THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS MODERATE ISLAM!!!
New post on Now The End Begins
The Qur’an Proves There Is No Such Thing As Moderate Islam Or Moderate Muslims
by Geri UngureanWhy do the 'moderate Muslims' never speak out against radical Islam?
For many, this article will be eye-opening to say the least. We have all heard of Christians in name only. Moderate Muslims are Muslims in name only, and they are hated by those who are true to the Qur’an and to their prophet, Muhammad.Islam is a totalitarian ideology, cloaked in robes of religion to present itself as honorable to an unsuspecting world. We have heard imams (Muslim clerics) who describe Islam as: “The Religion of Peace.” Islam is in truth a demonically influenced regime of warlords, whose goal is world dominance.The word Islam means submission. In this article I will take passages straight from the Qur’an which clearly show that Islam has nothing to do with peace. It has everything to do with beheading, raping, pillaging, and dominating the entire world. To those who practice Islam and are jihadists (the Qur’an commands this) their god Allah promises great rewards awaiting those who give their lives while fighting infidels.Who are the infidels? This term means anyone who does not believe the words of their prophet, Muhammad. In fact, the Muslims in name only are hated by the Muslims who are obedient to the words in the Qur’an. Are you beginning to understand why the so-called moderate Muslims do not speak out against the terror? They are fearful for their own lives!Here is an example of a command from their false god:Quran (2:191-193) - “And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [disbelief] is worse than killing...but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah [disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah] and worship is for Allah alone. But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun [the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.].”Muslim jihadists must obey the words of their book. They fear for their own lives if they do not live as terrorists, because Allah has told them in their book that they should be killed for not obeying. In fact, doubting Allah in the mind of a Muslim is terrible thing. We wonder how they can be so brutal and merciless. It’s because they must show their god that they believe him, and that they will bring terror against all infidels and slay them if they do not convert to Islam.Quran (2:216) - “Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not.” (Here we see Allah proclaiming to his subjects that violence is virtuous. It even states that some may find it repulsive, but they must know that their god knows what is good for them.)I believe that Allah is actually Satan. He fights primarily against Jews and Christians. He commands submission from his followers. Jesus is spoken of in the Qur’an, but it’s not the Jesus we know from the Word of God. Jesus - called Isa, is merely a prophet. It is emphasized that He is not the Son of God. On the roof of the mosque on the Temple Mount are inscribed these Arabic words: “God has no son.” That sounds demonic to me.Quran (3:56) - “As to those who reject faith, I will punish them with terrible agony in this world and in the Hereafter, nor will they have anyone to help.”Quran (3:151) - “Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers, for that they joined companions with Allah, for which He had sent no authority". (This speaks of Christians, who say that “God has a Son” is joining companions with Allah).Quran (4:74) - “Let those fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward.” (Unlike early Christian who were led meekly to their slaughter, Muslims are killed in battle for the cause of Allah. This is the basis for today’s suicide bombers.)Quran (4:95) - “Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and receive no hurt, and those who strive and fight in the cause of Allah with their goods and their persons. Allah hath granted a grade higher to those who strive and fight with their goods and persons than to those who sit (at home). Unto all (in Faith) Hath Allah promised good: But those who strive and fight Hath He distinguished above those who sit (at home) by a special reward.” (Here we see Allah stressing that the jihadists will be rewarded, but not those who do not fight for the cause.)Quran (8:12) - “I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them" These words are clear, and commentary here would be redundant. “Quran (8:57) - “If thou comest on them in the war, deal with them so as to strike fear in those who are behind them, that haply they may remember." I am reminded of the videos with beheadings that are posted for all to see. They love to put fear in the hearts of all infidels. “Quran (9:5) - “So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captive and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, leave their way free to them.” (Clearly, these words show that the only way to escape death is to convert to Islam.)Quran (9:29) - “Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.” (People of the Book refers to Christians and Jews.)Now you have seen a sampling from the Qur’an of the terror that is commanded by its words. Religion of Peace? Hardly - more like the Third Reich, meeting in mosques worldwide, and planning the demise of all who will not convert.So why do we not hear what the Qur’an really says on the news?Why do politicians avoid what is stated in black and white on the pages of this terrifying book? I can only guess that some refuse to believe that a religion could actually be so violent as the jihadists are. They have their heads in the sand, believing that the ones beheading and raping must be a radical faction of the religion of peace. Perhaps others are just plain scared.Here is a paragraph from President George W. Bush’s commencement address to the Air Force Academy, on 3 June 2004, illustrating the New World Order's plan to disguise the real nature of Islam:"History is once again witnessing a great clash. This is not a clash of civilizations. The civilization of Islam, with its humane traditions of learning and tolerance, has no place for this violent sect of killers and aspiring tyrants. This is not a clash of religions. The faith of Islam teaches moral responsibility that ennobles men and women, and forbids the shedding of innocent blood. Instead, this is a clash of political visions."read sourceThis is another reason that I believe that Allah and Satan are one and the same. The deception is so blatant and so complete—only the enemy of God could pull this off. Some believe that Islam is in fact demonically influenced, but that Allah is not Satan. Be assured, that I am not saying that the Antichrist will be Islam. I believe that Satan manifests himself in many ways.Now when you are watching the news and you hear someone speaking about the “radical jihadist” faction of Islam, you will know the truth.I doubt that you will ever hear the phrase “Religion of Peace” ascribed to Islam, and not think back on the passages you’ve read here from the Qur’an.COME LORD JESUS!Blessings in Yeshua.

MORE REPORTS OF MUSLIM PERSECUTION OF CHRISTIANS BY THE IMPRESSIVE RAYMOND IBRAHIM.
Christians and Churches Attacked in the West: Muslim Persecution of Christians, September 2014 |
Gatestone Institute
The Muslim persecution of Christians in September made prominent appearances not just in the Islamic world, but also in the West—in America, Australia and Europe.
In the United States, in Columbus, Indiana, three churches were vandalized on the same night. The words most frequently sprayed were “Infidels!” and “Koran 3:151.” The verse from the Koran states, “We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve [or "infidels"] for what they have associated with Allah [reference to Christian Trinity] of which He had not sent down [any] authority. And their refuge will be the Fire, and wretched is the residence of the wrongdoers.”
Father Doug Marcotte of Saint Bartholomew’s Catholic Church, one of those vandalized, said, “There’s a lot of bad stuff being done in the name of Allah and so when people see this happening in Columbus, whether that was truly the person’s intent or there’s something else going on, it makes people nervous. It makes people upset. It makes them scared.”
Meanwhile, in Australia, AAP reported that “Church-goers in Sydney’s west have been left shaken after a stranger shouted death threats from a car bearing the Islamic State flag. The car drove past Our Lady of Lebanon Church at Harris Park on Tuesday and witnesses claim it had a flag similar to those brandished by Islamic State jihadists hanging out the window.” A church official said the people in the car threatened to “kill the Christians” and slaughter their children: “They were strong words and people were scared of what they saw.” Witnesses saw a flag outside the window with the words, “There is only one god and Muhammad is the prophet.” And as happens frequently in Muslim-majority nations, police security was later dispatched to patrol the Harris Park church while hundreds partook of mass inside.
In Denmark—2013′s “happiest country in the world“—Christians of Middle Eastern backgrounds continued to experience “harassment, verbal attacks and in some cases direct violence from Muslims,” reports TV2, especially in Muslim-majority areas, such as Nørrebro. One Christian, “Jojo,” born in Denmark of Lebanese parents, shared her experiences. Once when sitting in her parked car, several Muslims surrounded it, harassing her about her Western attire. When one of them noticed she was wearing a cross, he said “Well, you have a cross on—then you are also a Christian f*ing whore. Do you know what we do to people like you? Do you know what we do to people like you? You get stoned [to death].”
Another Christian woman of Iranian background recounted how she and her son are harassed on the Muslim-majority block where they live—and where she stands out for not wearing a hijab, the Islamic veil: “My son is being called everything. I get called all sorts of things. Infidel. Filthy Christians. They tell me I ought to be stoned to death. My son was beaten at the bus stop. He was called pig, dirty potato (Muslim slang for Danes), and that ‘you and your mother should die.”‘
Islamic dreams of conquering Europe were prevalent. A senior analyst in Spain warned that, because Islamists see the Iberian peninsula as being “under Spanish and Portuguese occupation,” greater risk of terrorism exists there than in other Western areas. Because Iberia—or, in Arabic, Al-Andalus—was under Islamic domination for centuries, many Muslims consider it part of the Islamic world, or Dar al-Islam, which needs to be reconquered, no less than Israel, also seen as occupied Islamic territory.
More pointedly, in the Islamic State [IS], in a lengthy message partially addressed to the “crusaders”—a reference to the West—some members declared, “We will conquer your Rome, break your crosses, and enslave your women, by the permission of Allah.” Members of the IS also invoked a statement attributed to Muhammad, that Constantinople would be conquered before Rome—and it was, in 1453. The implication is that the Eternal City of Rome is next.
Around the same time, Rome responded by rejecting a motion to name a street after the late Oriana Fallaci, a veteran journalist who had once written that, “the Muslim world is attempting to conquer the West in the name of Islam.” In explaining their decision, local politicians described Fallaci’s writings as containing “religious hatred,” or “Islamophobia.”
In Canada, while 80 special Muslims went to the trouble of attending a Muslim rally on behalf of persecuted Christians, another rally, an extremist Al Quds Day Anti-Israel Hate Fest, drew approximately 6,000 participants.
The rest of September’s roundup of Muslim persecution of Christians around the world includes (but is not limited to) the following accounts, listed by theme and country alphabetical order, not necessarily according to severity.

ISIS ARE MORE DANGEROUS THAN MOST PEOPLE THINK!!
ISIS More Dangerous Than People Realize
There is an interesting report, and video, on CNN by reporter Juergen Todenhoefer, about the progress ISIS is making in the Middle East. You can see it here
One startling fact, which I was not previously aware of, is that ISIS took Mosul, the second largest city in Iraq, with 300 fighters, against 20,000 of the Iraqi military!
For those familiar with the bible, this is a battle of biblical proportions! This is reminiscent of Gideon’s battle against the Midianites, and Amalekites, with 300 men versus their 120,000!
No doubt ISIS will, and does, make the claim that their God (Allah) is with them and gave them the victory! No doubt that this is why Muslims from all over the world are flocking to the Islamic State. They really believe that their god is going to give them the victory.
To all intents and purposes, it does appear that they are correct! How else could 300 men defeat a city of well over one million inhabitants, and protected by 20,000 well-armed troops?
Certainly people without an ideology are not motivated to risk their lives for a cause they don’t believe in. No doubt this is much of the reason why the Iraqi army fled so quickly. No doubt that many of the Sunni Muslims in the Iraqi army actually sympathize with ISIS, and really have no desire to fight them, but is God on their side?
Well, there actually is another possibility;
It is actually more probable that the God of the bible is allowing Satan to give ISIS the victory, in order to set them up for a great fall! I say God is “allowing Satan”, but in fact it just might be the Lord’s will that this is the time when Islam begins to fulfil biblical prophecy of the End Times! Satan, in spite of all his machinations against God, always ends up furthering God’s plan!
It remains to be seen, but it sure looks like the confederacy of the Psalm 83 war is starting to come together. If this is that confederacy, they will have victory after victory, until they go up against Israel. Then God will grant the psalmist’s prayer.
As I am sure you have seen on TV, or the Internet, ISIS makes a big public spectacle of their beheadings, as a means of psychological warfare, and of striking their enemies with fear.
In the light of their frequent use of beheadings, I find it interesting that the Psalm references the Gideon’s capture of the leaders of Israel’s enemies;
Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna: Psalm 83:11
Oreb and Zeeb were two Midianite kings who were beheaded, and their heads brought across the Jordan river, to Gideon. Zebah and Zalmunna were Amalekite kings who were also slain by Gideon. You can read about it in Judges 7 and 8.
Could it be that the leaders of ISIS have the same fate awaiting them, as they have done to so many of their captives?
Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword (Matthew 26:52)

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 2000 YEARS, PURE OLIVE OIL FOR TEMPLE USE HAS BEEN PRODUCED!!
New post on Now The End Begins
Temple Institute Produces Pure Olive Oil For Use In Third Jewish Temple (VIDEO)
by NTEB News DeskFirst time in 2,000 years that pure olive oil for Temple use has been produced
"Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure oil olivebeaten for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually." Leviticus 24:2For the past 30 years, the Temple Institute in Jerusalem, Israel, has been on a prophetic mission to prepare the world for the creation of the Third Jewish Temple. They have worked diligently to create, according to strict Levitical law, the garments, furniture, and instruments of worship that will be needed. Today, NTEB sources in Israel have received word that the pure olive oil required for the burning of the Temple lamps has been produced and is being stored in Jerusalem in anticipation of use in the coming Temple.The Temple Institute in Jerusalem produced, for the first time in 2000 years, the first flask of pure olive oil fit for use in the Temple’s Menorah.150 kg of organic olives from the Golan Heights were used to make 4 1/2 liters of olive oil, which were produced under special conditions to maintain their ritual purity and then stored in clay flasks specially made for the oil.Brothers and sisters, we are living in momentous days of prophecy! The Third Jewish Temple, which must be in place after the Rapture and during the time of Jacob's Trouble, otherwise known as the Great Tribulation, is soon to come on the world stage. Daniel the prophet, in 9:27, clearly shows that the rebuilt Jewish Temple is in place when the Abomination of Desolation enters it and will defile it."And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate." Daniel 9:27As the Age of Grace, the Church Age dispensation, comes to a close, an unsaved world is preparing itself to go through it's absolute darkest hour. It will be a time of violence, tragedy and wickedness such as this world has never seen. But there is still time to get in the ark, there is still time to accept the forgiveness of sins made possible by shed blood of the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world - Yeshua Ha'Masciach."Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth." Revelation 3:10

"THE SLAIN NYPD OFFICER WAS "A MAN OF GOD" BY JOHN McTERNAN.
Slain NYPD Officer: ‘man of God’
Revelation 14:13
And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
Commentary
This is really difficult as a police chaplain. I was a federal agent for 26 years and retired in 1998. I am originally from Long Island, NY and one of the original founders of International Cops For Christ. The Long Island chapter was separate from the New York City one, which was known as Cops for Christ.
We had many cops from the NYPD who use to fellowship with us. We held preaching events together. I left NY in 1986 and lost contact with the NY chapter, but if I was still in NY there was a good chance I would have known this officer. He was truly one of the NYPDs finest.
With the rise of Islam and the Hard Left, there is much more bloodshed coming to America. The church failed to repent and cry out to the LORD.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
“One of the police officers killed while in his New York Police Department cruiser was a devoutly religious man who saw his police work as a form of ministry.Rafael Ramos, who had recently turned 40 and had been a school resource officer, joined the NYPD three years ago because he wanted to serve his community. The day he was killed he was supposed to graduate from a chaplaincy program so he could go into full-time ministry after retirement.“Ralph Ramos was a family man that loved his wife and his sons. You couldn’t have a conversation without them coming up,” Pastor Michael Durso, of the Christ Tabernacle Church in Queens told Fox News Latino on Monday. “He loved volunteering at the church. His smile was infectious and … he would make you feel at home. We are really going to miss him.”He said one of the biggest messages they have is to encourage parishioners to find ways to express their faith in their vocations and it was something Ramos did all the time.“He was not just a churchgoer. He lived out his faith while he worked,” Durso said. “This was a guy who loved his family, loved his city and loved his church. The city lost a great guy.”Ramos’ cousin Ronnie echoed the pastor’s words, telling the Wall Street Journal: “My cousin had a couple of priorities in his life. One was God, because he was a God-loving man. I wish I could be half the man my cousin was. He was sweet. He didn’t deserve … to die.”Ramos was shot in the head at point-blank range on Saturday along with his partner, Officer Wenjian Liu, 32. Police said Ismaaiyl Brinsley killed them after venting online about wanting to kill two cops in revenge for the police-involved deaths of Eric Garner and Michael Brown.“I know when he was out there he was doing his job as a police officer and also as a religious man,” said Jose Rodriguez, president of the NYPD’s 75th precinct who was a personal friend of Ramos, according to the New York Post. “His family is very hurt.”Rodriguez said Ramos went into police work because he loved helping others.“[Ramos] was in the community. He was a community guy. He’d go to the church with his family. He’d go to the pizzeria. A regular father,” Rodriguez said. “(Helping others) that was his passion; that’s what he loved doing.”The killing came at a time of rising tensions between police and the community following the chokehold death of Garner and the killing of Brown in Missouri.Friends and family said Ramos wanted to end the hostility between police and the communities he served through his love for God.“He wanted to be a different kind of cop. He wanted to talk about God, put God on the street, bring something more to the uniform,” said Jose Ortiz, a retired cop who heads security at the Christ Tabernacle Church in Queens where Ramos had been a member for 14 years, according to the New York Daily News.
In fact, the Ramos family said their religious beliefs helped them find compassion following the cold-blooded killing.“We don’t blame [Brinsley],” Ramos’ cousin, Richard Gonzalez, said. “The Ramos family forgives him. I know if Rafael was here, and it was the opposite, (he) would say the same words.”Ramos’ youngest son, Jaden, who is 13, was effusive in describing his father on Facebook, calling him the best dad “I could ask.”“Today I had to say bye to my father,” he wrote on Saturday. “He was there for me every day of my life, he was the best father I could ask. It’s horrible that someone gets shot dead just for being a police officer. Everyone says they hate cops but they are the people that they call for help. I will always love you and I will never forget you. RIP Dad.”On Monday, the charity founded by the late New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner announced it would be setting aside $40,000 for the education of Ramos’ two sons.Maine’s Bowdoin College, where Ramos’ oldest one, Justin, was a student, announced on Monday that it was going to cover his education costs.The college in Brunswick tweeted on Monday that it will provide “full financial aid to enable the son of slain NYPD officer to complete his Bowdoin education.”Durso said members of the church have been with the family to help them through this difficult time.“We are standing with them. This is a very, very difficult time for Maritza and the boys,” he said.
