Evangelical pastor on trial for branding Islam 'satanic' [Isaiah 32]
World Net Daily ^ | 12/14/2015 | Bob Unruh

Posted on 12/14/2015 2:14:22 PM PST by Jan_Sobieski

A pastor is facing a court trial this week on a government charge that his message, delivered through a public electronic communications because it was online, was grossly offensive to the point of being criminal. The decision that results from the case, which is based on the pastor’s description of Islam as a “doctrine spawned in hell,” could determine whether Christian pastors will be allowed to preach biblical doctrine in the United Kingdom going forward. U.TV in the United Kingdom reports that Pastor James McConnell, 78, of Shore Road, Newtownabbey, is facing a three-day trial for charges stemming from alleged violations of the 2003 Communications Act.

There are two charges pending, the improper use of a public electronic communications network and causing a “grossly offensive message” to be distributed, the report said. His sermon, delivered from the pulpit of Whitewell Metropolitan Chapel of north Belfast, will be the subject of the Belfast Magistrates Court case. The Daily Mail reported some weeks ago that hundreds turned out in support of McConnell, when the pastor made an initial court appearances. “I believe, for the prosecution, this is a hot potato,” the Mail reported he said at the time. “They don’t know how to handle it.” He said he was “looking forward to testifying if they give me a chance. Either they try me and put me in prison or I am free to preach the gospel...”

Mohammad was certainly the false profit Jesus warned us about.

Can there can any doubt?

“Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.

“By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?”

“Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.”

“A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit.”

Is there a tree in all of history that has born more “bad fruit” than Islam?

It’s not even close!

For 1,500 years the world has had to put up with the evil that is Islam.

(1 John 2:22) Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

Islam denies both the Father and the Son and by that scripture they are defined as antichrist .

(Psalms 96:5) For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.

As a Brit, I think this is a ridiculous and insidious use of a charge. Waste of time. And 99% of British, inc Muslims, would agree with me.

Their end game is the complete annihilation of all Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, pagans, atheists and all non-Muslims.

And Hussein Obama, America's FIRST Muslim President, is doing all he can to make it happen.

And folks in this forum like to call the UK government’s leader Prime Minister David Cameron a good leader and a “Conservative” understanding that ‘conservatism is different in the UK’.

We could brand it in secular scientific terms if that would make them feel better.

Islam is psychotic.

Peter Quinn:

They call it the end times. What do you think the be-headings are about? The crucifixions in Deir Hafer, the revival of slavery? Do you think they make this shit up?

It’s all in the book. Their fucking book. The only book they ever read - they read it all the time. They never stop.

They’re there for one reason and one reason only: to die for the Caliphate and usher in a world without infidels. That’s their strategy and it’s been that way since the seventh century.

Islam divides the Universe into two parts Dar Al Islam: domain of the faith (Islam) and Dar Al Harb: whom they are at war with until Judgement Day they seek conquest by any means necessary even by the sword you’re right it is Satanic occultic and demonic

Well said! [United Caliphate].

The dictionary has multiple definitions of ‘satanic’. So yes, Islam is most definitely satanic. Links coming up to back the pastor’s claim.

Trump and Islamic No-Go Zones in England

Five police officers claim Donald Trump is RIGHT about parts of London being so radicalised

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3370457/posts

Serving police officers today backed Donald Trump’s claim that some Muslim communities in the UK are no-go areas because of extremism. Several Met officers have said the ‘Islamification’ of some parts of the capital requires ‘extra vigilance’ and they can’t wear uniforms for safety reasons - despite Scotland Yard claiming the tycoon ‘couldn’t be more wrong’. Home Secretary Theresa May tonight rejected Mr Trump’s claims, insisting: ‘The police in London are not afraid to go out and police the streets.’

The US presidential contender caused worldwide consternation yesterday after a string of incendiary remarks about Muslims, including in Britain ... [snip]

“Islam is psychotic.”

Still hate speech according to their modern Common Law. I have to ‘admire’ the Brits’ courage, their willingness to sacrifice themselves on the alter of Islam. Too bad it isn’t for a better cause, such as during WWII, their finest hour.
