John 16:2 Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God.
The leader of the Islamic terrorist organization Boko Haram has released a new video where he declares his group is at war with Christians throughout the world.
“We know what is happening in this world,” Abubakar Shekau says, “It is a Jihad war against Christians and Christianity. It is a war against western education, democracy and constitution.”
Shekau goes on to say that even with the kidnapping of the girls and spending the last few years launching terrorist attacks on towns throughout the northern part of the country, the Jihad has not yet begun in Nigeria.
“We have not started,” he says, “next time we are going inside [Nigeria’s capital] Abuja. We are going to refinery and town of Christians.”
He goes on to say the Koran tells him that he needs to kill anyone who is Christian or associated with Christians because that is Allah’s will.
The group, whose name means “Western Education is sinful”, is the subject of a manhunt by Nigerian military officials and western air forces after their kidnapping of over 300 Christian girls from a school and village last month.
