Pastors advocating the blending Christianity and Islam...

[Alive in Christ]

They apparently want it to become the religion of... "ChrisLam"

I kid you not....

This weekend, the Memorial Drive Presbyterian Church in Houston along with Christian communities in Atlanta, Seattle, and Detroit will initiate a series of sermons that have been designed to produce an ecumenical reconciliation between Christianity and Islam.

In addition to the sermons, the Sunday school lessons will center on the inspired teachings of the Prophet Mohammad.

Qurans will be placed in the pews next to the Bibles.

The concept of Chrislam, now embraced by such preachers as Rick Warren and Robert Schuller, appears to have emerged from a program on the meaning of “love your neighbor” at Grace Fellowship Church in Atlanta, Georgia, “In 2001, like most Americans, we were pretty awakened to the true Islamic presence in the world and in the United States,” says Jon Stallsmith, the outreach minister at Grace Fellowship. “Jesus says we should love our neighbors. We can’t do that without having a relationship with them.”

Stallsmith maintains that a rapprochement between Muslims and Christians can be achieved by the fact that Jesus is mentioned twenty-five times in the Quran.

This is outright heresy!

what CANNOT appease a religion that has it roots/origins in "satanic" revelations!

As Apostle paul said, what does Jesus have in common with Baal?
The Lord with satan?

The Catholic church is advocating this thing and they are in fact the authors of Islam. They both worship fatima. I don't know why anyone would be surprized over it. We are living in the last days.

Another snipitt from the article...

Jesus in the Quran is neither the only-begotten Son of God nor the Messiah who was divinely appointed to restore the House of David. He is rather viewed as a prophet who was appointed by Allah to prepare mankind for the coming of Mohammad.

In the Quran, Jesus neither suffers nor dies on the cross but is rather raised alive into heaven.

The demons in hell are rejoicing.

I've just now sat here and come up with some new lyrics to the old song "God Bless America"...

Here it is, sadly....

God save America, before its too late.
We've been careless, weve been pridefull,
weve forgotten what once made us great...

Weve been slothfull, and self sufficient, we dont need You, any more...
God, save America, before its too late..God save America, before its too late.

That literally makes me sick to my stomach. :BangHead::BangHead::BangHead:

 

[preacher4truth]

Preachers and believers (I use these terms loosely) that do this, if this is even true, are simply apostatizing from the Faith once delivered to the saints.

Let all the apostates come forth.

I'd say this is an extension of political correctness and tolerance that has infiltrated the church like leaven. The Gospel is becoming a "Gospel of Tolerance," i.e. accept every unrepentant soul as one in the same as us, drop your tenets of faith, or be scorned as a hater. This is one reason I say and hold that repentance is necessary, and is part of all tue believers salvation.

When we start throwing out tenets of the faith and necessary parts of salvation/soteriological truth, we better start asking ourselves what's at stake.

The above article shoud be enough to awaken anyone who believes otherwise.

Perhaps burning at the stake or beheading of those who oppose will be the mandate of this group of "tolerant" peoples.

- Peace and Grace to His

Just type in Rick Warren and hit enter. Rick Warren is just like the promise keepers Catholic through and through.

Folks this was a blog post with no reference or substantiation. I would be careful coming to any conclusions.

This whole thing got started from "Aprising Ministries" ongoing campaign against Rick Warren.

It has been picked up by some, but it all winds back to that Aprising crew. I completely, completely challenge the claims in their criticism of Warren and others. They have no basis and it is just another of their lame attempts to go after a good man who is reaching people with the Gospel.

I know Warren isn't equally appreciated around here, but I still believe he is a good man doing a good work reaching people with the good Gospel.

(Not much new, but I tend to feel a sense of credibility if its a baptist source.)

According to what I have seen, Rick responded to this question on Twitter with "“@chadrob Chad, I’ve never heard of “Chrislam” There’s only 1 Gospel 1 Savior, 1 Way to heaven John 14:6, Eph. 2:8-9"

I do not share the appreciation of others with regard to much of his ministry. But we need to be clear and precise with facts when engaging with criticism. So far all I see is an unsubstantiated claim. This appears to be an unChristian smear.

Here's the list of sermons preached on the date (Feb 6 2011) at this church, Memorial Drive Presbyterian Church in Houston TX that allegedly is preaching "Christlam."

Not one message shows this Christlam accusation. Go take a gander.

Here is their main page:

Also note, no "contact us" on pastor Mikes site, and no documented proof either.

Most fantastical slanderous websites have no "contact us" tab. Another like site is jesusislord.com. They don't want to be contacted to provide proof. Why? They can't.

I think the issue is that he is speaking of being able to get along and work for some social issues together. I don't necessarily agree with doing so but in some cases, you have no choice. But I'd certainly not want to attack any Muslim and would want to encourage our church members to love them and pray for them and preach the Gospel unless they ask us to stop - and then just live it. I don't see anything wrong with doing that but it seems some people always want to be at odds with those outside the body of Christ and look at them as the enemy.

For what it's worth, I actually know this church and several staff members. It's a good church with a good staff and good people. As you've noted there isn't an actual evidence to substantiate the accusation.

Right now, in their denomination, they are one of the few standing against the recent decisions about same s3x marriages among the clergy. We need their voice and need not slander them.
