Luke Juaregui, Párroco Rev. Luke Juaregui, Pastor The world situation is an uneasy one with the rise of Islamic fascism growing in ferocity and achieving victory against the societies of democracy. Radicals, who push for violence on civilians, are relentless in their pursuit for eventual world domination. We had hope for an Arab spring; however, it seems that in actuality those nations in revolution are slipping into the old ways of Sharia law. ISIS is carving out vast territories in order to implement their view of life at the expense of others. The interesting aspect of Islamic fascism is that they know that a direct battle would be useless against the greater democratic military might, so they seek to destroy democracy in a more subtle way by using tactics of fear, deception, and political fraction. And currently that is where we stand with our military might holding back and only giving air support and a small amount of supplies. This issue is that the west is not united but rather fractured. The Islamic fascist’s tactic is not to win by right ideas but to manipulate the good will of free peoples into submission. Once free peoples are broken, they are enslaved with terrible brutality. We can now see this coming to reality in the territories which ISIS now controls: theft, slavery, execution, and decapitation. In the same way, evil attempts to manipulate us into submitting our lives over to the consumption of Sin because direct confrontation with the Lord would be useless. Evil’s tactic of terrorism attempts to cause fear in us, which will ultimately push us away from God. For example, the sin of mistake becomes a source of great guilt for many, and causes us to fear the judgment of God. Some feelings of guilt are good for motivating us to improve; however, guilty feelings, which result in a fear of sin, cause us to reside in an evil state. If one is focused on sin and the fear of judgment then God is not your focus. On the other hand, the opposite can happen where we are deceived in thinking that there should be no guilt caused by the sins we do; or we think we have no sin. This causes us to lose our humility and honesty resulting in a worship of ourselves instead of the Father. The third terrorist tactic of evil is to cause a fractioning of our Christian unity. This is the most diabolical of evil’s techniques for when people of good intentions disagree in excess about non-essential matters of worship, faith, and doctrine then the focus is on something that may be important but not essential to fight over, or to hold grudges, resulting in no compromise. This is a fractioning of the body of Christ, which results in the doubt of God’s dependable Love and secretly destroys faith. As a people of faith, waiting for the return of the Son of Man, let us look for the signs of the times supporting each other in unity against the true enemy of evil. We need to commit ourselves to the way of Christ’s freedom by fearing no evil, maintaining our eyes on the reality of truth, and gathering each other into the body of Christ. Evil only divides and destroys; it is by our life through which we decide to embrace the way of Evil’s destruction in honoring our own mastery or we honor the way of Christ’s humble, glorious gathering. St. Rose of Lima Church La situación mundial se encuentra desestabilizada por el ascenso del fascismo Islámico que se vuelve cada vez más feroz y logra victorias contra las sociedades democráticas. Los radicales, que apoyan el uso de violencia contra los civiles, son implacables en su búsqueda del dominio mundial. La Primavera Árabe nos dio esperanza, sin embargo en la actualidad parece ser que aquellas naciones en revolución ahora se deslizan hacia las antiguas costumbres de la Sharía (ley) Islámica. El Estado Islámico/EI (ISIS por sus siglas en inglés) está conquistando grandes territorios para imponer su manera de vivir a expensas de los demás. Lo interesante del fascismo Islámico es que ellos saben que perderían si se enfrentan a una batalla directa contra los poderes democráticos, así que buscan destruir la democracia de maneras más sutiles usando las tácticas de terror, engaño y fracciones políticas. Eh ahí en donde nos encontramos actualmente; frenando nuestro poder militar para solo brindar apoyo aéreo lanzando una modesta cantidad de armas y provisiones. La cuestión es que los países occidentales no están unidos sino divididos. La táctica de los fascistas Islámicos no es de ganar imponiendo sus ideas, sino de manipular las buenas intenciones de los países libres para que estos se sometan a lo que ellos desean. Cuando un pueblo libre se divide, se puede esclavizar por medio de la brutalidad y terror. Podemos ver como esto se convierte en realidad en los territorios controlados por el EI: hay robo, esclavitud, ejecuciones y decapitaciones. De la misma manera, la maldad intenta manipularnos para que sometamos nuestras vidas al pecado, ya que sería inútil que la maldad se enfrentara directamente al Señor. El mal emplea una táctica de terrorismo para incitar el miedo en nosotros, cosa que a fin de cuentas nos aleja de Dios. Por ejemplo, el equivocarse y pecar puede ser una gran fuente de culpa para muchos, y hace que teman el juicio de Dios. Ciertos sentimientos de culpa son buenos en el sentido que nos motivan a mejorarnos, pero vivir con culpa resulta en un temor al pecado, y nos mantiene viviendo en un estado de maldad. Si estamos enfocados en el pecado y en el temor a ser juzgado, no podemos estar enfocados en Dios. Por otra parte, sucede lo opuesto cuando nos engañamos pensando que no debemos sentirnos culpables por los pecados que cometemos, o que no tenemos la mancha de pecado. Esto hace que perdamos nuestra humildad y honestidad y nos adoremos a nosotros mismos en lugar de adorar al Señor. La otra táctica terrorista del mal es causar una división en nuestra unidad Cristiana. Esta es la más diabólica de todas las tácticas del mal ya que cuando las personas de buenas intenciones discuten en exceso sobre asuntos menores de adoración, fe y doctrina, se enfocan en cosas que, aunque importantes, no son esenciales. No vale la pena discutir acerca de estos temas o guardar rencores y esto impide llegar a un acuerdo. Esto es una división del cuerpo de Cristo, que siembra duda acerca del Amor fiel de Dios y va destruyendo secretamente la fe.
