ISIS is an awful case. Interesting article from the BBC on the Vaticans views on how to handle ISIS. http://m.bbc.com/news/world-europe-31893351 To the Catholic Church's credit, it's the Catholics (and I must say the Grahams in America) that have expressed the most horror at what is going on with ISIS, IS, ISIL or whatever those demons are called this week.
The difference is isis is not a government or political movement. It is a religion that wants world domination. They want world domination for a religious world order. With the basic principle of either you join or you die. They cannot accept any treaties or peace plans because it is against the koran itself. So, there is no way to appease isis. In the final days the gates of hell will open and demons will be looking for bodies to enter. (So dramatic). But maybe isis is the main army of evil. I see that the spirit of the anti-christ is everywhere but it is still being held back by prayer and fasting. With isis evil has been let loose on earth. May Gods Will be Done
Major solar storm hits Earth, may pull northern lights south WASHINGTON (AP) — A severe solar storm smacked Earth with a surprisingly big geomagnetic jolt Tuesday, potentially affecting power grids and GPS tracking while pushing the colorful northern lights farther south, federal forecasters said. Forecasters said early Tuesday, before sunrise, auroras were already seen in the northern tier of the U.S., such as Washington state, North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota and Wisconsin. MMM...Can you give us a report from Canada??? wrong day to ask...its green beer day : )
Not dark here yet in south eastern Ontario but will be checking out the skies really soon. No beer tonight but I do like my beer. Haven't seem the northern lights in about 25 years.
I don't have the answer to your question, but I do know that we are not in the time of the past Crusades (unless it is a rosary Crusade), and a WW3 could literally destroy the planet (many prophecies have this taking place). And we are not in the same conditions as WW2 where there was clearly a good vs. evil well defined and there was yet good countries and leaders in the late 30's and early 40's. Neither can be said for our sad world today. I am far from being a pacifist, but we are in different times then any before us. Perhaps this is why heaven is forever repeating to fast, pray and live in the Divine Will. Heaven is continually telling us that those in grace doing the will of God will be protected (however, not the lack of suffering). I could never see my sons fighting for the Obama army as he is a most immoral, unconscience, self absorbed leader ever in the US. He could care less for any of the servicemen and he would put them in harms way if it benefited him. So who we going to fight for and for what end? Like I said, before in a previous thread, when the Great Catholic Monarch arises, it will be only his army that I could support in our times.
Fatima, I can assure you that as far as Obama goes we are in TOTAL Agreement but you are using him as a Straw Man argument to support your, like Obama's, dithering-n-let's do nothing when faced by manifest Evil that is Here-n-Now.... at least you are a man of prayer!! I have NO DOUBT that prayer has been involved in VICTORY since Old Testament Times but that victory was accomplished by God guided sweaty-n-smelly men armed to the teeth and willing to lay down their lives for their Faith-n-Friends. As near as I can figure, God has always used men's hands to do his work, war or peace, 99% of the time. GOD SAVE ALL HERE!
Funny, the Pope has already declared the enemy. And he states it comes directly from "the created one". Not only that, the Vatican has declared two wars. Humanism which can be battled with prayer and fasting. But the vatican has already declared isis as the second war. The vatican understands EVIL needs to be stopped with armed forces. The vatican would never suggest that unless they have used all their options. Isis is EVIL...lets get this through everyones head. Demons/Evil have taken over an army. Once you open your eyes to the reality, then we can move forward. As bad as we may think Russia, North Korea, China and the USA is. There is always a possibility (through prayer and fasting) things can change. Peace is at least possible. But the Vatican understands there is no peace with isis. It is pure evil and demonic. This has nothing to do with ww3, it has to do with evil. May Gods Will be Done
Honestly I have been struggling with this isis situation, here we have an army that seems to have come from the depth of hell, fully incarnated by demons, but these people are human beings. "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers, against the directors of this world of darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in high places." Don't you think we are feeding these demons if we instead of praying and fasting for these people are wishing them death and resenting them? Instead of feeling a little compassion for them as they clearly seem to be totally possessed by evil. To me abortion is the worst crime, yet if you repent God will forgive you. What I want to say here is that evil feeds off evil, all sins we commit are connected somehow, for instance like a giant pool where demons are filled with power, sadly this pool is already overflowing, and we are contributing day by day each time we sin. Isis, abortions, violence etc, are the results of our sins. We are not in the middle east, thanks God we are not suffering at the moment,but our time to suffer will come and we will act according to Gods will. Some will be prepared to be martyrs and some will fight all for the glory of God. Yes there is a time for everything, now our time is a time of praying for all , this way we will make sure we are not feeding these demos so easily.
Yes fallen saint, when the Vatican calls for armed response to fight ISIS that tells me everything I need to know.

GOD forgive US!! Fighting EVIL is not evil! You don't turn the other cheek to EVIL. There is no compromise with EVIL. In war with EVIL there is no substitute for victory.

Just got in my car and heard Catholic Radio. The first three hours is devoted to the calling of the Vatican for Isis to be stopped. They must be reading Padraigs forum. Brother al
In that respect, the Iraqi refugee echoes the call of the Vatican’s Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin, who warned that rise of the caliphate in Libya demands “quick intervention.” However, the cardinal said any military intervention should be “under the auspices of the U.N.” For Middle East Christians, UN indifference is deadly Madrid, Spain, Mar 5, 2015 / 01:00 pm (EWTN News/CNA)
ISIS is easily and clearly declared evil. They must be stopped. Of course we can't forget the covert Israel/US/Turkey/SA completely boneheaded missteps in helping to fund, train and arm them. It's a gong show at best. Now we are fighting against radicals using arms, military vehicles and $$$ provided by western allies. In fact they continue to support supposedly "moderate" radicals in hopes of overthrowing Assad. What a joke. US gov't "I realize our infastructure is crumbling, medicare and pension future costs are beyond the ability to fund, 50 million are on food stamps, etc. etc but here is 500 million dollars for Syrian rebels. Where the money goes we don't care, just please try and take out Assad and if it back fires on us we'll play stupid and ignorate, ok, we arn't playing" Now back to those roads and bridges crumbling and all those American starving children....sorry we just can't find the $$. This is evil too.
At least the Pope gets it and has been declaring it from the rooftops. Evil is on the loose and it's spreading. We need men and women of good conscience to stand up and fight this evil, yes in prayer but also in deed. Tunisia today, where will it be tomorrow? When will it be your church, your pastor, your brother and sister, your son or daughter? http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/03/18/us-tunisia-security-idUSKBN0ME18E20150318
Gunmen storm Tunisian museum, kill two Tunisians, 17 foreign tourists TUNIS, March 18 (Reuters) - Gunmen in military uniforms stormed Tunisia's national museum, killing 17 foreign tourists and two Tunisians on Wednesday in one of the worst militant attacks in a country that has largely escaped the region's "Arab Spring" turmoil. Visitors from Italy, Germany, Poland and Spain were among the dead in the noon assault on the Bardo museum near parliament in central Tunis, Prime Minister Habib Essid said
And the Euro security chief is saying it's ISIS, big surprise there, right Infant? Is anyone struck by the way the election in Israel unfolded? Obama did all he could to unseat Netanyahu dispatching his campaign team and even sending funds (more illegal activity by the most lawless president this country has ever had) and Netanyahu not only "came from behind" defying all odds and predictions but won quite handily. I sense the hand of God intervening here to protect His people: http://www.breitbart.com/national-s...in-israel-netanyahu-comes-from-behind-to-win/
