What Will This Bring?

Theology and Politics from a Conservative, Biblical Perspective

The problem with what we are seeing in the Middle East dates all the way back to Muhammad. It was under him and his teachings that others began to see that Allah was a god of conquest. In essence, Islam, though purported to be a religion, is really a system of conquest. In the beginning and the end, this is what Islam is all about.

What began recently as an attack on innocent people within the boundaries of Israel, is essentially proof that Islam is about dominance, repression, oversight and enslavement. This is what Islam means to anyone outside of that system and it is what people live by within that system.

It is difficult for civilized people to relate to terrorists; those who at all costs, will do everything they can to overcome and enslave (or kill), those outside of Islam. Civilized people tend to think that if we could simply teach (or reteach), those within terrorist organizations that we no longer live in the ages before people became thoroughly civilized, then those within the terrorist organizations would simply become re-educated and start living as civilized people. After all, isn’t this the main premise behind the attempts to reconfigure the way criminals are treated so that they can eventually become actively part of civilized society?

The problem with Muslim terrorists is that everything they do – rape, behead, torture and kill – are all done as a sacrifice to Allah. In the end, in a very perverted twisted way, Muslim terrorists actually believe they are putting their victims “closer to Allah” so to hate them, to torture, rape and brutally kill them is – to the terrorist – an act of kindness that will give their victims the opportunity to be fully accepted by Allah in the next life.

There is no reasoning at all with people like this because, unfortunately, due to the tenets of Islam, anyone outside of Islam is seen as Allah’s enemy and must be “dedicated” to Allah, ultimately, through their death.

Who knows exactly why the situation began with Israel now going after Hamas terrorists in full retribution? We may never know the whys and wherefores. What we know is that somehow the Israeli/Gaza border was breached by terrorists riding motorcycles (or walking), flying in on hang gliders and essentially able to walk right in Israel without any response from Mossad or IDF for roughly five hours. During this time, innocent civilians were brutally massacred. Many women were raped right next to their dead friends, having been unceremoniously executed by terrorists.

In other areas, IDF soldiers came across barbarous sights of 40 or so children and infants slaughtered in at least one Kibbutz. Many had been beheaded, in obedience to the Koran, which advocates that when seeing a Jew, to literally go for their necks.

The hatred that is deeply seated within terrorists is so base that non-Muslims are not seen as human beings. Jews are on the bottom of the ladder, but Gentiles who are also not Muslim, are not treated much better than Jews.

The reason Islam is destined to fail is due to the fact that even though they create major mayhem whenever they can, there is nothing about Islam that decrees peace or engenders the ability of devout Muslims being able to get along with the rest of the world. In fact, though we live in 2023, devout Muslims continue to live in 7th century AD. This is where their mindset originates and they firmly believe that making war against all non-Islamic people is their true calling.

However, they cannot see beyond their “war.” During the Ottoman Empire, things were still in a constant state of flux, eventually with the empire collapsing. Islam does not know what to do if they are not attacking the non-Muslim. They cannot wrap their brains around peaceful conditions. During the Ottoman Empire, there was only a semblance of peace because Islam had the upper hand and all non-Muslims were considered slaves of the empire. Because of that, Islam treated those slaves any way they wanted to treat them, which was often very bad for the slave (both Jew and non-Muslim Gentile).

Muslims simply implode when they are not warring against outside forces. Daniel Greenfield explains it well.

What we saw in Israel, Hamas terrorists raping, mutilating and defiling corpses, is another bloody wake-up call. There will be many others.

Beyond the politics and the geopolitics, we still haven’t come to terms with what we’re fighting.

The barbarism of murdering women and children, taking them as hostages, and posting photos of their dead bodies to social media, is not a byproduct of Islamic warfare, it’s the whole point.

Cruelty, beheading, burning to death, torturing and mutilating are the essence of Islam. This is how Islamic warfare was practiced beginning with Mohammed for over a thousand years. It’s how it continues to be practiced, whether it’s ISIS fighting other Muslims, Azebajani troops killing Armenians, Hamas attacking Israelis, or Islamic terrorists plotting carnage in Western nations.

Islam was born out of a war by barbarians against the civilized societies of Persia and Byzantium. Despite academic mythmaking, its vision never extended beyond rape and slavery, its empires fell into power struggles, beginning with Sunnis and Shiites, and its cultural and scientific accomplishments were all looted from conquered peoples. When civilization finally toppled the Ottoman Empire with some help from its internal barbarians, the cycle began again.[1]

Civilized people in the western world have a very difficult time understanding this. It makes little sense to us because we are civilized and how could Muslims not be? Again, if we consider that the average devout Muslim mindset is fixed in the 7th century AD where roving bands of Muslims (terrorists?), did whatever they could to overcome every other people group on the planet, then we begin to understand the fatal flaw in their thinking.

Today’s devout Muslim cannot exist without conflict. They live for it, look for it, and thrive on it. It is part of their DNA at this point because, as Greenfield notes, they have no conscience at all. They believe what they are doing – whether raping, torturing, beheading or killing in some other way, is what Allah would have them do. It is their way of offering to Allah the sacrifices Allah demands. From this they do not waver.

Greenfield’s article is simply titled “Savages” and sadly, this is what devout Muslims have allowed themselves to become. Peter the apostle mentions this type of person in 2 Peter 2:12.

But these, like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and destroyed, blaspheming about matters of which they are ignorant, will also be destroyed in their destruction…(NKJV)

This is in reference to those who speak against angels and spiritual beings, who have no clue regarding the truth of these beings. They puff themselves up with their “knowledge” that is built solely on lies, from the pit of hell, yet they believe they are fully correct in what they believe.

While Muslim terrorists believe they must destroy life in the most horrific way possible, Israeli soldiers believe that they should do what they can to save life wherever possible. This is evidenced by the way they simply tried to arrest Muslim terrorists when they could and were not involved in a fire fight with them. The Muslim terrorists know that IDF will treat them as human beings. Interestingly enough this they consider one of the weakness of Jewish soldiers and another reason for the hatred they possess of all non-Muslims. This perceived weakness is seen with disdain rather than compassion.

So the world is witnessing major atrocities in the Middle East once again, perpetrated by Muslim terrorists who have absolutely no fondness or concern for anyone who is not Muslim. Any non-Muslims must either be eradicated from the face of the earth or enslaved by Muslim overlords.

Muslims are not afraid to die and in death, they believe they will receive tremendous rewards, including 70 virgins to enjoy in heaven throughout eternity.

However, the new war in the Middle East goes, we can be sure that soon, others like Hezebollah and additional terrorist groups will join the fray. It appears as though we may well be on the way to another fully global war; WWIII as it looks as though the Ukraine v Russia war did not come to the full expectations determined by the globalists. So, now, Israel and the terrorist groups opposed to her, have been brought into the field.

If we also consider that there are currently millions of Muslims inside the USA (both legally and illegally here), all seemingly waiting for their opportunity to attack innocent Americans who simply want to live in peace, we have a potentially huge problem on our hands. Who knows when some “signal” will be sent and received that now is the time for their “retribution” against all non-Muslims?

Here’s another reality for me. Since this war broke out, people who side with Israel are constantly asking for monetary donations. They also want people to create videos stating they support Israel. Many have added the Israeli flag to their social network sites in honor of Israel, just as many added the Ukrainian flag previously.

The reality for me is a bit different. If asked do I support Israel, my answer is not necessarily what people might want to hear. I fully support what God is doing and will continue to do in the state of Israel. The Jews who tragically died recently at the hands of godless terrorists, will reside in the exact same place as the Gentile Muslims who’ve been killed by IDF forces. There is no difference between the groups because the same lack of truth imprisoned both. In each case, those Jews who died with Jesus and the only salvation available through Him, will have no part in His heaven and the same applies to all the Gentile Muslims who died as well.

There are many – and quite possibly a solid majority – of Jews today in Israel who are simply social Jews. They have no real religious beliefs. They are godless and far off from God. The same is true of devout Muslims. Only people – Jews and Gentiles – whose eyes have been open to the truth about Jesus and the salvation He and only He has made available to the world and who embrace that truth, will live with God after this life is over.

My heart is with the people who are so blinded by hate that they cannot see the truth – both Jews and Gentiles. I don’t see a good end to this “war.” In fact, the Bible promises that during the upcoming Tribulation, the attacks on Jewish people will be the worst this world has ever seen or will see (Matthew 24). The attacks on believers during that same time will also be seriously ramped up because Satan knows his time is very short, so he will stop at nothing to expend his hatred and animosity on all those who are not sold out to him.

I could be wrong, but it seems the days of peace and ease are over. We can now look forward to increasingly troubling times. Keep your head on a swivel and follow Christ closely.
