No one is actually calling it this way, but by the wave of recent suicide bombings in Turkey,
France, and today in Belgium, the infamous Islamic terror group known as ISIS, ISIL, or DAESH effectively declared war on Europe, thus spilling the violence from Middle East to the Western world.
It is clear that the politically correct approach to the problem of Islamic violence is not working. It would be wrong to go from this into another extreme of penalizing all Muslim people for this like the American Presidential hopeful, Donald Trump, suggested when he stated that he would "ban all the Muslims from entering America," but it is clear that the authorities need to be more vigilant and the hateful ideology that is feeding this violence must be confronted, otherwise these attacks will increase in frequency and severity.
These people clearly are attacking the Western way of life and want us all to live in fear. America and Canada are not immune to this either. Both Barack Obama and Justin Trudeau need to step up the security, or North America will sooner or later suffer the same problems as Europe now does. ISIS is losing in Middle East and will try to appear stronger than it really is by attempting more attacks around the world.
As Christians, we need to in turn step up our prayers for the Muslim people. We need to pray that God would reveal the Truth to them and set them free from satanic ideas that cause them to commit these murderous acts, even if it is just one minute of your time everyday, make sure that you pray. It is an ever intensifying spiritual war that manifests itself in physical violence. Satan knows that he doesn't have much time left, so he causes unstable and desperate people to wreak havoc around the world. Pray also for wisdom for our political leaders, so that their actions or the lack of it would not make the problem worse.
