A Sida spokesman said: “Swedish Development Cooperation does not support the promotion of violence or terrorism, neither in Palestine [sic] nor elsewhere. Furthermore, we have absolutely no indication that the activities that Save the Children carries out in Palestine [sic] with Sida support (approximately $2m over three years) promote violence or terrorism, and we are convinced that this is not the case.”


Yet here is the evidence, right in front of their faces. There is never any shortage of Useful Idiots, and nowadays, of Useful Idiots who buy into “Palestinian” propaganda and therefore hate Israel and wish to see it destroyed.







“Palestinian children dress as terrorists and put on a play about attacking Israelis – complete with weapons, a drone and body cameras – as proud parents watch at graduation ceremony,” by Chris Pleasance, MailOnline, August 29, 2019:





Video has emerged showing Palestinian children staging a mock terrorist raid on an Israeli military outpost as part of a kindergarten graduation ceremony.



The footage was filmed at Dar al Huda school in the Zeitoun neighbourhood of Gaza City in March last year, and shows five youngsters wearing uniforms of terror group Palestinian Islamic Jihad staging the raid.



In the video – which includes footage shot by a drone and bodycamera – the children can be seen carrying replica sniper rifles and assault weapons as they perform sophisticated military manoeuvres in order to ‘capture’ the building.



Inside are two children – one dressed as an Israeli civilian and another as an Israeli soldier – both of whom are shown being captured.



The video was posted to Facebook and uncovered by research organisation NGO Monitor, which passed the footage to Mail Online.



The group also uncovered an image of a training guide the school uploaded to its Facebook page in the same year which shows the Save the Children and Swedish Government logo at the top.



The Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) website shows that the country was giving aid money to schools in the West Bank and Gaza that year as part of a programme running from 2017 until 2019.



In total, the agency gave almost $20million to fund school projects, including $6.6million in the year the video was filmed.



Among the aims of the project was to ‘prevent and raise awareness at a societal and community level that all forms of violence are not to be tolerated and that the government is responsible for ensuring child rights and protection.’



A Sida spokesman said: ‘Swedish Development Cooperation does not support the promotion of violence or terrorism, neither in Palestine nor elsewhere.



‘Furthermore, we have absolutely no indication that the activities that Save the Children carries out in Palestine with Sida support (approximately $2m over three years) promote violence or terrorism, and we are convinced that this is not the case.



‘As far as we can judge the only connection between this video clip and Swedish support via Save the Children is the possibility that some teacher from this school may have participated in a workshop organized by Save the Children that promotes non-violent forms of discipline in schools.’…



In March 2017, The Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center published video and images which depicted a similar ceremony at the same school.



In the footage, four children wearing uniforms of the Jerusalem Battalions – PIJ’s military wing – are seen shooting and killing two children dressed as ultra-Orthodox Jews at a mock roadblock….

JUSTIN PETERS: CLOUDS WITHOUT WATER-DANGEROUS DOCTRINES~THE WORD OF FAITH MOVEMENT & CATHOLICISM EXPOSED AS CULTS

JUSTIN PETERS: CLOUDS WITHOUT WATER-DANGEROUS DOCTRINES
DEADLY DOCTRINES: CATHOLICISM IS A THEOLOGICAL CULT
What do Catholics actually believe, is it really all that different from Protestants? This week, we look at the Roman Catholic understanding of justification, or, how a person is made righteous before God. As we compare it to Scripture, we will see just how different, even deadly, it is.

CATHOLICISM PERVERTS THE BIBLE’S “GRACE ALONE” INTO A FRANKENSTEIN’S MONSTER OF SACRAMENTAL WORKS

CATHOLICISM PERVERTS THE BIBLE’S “GRACE ALONE” INTO A FRANKENSTEIN’S MONSTER 
OF SACRAMENTAL WORKS

“By grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God”
– Ephesians 2:8. Understanding that sin makes us thick-headed, unwilling to accept certain truths when they receive minimal emphasis, the biblical authors repeat foundational doctrines so that they might penetrate our hearts and minds. The man-made religions of this world prove that without the work of the Holy Spirit, people think that they are basically good and can contribute something to their salvation. This strips glory from God and gives it to us, for if we can do even one thing to merit salvation, then we deserve some credit. All belief systems except biblical Christianity encourage us to believe that we contribute to our salvation, even if they deceitfully assert otherwise.

Rob Zins has authored the books, “On the Edge of Apostasy,” “Romanism: The Relentless Roman Catholic Assault on the Gospel of Jesus Christ” & materials. Part 4.

It should have been clear from reading Ephesians 2:1–7 that the Lord owes us nothing but justice and wrath. (Moreover, this is taught throughout the Bible: Gen. 6:5–7; Deut. 7:6–11; Ps. 51:4; Rom. 1:18–3:20; James 2:10–11). But in case we missed it, Paul in Ephesians 2:8–10 tells us one more time that we bring nothing with us to our redemption, and that any good works we perform are not the ground of our status before God but result from us having been chosen and gifted with salvation: “By grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God” (Eph. 2:8). Grace, by definition, excludes the slightest hint that human merit contributes to our righteous standing before the most holy and perfect Creator, and faith, which admits our inability to help ourselves and rests wholly on another for salvation, confirms that our works have no power to atone for our wickedness. If, on the part of God, it is grace alone, and if we bring nothing but faith, which strips us of all commendations, it follows that salvation does not come from us.

Of course, faith is something that we exercise, and so some Christians think we bring this to the table when we are saved. They think we work faith up in ourselves and that all people are born with the ability to do so. Ephesians 2:8 makes this view impossible. The grammatical gender of the demonstrative this in “this is not your own doing” must refer back to the entire complex of things Paul mentions in the verse — salvation, grace, and faith. It is true that we are the ones who put our faith in Christ, but God gives us this faith and guarantees that we will exercise it unto salvation. If the Holy Spirit changes our hearts, we will not refuse the call to trust in Christ.

The doctrine of irresistible grace is quite simple — if God wants us, then He will get us. Though He may allow us to resist His call for a time, if He has chosen to set His grace on us, then we will certainly believe and persevere, for all whom the Father has given to Jesus must come to the Savior (John 6:37). We cannot even give ourselves credit for our faith, so let us be thankful for His grace and live in the way that He commands.

The Catholic Church claims to have the same authority of Christ as the apostles (CCC 77, 85, 88, 895, 1495, 888). But, can the Pope and the Bishops do what Jesus and the apostles did? Jesus said his authority to forgive sins was demonstrated by his miracles which he exercised on command (Matt. 9:6; Luke 5:24; John 5:8). He gave this authority to the disciples to pronounce forgiveness of sins (John 20:23), heal all disease and sickness (Matt. 10:1), as well as raise the dead (Matt. 10:8). Jesus healed paralytics on command (Luke 5:24; Matt. 9:6; Mark 2:10-12). Peter also healed the paralytic on command (Acts 9:34). Jesus raised the dead with a command (Mark 5:38-42; Luke 7:14-15; John 11:43-44). Peter raised the dead by command (Acts 9:40-41). So, apostolic authority was clearly demonstrated by the apostles uttering commands of healing and raising the dead. Since Jesus gave the apostles the authority to do the miraculous on command (Matt. 10:1, 8), then those with the apostle’s authority (the Pope and the Bishops) should be able to do the same thing since they claim to have the same apostolic authority. Since the Pope and Bishops do not do the miraculous on command (otherwise it would be known to all), then they do not have apostolic authority.

Matthew 7:15

MUSLIM-CATHOLIC DOCUMENT ON WORLD PEACE “FULL OF OUTRAGEOUSLY FALSE & MISLEADING STATEMENTS”

MUSLIM-CATHOLIC DOCUMENT ON WORLD PEACE “FULL OF OUTRAGEOUSLY FALSE & MISLEADING STATEMENTS”
BY ROBERT SPENCER

All that this dialogue has led to is Christian leaders being quiet about Muslim persecution of Christians, for fear of offending their dialogue partners. Has this been reciprocated by Muslims? Have Muslim spokesmen stopped being critical of Christians and Christianity? Of course not. The “dialogue” is all dawah on one side and Useful Idiots, eager to be deceived, on the other.



Robert McManus, Roman Catholic Bishop of Worcester, Massachusetts, said it on February 8, 2013 as he was suppressing a planned talk (by me) at a Catholic conference on that persecution: “Talk about extreme, militant Islamists and the atrocities that they have perpetrated globally might undercut the positive achievements that we Catholics have attained in our inter-religious dialogue with devout Muslims.”



Remember that Mohamed Atta, about the plane he had hijacked on September 11, 2001, told passengers over the intercom: “Stay quiet and you’ll be OK.” The Catholic Church appears to have adopted that statement as its policy regarding Muslim persecution of Christians.



“Leave them; they are blind guides. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.” (Matthew 15:14)







“Pope Francis Praises New Interreligious Initiative for World Peace,” by William Mahoney, ChurchMilitant, August 28, 2019:





VATICAN CITY (ChurchMilitant.com) – Pope Francis lauded a new initiative Monday to implement a joint interreligious document on world peace that he and the grand imam of al-Azhar signed in February.



The initiative, a higher committee established in Abu Dhabi Aug. 19 to ensure the objectives of the “Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together” are met, includes Vatican and Muslim officials.
This ‘Document on Human Fraternity’ is full of outrageously false and misleading statements.

Pope Francis praised the new initiative in a press release from the Holy See on Wednesday: Although sadly evil, hatred and division often make news, there is a hidden sea of goodness that is growing and leads us to hope in dialogue, reciprocal knowledge and the possibility of building, together with the followers of other religions and all men and women of good will, a world of fraternity and peace. Church Militant spoke with Robert Spencer, the director of Jihad Watch and a Shillman fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center, about the document and this new initiative. “This ‘Document on Human Fraternity’ is full of outrageously false and misleading statements,” he said. “One is the claim that terrorism is due to ‘an accumulation of incorrect interpretations of religious texts and to policies linked to hunger, poverty, injustice, oppression and pride.'” Spencer explained how this claim about terrorism is false and misleading: If terrorists’ interpretations of Islamic religious texts are incorrect, then so are the interpretations of those texts by all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence, all of which, without exception, teach the necessity of the Islamic community worldwide to wage war against unbelievers and subjugate them under the hegemony of Islamic law. Bishop Miguel Guixot, president of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue and a member of the higher committee, offered a different interpretation of “Document on Human Fraternity” in an interview with Vatican News: I think the Abu Dhabi declaration is a global appeal to the ‘civilization of love’ that contrasts with those who want a clash of civilizations! Prayer, dialogue, respect and solidarity are the only winning weapons against terrorism, fundamentalism and all kinds of war and violence. They are weapons that are part of the spiritual arsenals of all religions. Peace is a precious good, an aspiration that lives in the heart of every man, a believer or not, and which should inspire every human action. Spencer disagrees that dialogue is a winning weapon against terrorism: “Pope Francis’ much-vaunted ‘dialogue’ has never saved one Christian from being persecuted by Muslims, or prevented one church from being destroyed by jihadis. Nor will it ever do these things, as it is based on fantasy and wishful thinking, not on reality.”…
