As the Syrian civil war continues after a failed cease-fire, many Muslims are encountering God, including a mother with confounding dreams that left her in a state of anticipation.
“The woman dreamt repeatedly of a man who told her that three people would come and bring her good news,” according to a ministry director for Christian Aid Mission (CAM).
“She continued to have this dream for six days in a row,” the director told CAM. “On the seventh day, one of our teams was doing home visits and decided to visit a new house.”

At a time when Coptic Christians are suffering abuses “every two or three days” in Egypt, a Muslim woman in America has made a video calling for more Muslim hostility against the Christian minority, in this case, in the guise of an economic boycott.
In a video, Ayat Oraby—a Muslim Brotherhood sympathizer who has nearly 1.5 million followers on Facebook—recently called the Coptic church a “bunch of gangsters,” a “total mafia” that “rules [Egypt] behind the curtains.”
She accuses the Christians of “stockpiling weapons in churches” and “striving to create a Coptic statelet” in order to continue waging “a war against Islam.”

In 2015, the Global Gathering took place in Munich, at the very stadium where Israeli athletes where murdered in the 1972 Olympics. After several days of worship, intercession, prayer and fellowship, the Arab and Jewish brothers and sisters again came up to the stage for a period of prophetic proclamation, repentance and reconciliation.
During that time, the Messianic leadership team sought to honor the Arab leaders.
We realized that this was more than just honoring one another as fellow believers. There is a deep connection between Arabs and Jews, going all the way back to the time of Abraham, our mutual father. We pointed out that Ishmael was circumcised (Gen. 17) before Isaac was even born (Gen. 21). We are bound together by a covenant of almost 4,000 years. Because of this covenant, we have a joint destiny!

An estimated 200 million women will not be celebrating International Day of the Girl Child today, because they are not alive.
They were selectively aborted just because they were girls – victims of “gendercide.”
Son preference runs amok in both China and India; both countries suffer from a vast gender imbalance, which in turn is driving human trafficking and sexual slavery.
Reggie Littlejohn, President of Women’s Rights Without Frontiers, stated “The message of sex-selective abortion is that girls and women do not deserve to live.
The selective elimination of 200 million women demands the passionate outrage of the women’s movement. It should be the number one priority of the international women’s movement.”

“Praise the Lord again and again! We all felt that the Lord Jesus Christ appeared upon the dust storm as a Mighty and Wonderful Man showing His protecting and lovely hands toward us with a sweet smile. Jesus saved us.” -Anonymous new Christian convert who was being hunted down by terrorists.
God created a massive dust storm to deliver Islamic converts [to Christianity] from the militants who hunted them, according to a recent report.
Bibles For Mideast claims the organization had just finished a mass baptism for 50 newly saved Christians when militants surrounded their bus and fired shots.

Cardinal Burke’s line runs directly counter to the rainbows-and-moonbeams Islam of Pope Francis.
He is, apparently, too prominent for Catholic authorities to try to silence, unlike other foes of jihad terror whom the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and individual bishops have worked so assiduously against.
Cardinal Burke must get a chilly reception from his peers when they all get together.
Speaking in an interview with Italian newspaper Il Giornale, Cardinal Raymond Burke accused Westerners of being too weak to acknowledge the incompatibility of Christianity and Islam.

Evil words from a Pakistani Islamic scholar who has “a strong following online” and was scheduled for a speaking tour across Australia.
The good news is that Muhammad Raza Saqib Mustafai’s Australian tour has now been cancelled following the revelation of his monstrous anti-Semitism.
The bad news is that he and other such preachers of hatred and incitement against Jews and other non-Muslims should not be permitted on Western soil at all, but unfortunately they are in our midst.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also said his differences with Obama are not based on personal animosity and only surround issues of Iran and the “settlements,” which, he insists, are wrongly perceived by many as the main obstacle to peace.
“It takes time for truth to come to light. It is not true to say that settlements are the root of the conflict and prevent the achieving of an agreement.
What prevents an agreement is the refusal of the Palestinians to recognize the nation-state of the Jewish people within any borders. That’s the truth.
After all, they had nearly 50 years—from 1920-1967—during which there were no settlements, yet attacks on us continued throughout the whole period. Why? …When we withdrew from Gaza, they continued firing thousands of missiles at us.
Why? If we withdraw to the ’67 borders without their relinquishing the demand for the ‘right of return’ of all refugees and without recognizing the right of the Jewish nation-state to exist, this will continue. That is the root of the conflict.

Despite the conviction and sentencing, however, all five walked out of court free men while their case awaits higher legal review, infuriating Turkish Christians.
Gokhan Talas, close friend of the three slain Christians and witness at the murder scene, said……They need to be in jail right now…This process is unjust. There’s no justice for Christians in this country. This is the proof of that.
How much justice is there for Christians (and other infidels and apostates) in any Muslim country? But Turkey has, of course, long been known as “moderate”; as recently as 2012, Turkey was referenced as a “new model.”
