Top Muslim Declares All Christians ‘Infidels

Posted by Raymond Ibrahim on Nov 1st, 2011

To what extent was Egypt’s Maspero massacre, wherein the military literally mowed down Christian Copts protesting the ongoing destruction of their churches, a product of anti-Christian sentiment?

A video of Egypt’s grand mufti,  Sheikh Ali Gomaa (or Gom’a), which began circulating weeks before the massacre, helps elucidate.  While holding that Muslims may coexist with Christians (who, as dhimmis, have rights), Gomaa categorized Christians as kuffar — “infidels” — a word that connotes “enemies,” “evil-doers,” and every bad thing to Muslim ears.

After quoting Quran 5:17, “Infidels are those who declare God is the Christ, [Jesus] son of Mary,” he expounded by saying any association between a human and God (in Arabic, shirk) is the greatest sin: “Whoever thinks the Christ is God, or the Son of God, not symbolically — for we are all sons of God — but attributively, has rejected the faith which God requires for salvation,” thereby becoming an infidel.

Gomaa then offered a hypothetical dialogue between Christians and Muslims to illustrate Islam’s proper position:

Christians: You have the wrong idea about us; we don’t worship the Christ.

PROPHECY FOR AUSTRALIA BY CINDY JACOBS DECLARED AT H.I.M.’s RIM OF FIRE CONVERGENCE IN BRISBANE

September 23, 2011

“There is a coming shaking of the continent in order for a great awakening. The shakings thus far are beginning to awaken the church.

There is a coming shaking of the continent in order for a great awakening.  I saw in a sequence of visions, the whole of Australia as a giant, old-fashioned alarm clock and it was ringing to awaken the church to the hour of destiny.

The next vision in the series was of scales of justice.  There were tipping and in the distance I saw a huge storm gathering.

Stones had been dropped onto the scales on both sides.  I noted they had the words of past prayers from the generations.  The prayers have thus far “balanced” as it were the economy of the nation.

 The third and last in the series was of an hour glass.  The sands of time that had been allowed to stay the coming storms were slipping fast away while waiting for the church to be a loud voice of righteousness in the nation.

INTERPRETATION:

The shakings thus far are beginning to awaken the church.  There will be something of the nature of the American Tea Party that will arise in which the church will have a loud voice.

Christian faces losing home for opposing gay weddings in churches

Controversial: Adrian Smith and his comments on Facebook about same-sex marriage

By Jaya Narain and Steve Doughty posted on 23rd October 2011

A housing association manager faces losing his home because of his Christian views about gay weddings in churches.

Father-of-two Adrian Smith, 54, was demoted and had his pay drastically cut after he posted comments on  his private Facebook page in which  he said that celebrating same-sex weddings in churches would be ‘an equality too far’.

He was hauled before bosses at the taxpayer-funded Trafford Housing Trust in Greater Manchester and found guilty of gross misconduct.

His salary was cut from £35,000 a year to £21,396 and he was given a final written warning that means any further offence will result in his sacking. Mr Smith, who now handles rent collection, was told he had been spared the sack only because of his long service of 18 years.

‘I would do it again 100 times’: Muslim father ‘murdered his THREE daughters in honour killing for dating wrong boys

A Muslim father charged with murdering his three daughters in apparent honour killings has said he would do it again – even if they came back to life 100 times.

Mohammad Shafia, 58, cursed his daughters Zainab, 19, Sahar, 17, and Geeti, 13, saying they were ‘treacherous’ as he likened them to prostitutes during a conversation that was recorded by police.

He is on trial for their murders after they were found dead in the family car along with Shafia’s first wife, Rona Amir, 50, in the Rideau Canal, located in the Kingston area of Ontario in Canada in 2009.

Initially police thought the family had been involved in an accident and Shafia told them during an interview that he didn’t know where they were.

However, his version of accounts did not add up and he was arrested and charged with their murder.

Shafia, who moved to Canada from Afghanistan with his family, is polygamous and after his arrest was heard telling his second wife, Tooba Yahya, that their daughters had brought shame on the family. He said: ‘Even if, God forbid, they hoist us on to the gallows… we accept it wholeheartedly’, a day after his arrest.

The court heard the recordings in which Shafia talks about his daughters and the fact that they were dating while ranting about the family’s honour.

Does the Crucifix ‘Provoke’ Muslims?

Posted by Raymond Ibrahim Bio ? on Nov 4th, 2011

For a religion that is perpetually “misunderstood,” the consistency of Islam is remarkable. Consider how ostensibly diverse issues—complaints of “human rights” abuses at an American university and murder in an Egyptian classroom—are interconnected.t

First, the American story.  According to Fox News:

The Washington, D.C. Office of Human Rights confirmed that it is investigating allegations that Catholic University of America [CUA] violated the human rights of Muslim students by not allowing them to form a Muslim student group and by not providing them rooms without Christian symbols for their daily prayers.  The investigation alleges that Muslim students “must perform their prayers surrounded by symbols of Catholicism – e.g., a wooden crucifix, paintings of Jesus, pictures of priests and theologians which many Muslim students find inappropriate.”

Behind the complaint is John F. Banzhaf III, a George Washington University professor whose website boasts that his “enemies” call him a “Legal-Terrorist” and “the Osama bin Laden of Torts.”  He asserts that Muslim students are “particularly offended” because they have to “meditate” at the school’s chapels and cathedral, where they pray while “having to stare up and be looked down upon by a cross of Jesus.”

Of course, as a private Christian institution, even Banzhaf admits “that it is technically not illegal for Catholic University to refuse to provide rooms devoid of religious icons.”  Still, according to this so-called “Legal-Terrorist,” that CUA refuses to compromise its Catholic image “suggests they are acting improperly and probably with malice.”

Gingrich Says ‘Arab Spring’ is Really ‘Anti-Christian’ Spring

By Stephanie Samuel | Christian Post Reporter – Politics  Mon, Oct. 31 2011

Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich said the Arab Spring and the Muslim campaign against Catholic University are symptoms of a growing anti-Christian climate, and pledged to defend religious freedom around the globe.

Speaking at a South Carolina fundraiser Saturday, Gingrich criticized the Obama administration’s involvement in the Arab Spring – the Middle East grassroots uprising that has overthrown longstanding authoritarian leaders such as Libya’s Muammar Gaddafi and Egypt’s Hosni Mubarak – arguing that such involvement is creating an atmosphere of hatred towards Christians.

“People say, ‘Oh isn’t this great, we’re having an Arab Spring,’” he said. “I think we may in fact be having an anti-Christian spring. I think people should take this [assertion] pretty soberly.”

The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom’s 2011 report states that while “the Egyptian government engage in and tolerated religious freedom violations” before Mubarak stepped down in February, sectarian violence targeting Coptic Christians have grown unchecked following the Arab Spring. The transitional government, the report noted, “has failed to protect religious minorities … during the transitional period when minority communities are increasing vulnerable.”

Rise Up Australia Party (Keep Australia Australian) – Already Winning Souls to the Lord!

Dear family & friends in Christ,

The Rise Up Australia prayer movement started in the year 2000 (under the covering of Catch The Fire Ministries) and will continue until the Lord Jesus comes back!

This prayer movement is now operating in around 75-100 bases, with prayer groups meeting every month in churches, community centres, schools, homes, parks, etc., across our nation with thousands of intercessory prayer warriors uniting together as the body of Christ to pray for Australia’s transformation.

Glory to God that this prayer movement, along with many other prayer movements, has further developed an increasingly 24/7 prayer culture in the Body of Christ in Australia.

We thank the Lord, that after a 10 year prayer foundation, He birthed in our hearts to start the Rise Up Australia Political Party in 2010, which is a vehicle through which we could see our nation Australia come back to Jesus, through a national reformation across our Great Southern Land of the Holy Spirit!

Of course the RUA prayer movement will continue to undergird the RUA political party with the wisdom, power and guidance of the Holy Spirit!

When CTFM Board members started prayerfully seeking the Lord’s direction in regard to the political party, one of my Board members who is a practicing medical doctor and a member of the Presbyterian church, received the following prophetic word from the Lord.

Please receive this word with love.

“My Church is in such an apostate state that I cannot reach the nation of Australia through My church right now, so I will cause Rise Up Australia Party to be a vehicle to challenge My Church and the nation of Australia. This will awaken and encourage My Church to rise up, take the nation, and prepare as My Bride for My return.”

Dozens of ‘incubators’ for jihad found in U.S. ‘More than 80% of mosques advocate or promote violence’

June 08, 2011 – By Bob Unruh © 2011 WND

Dozens of mosques around the United States have been identified in a new study as incubators for jihad against America, with more than 80 percent of those surveyed advocating violence.

“Of the 100 mosques surveyed, 51 percent had texts on-site rated as severely advocating violence; 30 percent had texts rated as moderately advocating violence; and 19 percent had no violent texts at all,” said the survey compiled by Mordechai Kedar and David Yerushalmi and published by the Middle East Quarterly.
“How’s this for a wake-up call?” asked Frank Gaffney, chief of the Center for Security Policy in a commentary today in the Washington Times.

Find out what’s planned for you, in “Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld That’s Conspiring to Islamize America,” autographed, from WND’s Superstore.

“America’s most cherished civil liberties and the Constitution that enshrines them are enabling Muslim Brotherhood operatives and other Islamists who have the declared mission of destroying our freedoms and government ‘from within … by [our] hands.’ Specifically, our enemies are using our tolerance of religion to create an infrastructure of mosques here that incubate the Islamic holy war called jihad.”

Let’s thank those who dragged Geert Wilders into court

The German site Politically Incorrect has an excellent commentary on the acquittal of Geert Wilders on Sharia-inspired “hate speech” charges: “A Historic Victory for Freedom!,” by Frank Furter, translated by Anders Denken:

Dear PI Community,

We finally made it! The movement for Islam criticism is celebrating a great, and even historic, victory. Let’s thank those who dragged Geert Wilders into court. Those who were recruited primarily by various Muslim organizations were holding a gun to the heart of the Dutch judiciary. And the judges had to decide which values, which rights and which law was to apply in the Netherlands. Is it that law that is written down in the constitution of their land? Or that law that is gaining entry into the West with the influx of Muslims? They decided for Western law. Anything else would have been scandalous and would have forced the question of whether our Western ideas concerning law and order were only a collection of empty phrases.

The trial against Geert Wilders clearly brought to light just how greatly Western and Islamic values differ from each other. The supporters of multicultural society believe that all cultures lend themselves to combining into a flourishing society of diversity. On the surface, this seems to function where culture overflows in tradition and folklore. However, at the roots of a culture is more than just the question of what one should wear, eat and celebrate, and when, where and how. At their roots, cultures open up to the elementary questions of what one may do and not do, what is permitted and what is forbidden, what is right and what is wrong, what is good and what is evil.

Will the Western World Surrender to the Middle East? – By Pr Daniel Nalliah

London RiotsDear family & friends in Christ across our Nation of Australia and around the World,

Over the past several years, I have been very carefully watching the unfolding events across the world and asking the questions, “Will the Western world surrender to the Middle East and lose its Judeo-Christian Heritage, Freedom of Speech, Democracy, etc. to the political, social, economic, religious and spiritual force of Islam? How long will it be before the West wakes up and realises that if the current trend continues, we could have Islamic Sharia Law dominating parts of the West, as it is already happening in many parts of Europe?”

While watching the media breaking news across the Middle East over the past 6 months or so, in particular PRESS TV NEWS, a channel which comes through satellite and is broadcast from Iran, of the many increasingly spreading revolutions throughout the Middle East, I have heard many Islamic clerics and others in the revolution repeatedly proclaim, “We will take this revolution into Europe.”  Then they went on to call on the youth in Europe to start similar revolutions there.

Over the past week or so, I have been watching the latest developments in the UK on news and noticed that most rioters were youth. Who is behind the current riots in the UK is a question we need to ask? Is it simply because of one young man’s death, or is there a well organised movement coordinating these riots?

Christians ‘not vilified’ by Islamic billboards says Australian Advertising Standards Bureau

Muslim advertising in Sydney, Australia of Jesus as a Prophet of IslamFriday, July 1, 2011  – By Dan Wooding of Founder of ASSIST Ministries

Christians ‘not vilified’ by Islamic billboards says Australian Advertising Standards Bureau
But that doesn’t satisfy one Christian who says that they are ‘a willful abuse of our freedom of speech and democratic values’

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA (ANS) — Proclaiming Jesus to be “a prophet of Islam” on billboards in Australia is a statement of belief and does not discriminate against or vilify Christians, the Advertising Standards Bureau (ASB) there has found.

The row erupted in late May, when signs were placed on billboards in major Sydney roads, specifically chosen for maximum exposure. Organized and privately funded by an Islamic group called “MyPeace” the billboards advertise Muslim beliefs, including a claim that has upset the Christian community – that Jesus, like Mohamed, was a prophet of Islam.
