Begging forgiveness of Islam?
WorldNetDaily: Begging forgiveness of Islam?: “Jesus did not teach believers to seek common ground with the world. He did not teach us to conform ourselves to the ways of those who deny Him. He did not teach us to compromise our faith to find peace. He, did, however, command us to ‘Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature’ (Mark 16:15). If today’s Christian leaders want peace, they should be about the business of their Lord, spreading the Gospel to Muslims and other non-believers, rather than conducting interfaith dialogues with those who keep those non-believers in darkness. “

A big amen to that. Joseph Farah understands what the Gospel is about. Unlike the Laodiceans of our times, he is concerned about the salvation of the Muslims. And so am I. So should any true Christian. It is not a rational thing or a wordly and superficial love. It is agape, God’s fatherly love which we have if we have the Spirit of God living inside of, us teaching us to live by His commands.
There are many Muslims (some that I know of personally) who don’t find in Islam what their empty hearts seek to be filled with. It is freedom from bondage to sin, and God as a loving Father who judges the evildoers and protects His name Himself without his believers having to wage wars on others. They need the Bread of Life and the Living Water - nobody but Jesus Christ!
‘Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.‘ - John 4:13-14
I’ve read about Muslims who had never read a Bible nor spoken to a Christian before, yet they became Christians because they had dreams about Jesus. There are Muslims who are inspired by Jesus even as they see Him as a prophet. We have enormous opportunities to reach out to them but people don’t see it! If only they’d listen to the Word of God instead of listening to those televangelist with their lukewarm mumbo jumbo that would rather have the Muslims perish!! That really angers me.
‘Woe to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have run greedily in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in the rebellion of Korah.‘ - Jude 1:11
Those who seek common ground with the world, belong to the world! They are not from the Father.
‘And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people.” Therefore “Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you.”‘ - 2 Co 6:16-17
My Dutch Bible literally says “what common ground has the Temple of God with the idols?”
