God is calling upon us as a nation and as individuals to resist and expel Islam from our shores. If this can be done without material or personal injury or deaths, so much the better, and the sooner the better.
In all of our admonitions for America to repent, it is noted here that it is time for the followers of Islam to repent and forsake its false 'god' and its strange teachings or suffer world-wide extreme prejudice.
Well, I'm not betting the farm that we or Islam will do m uch repenting. I don't want God to judge America harshly, that's why I pray that He will have mercy on us. He judged Israel harshly for turning to strange gods and doing what He told them expressly NOT to do. We aren't any different. He loves us enough to turn us toward Him no matter what it takes. I believe God wants to break the back of Islam and that's why we're in Iraq right now. We thought WE had a purpose for being there but so did God. Prayer is one of the most effective if not THE most effective tool we have for fighting this battle. It's more spiritual than it is physical but we may have to do both.
Totally agreed.
The way I see it is this... if you want a spiritual/physical analogy, think of America as a group of lazy warriors -- warriors that have been getting fat and slow witted by their indulging themselves in their affluence, getting distracted by petty grievances and sometimes doing some very selfish things. The enemy sees this and tries to make its move by stealing and plundering from these guys, and let's say 9-11 would be like they killed maybe one of these guys' family members. Now, the guys suddenly realize they're a little out of shape to go after these enemies, both mentally, emotionally, and physically... but does that make the killing of the family member their fault? No.
If they do not start exercising, eating right, applying self-discipline, moral discipline, (*eg. repenting = turning away from the old habits) etc, they will not be sharp enough to be able to go after the enemy effectively. THAT inability is what would be their fault. It is minor compared to that of the enemy, but it is deadly and because it is the only thing we control it is totally our responsibility. (e.g. we cannot convince the enemy not to attack other than by gearing up for a counterrattack and/or carrying out an effective counterattack, we can only convince ourselves to 'throw off every encumberance' and prepare, morally, mentally, physically.)
