Open Letter to those in Baghdad, Iraq who captured by force five British subjects at the Foreign Ministry in Baghdad last November:

Sirs, I am sure that you are men and that you are men who respect and fear THE NAME of THE ONE TRUE and ONLY GOD. I am writing to you today after learning of this situation from a BBC televised appeal of Lord Carey who was the previous Archbishop of Canterbury, the Church of England.

 Sirs, you do yourselves and the name of Islam or Arabic people, NO service when you kidnap those who were there in your country trying to help you. Sirs, I have also endured much suffering in my life in the past couple of years and that kind of suffering brings with it a compassion and a heart for people that becomes a testimony of the Power of GOD to turn evil to good.  I am sympathetic to the cause of the people in any nation where liberty is absent or there are unjust rulers. I am also sympathetic to the cause of the Palestinian AND the Jewish people in the fight that is ongoing, that began about 6000 years ago and will continue to the battle of Armageddon as foretold by The BOOK--THE HOLY BIBLE in Revelation. I think both the Israeli people and the Palestinian people should have a homeland and I also think that they should get along IF they serve THE ONLY ONE LIVING GOD as they say they do.  However, there are rules of civility and rules of war*. From studying The King James Holy Bible I have found no occasion when GOD told HIS warriors to kidnap innocent people to make them as pawns in a battle. If you publicly portray your faith as one that recognizes no authority but your own, and no rules but your own, you create a pathway for yourself to destruction. **

It is important that you know that true Christians and I define that as those who believe in The MESSIAH whom Christians know as JESUS, that those who speak other languages may know by some other NAME, are not violent and do not destroy innocent human life, because one of the Commandments of GOD as GOD wrote it in stone, is "thou shalt not kill".

* And I am making an effort to put the words about war from the Holy Bible, on the web for all to study and you  may read those at: http://the-good-fight-of-faith.info.

And the promises of GOD to HIS people [ and certainly that includes the human races: Jews and Arabs that were descendants of Abraham the patriarch] on the web at http://promises-of-GOD.info.

**I ask you to read the Holy Scriptures at these websites of mine for more about GOD's plan for humans:
