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).
Muslim rebels attacked the city of Zamboanga early Monday resulting in the death of one Philippine soldier and the wounding of six others.
The terrorists are part of the Moro National Liberation Front despite the fact the MNLF signed a peace agreement with the government in 1996. Local officials say that some fighters connected to the group refuse to accept the agreement.
The rebels attacked from the ocean and moved from the coast to the Rio Hondo part of the city. The city’s major told AFP News that the group is holding around 20 people hostage.
The group of terrorists allegedly wants to raise a “banner of independence” over city hall.
