grace or gunpoint

Are we all actually paying attention to the startling growth and vile practices of Fascist, Violently Forced-Upon-Us Islam? Or are we just content to go about our lives with our behinds up in the air and our heads buried in sand up to our necks? Because the rampant "convert or be killed" tactics employed by these people would seem enough to cause alarms to ring throughout the world. Instead, though, it seems there is a collective YAWN resonating from the masses. What on earth is going on? Who gave these people a pass to torture others and force them to convert to THEIR brand of THEIR religion or die? When did we become so content to turn a blind eye to the truth while creating alternative convenient scapegoats (America, anyone?)out of thin air?

Goodnesssakes. Isn't it about time we all collectively, as a family, neighborhood, state, region, nation, WORLD ~ stand against this clear and present danger to our lives, our children's, our freedom, and Biblical truth?

F.I.B. s not just a series of initials - it is the pressing threat that must be faced. And it is the pressing need that must be met. Beause at the core of the F.I.B.'s heart is a lost, vacant soul in need of truth. And love. And whose vacancy can only be overcome through the power, the grace, and the mercy of the cross. I hereby encourage us to PRAY, to BELIEVE, and to LOVE each of these lost souls who seek conversions to Islam at gunpoint. If we fail at sharing the love of Christ with the world, we have not only failed ourselves and those who will remain lost due to our apathy, we will have failed He from whom all blessings flow. Let us replace gunpoint conversions with Gods abiding grace, while we still can...

Christians love the lost, as Christ loves the lost,and calls them to repentance. We leave it to the Holy Spirit to convict and save lost souls.
Muslims hate the 'lost', consider it their work to convict and condemn 'sinners', and believe that all the world will be at Peace only when they conquer it for Allah. If you meet anyone who thinks that the God of Abraham, Moses and Paul is also Allah, disabuse them of that notion.

It all terrifies me more than I can explain. It also makes me wonder if it's wise for me to bring children into a world such as ours. But then I think that maybe my kid could make this planet better, somehow. And that's what keeps me going.

I am convinced that the social battles and literal warfare we see are like the portion of the iceburg floating above water. The greater part is unseen. From stories of angels being delayed by battles on the way to answer prayer that God had recorded for us to consider, we can know that His warriors are fighting the principalities and forces of evil beyond our senses. That knowledge is both comforting and humbling.
