Despite Global Lockdown From 2020 Coronavirus Pandemic, Attacks By Islamic Jihadi Terrorists Rose Sharply About 30% More Than Those In 2019
Jihadis were more prolific during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan this year despite the Chinese coronavirus pandemic with over 242 attacks, about 30 percent more than the 187 last year.
Jihadis were more prolific during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan this year despite the Chinese coronavirus pandemic and the associated lockdowns, carrying out at least 242 attacks, about 30 percent more than the 187 last year.
Ramadan is the most sacred month of the year for Muslims — the Prophet Mohammed reportedly said, “When the month of Ramadan starts, the gates of heaven are opened and the gates of hell are closed and the devils are chained.” That’s funny, if heaven is opened and hell is closed during Ramadan, then why is there so much violence from Islamic jihadis during that time of the year? You would think for something that bills itself as the ‘religion of peace’ there would be a little more peace. Or any peace at all, but the opposite seems to be true.
“And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.” Genesis 16:12 (KJB)
Nothing slows down the ravaging of Islamic terror, not even a global coronavirus pandemic, you only thought things got quieter but that’s only because the biased, crooked mainstream fake news media stopped reporting on it. Religion of Peace? Not by a long shot. But maybe now that Pope Francis has signed a covenant with them to create the One World Religion of Chrislam, things need to appear a little quieter than usual.
Ramadan Rage: 2020 Logs 30% More Jihadist Attacks than 2019 Despite Coronavirus
FROM BREITBART NEWS: Islamic terrorists carried out an average of about eight attacks per day this year, compared to an average of six daily assaults in 2019. Three weeks into Ramadan this year, it appeared the number of deaths and injuries would exceed those from the same period last year, but the attacks became less lethal towards the end.
Jihadis killed at least 867 people and injured 813 others across 20 countries during the holy month this year. On average, jihadis killed 29 people and maimed 27 others each day during Ramadan this year.
Last year, however, the holy month was slightly bloodier, resulting in at least 911 fatalities (30 per day) and 1,006 injuries (34 per day). The 1,680 casualties this year represent a drop of over ten percent from the 1,917 last year.
Jihadis have been responsible for nearly 10,000 casualties during the past five Ramadans combined: 2020 (867 killed; 813 wounded), 2019 (911 killed; 1,006 injured), 2018 (841 killed; 1,014 wounded), 2017 (1,639 killed; 1,704 wounded), and 2016 (421 killed; 729 wounded). The Afghan Taliban remains the deadliest (423 deaths; 379 injuries) group during Ramadan this year, again followed by the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) and its affiliates (228 killed; 258 wounded).
However, ISIS was behind Ramadan’s bloodiest attack, killing 32 people and wounding 133 others during a funeral in Afghanistan on May 12. Primarily fueled by several ISIS attacks, May 12 became the bloodiest day (79 fatalities; 165 injuries) of the holy month. READ MORE

The Secret Of The LORD Shows Us His Ways, And The Faith Of Him Secures Our Standing — One Reveals God’s Eternal Purpose While The Other Guarantees That It Cannot Fail
The secret of the LORD is not some mystical code reserved for religious elites; it is the intimate counsel of God entrusted to those who fear Him, receive His words and walk in obedience to His testimonies. The proud man may possess information about God, but the surrendered servant is taught the ways of God. Psalm 25 shows the order clearly: fear produces teachability, obedience places us in the paths of mercy and truth, and fellowship with the LORD brings understanding of His covenant and purpose. God reveals His secret to servants because revealed truth carries responsibility—we are expected to believe it, obey it and proclaim it. Welcome to the Sunday Service of the Bible Believers Church at the Bookstore!
“The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.” Psalm 25:14 (KJB)
When God brings us into the revelation of His eternal purpose in Christ, we discover that our access, righteousness and security do not rest upon our own wavering faithfulness, but upon “the faith of him.” We believe in Jesus Christ, but we are justified by the faith of Jesus Christ; our believing receives the gift, while His perfect obedience and finished work provide its unshakable foundation. Our confidence may tremble, our emotions may change and our performance may fail, but Jesus Christ cannot falter or deny Himself. The secret of the LORD reveals His purpose, and the faith of Him guarantees that purpose will be accomplished: the servant may falter, but the Saviour can never fail.
The Bible Believers Sunday Service: The Secret Of The Lord
The Secret Of The Lord
“The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.” Psalm 25:14 (KJB)
“According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.” Ephesians 3:11–12 (KJB)
The LORD reveals His secret counsel to those who fear Him, receive His words and walk in obedience. But our standing, access and security before God do not rest upon the strength of our faith. They rest upon the perfect and unfailing faith of Jesus Christ. The secret reveals God’s purpose; the faith of Christ guarantees its accomplishment.
I. The Secret of the LORD Is Given to Those Who Fear Him
“The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way. All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. For thy name’s sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great. What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose. His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth. The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant. Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.” Psalm 25:9-15 (KJB)
The fear of the LORD places a man in a teachable position. God does not entrust His counsel to the proud, rebellious or self-sufficient. He teaches the person who approaches Him with reverence, humility and submission. The secret of the LORD is not occult knowledge or a hidden code. It is the privilege of understanding God’s ways, His counsel, His covenant and His purpose. Being teachable and willing to follow Him appears to be one of the LORD’s special secrets.
In the opening of Psalm 25, there are 4 requests being made in the first 7 verses.
- “Shew me” verse 4
- “Lead me” verse 5
- “teach me” verse 5
- “remember me” verse 7
Application
Before asking God to show us deeper truth, we should ask whether we are obeying the truth He has already shown us. A person who refuses God’s plain commandments should not expect illumination concerning deeper spiritual matters.
II. Obedience Places Us in the Path of Mercy and Truth
“All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.” Psalm 25:10 (KJB)
The secret is not merely something we hear; it is something we walk in. God’s paths become clearer as we obey His testimonies. Obedience does not earn divine revelation. Rather, obedience demonstrates that we are prepared to receive, value and act upon what God reveals.
Application
The serious Bible student must come to the Scriptures with more than curiosity. He must come with a surrendered heart:
- What does God say?
- What does God require?
- What must I believe?
- What must I change?
- What must I do?
III. God Reveals His Secret to His Servants
“Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.” Amos 3:7 (KJB)
“And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,” 2 Timothy 2:24 (KJB)
“Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,” Romans 1:1 (KJB)
James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ – James 1:1
Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ – 2 Peter 1:1
Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ – Jude 1:1
Before God acted in judgment, He revealed His counsel to His prophets. They were called “servants” because divine revelation always carries divine responsibility. The prophets were not given God’s secret so they could admire their own knowledge. They were commanded to proclaim what God had revealed.
Application
Whenever God gives a preacher, teacher or Bible believer understanding, that person becomes responsible for what he knows.
Truth creates accountability:
- Truth must be believed.
- Truth must be obeyed.
- Truth must be proclaimed.
- Truth must never be corrupted for personal advantage.
IV. The Secret Leads Us to God’s Eternal Purpose in Christ
“And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:” Ephesians 3:9 (KJB)
“According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:” Ephesians 3:11 (KJB)
Psalm 25 speaks in covenant language, while Ephesians 3 reveals the mystery concerning the Church, the Body of Christ. These programs must not be confused, but the spiritual principle remains: God reveals His purpose according to His own timing and to His chosen servants.
The mystery revealed through Paul was not a revised version of Israel’s prophetic program. It had been “hid in God.” It reveals the unsearchable riches of Christ and God’s eternal purpose for the Church.
Application
We must rightly divide the word of truth. Everything in the Bible is written for our learning, but not everything is written doctrinally to us.
The believer must distinguish:
- Prophecy from mystery.
- Israel from the Church.
- Covenant promises from the Body of Christ.
- The earthly kingdom from our heavenly position.
V. Our Access to God Is by the Faith of Him
“In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.” Ephesians 3:12 (KJB)
Our access does not rest upon our feelings, performance or ability to maintain perfect confidence. We have access because we are in Jesus Christ, and that access is “by the faith of him.” Our faith may be weak, but His faith cannot weaken. Our confidence may fluctuate, but His faithfulness cannot change. Our performance may fail, but His finished work remains eternally sufficient.
Application
We do not approach God by presenting our worthiness. We approach God in the worthiness of Jesus Christ. Our boldness is not self-confidence. It is Christ-confidence.
VI. The Bible Distinguishes Our Believing From the Faith of Christ
“Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.” Galatians 2:16 (KJB)
This verse contains both sides of the doctrine:
- “The faith of Jesus Christ” describes the divine basis of our justification.
- “We have believed in Jesus Christ” describes our personal reception of it.
Our believing is necessary, but our believing is not the meritorious work that purchases salvation. We believe on the One whose faith, obedience, blood and finished work are completely sufficient.
Application
The sinner is not told to have faith in his own faith. He is commanded to believe on Jesus Christ. Salvation does not depend upon how intensely a sinner can believe. It depends upon whether the object of his faith is the Lord Jesus Christ.
VII. The Faith of Christ Provides the Righteousness We Could Never Produce
“Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:” Romans 3:22 (KJB)
“And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:” Philippians 3:9 (KJB)
Salvation requires perfect righteousness. We cannot produce it, maintain it or deserve it. God therefore gives the believer His righteousness through the faith of Jesus Christ.
It is:
- Not our righteousness.
- Not the righteousness of the law.
- Not religious performance.
- Not human faithfulness.
- The righteousness of God in Jesus Christ.
Application
Stop examining yourself to determine whether you are righteous enough to remain saved. You’re not and never will be. Instead, look to Jesus Christ, in whom we have been made accepted. Our assurance rests in His righteousness, not ours.
VIII. The Faith of Christ Sustains the Believer’s Daily Life
“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20 (KJB)
The faith of Christ is not only connected with our justification; it is also the foundation of our Christian life. Paul did not say that he lived by confidence in himself. He lived by the faith of the Son of God. Christ loved us, gave Himself for us and now lives in us.
Application
Christian living is not attempting to ‘imitate Jesus’ through human determination. Imitating Jesus is what Antichrist will do! Rather, it is the life of Christ operating through a surrendered believer.
We supply the surrendered vessel; Christ supplies the life.
IX. The Two Doctrines Come Together
|
The Secret of the LORD |
The Faith of Him |
|
Reveals God’s counsel |
Accomplishes God’s purpose |
|
Is with those who fear Him |
Is found perfectly in Jesus Christ |
|
Calls the servant to obedience |
Gives the believer boldness and access |
| Shows us God’s covenant and ways |
Gives us God’s righteousness |
|
Creates responsibility |
Produces security |
| Tells us what God is doing |
Guarantees that God’s purpose cannot fail |
Combined Truth
The secret of the LORD shows us that God desires surrendered servants who fear Him, obey Him and receive His counsel. The faith of Him shows us that the fulfillment of God’s eternal purpose does not finally rest upon the servant’s strength—it rests upon Jesus Christ. We are called to be faithful, but we are secured by the One who cannot be unfaithful.
“If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.” 2 Timothy 2:13 (KJB)
Application
Ask yourself:
- Do I truly fear the LORD, or do I merely possess religious knowledge?
- Am I obeying the truth God has already shown me?
- Am I a servant whom God can trust with greater understanding?
- Am I rightly dividing prophecy from mystery?
- Am I trusting my feelings and performance, or the finished work of Christ?
- Is my confidence resting in my faith, or in the faith of Him?
- Am I using revealed truth to serve others and glorify God?
Closing Challenge
The secret of the LORD is not given so that we may become proud of what we know. It is given so that we may understand His ways, submit to His Word and faithfully serve His purpose. At the same time, we must never confuse our service with the foundation of our salvation. We fear Him, obey Him and serve Him—but our boldness, access, righteousness and security rest completely in Jesus Christ. The servant may falter, but the Saviour cannot fail. The secret is revealed to those who fear Him, and its eternal purpose is secured by the faith of Him.

The War That Donald Trump Started In Iran Is Rapidly Spinning Out Of Control As The United States Appears To Be Heading ‘Strait’ Into A Strategic Defeat
Trump Said Iran Was Obliterated And The War Was Nearly Finished, Now U.S. Allies Fear Defeat And American Generals Are Warning Of Dangerous Shortages
HOW CAN THIS BE?? How can the most powerful military machine on earth spend five months pounding Iran with bombers, cruise missiles, aircraft carriers and thousands of combat sorties, only to awaken to headlines warning that America is approaching a strategic defeat? The answer is as simple as it is devastating. President Donald Trump confused the power to destroy targets with the ability to win a war. The Pentagon can publish breathtaking numbers of Iranian installations bombed, ships destroyed and commanders eliminated, but none of that constitutes victory when the enemy government remains standing, the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively closed, American forces remain under attack and the conflict continues expanding across the Middle East. Trump promised obliteration, announced victory and assured the American people that the war was nearly finished. Iran apparently never received that memo. Today all Hell is breaking loose across the Middle East, and it appears to be unstoppable.
“Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?” Luke 14:31 (KJB)
Trump entered this war boasting of overwhelming American strength, but without any attainable endgame. Was the objective to destroy Iran’s nuclear program, eliminate its missiles, overthrow the government, reopen Hormuz, protect Israel, blockade Iranian ports or force Tehran into an unconditional surrender? No one in the Trump administration seems to know the answer to that. Washington has attempted all of it simultaneously, and has accomplished none of it decisively. The Iranian regime survived the opening bombardment, hardened its grip on the country and continued launching missiles and drones against Israel, American installations, commercial shipping and Gulf allies. Iran does not have to defeat the United States in a conventional battle. It merely has to remain standing while America bleeds money, burns through interceptors, exhausts its warships and watches the conflict spread from Iran into Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Yemen and Egypt.
Donald Trump promised us “no more endless wars” and has now put us into a war we just may end up losing. Iran is not only surviving, they are thriving, and are starting to dictate battlefield terms. pic.twitter.com/B9vnmSwNb2
— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) August 1, 2026
Today comes the astonishing report that America’s top general in Europe has warned the Pentagon that he needs another Navy destroyer to continue protecting both Israel and the United States. Without it, he may be forced to prioritize the American homeland. Think about what that means. Five months after Trump began a war he claimed would demonstrate unmatched American power, the Department of War is reportedly confronting a choice between maintaining the missile shield over Israel and preserving sufficient forces for the defense of America itself. Israel’s survival against sustained Iranian ballistic-missile attacks has become increasingly dependent upon American destroyers, American radar, American THAAD batteries and a rapidly diminishing supply of American interceptors. Every inexpensive Iranian drone that rises into the sky forces Washington to answer with weapons costing millions of dollars—and those weapons cannot be instantly replaced.
For many months now, NTEB told you this would happen, warned you it was coming, and now it’s here.
That is the trap Iran has constructed, America may control the skies, but Iran controls the clock. America can destroy another radar station, missile launcher or IRGC headquarters, but Iran can deploy another small boat, mobile launcher, drone swarm or naval mine and keep the Strait of Hormuz too dangerous for normal commercial traffic. Tehran does not need to sink the United States Navy; it only needs to frighten insurance companies and shipping corporations. It does not need to invade Israel; it only needs to force America to expend a finite supply of interceptors protecting it. It does not need to win spectacularly; it only needs to make the war longer, wider and more expensive than Washington can politically, economically or militarily sustain. And speaking of traps, are you aware that Iran is right now targeting 7 US states in cyberattacks on our water systems? Iran has spent 47 years planning for this war, Trump looks like he hasn’t spent 47 minutes preparing America for this confrontation.
Iran is not ‘decimated’, they are taunting Trump with these missile systems
Iran’s Kheibar Shekan is a medium-range ballistic missile that can fly 900 miles, meaning it can threaten the entire Middle East—and beyond. The Kheibar Shekan has become the workhorse of Iran’s missile arsenal during the war with the United States. Now, U.S. officials say Iran’s attacks are growing more and more complex, and that’s making the missile even more dangerous for American troops.
This is how a superpower wins battle after battle and still loses the war. Trump’s military can bomb Iran into rubble, but it cannot bomb into existence a coherent strategy that was missing from the beginning. The Iranian government remains in power, Hormuz remains paralyzed, and Iran’s proxies remain active. China is helping Tehran rebuild its defenses. American servicemen have been killed and wounded. Gulf oil infrastructure is under attack, commercial vessels are being struck, American citizens are being warned to leave the region, and U.S. allies are openly questioning whether Washington has either the resources or the leadership necessary to bring this disaster to an acceptable conclusion. Yikes.
Donald Trump is failing in Iran, and he is failing according to the standard established by his own promises. He said Iran had been obliterated; Iran is still fighting. He said the war was nearly over; it is expanding. He said Hormuz would reopen; it remains effectively closed. He promised strength; his generals are warning of scarcity. He promised victory; America’s allies now fear strategic defeat. This war was sold as a dazzling display of American supremacy, but it has become a grinding demonstration of American vulnerability. Trump expected shock and awe to bring Iran to its knees. Instead, Iran discovered that it does not have to defeat America—it only has to survive America. The president who promised to ‘end endless wars’ is now trapped inside one of his own making, and every fresh bombing raid is becoming further evidence that the previous bombing raids failed.
Even Fox News is forced to admit now that Trump has caused a massive depletion in US missile supplies, and it is changing the course of the war with Iran. https://t.co/jeC39Lls0v

As Spain Watches While An All-Male Horde Of Foreign Muslim Invaders Violates Its Sovereign Borders, The World Lurches Forward Toward All-Out Global War
The Invasion Of Spain By Muslim Migrants Reveals How Quickly National Sovereignty Can Collapse As The Entire World Moves Toward Permanent Emergency Government
Look around you, the world is not merely experiencing a collection of unrelated crises, it is literally convulsing. The war with Iran is spreading across the Middle East, threatening the Strait of Hormuz, striking American interests and pulling nations like Jordan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and China closer to the battlefield. In Europe, Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine is pressing against the borders of NATO, with missiles falling dangerously close to the tripwire that could ignite direct conflict between Russia and the West. Now Spain has watched its sovereign border buckle beneath a reported human wave of tens of thousands of Muslims pouring into Ceuta, followed by another coordinated assault against Melilla. The Middle East is burning, Eastern Europe is exploding, and Western Europe is discovering that an invasion does not always arrive behind tanks—it can come through an abandoned border while a paralyzed government stands helplessly watching.
“And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.” Matthew 24:6–8 (KJB)
Jesus Christ warned that the closing days would be characterized by “wars and rumours of wars,” with nation rising against nation and kingdom against kingdom. That is precisely the atmosphere now gathering over this sin-cursed world. These wars are no longer contained within neat geographical boundaries. Iran strikes across the Middle East, Russia threatens the security architecture of Europe, China arms Tehran while watching Taiwan, and great movements of desperate people are being weaponized against weakened Western nations. Every border is becoming a pressure point, every military alliance a potential tripwire, and every regional conflict a possible doorway into something much larger. The world constructed after the Second World War is coming apart before our eyes, and the demons of nationalism, religious hatred, conquest and empire are coming roaring back from the grave.
Matthew 24 is doctrinally aimed at the Jewish people during the time of Jacob’s trouble, but the shadow of that coming period is already stretching across the nations. In fact, it is our position that verses 3-8 can, and do, refer to the end of ther Church Age time period. We are not yet standing in the Great Tribulation, and will be raptured out before it starts, but we are watching the scaffolding being erected for it. The military alliances are forming, the ancient enemies are awakening, national borders are disintegrating, economic systems are straining, and frightened populations are being conditioned to accept emergency rule as a permanent way of life. The coming Antichrist will not rise in a peaceful and prosperous world. He will step forward from the wreckage of a world exhausted by war, overwhelmed by migration, terrified by economic collapse and begging someone—anyone—to restore order.
That is the real prophetic significance of what is happening. Iran, Ukraine and Spain are different flashpoints, but they are all producing the same result: confusion, fear, destabilization and a growing demand for international control. Satan is preparing the sickness before presenting his counterfeit cure. First comes the chaos; then comes the man promising peace. First the nations are shaken; then the world reaches for a ruler powerful enough to control them. First comes the cry for safety; then comes the covenant that will begin Daniel’s seventieth week and lead straight into the time of Jacob’s trouble.
The world is not falling apart randomly, it is falling into prophetic alignment. The actors are taking their places, the ancient nations are moving, and the machinery of global war is grinding into motion. The Church is waiting for the Pretribulation Rapture, Israel is being prepared for the furnace, and the nations are being gathered toward judgment. The headlines are no longer whispering; they are shouting. Iran is burning, Russia is advancing, Europe’s borders are breaking, and the words of Jesus Christ are casting their unmistakable shadow over the entire world.

- HOW TO DONATE: Click here to view our WayGiver Funding page
When you contribute to this fundraising effort, you are helping us to do what the Lord called us to do. The money you send in goes primarily to the overall daily operations of this site. When people ask for Bibles, we send them out at no charge. When people write in and say how much they would like gospel tracts but cannot afford them, we send them a box at no cost to them for either the tracts or the shipping, no matter where they are in the world. We have a Gospel Billboard program. We are now broadcasting Bible studies, Podcasts and a Sunday Service 5 times a week, thanks to your generous donations. All this is possible because YOU pray for us, YOU support us, and YOU give so we can continue growing.
But whatever you do, don’t do nothing. Time is short and we need your help right now. The Lord has given us an open door with a tremendous ‘course’ for us to fulfill that will create an excellent experience at the Judgement Seat of Christ. Please pray for our efforts, and if the Lord leads you to donate, be as generous as possible. The war is REAL, the battle HOT and the time is SHORT…TO THE FIGHT!!!
“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;” Titus 2:13 (KJB)
