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 leader of Boko Haram, who the Nigerian government claimed to have killed, has appeared in a new video that was posted to the social media site YouTube.
“Here I am, alive. I will only die the day Allah takes my breath,” Abubakar Shekau says in the video. “Nothing will kill me until my days are over. … I’m still alive. Some people asked you if Shekau has two souls. No, I have one soul, by Allah.”
The video showed Shekau in the back of a pickup truck where he says they are running their Islamic caliphate. The video also showed them killing a man accused of adultery and lashing a woman for having sex outside of marriage.
Boko Haram also confirmed their alignment with ISIS, essentially spreading the terrorist group from the Middle East into Africa.
The executive director of the Christian Association of Nigerian-Americans says that President Obama needs to stop focusing only on ISIS and realize that Islamic terrorism is spreading throughout the world.
“Obama will need to include other terrorist groups like Boko Haram, Hamas and Hezbollah,” Pastor Laolu Akande said.
