I recently wrote an article entitled “Islam: Dirty Work At The Crossroads.” I compared the current Islamization of America to a huge, out of control train. In that analogy, our nation is a stalled car at a railroad crossing – where Obama has parked us – and the coal train (Islam) is bearing down hard and fast toward our destruction. It was not an optimistic picture because my comparison is not an exaggeration.
I talked about the ‘malevolent spirit’ that drives that terroristic train. That got some attention.
The afternoon of its release, Arab World News picked up my story from Western Journalism. It was their lead feature for a while and stayed on their front page for the balance of the day. It remains in their archives. They chose my most provocative statement and ran THAT beneath the accompanying photograph.
I have since made stronger statements about the deception and danger of Islam. The world needs to be awakened to the realities of this “religion of peace” that will mow down anything in its path that is contrary to it.
On a Christian church marquis, a pastor recently put up the words “We don’t have to agree on ANYTHING, to be kind to one another.” Militant Islamists haven’t a nodding aquaintence with the concept of amicable disagreement. They kill people who disagree with them. Americans, however, are not obliged to cower before their tantrums.
Christians have been martyred for simply remaining faithful to God. Islam’s ‘martyrs’ include vaporized clones who have packed their own wives and children with explosives. Only the devil sees his prisoners as being so cheaply disposable.
I have to write about all this because I’m a Christian. The Bible calls it ‘exposing the works of darkness’ – an effort all Christians are supposed to take part in. While I have the right and opportunity here in America to openly speak the truth (and I don’t see that lasting much longer), I am obligated to expose devilish error – which Islam is. (Ephesians 5:11, Acts 4:12, etc.)
I’m not retracting anything I wrote – but one very important point should be added and emphasized. I pray that many of those who read my criticism of Islam will read this:
While America can still be considered a predominantly ‘Christian’ nation, we are generally no longer behaving as such. Nevertheless, I feel safe in saying that the remnant of ‘Christian America’ (and that includes this author) bears NO HATRED toward the PEOPLE of Islam.
Islam’s arrogant and paranoid ruling infrastructure has convinced their followers that Christianity opposes and hates the individual Muslim. And that simply isn’t so.
The One who made us all, THE TRUE GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (and the same One who may now be tapping on the door of your heart [John 16:7-8]) has commanded, indeed BEGS, His children to love all who don’t know Him personally. Far from hating Islamic people (as Islam HATES those who oppose it), we hate what Islam does to people and what we see it doing to our nation and the world.
I have known some Muslims, personally. Most have been friends and easy to love. Beneath the heavyhanded demands of Islam, Muslims are simply imperfect people, like the rest of us. The crucial difference between Muslims and Christians is that real Christians possess the forgiveness of God–and they KNOW it. They live and rest in it. Muslims, and others outside of Christ’s atoning sacrifice, only know the hard LABOR of trying (in vain) to earn God’s acceptance.
The prophet Amos once asked: “Can two walk together (in the same direction) unless they be agreed?” (Amos 3:3) The obvious answer is “No.” And that’s why true Christians can’t be politically correct. Even the threat of Islamic violence (and there is plenty of that) ultimately cannot force a Christian to pretend that God is in any way involved with that false religion.
Again, believing Christians are NOT haters of THE Muslim PEOPLE. We only despise the false religion that will wind them up in hell. And Islam is just that.
All the Bible-prophesied insanity happening around us confirms the spiritual battle underway for the souls of mankind. Fighting that battle, for the true Christian, is never a contest of ‘my god against your god,’ but rather the sincere presentation of the Word of God given in prayerful love. The crux of the battle centers entirely upon the light of God’s simple, verifiable truth exposing and vanquishing deceitful treachery.
The dark ayatollahs and imams of Islam keep followers in blinded obedience by the intimidating cruelty found in the Quran. Yet the love of God in Christ can easily break that spell. The might of God’s love is infinitely more powerful than the threat of the Islamic god’s vengeance. And people will obey, out of sheer gratitude, the promptings of God’s love, while legalistic fear will only produce compliant slaves.
The bottom line, Muslims, is that Jesus of the Bible died and conquered death (which your Quran denies). He put together the perfect covenant as a GIFT and told his children to help Him pursue the souls of lost mankind.
His enemy, the prince of darkness (who disguises himself as an angel of light [2 Corinthians 11:14]), will not relinquish his prisoners voluntarily. “Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.” (2 Corinthians 3:17) For the Muslim, there is no liberty–only law and judgment enforced by the fear of severe punishment and even death.
Islam’s undeniably carnal ‘heaven’ is eternal sex for the men and a vaguely described breather for the women who have obediently waited upon them.
The Christian’s heaven is simply being in the presence of God, available to all God’s born-again children, man or woman! Until you have tasted of His pure love and peace, you can’t even imagine what I’m talking about.
Certainly not all Americans are Christian. So don’t expect godly treatment from America, per se (especially under the leadership of our current president). But from real Christians, worldwide, our heart’s message to you is: “We love and pray for you. But the time remaining in this life, this time of decision, is short and soon to cease.”
Recognize the ungodly brutality of Islam for what it is, and repent. Say a silent prayer to that still, small voice in your heart which confirms His love for you! Call upon Jesus and be saved. It’s that simple.
“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12)
“And every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2:11)
