What are your thoughts on Islam ?

[Van]

As with other posters, Christ is the truth, the way and the life. No one comes to God except through Christ. Thus all other religions are false religions according to scripture. (John 14:6)

What might make one false religion worse than say another? The "my way or the highway" religions, where alternate beliefs are crushed using the power of government. This is true of atheist governments, such as in China or Russia (Communist versions of totalitarianism) or theocracies such as in Iran.

Islam as modeled and taught and held by Muhammed would be the worst, as its literally the devils religion

And I don’t do it.

I’m not the one you answer to. You don’t have to confess to me.

You are right, I have no allegiance to you or your God consept. Far from it. So go take a hike.

Are you sure of that. How many Muslims do you actually know and have you confronted them directly with your revelation? I’m content to leave them alone simply because I know many (so called Christians) are some of the most two faced, liars and hypocrites in Gods world and on the last day the lord will tell them, I never knew you. Then they will go to the place prepared for them from the beginning of time and that’s Devine justice.

My God concept is the way God represents himself in Scripture. Your God concept is “happy, happy, joy, joy.” Jesus didn’t say spread the joy, he said spread the gospel. Don’t worry, I will not continue to try to provoke you to scriptural good works if it is not welcomed. But for the sake of other readers, I think it is important to…
Hebrews 10:24
…consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:

And since evangelizing is what we are told to do, it would be good to obey the commands of the Lord and do what He said.
If I can provoke someone to do that, I am doing what I have been given authority by Scripture to do.

You aren’t provoking, but you are irritating and that creates me to put you on ignore…. Bye!

I have found that over time EFW has become more caustic in his comments.

All other religions are the devil's religion. My way or the highway religions that use compulsion seem destined to usher in the end of the age.

All we need to do is compare and contrast Jesus with their Muhammed, and that proves beyond any doubt Islam is a demonic revealed religion

Unfortunately Darrell, that answer does not buy any potato’s as my elderly granny would say. I know a gentleman who routinely goes to Paterson NJ to minister to Muslims with not a very impressive conversion record. They resiliently hold to their ways…even actively proselytizing Islam to inner city African American communities thereby gaining Muslim adherents.

So what’s the message that stalwart Christians need to use to penetrate Muslim communities? Yes, Jesus loves you is one but what else can be used to open the eyes of the blind?

When we understand that we aren't the ones that can open eyes or hearts, and follow where we feel the Lord is leading us, then we ought not worry over what we think we are or are not accomplishing.

Every time your friend is witnessing to muslims is a time they aren't out gaining muslim adherents, right?

We simply seed and let others water, or vice versa, and leave the conversions to the Lord.

So, there you go: po ... tay ... toes.



I think judgment on your friends ministry might best be left for eternity. Only then will his record be known.

God bless.

For example, my wife is a stage 4 cancer patient and in constant pain.

Sorry to hear about this. I will pray for her.

God bless.
