UNIUS REI VS NIMROD BAAL IMF 666 — Micah 5:1-6 [a]Marshal your
troops now, city of troops, for a siege is laid against us. They will
strike Israel’s ruler, on the cheek with a rod. 2. “But you, Bethlehem
Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans[b] of Judah, out of you
will come for me, one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are
from of old, from ancient times.” 3. Therefore Israel will be abandoned
until the time when she who is in labor bears a son, and the rest of
his brothers return, to join the Israelites. -
UNIUS REI VS NIMROD BAAL IMF 666 — 4. He will stand and
shepherd his flock, in the strength of the Lord, in the majesty of the
name of the Lord his God. And they will live securely, for then his
greatness, will reach to the ends of the earth. 5. And he will be our
peace, when the Assyrians invade our land and march through our
fortresses. We will raise against them seven shepherds, even eight
commanders, 6. who will rule[c] the land of Assyria with the sword, the
land of Nimrod with drawn sword.[d] He will deliver us from the
Assyrians, when they invade our land, and march across our borders. -

video: 66 crudele male criminale Quranic Verses Inspired Satan
koran prophet muhammad quran, 8:33″ —- max76689 8 months ago:
Christians = satan. Islam is true. = John = 17:3. This is eternal life:
that they may know You (God = Allah), the only true God. And Jesus
Christ Whom you have sent. Christians worship messenger: O Wake
Christians: Christians go to hell fire:– ANSWER– in truth, there is
not a religious truth, which can be imposed: with the violence of law,
because, the truth can be understood only by the power of the heart,
that is love! when you, Muslims will stop: to hate, despise and judge
honest people? (because it is by its fruit, which the tree is known)
then, only then, you will learn to know God: personally! -
God the Creator of the heavens and the earth and man said in the
Holy Quran. (83) Say (O Muhammad): We believe in Allah (God) and That
Which is revealed unto us and revealed unto Abraham and Ishmael That
Which Was and Isaac and Jacob and the tribes, and That Which Was
vouchsafed unto Moses and Jesus and Their prophets from the Lord. We
make no distinction between any of them, and unto Him we have
surrendered. (84)Surah Al-E-Imran – ANSWER – IF YOU were doing the works
of God and the prophets? you would never have killed innocent people
(Christians), but Satan is your father, because you do the same works
that murderer of Muhammad had done, in fact, you do not follow the
teachings of Jesus, it is impossible for a Muslim to enter, in heaven if
despise the Bible, or the Gospel, but many Muslims Satanists, they burn
the Bible and the Gospel! -
max76689 said: God says in the Quran: (74) The Messiah, son of
Mary, was no other than a messenger, messengers (the like of whom) had
passed away before him. And his mother was a saintly woman. Both And
they used to eat (earthly) food. See how We make the revelations clear
for them, and see how they are turned away! (75) Surah Al-Maeda: in =
jesus bible say = This is eternal life: that they may know You the only
true God and Jesus Christ Whom you have sent, but, Christians worship
messenger. – ANSWER – you will not be condemned for being a Muslim,
because Muslims good people? go to Heaven, you will be condemned,
because, not having, received a divine revelation, you personally, as
many Muslims, who have become Christians, you judge the infinite things
of God, to do harm to innocent people on matters of conscience -
I HATE GOOGLE PLUS

if you understand Christianity? then, also, you will be killed
by the Muslims, because, in their eyes, you will always be, a
blasphemer and idolater! but this is the truth, God has given free will,
while satanaAllah, has captured:: taken it!se tu capisci il cristianesimo? poi, anche, tu sarai ucciso dai
musulmani, perché, ai loro occhi, tu sarai sempre, un blasfemo ed
idolatra! ma, questa è la verità, Dio ha dato il libero arbitrio,
mentre, satanaAllah lo ha tolto! -
Christians believe that God is love … a love which suffers and
shares: the penis of men, through the Messiah, Christ Jesus, there
must be no violence or contempt on religion, the Prophet says, but, you
kill innocent Christians martyrs: 300 every day! -
