Please don't confuse the word Arab with the word Muslim. There's nothing wrong with Arabs.
Actually, quoting the Bible is easy.
Explaining it and putting into context is a
more difficult task; but it can be done if one
so desires to.

Mt 10:42
And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
Mt 18:6
But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
Mt 18:10
Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.
Mt 18:14
Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.
Mr 9:42
And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
Lu 17:2
It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.
I read it as condemning as despicable the use of children as human shields by the Hezbians.
It wasn't my line,it's the line from the OP. Thank you.
I'm seeing the same thing-- here, at our Canadian Sister Site Free Dominion, and in the blogs "comments" sections. Something is really stirring them up.
What total unadulterated crap! IT MOST CERTAINLY GOES TO MOTIVE, HE LOOKS AT THE HEART! This sounds like goofball theology from some liberal denomination or peace group.
Go drink some more coffee and read the whole post.
When these people start quoting the Bible,I wonder why they've never happened to see the part about the woe that will befall those who turn against Israel?
FYI - PROPAGANDA On The Net....

And Israel is supposed to just lie there and enjoy it?"
Who in the world suggested that? Talk about trolling!
Why do you think this is a troll posting?? The bottom line is "there will be peace when Arabs love their children more than they hate Jews".
Seems about right to me."
Exactly right. Forcing a child to use his young body as a weapon of mass desy=truction is about as sick as one can get.
"The Koran says it's okay to kill kids."
And Jesus said NOT SO!

"The media war against Israel"

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "LONDON - Large sections of the international media are not only misreporting the current conflict in Lebanon. They are actively fanning the flames.
The BBC world service has a strong claim to be the number-one villain. It has come to sound like a virtual propaganda tool for Hezbollah. As it attempts to prove that Israel is guilty of committing "war crimes" and "crimes against humanity," it has introduced a new charge -- one which I have heard several times on-air in recent days."
I can agree with that.But the solution is for the international community to work up some indignation at the terrorists for doing it,not at Israel for defending their children from the rockets. And Israel is not in a position to do nothing.
Now...the War on Terror. Take the propaganda for our terrorist enemies elsewhere. It doesn't belong in the USA."
Matthew 18 is 'propoganda?' Sick!
"It could be that Jesus didn't feel the need to state the obvious."
Really? Seems obvious that offending little ones is not good---why bother mentioning it?
