Real Testimony

[BlackHD]

We know that 80% of the town of Meulaboh in Aceh was destroyed by the
Tsunami waves and 80% of the people also died. This is one of the
towns that was hit the hardest.

But there is a fantastic testimony from Meulaboh. In that town are
about 400 Christians. They wanted to celebrate Christmas on December
25th but were not allowed to do so by the Muslims of Meulaboh. They
were told if they wanted to celebrate Christmas they needed to go
outside the city of Meulaboh on a high hill and they can celebrate
Christmas there. Because the Christians desired to celebrate Christmas
the 400 believers left the city on
December 25th and after they celebrated Christmas they stayed overnight on
the hill.

As we all know, in the morning of Sunday, December 26 -2004, there was the
earthquake followed by the Tsunami waves destroying most of the city of
Meulaboh and thousands were killed. The 400 believers were on the mountain
and were all saved from destruction.

Now the Muslims of Meulaboh are saying that the God of the Christians
punished us for forbidding the Christians from celebrating Christmas in the
city. Others are questioning why so many Muslims died while not even one of
the Christians died there.

Had the Christians insisted on their rights to celebrate Christmas in the
city, they would have all died. But because they humbled themselves and
followed the advice of the Muslims they all were spared destruction and can
now testify of God's marvelous protection.

This is a testimony of the grace of God and the fact that as believers we
have no rights in the world. Our right is to come before God and commit
our lives to Him. Our right is kneeling down before the Lord Almighty and
committing our ways to Him. He is our Father and is very capable to care
for
His children. Praise the Name of the Lord.

WE SERVE A LIVING GOD!!!

[BlackHD]

that's why the only thing we shouldn't offend is religious.

 

[protnosss]

i think someone made this up.

first of all, muslim would not consider christian's god as GOD.
and vice versa.

just like in christainity, any other religion god is considered devil am i right?

they say satan makes many disguises.....religion....medicine...everything ler...

many ways to elaborate it...nice way and bad ways

the bad ways will be....other religion besides christianity is disguise from satan which is fake.....

same goes to islam..

 

[protnosss]

although i am much like a free thinker, i do absorb a bit knowledge on all religion if i come across..

this article is espeicially not true to me as it mentioned "In that town are
ABOUT 400 Christians" and "the 400 believers left the city "
this accuracy already shows the simplicity in making up this article.
it mentioned ABOUT 400, then mentioned exactly 400 go up(none left to die), and ALL 400 stayed up the hill overnight? ---> unlikely to be this figure

to me, if the islam extremist do not allow them to celebrate, whether up the hill or down the water they will be forced to not celebrate...

and they even mentioned "God of the Christians punished us"
this is fake as a more believable sentence that come out from an islam extremist would be "Devil of the Christian punished us and Allah has saved us all to heaven and punished the devil in return"
if that were said, it probably had more credibility because in islam or christianity, my god is the GOD and any other 'god' is fake/devil?

but but....of all the destruction....only a mosque was left standing still like nothing had happened....to me that is god(Allah)'s way to show his wrath and the destruction that could befall to those(muslim) who defies Him....to me...after seeing that...ive felt humbled and felt very little....aihh....hope its not another tsunami though...

'about' 400 is just mentioned. wherelse none of the 'about' 400 died is the right figure. common sense again please

to me, if the islam extremist do not allow them to celebrate, whether up the hill or down the water they will be forced to not celebrate...

how sure are you that they are 'islam extremist' ? get your facts right before commenting please

and they even mentioned "God of the Christians punished us"
this is fake as a more believable sentence that come out from an islam extremist would be "Devil of the Christian punished us and Allah has saved us all to heaven and punished the devil in return"

and now you are speaking on behalf of the Achenese ? jeez...don't get so shallow boy

Then you compare the building structure and material between the mosque and residential houses.

throw a block of brick and few satay sticks into a flowing monsoon drain, you'll get the idea

 

[silverzilla]

we should respect all religions, not play play with religion issues la, aiya i think the first thread is innapropriate

 

[si|verfish]

How is it innapropriate? It could cause religious tension?

Just read it and leave it at there. Being something you just read. Anyone who gets offended or riled reading that should be shot so that they don't polluted the gene pool.
