Not only a communist, but a jihad supporting Muslim. Less than 25 years after 9/11. Boggles the mind.

Hard for me to understand why a female (like AOC) would support this Muslim…. I mean does she think that Muslim men will make an exception in her case and she won’t have to wear the hijab? Does she think that they’ll look at her and not see chattel? How in the heck can anyone be so dang ignorant to support someone with this way of life and not think it won’t affect her? 🙄

I pray God takes us home before that happens for the sake of me and my children. I know this is extreme and taboo. It’s sadly something I have seriously thought about and have talked about with my previous pastor’s wife. Taking myself and my children out before falling into the hands of Muslim men seems like the best option. I pray it never comes to that.

Some places, non-muslim Parents kill their daughters before or on the day sharia is imposed, or the night before muslim jihadis come through to take all the marriage-aged girls away for wives. When this happens, families are ordered to mark their doors with an X if they have such a daughter the day before. Some places, the jihadis go house-to-house, regardless of X or not. Those, who didn't comply are killed, not always quickly, and their daughter(s) taken. Some families give their daughter a loaded gun and leave, and what she does is her choice. Imposition of sharia on non-muslims is horrific.

I've noticed the X on the door could stand for Christ, as it did in Roman times and in the Greek alphabet, or if it were turned 45 degrees, it would be a cross. Without being turned, it would be about the same angle as a cross being drug along by a condemned man going to die, or someone carrying/dragging it for him.
 
At least the one here is already a muslim and understands what it is she's really doing: advancing the cause of islam and eventual imposition of sharia.
Shame on her! for aiding/abetting imposition of all that pain and suffering on all us women and girls :furious: :mad: :apost: :ban:

Ok so this is going to sound quite odd. Coming from me perhaps not so much. But in all honesty, it sounds pretty odd to me too.

When I was at MacArthur's church for quite a number of years, I sought very deeply to understand their ministry philosophy. It did not seem straight forward. And constantly threw me for a loop. This was not passive pew sitting quarterbacking. For me, it was for overcoming quite a few bad mental habits I had developed over the years. And even more, it was truly about survival for me. It could have been something I walked away from Christianity regarding. And I knew if i did not seek long and hard to have an idea of what i was dealing with at that church (for it greatly affected so many crucial areas of my life), I might have taken a huge break from the faith. As it were, that was only 4 years like Jonah going the totally opposite direction.

Even in my pursuits to flee God, he was utterly faithful where I was faithless. And left the 99 to the lost one, me. He would constantly show up in my life many times through my stray years before turning back to Macarthur's church which at the time seemed to have more solid teaching than most churches. What I discover over the years was being able to piece together a blueprint language (iof theirs--the ways they communicated things/themes) of sorts. For it was rather different than how i would track normally in the bible. So I wrote reminders of how their language (at GCC, Macarthur's church) worked. Like body language, or infering this or that. Or even meaning the opposite of what they are saying if you understand like where they are coming from. A different world of language--there ministry is (like going to church at the CIA lol). And so laminated it. I laminated my findings and keycode for their "ministry philosphy" language. Even looking back, it was dead on target.

The language was not exactly unbiblical. But kind of extra-biblical, if you will. I bring that up because to me, there are similar overtures somewhat with our modern-day eschatology. What I am not saying is that its definitely accurate there with eschatology as I had come to be accustomed to at Grace Community Church. The church was a major part of my life. So it mattered a lot to me. Not to have more insight and knowledge. But more like knowing how to tie my shoes. Like that pragmatic in ways. Some of that may carrying over literally perhaps in how God might enfabric (if you will...ps...new word...like it? Just made it up...lol) how events unfold within their own kind of explanatory power. Maybe so and maybe not so. But for those interested, here is an example of the kind of way I believe it is (that God might allow certain kinds of things to happen that supply a certain rhetorical value in relation to end times--or a kind of way of showing us something or how He might highlight something--and seeing those potential approaches of God as maybe how things work too), MAYBE, in eschatology. Just saying.
. . . . .

So an example would be (to borrow from the time i tried to understand GCC coded ministry philosophy language) the discovery of what was being tested by leadership was if I could see God transcend them and what they were or were not doing. For example, where they wanted to see growth in me, for them, was to test the opposite often. So if I was weak in faith in some way, they would throw a cluster form of things to doubt at me if i so chose to accept them at stupid face value, or alternatively prove by faith I (to leadership) that I knew better in Him. Almost like testing by antithesis ratio. Or faking someone out to see if they know better kind of thing and theme.

And where I might see similar connection to eschatological patterns of neo-language like...is, perhaps (if true and of course only if true), to see irony as tells. Or rather "clarity" more than it just mystifying. I tend to think that is the sort of rule of thumb that might be somewhat in operation in eschatology. Not because I got used to an alien language of ministry philosophy...and therefore end times has to be about that too. My first few years in taking in that it might be end times, had nothing to do with irony or antithesis. That would not have even made sense to me in those early days of discovery any laying over of any end time prophesy today.

But the irony angle seems to actually answer quite a bit. I don't share this to invite others into a journey with irony. Even if it is true, God deals with us differently. And that would likely mean that even what i tend to notice about irony, even if it is true, may possibly be more for me than others or for others to agree to it. For God has wired us differently.

So for the interest of clarity, here is an example: There are quite a few things that throw me off about Trump. I mean i believe he is being used by God in some prophetic way concerning Israel. But anything outside of that, for me, has quite a hill to climb to merit that. However, I did notice an Andy Woods video that very recently came out. And it surprised me, the title. I don't know exactly what Andy would say for i have not watched it myself. I'm just posting it because it is an example that Trump does raise eyebrows.

The kicker: I had to ask myself, "Why might God include Syria and a former leader in Al Qaeda in working with the USA?" One pragmatic answer would be: Iran. Which makes sense. Syria is not interested in partnering with Iran. So there is that. But still, a terrorist with a recent bounty on his head as a terrorists visits the white house? lol. That sounds pretty bad. But perhaps not as bad as where that sort of thing leads me to think like.

There was a movie that came out decades ago with Eddie Murphey called Trading Places. There was also a common understanding among various social groups to question in our post modern era: Which is more ethical...the laws of street gang war fair ethics, or the polite society that can often be fake or disingenuous? That theory would point out that the laws of the jungle might be more respectable than perhaps the corporate working class back stabbing that occurs in "polite" society.

I bring that up not to suggest we do street jungle ethics (where devotion can be the only law to count on--but would seem perhaps a bit higher on the street because of tha nature of its necessary survival), but as a set-up for irony. So here is where my views will likely seem rather pedestrian or very low in street smarts or both perhaps. But it would just seem that we have 2 main classes in operation today (there are of course so many more...but for the sake of brevity if not already to late for that...lol): Class 1) Old school nationalist. And 2) Neo globalism. If this is accurate, then Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa leader might be rep of old school nationalism. If the enemy of our enemy is our friend matters, then it would make sense that God could imply by this (should globalism further collapse) that there is such a radical global shift afoot, that even the street gangs come against the polite society of globalism. When looked at this way, the irony might matter quite a bit. And brings living color as to this divide even by shock-jock radio tactics (i.e. -- a street thug that represents nationalism is more at play possibly today than the mature, sophisticated and wide spread operation of globalism).

Based on those simple (very simple...likely too simply...lol) principles, it could be that Syria is somewhat like a David to the globalist Goliath (metaphorically speaking). Like this could be totally wrong, but the way i understand Iran in this equation is that they are what globalism would have wanted for North Korea. Pit Bull lapdogs to infuse chaos, mayhem and war. And use of Syria to unite against Iran is a move against globalism, as far as I can tell.

So if something like that is accurate or near accurate, Syria coming to the white house might be more of a tap on the shoulder about considering how serious the level of globalist confrontation is on the rise in our world. For its ability to firestart discussions about what the heck that is and why it might be going on is at a remarkably high level.. But it would make sense as an underscoring of the age we are leaning into becoming here. The fact that Ahmed is historically Al Qaeda could tend to be a bad dream hard to wake up from. And i believe it could imply highlighting that issue. Almost like: To the degree Ahmed is a shocker to have visited the white house, might be a good time to consider how the lines in the sand are drawn. And this division forming if that R E A L. And if so, its pretty loud too to get the point across lol. "Yall keep your eyes on Nationalism vs. Globalism...to the degree a street punk is honored by the USA Whitehouse as a nation state leader. Yes, to that degree." If true. Just saying. Though it might be interesting to consider or even marginally contemplate. Blessings.
 
Brother, I took the time today to slowly and carefully read your entire post. Very interesting conjecture/hypothesis. I actually found myself tracking with you.:fear:(I'm just kidding with the emoji. ) What I have come to appreciate about your posts in general is that they are not an echo chamber of common understandings. They open me to fresh ways of thinking. Yes, your verbiage at times can be difficult, even frustrating; but the effort to follow you is always interesting and sometimes radically thought-provoking.Thank you.

Wow thanks so much pastor. I really appreciate your thoughts and consideration of where I am trying to come from with sometimes difficult and nuanced ideas. One of the many blessings this forum has been for me is to challenge me to do better with how i express things. That and keeping it shorter lol. For the most part, my longer posts are becoming less the norm and more the acceptation hopefully. And i will strive to bring this blessed forum family what i understand to be value in brevity where-ever possible. And in that same breath am hopeful that, as in this latest post, it can be difficult to express what I tried above in much shorter ways...and it still make sense to any degree on any level.

So thanks brother for the encouragement. :) Very appreciated and encourages me to still refine in His love. Amen. Blessings.

Mamdani revokes IHRA antisemitism definition on day 1, amid broad rejection of Adams orders​

NYC mayor nullifies swath of predecessor’s actions, including some related to Jewish community, while keeping Office to Combat Antisemitism
By Luke Tress

Today, 4:49 am

"NEW YORK — In one of his first acts in office on Thursday, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani revoked the city’s implementation of an antisemitism definition that includes some forms of Israel criticism, in a sweeping rejection of his predecessor’s executive orders.
The mass revocation of those executive orders also canceled other pro-Israel measures taken by the former mayor, Eric Adams.
Mamdani, a far-left anti-Zionist, took office with the start of the new year, replacing Adams’s staunchly pro-Israel administration."

"Mamdani’s sweeping revocation covers Adams’s implementation of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism, which says that some forms of Israel criticism are antisemitic.
The definition has been adopted by a broad range of national and local governments worldwide as well as other institutions. It has also drawn opposition from those who say its inclusion of some forms of criticism of Israel chills legitimate political speech.
Adams ordered city agencies to use the IHRA definition in June.
The IHRA definition could have posed a problem for Mamdani because the definition says that denying the Jewish people the right to self-determination is discriminatory. Mamdani has repeatedly refused to recognize Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state.
The definition also says it is antisemitic to claim “that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor.”"

I pray that this isn't duplicated elsewhere, but given the large physical and cultural Jewish presence and history in New York City, if this can happen in NYC, it can (and will) be copied and implemented elsewhere.

7 And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass?
8 And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.
9 But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by.
10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
12 But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.
13 And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
14 Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:
15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.
17 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.
18 But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
19 In your patience possess ye your souls.
20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23 But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
29 And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;
30 When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand.
31 So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
32 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.
33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
Luke 21:7-3, KJV

Weaver said this "will mean that families, and white families especially, but some POC [people of color] families who are homeowners as well, are going to have a different relationship to property than the one that we currently have."

In response, U.S. Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon told Fox News that the "Civil Rights Division of the DOJ is on high alert as to the radical agenda promised by Mayor Mamdani, much of which is at odds with our federal Constitutional and civil rights norms."

I could not find information on whether or not Cea Weaver owns her own home, but her mother owns a very nice home.

I saw this yesterday and was just about to link article. What a load of hypocrites!
 
If you've watch the new NYC mayor for even 3 seconds of video since the swearing-in ceremony, you will easily have noticed that he DRIPS arrogance. But, it's his religion and social/political/economic/etc. ideology that is concern. We dealt with that level of arrogance from our 2008 to 2016 POTUS and many others. I wish all we had to deal with was their pride and cockiness.
