For the first time since the birth of Christianity, Christianity is dead in Palestine.
http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/worl ... /77503936/
Christianity, Islam and Judaism lived peacefully in Palestine for most of the last 2000 years, excepting when Muslims and Jews banded together to repulse European Christians in the Crusades.
Well, good bye Christianity; it was lost in Iraq, the longest continuously existing sect of Christianity after the US invasion. Now the first successful genocide in Palestine, the death of it's Christianity.
I think this is a roadmap to what is next.

Is genocide OK if God is on the side of the perpetrator? The Elimination of North and South American Indians? Palestinian Christians? Palestinians?
(FYI Genocide refers to peoples, culture and religious groups, etc..)
Christianity is dead

I don't think it is as there are JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES in Palestine.
It might not be easy but they are definitely lately there.

While there is one God, there are two testaments.
The Old Testament is considerably more ruthless and bloody as compared with the New Testament due to the different requirements under which one could become an heir under the two testaments.
Under the Old Testament the wages of sin was death. If one remained sinless, one would inherit everlasting life.
Therefore, any potential obstacle which might cause one to sin needed to be ruthlessly eliminated.
But under the New Testament covenant one gains everlasting life by believing in Jesus as his or her Savior from the wages of their sins.
Thus sin 8888888888
taught a totally opposite approach of turning the other cheek and forgiveness:
He appears Under the Old Testament one had to obey all commandments without exception and must accept the punishment of death for disobeying any commandment. The wages of sin was death.
Consequently, any source which might cause people to sin needed to be ruthlessly destroyed!
