Father Josiah Trenham mentioned intimidation to the parishioners of St. Andrew Orthodox Church, and he was quite right: Islamic supremacists and jihadis routinely traffic in intimidation. Thats based on a Quranic command: And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know, whom Allah knows (Quran 8:60).
When they practice this intimidation, they generally find Westerners especially Christian leaders unwilling and unable to do anything in response but submit to it: the Christians are anxious to show themselves to be charitable and loving to the Muslims, without realizing that as far as the Muslims are concerned, this equates to surrender. Hence the many Christian leaders who counseled that in the face of the jihad murder of cartoonists of Muhammad, the charitable thing for Christians to do would be to accept the Sharia blasphemy restrictions on speech, at least regarding criticism of Muhammad.
This is not to say that Christians shouldnt be charitable and loving, but sometimes the most charitable thing to do is to refuse to allow the intimidator a victory for his intimidation. Giving in to intimidation only encourages more of it. Christians in the U.S. need to have a public discussion of this point, since one thing is certain: there are going to be many, many more incidents like this one at St. Andrew Orthodox Church.

Where is the video? Unless it was a church full of very senior citizens?
What would happen if you went to a Hillary rally and started screaming that? Would you get arrested for making threats?
Texas: Muslims screaming Allahu akbar! through a bullhorn shot to shit by church-goers fearing suicide bomb.

Too bad the church gardener couldn’t have sprayed that car with water, aiming for the megaphone. Thx Obama!
Allahu Akhbar: [my] god is greater [than yours]!
Get some speakers outside, or get the pipe organ as loud as possible.
A mighty fortress is our God,
a bulwark never failing;
our helper he amid the flood
of mortal ills prevailing.
For still our ancient foe
doth seek to work us woe;
his craft and power are great,
and armed with cruel hate,
on earth is not his equal.
As loud as possible.
You would be invited to stand beside Hillary.

Other incidents noted,
At website.
And they did not get shot? Oh, it was in California.
Is there anything backing the headline because they could be referring to just about any state or country.
I dont see any further info in the article.
If it’s TRUE, christians need to head there en masse and protect it.
If it’s not, then it shouldn’t be worded so.
Obama’s Legacy
Save Thy people, O Lord,
and bless Thine inheritance.
Grant victory to Thy Church over her enemies,
and protect Thy people by Thy Holy Cross!
Reversed, this would be a hate crime.
Given the history of Islam, shouting Allah akbar to a gathering of Christians should legally be considered a threat. For 1400 years Muslims have followed up this proclamation with violence.
That's exactly what would happen at many of the churches I've been to. Half of the congregation or more carry conceal carry at our church. Anybody screaming Allah Ahkbar would immediately be filled full of bullet holes.
