Revelation 6:3-4 NCV When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!"4 Then another horse came out, a red one. Its rider was given power to take away peace (prosperity, rest) from the earth and to make people kill each other (butcher, slaughter, to maim violently, in streets), and he was given a big sword (assassins sword, terrorist, loud, mighty, sore afraid).
“Hardly a day goes by when our senses are not bludgeoned by some new outbreak of terrorism in the Middle East. Despite our best efforts at making and keeping the peace, political, economic, and religious tensions often lead to unrest, violence, and riots.”
-Jim Bakker in “Prosperity and the Coming Apocalypse”
The BBC is reporting that the spokesman for the Al-Qaeda related terrorist group Boko Haram has been killed by Nigerian military forces.
A military spokesman told the BBC that two militants had been taken into custody by military forces and that one of the two men had later died while in custody. Boko Haram is refusing to confirm that their spokesman, Abu Qaqa, is the man who died while in government custody.
The government’s joint military task force stopped a car in northern Nigeria suspected of carrying Boko Haram leaders. One of the men was shot as he tried to flee the scene. He died at a military hospital.
Boko Haram is supported by Al Qaeda and has killed over 1,400 people and is responsible for the recent spate of bombings aimed at taking out the nation’s cellular phone system. They have sworn to overthrow the government and install Sharia Law.
