False Prophet T.D Jakes aligns with New Age Oprah and other Anti Christ By Minister Speed

The Guru: T.D. Jakes says, “Belief in God Is Not Enough,” You Must Believe in “Yourself”!!! 

 Minister Speed: T.D Jakes once dubbed the next Billy Graham was for some time known for his extraordinary and fiery sermon where he attracted crowds by the thousands. Sadly to say in recent years he has walked away from that faith and through his own words and images aligned himself to those who openly profess that Christ is “dead” and “not the only way to God.” 

I judge not by appearances of course, but we have been asked by the Word of God, therefore God Himself to judge and to test every spirit once we have removed the beam out of our own eyes.

John 7:24, Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

1 John 4:1 “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world”. 

 God also has warned us in His word in 2 Corinthians 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness? 

 The sad truth is this prosperity preacher is leading many away from the truth which is in Gods’ Holy Scripture and therefore leading many to damnation.  See video Clip of Oprah denying Jesus Christ before millions, and also stating He is not the only way to God. Please note that Jesus said in John 14:6 - Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." 

 The Bishop now embraces Yoga, he has ministered with Eckhart Tolle, Deepak Chopra, Oprah Winfrey and other New Age (life coach) spiritualist. We already know he walks with folks who don’t agree with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. But he now suggests that trusting and believing God is not enough. So I assume we have to lean on our understanding and believe in ourselves. 

Exposing False Prophets and End Time News

The bible is very clear concerning “ourselves” John 15:5 said, “I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” Then in Matthew 16:24-25 Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” 

Paul told us in Phil. 3:3 “For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.” He also said in Roman 7:18 KJV “For I know, that in me (that is, in my flesh) dwelleth no good thing. For to will is present with me: but how to perform that which is good, I find not.” 

 You see my brothers and sisters if you understand English you will realize that the saying “believe in yourself” is more than a statement of self confidence but a belief or faith, In other words, a religious statement.It is disguised as a statement of self confidence so that it is accepted globally as a means to liberate people from low self confidence but ultimately when the whole world has accepted it, it will be totally exposed as an Antichrist religious statement. This has also been disguised in globally popular talk shows such as Oprah as “the triumph of human spirit” , sang by R Kelly in "I believe I can fly", expressed by Whitney Huston in "The greatest love of all" and popularized in a South African youth program called "love life" and many other motivational books. 

WE did not make ourselves for our own purpose or glory. A human being’s full potential can only be realized when He connects with the Heavenly Father, God, maker of mankind who knows every part of their being. Even if hypothetically speaking we were to supposedly say the statement, “believe in yourself” was about self confidence, true Christianity does not promote self confidence but GOD confidence. Meaning you must have confidence yes great confidence in that Christ is with you and THROUGH HIM and HIS power within you greatness can be achieved. Through you God can do great things.In these last days Christians need to be very careful as the bible tells us that even the very elect may be deceived.

If you are a believer and follower of Christ here are a few verses that can help you overcome this doctrine and spirit of Antichrist. 

Genesis 1:26 And God said let us make man in our own image he shall be like us…
Your original design was not designed to be yourself but be like God take after God, empowered by God, live by God, inspired by God directed by God connected to God. Jesus explains this meaning and relationship when he said in John 15:5-I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 

 Genesis 40:8 - We both had dreams,” they answered, “but there is no one to interpret them.” Then Joseph said to them, “Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell me your dreams. 

 Genesis 41:16-“I cannot do it,” Joseph replied to Pharaoh, “but God will give Pharaoh the answer he desires.” 

 Genesis 48:19-They are the sons God has given me here,” Joseph said to his father. Then Israel said, “Bring them to me so I may bless them. 

 Philippians 4:13-I can do all things through Christ who empowers me. John 15:15-“I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing” –JESUS 

 NEHEMIAH 8:10-The Joy of the Lord is my strength. 

 PSALM 28:7-The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song. 

 PROVERBS 3:5-6-Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your understanding. In all your ways acknowledge HIM and HE shall direct your path. 

 Hebrews 10:35-Cast not away your confidence in CHRIST in which there is great rewards. 

 EPHESIANS 6:10-Finally brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 

 GALATIANS 5: 10-I am confident IN THE LORD that you will take no other view…. Paul trusted that God will help Galatians to take no other view, he did not put trust in them. 

 Ephesians 3:20-Now to him who is able to do exceedingly and abundantly beyond all  that we could ask or think, according to his power that is at work within us. With God and Through God you will do things you would have never imagined. 

 JAMES 4:13-Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.” 14 Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapour that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. 15 Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.” 16 But as it is, you boast in your arrogance; all such boasting is evil. 

 GALATIANS 2:20-I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 

MARK 11:22-Have faith IN GOD. (NOT IN YOURSELF). JOHN 12:44-Then Jesus cried out, “When a man believes in me, he does not believe in me only, but in the one who sent me. 

 Phillipians 2:13-For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him. 

 So what did T.D. Jakes say? 

 T.D. Jakes to Women: Belief in God and Oneself Are Critical 
By Alex Murashko, Christian Post Reporter 

 Before a crowd of 25,000 women at Phillips Arena in Atlanta, Bishop T.D. Jakes opened up the first day of his annual “Woman, Thou Art Loosed!” conference by saying that it is important that a faith in God be coupled with a belief in oneself. “There are two aspects of faith that are critical for you to make it through this world,” said Jakes, who is the lead pastor of the 30,000-member The Potter’s House in Dallas. “Number one, you have to believe in God. If you don’t believe in God there are some things for which there is no answer, no rationale, and no comfort. 

People will become sort of being what you need when you need it. You will spend the rest of your life searching through people who are just as broken as you are trying how to get it together. You must believe in God. “But I’m going to tell you something tonight. Believing in God is not enough because I also want to remind you that the Bible said the demons believe and tremble. The second area of belief is critical and this is an area where even Christian believers are often attacked,” he continued. “We do good in believing in God. Some of us were raised believing in God and if you got that part real good the enemy comes along and tries to destroy the ability to believe in yourself. He will show you all kinds of reasons to make you think that you don’t have it … He is always throwing up something in your face to get you not to believe in yourself.” 

The three-day conference that began on Thursday is also a celebration of the 20th anniversary of the book Woman, Thou Art Loosed! written by Jakes. The main sessions are being livestreamed on the WTAL official website. Turning from what he says are the devil’s plans to “destroy the ability to believe in oneself,” Jakes then explained the part of the spiritual equation that includes the individual by emphasizing “I” in a well- known Bible verse. Let me back that up with the Bible. Paul said, ‘I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me,’ (Editors notes: So if believing in God is not enough, then how can you do anything in Christ?

When it comes to the gospel you don’t believe in yourself! ) Jakes exalted the women, many standing and receiving his message with arms raised. The event features discussion on women’s role in society and “how they can use their strengths, gifts and abilities to overcome any obstacle to transform their lives in a positive and exciting way,” according to organizers. 

Paula White, pastor of New Destiny Christian Center in Apopka, Fla., spoke to the crowd shortly before Jake’s sermon, praying for the release from financial bondage for those in attendance and encouraging people to give money during the evening’s offering. Other prominent church speakers planned for the event include Jakes’ wife, First Lady Serita Jakes, Pastor Sheryl Brady, the campus pastor of The Potter’s House of North Dallas, and best-selling author and speaker Dr. Cindy Trimm of Trimm International. 

In his book, Woman, Thou Art Loosed! Jakes writes about difficult experiences women go through, including trauma, abuse, distress, but says there is a solution for every trouble. T.D. Jakes also has a role in the 2004 movie of the same name based on his book. Musical guests for the Atlanta conference are Grammy Award winner Ann Nesby, Joy Hill, Gaye Arbuckle and “The Woman Thou Art Loosed” Praise Team. Additionally, the winner of the next big gospel music star contest on Facebook organized by Jakes was given the opportunity to perform before the audience at the conference. 

Oprah's New Spiritual Mystic John of "God

 He states he becomes possessed by spirit entities.

No mention of Jesus Ever!!!!

Oprah's Life Class teaches A New Gospel

Do you really understand what Oprah, Deepak Chopra, Eckhart Tolle really represent to The Christian Faith?  Please keep an open mind and begin to research for yourself because T.D Jakes alignment with them represent a moving away from Holy Scriptures with no mentioning of Jesus Christ, being filled with the Holy Spirit or anything that represent the Worldview of Christianity. 

They do not believe that Jesus is the Son of God, that He died for our sin, that Satan is real, or any tenets of Christianity.  

In closing I'd like to say at least the women are being loose. The conference started with 90,000 women and now it’s down to 25,000. Praise God!

2 Corinthians 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness?

Christians, The Anti-Christ, and America By Minister Speed

I'm so glad that President Obama has awakened White Christian America up to "certain" truth.  These truths have been there since the beginning and I believe Obama is one of Anti Christ who is just the continuation of all his predecessors.  Christians, can you tell me the most RACIST day of the week.  That's right SUNDAY.

 Legislature is not where our power lie.  We are the church and it's time to come together.  Yes we know that prophecies are running its course but that brings us only temporary comfort because we are to help "Reap the Harvest" In season and out of season meaning In opportune time and Un opportune time.  I don't selfishly sit back and get contentment from my Salvation only. 

The mark of the beast is in the right hand, and forehead.  This can be seen in a witness (raise your right hand) and who you follow or has control of your mind (forehead). Before this happens trust me you will see implants, Lo jack in phones, bracelets on children, Healthcare provision (implants) for those first with no healthcare.  It's already being implemented in most cattle, cell phone, automobiles, but these are just precursors to a completely new system of government in which the majority of people will be living in a slave indebted system with a one world monetary system, a one world religious system, and a one world leader. 

Trust me we are already there.  Obama pretty much has been given the acceleration button and done more in 4 years than all 43 POTUS before him but trust me that all 43 are and were just as wicked as he is and he is just continuing their agenda.   Thank God he was black because he brought out the truth in certain people.  Maybe if the system was fair black folk would have no reason to rally around a fool.

Last but not least many Christian state " I will not be taken any chips or Mark of the beast."  Listen this is what that means.  They may kill your child in front of you and ask you to recant Christ.  No mortgage/no home, no insurance of any kind, no car, bus pass or any mode of transportation, no registration for anything, no buying food without the mark, no bank accounts or accounts of any kind, no schools for kids private or public, no college without the mark, no cable T.V, internet, or phone calls, no gasoline, no buying of anything out of any stores of any kind. 

If the Holy Spirit doesn't encapsulate and protect you then you will comply and you will take the mark of the beast because you will see nothing wrong with it.  Also know we are close to a lot of these measures being taken right now in America and around the world. Most of them with Christian’s permission.

If you were born in the 50 and 60"s then In the next 10 years you won't know America from when you grew up. Many Christians will also find out they are not and have never been Christians. 

BETTER CHECK YOUR POWER SOURCE AND GET READY!!!

Key Scripture - Revelation 13:16 - 18 - Also "it" causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.

Israel, Islam, and End Time Prophecy By Minister Speed

In a number of my articles which deal with the subject of End time prophecies I explain that unlike quite a few Christian theologians and Bible students who anticipate the rise of the kingdom of the Beast -- and the Ten Horns who temporarily support him -- in Europe and Russia, over the years I have pondered the possibility that these End time events may actually revolve around the country of Israel, and Ten Arab/Muslim nations who will temporarily give their power and allegiance to the devilish global leader who the Bible refers to as the Beast. These events are described for us in verses such as the following:

"After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns . . . And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows . . . And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings." Daniel 7:3-7

"And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads." Revelation 12:3, KJV

"And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy."  Revelation 13:1, KJV

"So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns . . . And the angel said unto me, wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns . . . And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast . . . And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire."  Revelation 17:3, 7, 12, 16, KJV

The fact that I currently embrace this theological position does not mean that I have totally rejected possible Russian involvement; after all, even now the Arab states are divided in their loyalties between Russia and the United States of America. Both nations -- the USA and Russia -- have long-term interests in the affairs of the nations of the Middle East, as is clearly evidenced by American involvement in Iraq, and Russia's current involvement with Iran.   In my articles, I've also posited that the False Prophet -- who is mentioned in Revelation chapter thirteen and elsewhere -- may possibly be a religious leader who will stir up the masses in support of the Beast. If -- as I speculate -- the rise of the Beast and the Ten Horns is indeed a more localized event which centers around the nation of Israel, then it seems only natural to assume that Islam may be the religion of the False Prophet, and not Roman Catholicism as some theologians have proposed.  

If you pay close attention to the news, particularly to news which details events that involve Israel, the Arab nations of the Middle East, and Iran -- Iran is not Arab, it is Persian -- then you may realize that the volatile political situation in that area of the world may possibly reach a boiling point in the not-too-distant future. Consider the following facts:

The Palestinians have been fighting for their own state for decades now; and yet, they don't seem to be that much closer to their dream of achieving it. The Jews keep stalling with more words, military incursions and settlements expansion, while the Palestinians occasionally lob rockets into Israel out of frustration, and Hamas and Fatah each continue to try to win the hearts of the Palestinian people. At least the suicide bombers have been at bay for a while now.

Turning to the nation of Iraq, despite the more than nine years of occupation by the United States, that nation still hasn't overcome its internal problems. At this current time, despite the fact that parliamentary elections were held in March of 2010, the Iraqi leadership remains both divided and corrupt, and a new government has yet to be formed. Lethal violence is likewise still very much the norm, even in the capital city of Baghdad. Utility services such as electricity and water still remain at substandard levels -- even in Baghdad -- and one must wonder what the USA has been doing there all these years. It simply doesn't take that long to restore everything that was destroyed during the illegal American invasions more than nine years ago. 

Meanwhile, in the neighboring country of Iran, assisted by Russia, the Iranians are finally initiating the process to fire up their first nuclear reactor; a reactor which the USA adamantly claims may ultimately be used to produce nuclear weapons grade fuel. Israeli and American political figures -- and the mass media -- have been continuously filling our ears with anti-Iranian banter, and rumors of an impending Israeli military strike has been on the lips of many for months now. The latest word from that who are supposedly “in-the-know”, is that Iran will supposedly have its first nuclear weapon within about a year, and UN sanctions have proven to be an ineffective tool of persuasion.

But we must ask ourselves: Is this simply more psychological manipulation of the masses by the powers-that-be? I am again reminded of the constant campaign of fear and intimidation that was strongly promoted during the eight long years of the Bush administration. Let's not forget George W. Bush's misguided "mushroom cloud" remark, which ultimately led to the illegal invasion and war to supposedly find and destroy WMD in Iraq. If you want a perfect example of government deception and manipulation, which clearly demonstrates how easily the American public can be hoodwinked, just consider the years 2000 to 2008. Bush promised to get Osama bin Laden dead or alive. He also promised to find those elusive WMD in Iraq. Bush is no longer in office. The WMD were never found. Osama bin Laden is now dead, but this did not occur during George W. Bush's watch. The American public has for the most part forgotten about it all, even though the USA -- and the world -- continue to pay for Bush's deception and mistakes.

Of course, the previous paragraphs describe just a few of the more volatile situations in the Middle East which have been highlighted by the news media. There are other problems that don't make the news as often, such as the constant squabbles over water rights, which will only continue to grow worse as the region of the Middle East slowly dries up. As I point out in other articles, the Book of Revelation informs us that one of these days, the Euphrates River -- which is an important water source for Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran -- will dry up, as we see here:

"Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates . . . And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared."

Revelation 9:14, 16:12, KJV

So the point is, there are a number of hot issues and hot spots in the Middle East which could explode at a moment's notice; and ultimately, some of them will; and in my view, they may very well be catalysts for the final events of the End time, as they are described for us in the pages of the Bible -- events which may center around Islam -- the faith originated by and promoted by Muhammad.

Considering the relative closeness of these End time events, and the Great Tribulation in particular, which will involve the slaughter of possibly millions of people who believe in the Holy Scriptures, I feel that it is important for us to try to understand what will motivate these Arab and Muslim nations to commit such atrocities in the name of their god Allah. Of course, I say this based on a Futurist -- and not a Preterist -- point of view; meaning that I believe that the Great Tribulation isn't a historical event that occurred during the First Century; rather, it is a future event that will transpire after the Holy Covenant -- which is possibly the coming peace agreement between the Palestinians and the Israelis -- is broken. Furthermore, as I point out in my blog "Tribulation and the Church; 

I embrace a Mid-Tribulation Rapture point of view. Finally, as I noted earlier, this series is based on the belief that the Beast and the False Prophet will embrace the Muslim religion.

Regarding the manner in which Christian Believers are going to be slaughtered once these events begin to occur, we will be discussing it later on in this series. What I find tragic about this future scenario, is that according to the Bible, thousands of years ago, Abraham's second wife -- Hagar the Egyptian -- and her son Ishmael, appear to have worshipped the same God as Abraham and Sarah. Consider the following incident that occurred after Hagar had fled from Sarai, or Sarah, her mistress:

"And the angel of the LORD found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur. And he said, Hagar, Sarai's maid, whence camest thou? And whither wilt thou go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai. And the angels of the LORD said unto her, Return to thy mistress, and submit thyself under her hands. And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude. And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction."  Genesis 16:7-11, KJV

As I note in the previous articles, Ishmael -- who was Abraham's first son by Hagar --became the progenitor of the Twelve Princes of the Arab nations. However, it would be Isaac -- who was the seed of faith who was born to Abraham and Sarah in their old age -- who would receive the inheritance of the Lord, as we can determine by the following verses:

"And God said Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant and with his seed after him. And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year."  Genesis 17:19-21, KJV

"Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bare unto Abraham: And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam, And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa, Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah: These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations."   Genesis 25:12-16, KJV

Based on the previous Scriptural evidence of Hagar's apparent devotion to the God of Abraham, her husband, God's blessings upon her and her son Ishmael, and upon Ishmael's descendants, and my personal study of the Muslim holy book, the Qur'an, I can only conclude that when Muhammad arrived on the historical scene approximately six hundred years after the time of Jesus, and began to promote a new religion that, while having certain similarities to both the Jewish and the Christian faiths, yet at the same time, is quite contrary to both of them, he wasn't listening to the voice of the One True God, who his ancestors apparently still worshipped to some degree. In short, while my words will obviously be offensive to Muslims, is it possible then that Muhammad was actually one of the many false prophets of whom even Jesus warned us in His discourse concerning the End time and the time of His own Second Coming? Consider the following verse:

"For there shall arise false Christ’s’,and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect."  Matthew 24:24, KJV

To my personal dismay, I learned some time ago that the holy book of the Muslims -- the Qur'an -- contains a surah called As-Saff -- or The Ranks, Battle Array -- in which there is a verse where Jesus supposedly prophesies concerning the coming of Muhammad, in order to follow in His footsteps as the next great prophet of God. 

Consider this verse as it is found in three different translations of the Qur'an:

Yusufali Translation:

"And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary, said: "O Children of Israel! I am the messenger of Allah (sent) to you, confirming the Law (which came) before me, and giving Glad Tidings of a Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad." But when he came to them with Clear Signs, they said, "This is evident sorcery!"

As-Saff (The Ranks, Battle Array) 61:6

Pickthal Translation:

"And when Jesus son of Mary said: O Children of Israel! Lo! I am the messenger of Allah unto you, confirming that which was (revealed) before me in the Torah, and bringing good tidings of a messenger who cometh after me, whose name is the Praised One. Yet when he hath come unto them with clear proofs, they say: This is mere magic."

As-Saff (The Ranks, Battle Array) 61:6

Shakir Translation:

"And when Isa son of Marium said: O children of Israel! surely I am the messenger of Allah to you, verifying that which is before me of the Taurat and giving the good news of an Messenger who will come after me, his name being Ahmad, but when he came to them with clear arguments they said: This is clear magic."

As-Saff (The Ranks, Battle Array) 61:6

In my view, the above verse is nothing short of an outright demonic deception; obviously because Jesus would not claim to be the Son of God and Savior of the world, and then turn around and prophesy of an even greater prophet in the future who would deny Jesus's very Divinity and Messiahship, which is exactly what Muhammad does. To say the least, the idea of Jesus prophesying in positive terms about a future prophet who will deny Him is ludicrous.

What makes this particular Muslim deception so subtle, is the fact that this verse is concealed between thirteen other verses in this surah, which Jews and Christians will readily identify with, due to the fact that the surah embraces some Biblical themes, such as the importance of putting obedience behind our faith -- much like James chapter two -- Moses and the rebellious Israelites, and Jesus and His Disciples. The truth is, if you read the Qur'an, you will find many things with which you are familiar as a Christian or a Jew. Some of the names will obviously be different, but you'll recognize the accounts of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Noah and the Ark, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the story of Lot and Sodom and Gomorrah, Moses, Aaron and Pharaoh, the parting of the Red Sea, Gideon (Talut), King David, Solomon, Job, Jonah, etc. You will also read about Joseph and Mary, and discover that Mary's Immaculate Conception is accepted within Islam, even though I personally view this as a false doctrine. The birth of John the Baptist to Elizabeth and Zacharias is likewise discussed.

You may even begin to think, "Wow! This Qur'an isn't so bad after all! Maybe I have been wrong about the Muslim faith." But if that is your experience, then readers beware! As you will discover later in this series, while Christ's Divine Mission as a holy Messenger from God is accepted, as well as His many miracles, that is as far as it goes. He is totally stripped of any status greater than that; and I will provide many verses from the Qur'an to prove this particular point beyond a shadow of a doubt!  In addition to the above topics, you will also discover that the Qur'an discusses Heaven and Hell, Satan -- who is known as "Shaitan" in the Islamic religion -- the Last Days, Gog and Magog, the Day Of Resurrection, the Final Judgment, a New Creation and other familiar themes. So, on the surface, the Qur'an appears to be a rather innocent book; but is it really, or does Islam teach certain things that some people don't know about?

The truth is, if you are a Spirit-led Christian and begin to read the Qur'an more closely as I have done, you will begin to recognize the blatant inconsistencies and the lies. As a long-time Christian, I am firmly convinced that this is so. Furthermore, I am convinced that it will be because of this strong delusion and rebellion on their part, that the Muslim nations may soon -- within a few short years -- ravage the country of Israel, and kill many people, all motivated by a misguided belief that they are doing so in the name of the "One True God" -- Allah. It is interesting to note that the Lord prophesied the following concerning the coming fate of His First Century followers:

"They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service." John 16:2, KJV

It's important to realize that life is like a boomerang, and that we each reap what we sow. Just as the pharisaical Jews --such as the former Pharisee Saul -- persecuted and killed some of the First Century Christians, in the sincere belief that they were performing God's service, in the years ahead, it seems probable that the Jews may likewise be visited by their own sins when Muslim radicals, filled with pride and honor for their Islamic faith, and motivated by the devilish rantings of their Islamic False Prophet, may begin to kill the Jews, and destroy their synagogues, to a greater degree than what we have already witnessed with Palestinian suicide bombers. If and when this happens, tragically, the situation will have come full circle.

To fully understand this situation, and to help you to grasp why these events may happen at some point in the future, we will have to examine actual excerpts taken from Islam's holy book -- the Qur'an -- or Koran, according to the Western spelling of the word. Through this examination, you will come to recognize what is really felt and believed within the Arab and Muslim mind and heart. Be forewarned that this knowledge can be dangerous. It is ideas like these which put the life of author Salman Rushdie in danger; and to be quite honest, I too have considered the personal risk that I am taking by publishing controversial -- and to some people -- offensive information such as this. Nevertheless, I am motivated to be faithful to Him who has called me to this writing ministry. Furthermore, I still have much work to do for the Lord, and I trust that He will continue to protect me, until such time when I have completed my task.  

As I stated at the beginning of this series, it would be a mistake on any of our parts to simply believe in government propaganda, or to accept mass media hearsay, regarding Muslim beliefs. So let us now go straight to the source; that is, to the actual writings of the "prophet" Muhammad -- or Mohammed if you prefer -- so that you can plainly see exactly what he taught and advocated almost fourteen hundred years ago. As I said, you will see that Islam is by no means the non-violent and peaceful religion that some people have proposed.  Islam is a Satanist Anti Christian Religion whose main desire is to destroy Christianity and create a Gov’t based on Shari Law.
