Recent news from those who follow evil and do believe in the Lord God Almighty!

When ISIS brutally beheaded 21 Coptic Christians, spilling their innocent blood into the sea, they fulfilled their infamous Nasheed, the cultish chant that sounds in the group’s propaganda videos.
Theodore Shoebat translates:
In the video, the hostages are seen feverishly whispering in their final hour, but it’s their chosen words that put us in awe.
Bishop Antonios Aziz Mina of Giza acknowledged that “in the moment of their barbaric execution,” the Christians were repeating the words “Lord, Jesus Christ,”
the Catholic Philly reports.
Some screamed “Yeshua,” the name of Jesus in their moment of suffering.
“The name of Jesus was the last word on their lips,” said Bishop Mina, and we can believe that was the first word on their lips as they entered eternity.
Allah commands brutality and warns against mercy, saying, “Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you.”
There is no doubt that ISIS is the most devout to Islam, following Allah’s and Muhammad’s commands in the purest and most literal form, as was carried out in the Muslim conquests for centuries.
The time for denying Islam’s guilt in the Islamic State’s atrocities is over.
We must identify that the fundamentals of Islam are indeed political and tyrannical, and they have brainwashed its followers into fulfilling a bloody Caliphate. The very scriptures ISIS quotes to justify this savagery cannot be misinterpreted as anything other than a call to physically war with unbelievers.
Islam must never coexist, because Muslims “must not take the Jews and Christians as friends.”
Instead, Allah promises his followers, “I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.”
The Islamists shout “Allahu akbar” to call the attention of their god to bless their obedience, while the followers of the true religion of peace cry out to their God to seal their salvation.
*** Muslims call on Allah to invoke death; Christians call on Jesus to invoke life.
Share the incredible testimony of these 21 martyrs, that their deaths might inspire, combating the glamorization of such evil.

Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible
Blessed are the merciful,....
Blessed are the merciful,....
Who show mercy to the bodies of men, to those
that are poor, indigent, and miserable, in their outward circumstances;
by both sympathizing with them, and distributing unto them; not only
making use of expressions of pity and concern; but communicating with
readiness and cheerfulness, with affection and tenderness, and with a
view to the glory of God: who also show mercy to the souls of men, by
instructing such as are ignorant, giving them good counsel and advice:
reproving them for sin, praying for them, forgiving injuries done by
them, and by comforting those that are cast down.
To show mercy is very
delightful to, and desirable by God; it is what he requires, and is one
of the weightier matters of the law; it is very ornamental to a child of
God, and what makes him more like to his heavenly Father.
The happiness
of such persons is this, that they shall
obtain mercy; from man, whenever they are attended with any
uncomfortable circumstances of life; , "whoever is merciful", men show
mercy to him (d): and from God, through Christ; which is free,
sovereign, abundant, and eternal.
Men are said to obtain this, when they
are regenerated, and called by grace; and when they have a discovery,
and an application, of the forgiveness of their sins: but here, it seems
to design those supplies of grace and mercy, which merciful persons may
expect to find and obtain, at the throne of grace, to help them in time
of need; and who shall not only obtain mercy of God in this life, but
in the world to come, in the great day of the Lord; for which the
Apostle prayed for Onesiphorus, 2 Timothy 1:18.

Theodore Shoebat translates:
If unbelief (in Islam) waved as the froth (of the sea) we will fill the plains red crimson blood … we walked dark nights, to slice and slaughter, with the blade of vengeance that poisons whom [our] anger is upon.Although Muhammad set the example of devout Islam when he said, “I have been made triumphant through terror,” no evil Islamic tactic was enough to divert the zealous Christians from the faith.
