Daphne police have arrested an Evangelist minister for arson.

A fire alarm went off about 10:00 p.m. Tuesday at the Loma Alta Towers. A trash can in the basement of the building was on fire.

Police Chief David Carpenter tells News 5 that Dr. Anis Shorrosh used an accelerant to set the trash can on fire. Police believe he did it in an attempt to burn the building down.

Shorrosh says he is from Nazareth, the hometown of Jesus Christ. He also claims to have preached the gospel in at least 76 countries.

Shorrosh has made himself a target of fanatic Muslims by by questioning the Qur’an. According to a website called Islam-In-Focus, Shorrosh has survived three assassination attempts by fanatic Muslims.

Dr. Anis Shorrosh in his med 70’s most likely had a medically induced episode and will recover his facitlies soon.
God bless the work of Dr. Anis Shorrosh and he is for one thing not a liar. I have spoken to Dr. Anis on several occasions and have found him to be an uplifting happy man. His friends and family are standing by the man. God Bless you Dr. Anis

Warm Regards,

Mobilelistener: I agree with you, this is not about religion. Sorry. You were right on two points I am bald and over forty. The rest, you are way off, although, sometimes I wish it was true.
Rosepetal, come on! What are you smoking? Please read what you wrote and see if it makes any sense to you. Kidding aside, please be honest and answer this question: where did you get this information you put in your comment? Does the bible say this is what it means or is it some preacher who was trying to find evidence for claims that don’t exist in the Bible? It amazes me that people believe that God communicated with us in order to tell us about himself and to tell us how to live our lives, but when he did, he did it in the most ambiguous way that no one can understand except clergy and preachers so they can interpret it any way they want and keep people under their control. This is my last post. My final words are: check things out for your self. USE YOUR MIND. Finaly: Anis is a LIAR.

samiam go back and read the bible the whole old testament is a presentation to the need and coming of Jesus what do you think the meaning of passover is really about lambs blood over the door death passover and as for the sacrafice he who knew no sin became sin he gave his life as an offering for sin only Jesus could do this lol samiam yes sacrifice his life for me no one can live by the law and i mean no one the pharisees were perfect in worship yet they could not earn their way no one will ever earn their way into heaven Jesus is the only way His gift satan thought he had won the battle the son of God was dead but what he didnt know and oh how smart our God is is that at that very moment he satan had lost because Jesus had won he came and took on the sin of the world and arose for our justification it was settled forever

Wow, stop talking about religion, this is not about religion, this is about Anis. And by the way most of you sound really uneducated, you can say whatever you want but when it comes down to it, most of you are 40, unmarried, bald and living with your parents. (Please don’t give a description about yourself, no one believes you.)

How could I believe something that Jesus himself never claimed? Not only that, but it is contrary to what he and all prophets before him preached. As a Muslim, I believe, as Jesus said, that God is one, that he is unseen, and that he is supreme. Jesus preached that it is how you live your life and how you humble yourself before God is what counts. In addition, don’t you think that the short statement you made has at least half a dozen contradictions?  God vs. Flesh; Jesus was God vs. gave his life. Do you understand the meaning of sacrifice? When you sacrifice something, it is gone. If you claim he gave his life (sacrificed) then he wouldn’t rise again. If he arose again, then he didn’t sacrifice. Above all, if he were God, nothing really bad happened to him. It was all a show. Of course, Jesus never claimed any of this. He said that “your lord who is in heaven ...” and he said “Your lord is one ...” That is my Jesus, my beloved Jesus.

samiam do you believe Jesus was God in the flesh do you believe that Jesus gave His life for your sin and that He arose for your justification as for jimmy swaggart do you not think as many people he was leading to Jesus that satan would not come after him in such a way remember david and solomn turned from God for a woman oh i always go by the word i know in this day and time you better be prayed and fasted up but i am glad no one was hurt and i know the police will find out all the facts

I have gone to church numerous times and I have several copies of the Bible. As a Muslim, I love Jesus (Isa) peace be upon him. I would not be a Muslim if I didn’t. The point of discussion wasn’t about your religion or mine, although that would be very interesting to discuss in a friendly and scholastic way. The point was that whatever Mr. Shorrosh claimed about Islam was LIES. That is why I am asking everyone to verify for themselves and not to follow blindly. Again, I am not making a point here that Islam is the right religion. My point is, no one should manufacture stories about other people or religions just because they dislike them or disagree with them. We always have to tell the truth. But it is interesting that those who attack Islam, falsely, some how end up disgraced publically. I don’t know why Jimmy Swaggart’s name came to my mind.

samiam you can not debate the bible the word speaks you either hear or you turn a deaf ear mr shorrosh is in alot of trouble but its nothing compared to what people will be in when it comes time to find out the real truth i would suggest you go to a church and get a free copy of the bible and pray for the truth debate with the one who really knows the answers before the question is asked and answers in your heart
