Who is a Christian? by Carol Wolman

Dear Friends,

 

Jesus warned us repeatedly that using His name is not the same as following Him. 

Matthew 7 (KJV) 
   ²²Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?     ²³And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

The people running the US government, and the people who put them there, call themselves Christians.  But Jesus said that He will reject those who work iniquity.  Is it not iniquity to tamper with voter registration and voting machines, as the "Christian"  Republicans have done so blatantly?

 

Is it not iniquity to invade another country under false pretenses, throw it into chaos and slaughter its inhabitants, and then steal its oil?  Is it not iniquity to plot against internationally respected statesmen such as Kofi Annan and El-Baradi? 

 

Is it not iniquity to alter the US tax structure so as to transfer wealth from the middle class to the ruling class?  How about destroying Medicare and Social Security?  How about saddling our children with unbearable debt and with the hatred of the rest of the world? 

 

Will not Jesus reject people who plan and implement these policies, even if the self-styled Christians do hate abortionists, homosexuals, and towelheads?

 

The apostle John gives a further test.  The great commandment of Jesus was to love our neighbors as ourselves.  We are all neighbors on this small planet, and the only way to solve our common global problems is to follow this commandment.  The Bush administration is built on fear and hatred, not on love.  

 

It's time to call a spade a spade.  These people are satanic, not Christian.

 

Beloved:
The way we may be sure that we know Jesus
is to keep his commandments.
Whoever says, "I know him," but does not keep his commandments
is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

 

Whoever hates his brother is in darkness;
he walks in darkness
and does not know where he is going
because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

1 John 2: 3-4, 11

Subject: Manifesto of the Iraqi Resistance Movement (sounds like the American Revolution)

PeaceFriends: Here is a message from the 'Yankee Go Home" Iraqi Resistance Movement. Peaceloving people everywhere need to read it, including those who up to now have been ambivalent about the war (which, as predicted, has turned into the mass slaughter of mostly innocent Iraqis and the poisoning of their homeland soil, water and air with toxic bomb residue, massive psychological and spiritual trauma and radioactive uranium [which has a half-life of 4.5 billion years]). Somebody will eventually pay for this and the perpetrators of these crimes against humanity need to be brought to justice, just as the right-wing militarists of the Nazi era were brough to justice.Unfortunately it usually is the innocent victims and silent bystanders rather than the fomenters of monstrous evil who wind up suffering the most. Gary.

Remember, "If you want peace, work for justice."

Communiqué Number 6

----------------------------------------------------------------------

People of the world! These words come to you from those who up to the day of the invasion were struggling to survive under the sanctions imposed by the criminal regimes of the  U.S.  and  Britain .

We are simple people who chose principles over fear.

We have suffered crimes and sanctions, which we consider the true weapons of mass destruction.

Years and years of agony and despair, while the condemned UN traded with our oil revenues in the name of world stability and peace.

Over two million innocents died waiting for a light at the end of a tunnel
that only ended with the occupation of our country and the theft of our
resources.

After the crimes of the administrations of the U.S and  Britain  in  Iraq ,
we have chosen our future. The future of every resistance struggle ever in the history of man.

It is our duty, as well as our right, to fight back the occupying forces,
which their nations will be held morally and economically responsible; for what their elected governments have destroyed and stolen from our land.

We have not crossed the oceans and seas to occupy  Britain  or the  U.S.  nor are we responsible for 9/11. These are only a few of the lies that these
criminals present to cover their true plans for the control of the energy
resources of the world, in face of a growing  China  and a strong unified  Europe . It is Ironic that the Iraqi's are to bear the full face of this large and
growing conflict on behalf of the rest of this sleeping world.

We thank all those, including those of  Britain  and the  U.S. , who took to
the streets in protest against this war and against Globalism. We also thank  France,  Germany  and other states for their position, which least to say are considered wise and balanced, til now.

Today, we call on you again.

We do not require arms or fighters, for we have plenty.

We ask you to form a world wide front against war and sanctions. A front that is governed by the wise and knowing. A front that will bring reform and order. New institutions that would replace the now corrupt.

Stop using the U.S. dollar, use the Euro or a basket of currencies. Reduce or halt your consumption of British and  U.S.  products. Put an end to Zionism before it ends the world. Educate those in doubt of the true nature of this conflict and do not believe their media for their casualties are far higher than they admit.

We only wish we had more cameras to show the world their true defeat.

The enemy is on the run. They are in fear of a resistance movement they can not see nor predict.

We, now choose when, where, and how to strike. And as our ancestors drew the first sparks of civilization, we will redefine the word “conquest.“

Today we write a new chapter in the arts of urban warfare.

Know that by helping the Iraqi people you are helping yourselves, for
tomorrow may bring the same destruction to you.

In helping the Iraqi people does not mean dealing for the Americans for a few contracts here and there. You must continue to isolate their strategy.

This conflict is no longer considered a localized war. Nor can the world
remain hostage to the never-ending and regenerated fear that the American people suffer from in general.

We will pin them here in  Iraq  to drain their resources, manpower, and their will to fight. We will make them spend as much as they steal, if not more.

We will disrupt, then halt the flow of our stolen oil, thus, rendering their
plans useless.

And the earlier a movement is born, the earlier their fall will be.

And to the American soldiers we say, you can also choose to fight tyranny
with us.  Lay down your weapons, and seek refuge in our mosques, churches and homes.  We will protect you.  And we will get you out of  Iraq , as we have done with a few others before you.

Go back to your homes, families, and loved ones. This is not your war. Nor
are you fighting for a true cause in  Iraq .

And to George W. Bush, we say, “You have asked us to ‘Bring it on’, and so have we.  Like never expected.  Have you another challenge?”
