Title: Enduring the Torture stake.
Post by: sheila on January 06, 2016, 06:45:02 AM
  I wanted to share this with you guys. A few months ago I made a post about 'I hate..Isis' and God help me..........and I knew I wasn't

where I should be spiritually on it. Resentment and fear of what is associated with muslim terrorists made them abhorrent to me.

   I watched some videos on youtube that displayed the horrible atrocities etc..and I was burning with anger.

    I prayed to Him ,confessed my feelings of hate in my heart,and asked Him how He endured His torture stake.How did you bear it?
.

   And shortly after I come across some youtube videos of muslim terrorists/Isis..who had a visit from Jesus in a dream or vision

or near/death/death expierence..repented and accepted Christ/become christians..and their testimonies...and their tears of

sorrow and repentance and that He would love them so..and forgive them[I cried] and I heard in the spirit..'this is why and how

I endured the torture stake...for this."  He was able to endure it all for the joy of the reconciliation.

 :cloud9: I ran across one of those videos awhile back of one Muslim terrorist having a visit from Jesus. I agree it's hard not to harbor anything towards their barbaric habits. Blessings...

How beautiful Sheila! :HeartThrob: :HeartThrob:
Thanks for posting it! It's hard to love them as they hurt others so.. But Jesus died for them and all other persons used in atrocities.. There's a couple of very popular converts I've listened to, but i can't think of their names.. One teaches on Bible prophecy - tho I'm not sure he was a practicing terrorist.. just with leanings if I remember right.. I love listening to them!

It must be difficult to deal with the regret if one has committed an atrocity or atrocities to another or others.. (but the whole realm of darkness's potential must be let to run its course.. if the only results of "missing the mark"/lower[fallen]nature and character allowed to play out were only of small results.. how would all in heaven and earth be convinced, ultimately, of the utter horror of any speck of imperfection/sin/wandering?)

 :cloud9: The only silver lining in the cloud of their bonds is that once free, with their intense drive to serve God, once they really know who He is and what He is like, there will be no stopping them.

 :thumbsup:  he who is forgiven much..loves much. It is so heart-warming to listen to their testimonies as they share...

their 'change' and transformation into the kingdom of the love of His son. I see His glory on them and how it beautifies them.

   there is a big evangelic movement taking place in the young people in Iran.......and the government has been cracking down on

  them. Keep them all in your prayers... :HeartThrob:
