Greetings to all,

Consider the following message, not popular, and hardly understood.

Does the Bible talk about the rise of Islam? Absolutely!

In Revelation 9 a new religion is brought to view—it is a star “fallen from heaven,” but it is mixed with “smoke’ out of the “bottomless pit.” This new power darkens the gospel which the world needs.

Did you know that Islam began by condemning the evil of idolatry as wrongly practiced in the apostate Christian church? Although Islam is a false religion it was right in seeing the evil practices of idol worship in the dark ages. Humanity has more sophisticated types of idols today, etc., excessive TV, video games, sports, and a thousand more all pointing to self.

The “bottomless pit” in the Greek means any desolate wilderness, and correctly represents the desert of Arabia where the Arab Muslim invaders came, in number like unto locusts. The Greek word for “bottomless pit” is abyssos, from which we get our modern English word abyss.

Modern Muslim writers use that very word in describing the Arabian society from which the power of Islam arose: “ARABIA—The Abyss of Darkness” … “In that benighted era, there was a territory where darkness lay heavier and thicker. … Arabia .. stood isolated, cut off by vast oceans of sand.” By Abul A’La Maududi.

It was out of this “abyss” arose the scourge of Christendom. Anyone reading the Ottoman history and the evidence in Revelation 9 pertaining to such, will recognize that God permits “woes” to come upon the world to bring sinners to their senses, and to lead them to respond to the gospel. Woe after woe comes; yet still people love their sin. Will the “third woe” lead them to repentance? When that time comes, it will be too late!

We only have to read the stories of ancient Israel to recognize that when they fell into apostasy time and time again that God allowed the enemy to invade. "History is no sad paean of woe; it is rather a reiterated call to repentance." --G. Ernest Wright, The Challenge of Israel's Faith

Regarding our participation in a “secular” government’s war, one author put it this way:

"Perfect Peace.—From the statement in Rom. 13:10, that “love worketh no ill to his neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law,” it will be seen that Christian love does not possibly admit of wars and fightings. Its possession makes it impossible for one to say, as is frequently said in these days, “I have been an advocate of peace and arbitration for twenty-five years, but”—and then go on to say that under such provocation as now exists war is welcomed. “Love worketh no ill to his neighbor;” and no philosophy can ever make it appear that it does a man any good to kill him.

When the soldiers asked John the Baptist what they should do, as followers of the Lamb of God, to whom he pointed, he replied, “Do violence to no man.” Luke 3:14. Those who asked were “soldiers on service,” as we see from the margin of the Revised Version. And the margin also gives as the alternative rendering of John’s answer, “Put no man in fear.” It would be a very mild war in which this command was followed. Love never does any harm to anybody; but love is active, since it is the life of God; therefore love is always doing good. Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, “went about doing good.” End Quote

“I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are NOT of the world, even as I am not of the world” (John 17:14).

Blessings in Christ,
John
