I’ve been thinking about those Christians in the near east who are consistently asked this question: “Will you give up your Christian faith and become a Muslim ? Or, if you don’t you will die.” Yet we do nothing for them. I have heard that there are hundreds of thousands of people that have been killed, and maybe there will be more killed than the holocaust of the Jews back in World War II. One little girl said when asked that question,”Oh no, Jesus is my best friend!” Then those monsters chopped off her head.

We did nothing when the Jews walked into the gas chambers, but can’t we do something about the killing going on now? I read about retired military men signing up, giving their own money to purchase the arms, travel expenses, food etc. They are going to the near east to fight Isis, but shouldn’t we, at least, help these men?

I heard about that fellow who was taken into court with the men 0f Isis to find out whether or not he was a Christian. They released him because they couldn’t find any evidence. There are so many churches in every town in America, we certainly could find some evidence here, couldn’t we. Our government is doing nothing, but can’t we somehow stop the killing going on there!

I am in my eighties so I probably would be no help if I went over there, but I can pray, and so can you, even if you can’t do anything more.  Let’s pray harder than ever for this killing to0 stop. Let us prove that we have lots of evidence that we are Christians.

 

 

 

The whole world is in such a mess I almost think I could fix it up faster than all those who are supposably in control of things. We find Christian men, women and children all standing up for their faith in Jesus and we think that is a wonderful thing, except they are now having their heads cut off, burned in a cage, or crucified because they are Christians.

We, Americans, are guilty. Our churches are not really mentioning those poor people yet Isis wants to come over here soon. Are you prepared to say, as one little girl said when asked if she would leave her faith, “Jesus has always been with me. No, I will never leave him.” I imagine there have been many statements like that made when people are asked if they would leave their faith, become Muslim or die. Our government is not doing anything about it. Why?

We’ve done nothing about it either. I hope all of you are praying, not only for the Christians in the near east, but also for our country. We have many things to pray about but the greatest of things is that American families have walked away from God. It’s hard to remember that he is in control of everything and when he sees corruption he will judge us. He’s done it before. Just read the Old Testament in your Bible and you will see. In fact, it would be good to take the Bible from your shelves and read it to your children. Why? Because our children have seen prayer and the Bible taken away from them in our schools.

This is a hard blog to write. Id much rather talk about fun things like building a pond and now having my daughter and her husband building a fence which isn’t really a fence beside the pond. please think about the things written here. I’m talking, not only to you, but to myself as well.
