Featured So what SHOULD the CHRISTIAN response be to taking in 10,000 Syrian Refugees?

We open our homes and churches to them. We help clothe and feed them. We provide them jobs. We help them get education.

We become hospitable. Hebrews 13:2-4

 

Amen...bless you.

 

Amen and AMEN.

 

If these people would assimilate to the American Way then accepting "some" of them would be fine? All of them? No. These folks want to conquer us. The best thing a Christian could possibly do is uphold Christ as the Only God. Not some homemade allah.

A 19 year old girl has been arrested for 1st Degree Murder for throwing her new born out of a 10 story building because she was afraid of what her parents would "think". Her family is from the Middle East.

 

Zack..., you can play word games till next Thursday but one thing for sure..., you can't snuggle up close to a rattlesnake without getting bit. Nor can you expect any "breaks" from your enemy.

Our Lord certainly did not intend for His Children to be wimps or cowards nor does He expect us to run from opposition.

The Muslim's have been at war with Christians for over 1400 years and they are still enemies of the Father of Abraham, Issac and Jacob.

As far as I'm concerned those that are here in this Country who refuse to assimilate need to be sent home. We also need to close up ALL of those 28 Muslim Compounds currently training their followers for Jihad here in America. There is absolutely NO room for them and they need to go.

Short of this is foolishness.

 

HAMel, there's only one problem with your analogy: You must assume that ALL muslims are rattlesnakes.

And that's where it fails.

Not all muslims agree on islamic doctrine, just as not all Baptists agree on doctrine; not all catholics agree on doctrine; not all mormons agree on doctrine; etc., etc.

If the analogy logic is true, then why aren't ALL Christians catholic, or mormon, or baptist?

If the analogy holds true, then we're in a position where we need to consider swallowing our pride and say, "yes, Westboro Baptist Church DOES represent me and my Christian beliefs."

 

@Don, you are exactly right. ALL of them to me are rattlesnakes until proven otherwise. The "analogy" that sticks is they ALL pray to the East five times a day; ALL of their women are completely covered except for their eyes or face retribution; They ALL stand accused of being guilty should they be sexually assaulted; ALL of the men consider themselves as being above women in every day life. They "refuse" to be treated by a woman doctor even here in this country.

I am certainly not willing to abuse ANY of them should they need food, water, medical treatment, housing, etc..., while being shipped home. America is not for anyone who refuses to assimilate.

Now, let me ask you this. How did our American Forces determine a North Korean from a South Korean during that conflict? What about Vietnam? How could you tell? Until proven otherwise any of them were capable of slitting your throat and not think one second about it.

These folks are our enemies until they prove otherwise and no, I don't apologize for my position here. In a news report the other night several thousand came charging over the border (over there) and completely consumed this little town. One woman was telling of them just coming right through their doors and into their homes taking whatever they wanted. It was total chaos. She was terrified. ...what if they had had weapons?

Diversification will destroy any nation just as we have been witnessing here in this country.

 

How long has your home been open to them, and how many are currently there?

 

Who started the first crusade?
Who became synonymous with Rome when Rome was still stomping on any opposition around the Med?
Who did not preach Christ to the tribes that first became Muslim. Indeed who made fun of them as having no God prior to Mohammad being born?

There is no innocence on either side historically speaking.

What do you mean by assimilate? We have many regions in our country and those regions have distinct cultures. Which culture do you want them to assimilate into?

How did Christ say we are to treat our enemies?

By the way, calling people by names such as rattlesnake is the third step in the path to genocide and is wildly defined as hate speech. Be careful, that is treading on very thin ice.

 

There is a reason Jesus said: But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

Of course he also said: And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.

Pray hard enough that last one and the other will take care of itself.
