Revelation 6:3-4 NCV When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a red one. Its rider was given power to take away peace (prosperity, rest) from the earth and to make people kill each other (butcher, slaughter, to maim violently, in streets), and he was given a big sword (assassins sword, terrorist, loud, mighty, sore afraid).
The FBI is trying to downplay fears after a photo of San Francisco’s International Airport was found inside an al-Qaeda produced magazine.
The spring issue of “Inspire” has a picture of the AirTrain at San Francisco Airport. The AirTrain connects all the airport terminals with the Bay Area Regional Transit.
A caption with the photo written in Arabic says to “stand up, pack your tools of destruction. Assemble your bomb, ready for detonation.”
“The San Francisco area is depicted in this al-Qaida publication,” Congressman Eric Swalwell said in a Homeland Security committee hearing. “What we believe from what senior law enforcement officials have told us is that this is AirTrain from San Francisco’s airport, and that the translation from the Arabic message encourages al-Qaida members to detonate explosive devices.”
Former FBI agent Rick Smith told CBS San Francisco that there should be some concern but he wouldn’t change travel plans. However, he said the magazine is appealing to wanna-be terrorists who could be much more dangerous than actual al-Qaeda operatives.
What a good word!
There is not enough darkness in all of the world to put out the light of a single candle. Jesus taught us not to be overcome by evil but overcome evil with good. It is time for Christians everywhere to arise in faith, intercession, prayer and praise. It is time to be alert. Nothing in this world or even under this world can defeat the church. Jesus said ” I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it”. So Christians everywhere let your light shine. Abide in Jesus, share the Good News. O Lord send a mighty wind and fire to your church and revive us again for this final hour of history we have been called to live in. Make us like Davids who refused to fear the giants(I don’t think any of us begin to realize just how ugly and scarey Goliath really was- all the brave Israeli soldiers ran at the sight of him),. Raise up men, women and even children, courageous to live for God. With God in us we can do this. We can and will triumph over the works of darkness. Jesus is coming for a triumphant church without spot or wrinkle. I so desire to be part of that church and the blessed thing is that it is entirely possible for all as we surrender our lives to the upward calling of God in Christ. Jesus victory on the cross is sure. The veil is rent in two. We can come boldly to the Throne of Grace. What a perilous day but awesome day to be alive! May the people who know their God be strong and do exploits. And do not fear!
