THE APOSTATE CHURCH PROPHESIED PRIOR TO JESUS SECOND COMING

The Archbishop of Canterbury presented Hafiz Ashrafi with an award for Reconciliation and Interfaith Cooperation. It’s a special award for people who do outstanding work building bridges between people of different faiths. Ashrafi is the chairman of the Pakistan Ulema Council — a group of high-ranking Islamic scholars.

Why would the Church of England give one of Pakistan’s most eminent Islamic scholars such an award? Was it because in 2007, as reported in The Guardian, he…

“ … had decided to honour Osama bin Laden. He is to be given the title of Saifullah, or Sword of God.”

Or perhaps Ashrafi was given the reconciliation award because in 2013 he was reported as saying that…

“ … suicide attacks in Afghanistan are lawful because NATO troops are invaders that have occupied the country.”

Ashrafi later said he had been taken out of context, claiming that suicide bombings were un-Islamic but that he could understand why Afghans were fighting back. Or maybe Ashrafi was given the award for interfaith reconciliation out of deep appreciation for his support, in 2014…

“… of Islamic blasphemy laws that condemn people to death if they insult Muhammad or disrespect the Koran.”

Afterall, nothing says I’m a leader when it comes to co-operating with other faiths than… if you disrespect us, you’ll be put to death.

The good news is that the Archbishop of Canterbury has withdrawn the award. Hafiz Muhammad Tahir Mehmood Ashrafi received the award for reconciliation and interfaith cooperation from Dame Sarah Mullally last week, on the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

Lambeth Palace faced a backlash after it emerged Ashrafi praised Bin Laden – the architect of the 2001 attacks – as someone who had “been fighting for Islam against the Russians, Americans and British”, in comments from 2007. Ashrafi also reportedly said he would give Bin Laden the title Saifullah, which means “Sword of God”. He told the BBC his remarks had been “totally taken out of context”.

Lambeth Palace now says “comments made by Imam Ashrafi have come to light that have led (us) to reconsider this award and we can now confirm that the award has been withdrawn”.

Is it any wonder why the Global Anglicans (GAFCON) have formally resolved to withdraw from the Anglican Communion.

BIBLICAL END TIMES APOSTATE CHURCH

The appointment of Dame Sarah Mullally as the first female archbishop of Canterbury has drawn sharp criticism from Gafcon, a global Anglican movement, which accused the Church of England of abandoning biblical teaching by choosing a leader who has affirmed blessings for same-sex relationships.

Gafcon leaders said Mullally’s support for introducing prayers of blessing for same-sex marriages and her 2023 comment that some same-sex relationships could be blessed showed she had failed to uphold her consecration vows. They warned that her elevation would deepen divisions in the 85 million-member Anglican Communion and render Canterbury unable to serve as a focus of unity.

“When she was consecrated in 2015, she took an oath to ‘banish and drive away all strange and erroneous doctrine contrary to God’s Word,’” he said. “And yet, far from banishing such doctrine, Bishop Mullally has repeatedly promoted unbiblical and revisionist teachings regarding marriage and sexual morality.”

“For over a century and a half, the Archbishop of Canterbury functioned not only as the Primate of All England but also as a spiritual and moral leader of the Anglican Communion,” Rev. Laurent Mbanda, chairman of the Gafcon Primates Council, said. “In more recent times, the See of Canterbury has been described as one of the four ‘instruments of Communion,’ whilst also chairing the other three Instruments, namely the Lambeth Conference, the Primates Meeting and the Anglican Consultative Council.” “However, due to the failure of successive Archbishops of Canterbury to guard the faith, the office can no longer function as a credible leader of Anglicans, let alone a focus of unity,” he continued. “As we made clear in our Kigali Commitment of 2023, we can ‘no longer recognize the Archbishop of Canterbury as an Instrument of Communion’ or the ‘first among equals’ of global Primates.”
