Facebook shuts down “Warriors for Christ” page

I received this email from an admin for the Warriors for Christ Facebook page. As a proud Jew, I am not directly affected by this, but remember Pastor Niemoller’s famous poem:

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out –
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out –
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out –
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me – and there was no one left to speak for me.

They’re coming on Facebook for the Jews, for the Christians, for all the defenders of freedom. They’re coming for the warriors for Christ. They’re not coming for the warriors for Allah. For months, Facebook has been censoring, scrubbing and banning posts deemed to be hate speech. And despite the claim in this article that “anti-Muslim rhetoric” was left up, in reality, it is quickly and efficiently scrubbed. I’m not talking about comments such as the ones quoted below, calling for mass murder and genocide — those are never acceptable under any circumstances, directed at any group, and should be removed.

No, Facebook acts swiftly to shadowban or block or flag as “hate speech” essentially all comments and users who dare violate the sharia. And it’s getting worse. Posts, links, comments critical of jihad and sharia violate Facebook’s sharia terms of service.

My feed has been blocked and banned. Facebook daily referrals were 90K plus back in February; today they are under 2k. My feed is blocked from my millions of followers on Facebook, and I have seen my circulation drop precipitously in the past few months. For news publishers, Facebook is the motherboard of link traffic. No news site can survive without them. None of us are immune, which is why my traffic is down upwards of 95% since the block. My Facebook page has well over a million followers; add my organizations to that, and it is roughly two million people.

This has all been arranged at the highest levels. A chief officer from a major American communications company went to the terror state of Pakistan to assure the Pakisstani government that Facebook would adhere to the sharia. The commitment was given by Vice President of Facebook Joel Kaplan, who called on Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan. “Facebook has reiterated its commitment to keep the platform safe and promote values that are in congruence with its community standards.”

Dear Pamela,

RE: Warriors For Christ page shut down by Facebook

My name is Nellchy Kentley and I am an admin for the Warriors For Christ page that had over 225,000 followers and counting.

On 29th December 2017, Facebook shut down our page because of our biblical stance on marriage. Facebook has been after our page for many years and often censored our posts simply because they contained truth articles on statistics, Bible verses and memes that exposed the hypocrisy of the left.

We have a 24 hour prayer sms hotline to pray for anyone seeking prayer and also a crisis outreach hotline to assist people in need of emergency crisis support and financial assistance, food or clothing.

We received several messages a day, many of which were from people in serious distress and even some with suicidal tendencies and we were able to chat with them to help talk them out of it and pray with them.

This ministry has been such a blessing for countless people, and Facebook has heartlessly shut us down.

They calculated this move and chose to remove the page at 5:00 p.m. EST on Friday December 29, 2017 right before a long holiday weekend, in the hope that we would be discouraged in contacting any media about this because most businesses are closed for several days.

We will not be silenced and will be pursuing legal action with Facebook.

I have been made aware that you too are taking legal action against Facebook and am reaching out to you to let you know what’s happened to us and offer our contact details if you would like to chat with the founder of our page Pastor Rich Penkoski.

Pastor Rich Penkoski, who is also the founder of SocialCross.org.  SocialCross.org is a Christian social media site, that our ministry created after we were bombarded with over 1 million trolls from the LGBT community in June of this year 2017.

We received death threats, hate mail, and were flooded with pride emojis all over our page with porn and derogatory pictures and links to porn sites. Pastor Rich even received faeces in the mail and it got to the point he and his family (his wife and six kids) were forced to move house as a result of all the threats.

After going through this storm and having absolutely no support from Facebook after we reported several serious death threats to them, this prompted us to create outer own social media platform.

The amount of censoring, banning and removal of posts from Facebook over the years on our site has been endless. Rich has been banned for month after month for posting Bible scriptures and many times for absolutely no reason at all. A number of us admins have also been banned regularly by Facebook as well.

Also, here is a link to a petition that we have set up to put the pressure on Facebook to republish our page;

If you would like to contact Rich Penkoski to discuss this further with him and exchange ideas and suggestions with each other, his cell phone is 973 941 2871.

Thank you for your time.
Kind Regards and God bless you
