The recent barbarity inflicted upon the people of Israel shocked many across the world. The bloodthirsty and demonically inspired massacre of innocent men, women, children, and even infants, was rightly denounced by many as the wickedness it was. Of course, those controlled by bloodlust and hatred, which is to say by demons, celebrated the raping, beheading, and brutality of the Hamas Islamists who perpetrated this madness.
God will not be mocked and He will judge not just those who celebrate, enabled, and supplied the actual murderers with the opportunity to carry out this travesty, but all the people who smirked and threw out the ignorant platitude “Zionism is equally evil and therefore the Israelis deserved what they received.” Let me say this plainly to all the “Zionism is evil” crowd, which includes many who believe they are born-again Christians: Your blatant animosity toward anything Jewish or pertaining to Israel, is a clear sign that you do not understand God, His Word, or the mission of the ecclesia in these end times.
As I was traveling to an appointment today, this teaching was playing on our radio station. God’s timing is perfect. We must awake from the demonic-Islamic tranquilizer that has produced a deep and ignorant stupor to fall upon people with the available means to stop this madness.
You can support The Transforming Word Ministries in the following ways:
I’ll
tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again[1]
And
Jesus began to say to them, “See to it
that no one misleads you. Many will come in My name,
saying, ‘I am He!’ and
will mislead many … for false Christs and false
prophets will arise, and will show signs and wonders, in order to
lead astray, if possible, the elect. But take heed;
behold, I have told you everything in advance. Mark 13:5-6,
22-23 NASB
There is an
eight hundred pound gorilla on the world stage and nearly every political
leader in the world, save Trump, Ader of Hungary, and Duda of Poland, plus a
few more, refuse to acknowledge its presence. It is getting really awkward for
Macron, Merkel, and May. The atrocities that they have allowed to be committed
against their citizenry by this gorilla deny reason. Can open revolt In France,
Germany, and the United Kingdom be too far off?
Stated simply, world leaders who advocate for the continued freedom of this gorilla to behave in any way it desires are either deceived or being paid to downplay what is clearly a war against Western civilization. I believe it is some of both but mostly deception. Somehow, Western leaders believe they can contain the cancer that is Islam.
What kind of
blindness is this? How can political leaders who rise through the cesspool of
maneuvering to reach national prominence not understand what Islam is? The
message of Islam is simple: convert or die. There is no ambiguity within Islam.
This is why I say that the world and especially the leaders of the world’s
nations, save a few, are completely deceived. This deception is satanic. Let me
explain.
Jesus warned
against being deceived. He said, “See to it that no one misleads you. Many will
come in My name.” The context is that the time will come when people will
attempt to mislead you by advocating for false Christ’s. There have been many
people over the years that have done exactly that. They have all been proven to
be liars and frauds. The most dangerous deception concerning Jesus – the false
Jesus – is found in Islam.
Satan, who is
known as Allah to Muslims, has constructed a masterful deception and named it
Islam. Christians of all people should know better than to believe the lies of
Islam but unfortunately that is not the case. This is to their shame and
potentially to their destruction. How does Islam present the most clear and
present danger to Christians and indeed the world? If you want to understand
the barbarity of Islam and why Islamists are blood-thirsty savages, then you
must understand their eschatology. Islam has a theology of the end times.
Would it
surprise you if I told you that Jesus plays a significant role in Islamic end time’s
theology? Of course, when I say Jesus, I’m talking about the Islamic Jesus.
There is a difference between the biblical Jesus and the Jesus of Islam and you
must understand this pivotal point.
Islam
recognizes Jesus as a great prophet. But Islam states that Mohammed is greater.
In fact the 12th Imam or Mahdi of Islam is even greater. The Islamic
Jesus is a great prophet but:
He is not the Son of God.
He was not born of a virgin.
He was not crucified for the sins of the world.
He did not die on a cross.
Because He didn’t die He was not resurrected.
He was taken to heaven just like Elijah and Mohammed.
He is standing with Allah waiting for Allah to allow Him to return to
the earth.
Now, some
Christians get excited over that last point: Muslims believe Jesus will return
to the earth. In their excitement they rush to an ignorant conclusion: We can
use that as a starting place for interfaith dialogue.
As Lee Corso
likes to say: Not so fast my friends! In Islam, Jesus returns to assist the
Mahdi, the Islamic Messiah-Savior figure with several necessary activities. The
Islamic Jesus will, according to Islam:
Jesus returns as a radicalized Muslim and
Jesus will implement Sharia Law across the entire world.
Jesus’ testimony as a Muslim will lead many Christians to convert to
Islam.
Jesus will testify against those Christians who refuse to convert on the
Day of Judgment.
Jesus will abolish Christianity.
Jesus will destroy every cross.
Jesus will kill all swine.
Jesus will kill the Muslim antichrist and his followers, which in
Islamic theology are the Jews.
Jesus will marry, have children, and die.
The Islamic
Jesus is the exact opposite of the biblical Jesus. In fact, the Islamic Jesus
is a near perfect representation of the biblical false prophet. Yet, we have
mindless Christians that believe we can dialogue with Islamists and find a
common ground.
Let’s
consider the Islamic messiah-savior figure, the Mahdi, sometimes referred to as
the 12th Imam. The name “Mahdi” means “the Guided One.” The Mahdi is
also called Sahib Al-Zaman or Al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar, which translated mean “the
Lord of the age” and “the Awaited Savior.” The Mahdi is Islam’s savior.
The
appearance of the Mahdi on the world stage is to Muslims the equivalent of the
return of Jesus Christ to Christians. The Mahdi is:
A descendant of Mohammed.
The final and longed for Caliph who will establish the Islamic worldwide
Caliphate.
He will rule the world through a series of holy wars.
His rise to power is preceded by an army of black flag carrying
warriors.
The black
flags these warriors carry are inscribed with the words “There is no God but
Allah, and Mohammed is his Messenger” in Arabic. The Mahdi will lead the black
flagged warriors to conquer Israel and will reign from the Dome of the Rock in
Jerusalem. Muslims believe the Mahdi will be loved by the entire world.
The reason
Muslims believe the entire world will love the Mahdi is because they believe
the Mahdi will establish world peace. He will negotiate a peace treaty between
the Arabs and the Romans, by which is meant Christians.
Let’s
contrast what Islam reaches about the Mahdi with whom the Bible says
accomplishes these things. The Bible teaches that the antichrist will arrive on
the world stage as a political savior. He will bring peace to the world through
a treaty between Israel and the Muslim world. The antichrist will appear to be
a spiritual leader for the entire world and he will make use of the one world
religion.
The biblical
antichrist attempts to destroy Jews and Christians. In fact, the biblical
antichrist breaks treaty with Israel, demands he be worshipped, and seeks to
attack and conquer Jerusalem and establish his headquarters there.
Readers that
are even vaguely familiar with the Bible see clearly that the Islamic savior,
the Mahdi, is the biblical antichrist. The Islamic Jesus is the biblical false
prophet.
Islam is
Satanic. It is thoroughly demonic in origin and practice. Indeed, it manifests
the spirit of antichrist right before the eyes of the world and yet world
leaders turn a blind eye to the horrific evil being unleashed on innocent
people.
Jesus warned
of the day when false Christs would come onto the world scene, and I remind you
of one such passage in Mark.
And Jesus
began to say to them, “See to it
that no one misleads you. Many will come in My name,
saying, ‘I am He!’ and
will mislead many … for false Christs and false
prophets will arise, and will show signs and wonders, in order to
lead astray, if possible, the elect. But take heed;
behold, I have told you everything in advance. Mark 13:5-6,
22-23
Those days
are upon us. Here are characteristics of the spirit of antichrist:
and every spirit
that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist,
of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the
world. 1 John 4:3
Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is
the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and
the Son. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father;
the one who confesses the Son has the Father also. 1 John 2:22-23
For many
deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge
Jesus Christ as coming
in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist. 2 John 1:7
The spirit of
antichrist deceives people, and is a liar. Those consumed by the spirit of
antichrist deny that Jesus is the Christ, the Messiah of Israel and the world;
they deny the Father and the Son and therefore the Trinity; they deny that Jesus
Christ came in the flesh, and therefore the incarnation.
Yet, people
want to say that the God of the Bible is Allah, that Jesus is revered within
Islam, and that if we just keep dialoguing with the Muslims then we can achieve
a peaceful co-existence with them. Neville Chamberlain lives again as every
modern imbecile who believes Islam is about co-existing.
Those that
are pushing a globalist Chrislam one-world religion harlotry should be
denounced and shamed. People that want to have conversations for better
understanding with jihadi Imams should be denounced in the strongest possible
terms.
You want to
have a conversation with Islamists? Tell them to confess their sins and receive
God’s free gift of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
Tell them to renounce the demonic lies of Islam and live as a disciple of
Jesus.
Wake up
church!

The current firestorm related to James White’s decision to facilitate an interfaith dialogue with Imam Yasir Qahdi is puzzling in the least and has become a stumbling block for many who do not understand how White cannot understand that he is “dancing with the devil” as the saying goes. Mr. White’s response to those critical of his decision has been the polar opposite of remorse and he has in fact dug his heels in and maintained that his actions were right and consistent with what Christians should be doing. Is that true? What bridges can be built to people who teach that Christians who do not submit or convert to Islam should be murdered? What madness is this that has gripped Christians today such that they believe the lie that building bridges to nowhere constitute evangelism? I won’t rehash all of Mr. White’s actions related to this in detail. You can read about that here – http://www.worldviewweekend.com/news/article/facts-reveal-james-white-islamic-dupe-clueless-evangelicals-are-desperate-save-his
What I wish to address is the support Mr. White has received. Surprisingly a couple of people with very different perspectives, one might say two people with theological beliefs very much at odds with one another, have stepped into the fray to defend Mr. White’s error. I am speaking of Phil Johnson and Michael Brown. This has added a layer of intrigue to the entire situation but has also served to obfuscate the truth of what critics of White’s decision to promote an interfaith dialogue have been saying. By engaging in what appear to be damage control activities on behalf of Mr. White, Johnson seems to have exposed himself as a hypocrite of the highest order. You can be the judge of whether or not that is true based on the information contained in this article. His previous statements seem to be completely contradictory to his stated position concerning James White’s ecumenicalism, or to use the new and improved phrase, interfaith dialogue.
A very common bumper sticker is making the rounds these days. This bumper sticker contains one word – COEXIST. Each letter of the word coexist utilizes a different religious symbol to spell out the word. For example in some renditions the C is a crescent moon representing Islam and the T is a cross that represents Christianity. Other religions such as Hinduism, Judaism, and Taoism are also represented. The meaning is clear – all religions can and must coexist if there is to be world peace.
This idea is not new. There has been an ongoing effort for decades to find common ground among the world’s largest religious groups. What is new however is that the effort is now being publicly advocated by the United Nations as well as several so-called World Congresses that meet yearly or bi-annually to discuss strategies to unite the religions of the world into one homogeneous whole.
The first issue that I have with this thinking is that it is illogical and demonstrably false. The idea that all religious people must learn to coexist for peace to occur assumes that religious people are responsible for conditions other than peace. While it is a common refrain of the easily duped, the idea that religion has caused the most death and war is easily refuted.
Joseph Stalin of Russia and Mao Tse-tung of China are responsible for nearly 125 million deaths of their own citizens.* We don’t even need to take into consideration other despots, tyrants, and dictators throughout history that easily dwarf any deaths caused by religious fanatics.
A second issue that the COEXIST mentality overlooks is this – How do you convince people who believe in diametrically opposite religious principles to forsake those? The clear answer is by coercion. That means that if the current trend of COEXIST manipulation continues you can expect to see various attempts to pass laws that drastically curtail religious expression. We are seeing this strategy being employed today in America, aimed specifically at Christianity.
A third issue with the misguided COEXIST philosophy is that advocates believe that the creation of a religious utopia will result in a global political utopia. Again, the primary cause of wars, crime, and evil generally speaking is not religion. It is the unregenerate heart of sinful man that refuses to acknowledge the Creator.
Finally, the thinking that supports a COEXIST theology ignores the impossibility of the task. In order for all religions to coexist peacefully, the primary points of difference will need to be removed completely. No other religious system teaches a personal God who came to earth and died for the sins of mankind. For Christians this means that the teaching that there is salvation in no other name but Jesus Christ will need to be denied. That is the definition of apostasy and will never happen for true believers.
Friends, do not buy into the dream of the religious Utopians. That path leads to death. Stand firm in the Lord Jesus Christ and continue to proclaim the good news of salvation in Him alone. That is a transforming truth.

The White House and media response to the events in the US embassies in Egypt and Libya can be characterized by the fact they speak like they have never seen Sharia mob justice before in their lives. Or, at least, you would think that from the knowledge and wisdom they display in their analysis.
For the last 11 years since 9/11, we have watched the same events unroll in the Islamic world and the same response come from our so-called leaders in the government, media, schools and the pulpits. The establishment view: Those Muslims are extremists, not real Muslims. We should be careful not to offend the religion of peace. When Muslims are offended by movies, Koran burnings and Mohammed cartoons, it is our fault.
The clue phone is ringing, pick it up. Here are the clues:
The murder of intellectuals and artists who criticize Mohammed is Sunna. Sunna is the perfect example of Mohammed’s life. When Mohammed captured Mecca, he first prayed, then he destroyed all religious art and then he issued death warrants for the artists and intellectuals who had opposed him. There are only two new facts in the Koran, a derivative work. The first new fact is that Mohammed is the prophet of Allah, and the second new truth is that if you don’t believe he is prophet of Allah, you can be killed.
Violence is what brings Islam success. In Mohammed’s life, he preached the religion of Islam for 13 years and garnered 150 new followers. When he went to Medina and became a politician and a warlord, when he died every Arab was a Muslim. Jihad violence was what made Islam successful. If Mohammed practice jihad, Muslims must use the technique of jihad.
Hello establishment experts, the black flag is not an Al Qaeda flag. The black flag with the Shahada, “There is no god, but Allah and Mohammed is his prophet” and the swords goes back to the Golden Age of Islam in Baghdad in the 9th century. (The establishment professors never tell you about this jihad aspect of the Islamic Golden Age.) This jihad flag is ancient.
Current news is that Ambassador Stevens was raped before he was killed. If so, then this is pure jihad doctrine. The rules for rape of captured Kafirs (unbelievers) are Sunna. At the conquest of the Jews in Khaybar, the Hadith are explicit that captured Kafirs can be raped.
The mob is a manifestation of the Sharia and the umma (the Islamic community). Notice that when a fatwa is issued, such as the famous fatwa by Khomeini against Salmon Rushdie for his artistic work The Satanic Verses, the fatwa is not to be fulfilled by the Islamic police. No, the murder is to be carried by any member of the umma. This is vigilante justice, Sharia justice, mob justice. Pay attention to how often Muslims riot to make political gain.
The shortest hadith is: war is deceit. So here come all of the “good” Muslims to explain how the murder and riots are not real Islam. And they are so upset about what Arabs are doing at the US embassies. But, they still can tell us that Islam is the religion of peace, without a single trace of irony.
The idea that we should not blaspheme Islam, Mohammed or Allah is pure Sharia and the position of the OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation). It seems that none of the establishment experts have the foggiest idea of what Sharia blasphemy entails. Not believing that Mohammed is the prophet of Allah, that a woman is a second class citizen, that jihad is part of Islam is all blasphemy. Critical thought is blasphemy. The Golden Rule is blasphemy. Any well-founded religion can survive blasphemy, except Islam, and that is the reason it is forbidden. But the worst part of this travesty is the refrain from Obama and Hillary that we should subvert our freedom of speech to the demands of the Sharia. The Sharia is Allah’s law and our Constitution is a document of ignorance to be removed from the world. So say the imams and Obama and Hillary.
And now for the last tired response from the apologists: those violent people are an extremist fringe. NO! The mobs are main-line Islam.
You can awaken a man who is asleep, but you will never awaken a man who is pretending to be asleep. That is the reason that we find our experts in the government, media, education and the pulpits to be such dhimmis. They have refused to learn a single thing about Islamic doctrine and history since 9/11. But, cheer up! When the dhimmis write about the beauty of Islam and how the Kafirs are wrong, read the comments. You will find that the common man knows far, far more about Islam than the experts. The higher you go, the less they know.
