[1]       SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [VOL. 359A]
 
But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;   Acts 2:16, [authorized King James Bible; AV]
 
Yes, and the prophet Joel prophesied what would happen at the culmination of the end times at Joel 2:10 - 11, [AV] “The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:  11  And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?”  And Joel 2:31, [AV] “The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.” Clearly showing great will be the changes coming on the inhabited earth.

World will fall to Islam by 2025
 
In shah Allah, World will fall to Islam by 2025.Nobody should have any doubts in their minds that whole world will convert to Islam by 2025. Our great Islamic empire stretches from North Africa to South Asia. Once countries like Japan, South Korea and Singapore fall completely to Islam, we will have the required money power to spread our empire. Once countries like China and India fall to Islam, we will have the required arsenal also. Kafirs (non-believers) should remember that Pakistan and Iran already have enough nuclear weapons. We know exactly where to use them. Even if our jihadi brothers are able to get rid of 1% of kafirs every year, within 20 years, world will be able to get rid of nearly one fourth of the kafirs. In addition, our each Muslim sister gives birth to 10-15 children so that our religion grows in its size. We moderate Muslims have also been able to convert a lot of others to the only true religion in the world. So, our religion will become the biggest religion within next 10 years.The entire world should leave off its various stupid cultures and should embrace Islamic culture. Kafirs don't have a purpose in their life. They believe in a lot of foolish ideas like freedom of press, democracy, secularism, gender-equality, individual freedom,international peace, sports, music, movies, fashion etc. According to our religion all these things are forbidden.So we concentrate only on good things in our life. Once we have enough money and arsenal, we will conquer the west. Then the west will understand the true way of living. Some kafirs are today talking of Non-Muslim solidarity against the only true religion. How can kafirs belonging to different faiths unite? So, forget that stupidity. Understand one thing, even the funny organization called U.N bows before the Islamic empire. That's how strong we are. A number of citizens of Islamic empire are living in kafir empire.But only very few people from kafir empire are living in Islamic empire.This is one of our advantage.But the biggest advantage is that Islamic empire is oil rich whereas kafir empire has to depend upon Islamic empire for oil.Citizens of Islamic empire should be always confident that we will win over kafir empire.Once we conquer the west, our clerics will give the right punishment to those who criticize Islam.

[1]       SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [VOL. 361A]
 
Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;… The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.   Joel 2:1 and 31, [authorized King James Bible; AV]
 
The great tribulation that will occur at the culmination of the end times will be like nothing that has ever occurred on earth before as testified to at Malachi 4:1, [AV] “For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.”  And immediately after the great tribulation the conditions that will exist are foretold at Matthew 24:29 – 31, [AV] “Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:  30  And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.  31  And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.”

[2]       Islamic Hypocrisy at a Glance
 
THE IRRATIONAL REACTION TO TRUTH:
 
Members of Islam went irrationally insane over Pope Benedict XVI made remarks on 09/14/2006.    He quoted Emperor Manual II Paleologos of the Byzantine Empire on Islam.    As the International Hearld Tribune said, <<" Nothing could be further removed from the Constantinople of 1400. Manuel II and his predecessors had dedicated their lives to a battle they knew they must lose. Islam was on the offensive. The emperor was under siege, humiliated by Muslims and Roman Christians alike. He was at war, which is not conducive to trusting one's own reason, or the adversary's. So the real question is why the pope felt such cultural proximity with an emperor under siege, at war, humiliated, and on the losing side of history. [source - Erwan Lagadec International Herald Tribune, Published: September 24, 2006].
 
Clearly something was wrong here, Islam bills itself as a religion of peace, but Emperor Manual II Paleologos of the Byzantine Empire on Islam was dealing with the reality that Islam was not a religion of peace.    Islam was taking his empire by force and forcing all in areas it stole to convert by use of the proverbial sword and/or leave their own land which members of Islam stole.   Of course, members of Islam do not want to hear these facts, i.e., that they stole the land of the Byzantine Empire and forced all in Jihad to convert at the edge of the sword or leave, but truth should be made known even if it is by the leader of another group which also has committed many wrongs in the name of religion - its really the kettle calling the pot black situation.[reference - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia].
 
As the Wikipedia encyclopedia said, <<"The Pope Benedict XVI Islam controversy arose from a lecture delivered on 12 September 2006 by Pope Benedict XVI at the University of Regensburg in Germany. The pope had previously served as professor of theology at the university, and his lecture was entitled "Faith, Reason and the University - Memories and Reflections".
The lecture received much condemnation and praise from political and religious authorities. Many Islamic politicians and religious leaders registered their protest against what they said was an insulting mischaracterization of Islam, contained in the quotation by the pope of the following passage:
"Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached."
 
The passage originally appeared in the "Dialogue Held With A Certain Persian, the Worthy Mouterizes, in Anakara of Galatia"[3], written in 1391 as an expression of the views of the Byzantine emperor Manuel II Paleologus on such issues as forced conversion, holy war, and the relationship between faith and reason. [source - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia].
 
Also, members of Islam incorrectly blame the Catholic church for the Crusades, but conveniently overlook the fact that they, members of Islam actually lit the fuse for the Crusades, i.e., they conveniently ignore cause and effect[reference - Islam Does Not Know Difference Between Cause and Effect or Result: by Iris the Preacher]
 
 
Obviously Islam does NOT want the truth known per John 8:32, "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." (Authorized King James Bible; AV).  Their members went irrational insane over the Pope's quote and demanded apologies.   As the Telegraph noted, <<" But there was, of course. If the Pope had stuck to quoting Plato (which he did) to illustrate his point, he wouldn't now be in the position of, as the Muslim News put it, alienating a billion Muslims. His mistake was to cite a series of dialogues between a learned Byzantine emperor and a scholarly Persian Muslim about the truth of their respective religions, which was probably written while Constantinople was being besieged by the Turks. The emperor in question, Manuel II Paleologus, referred during the seventh dialogue to the Koran's teachings about spreading the faith by the sword. And this, said the emperor, could not come from God because violence was the opposite of reason, and God himself cannot act contrary to reason.">>.   Yet all that was said was true, Islam stole the lands and subjects of the Byzantine Empire and has never returned them, this is just plain wicked.
 
HYPOCRISY OF ISLAM:
 
Whereas, many in Islam went irrationally insane to the extent of even killing a priest over the Pope's quote of a Byzantine Emperor who was having his empire and subjects stolen from him by wicked members of Islam, they hypocritically remained absolutely silent when an Islamic cleric, Imam Abu Hamza al-Masri said, <<""Killing of the Kafir [an Islamic religious term usually rendered into English as "infidel"] for any reason you can say it is OK, even if there is no reason for it." He called on his followers to poison, ambush and kill non-believers and added: "You must have a stand with your heart, with your tongue, with your money, with your hand, with your sword, with your Kalashnikov. Don't ask shall I do this, just do it." [source - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia].
 
No mass outcry by Islam over this call for violence as over the Pope's simple quote of a Byzantine Emperor who was having all that was his stolen from him by members of Islam, yet this Imam's statements were a call for murder.   He even went on to call for the murder of merchants in the spirits business as follows, <<"Of licensors for alcohol sellers he said: "Make sure that the person who gave him the licence for that wine shop doesn't exist any more on the Earth. Finish him up. Give him dawa (inviting non-Muslims to accept the truth of Islam). If he doesn't respect dawa, kill him."  [source - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia].">>, a clear showing of none respect for the basic human right of freedom of conscience, and the rights of others.   <<"He suggested that people coined the term suicide attack to put others off it. "It is not called suicide - this is called shahada, martyring, because if the only way to hurt the enemies of Islam except by taking your life for that, then it is allowed," adding: "The person who hinders Allah's rule, this man must be eliminated"."[source - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia].>>.
 
Very few members of Islam protested what this Islamic Cleric said which was both criminal and wicked and we saw zero irrational insane protest over it.   Even when he went on trial, no protest against his wickedness by members of Islam.   To wit, <<"In January 2006 while on trial, he accused the Jewish people of being "blasphemous, treacherous and dirty" and explained that this was "why Hitler was sent into the world". He also called for "a world dominated by a caliph, sitting in the White House". Whilst under cross-examination Hamza claimed the Jews control the Foreign Office, the media and the money supply in Britain and the USA. [source - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia].>>.
 
Did this very inflammatory diatribe bring Islamic protest, NO.   So we can see from this contrast of what the Pope said which was just a quote with the wicked inflammatory diatribe and the reactions to both that members of Islam are definitely hypocritical in that they reacted with  irrational insane vigor to just a quote by the Pope, yet did not react forcefully to a very inflammatory well publicized wicked diatribe of one of their own.   Speaks volumes with respect their false claim that Islam is a peaceful religion.

Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.  10  The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.   Proverbs 9:9 – 10, [authorized King James Bible; AV]
 
We do not want to displease our Creator, Almighty God (YHWH), and here are six steps that should be taken to please him as given in the Bible.
 
Step 1, John 17:3, [AV] “And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.”  [NOT FALSE GODS SUCH AS ODIM, THOR, ALLAH, ETC.]
 
Step 2, John 3:16, [AV] “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
 
Step 3, Luke 5:32, [AV] “I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
 
Step 4, Acts 3:19, [AV] “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;”
 
Step 5, Mark 8:8:34, [AV] “And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.”
 
Step 6, Matthew 28:19 - 20, [AV] “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:  20  Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”

[2]  The Fact on The Name "Allah"
 
It should not come as a surprise that the word "Allah" was not something invented by Muhammad or revealed for the first time in the Quran.
 
The well-known Middle East scholar H.A.R. Gibb has pointed out that the reason that Muhammad never had to explain who Allah was in the Quran is that his listeners had already heard about Allah long before Muhammad was ever born [Mohammedanism: An Historical Survey, New York: Mentor Books, 1955, p.38]
 
Dr. Arthur Jeffery, one of the foremost Western Islamic scholars in modern times and professor of Islamic and Middle East Studies at Columbia University, notes:
 
"The name Allah, as the Quran itself is witness, was well known in pre-Islamic Arabia. Indeed, both it and its feminine form, Allat, are found not infrequently among the theophorous names in inscriptions from North Africa" [Islam: Muhammad, and His Religion, New York: The Liberal Arts Press, 1958, p. 85]
 
The word "Allah" comes from the compound Arabic word, al-ilah. Al is the definite article "the" and ilah is an Arabic word for "god." It is not a foreign word. It is not even the Syriac word for God. It is pure Arabic. (There is an interesting discussion of the origins of Allah, in "Arabic Lexicographical Miscellanies" by J. Blau in the Journal of Semitic Studies, Vol. XVII, #2, 1972, pp. 173-190)[source - Arabic Lexicographical Miscellanies by J. Blau in the Journal of Semitic Studies, Vol. XVII, #2, 1972, pages 173-190]
 
Neither is Allah a Hebrew or Greek word for God as found in the Bible. Allah is a purely Arabic term used in reference to an Arabian deity. Hastings' Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics I:326, T & T Clark, states:
 
'"Allah" is a proper name, applicable only to their [Arabs'] peculiar God. '
 
According to the Encyclopedia of Religion:
 
'"Allah" is a pre-Islamic name . . . corresponding to the Babylonian Bel' [Encyclopedia of Religion, I:117 Washington DC, Corpus Pub., 1979]
 
For those who find it hard to believe that Allah was a pagan name for a peculiar pagan Arabian deity in pre-Islamic times, the following quotations may be helpful:
 
"Allah is found . . . in Arabic inscriptions prior to Islam" [Encyclopedia Britannica, I:643]
 
"The Arabs, before the time of Mohammed, accepted and worshipped, after a fashion, a supreme god called Allah" [Encyclopedia off Islam, I:302, Leiden: E.J. Brill, 1913, Houtsma]
 
"Allah was known to the pre-Islamic . . . Arabs; he was one of the Meccan deities" [Enyclopedia of Islam, I:406, ed. Gibb]
 
"Ilah . . . appears in pre-Islamic poetry . . . By frequency of usage, al-ilah was contracted to Allah, frequently attested to in pre-Islamic poetry" [Encyclopedia of Islam, III:1093, 1971]
 
"The name Allah goes back before Muhammad" [Encyclopedia of World Mythology and Legend, I:41, Anthony Mercatante, New York, The Facts on File, 1983]
 
"The origin of this (Allah) goes back to pre-Muslim times. Allah is not a common name meaning "God" (or a "god"), and the Muslim must use another word or form if he wishes to indicate any other than his own peculiar deity" [Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics, I:326, Hastings]
 
To the testimony of the above standard reference works, we add those of such scholars as Henry Preserved Smith of Harvard University who has stated:
 
"Allah was already known by name to the Arabs" [The Bible and Islam: or, The Influence of the Old and New Testament on the Religion of Mohammed, New York, Charles Scribner's Sons, 1897, p. 102].
 
Dr. Kenneth Cragg, former editor of the prestigious scholarly journal Muslim World and an outstanding modern Western Islamic scholar, whose works are generally published by Oxford University, comments:
 
"The name Allah is also evident in archeological and literary remains of pre-Islamic Arabia" [The Call of the Minaret, New York: Oxford University Press, 1956, p. 31].
 
Dr. W. Montgomery Watt, who was Professor of Arabic and Islamic Studies at Edinburgh University and Visiting Professor of Islamic studies at College de France, Georgetown University, and the University of Toronto, has done extensive work on the pre-Islamic concept of Allah. He concludes:
 
"In recent years I have become increasingly convinced that for an adequate understanding of the career of Muhammad and the origins of Islam great importance must be attached to the existence in Mecca of belief in Allah as a "high god." In a sense this is a form of paganism, but it is so different from paganism as commonly understood that it deserves separate treatment" [William Montgomery Watt, Muhammad's Mecca, p. vii. Also see his article, "Belief in a High God in Pre-Islamic Mecca", Journal of Semitic Studies, Vol. 16, 1971, pp. 35-40]
 
Caesar Farah in his book on Islam concludes his discussion of the pre-Islamic meaning of Allah by saying:
 
"There is no reason, therefore, to accept the idea that Allah passed to the Muslims from the Christians and Jews" [Islam: Beliefs and Observations, New York, Barrons, 1987, p. 28].
 
According to Middle East scholar E.M. Wherry, whose translation of the Quran is still used today, in pre-Islamic times Allah-worship, as well as the worship of Ba-al, were both astral religions in that they involved the worship of the sun, the moon, and the stars [A Comprehensive Commentary on the Quran, Osnabruck: Otto Zeller Verlag, 1973, p. 36].
 
Also, I have shown 'Allah' is a proper name for the Moon god, and the title for any god in Arabic is 'Ilah.' The title god in Arabic is 'Ilah,' and not Allah. 'Ilah' is a title; whereas, Allah is a proper name of a specific 'Ilah,' so get a dose of reality. Also, several New Testament Bibles in Arabic the title ' Ar-Rab' means "The Lord" is used.
 
APPENDIX:
 
[1]Interestingly, here are the meanings of several important words in Arabic:
 
Jesus in Arabic is Yesua
 
Word in Arabic is Kalam
 
Spirit in Arabic is Ruh
 
God in Arabic is Ilah
 
The in Arabic is El
 
[2] Astral Religions
In Arabia, the sun god was viewed as a female goddess and the moon as the male god. As has been pointed out by many scholars such as Alfred Guilluame, the moon god was called by various names, one of which was Allah! (Islam, p. 7).
 
The name Allah was used as the personal name of the moon god, in addition to other titles that could be given to him.
 
Allah, the moon god, was married to the sun goddess. Together they produced three goddesses who were called "the daughters of Allah." These three goddesses were called Al-Lat, Al-Uzza, and Manat.
 
The daughters of Allah, along with Allah and the sun goddess were viewed as "high" gods. That is, they were viewed as being at the top of the pantheon of Arabian deities.
 
"Along with Allah, however, they worshipped a host of lesser gods and "daughters of Al-lah" [SOURCE - Encyclopedia of World Mythology and Legend, I:61].
 
[3] The old middle eastern Moon god who has gone by many names is still well venerated. This is shown by "The Archeology of The Middle East" which states, "The religion of Islam has as its focus of worship a deity by the name of "Allah." The Muslims claim that Allah in pre-Islamic times was the biblical God of the Patriarchs, prophets, and apostles. The issue is thus one of continuity. Was "Allah" the biblical God or a pagan god in Arabia during pre-Islamic times? The Muslim's claim of continuity is essential to their attempt to convert Jews and Christians for if "Allah" is part of the flow of divine revelation in Scripture, then it is the next step in biblical religion. Thus we should all become Muslims. But, on the other hand, if Allah was a pre-Islamic pagan deity, then its core claim is refuted. Religious claims often fall before the results of hard sciences such as archeology. We can endlessly speculate about the past or go and dig it up and see what the evidence reveals. This is the only way to find out the truth concerning the origins of Allah. As we shall see, the hard evidence demonstrates that the god Allah was a pagan deity. In fact, he was the Moon-god who was married to the sun goddess and the stars were his daughters.
 
Archaeologists have uncovered temples to the Moon-god throughout the Middle East. From the mountains of Turkey to the banks of the Nile, the most wide-spread religion of the ancient world was the worship of the Moon-god. In the first literate civilization, the Sumerians have left us thousands of clay tablets in which they described their religious beliefs. As demonstrated by Sjoberg and Hall, the ancient Sumerians worshipped a Moon-god who was called many different names. The most popular names were Nanna, Suen and Asimbabbar. His symbol was the crescent moon. Given the amount of artifacts concerning the worship of this Moon-god, it is clear that this was the dominant religion in Sumeria. The cult of the Moon-god was the most popular religion throughout ancient Mesopotamia. The Assyrians, Babylonians, and the Akkadians took the word Suen and transformed it into the word Sin as their favorite name for the Moon-god. As Prof. Potts pointed out, "Sin is a name essentially Sumerian in origin which had been borrowed by the Semites." [source - The Archeology of the Middle East]"[additional references - "South Arabia's stellar religion has always been dominated by the Moon-god in various variations" (Berta Segall, The Iconography of Cosmic Kingship, the Art Bulletin, vol.xxxviii, 1956, p.77).; Isaac Rabinowitz, Aramaic Inscriptions of the Fifth Century, JNES, XV, 1956, pp.1-9; Edward Linski, The Goddess Atirat in Ancient Arabia, in Babylon and in Ugarit: Her Relation to the Moon-god and the Sun-goddess, Orientalia Lovaniensia Periodica, 3:101-9; H.J.Drivers, Iconography and Character of the Arab Goddess Allat, found in Études Preliminaries Aux Religions Orientales Dans L'Empire Roman, ed.

But Noah found favor in the eyes of Jehovah.  These are the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, and perfect in his generations: Noah walked with God. Genesis 6:8 – 9  [American Standard Version; ASV]
 
Because “Noah walked with the true God,” Jehovah instructed him to build a huge ark. (Gen. 6:14 - 16).   Its design was well-suited for the preservation of human and animal life. Obediently, “Noah did everything that Jehovah had commanded him,” and with the cooperation of his family, he completed the building work in an organized way. After living things were brought into the ark, “Jehovah shut the door.”—Gen. 7:5, 16.
 
In 2370 B.C.E. when the Flood came, Jehovah “wiped every living thing from the surface of the earth,” but he kept faithful Noah and his family safe in the ark. (Gen. 7:23) Everyone on earth today is a descendant of Noah, his sons, and their wives. But all the faithless people outside the ark perished because they had refused to listen to Noah, “a preacher of righteousness.”—2 Pet. 2:5.

As 1 Corinthians 11:1-2 clearly shows, we should all become genuine true followers of Jesus (Yeshua) Christ not only in name but in reality, “Be ye imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ.  2  Now I praise you that ye remember me in all things, and hold fast the traditions, even as I delivered them to you.” (American Standard Version; ASV).   If we do so, we will be strengthened by the true God, Almighty God (YHWH), to resist trials and tribulations brought against us by worshippers of false god(s) as shown by Isaiah 41:10, “Fear thou not, for I am with thee; be not dismayed, for I am thy God; I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” (ASV).
 
If we do so, 1 Timothy 4:16 brings out, “Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.” (ASV), we can save both ourselves and those who listen to us.   Of course this requires exposing false religious beliefs and false gods which is of course in line with love of neighbor.
 
Now all need to be showing love to their neighbors including Jews and telling them of the first step toward salvation given at John 14:6, "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." (AV).   Messages of hate assist no one in learning the truth per John 8:32, "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (Authorized King James Bible; AV).
 
Take my post for example, they have a worthy objective; to wit, exposing false doctrine so individuals can correct their wrong path. My post are NOT ones of hate, as are many of others, but ones that expose false doctrine and wrong practice.   All should read them instead of posting false accusations, as you will find not one word of hate or bashing in my articles, only truth.   They are posted to assist all in knowing the truth, per John 8:32, and to assist all in making a change in their lives by getting out of groups and/or religions that practice false doctrine and wrong practices.
 
All need to learn about love and that includes warning others with respect false doctrine and wrong practices instead of thinking of hate such as those examples you mentioned,
 
<<<”Love is patient and is kind, love does not envy. Love does not brag, is not proud, does not behave itself inappropriately, does not seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil. does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth. bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things... I Corinthians 13
 
Love is the power of faith. Faith needs love to be made perfect, because perfect faith results in faithfullness and faithfullness is a work of love. Faith and love go hand in hand because faith wants to believe, just as love trusts, faith sees through the darkness and weathers the storm, just as love endures all things, and faith seeks to put God first just as love always gives. 1 Corinthians 13 :4-7 Our faith is not just knowledge about God but a personal relationship with Him as Lord, and any relationship requires love to succeed, to endure trials and to grow, including our relationships with one another because we are called to be family in the Lord and to love one another. The perfect example of faith powered by love is seen in the life of Jesus Christ, who manifests Gods love ...
 
Because love is the power of faith we should focus on love, seize it and cultivate it... and we can because God is love, and He imparts that love to us when we draw near to Him as the scripture says... whatever touches what is holy shall become holy Leviticus 6:27, and love is of the Holy Spirit. By faith we draw near to God through sincere prayer, entering into His presence, because when Jesus died on the cross, the temple curtain separating God and man was torn in two from top to bottom... Mathew 27:51 Gods promise says that if we draw near to Him then He will draw near to us, James 4:8 and when He who is Holy draws near to us then our spirits are sanctified by His Holy Spirit as His holiness is imparted to our spirits. If we allow God to fill our hearts with His Holy Spirit then we are filled with the love of God because love is the pre-eminate characteristic of God's holiness. Because God is the source of our love, love is the fruit of faith... Galatians 5: 22
 
When we submit to the love of God we have combined faith with love and have the power to fulfill the royal law, which is to love the Lord with all our heart, mind and soul... Mathew 22:37-39 If we keep the royal law James 2:8 we are being faithful and are perfecting faith by faithfullness... James 2:22 If we love God we will seek to please Him and keep the royal law because the royal law embraces Gods will and all of His commandments. Without love we can't fulfill the royal law because we can't love the Lord unless we have love. To manifest the love of God is to overcome sin, whereas to not manifest the love of God is to sin. For the royal law is not to know about the Lord, but to love the Lord... and to love one another as ourselves. We can't do one without the other, because we can't truly love God whom we can't see if we don't love mankind who is made in the image of God. When we love one another we are manifesting our love for God whom we can't see by loving His image. If we love one another then we also love God because we can't love the reflection without loving its source. And if we love God we will love Jesus Christ and allow Him to reign in our hearts, keepings all of His commandments John 14:21 by subduing the will and power of the flesh through the power of the Holy Spirit, so that faith working through love does the will of God by turning the thought into reality which pleases Him and fulfills the royal law...
 
Faith without love is incomplete, residing only in the mind as knowledge, and knowledge of Gods will alone can not perfect us by saving us from sin but allowing Jesus Christ to reign in our hearts. If knowledge of Gods will alone could save us then salvation would have been through the law of Moses or even a Christian law handed down by Jesus, and there would not have been any need for Christ to die for our sins Galatians 2:21 and dwell in our hearts. If Jesus reigns in our hearts then the love of Christ also reigns because He is the manifestation of Gods love. The heart without the love of God does not have Jesus Christ and the soul without the Spirit of Christ is not born again Romans 8:9 and cannot be perfected by being transformed into the likeness of Jesus Christ which is true salvation and the result of faith. But the soul which manifests the love of God has been washed clean by the Holy Spirit Romans 15:16 and manifests the spirit and glory of Jesus Christ...

NOW WHAT DOES THE BIBLE REALLY TEACH:
 
As James 4:8 brings out, “Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye doubleminded” (ASV), we must draw near to Almighty God (YHWH), and of course this would include gaining an accurate understanding of exactly what the Bible really teaches and not what others falsely claim that it teaches.  And this need to gain an accurate understanding of what God’s word really teaches and not to be mislead by religious leaders is clearly brought out at Acts 17:10-11, “And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Beroea: who when they were come thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.  11  Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of the mind, examining the Scriptures daily, whether these things were so.” (ASV).  
 
Remember as shown at Acts 3:6 the Apostle Peter brings out an important truth, “But Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but what I have, that give I thee. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” (ASV).   In fact the early genuine true followers were given the name “the way” as they truthfully taught what the Bible really teaches as brought out by Acts 19:23, “And about that time there arose no small stir concerning the Way.” (ASV).  This fact, that we should follow the example of the Christ is highlighted at 1 Peter 2:21 as follows, “For hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that ye should follow his steps:” (ASV).  
 
This need to know accurately the ‘way’ was illustrated by the example given at Acts 18:24-28,  “And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.  25  This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.  26  And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly.  27  And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he was come, helped them much which had believed through grace:  28  For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.” (ASV).   Here disciples of Christ lovingly assisted this gentlemen, Apollos, to accurately know what the Bible teaches.
 
In fact John 18:28-37, “They lead Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Praetorium: and it was early; and they themselves entered not into the Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover.  29  Pilate therefore went out unto them, and saith, What accusation bring ye against this man?  30  They answered and said unto him, If this man were not an evildoer, we should not have delivered him up unto thee.  31  Pilate therefore said unto them, Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law. The Jews said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:  32  that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying by what manner of death he should die.  33  Pilate therefore entered again into the Praetorium, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?  34  Jesus answered, Sayest thou this of thyself, or did others tell it thee concerning me?  35  Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?  36  Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.  37  Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end have I been born, and to this end am I come into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.” (ASV).  Was to do the will of his Father, Almighty God (YHWH), and to make the will of his Father known to the people.
 
And at Deuteronomy 30:1-20, Moses made it clear that all those walking in the way of truth with respect their creator, Almighty God (YHWH), would be blessed and protected – not necessarily delivered from their persecutors, as follows, “And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither Jehovah thy God hath driven thee,  2  and shalt return unto Jehovah thy God, and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul;  3  that then Jehovah thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the peoples, whither Jehovah thy God hath scattered thee.  4  If any of thine outcasts be in the uttermost parts of heaven, from thence will Jehovah thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee:  5  and Jehovah thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.  6  And Jehovah thy God will circumcise thy heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.  7  And Jehovah thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, that persecuted thee.  8  And thou shalt return and obey the voice of Jehovah, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.  9  And Jehovah thy God will make thee plenteous in all the work of thy hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, for good: for Jehovah will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers;  10  if thou shalt obey the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law; if thou turn unto Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.  11 ¶  For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not too hard for thee, neither is it far off.  12  It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?  13  Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?  14  But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.  15 ¶  See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;  16  in that I command thee this day to love Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, that thou mayest live and multiply, and that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in the land whither thou goest in to possess it.  17  But if thy heart turn away, and thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;  18  I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish; ye shall not prolong your days in the land, whither thou passest over the Jordan to go in to possess it.  19  I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before thee life and death, the blessing and the curse: therefore choose life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed;  20  to love Jehovah thy God, to obey his voice, and to cleave unto him; for he is thy life, and the length of thy days; that thou mayest dwell in the land which Jehovah sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.” (ASV).
 
Isaiah 64:8 clearly shows we are the created and that the creator molded us, “But now, O Jehovah, thou art our Father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.” (ASV).  So therefore we should seek to find out what his will for us is.   This reality or fact is highlighted by Psalms 8:1-9 as follows, “O Jehovah, our Lord, How excellent is thy name in all the earth, Who hast set thy glory upon the heavens!  2  Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou established strength, Because of thine adversaries, That thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.  3 ¶  When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, The moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;  4  What is man, that thou art mindful of him? And the son of man, that thou visitest him?  5  For thou hast made him but little lower than God, And crownest him with glory and honor.  6  Thou makest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; Thou hast put all things under his feet:  7  All sheep and oxen, Yea, and the beasts of the field,  8  The birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, Whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.  9  O Jehovah, our Lord, How excellent is thy name in all the earth!” (ASV).   In fact, there is actually a book called, “What Does the Bible Really Teach” that highlights the need to learn what is really in the Bible as differentiated from what claim is in there.
 
Now let’s deal with why worshippers of false god(s) must use false conspiracy theories to cover us the errors of their false form of worship.
 
WORSHIPPERS OF FALSE GOD(S) MUST USE CONSPIRACY THEORIES TO COVER-UP FOR WRONG DOING:
 
Since worshippers of false god(s) are being mislead by many of their religious leaders into very wicked and evil wrong doings it becomes absolutely necessary for many of their followers to come up with complicated conspiracy theories to cover up these gross wicked acts.   No where is this more evident than the many conspiracy theories and other cover up data than in the well known example of the 9/11/2001 attack of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon by the cohorts of the very evil and wicked Muslim religious leader, Sheik Osama bin Ladin.
 
But of course this wicked and evil religious leader is just one example of the reality that these religious leaders are NOT being governed by what their particular holy book says.   It, of course, is not what either the Bible or the distorted Bible knockoff the Qur'an actually say, but how religious leaders be they priest and/or imams or muftis or what ever teach the people is the interpretation of what is written either in the Bible or the distorted Bible knockoff the Qur'an that matters and governs actions.   It matters not what the Bible and/or the distorted Bible knockoff really say.   People go by what they are taught by their religious leaders.   Take the genocide committed by the Roman Catholic Church at the direction of their supreme religious leader, the pope, what mattered was NOT that the Bible clearly said at Exodus 20:13, "Thou shalt not kill." (Authorized King James Bible; AV), but what their religious leaders told them.   Therefore, it is the religion at fault, irregardless of what their particular holy book, be it the Bible or the distorted Bible knockoff the Qur'an may say.   Neither is so called Christianity or in Islam are most individuals actions really governed in any way by what their particular holy book really says, but they are governed by the interpretation of their religious leaders.   Thus, knowing this reality, one would be either just plain stupid and/or dumb to even bother looking at a particular religion's holy book and expect the members would conform to it.   Take the Rig Vede and find me for example of a Hindu actually conforming to it instead of the interpretation given to it by his/her religious leaders, like looking for a needle in the haystack per K.S. Lal, India's greatest historian.
 
 
 
So we would expect that worshippers of false god(s) would be confronted by bitter truths they do not want to confront and/or deal with by the wicked and evil acts of their religious leaders.  So what do they do?   They invent various conspiracy theories to cover-up their religious leaders evil and wicked acts instead of doing something to put a stop to them.  In fact, they invent so many conspiracy theories to cover-up these dastardly acts that they can not face up to that they even start believing their own stupid cover-up conspiracy theories.  In order to support their dumb conspiracy theories they invent outright impossible nonsense.
 
Now let’s look at some of their conspiracy theories:
 
Example #1, The implication that the World Trade Center (WTC) was brought down by a controlled demolition and not by being hit by fuel loaded planes, in the words of a conspiracy monger who worships a false god.
 
" It was not struck by an aircraft as the Twin Towers were and video of the collapse appears to resemble those of buildings brought down by a controlled demolition."
 
Now of course it takes months of very careful preparation to do a controlled demolition of a tall building in which many holes are made at exact points and detonation wire and prima cord are carefully placed throughout the building.  In fact, the building being primed for controlled demolition takes on the looks of a giant piece of Swiss cheese with detonation wire and prima cord everywhere so there would have been no possibility of this in the case of the WTC.
 
In addition, there were many continuous photographs of the two different planes actually hitting the two buildings which this dumb conspiracy theory overlooks.   Clearly conspiracy weavers of this type are just trying to cover-up for the wrong doing of some of their religious leaders.
 
Example #2, The making of absurd, but impossible claims in an attempt at cover-up such as the following,
 
"An astounding video uncovered from the archives today shows the BBC reporting on the collapse of WTC Building 7 over twenty minutes before it fell at 5:20pm on the afternoon of 9/11. The incredible footage shows BBC reporter Jane Standley talking about the collapse of the Salomon Brothers Building while it remains standing in the live shot behind her head.
 
Minutes before the actual collapse of the building is due, the feed to the reporter mysteriously dies"
 
Of course such an event never occurred but exist only as an imagination in the mind of the conspiracy weaver and those believing him.  Such nonsense, though completely false, is used to weave conspiracy theories by worshippers of false god(s) to cover-up for the wrong doings of some of their religious leaders.  But if one can believe in the mythical old middle eastern celestial mood god, "Allah," and other false god(s) it becomes easy to believe conspiracy theory nonsense no matter how implausible or impossible it is of having any truth in it.
 
Example #3, I brought out how the passenger manifesto for the various, four, planes used in the attack clearly showed quite a few Muslim names.  As follows from information from an encyclopedia,
 
 
<<<”The passport of Satam al Suqami was recovered near the World Trade Center site, reportedly a few blocks from where the World Trade Center's twin towers once stood. [17][18]; a passerby picked it up and gave it to a NYPD detective shortly before the World Trade Center towers collapsed.
 
The passports of two other suspected hijackers, Ziad Jarrah and Saeed al Ghamdi, were recovered from the crash site of United Airlines flight 93 in Pennsylvania, and a fourth passport, that of Abdul Aziz al Omari was recovered from luggage that did not make it onto American Airlines Flight 11
 
United Airlines Flight 175: Marwan al-Shehhi (from the United Arab Emirates), Fayez Banihammad (from the United Arab Emirates), Mohand al-Shehri (Saudi Arabian), Hamza al-Ghamdi (Saudi Arabian), Ahmed al-Ghamdi (Saudi Arabian). They were the only people with Arabic names on the flight.  [[Note, some may have been flying under assumed names and with false documentation.]]
 
American Airlines Flight 11: Mohamed Atta al Sayed (Egyptian), Waleed al-Shehri (Saudi Arabian), Wail al-Shehri (Saudi Arabian), Abdulaziz al-Omari (Saudi Arabian), Satam al-Suqami (Saudi Arabian). There was only one other passenger with an Arabic name who was ruled out as having any role. [[Note, some may have been flying under assumed names and with false documentation.]]
 
United Airlines Flight 93: Ziad Jarrah (Lebanese), Ahmed al-Haznawi (Saudi Arabian), Ahmed al-Nami (Saudi Arabian), Saeed al-Ghamdi (Saudi Arabian). They were the only people with Arabic names on the flight. [[Note, some may have been flying under assumed names and with false documentation.]]
 
American Airlines Flight 77: Hani Hanjour (Saudi Arabian), Khalid al-Mihdhar (Saudi Arabian), Majed Moqed (Saudi Arabian), Nawaf al-Hazmi (Saudi Arabian), Salem al-Hazmi (Saudi Arabian). There was one other passenger with an Arabic name who was ruled out as having any role. [[Note, some may have been flying under assumed names and with false documentation.]]
[source - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, at, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offical_hijackers_of_the_2001_attacks]
 
Yet one conspiracy weaver who believes in false god(s) actually said the following nonsense,
 
“Regarding the passengers manifest, air ticket and hijackers, I think you have not even fly before. That is why you contradict yourself with the arabs bought tickets, the names not on the manifest since they are hijackers bla bla bla( Smile). Mr professor, know you facts before you open your mouth. Otherwise you look dumber and dumber everytime (giggle)..”
 
Of course this is utter nonsense as to fact and the false claim that I have never flown.  In fact, I am well acquainted with American air line procedures as I must deal with them every time I fly home to my native village in my home country.
 
Example #4, His absurd claim that no plane ever hit the Pentagon and that the FBI lied when it got two or three names mixed up due to unfamiliarity with strange foreign names,
 
“The FBI lied about the hijackers names, FBI lied about the calls. So why should we believe anything the at FBI said on 9/11? We are going to expose more lies. And Iris is happy that FBI lies as long as FBI said its done by Muslims (giggle). We will show later even there were no planes hitting pentagon and crash in Pennsylvania. Lets turn our attention to WTC 7:”
 
First, as we all well know, that there are many suspects in any major case and that sometimes the FBI makes mistakes at first with respect names and in a case with strange similarly sounding foreign, none English names, it would be expected that the FBI would at first make some errors – and they did.  Now with respect calls from airplanes from cell phones or the airplane’s radio, in many cases these were recorded and I personally have listened to some of them so this conspiracy weaver is just telling just one more bold faced lie.   With respect a plane hitting the Pentagon, let’s look at the evidence, the reality,
 
Second, with respect the Pentagon, <<<” The Pentagon was designed in the early 40's and was completed in only 16 months on Jan 14, 1943. The shortages of materials required for war production raised many design and construction problems. The use of reinforced concrete in lieu of formed steel for the building made possible a saving of 43,000 tons of steel, more than enough to build a battleship. The use of concrete ramps rather than elevators further reduced steel requirements. Drainage pipes were concrete; ducts were fiber, interior doors were wood. An unusual wall design - concrete spandrels carried to window sill level - eliminated many miles of through-wall copper flashing.(Source1) (Source2)
 
...The exterior walls had been reinforced with steel beams and columns, bolted where they met at each floor. Some of these reinforced walls very near the point of impact remained in place for a half hour before collapsing, allowing uncounted hundreds to escape. "Had we not undertaken this effort," said Evey at a press briefing on September 15, "this could have been much, much worse."
 
...Looking At the Big Picture
 
From facts contained above, we can all agree that:
The length of the outside wall on any side of the pentagon is 921 feet.
The wingspan of a 757 is 124 feet 10 inches.
Now, everyone can agree that 921/125= roughly 7.4 right?
Given the size of the 757, and the size of the Pentagon, the damaged area fits in peftectly with the dimensions of both the aircraft and the building...
 
Here is the hole in the building - it's been reported by at least a dozen different sources (including conspiracy theory sites) to be a 16 to 20 foot hole. That is really interesting when you take into account the fact that the 757 body is 12 ft 4in wide and 13 ft 6in high. (Here is where I was mistaken in the past, like so very many others I was led astray by the HEIGHT of the aircraft, which is actually the measurement from the wheels-down to the tip of the tail. That measurement is for aircraft hangar clearance, not the SIZE of the aircraft.) The 757 is basically a cylinder that is 13 feet across. It then should not be surprising that it would create something around a thirteen foot hole in the side of the building...
 
Rim found at scene was double bead design as required by the NTSB.   Other remains of the plane were also found, such as a large chunk of the bulkhead, a tire of type used on this type of plane, Aux Power Unit, the 'Black Box', etc.
 
...In layman's terms the crash dynamics worked like so: A large hollow tube, with a belly full of luggage, a passenger bay with 60 people, and wings full of fuel smashed into the side of an almost solid object while moving at a tremendous speed (somewhere around 350-400mph). When the 225,000lb+ plane hit, it smashed apart with such force from the crash that it became like one massive column of liquid (no, the plane didn't melt or turn into liquid, it just acted like one physically - mountainslides act the same way, a million tons of rock acts like a large field of liquid during a landslide even if no water is present). All the small parts, luggage, people, seats, and all the tens of thousands of pounds of fuel acting like a massive river came crashing into the wall of the Pentagon. This force burst through the outside wall and flowed through the inside to the next wall, and momentum carried this mass until it finally ran out of inertia at the 3rd ring.
 
"Aydan Kizildrgli, an English language student who is a native of Turkey, saw the jetliner bank slightly then strike a western wall of the huge five-sided building that is the headquarters of the nation's military. 'There was a big boom,' he said. 'Everybody was in shock. I turned around to the car behind me and yelled "Did you see that?" Nobody could believe it.'"

"We were the only people, we think, who saw it live," Dan Creed said. He and two colleagues from Oracle software were stopped in a car near the Naval Annex, next to the Pentagon, when they saw the plane dive down and level off. "It was no more than 30 feet off the ground, and it was screaming. It was just screaming. It was nothing more than a guided missile at that point," Creed said. "I can still see the plane. I can still see it right now. It's just the most frightening thing in the world, going full speed, going full throttle, its wheels up," - Ahwatukee Foothill News
 
There are many more eyewitness accounts, but this is more than ample to blow away all the dumb conspiracy theories that 'nut cases' come up with.   Why do they come up with them?   For many reasons such as a wild imagination, not willing to accept reality - the facts, some are just clear out 'nut cases,' some want a little publicity, etc.

Example #5, Now this member of the dungy religion of Islam purpose is to divert attention away from what really happened to the WTC, and the reality about this dungy religion which is responsible for 95% of the violence in the world today.  He actually said the following bold face lie,
 
“- why are there no Arab names on the flight lists?”
 
Now this conspiracy weaver clearly shows he does NOT even know the difference between a hijacker – a very evil criminal – and his victims. His post only mentions the hijacker’s victims and NOT the hijackers – how utterly deceitful and stupid. Some are so stupid they do NOT even know how to read an official autopsy report, if it says victims of a crime, it means victims – simple.
 
Yet, Looking at United Airlines Flight 175
 
<<<”A United mechanic was called by a flight attendant who stated the crew had been murdered and the plane hijacked.
 
United Airlines Flight 175: Marwan al-Shehhi (from the United Arab Emirates), Fayez Banihammad (from the United Arab Emirates), Mohand al-Shehri (Saudi Arabian), Hamza al-Ghamdi (Saudi Arabian), Ahmed al-Ghamdi (Saudi Arabian). They were the only people with Arabic names on the flight.
 
Also, looking at United Airlines Flight 93
 
Jeremy Glick stated that the hijackers were Arabic-looking, wearing red headbands, carrying knives.[11][12]
 
Hijac ker Ziad Jarrah also mistakenly broadcast messages intended for passengers over the air traffic control system:
 
“ Keep remaining sitting. We have a bomb on board.
 
 
Uh, this is the captain. Would like you all to remain seated. There is a bomb aboard and are going back to the airport, and to have our demands [unintelligible]. Please remain quiet.[13]
”
Jarr ah is also heard on the cockpit voice recorder.[14] …
 
The passport of Satam al Suqami was recovered near the World Trade Center site, reportedly a few blocks from where the World Trade Center's twin towers once stood. [17][18]; a passerby picked it up and gave it to a NYPD detective shortly before the World Trade Center towers collapsed. The passports of two other suspected hijackers, Ziad Jarrah and Saeed al Ghamdi, were recovered from the crash site of United Airlines flight 93 in Pennsylvania, and a fourth passport, that of Abdul Aziz al Omari was recovered from luggage that did not make it onto American Airlines Flight 11[19].

The September 11 attacks were carried out by 19 hijackers, with planning and organization of the attacks involving numerous additional members of al-Qaeda. The first hijackers to arrive in the United States were Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi, who settled in the San Diego area in January 2000. They were followed by Mohamed Atta, Marwan al-Shehhi, and Ziad Jarrah, who all arrived early in the summer of 2000, in order to undertake flight training in south Florida. The fourth pilot, Hani Hanjour, arrived in San Diego in December 2000. The other muscle hijackers, who were trained to help overpower and take over the aircraft, all arrived in the spring and early summer of 2001…
Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi were both experienced and respected jihadists in the eyes of al-Qaeda leader, Osama bin Laden. Mihdhar and Hazmi both had previous experience fighting on Bosnia, and had trained during the 1990s at camps in Afghanistan.[1] When Bin Laden committed to the September 11 attacks plot idea, he assigned both Mihdhar and Hazmi to the plot.[2] Both were so eager to participate in operations within the United States, that they obtained visas in April 1999.[3] Once selected, Mihdhar and Hazmi were sent to the Mes Aynak training camp in Afghanistan. In late 1999, Hazmi, Attash and Yemeni went to Karachi, Pakistan to see Mohammed, who instructed them on Western culture and travel; however, Mihdhar did not go to Karachi, instead returning to Yemen…[source - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia [source - http://en.wikipedia.org/w iki/Offical_hijackers_of_ the_2001_attacks]>>>.
 
Example #6, One worshipper of a false god claims that religious leader Muslim Sheik Osama bin Ladin is a good fellow who would NOT commit and/or order to any evil act.  But reality clearly shows just the opposite as follows,
 
The reality about the evil and wicked organization Al-Qaeda, led by Muslim Sheik Osama bin Ladin. Let the reality speak for itself. Yes, the FBI does not have a direct order from this wicked man to his cohorts to carry out 9/11, but the circumstantial evidence is overwelming.
 
<<<”Al-Qaed a, alternatively spelled al-Qaida and sometimesal-Qa'ida, (Arabic: ????????; al-q??idah; translation: The Base) is an international Sunni Islamic movement founded in 1988. Al-Qaeda have attacked civilian and military targets in various countries, the most notable being the September 11 attacks in 2001. These actions were followed by the US government launching a military and intelligence campaign against al-Qaeda called the War on Terror.
 
Characteristi c techniques include suicide attacks and simultaneous bombings of different targets.[4] Activities ascribed to it may involve members of the organization, who have taken a pledge of loyalty to Osama bin Laden, or the much more numerous "al-Qaeda-linked&quo t; individuals who have undergone training in one of its camps in Afghanistan or Sudan but not taken any pledge.[5] Al-Qaeda's objectives include the end of foreign influence in Muslim countries and the creation of a new Islamic caliphate. Reported beliefs include that a Christian-Jewish alliance is conspiring to destroy Islam,[6] and that the killing of bystanders and civilians is Islamically justified in jihad. Its management philosophy has been described as "centralization of decision and decentralization of execution."[7] Following 9/11 and the launching of the War on Terrorism, it is thought al-Qaeda's leadership has "become geographically isolated", leading to the "emergence of decentralized leadership" of regional groups using the al-Qaeda "brand name."[8][9]
 
Al- Qaeda has been labeled a terrorist organization by the United Nations Security Council,[10] the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Secretary General,[11][12] the Commission of the European Communities of the European Union,[13] the United States Department of State,[14] the Australian Government,[15] Government of India,[16] Public Safety Canada,[17] the Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs,[18] Japan's Diplomatic Bluebook,[19] South Korean Foreign Ministry,[20] the Dutch Military Intelligence and Security Service,[21] the United Kingdom Home Office,[22] Pakistan, Russia,[23] the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs,[24] and the Swiss Government.” [source - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, at http://en.wikipedia.org/w iki/Al-Qaeda]>>>.
 
Example #7, This worshipper of a false god uses yet another conspiracy weaving trick, that of trying to paint the victims as bad to try and excuse unforgivable wicked and evil actions by some of his religious leaders.  Now let’s look at an actual example,
 
“The author [[me]] lied about 911. And the author never denies that. In fact the author is playing dumb . So is that what you preach? LIES? (giggle).
 
Regard ing violence, there are plenty of crazy priest that abused nuns, history of abusive christians and mistreating native americans. (giggle). In fact, statistic shows USA tops the violence/crime record by 95000 compared to the lowest country. So the author has to present extra 90000 EXAMPLES just to make it 50% mark (giggle).

Yes, of course there are also many crazy priest and history if full of abuse by some claiming to be followers of Christ, but how in any way does this either justify wicked and evil acts by others or falsely charging others with lying when they are telling the truth?   Two wrongs never make a right, nor does falsely charging others with lying.
 
Therefore, as can be seen, evil conspiracy weavers are very busy trying to cover-up wrong doing by some of their religious leaders as they can not deal with reality, the truth per John 8:32, "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."  (Authorized King James Bible; AV).  Of course this should come as no surprise when you consider that these conspiracy weavers belong to a religious group revealed by an Australian newspaper as responsible for 90 to 95% of the world violence [[Actually this number may actually understate the reality as they may be responsible for a greater part of the violence]][source - The Weekend Australian, November 26-27, 2005 AD].
 
CONCLUSION:
 
As can be seen, there is NO TRUTH in the worshippers of false god(s), but there is a need on the part of all who wish to become genuine true followers of Jesus (Yeshua) Christ to learn what does the Bible really teach.

[2]       Large Religions are False Religions - Their Fruitage
 
INTRODUCTION:
 
No one should believe in any false doctrines and/or the groups that put them forth, in fact the two most numerous religions both believe in false doctrines.  Should we wonder at this?  No, as Jesus (Yeshua), the Isa, made clear that his genuine footstep followers would be few in number so this is to be expected. Jesus (Yeshua) clearly said that his true followers would be few in number, at Luke 13:24 and Matthew 7:13-14, it is in both of these that the road followed by true believers would be narrow and cramped, Luke 13:24, "Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able." (Authorized King James Bible: AV); And Matthew 7:13-14, "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, abroad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." (AV); thereby, clearly showing few would be entering the narrow gate "which leadeth unto life." In reality, it will be difficult for even true Christians to enter as testified to at 1 Peter 4:18, "And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear." (AV). In order to enter, we must have the right sort of guide, Luke 1:79, "To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace." (AV). Now, if one picks the wrong group, just because it is popular or the so called 'one to belong to in a community' and not because of Bible Truths, there is an important warning given at Matthew 15:14, "Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch." (AV). In fact, being with the wrong group can mean you are NOT having fellowship with the Son of God, Jesus (Yeshua) as testified to at 1 John 1:6, "If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not [have] the truth." (AV). This danger is made abundantly clear at Luke 12:32 when Jesus (Yeshua) spoke of his true followers as a little flock and not a large one, "Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom." (AV). Simply stated, his true followers will be relatively few in number which should cause all sincere individuals to question whether mainstream religion with its vast membership is heading for the narrow gate!
 
So of course neither of these two largest religious groups could be his true footstep followers.
 
WHAT IS A FALSE RELIGION?
 
Now what is a false religion?  Look around you, are you not distressed about the many crimes committed in the name of religion?   Doesn't acts of terrorism, stupid warfare, and corruption perpetrated by those groups and individuals who claim to serve the true God (YHWH) of Abraham, Isaac, and Ishmael, creator of all there is, offend your sense of justice?    Now the question is why is religion at the root of most of these problems?
 
Well simple, the root cause or fault does not lie with all religion, only with false religion.   A well known and respected figure, Jesus (Yeshua) Christ, the Isa, clearly showed that false religion only produces bad works, the same as a no-good tree can only produces worthless fruit per Matthew 7:15-20, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.  16  Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?  17  Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.  18  A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.  19  Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.  20  Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them." (AV).
 
Now look around at the fruit produced by two well known false religions, Islam and Catholicism.
 
First, let's deal with Catholicism, In 325 AD the greater part of the so called Christian faith went apostate to when the good favor of a pagan emperor, a worshipper of the Unconquered Sun.[1][2][3][4][5] And this branch of apostate Christians went on to commit many atrocities such as the rape of Goa, genocides, the Crusades - for which Islam really is to blame, the Inquisitions, the burning of individuals at the stake for disagreeing with them including one Bruno for simply saying that the earth revolved around the sun; whereas, they said the sun revolved around the earth." Many hold wrong opinions of ALL Christians. Why? Because they have generalized the actions and wrongs of the first group and incorrectly applied them to genuine footstep followers of Christ also.[6]
 
Second, let's deal with Islam.
 
The Weekend Australian (newspaper) had this to say on the matter,
<<"Did you know that 90-95% of the conflicts in the world today are Muslims fighting non-muslims or each other?
Islam is intolerant of other religions, so much so that Christians in Nigeria, Sudan and middle eastern countries are killed for practicing their religion. Muslims are also responsible for burning down their churches. Sydney has recently seen an attack on four churches for similar reasons. (December 16, 2005) How can we tolerate such intolerance?">>.[7]
 
Says it all, so clearly Islam should be redefined as something other than a religion. So it is very necessary that this greed and hate be addressed. Remember, Matthew 5:9, "Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God." (AV).
 
Let's consider the facts as continually revealed in the world news that shows if any thing that the newspaper editor may have been a little low when he said 95 percent of the violence in the world was caused by Muslims.  Here are some instances of terrorism by members of Islam:[7]
 
(1) World Trade Center - 9/11 - unprovoked attack and mass murder by Muslims.[8]
(2) London Subway Bombing by Muslims [9]
(3) Continued mosque bombings in Iraq by Muslims.[10]
(4) Suicide bombings in Israel by Muslims.[11]
(5) Suicide bombing of a wedding reception in Jordan by Muslims.[12]
(6) Daily roadside bombings in Iraq by Muslims.[13]
(7) Train bombings in Spain my Muslims.[14]
(8) Riots and car burnings and murders in France by Muslims.[15]
(9) Suicide bombings in Iraq by Muslims.[16]
(10) Car and truck bombings in Iraq by Muslims.[17]
(11) Unprovoked murder of 8 Israelis and the kidnapping of 2 by Muslims to provoke turmoil and violence in Lebanon and Israel by Muslims.[18]
(12) Unprovoked murder of 2 Israelis and the kidnapping of 1 by Muslims to provoke turmoil and violence in Gaza by Muslims.[19]
(13) Bombing of restaurants and cafes in Bali, Indonesia by Muslims.[20]
(14) Bombing of a trains in India by Muslims.[21]
(15) Take over of a grammar school in Russia resulting in the deaths of many students by Muslims.[22]
(16) Attempted shoebombing of a plain by a Muslim.[23]
(17) Conspiracy to bomb about 10 planes going from UK by Muslims.[24]
(18) Attempted murder of several Indian politicians in Kashmir by Muslims.[25]
(19) Many violent acts by Muslims in Afghanistan.[26]
(20) Murder of a girl by Shiite Muslims in Iran.[27]
(21) Conspiracy to bomb trains in Germany - as previously posted for you.[28]
(22) And the list could go on and on, get it?
 
BOTH HAVE FALSE GODS:
 
Interestingly neither worships the true God (YHWH) of Abraham, Isaac, and Ishmael, the creator of all there is.  One, apostate (counterfeit) Christians claims to but in actuality does NOT; whereas, the other worships the old middle eastern celestial Moon god, "Allah."
 
Let's first look at so called Christianity who falsely claim to worship the true God (YHWH) of Abraham, Isaac, and Ishmael, but actually worships a hybrid three-in-one god known as the Trinity - no where mentioned in the Bible.  To try and 'prove' this none Biblical god, Trinitarians use questionable translations of John 1:1, but conveniently miss the point that this is "a singular anarthrous predicate noun preceding the verb," that is, not just that the noun theos lacks the Greek definite article.  Similar Greek construction such Mark 6:49,
Mark 11:32, John 4:19, John 6:70, John 8:44a, John 8:44b, John 9:17, John 10:1,
John 10:13, John 10:33, John 12:6 as usually have an inserted either an "a" or "an" there in most translations.
 
But we need not get so technical as a quick application of logic to the usual questionable translational construct for John 1:1 quickly shows that it can in no way support a trinity god.  Let's look at why.  John 1:1, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.) (AV) - now to have a trinity of anything, one must have THREE like items and only two spirit creatures are mentioned, not three, hence no trinity.   In addition, someone can NOT be with someone and be that person also.
 
Now how did this false god get into so called Christianity?   Well it came about in 325 AD when a pagan Roman Emperor, Constantine, a wordhipper of the Unconquered Sun, wanted religious unity in his empire and called a church conference with the view of getting them to accept some pagan doctrines so he could bring about a fusion of so called Christianity with paganism.   This council went on a very long time and through coercion and political skull drudgery he finally got most of the attendees, bishops, to go along with what he wanted.   This amounted to most of the so called Christian church going apostate.[ 29 to 48].
 
Let's next look at Islam who falsely claim to worship the true God (YHWH) of Abraham, Isaac, and Ishmael, but actually worship the old middle eastern celestial Moon god, "Allah."
 
Dr. Arthur Jeffery, one of the foremost Western Islamic scholars in modern times and professor of Islamic and Middle East Studies at Columbia University, notes:
 
<<"The name Allah, as the Quran itself is witness, was well known in pre-Islamic Arabia. Indeed, both it and its feminine form, Allat, are found not infrequently among the theophorous names in inscriptions from North Africa">> [49].
 
The Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics, states, <<"The origin of this (Allah) goes back to pre-Muslim times. Allah is not a common name meaning "God" (or a "god"), and the Muslim must use another word or form if he wishes to indicate any other than his own peculiar deity">> [50].
 
The Encyclopedia of World Mythology and Legend, states, <<"The name Allah goes back before Muhammad">> [51].
 
And, <<"The word "Allah" comes from the compound Arabic word, al-ilah. Al is the definite article "the" and ilah is an Arabic word for "god." It is not a foreign word. It is not even the Syriac word for God. It is pure Arabic.">> [52]
 
And, Neither is Allah a Hebrew or Greek word for God as found in the Bible. Allah is a purely Arabic term used in reference to an Arabian deity.
 
Hastings' Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics I:326, T & T Clark, states:
<<"Allah" is a proper name, applicable only to their [Arabs'] peculiar God.">>'
[53]
 
<<"Pre-Islamic Arabia also had its stone deities. They were stone statues of shapeless volcanic or meteoric stones found in the deserts and believed to have been sent by astral deities. The most prominent deities were Hubal, the male god of the Ka'ba, and the three sister goddesses al-Lat, al-Manat, and al-Uzza; Muhammad's tribe, the Quraysh, thought these three goddesses to be the daughters of Allah. Hubal was the chief god of the Ka'ba among 360 other deities. He was a man-like statue whose body was made of red precious stone and whose arms were of solid gold.">> [54] (George W. Braswell, Jr., Islam Its Prophets, Peoples, Politics and Power" [Broadman & Holman Publishers, Nashville, TN; July, 1996], p. 44]
 
<<"The old middle eastern Moon god who has gone by many names is still well venerated. This is shown by "The Archeology of The Middle East" which states, "The religion of Islam has as its focus of worship a deity by the name of "Allah." The Muslims claim that Allah in pre-Islamic times was the biblical God of the Patriarchs, prophets, and apostles. The issue is thus one of continuity. Was "Allah" the biblical God or a pagan god in Arabia during pre-Islamic times? The Muslim's claim of continuity is essential to their attempt to convert Jews and Christians for if "Allah" is part of the flow of divine revelation in Scripture, then it is the next step in biblical religion. Thus we should all become Muslims. But, on the other hand, if Allah was a pre-Islamic pagan deity, then its core claim is refuted. Religious claims often fall before the results of hard sciences such as archeology. We can endlessly speculate about the past or go and dig it up and see what the evidence reveals. This is the only way to find out the truth concerning the origins of Allah. As we shall see, the hard evidence demonstrates that the god Allah was a pagan deity. In fact, he was the Moon-god who was married to the sun goddess and the stars were his daughters.
 
Archaeologists have uncovered temples to the Moon-god throughout the Middle East. From the mountains of Turkey to the banks of the Nile, the most wide-spread religion of the ancient world was the worship of the Moon-god. In the first literate civilization, the Sumerians have left us thousands of clay tablets in which they described their religious beliefs. As demonstrated by Sjoberg and Hall, the ancient Sumerians worshipped a Moon-god who was called many different names. The most popular names were Nanna, Suen and Asimbabbar. His symbol was the crescent moon. Given the amount of artifacts concerning the worship of this Moon-god, it is clear that this was the dominant religion in Sumeria. The cult of the Moon-god was the most popular religion throughout ancient Mesopotamia. The Assyrians, Babylonians, and the Akkadians took the word Suen and transformed it into the word Sin as their favorite name for the Moon-god. As Prof. Potts pointed out, "Sin is a name essentially Sumerian in origin which had been borrowed by the Semites." [source - The Archeology of the Middle East]"[additional references - "South Arabia's stellar religion has always been dominated by the Moon-god in various variations" (Berta Segall, The Iconography of Cosmic Kingship, the Art Bulletin, vol.xxxviii, 1956, p.77).; Isaac Rabinowitz, Aramaic Inscriptions of the Fifth Century, JNES, XV, 1956, pp.1-9; Edward Linski, The Goddess Atirat in Ancient Arabia, in Babylon and in Ugarit: Her Relation to the Moon-god and the Sun-goddess, Orientalia Lovaniensia Periodica, 3:101-9; H.J.Drivers, Iconography and Character of the Arab Goddess Allat, found in Études Preliminaries Aux Religions Orientales Dans L'Empire Roman, ed.

GENOCIDES BY FALSE RELIGION:
 
A brief history of genocides by the two biggest false religions.
 
The Catholic church on the orders of Pope Innocents III ordered the elimination of the Cathars which resulted in a genocide where over one million lost their lives.
 
<<"Saint Dominic encountered the Cathars in 1203 while travelling, and argued with them, concluding that only preachers who displayed real sanctity, humility and asceticism could win over convinced Cathar believers. His conviction led eventually to the establishment of the Dominican Order in 1216. The order was to live up to the terms of his famous rebuke, "Zeal must be met by zeal, humility by humility, false sanctity by real sanctity, preaching falsehood by preaching truth."
 
At first Pope Innocent III tried pacific conversion, and sent a number of legates into the affected regions...
 
In January 1208 the...the Pope ordered his legates to preach a Crusade against the Cathars. The Pope then called a formal crusade, appointing a series of leaders to head the assault...
 
The crusader army came under the command, both spiritual and military, of the papal legate Arnaud-Amaury, Abbot of Cîteaux. In the first significant engagement of the war, the town of Béziers was taken on 22 July 1209. Arnaud, the Cistercian abbot-commander is said to have been asked how to tell Cathar from Catholic. His reply, recorded by a fellow Cistercian, was "Caedite eos. Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius." - "Kill them all, the Lord will recognise His own"[1]. The doors of the church of St Mary Magdalene were broken down and the occupants slaughtered. 7,000 people died there including women and children. Elsewhere in the town many more thousands were mutilated and killed. Prisoners were blinded, dragged behind horses, and used for target practice. The town was razed. Arnaud, the abbot-commander, wrote to his master, the Pope: "Today your Holiness, twenty thousand citizens were put to the sword, regardless of rank, age, or sex." [2]. The population of Béziers was then probably no more than 15,000 but with local refugees seeking shelter within the city walls, the number claimed, 20,000, is possible...">>[56][57].
 
Genocide by Islam. According to Prof. K.S. Lal, the author of the Growth of Muslim population in India, the Hindu population decreased by 80 million between 1000 AD, the year Mahmud Ghazni invaded India and 1525 AD, a year before the battle of Panipat.[58][59].
 
One can safely add another 20 million Hindus to this list to account for the number that were killed during the Mughal rule or the rule of the Muslim rulers in the Deccan plateau. By all known accounts of world history, as pointed out by Koenard Elst in his book the Negationism in India, destruction of about 100 million hindus is perhaps the biggest holocaust in the whole world history."[60]
 
Clearly showing that the Muslims were responsible for the greatest genocide in all of human history, but let's look at more facts with respect this crime against humanity.
 
Historian Will Durant wrote his book The Story of Civilization:, <<"The Mohammadan conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in history. It is a discouraging tale, for its evident moral is that civilization is a precarious thing, whose delicate complex of order and liberty, culture and peace may at any time be overthrown by barbarians invading from without or multiplying within.">>[61].
