MUSLIM MAN GIVES CHRISTIAN WIFE SHOCKING UTIMATUM: DENY JESUS OR LOSE BABY

NEWS: MUSLIM MAN GIVES CHRISTIAN WIFE SHOCKING UTIMATUM: DENY JESUS OR LOSE BABY

Socially, a kafir (“infidel”) loses all status in Muslim culture; they cannot marry or claim inheritance, for example. Reuters
A mother in Central Asia who converted to Christianity from Islam has been forced by her husband to either deny Jesus Christ or risk losing her baby, a persecution watchdog group has revealed.
Open Doors USA shares the story of Sameda, a woman who converted from Islam to Christianity three years ago. Despite leaving Islam, she married a Muslim man due to societal pressures to get married.
“Initially, we were very happy until he became more interested in my faith. Certainly, I did not hide the fact that I am a Christian and told him that God touched my life one day. After these words, my husband seemed to change,” the woman revealed.
Because he was not a devout Muslim, Sameda’s husband Rashid was not opposed to her Christian faith – at first. However, after realizing she was serious about following Jesus, he began pressuring her to convert back to Islam. He beat her a number of times – even when she was five months pregnant – yet Sameda refused to renounce her faith.
“Of course, I told him I would remain faithful to Christ,” the woman said. “I can’t imagine my life without Jesus anymore.”

But after Sameda gave birth to their daughter, the persecution worsened. Rashid threatened to leave her and take the baby if she refused to convert back to Islam. Eventually, he kicked her out of the house because of her faith, along with her daughter.
“It was so hugely stressful and such a tragedy for me,” she said. “My beloved husband, who always seemed so kind and caring; he kicked me out of his house with a month-old baby without any means of subsistence!”
Today, Sameda and her baby now live with her mother in the capital city. However, she could still lose her child if a divorce is to be finalized, Open Doors notes, due to laws in that country that give fathers custody of children in such cases.
“I don’t ask God to give me back my husband, to keep my family,” the woman said. “Most of all, I need to be strong in my faith. I don’t want to lose it, to lose the relationship with Christ, but sometimes it is too hard. I need to have contact with other believers.”
Open Doors revealed that it has been assisting Sameda with basic needs and with care for the baby. The organization urges Christians around the world to pray for the safety of Sameda and her daughter and peace in the midst of these trials.
Earlier this year, the Christian organization released a list highlighting some of the greatest human rights offenders toward Christians. “Islamic oppression” was overwhelmingly identified as the top driver of Christian persecution in a number of countries.
“Islamic Oppression is one of the most widely recognized sources of persecution for Christians in the world today – and it continues to spread – aiming to bring many parts of the world under Sharia law,” says Open Doors. “The movement, which often results in Islamic militancy and persecution of Christians, is expanding in Asia (Philippines, Bangladesh, Indonesia) and Africa (Egypt, Nigeria, Somalia).”
The organization said the list of Christian persecutors was not created to “stir up anger – although righteous anger is expected – but to move us all toward prayer and action.”
“So as we pray against the evil mentioned in this article, we can also pray hopefully that God’s kingdom would come, and His will would be done,” says Open Doors. “Here on earth now, and then in completion for eternity.”

BREAST CANCER DIAGNOSIS BRINGS CHURCH LEADER AND LIFE COACH TO SPIRITUAL AWAKENING

NEWS: BREAST CANCER DIAGNOSIS BRINGS CHURCH LEADER AND LIFE COACH TO SPIRITUAL AWAKENING

Morrison-Netter had a unilateral mastectomy and refers to herself as a ‘breast cancer survivor and thriver.’

As the co-founder of the Graceway Church in Arlington, Texas over 25 years ago, Gail Morrison-Netter has made a profound impact on her community and beyond with mission trips to the Caribbean and the continent of Africa.
In addition to her non-denominational church, Morrison-Netter has a 30-year background in marital and family counseling, and owns and operates “Spa for the Spirit Life Coaching” where she serves as a spiritual life coach.
Her experiences as a church leader and counselor led to the release of her 2015 book “Look In The Mirror and Fall In Love” about self-worth and self-love. Little did Morrison-Netter know that she would have to follow the advice she gives out to so many others when she was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year, January 2018.
“First, you think certain things will never happen to you,” Morrison-Netter told Lee Bailey in a recent phone interview. “So, you don’t put them inside of your spirit, so breast cancer was not me. I thought I was having thyroid issues because I was having different symptoms. I had friends around me with breast cancer and I was consoling them and counseling them with the Word.”
She continued, “It was surreal at first. I’m like not me, ‘I’m living life to the fullest. I’m upbeat and Miss Positive Energy and all that and I have breast cancer? Really? So, it took a minute to settle in with me.”

After the initial shock of the diagnosis, Morrison-Netter went into action so the cancer would not take control of her spirit.
“I said Lord, ‘What do you want me to do with this breast cancer experience? You didn’t bring me to this to leave me. So, I need to draw some extra power from you in this crisis.’ I was thinking about all of the things I told other people about their breast cancer and other life threatening issues. So, I had to start listening to my own self and trust in God to get me through this. So, my healing is going to come from my faith.”
Morrison-Netter’s “Look In The Mirror and Fall In Love” book draws from her faith to show what is really important in life.
“We all want to look like movie stars, no one wants to get old,” Morrison-Netter said. So, there’s a lot of emphasis on the external but what’s really important is the internal. As you age and things deteriorate and decline, are you becoming the best that you were destined to be? And, if not, why not?
She added, “When I look back I go back to the manufacturer, the one who made us, what was his goal when he made us? Are we giving our full potential? Are we loving ourselves? If not what can we eliminate that’s keeping us from being our best selves and what can we add? So, I want to help people be their best and that’s part of my purpose.”
One last thing about the book Morrison-Netters want people to know about the book is that, “It’s a short read. You can read the book in an hour. It’s like a protein bar. A protein bar has a lot of nutrients but it’s in a small package. Every time you read it you may find something else you didn’t read the first time.”
Gail Morrison-Netter had a unilateral mastectomy and refers to herself as a “breast cancer survivor and thriver.” For more information on Morrison-Netter, visit her “Spa for the Spirit Life Coaching” website here. To buy “Look In The Mirror and Fall In Love,” go here.
