The tragic mass murder committed in Orlando over the weekend should be lamented by all decent people. As a Christian, one can't help but be brokenhearted over the loss of so many lives, as well as concerned over the eternal fate of the victims' immortal souls. Unfortunately, this great tragedy is destined to be repeated over and over again in the days ahead, due to the refusal of today's politically correct world to face the facts over its ever-increasing and intensifying colliding cultures.
The Islamist shooter in Orlando was not an extremist hijacking a peace-loving religion. Instead, he was a true follower of the Religion of the Sword, one faithfully carrying out its tenets. Islam teaches that the sin of homosexuality is a capital offense, punishable by death. In addition, the Koran teaches that it is the religious duty of all Muslims to carry out jihad—holy war—against all unrepentant infidels who refuse to bow their knee to Allah, the god of Islam. Mohammed, the founder of Islam, even went as far as to teach that jihad is the greatest service any Muslim can ever perform in the cause of their god, which explains why the Koran contains 123 verses teaching Muslims to fight and kill in the name of Allah.
When you add to all of the above, the teaching of the Prophet Mohammed about the "martyr's house," you can easily understand why Omar Mateen gunned down victims in Orlando's Pulse gay nightclub while shouting "Allah Akbar," which means "Allah is greater." According to Islam, the only assurance a Muslim has of paradise is if they are killed fighting jihad; that is, killing unrepentant infidels. If killed fighting jihad, they are not only assured of going to paradise, but of going to "the house of the martyrs," which is the "superior house" of paradise. Here, the jihad martyr will receive a mansion within which are seventy houses. In each house is seventy rooms. In each room there is a table with seventy different kinds of food. Beside each table there is a bed. Upon each bed there is seventy sheets of different colors. And upon each sheet there is a beautiful virgin waiting to have sex with the jihad martyr forever.
When you add to the militant Religion of the Sword today's militant LGBT community, you get a most volatile mix. As we all know, gay pride is no longer just parading itself down the Main Streets of our towns, but marching militantly throughout our land. Homosexuals, now armed with the coercive powers of government, thanks to the legalization of same-sex marriage, are demanding the silencing in America of all dissenting voices to their gay agenda, even if it means violating their dissenters' rights to freedom of speech and to freedom of religion. Now, when you get militant homosexuals trying to force their homosexuality on militant Islamists, who believe homosexuality is a capital offense against their god, you're going to see the Religion of the Sword unsheathed and violently wielded against homosexuals, especially by the Omar Mateens of our world who really believe that it is their religious duty to exterminate such menacing infidels.
I know a post like this will gain me no friends or fans, but only result in me being readily and roundly condemned as a homophobe and Islamophobe. However, I would like to asks today's politically correct world, as the Apostle Paul did the Galatians, how telling the truth makes me an enemy of anybody (Galatians 4:16). I'm simply doing what my Christian faith commands me to do; I'm speaking the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15). I love homosexuals and Muslims. Therefore, I want them to come to the knowledge of the truth and be saved (1 Timothy 2:3-4). I want homosexuals to turn from their sin with broken hearts and turn to Christ with all of their hearts. I want Muslims to be delivered from their false faith and come to faith in Christ. In addition, I don't want to see anymore shootings like the one that occurred in Orlando over the weekend. Yet, as long as today's politically correct world keeps calling the Gospel of Jesus Christ—the greatest love story ever told—hate speech, as well as continues to maintain that militant Muslims and homosexuals are tolerant and peace-loving, shootings like the one in Orlando are inevitable.
