Christians on the Run in Sudan
(From VOM Magazine Special Issue 2006, p.10-11)

Paul Idris, a Suadanese Christian, was running from the Muslim militias. He was captured and held in a concentration camp where he was tortured before being taken to prison in Khartoum. In agony in the detention camp, Paul refused to deny Jesus Christ when his Muslim torturers demanded, "GIVE UP THIS JESUS." When he continued to claim Jesus, his tormenters took polyethylene sheets of plastic and burned them, dripping hot plastic on his naked back. The torture was repeated many times during the month he was in prison. Now back home in the South, he remains weak, but we help him. Paul's father was killed during the Muslim invasions; he cannot find his brothers and sisters who are on the run, but his mother is alive, living in another area.

Five million Sudanese Christians have lost their homes and possessions and remain "refugees" in their own country. This genocide was driven by radical ISLAMIST forces in Khartoum. VOM has participated in flying, driving, and walking with aid since 1996 to our brothers and sisters who suffer as "infidels" in this Islamist-directed Jihad.

Sudan is Africa's largest country. The MUSLIM government of Khartoum in the North has waged a jihad against the mostly CHRISTIAN South. In January 2005, a peace agreement was signed....however, deliberate attempts to eliminate a viable Christian presence have been extreme and have included the destruction of hospitals, schools, churches, and Christian villages. Pastors and church leaders have been murdered. Men, women and children have been threatened with death or torture if they refuse to convert to Islam.

Those in the United States need to be aware that it is rarely mentioned in our wonderfully controlled media, that the Sudanese government waged a jihad on CHRISTIANS and that this government is ISLAMIC! Our brothers and sisters have been systematically murdered!

WE PRAY: Lord, please deliver your brothers and sisters in the Sudan from the hand of Satan. Through the Evil One's deception, Muslims are murdering your sons and daughters. Please Lord, end this evil however You see fit, Lord. Allow all of your sheep to withstand persecution and martyrdom brought about in Your name Lord. Please forgive the Muslims for they know no better when under the influence of the Devil.

JOHN 15:18-19
“If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world therefore the world hates you.”

The CASHLESS SOCIETY


In 1991, people thought we were off the wall for talking about the debit card/cash card taking the place of cash and the use of "computer" cash. Well, it happened. We will stand behind the following article which was sent to us by a fellow Christian. The 666 in Revelation may be purposely ignored by the Catholic Church and other denominations of Christianity but there is no longer any excuse when there is blatant truth to it appearing in our world. We could understand why so many were "cautious" and failed to ask or answer any questions about the number 666. For centuries the fact was that many readers of the Word could not comprehend or understand how the number 666 would wind up on all items bought and sold (Revelation Chapter 13). How easy is it for us in 2006 to comprehend the significance of 666 with knowledge of the binary code and the fact that UPC codes are organized/stored by computers using 6 as the first bar, 6 as the direct middle bar, and 6 as the last bar? There are many other examples...


The Coming Cashless Society
by Jan Markell

Author and financial planner Ethan Pope is hardly a sensationalist. Pope believes the coming one world global currency, all electronic, will be here in a few short years. Not a prophet, obviously he will not put a date on this. But we see shades of it even now with debit cards, credit cards, electronic banking, and more. The effort is global, not just the Western world. Pope frankly says, "change or be left behind."

Since at some point all of this will require technology, all will need to be familiar with a computer or have a family member or friend deal with the issue. It is likely that someday the Antichrist will also communicate en mass via the computer. The world is pressing forward with this; it is just a matter of time.
Already some consumers are ready to sacrifice some privacy due to the threat of more terrorist attacks. But how much will we be willing to compromise? Maybe a lot when the "benefits" are realized, but remember, for each benefit, there is a down side.

• There would be a decrease in crime and as a result a savings to Americans alone of about $1 billion a year.
• Expect a decrease in all violent crime related to money.
• The elimination of counterfeit money.
• The elimination of money laundering and a decrease in drug trafficking.
• No check writing, stolen checks, or lost checks.
• Global transactions will be easy. You can buy anything simply all over the world.

Since everything will have an RFID chip nothing will ever be lost. However, there is huge potential for abuse here.
And what about the negatives?
Hackers and other criminals can get your information through identity theft. They may not be able to steal your wallet with $25 in it, but they can steal ALL of your money electronically.
Someone will view every transaction you make. This will require a national identification system and every transaction you make will be recorded.

Some segments of society are already 80% cashless. The IRS wants forms filed electronically though it is not yet mandatory.
E-cash is on the way. Will this just play out in the Tribulation with the one world system when cash is worthless anyway and a "mark" necessary? The author speculates that this is a run-up to that and I would second that. However, there is nothing intrinsically bad about a cashless society UNLESS evil people control it and monitor it. But the further we move into the last days, the more evil will intensify.

If you have eyes to see, things are coming to pass as predicted. For the believer, we look up. For the unbeliever, is it any wonder the Bible says that men's hearts would fail them for fear? Only "God is the stability of our times," (Is. 33:6).

Awaiting His return,

From Voice of the Martyrs Magazine, May 2006, p. 6:

RISE OF HINDU RADICALS

Established in 1925, the purpose of the Rashtria Swayamsevak Sang (RSS), also known as the Indian Volunteers Corp, was to strengthen India's cultural heritage. The RSS was originally considered a social organization that assisted Hindu refugees who fled Pakistan for India at the time of partitioning in 1947. The RSS advanced the ideology of Hindutva-one common nation, one common race closely associated with Hinduism. The RSS also formed a political wing, the Jan Sangh Party, which became the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in 1980. The BJP controlled the federal government from 1998 until April 2004, when it lost the national election to the Congress Party. Dalit voters were believed responsible for the Congress Party victory.

Christian leaders say RSS members now feel deprived of their right to rule INdia. Christians and other non-Hindus are unlikely to support the BJP becasue of its close connection to the RSS and the Hindutva ideology. Thus, the RSS and BJP believe the Dalits should remain as Hindus- not only for ideological reasons, but also for political ones. In their minds, Hindus are more likely to support the political parites that advance Hinduvta.

Since losing the national election in 2004, the RSS hass stepped up efforts to establish a Defense Army- training up young Hindu recruits in order to defend Hinduism and prevent Indians (especially the Dalits) from converting to Christianity. An estimated 3 million Indians are believed to have participated in Defense Army training exercises. RSS officials now oversee a network of some 70-plus Hindu groups called the Sangh Parivar. They preach that only "true" Indians accept and respect Hindutva. The Sangh Parivar's Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) groups are responsible for many of the recent attacks against Christians. They are also invovled in conducting routine "reconversion" camps and ceremonies.

DIGNITY FOR THE DALITS!!!!
