My three a.m. after my experience, reaction to the realization that Muslim Extreemists are also attacking with the technology of the Internet. And, they are as close as your own personal computer in your own home.

The event that brought me to the sober realization that it is really time to know where we stand, and what we believe.     At 3 am I was just finishing uploading a new Bible Study on my ministry web page, when the computer froze. I had to restart with my boot up disk. I ran Zone alarm system search for viruses, ect. I run Zone Alarm, Spy-Bot, Ad-Aware SE, plus the standard XP firewall. Zone Alarm found and secured a trojan horse sent to my computer from Yemen, which is in the south end of Saudia Arabia. I then put the Locator program called Neo-Trace on with the IP address of the sender who sent the Trojan Horse. It traced and listed all the routers from my computer to the IP destination. Like I expected the source computer of the Trojan Horse had a firewall so it was invisible on the Internet. But, I saw the last 2 links to Yemen were Jordan, Gaza, Paris France, then Satelite to Chicago and then about 20 routers to my Computer IP address. I said all this to say, folks we are in a battle. A high tech war with Muslim Extreemists. People who declair a jihad against Salmon Rushde, and anyone wanting to exercize their rights to free speech. The world dosen't seem to mind when they call us, the great satan, the infidels, dogs, and according to the Koran, we are to be treated as less than human, as pigs. We don't stop or censure them. We try to be nice, hoping our demonstration of frendly jestures will win them over. I am beginning to think it has become like that story of the frog and the scorpion. The frog felt he had made a friend. But the scorpion just had to follow his nature and sting the frog. This war is starting at the point where WW2 ended with the desperate kamikazi's flying their planes into ships. It was unbelievable for the Americans to imagine how people could do this. Now, here we sit and the extreemists are beginning their jihads at the kamikazi level. Where can it go from here. It is like, they are flying their planes into our ships and we are leaning over the rails holding up signs, lets be friends. We will pay you if you stop. But they are going too fast to read your signs, and they can't hear you over the roar of their engines. They are commited to kill you and I and every infidel any way they can. Matthew 5 43-48 Is my treastice on what a real christian should be like. It ends with that we might be like our Father in heaven. Forgiving, returning good for evil. Helping those who hate you. Read it Matthew as soon as you can. This is what God himself is showing us what His character is like. (Quote at the bottom) Jesus said, "if you have seen me, you have seen my Father". In another place, "he that loveth not, knoweth not God, for God is Love. (Quote at the bottom) The scriptures add, love worketh no ill toward its neighbor. Wanting to use your baby or child to blow up other peoples children seems to be a different intrepation from the God we want to follow. How could they love us if by killing us we go to a certain hell. Wouldn't you think that if they really loved us they wouldn't end our chance to convert later. Unfortunately, there seems to be 2 completely diametrically opposed schools of thought and faith. One God Loves us all. The other, a god wanting war, condoning murder, and creating a seething, angry, vindictive, mass who really think they are doing god's service by killing you. (Quote at the bottom) Jesus fortold that in the "last days", they will kill you thinking they are doing gods service. This is as clear a fulfillment of Christ's prophecy as I can see.

Editorial and Challenge to all of us.

Author, Mike McKerracher

    Long ago in the early 70's I remember getting to work with the YWAM's, Richard Wurmbrant and Brother Andrew in the Munich Olympic Outreach. And in some secret bible smuggling into various parts of Russia. Some of my friends were put in Russian prisons. But now, in post cold war days, there has been a complete Paradigm Shift. Russia seems to have more freedoms. But now the oppression seems to have come from the Muslim extremists who have grown to over 1.8 Billion of the world’s population. They have also grown in their control of religious freedoms, controlling more than two fifths of the earth’s population. Part of my Doctorate covered Missiology. A study of the development of the Christian Church from 33 A.D. until these current times. We have forgotten that countries that are now 96 to 99% Muslim were at some time 20-45% Christian. In 1950, Egypt was 32% Coptic Christian and Other. Now they are less than 3-6%. This is typical of many countries where aggressive Jihads have taken over.
Somalia’s Newspaper declared on the front page "The Last 103 Churches in Somalia have been destroyed, Praise Allah! The subtitle continues to read; "Somalia also proclaims that there is not one Christian alive within the borders of the entire country!" It was tragic that only 3 months later Bill Clinton authorized the Black Hawk rescue attempt. They took action as though they were totally ignorant of the true Muslim warlord situation they were flying into. They were attacked and had to flee. The U.S. looked stupid, and many lost their lives. I didn't see any Somalia news about killing Christians in our news till it was too late. They only say, there are “ethnic” problems in Somalia. The Sudan is a similar situation, the general world news shares, “there are ethnic problems” in the Sudan. I have not met an American or Media person who knows what is really happening. America and NATO went in to Kosovo to stop the Ethnic struggle between the Serbians and Albanians. The Muslim Albanians then destroyed almost all of the churches in Kosovo. ( See, Kosovo Link for maps and Photos ). It is not an “ethnic struggle”, it is a Religious War by the Muslim-Extreemists, to wipe the Christians and Non-Muslims from the face of the earth. 3 years ago we, (net-researchers and archivest) began reporting the slaughter of non-Muslims by the Arab Managed Sudan Muslim Army. Reports went as high as 2 million killed. But the third year the news began to share about the hunger and needs of the Sudanese who were "ethnically" different. That there was an ethnic struggle and increasing problems for the displaced. The truth is, the Muslims slaughtered and killed and drove the Christian and non-Muslims all the way to Dalfor next to Chad. 2 to 3 million are gone. It is not ethnic cleansing, its Religious cleansing. No, it is Religious persecution and total annihilation of an entire group. This happens to be the non-Muslims. You and me. This religious cleansing has already happened in, Lybia, Algiers, Rowanda, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Liberia, Kosovo, Chechyna, Summatra, and many more places. The funny thing that I have noticed is, that it is kept out of the news until the slaughter is basically finished and almost all of the Christians are gone. Then the news begins to report, there seems to be an ethnically based struggle that is taking place in, so and so. Hold your breath, here it comes. Could it be, maybe, that, the Media and major international Corporate Conglomerate Oligarchies are against Christians. And pro Oil, Arab, and Muslim interests. Hold on for a minute. Over 200 web sites have news documents verifying that the funding for the Arab run Muslim Army in Sudan is getting its guns, bombs, helicopters, food, and politically structured backing from Oil companies. China has major stock in launching their oil company in Sudan, as well as BP, Esso, Exon, and OPEC Subsidiaries. It turns out there is a huge oil rich field that has been found in the north and middle of Sudan. News says the Oil money was used to clear the Christians off the land. That's why they are in camps in Dalfore. Like cattle, they have been driven and are being held in camps. Chad doesn’t want them. And it appears the News Media doesn’t want them either. It's a basic rule of law that; If Christians are suffering, it will not be in the news. My friend Ron who has lived in Jerusalem over 15 years, says the songs they sing from their towers every morning and throughout the day often say in Arabic, "death to all infidels, death to America, and may Allah grant us power to destroy Israel and drive them into the sea”! Ron reports the Muslims will tell the English speaking media, oh we want peace, and we really want to continue talks and peacefully negotiate. But in Arabic, from their towers they are singing, “death to all non-Muslims unwilling to convert “. I have seen 3 repeating trends. The News ignored the events happening in the concentration camps during most of WWII. The U.S. refused entry to over 50000 fleeing Jews during that time. The news ignored the plight of the Christians in the cold war years in Russia, China, and much of the Modest. Now, they refuse to acknowledge or broadcast the fact that 200 million Christian and non-Muslims have been killed, are missing, and have been displaced. They hide the fact that more than 8 million Christians and non-Muslims have been killed since 1988. Challenge for Our Conscience If we are not willing at this time to stand up and be counted, then all of our noble values, our infinite purposes and eternal worth will simply count for nothing. Paul declared, I am spending and being spent for the Gospels Sake. Our Father, who sees in secret, will reward us openly and before all the angels. Jesus said, that which is whispered in the ear, Shout it from the rooftops. Silence, is consent. In Romans chapter 1 God says if we are silent, mankind considers that we are consenting and condoning by our silence. We must speak out. No man can shut our mouths or we may be considered as guilty as those commiting the evil deeds.
We owe it to ourselves, our ETERNAL SOULS to not let these earthly temporal intimidators cause us to shut up.
This is the Age of the True Christian Martyr, a sure sign of our Lord's Return. Mt. 24, Luke 21, Mark 13. He said, in the last days the world will hate you and despise you, even as they despised and hated me. That day has arrived. Hey, fellow saints, let's go out with a bang, not a whimper. Let's proclaim the Good News about Heaven and that it is at hand. About Our Lord's forgiveness, because it is for all. And about our Heavenly Father, for HE IS LOVE, and LONGS for all of us to be with HIM FOREVER. For Our God, Being Love Itself, won't order us to blow up our children. He won’t make us force others to be "believers". He won't tell us to curse or despise others, or kill others for our personal benefits. Or make us force whole countries to live as we. But, Our God of Love, who is Love, tells us to forgive those who harm you, pray for those who, Be like sheep for the slaughter, not returning evil for evil. But returning blessing for cursing. Kindness for hatred. Caring for indifference and to be like Our Father in Heaven. Math 5, 44. Love your enemies, bless them that curse you. Do good to them that hate you and pray for them that despitefully use you. Vs. 48. Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. Mt 24, 9. At the end time, they shall deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you, and ye shall be hated of all nations for my names sake, before the end comes. And many who kill you will think they are doing God's service. This scripture is fulfilled exactly when looking at the Muslim Extremists who feel they are doing their religion a favor by killing Christians, Jews and basically, all non-Muslims. Jesus said, "if you confess me before men, then will I confess you before my Father and all the angels in heaven." But if your ashamed of me, then will I be ashamed of you.

And because the Awesome Times We are Living in are reaching their end, and the shadows of the day are long, and because we remember our Lord saying work while it is yet day, for the night cometh when we can no longer work. We should begin to rise up, to shake off the earthly bonds and affections of this little worlds jangling and fidgeting whims. It's time to remember that we are merely in this world, but not of this world. We have been called to be ambassadors for the Kingdom of Heaven; we shouldn't crave earth’s citizen’s rights for this warring, selfish, petty and base little nation-earth living in chronic compromise. But instead we should honor the position of our ambassadorship; it's detachment and objectivity. And view this nation earth by seeing it from our countries perspective, from Heaven itself. Our Allegiance is beyond this earth and it's nations. As salt of the earth, we are sprinkled over the meal to enhance it. But as salt we are not obligated to change the food itself. As salt to the meal we are sprinkled on makes all the foods better to eat. So, we help to make earth a more livable place.

Imagine what life would be like if God removed from earth; his character attributes as well as his saints, his ambassadors for heaven. Remembering that God is Love, Goodness, Kindness, Forgiveness, Patience, Mercy, Care, Hopefulness, Happiness and all other good things, for God is Good. What would be left on earth. People acting on all the other traits, greed, hatred, murder, compromise, envy, lying, deceiving, hurting and acting on motivations without any hope. The bible describes the situation. “The earth shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God”. Like salt, we do not try to force the steak to change into a pudding, we simply enhance the places and choices on the table, the earth to prolong society in general, and keep mankind from decaying so quickly that people can have a situation nice enough for men to survive long enough to find God’s grace, forgiveness and eternal life. The bible says, God is longsuffering not willing that any man perish but that all come to repentance. Peter We plant, water and sew, but only God can make it increase. And as lights and cities on a hill, we must first be as bright and clear to see as possible, so those in the dark valleys and shadows of mankind’s confusion can find God through us as we point to Him. Who Alone can Save. Jesus said, "if I be lifted up I will draw all men unto me". (See Persecution Archive of Links, Documents).

We want to share the message of His Cross at all the CrossRoads and Information Highways and Byways of the Internet. Remember, you are more than welcome to improve the spelling, the grammar, and even the syntax of this document. I am a horrible writer. It is the opposite of anything I am good at. But, my heart burns to get the word out concerning the events of this time. I am overwhelmed with the urgency of the hour. I can't forbear or holdback from speaking out. Too much is at stake. If you would like to volunteer and help in the editing of this material, let me know. You won't get paid, just like me. And you’ll probably never become famous. And you run the risk of being persecuted a little bit. But, wouldn’t it would be fun to be a team while this great battle lasts. Let me know, somewhat tounge n cheek. He is simply God Almighty Just Think, " a zillion billion years after ETERNITY has begun with JESUS, we will still have FOREVER ahead of us to look forward to " . And halfway through FOREVERS ETERNITY we will only be beginning to see the Majesty of God Almighty. In fact God is so great that even though He has given us an eternity to know Him we will never fully understand the Greatness of God, we will still be searching the height, the length, the depth and the breadth of God Almighty and His Love. Even more than this, picture God who has been from everlasting unto everlasting, if He were to stay the exact same as He is right now. And consider that we and all the eternal souls, were to grow and increase in every way. Our combined growth over the space of eternity would never, ever catch up to where God is, right now. He is simply God, Almighty. Didn't you ever wonder when Jesus said, "my father is greater than I am" what wonderous implications that could mean. If he calls the earth a footstool, that he made in 6 days. What will the heavenly mansions be like if he has been gone 2000 years preparing them for us. Whew ! And, again I say, whew! If this wonderful world is the footstool can you imagine what the mansion will be like. Looking back from a zillion billion years from now, we may wish we had done a little more during that tiny mere second of conflict during the aeon of the span of mankind It all will be worth it !
