Kim Sun-il was a Korean Christian who had a vision to bring the Gospel to Muslims. So he studied Arabic and in 2004 worked in Iraq as an interpretor.

"All the while he shared the Gospel message with those he met. After Kim's death, the group that claimed responsibility, Tawhid wa al-Jihad, made this statement on their website: "We have killed an infidel who tried to propagate Christianity in Iraq... This infidel studied theology and was preparing to become a missionary in the Islamic world." Joel Richardson, The Islamic Antichrist, 2009

You can read about this kidnapping and brutal murder which was broadcast on the internet and talked about in the media all over the world. 

Joel Richardson points out that few reports mentioned that Kim Sun-il was a Christian and that this is why he died. The video tapes showed how he suffered and pleaded for his life, but at the end he died courageously. There is a challenge here for us, Richardson says, that we be willing to embrace the shame of the cross knowing that martyrdom is not glorious.

I recommend Richardson's book. His call at the end to fight the rise of Islam because the outcome is not certain is great. He points to the need for prayer and for greater outreach to Moslems. We here are trying to do that and more - to speak out and raise awareness in a sleepy, frightened, selfish world, to challenge, in an active and open way our diminishing right to free speech in this country, to get in the Devil's face in any way we can think of, to get the Christian church to wake up and fight. 

Richardson quotes from Francis Frangipane's article "This Day We Fight!" and I also copy that here.  

The conflict before our generation is no less threatening than Nazism and Soviet Imperialism. Radical Islam is a demonic power that seeks world domination. We cannot loose the war against terrorism or morality. We must not open to fear or unbelief, for we were born to fight and win the battles of our times. Again the argument arises, "I was taught that life is supposed to only grow more evil until Christ returns." Yes such a day will come but we must not assume that it has arrived. In every age God requires that we walk as overcomers. The very fact that there are nations today that are experiencing great harvests and breakthroughs reminds us there is still time for our nations. One of our readers sent us the following excerpt from Aragorn, king of Gondor, in Return of the King. The book's author, J.R.R. Tolkien, an Englishman, denied his work had anything to do with the Great War. Yet much of his manuscript was written during the height of WWII. The book is a metaphor of all the battles that each generation must face to conquer evil...

Hopelessly outnumbered, King Aragorn sought to inspire his men against what seemed like sure defeat against the swarming hordes of their hellish enemies. Riding in front of his gathered but rather lowly army, he shouted, "I see in your eyes the same fear that would break the heart of me. A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends, and break all bonds of fellowship. But not this day. This day we fight...by all you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you stand with me, men of the West."
