Devout Muslim Family Turns to the Lord When Their Ailing Mother Sees Jesus and Is Healed

News Staff : Apr 5, 2016 : Bible4MidEast.com

“She said, while he was praying, she saw Jesus Christ and He touched her with His nailed hands. At once, something went away from her body and a light covered her…”

In their own words a Middle Eastern convert to Christianity shares the amazing and miraculous way that Jesus broke into their lives, bringing healing, deliverance and salvation.

As you read, please remember this family in your prayers, for their protection, as they will surely need it.

I am Fadila* (*name changed). I was born and brought up in an Arab family in the Middle East. I was one of the eight children of my father and mother. My father had one more wife. My stepmother also had four children as my brothers and sisters.

She buried 11 children, endured an alcoholic husband, then Jesus spoke to her in dreams

4/4/16 – by Mark Ellis & Katie Kuykendall of God Reports

Selmira was a young teen when she married, older than most of the girls in her Napo Quecha village in Peru.

She had asked if she could wait until she finished primary school before her marriage. She wanted to learn to read first.

Shamanism and alcoholism are widespread in the culture of her village, according to Wycliffe Bible Translators. Alcohol flows freely at gatherings that invoke a multitude of spirits. In many families, heavy drinking leads to violence.

When the men are too drunk to fish or labor in the fields, poverty usually falls upon them like a bandit. Their babies frequently go hungry and are given alcohol to stop their crying and put them to sleep.

Air France stewardesses mutiny over order to wear headscarves

2 April 2016 – The Telegraph

Air France stewardesses, furious at being ordered to wear headscarves in Tehran, say they will refuse to fly to the Iranian capital when the airline resumes the service later this month.

Female members of flight crews have been ordered to cover their hair once they disembark in Tehran and unions are demanding that the flights be made voluntary for women.

The resumption of a thrice-weekly service between Paris and Tehran, planned for April 17 after an eight-year break, follows a thaw in relations since Iran agreed to dismantle large sections of its nuclear programme.

Iranian women have been forced by law to cover their hair or face stiff fines since the 1979 Islamic revolution. In staunchly secular France, however, public signs of religion have been frowned upon since a 1905 law separating church and state.

Dear liberals: Planned Parenthood is leading killer of unarmed black lives

Fri Feb 26, 2016Abortion 2

February 26, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) — Black lives matter. Or so we’re told. The left gets enraged when you put their rhetoric into context.

Nationwide, #BlackLivesMatter leaders decry the tragic deaths of unarmed black lives at the hands of what is sometimes accurately called police brutality. In 2014, there were a total of 444 reported “unarmed deaths” according to the FBI (labeled as “justifiable homicides” with no racial/ethnic specifics).

Yet over 330,000 deaths of unarmed black lives in the womb happen every year due to abortion brutality and this movement embraces the violence as “reproductive justice”.

 

Hamer, who was passionately prolife and an adoptive mother, would hammer today’s racially divisive #BlackLivesMatter movement that willingly supports the most institutionalized form of racism—population control (aka abortion).

In her denial opinion piece, “Dear conservatives: Abortion clinics don’t ‘target’ the black community”, Representative Gwen Moore (D-WI) wants to cry racism because prolifers invoke the #BlackLivesMatter hashtag to expose the movement’s blatant hypocrisy. (The Washington Post refused to publish my factual response to challenge her diatribe of lies.) Pro-life Congressman Sean Duffy (R-WI) rightfully called out the pro-abortion Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) for their silence. But the CBC and other black-led, liberal “civil rights” groups aren’t silent; they’re boldly vocal about their support of the number one killer in the black community. As an award-winning creative professional and citizen journalist, I’ve highlighted this betrayal by organizations like the CBC, the NAACP, (which I unapologetically call the National Association for the Abortion of Colored People), the National Urban League and others in our TooManyAborted.com initiative.

Dr. Mildred Jefferson (1926-2010), the first black woman to graduate from Harvard Medical School and the first woman employed as a surgeon at the Boston University Medical Center, denounced population control and its conduit, Planned Parenthood. She dedicated her life to caring for the sick and speaking globally about abortion’s violation of humanity: “I will not accept the proposition that the doctor should relinquish the role of healer to become the new social executioner. It is unconscionably unfair that the victim selected on which to test this social remedy of expendable lives, is the most defenseless member of the human family–the unborn child who cannot escape, cannot riot in the streets, cannot vote.”

Representative Moore wants to pretend that institutionalized racism isn’t inherent in a billion-dollar abortion empire that regularly celebrates its eugenicist founder. Planned Parenthood, according to its latest Annual Report, killed 323,999 [disproportionately black] human lives via abortion last year. Moore uses Planned Parenthood-funded Guttmacher to defend what is obvious to anyone living in urban America—the majority of abortion centers are located in predominantly black and Hispanic areas. Guttmacher makes the bogus claim (with zero demographic/geographic data) that 1 in 10 abortion centers are located in majority-black neighborhoods. In that same report, however, Guttmacher contradicts itself declaring “abortion services are concentrated in cities”.

Rep. Moore continues to falsify reality: “The inability or outright refusal to recognize the barriers black women encounter in accessing quality prevention services and reproductive care walks the line between sheer blindness and malice.” Black women have abortions at rates 5 times higher than the majority population. They are obviously accessing places that claim to provide prevention services and “reproductive healthcare”. Although, Planned Parenthood’s vital medical services to women have only declined every year in the last 5 years, including breast cancer screenings (down 41.3%), pap tests (down 58.1%) and barely existent pre-natal care (down 53.8%).

Moore also cites a sloppy 5-year “longitudinal study” by the pro-abortion Bixby Center for Global Reproductive Health, referred to as the “Turnaway Study” which can hardly be trusted. This is an organization that boasts that their work has led to: “new abortion methods, an expanded abortion industry workforce, and increased number of trained abortionists.” Their collaborative effort with the University of California resulted in their outrageous claim, and outright lie, that “95% of women who had abortions felt it was the right decision both immediately and over 3 years.” When contacted to join the study, 62.5% of the respondents declined to participate. More dropped off during the process leaving only 31% of the original post-abortive women contacted to participate. Yet these researchers used the non-representative sample to provide false results about poverty and post-abortive regret.

Commercialized abortion isn’t just about women being exploited, victimized, and sometimes even killed. It’s about all three lives involved—mother, child (born and unborn), and father. We have an epidemic of fatherlessness in this country which directly causes increased poverty, higher abortion rates, and other negative outcomes. Communities that are fatherless are perfect prey for an industry that relies on men to abandon their responsibilities and their own posterity. In NYC, home of Planned Parenthood, there are 1,180 abortions for every 1,000 live births in the black community—more aborted than born alive. Compare that to 240 abortions for every 1,000 live births among whites and 610 abortions for every 1,000 Hispanic live births. Abortion apologists like Moore always talk about context, but never give any. Nationwide, Hispanics are uninsured at far higher rates than blacks, 24.4% and 15.9% respectively, yet have lower abortion rates. The poverty level among Hispanics, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, is almost identical to the black community—20.5% versus 22.5%.

How about access to the truth, Ms. Moore? GetYourCare.org is an online, easily searchable, database of over 13,000 comprehensive health clinics that provide far more real healthcare than Planned Propaganda, and without the violence of abortion. Sadly, Moore and her fellow pro-abortion Democrats pretend these thousands of resources don’t exist and legislatively try to shut down thousands more pregnancy help centers that offer real life-affirming care, at no cost, for mother and child.

The only extreme position here is justifying the deaths of those who could one day make history. Ms. Moore’s article is a reminder that many women and men confuse being empowered by being fooled by those in power. There is no dignity in willfully destroying our Future. There is no equality when it’s not extended to the most vulnerable among us. #BlackLivesMatter? #AllLivesMatter? Liberals like Moore show that hashtags are rather meaningless. Human beings, in and out of the womb however, are not.

Hillary Clinton’s War on Whites

Published March 4, 2016

Hillary Clinton is sweeping the Democratic primaries across the South by capturing nearly all the black votes — a staggering 86 percent in South Carolina. She’s doing it with poisonous lies designed to stoke racial resentment.

Clinton routinely tells blacks they are the victims of “systemic racism” and scolds whites for not demonstrating more “humility.” She falsely claims that discrimination is causing higher poverty rates and incarceration rates in the black community. There isn’t a shred of evidence to back up her claims. Even so, she gets a pass from the media.

Let’s separate facts from Clinton’s racially inflammatory fictions:

On the campaign trail, she complains that “race still plays a significant role in determining who gets ahead in America and who gets left behind,” noting black families have “just a tiny fraction” of the wealth of white families.

Cops rescue 9-year-old girl from wedding

04 March 2016 – by Mubasher Bukhari

Lahore – Pakistani police rescued a nine-year-old girl from being married off to a 14-year-old boy to settle a family dispute on Friday and arrested four village elders who had ordered the “compensation wedding”.

The intervention in Pakistan’s largest province, Punjab, is rare in a country where it is often culturally acceptable to use marriage to build and strengthen alliances, settle disputes or pay off debts.

Police arrested all four members of the village council who had decreed that the girl be given in vani, or compensation marriage, to settle a dispute between two families in Rahim Yar Khan district of Punjab province.

“The girl’s brother’s wife died due to some health problems a few weeks ago, and (the wife’s) relatives suspected foul play and accused her family of murder,” deputy superintendent of police Mamoonur Rasheed told Reuters.

Must-read column by Peggy Noonan nails the state of our political culture

Tue Mar 1, 2016 – The PulsePolitics – U.S.

It has become a cliché to say that this year is unlike any previous election in modern history. But elections reflect more than political theater; they draw on the state of the underlying culture, which sets the boundaries of politics. In her column for the Wall Street Journal two weeks ago, former Reagan speechwriter Peggy Noonan perfectly describes the state of the electorate – embattled, harassed, and yes, angry, but angry only because they are finally fighting back:

I close with a thought about an aspect of modern leftism that is part of the context here.

There is something increasingly unappeasable in the Left. This is something conservatives and others have come to fear, that progressives now accept no limits. We can’t just have court-ordered legalized abortion across the land, we have to have it up to the point of birth, and taxpayers have to pay for it. It’s not enough to win same-sex marriage, you’ve got to personally approve of it and if you publicly resist you’ll be ruined.
