wow... this is great! thanks for the post. i never saw this before.
An angel gave a prophecy for the five Continents of the world in 1998. This is just an iota of what God revealed to one of his servants.
Europe: The Angel said of Europe, I am grieved, I am grieved. Unrighteouness, Uncleanness, ungodliness- all over Europe. The sin has risen to heaven. The Holy Spirit is grieved. " I saw rivers of Europe flodding and covering millions of houses, millions drown. Earthquakwes shall occur all over Europe. Countries that have no earthquakes, shall be shaken. The Eiffel Tower in Paris shall crumble to the ground. A great part of Germany will be destroyed. The great city of London - destruction everywhere.Floods over scandinavia. Spain and Portugal passing through great hunger and great destruction. Many will die .
Asia : Millins are going to hear the voice of the Lord. 'There shall be disaster, starvation - many will die from hunge. Strong winds will be looked like has never before. A great part shall be shaken and destroyed. Eathquakes will take place all over Asia ans the sea will cover the earth. Millions will die in China and India. Nation will be against nation, brother against brother. Asians fight each other. Nuclear weapons shall be used. killing millions ." Catastrophic ! " Financial crisis will come to Asia.( We are seeing some signs in China right now , with all their tainted goods)
God said, " I will shake the world." Folks , you all should be seeking Jesus, in this late hour, instead of staying addicted to that 'narcotic' called ' Religion, will will lead one, to nowhere, but 'Hell". be bless.
What God said about South and North America is just as Bad !.
Vidia, I think you mean to quote religion as "opiate". If religion is so, then why call to yours? I thought of a bumpersticker that will probably get my car vandalized, "Jesus was Muslim, and he worshipped Allah".
I have just received an email, which has evidently been in circulation for at least 5 years, urging the boycott of this stamp. It was SO hateful. It is times like this I am ashamed to be a Christian.
I use the Eid stamp for all of my postal needs. I sent a letter to the local newspaper this week encouraging people to use the stamp and informing them what the stamp celebrates.
I will post a link to that letter when it is published Wednesday.
I'm sorry, but the local newspaper refused to print my letter. I live in a small town in Kentucky, and they are very hostile towards the Eid stamp.
