destabilization of these countries has created large streams of Muslim refugees that have migrated to Europe, the United States and Canada. What the Islamic armies were not able to do for more than 1,400 hundred years, Western political leaders have managed to achieve in less than 40 years by allowing Muslim refugees access to their respective nations.

The radical Muslims no longer live exclusively in the Middle East but they are spread out over Europe and North America.

Is it possible for the police, FBI or the CIA to stop Islamic terror in the United States? No, they are here to stay and die and their radicalized beliefs will slaughter many people before they are martyred and sent on to the Muslim heaven.

Who is to blame for this mess? The Devil. His plan is to destroy all nations and create so much chaos that people will eagerly clamor for a world dictator to rescue them and exterminate all Muslims.

Jesus and the power of the Holy Ghost is another way to stop radical Muslims. This is a bloodless solution and many can be saved and turned into strong Christians. Don’t believe me, just look at the apostle Paul before and after his conversion.

Is it happening now? Yes, in almost all Muslim nations Jesus is revealing himself to thousands of Muslims. When they see Jesus enter their homes and speak to them, their eyes are opened and they embrace Him as the Son of God and Savior. Underground churches are springing up in all Muslim nations, and if the trend continues, God is going to solve the problem of radical Islam by converting them to Christ.

Al Hayat in Turkey is a Christian television channel that is beamed via satellite into every Muslim nation in the Middle East and North Africa. It is staffed and operated by Christians from Muslim nations and they produce their own programs in the different languages. Tens of thousands of Muslims have made this television channel their favorite and come to Christ as a result of the programming aired on the channel.

It is impossible to stop the Islamic Jihadists in the flesh, but through the Holy Spirit, we can see them saved and turned into flaming evangelists for Christ. If you don’t believe me, just examine the transformation that took place in Saul. He was the chief persecutor of the New Testament church.

“For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it: And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers. (Galatians 1:13-14)

Saul was a different man after meeting Jesus on the road to Damascus. (Acts 9:1-25) He was radically changed and his old acquaintances were confounded that Saul, now Paul, began to boldly preach Christ crucified. All the energy that had previously been applied in persecuting the church was now channeled into proclaiming the Gospel message and it got to the point that they finally decided to kill him because he wouldn’t shut up about Jesus.

Paul was drastically different person. That is the power of the Gospel. The born again experience changes you on the inside. It redeems your soul and brings the dead spirit to life. You are delivered from the kingdom of darkness and translated into the kingdom of light. This is why Paul would later say, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believes…” (Rom. 1:16)
