The better to squeeze your last dying breath out of you. Yeah, how sweet. Not!!!
You'll forgive if I don't get the details of the account completely right, but this reminds me of a story told where a woman took her python to the vet because it seemed to be refusing to eat. The vet asked if it was showing any hostility and she assured him, "not at all, in fact, it gets into bed and stretches out right beside me every night." The vet replied, "That is because he's sizing you up for a meal."

Yes, there are many stories of people being fooled into thinking they can safely befriend a
snake. We had a tragedy here in Canada a few years back (wow, it's been ten years already!),
where two boys were killed by an African rock python as they slept at their uncles' place.

A great deception has been perpetrated upon the world: "Islam is a religion of peace."

How ironic that even Christians defend it, when Muslims are explicitly instructed to kill us.
It seems to me that the "great deception", of nations even, is talked about in Scripture.

I wonder, Cameron, if you think humanity can destroy Hamas? Some army, perhaps, current day the IDF? But the ideology that drives Hamas is enshrined in the Koran. Is Hamas not just one of many entities set up to destroy Israel? Oh, yeah, they are instructed to kill Christians too. They are positioning themselves to do that as well. But I digress. Can any human power stop this movement of anti Christ?
All things are subject to the direct or indirect intervention of God. No one can hinder God from doing as He pleases. So, I'll say yes and no. Yes, Hamas can be destroyed if God doesn't intercede. If He does, no chance.
Even if Hamas is destroyed, the ideas which undergirded their action will not be destroyed. Thus, similarly minded individuals will need to be disallowed in the region afterwards.
The question of an antiChrist movement is a large consideration and depends on a number of factors. I believe I know what you intend in your question, so no. As long as Satan is allowed to operate in the world, there will be a spirit of antiChrist.

At any rate, the end of time culminates in the Lord's brilliance, shining as far as the from the east to the west, illuminating the lies of Satan! \0/

Am I reading this right? as intended to be written? :unsure:
My intention was to say that by human means, Hamas can be destroyed. But if God intercedes on their behalf, no amount of human endeavor will destroy them.

A pile of .:poop:. by any other name is just as stinky and undesirable.

With apologies to roses, of course ...

so the death toll is over 3000 innocent Palestinians half of those children

Over 1 million displaced

Only 33 percent of hospital running with extreme difficult.

Food and supply shortages.

Tens of thousands of Palestinians wounded.

Tell me is it just Hamas acting like terrorists ?
Ministry of Health in Ramallah says its 10,000. A simple fact is Hamas is the ruling authority in Gaza. For me believing those numbers would be very foolish. Groups like Hamas I have seen over the years always say "It was children killed, it was a School, it was hospital". That one they lied about the hospital. Did you see the video or THOUSAND of pamphlets Israel dropped by plane over Gaza telling them to leave, then the videos of Hamas blocking them from leaving.

Its always easy to sit on the out side and judge. We hear from those that were Hamas and others from Palestine saying Israel should not stop till....haha I stopped typing... they said till all are dead. But yeah what is to much. This could turn into a very big war. The best I can do is pray for ALL with in around Israel to know Yeshua as lord.

Anyone who thinks killing 10 000 people to kill maybe 30 terrorists isn't genocide has a seriously wrong moral compass.

Not surprised they tend to be American since it is the same country which killed millions in the middle east.
I agree completely with the moral side of this,

The USA leaders have a lot to answer for but seeing as they have nuclear power, they never will answer, it's the the ordinary people of America I feel sorry for be as once again they will have to pay for this war,

I agree to about Israel's so called justification to wipe Hamas out as good reason, as Hamas will still be here in ten years no matter how much Gazza gets bombed,

They keep saying we will grant cease fire if all the hostages are released ?.. but by the looks of things with the way Gaza been bombed , I wouldn't be surprised if all theese so called hostages are already dead.

But I'm probably only quoting on a decoy here.
