Pope Francis: Muslims Murdering Christians is a Testament to ‘Peaceful Coexistence’, by Andy Roman, December 14, 2018.
“Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.” Matthew 15:14.
Pope Francis recently made a statement during a special mass he performed for Christians who were murdered for their faith. This ceremony was supposed to commemorate their lives. Instead, Pope Francis used this tragic event to push his ecumenical message. He called this killing a “testament” to the “peaceful coexistence between Muslims and Christians.”
The Catholic Register reported the following on December 10, 2018:
“The lives of 19 religious men and women martyred (by Muslims) during the Algerian civil war are a testament to God’s plan of love and peaceful coexistence between Christians and Muslims, Pope Francis said.” [1]
It is disturbing to know that a special mass meant to commemorate the senseless sacrifice of human lives was instead used to push the wishful, misguided, liberal thinking of “peaceful coexistence” with murderous thugs. These people were murdered for their faith, so no, this isn’t a testament to “peaceful coexistence.” They aren’t “testaments,” they are victims of a horrific murder. They were tortured and killed for not being Muslims and for refusing to convert to Islam.
The Pope needs to actually read the Quran, study history and actually look at the facts because Islam has never lived peacefully and equally with any other religion. And it never will. According to the Quran, Islam commands Muslims to spread the faith throughout the world, until, everyone is either converted or dead:
“And when the forbidden months have passed, kill the idolaters wherever you find them and take them prisoners, and beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they repent and observe Prayer and pay the Zakat, then leave their way free. Surely, Allah is Most Forgiving, Merciful.” (Quran, Surah 9:5). [2]
“Fight them, that Allah may punish them at your hands, and humiliate them, and help you to victory over them, and relieve the minds of a people who believe.” (Quran, Surah 9:14). [3]
“Fight those from among the People of the Book who believe not in Allah, nor in the Last Day, nor hold as unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have declared to be unlawful, nor follow the true religion, until they pay the tax with their own hand and acknowledge their subjection.” (Quran, Surah 9:29). [4]
“And the Jews say, Ezra is the son of Allah, and the Christians say, the Messiah is the son of Allah; that is what they say with their mouths. They imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before them. Allah’s curse be on them! How are they turned away!” (Quran, Surah 9:30). [5]
“If you do not go forth to fight, He will punish you with a painful punishment, and will choose in your stead a people other than you, and you shall do Him no harm at all. And Allah has full power over all things.” (Quran, Surah 9:39). [6]
Christians are being beheaded for their faith and these acts, according to Pope Francis, will somehow help Christians and Muslims live in peace and harmony, happily ever after? Or does the pope mean that only after every true Christian is killed that a time of peace is coming to our earth.
So while Pope Francis was calling for dialog and harmony with Muslims and while he characterized these murders as a “great sign of brotherhood” [7] here in America President Trump signed a law to financially help Christians being killed in foreign countries and to actually bring the perpetrators of these terrible crimes to justice. [8]
This inaction on the part of Rome towards the murder of Christians is incomprehensible. Christians in China, India, Africa and the Middle East are being tortured and killed daily. We must pray; but we must also work in harmony with our prayers to end this violence.
I can't help but wonder if all this revolting antisemitism is part of the call for the Jewish people to return back to Israel. I love the Jewish people, I have quite a percentage of Jew in me. But the Bible says God will bring His people back to His land, Israel. I admire Sharri, she is amazing. There will be nothing happen to the people who did this to the synagogue. Our Government is a total disgrace
All this militant anti-Semitism is rooted in race, the Hebrew race, rather than merely "Jewish" religion. The Nazis persecuted the Jews for entirely racial reasons, no matter what religion, if any, the individual Jew practised. It is the same in our time. It is race hate! There are other religions here, some of them are completely off the carpet, but nobody is hounded over even the strangest beliefs.
Thank you again James for an outstanding presentation and your courage in speaking out in support of our Jewish community. Unfortunately we have a mealy mouthed woke PM who is a spineless popularity seeking little human being - I do question his manhood! As for our Foreign Minister, words fail me and I have not seen any press on her opinions, support or otherwise - another abysmal failure in our current federal government and she is only one member of an incompetent and weak Anal led cabinet. I can only hope and pray that the Australian voting populace is sensible enough to get rid of this uncoordinated misinformed rabble at our next election. As someone has already said, imagine what Anal would have said if it had been a mosque which had been attacked. My comfort is that God made a promise to Abraham all those years ago and that my God is forever faithful. Amen.
Thank you James and Sharri! It is a terrible indictment on our nation that it has come to this. We must do the right thing and get rid of such a government asap!
I always think of the sheep and goat judgement described in Revelation. What are we doing for Jews and Israel? Right now it would not be a good judgement for Australia. I am almost at the point of feeling ashamed of being Australian (I am a first generation Australian, my parents having migrated from Germany where they and my grandparents witnessed the horrific anti-semitism leading up to WW2)
Israel is fighting a war for democracy in the Middle East. So what is our nation doing? We certainly don’t want this brought to our continent. The election can’t come quickly enough.
So thank you James and Sharri for your strong voices.
"That persons" excuse for wiping Israel is that 150 other countries did . What a gutless invalid government is "that creature" leading .? Being wrong because 150 others are doesnt make it right . Begone you gutless maggots BEGONE .
Could you imagine the hysterical screech from the left if this was a mosque that was destroyed ?
That 'person "would be gnashing his teeth and puffing up like someone who had strength and conviction . I well remember when the Six Day War started a senior Jewish gentleman was concerned that the Jews would be annihilated n . An old mate of mine who spent a lot of time in what was to become Israel said that he neednt worry Those blokes will handle those bloody people without any worries at all Time to kick arse and take names .
We keep hearing blather about "... Israel has a right to defend itself". Just a RIGHT??? Israel has MORE than JUST a right! Israel has a God-given DUTY to defend itself and drive these savage, murdering heathens out of their infernal holes.
Yes just watched this on social media. Sharri as always - spot on. It’s heartbreaking what’s happening to our country. I don’t feel 100% safe in my own country. It’s awful. I refuse to go into the cbd. Even certain parts of Melbourne which have very high concentrations of greens and lefty labour supporters feel uncomfortable. Areas which were once fun to go to because they were left of centre are now seriously so woke and full of cent Semitic graffiti and stickers are no go zones Labour greens teals. They’re all the same and must go
What a great interview. Allowing Jew hating so freely on our streets and in the media is just plain wrong. I refuse to set foot in the CBD in Sydney and the main reason is the Jew hating barbarians on the streets. Now to see a synagogue burned is just like the 1930’s in Germany and rioting outside the Great Synagogue..What shameful governments we have. Weak and shameful policing. Those Jewish people giving the police and Jacinta Allan a hard time yesterday are completely in their rights to do so. I am ashamed of my country that our authorities allow an Academic to threaten media figures and the Jewish community and then act with so much weakness and complacency when death and destruction is called on the Jewish community every weekend in cities. And Albanese’s response- yet another whining platitude from a weak cringeworthy figure.
I love my country but despise the gutless creatures that pretend to" lead" I would bet that "person" would not approve visas for a planeload of Israelie war veterans to visit friends and relatives in Australia in case that they may be detrimental to "social cohesien"(ie kick arse and take names )
I pity all the normal people who live in Melbourne and Sydney. I've spent some months in Melbourne and Sydney - the worst period of my life. And that was even long before the Cronulla riots!
Cronulla worked . I have a cousin who lives in the "Shire "and he told me that you can go into Cronulla or to the beach and not see any of "those people "Let alone rampaging gangs of sub-humans spoiling everyones day out . Well done those chaps
I go the shire every week and we had to complain about a truck with barbarian flags parked in a one hour spot for several hours with hateful anti Israel signs. The police moved it on.
Thanks for focussing on this James. What a beautiful, strong woman Sharri is. I wanted to cry watching this. What has our country become? Albanese and Wong (and lots of others) have to go. 💔🇮🇱🇦🇺
Thank you James. Yes, you and Sharri and a few others occupy the space and hold the line extremely well on this all important issue. Bless your efforts.
