Top Muslim Wall Street Journal reporter converts to Christianity after jihadist attack on priest

July 30, 2016 – by Christine Williams

This post is not to promote conversions, but to highlight the fact that a prominent Muslim reporter for the Wall Street Journal was so repulsed by an act of jihad-by-the-sword that it became the final straw for him. He decided to leave Islam, now putting himself in the ranks of apostates — and he is an exceptionally brave public one at that.

Iranian Wall Street Journal reporter Sohrab Ahmari announced on Twitter that he was converting to Catholicism following the shocking jihad beheading of an 86-year-old priest during a mass in Normandy, France.

Two jihadis pledged allegiance to the Islamic State and its leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi before forcing the priest to his knees and slitting his throat.

They filmed it all; then took terrified nuns as hostage. (more…)

On 15th 9/11 Anniversary, Saeed Abedini Tells Muslims: ‘Islam Is From Satan,’ Followers Started War on Christianity on 9/11

September 12, 2016 – The Christian Post – Stoyan Zaimov

Pastor Saeed Abedini, a former American hostage who was held for three and a half years in an Iranian prison for his Christian faith, said on the 15th anniversary of 9/11 that Muslims started a war on Christianity with the terror attacks.

Abedini said that although most Christian pastors do not want to say it, Islam is a satanic religion that leads people astray.

“Fifteen years ago the shape of the whole world got changed forever and war between Islam and Christianity started by Muslims again,” [sic] Abedini wrote in a Facebook message on Sunday.

“Still after 15 years every day people die because of the teaching of Qur’an and Islam,” he added, referring to the global war on terrorism in the wake of the September 11 attacks, where close to 3,000 Americans were killed.

U. S. Churches Urged to Prepare for Islamic Terror Attacks, But Pray It Doesn’t Happen

August 31, 2016 – OneNewsNow.com

As Islamic terror threats against churches escalate, so should churches’ plans for safety and security – even in the United States.

Dabiq – the online magazine ISIS uses for propaganda and recruitment – is telling radical Muslims to target Western churches. Counter-terrorism experts think the blow is most likely to land in Great Britain, but Chuck Chadwick of the Texas-based National Organization of Church Security & Safety Management says churches in America shouldn’t ignore the threat.

“What we over here can expect is the lone wolf attack,” he offers, “[and] it looks like bombing is becoming popular again.”

While Chadwick says an attack on a U.S. church is probably not imminent, it’s still important to have the conversation. “Having a person who is armed and can respond in deadly force may be an option [for churches],” he says. “If it does happen, we’re prepared; if it doesn’t happen, all glory to God.”

WASHINGTON, D.C., September 12, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Donald Trump became the first presidential nominee to address the Values Voter Summit on Friday afternoon, making four specific promises to evangelical pro-life and pro-family voters.

During “a Trump presidency, our Christian heritage will be cherished, protected, defended like you’ve never seen before,” he said.

“Your values of love, charity and faith built this nation,” he said. But “politicians have really abandoned you, to a large extent. And Hillary Clinton? You can forget about her.”

Muhammad descendant sees vision of Jesus 3 times — the last one saves him after getting stabbed by Muslim extremist

Hazel Torres 13 April 2016

A devout Muslim whose family has direct ties to the prophet Muhammad saw a vision of Jesus Christ on three occasions, leading him to turn his back on Islam and follow the one true God, even if this means being labelled an “infidel” and marked for death by Muslim radicals.

Ali Sayed Husnain Shah narrated his astounding spiritual journey in his new book, “The Cost: My Life On a Terrorist Hit List,” according to God Reports.

Ali said his conversion began when at 15 years old, he traveled from his home in Pakistan to Oxford, England to visit his ailing aunt Gulshan.

After his arrival in England, he was shocked to find out that his aunt was no longer a Muslim, having embraced Christianity several years before he was born.
