I find it incredible that a politician campaigning for re-election who happens to be a Christian can be imprisoned in the name of any religion by simply stating a view that is contrary to what others, the majority, believe. When Basuki “Ahok” Tjahaja Purnama, the current governor of Jakarta, quoted a verse from the Quran to prove to his supporters that there were no restrictions on Muslims voting for a non-Muslim politician, he was accused of blasphemy. Why hadn’t the Muslim antagonists brought the passage up when he was elected the first time, in 2012? (Quran 5:51 was the apparent verse which states, “O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you – then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the wrongdoing people.”)?
Ahok was tried by an Islamic court, and sentenced to two years in jail.

According to reports, the reason why Ahok was charged in the first place was the marauding gangs of Muslim protestors who demanded the action, and frightened officials acted for self-preservation rather than justice. Do you wonder if Ahok will survive his two-year prison term? I doubt it. The evil of Islam will find its way to sever his head — mark my words, he will not get out of prison alive.
Pray for Basuki “Ahok” Tjahaja Purnama, reigning governor of Jakarta to survive the horrors of Islamic “peace” gone amok.
Jesus come quickly.
Blessings.
