CHURCH SAFETY

 

Welcome to another episode of Christian Warrior Training! In today's episode, we delve into a crucial topic: terrorism and church security. As Christians, our faith calls us to be vigilant and prepared in the face of potential threats. Join your host, Keith Graves, as he discusses the importance of recognizing and addressing the clues of a future terrorist event at our churches. From surveillance activities to elicitation techniques, we explore the intricate details that can help our church security teams stay one step ahead. Tune in as we provide valuable insights and practical tips to ensure the safety of our congregations. Stay tuned, warriors, as we equip ourselves to protect the sanctity of our churches against those who wish to do harm. Let's get started on this eye-opening journey together!

FALSE BELIEVERS OF YESHUA - BEWARE!

 

The fractured Christian Church has a lot to do with the massive growth of this cancerous deception in society.  The growth of this confusion and aberrant religious mish-mosh is disturbing.

In the last days, the "apostacy" must come first as it states in 2 Thessalonians, and the appearance of that man of lawlessness folks. 

We're ripe for all of it.

God willing, I'm going to try and post my interaction and an example of the growing hatred of the Church of Christ, and the influences from where it continues brewing. 

These are enemies of The Cross of Christ and they come IN MANY persuasions in the spirit of antichrist.   Imagine if you will those who claim to love Christ, Yeshua but deny His true identity and His true Church, and not, that supposed, "religion of peace" but other religionists who claim to follow God's Torah and law!!!    

The two signs of Christ's return (and now is):  

1- The apostasy in the last days

2- The appearance of antichrist

Maranatha!  

Here's a debate between A false Hebrew Israelite religionist and Dr. Michael Brown who has a PhD in Near Eastern Hebrew language and is a Messianic Christian Jew.

This is PART 2 to this review of these false believers of our Lord. They do not KNOW Him, and we pray that by the power of the Holy Spirit, they'll have their hearts of slander changed to KNOW the true Christ!  

Uganda: Christian brother murdered by Muslims

 

(curtesy Christian headlines.com)

NAIROBI, Kenya, January 11, 2023 (Morning Star News) – A 37-year-old father of four was killed on Jan. 2 after participating in a Christian-Muslim debate in eastern Uganda at which 13 Muslims put their faith in Christ, sources said.

This brother had been converted from the Muslim faith, and dedicated his life to bringing the truth of Christ to other Muslims.  Over 100 of them have converted to Christianity because of this brother's ministry, so this was the result.  

Consider the Word of God:

   10“See that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that their angels in heaven continually see the face of My Father who is in heaven. 11[“For the Son of Man has come to save that which was lost.]

      12“What do you think? If any man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go and search for the one that is straying? 13“If it turns out that he finds it, truly I say to you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine which have not gone astray. 14“So it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones perish. - Matthew 18: 10-14 

This doesn't just apply to his referring to children as the ones brought to Christ for Him to bless but that the character of those in Heaven would be "such as these" (Matthew 19:14) (accepting, innocent, loving, joyful, peaceful, playful, etc.).  This is then compared to any one of these lost as sheep who Heaven rejoices over the others who are not lost. (another parallel: Luke 15:32 the prodigal son)

This brother, Ahamada Mafabi loved SO MUCH, he risked His life for the gospel of Christ.  He had a wife and four children.  He set out to find God's sheep, and found over 100 of them in a years time.  

Why?  Because there's nothing else but Christ that can bring true joy and peace.  When we feed off of the "Bread of life" and we drink from the "fountain of living water", there's no going back!  

The Apostle Peter said, "Where else can we go, you Lord have the words of eternal life!"  

How often don't we dispute and debate in religious circles in our country, here at home, without risk to our lives ... 

But in so many nations around the world, The Lord is bringing in souls CONSTANTLY to Him, in truth - and it's through people like Ahamada Matabi who The Holy Spirit indwells, and in love of the truth, obediently heralds The Gospel of the Kingdom.

"Repent, The Kingdom of Heaven

Is at hand" 

- Mark 1:15

Let's not be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  For it is the power of God unto salvation for every one who believes (Romans 1:16)

Here's the rest of the article on our brother saint now in Heaven and support his family if you can.

Attacks on American Churches Have Increased 174 Percent (article)

 

Attacks on American Churches Have Increased 174 Percent Since 2018: New Report

Michael Foust | ChristianHeadlines.com Contributor | Monday, December 19, 2022

The number of documented attacks on churches has steadily increased in recent months and years, with a dramatic uptick in 2022 in abortion-related vandalism related to the U.S. Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade, according to a landmark new report.

The report by the D.C.-based Family Research Council uncovered a total of 420 documented acts of hostility against 397 individual churches between January 2018 and September 2022. There were 50 in 2018, but that quickly increased to 83 in 2019, 96 in 2021 and 137 in 2022 (through September). There were 54 documented incidents of hostility against churches in 2020 – a decrease from the previous year that the report's authors attributed to the pandemic when much of the country was on lockdown or not traveling much.

The number of attacks on churches from 2018 to 2022 represents a 174 percent increase.

The report examined vandalism, arson, arson attempts and shootings. Most of the "acts of hostility" – 342 of the 420 – involved vandalism, the report said.

The report's findings mirror similar data by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which found an increase in anti-Christian hate crimes: from 172 in 2018 to 217 in 2019, to 240 in 2021.

"Criminal acts of vandalism and destruction of church property are likely symptomatic of a collapse in societal reverence and respect for houses of worship and religion – in this case, churches and Christianity," the report said. "Americans appear increasingly comfortable lashing out against church buildings, pointing to a larger societal problem of marginalizing core Christian beliefs, including those that touch on hot-button political issues related to human dignity and sexuality."

Many of the acts of hostility in 2022 involved abortion-related violence. The report found 57 instances that "were directly tied to pro-abortion protests or contained pro-abortion messages" during that year. For example, four Catholic churches in Wisconsin this summer were vandalized with pro-choice graffiti. By contrast, there were only five incidents of abortion-related attacks on churches between 2019 and 2021.

Arielle Del Turco, the report's author and the assistant director of the Center for Religious Liberty at the Family Research Council, said the report's findings are troubling.

"The problem of acts of hostility against churches in the United States is widespread and growing," Del Turco said. "This is not a trend that should be shrugged off. When churches are targeted for acts of destruction, arson, or threatening messages, it has the potential to be intimidating – and sometimes, that's the intention. Within the past few years especially, outpourings of political anger have sometimes correlated with vandalism and other acts against churches. When faced with such blatant violence and disrespect against churches (and religion more broadly), our response must be to condemn these acts and reaffirm the right of all people to worship and live out their faith freely – including the freedom to live without fear that they will be the next target of such an attack."

Those who have the "Beast System" running on the inside of them will start getting sort of weird about others celebrating the incarnation of The Christ unto the world, and will display impulsive fits of anger, and hate.

Nigeria: 'Christians Are Being Killed every week!

'Christians Are Being Killed': Critics Outraged at Biden Admin as Murder and Terror Rage in Nigeria

Dec 7, 2022

Religious freedom advocates are "outraged" and confounded after the Biden administration again declined to add Nigeria to the U.S. Department of State's Countries of Particular Concern list, a designation targeting nations restricting or complicit in religious freedom violations. 

Joel Veldkamp, head of international communications at persecution watchdog Christian Solidarity International (CSI), has been among those urging the State Department to reclassify Nigeria as a nation violating residents' religious liberty – but to no avail. Veldkamp told CBN's Faithwire the Biden administration's decision to ignore international outcry over the matter is stunning, particularly in light of the deadly assaults unfolding against Christians in Nigeria daily. 

"It's not an exaggeration," he said. "Every week, Christians are being killed in this country." Veldkamp shared how the release of the current Countries of Particular Concern was dropped on Friday afternoon, noting this is how "Washington killed news" by burying it at a time when fewer people are paying attention. Tragically, Veldkamp said he had spent the days before the release speaking with priests in Nigeria who witnessed and experienced the unthinkable. 

"Earlier in the week. I had talked to two different priests from two different states in Nigeria. Really one is in the middle of the country, and one is in the deep south of the country," he said. "One priest... had just visited a village where 20 Christians were killed the week before. He met a father who saw four of his children killed in front of his eyes." This same priest met another mother and father who lost one of their children and saw homes being burned. One of those interview subjects said, "I stood on the ashes of human beings." Watch Veldkamp explain the ordeal. (Curtesy CBN YouTube).

Saints please pray for our brethren in Nigeria!

Our nation disrespects marriage (in rebellion to God)

 

Our nation disrespects marriage (in rebellion to God)

Have we reached that point of no return??

Our nation keeps shaking its fist to God.  Our nation has been given over to the globalist powers to usher in the construction of that new world order.  Who can stop the subversion? There are so many plants and moles, (foreign and domestic).  And sadly, not enough Holy Spirit filled voices to hold back or stall any further the Beast system.  

God has sent that delusion and the axe is being laid to the root of the tree...   I'm referring to JUDGMENT.  WE ARE BEING JUDGED.  However, God knows who are His.

Stand firm, God is still on the throne and nothing happens unless He allows it.  The Beast system must create a new morality before this satanic system eats itself and implodes into it's own black hole of depravity.

Listen to my latest podcast on this disrespect for marriage, the institution which God Himself created FOR US.  Marriage is not just for us to obey His command: "Be fruitful and multiply" (in His image) but also, by marriage we find value and understanding of our spiritual and intimate connection to God, our Creator -  as in, We are ONE BODY in Him.

However, the culture has continued trying to redefine what marriage is in overt rejection of God's intention for us in Him.

The culture can never succeed in this. They'll never be able to redefine marriage for this reason.  Because it's a supernatural and extremely physical thing that transcends the physical.

SIN entering unawares

 

Wow. The statements of faith SHOULD block any student, any employee from entering who will affirm SIN and affirm a stand AGAINST The Word of God.  That's how it should work because SIN will creep into the garden and he is (as it's put in the book of Genesis) craftier than most beasts.  

Take a stand Christian, it's coming for you in one way or another. These are the times we're in.  And then hue Agag to pieces before he destroys you.

Genocide in Nigeria!

 

Our brethren in Nigeria are being slaughtered and the world sits by, does nothing.  The hatred of Christ has never stopped.

“The terrorists waylaid innocent and defenseless Christians,” Kwewum said. “These killings and destruction have become daily occurrences – and in several of the communities the terrorist attack, crops in the field are destroyed; houses including Christian worship centers are sometimes set ablaze.”

 The masacre continues unabated and the world turns their eyes away from whole families being murdered.   Pray for these Christians in Nigeria.

Nigeria led the world in Christians killed for their faith last year (Oct. 1, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2021) at 4,650, up from 3,530 the previous year, according to Open Doors’ 2022 World Watch List report. The number of kidnapped Christians was also highest in Nigeria, at more than 2,500, up from 990 the previous year, according to the WWL report.

The bullying of Christians

 Here's an example (link to full article below) of that type of bullying which will continue to increase in this nation unless we push back.  Christians, this is what is meant by 

"Indeed, all who want to live in a godly way in Christ Jesus will be persecuted."- 2 Timothy 3:12

America ignores "the least of these"

 Our fallen nation hates Christ and their silence in the face of the persecution of Christians around the world makes that more than evident.

America hates the image of God. (Child sacrifice)

America hates the holiness of God. (Objective moral standard)

America hates The Word of God. (The Bible)

America must repent.  These are the very signs of judgment upon our nation - our cold and callous hearts.

The USA has become a nation of pagan idolatry.

Our idols are many.  Repent and smash those idols wherever they are found in our hearts!

------------------------------

Matthew 25:

“Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink;  I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.’  Then they themselves also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not take care of You?’ Then He will answer them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’  These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
