Taliban Going Door To Door Seeking Christians, Searching Through Phones For Bible Apps
The Daily Wire ^ | 08/19/21 | Jon Brown

Posted on 08/19/2021 12:27:33 PM PDT by Enlightened1

Afghan Christians are reportedly fleeing to the mountains in a desperate attempt to escape the Taliban who is going door to door trying to kill them.

An underground church that partners with Frontier Alliance International (FAI) has reported that the Taliban are targeting Christians for death. According to FAI:

 
 

The Taliban has a hit list of known Christians they are targeting to pursue and kill. The US Embassy is defunct and there is no longer a safe place for believers to take refuge. All borders to neighboring countries are closed and all flights to and from have been halted, with the exception of private planes. People are fleeing into the mountains looking for asylum. They are fully reliant on God, who is the only One who can and will protect them.

The Taliban are going door-to-door taking women and children. The people must mark their house with an “X” if they have a girl over 12 years old, so that the Taliban can take them. If they find a young girl and the house was not marked they will execute the entire family. If a married woman 25 years or older has been found, the Taliban promptly kill her husband, do whatever they want to her, and then sell her as a sex slave.

Husbands and fathers have given their wives and daughters guns and told them that when the Taliban come, they can choose to kill them or kill themselves—it is their choice.

Taliban are also reportedly rifling through people’s phones to look for any apps that would give them away as Christians.

“We’re hearing from reliable sources that the Taliban demand people’s phones, and if they find a downloaded Bible on your device, they will kill you immediately,” said Dr. Rex Rogers, who is president of the Christian nonprofit organization SAT-7 North America, according to Religion News Service. “It’s incredibly dangerous right now for Afghans to have anything Christian on their phones. The Taliban have spies and informants everywhere.”

But aren’t these the kindler, gentler Taliban????

Someone wrote on another thread here, how Islam considers the Bible a holy book, and considers Jesus to be a prophet. And thus the writer concluded this can’t be happening, because true Muslims would NOT destroy what they consider to be a holy book, and would NOT denigrate Jesus, since their religion honors Jesus as a prophet.

The Taliban: confiscating guns from citizens, going door to door searching for Christians, and shooting anyone who disagrees. It’s a leftist paradise!

Democrats are very sick, perverted, and evil , and their message to American citizens begging for their lives from imminent death at the hands of blood thirsty fiends is: Fu_k You - die.😡

House Dem: It’s on trapped Americans in Kabul to find their way to the airport, not us

ED MORRISSEY Aug 19, 2021 2:41 PM ET

Good Lord. We already know that Joe Biden’s retreat from Kabul left thousands of Americans behind Taliban lines, when his pell-mell rush to the exits didn’t bother to consider them. Rep. John Garamendi (D-CA), chair of the House Armed Services subcommittee on readiness, tells CNN that their safety isn’t the responsibility of the military or the administration, at least not until they figure out how to get into the airport:

………………….

Nevertheless, this is one hell of a message to send about one’s own citizens trapped behind Taliban lines, thanks to the country’s decision to abandon them there. The White House has been smart enough to avoid saying this on camera, although the State Department’s advisories to Americans in Afghanistan have strongly implied the same thing.
It’s one thing to imply that, however, and another to declare it. And not just declare it, but do so as Garamendi does here, almost rebuking people for thinking that their government has any responsibility for their safety. You’re on your own, kids. The Secretary will disavow, etc etc etc.
It all points up the incompetence and idiocy behind Joe Biden’s plan for withdrawal. The US knew we had somewhere between ten and fifteen thousand Americans in the city, and the Biden administration had two weeks to watch the Taliban sweep through provinces before they got to Kabul. We could have easily secured exfiltration routes to the airport in that period and established a much larger security perimeter in anticipation of the collapse. Instead, the White House and Pentagon prioritized a military bug-out, only to later throw many more troops back into the airport in a belated effort to keep flights available

Perhaps Garamendi might want to look into those decisions. Y’know … about readiness, and all that. Isn’t that his gig? Instead, he’s trying to provide cover for the abandonment of Americans to our enemies by Biden and his hand-picked leaders at the Pentagon. It’s a disgrace

Matthew 24

6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains.

9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

15 “So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’[a] spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand— 16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let no one on the housetop go down to take anything out of the house. 18 Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. 19 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 20 Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.

22 “If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. 23 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. 24 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time.

I’m sorry but we hear all these reports but my question is. Where are all the Taliban? Since this whole debacle started we haven’t seen more than a handful of them. Show me the Taliban!

and should be a wake up call for those who think “The Rapture” is going to save them.
Over the centuries, many good Christians and Jews have been executed for just being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Don’t be in the wrong place.
Start preparing NOW and have at least 2-3 backup plans.

I have been thinking all week long...

In order for Revelation to happen...

The United States must be made small to non-existent.

In this country, the Dems know that the Christian men are real men and not beta soy boys, so they would get crushed.

Compare all that to how President Trump moved Heaven and Earth to get a single American out from some third world bleep hole country repeatedly. Reagan during the summits with Gorbo would famously take out a list of a few Christians imprisoned in the Soviet Union and say they needed to be part of any deal.

Show me the Taliban,. Exactly, there are 25 million people in Afghanistan and about 70,000 Taliban, how do they have enough to control the whole country much less go door to door terrorizing people. Just doesnt seem like enough, these people are 7th century tribal savages, you think a few Taliban come waltzing into a village those nutjobs would club them to death. They have no concept of defending your country or fellow man, but your tribe is where it’s at.
