POPE KISSES THE ISLAMIC KORAN
November 4, 1999 (David W. Cloud, Fundamental Baptist Information Service, P.O. Box 610368, Port Huron, MI 48061-0368, fbns@wayoflife.org) - In May 1999, during an audience granted to three Muslims at the Vatican, Pope John Paul II bowed to the Muslim holy book, the Koran, and kissed it (Christian News, Oct. 18, 1999, p. 16). The three Muslims were the Shiite Imam of Khadum mosque, the Sunni president of the Iraqi Islamic Bank, and a representative of the Iraqi ministry of religion. The photo of the gesture has been shown repeatedly on Iraqi television. The Pope is diligently building the end time apostate "church" of Revelation 17. A mere six months later, Indonesian Muslims demonstrated their reply to the Popes gesture by slaughtering Roman Catholics in East Timor who had voted their independence from Indonesia. |
