Can you guess who said
the following?
"We are committed to ensuring that our programs reach out
to Muslims in all walks of life. From the mountains of Afghanistan
to the valleys of Bosnia to the plains of Africa to the forests
of Asia and around the world we are on the ground working with
our Muslim partners to expand to the circle of peace, the circle
of prosperity, the circle of freedom."
If you are a true believer in Jesus Christ or a Jew this statement should alarm you. This quote comes from none other than United States Secretary of State Colin Powell! Not alarmed that wolves are in the sheep pen? Is this quote too vague or should it only be construed as a political remark designed to garner favor with Muslims?
This quote was made by Powell while he attended an Iftaar, the end-of-the-day meal that breaks day-long fasts during the holy month of Ramadan. Powell attended this gathering of Muslims with an agenda. He told the gathering that he is trying to expand programs to bring educators, journalists and political and religious leaders from Islamic countries to the United States!
Still not alarmed? Doesn't concern Christians or Jews you say? While describing extremism and violence as America's greatest enemies, Powell went on to say, "We must not listen to the siren song of the bigots, extremists who cloak themselves in false spirituality in an attempt to divide and to weaken us."
Tell me my brothers and sisters, who is the honorable Secretary of State referring to? Who are the bigots and extremists? Many of you understand completely what he is saying but there are also many who want to sit on the fence.
Anyone who claims that Islam is a violent religion, that it is bent on world conquest and that it embodies the spirit of the antichrist falls into Mr. Powell's category of bigots and extremists. He is telling the world that true believers who speak out against evil "cloak themselves in false spirituality!"
This is not an isolated statement from Mr. Powell that is unsupported by President Bush. The President of the United States of America, I repeat, the President, actually apologized to Kofi Annan, Secretary General of the UN, on behalf of the citizens of the United States. What did he apologize for? For the statements by Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell and Franklin Graham that told the truth about Islam and its wickedness! What kind of Christian (the President claims he is a believer) would apologize to the world and tell them that the comments by these men do not represent the majority of Americans?
Naturally Powell supported the President by saying, "We will reject the kind of comments you have seen recently, where people in this country say that Muslims are responsible for the killing of all Jews, and who put out hatred. This kind of hatred must be rejected. This kind of language must be spoken out against. We cannot allow this image to go forth of America, because it is an inaccurate image of America. We are a welcoming nation."
I have stated many times that Islam is not a religion of peace! I have stated that Islam has historically gained all of its ground by bloodshed, coercion, slavery and lies. I have stated that Islam embodies the spirit of the antichrist. It calls for the complete destruction of the Jews. No other major religion calls for this, prays for this and works towards this end apart from Islam! In the end-times Satan will wage war against the Jews and the true believers in Christ. Islam and tolerance of all that is unholy will be the vehicle. The world will view the antichrist as a god, a conquering hero ruling from Jerusalem. Just who do you think is looking for a conquering war-monger to come and annihilate the Jews? Islam! They are waiting for their infamous prophet Mohammed to come back and rule.
I want to make the following statement clear and concise while I still have the freedom of speech and those of you in Europe are still allowed to read my so-called hate speech: With all my being I will hate any and all beliefs that promote hatred for the Jews and/or Jesus Christ! Only one religion specifically states in its holy book such things and teaches it with zealousness - Islam! As a follower of Jesus Christ I cannot love what is wicked but only what is righteous and pure. Islam is wicked. To call a religion peaceful that is based on the tenets of war and hatred is to call God a liar! To call those who support righteousness over wickedness "bigots and extremists" is to call God's prophets liars! The President has made our nation an enemy of the covenant - I can no longer support him unless he changes his position.
With that said I must also now say that even though I hate such teachings I cannot and will not hate the adherents of such beliefs. I will fight their wickedness with the Word of God, my resources and my life if need be, but I will not hate them. I will, by the power of the Holy Spirit love President Bush, love Colin Powell and love the adherents of Islam. I welcome them to America, but I will show no welcome to Islam! I will see to their needs and live as their neighbor but I will NOT TOLERATE ISLAM! I will pray for them and keep them from being lonely or abused, but Islam will find no compassion from me! I will heal their wounds and soothe their suffering, but I will stand upon the Rock of Almighty God and beat Islam down with the Word of God, His double edged sword of truth! I will gently feed them with the living waters of eternal life and I will celebrate with those who drink of it, and I will celebrate when the kingdom of Jesus Christ comes from heaven and consumes Islam and the enemies of God with raging fire!
If I am a bigot for such things then by the name 'bigot' I will go by. If I am extreme then 'extremist' shall be my name, BUT I SHALL NOT BE MOVED! Apart from Jesus I can do nothing and apart from Jesus I AM NOTHING! The battle is the LORD's, use me as you will O' Sovereign LORD!
Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. He who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous. He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work. No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God. This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not a child of God; nor is anyone who does not love his brother. 1 John 3:7-10
