Sow the Wind: Reap the Whirlwind

For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind:
Ho. 8:7a KJV

Over 10,000 civilians were killed outright in the attack on Iraq, mostly women, children and the aged, together with at least 30,000 Iraqi soldiers, mere teenage conscripts. Simple butchery, a slaughter. They were killed by weapons designed to burn human beings to charcoal or to shred their flesh. US and British forces plastered urban areas with cluster bombs, (I've read eye-witness reports, carefully hidden from the American public by the US press). Uranium munitions, whose radioactive poison is ingested with the desert dust, are still reaping a deadly harvest. You can be certain the unseen deaths will ultimately far outnumber this already gruesome toll. While you read this malnourished children are dying from thirst and gastroenteritis because the world's biggest military machine fails to restore power and clean running water, as its most basic obligations require.

This carnage, following an unprovoked illegal assault on a sovereign country, is a crime by any measure of international law: be it the United Nations Charter or the Geneva war crimes conventions. The 'supreme international crime', the US and British Nuremberg judges of Nazi war criminals decided, was that of unprovoked aggression, because it contains 'the accumulated evil' of all war crimes.

Bush and Blair have committed this crime. They share responsibility for causing violent death and suffering on a vast scale, that the web of deceit spun by their henchmen has failed to justify. In their concentration camps, at Guantanamo Bay, Bagram in Afghanistan, and Baghdad airport, there are no human rights, no recognizable rule of law, and no justice. In this ungodly NWO Orwellian world, people 'disappear' while others, charged with nothing, beg for their lives. Meanwhile, on the streets of conquered Baghdad, elite US units act as death-squads, shooting and killing civilians as they drive by.

Even the brainwashed American public are beginning to realise they have been had. They are waking up to see what Bush and Blair have done, and where the trail of blood leads: that they have handed al-Qa'ida, and other radical groups a gift in a devastated and humiliated Iraq and, in so doing, have endangered their own civilians wherever they may be.

Further reason to invoke Fascist NWO laws and restrictions unheard of in their nations, and thus prepare the way for the AntiChrist himself.

What a missed opportunity. Instead of apologizing for US-UK thuggery, empire building, and continuing war crimes, then demonstrating genuine Christian love and mercy to the world, by making restitution - The wolves ravage, kill, and exploit people who've never heard the Gospel of Christ once in their brief tortured lives. How much better it would have been if America had stood for Christ and followed His Spirit, instead of the AntiChrist spirit - To show enemies and sinners Christ's love and grace, causing them to hunger for Truth, instead Uncle Sam continues to be justifiably reviled worldwide, and God's Word blasphemed because of their hypocrisy.

God cannot mocked. The Anglo-American alliance have trampled on God's Word, and mocked His Royal Law of Love. Instead of loving their enemies, they have killed them along with innocents. They have sown the wind, and they will surely reap the whirlwind.

Question and Answer

'Is it alright to read Harry Potter and play Dungeons and Dragons just for fun; if you aren't serious about it surely it can't do any harm?'

Answer: It's like playing with those cute colourful cluster-bombs America and Britain have littered Iraq and Afghanistan with. Beautiful innocent children are picking them up in Khandahar and Basra and playing with them for fun. Hillah hospital wards are packed with hideously wounded kids who found out the wicked truth the hardest possible way.

You may not be serious when you meddle with the occult by reading Harry Potter books and playing Dungeons and Dragons, but the demonic spirits behind them are serious, and so are the consequences. Read our article on Harry Potter in the Bible to find out more.

I'm a missionary in Asia, and I know a Buddhist temple that tourists flock to simply because it is in the guidebooks. They gawk at the idols, inhale the incense, and buy souvenir Buddha idols to take back home. They are not serious you understand; they are simply tourists. What many discover too late, is that they also return with something hidden from their eyes. Demonic spirits follow them, and begin their subtle relentless oppression. It has happened so many times it's been written about by clinical psychologists. Visitors begin to have bizzare dreams and nightmares, their personalities change, they develop sinful cravings, vile habits, and soon their marriages are ruined, they can't keep their job, they often slip into madness, and frequently, suicide. The guidebook says it is 'well worth a visit'. Do you want to go too?

Power Evangelism Tip

Halloween: Combat Little Devils

Satan sends your neighbour's children around dressed up in cute-devils outfits to ring your doorbell, and he expects you to play along. By doing so you endorse the occult, and completely blow your Christian witness to your neighbourhood. Instead, stand-out for Christ and prepare by stocking up on Halloween Gospel tracts. When those sweet lil'devils come knocking; invite them inside, sit them down, pray, binding the spirits controlling their families, then ask them to read the tracts out loud right in front of you. When they have done so, ask them if they have understood, answer any questions they may have. Then lead them to Christ. You don't need their parent's permission; you have Christ's who said, 'Let the little children come to me'. Then send them straight back home with the tract, a bar of chocolate, and the Good News that Jesus has taken their sins away!

Bookmark your Bible, and lovingly read Deuteronomy 18:10-13, and Mark 16:15-16 to any parent who dares to call to complain.
