Kenyan father persecuted for obeying Genesis 22
 
"Take your son, your only son – yes, Isaac, whom you love so much – and go to the land of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains, which I will point out to you." -Genesis 22:1-10 (KJV)

"...Jephthah made a vow to the LORD. He said, "If you give me victory over the Ammonites, I will give to the LORD the first thing coming out of my house to greet me when I return in triumph. I will sacrifice it as a burnt offering."

"So Jephthah led his army against the Ammonites, and the LORD gave him victory....When Jephthah returned home to Mizpah, his daughter – his only child – ran out to meet him, playing on a tambourine and dancing for joy...

...her father kept his vow, and she died a virgin.

-Judges 11:29-39

God tests us in His own mysterious ways, according to his Divine Plan. But in the homeland of the Kenyan Empire, Christians are persecuted for obeying Him.

KITALE, Kenya, May 19 (Xinhua) -- Kenyan police are holding a man who killed his only son and offered him as a sacrifice after claiming he had spoken to God who instructed him to do so.

The man, a staunch follower of Ingrafted Fellowship Church butchered his five-year old son at Sikhendu village in Western Kenya and surrendered to the police to avoid the wrath of the public, local police chief Karisa Mwaringa said on Wednesday.

The suspect claimed God has spoken to him before he picked a machete, held a short prayer and slaughtered the boy like a chicken and sprinkled the blood round his house. "God spoke to me and asked me to give him something that I love most and because I love my son I decided to offer him as a sacrifice," the man told the police.

America is the newest province of the Kenyan Empire. I have heard that Obama's dictatorship has gotten so bad husbands are being arrested for "raping" their wives. Now how is it possible to rape a wife? That's like stealing your own car, or picking your own pocket!

Still, the father was unable to complete the offering by burning, thus depriving God of the pleasing odor unto His nostrils.

I could see some sanction being made against the father for not doing the sacrifice correctly and/or completely.


Perhaps that is what the crowd was inflamed about ??

Please tell me it was the one true God that he was talking about.
