Do Terrorists Attain God’s Pleasure?
What makes someone’s much loved son or daughter becomes a suicide bomber for what they believe and exclude the beliefs of all others? What makes someone blow themselves and strangers all around them up? Perhaps they’re lured by promises too hard to resist.
But do they believe truth?
Do sacrificial acts of terror actually guarantee free access into heaven for the loved ones of a terrorist? Are virgins eagerly awaiting them as reward for their actions and beliefs?
Urging Muslims to carry out atrocities against the West, including attacks on aircraft, al-Qaeda’s latest propaganda publication also identifies goals of the jihadist, including “inflicting damage” on unbelievers, “attaining Allah’s pleasure” – and the reward of virgins in paradise. (CNSNews.com)
Do terrorists escape judgement or after death, do they like all of us stand before the judgement seat of God to give an account of our actions?
And the slaughter of innocent lives for just being in the wrong place at the wrong time in Paris recently – the City of Love – and with many injured fighting for life, what does God want?
But “God is a God of love, right? So if someone mistakenly believes they are doing something for God but are mistaken, won’t He forgive them because they thought they were serving Him?”
What does the Bible say? Are terrorists rewarded in heaven?
Does The God of The Universe desire that we annihilate all who don’t believe what we believe?
Is Allah above Jesus, who died on a cross to save us from our sins, was buried and rose again and was seen by hundreds of people before He ascended into heaven?
The first pillar of Islam is"Shahaden" “There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is his prophet.” That means that all Muslims must worship Allah as the one and only god …
But the Bible says there is no other but Jesus that can save us. And of all the gods people worship, Jesus is the only one with an empty tomb.
Although these words were written long ago the Bible is current for our time, with warnings straight from the mouth of God to everyone who would reek havoc on others..
These things must happen… and then the end will come.
Signs of the End of the Age
As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”
Jesus answered: "Watch out that no one deceives you.
For many will come in my name, claiming, ’I am the Christ, ’ and will deceive many.
You will hear of wars and rumours of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.
Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains.
“Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me.
At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.
Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.
And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
“So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’ spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand—then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
Let no one on the roof of his house go down to take anything out of the house.
Let no one in the field go back to get his cloak.
How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers!
Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath.
For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.
If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.
At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it.
For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect—if that were possible.
See, I have told you ahead of time."So if anyone tells you, ‘There he is, out in the desert,’ do not go out; or, ‘Here he is, in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it.
For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
“Immediately after the distress of those days " ‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’
“At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory.
And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.
“Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near.
Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door.
I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
Matthew 24
