It is unfortunate that Al Qaeda affiliates in Syria and Iraq has achieved great strides pushing forth an imperalistic Islam upon other Muslims and Christians. Its also unfortunate that many in the West don’t understand much of these two organizations, Al Nusra and Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or better known as ISIS). Apparently these two organizations aren’t getting along.
Here are two documentaries from earlier this year that gives a bit of perspective of Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.
The first is an incredible documentary by Vice who embedded with Al Nusra.
The second is the perspective of some who have quit the Free Syria Army and their encounter with ISIS.
It is frightening. We need to be praying.

Thank you for posting this. We need to become more informed regarding these groups & what’s happening.
I agree; the first video even embedded with Al Nusra; I imagine it was at great risk to let us know about them. We need to understand these groups taking over portions of the Middle East

Thank you also for re-blogging these!
😄 glad to do it brother!
So wonderful to know the Lord is in control! May we all be in prayer for the entire situation and the souls that are involved.
At times like these the doctrine of God’s Sovereignty is the only comfort!

Thank you for re-blogging this brother!
Thanks for this SJ. These groups can do a pit of damage and cause much misery but are merely pawns in the hand of God. Sin is such a hideous thing. It seems these people even have little common grace.
Yes it seems like they are given over…I would say its demonic as well
I would think so too.
