Kenji Goto's Jesus Tweets Go Viral After His Execution At The Hands Of ISIS by winner01(m): 11:36pm On Sep 18, 2015
Christian journalist Kenji Goto, one of the two Japanese hostages who was recently beheaded by the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) continues to inspire multitudes with his faith in God, as his previous tweets (@kenjigotoip) have gone viral.

Goto's earlier tweets were eerily indicative of his future torture at the hands of ISIS.
"Closing my eyes and holding still. It's the end if I get mad or scream. It's close to a prayer. Hate is not for humans. Judgment lies with God. That's what I learned from my Arabic brothers and sisters, "he tweeted on September 7 ,2010.

His selfless tweet reflects the Savior's appeal to God on the cross to forgive those who are killing him. "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do, "Jesus said in Luke 23:34.

Goto's Twitter page is mainly filled with Japanese characters, but there were some tweets back in 2010 in which he thanked God that miners were rescued in Chile, and also expressed his desire to "make a new world."
Goto became a Christian in 1997 and was a member of the Denenchofu Church of the United Church of Christ in Japan.

He was kidnapped by ISIS in October 2014 after entering the nation of Syria by way of Turkey. He went back to Syria hoping to rescue his friend Haruna Yukawa, who was kidnapped by ISIS last August 2014.
He was the first Japanese man publicly beheaded by the radical Islamic group.
In a leaked photo, it was shown that they forced Goto to hold a picture of Yukawa's severed head on January 24.

"I have seen horrible places and have risked my life, but I know that somehow God will always save me, "said Goto.

Seems like God forgot to save him this time around? If he didn't forget then he let the terrorist kill him. If he let the terrorist kill the man while being omnipotent, Omniscience and all knowing that means God himself killed this man. RIP

You would think god would at least have the decency to rescue his own to send a strong message across the globe that there is indeed a god out there. But no,he just sat his fat ass on his throne getting the Most High whilst Goto's head was savagely severed and the video broadcast around the world. Far be it from me to find joy in such savagery but how does this prove there is a god out there? Or if this a contest between two rival gods are we inclined to agree that the Islamic god is the superior of the two? Hmmm..

@Cold.
What you don't know is bigger than you. To you death is the end, to us believers, death is the beginning. God actually takes pleasure when his children return home.
See what the bible says in Psalm 116:15 PRECIOUS in the sight of the Lord is the Death of His Saints.
See how u put urself in trouble?
A saint has gone home.
I hope wen its time for you to join him, it will also be precious in God's sight?

You probably mean Jesus. The dude who rolled a stone to get out a tomb, then walked through a closed door to see his disciples?

I pity those of you who are atheists, You lack understanding of God. You are blinded by pride, since the beginning of time no one has had more fame than Jesus. For over 2000 years his name has grown stronger and powerful. Why not pause your pride and look closely at the word of Jesus, examine his lifestyle and try to understand how the son of a carpenter who died without owning a single thing on earth is the most powerful man today.

Think and read books don't wallow in pride and foolishness, the truth remains the truth whether you like it or not.

The prime work of the enemy is to mislead people, to sow seeds of doubt into believers, anything to miss heaven. And in the world we've found ourselves in, a world that is continuously rebelling against the good, a world where bad has been modified to be good. We cant let down our guards. Did you think the devil will come in person, or did you think the internet is a restricted area for the devil? undecided. Dont make the mistake of thinking that agents of darkness remain in the underworld. They are everywhere. To mislead people. Check islams section, you wont find them there, a kingdom is not divided against itself. Darkness is against light.
