Ohio Mosque Promotes Murder!

Ohio Mosque Promotes Murder!

One day - I'll never forget it - my former "Palestinian" student-neighbors purposely showed me a newsletter from the Islamic Center in Perrysburg, Ohio that had a story from the Haddith - sayings attributed to Mohammad - that spoke of a war in the last days between Jews and Muslims, and how Jews would hide behind trees and the trees would say, "There's a Jew behind me, kill him!" except for one tree that would shelter the Jews.

The next month the singles' club from the Worldwide Church of God went to the mosque for a dinner-tour, followed by a question and answer session with the Egyptian imam/religious leader (who has since died and was praised as one who supposedly sought peace between different religions).

I repeated the "spiritual lesson" to the imam and asked him if the Muslims had any such saying. He replied that the Jews create such spurious sayings in order to discredit Islam and Arabs. I then shocked him, and the audience, when I asked: "If that's not a Muslim story, and is spurious and created by the Jews, then why would you, as the leader of this Islamic community permit that very story to be published in your newsletter last month?" He was speechless.

So I know, firsthand, how many people can profess that their religion is "peaceful" to a naive Western audience and whistle a totally different tune to their own masses.

I've also lived in predominately Arab East Jerusalem, just outside the Damascus Gate, working for my great American-Israeli Jewish manager under our millionnaire Muslim boss (who was exceptionally gracious). I know from a grassroots level what a farce the lying "peace" process is, and how such a false peace is based upon lies and delusions and is destined to crash and burn. All this is not popular to say, nevertheless it is the plain truth.

Time will surely reveal that peace is possible between Israel and Ishmael, Christians, Jews and Muslims - as the Jerusalem-based Root & Branch Islam-Israel Fellowship proves - but it must be based upon the Bible and reality, not upon lying visions of false prophets pushing an empty peace.

Hi David

Do you remember Verity (you sent her a copy of Beyond Babylon some years ago)? Well, this Mr V here - I hope you are keeping well?

I have tried to email you without any success, so am using this blog to contact you.

Thank you for your regular posts which are always very interesting and deliver food for thought in due season!

May I ask a favour, please - would you check out the website quoted below and give us some comments/feedback, when you have time?

Hello Mr V,

The name Verity sounds familiar, but I'm not sure, especially if it was years ago. Must have been one of the original copies of Beyond Babylon that Carl Brown and I self-published, truly a labor of love (and expensive). Thankfully, Publish America takes care of all that for now.

My email address is davidbenariel @earthlink.net if you have any comments or questions.

I've visited the site you've requested and have actually been there before and believe that we would do well to hold fast to what we have proven to be true, continue to grow in grace, walking in any light of understanding God has given us and grow where we are planted.

I consider Flurry the head of the Laodicean Church era, and grieve that they are doing their own thing since their mission is accomplished concerning Malachi's Message.

After Malachi's Message THEY should have published and offered Beyond Babylon freely. Instead we witnessed the "repeat performance" of Mystery of the Ages (a wonderful book that should be available, but it doesn't offer a warning message) and now Stephen Flurry's book (excellent book of modern Church history, but not the warning message).

The PCG is floundering, chasing their tail, going in circles when they should be going to the world, the general public, with the warning message Herbert W. Armstrong saw must yet go - especially to Judah.
