As Christians of every stripe in Jesus' hometown of Nazareth begin to again take a real stand for their faith, local Muslims are warning them not to overstep the boundaries of their traditional place in the Middle East (hint: they must remain dhimmis, or second-class).
A large billboard hanging at a central point in Nazareth features a picture of an Israeli stop sign, along with the English translation of a verse from the Koran cautioning Christians (and Jews) to speak only the "truth" regarding Allah.
The poster (and Koran 4:171) reads:
"O people of the Scripture (Christians)! Do not exceed the limits of your religion. Say nothing but the truth about Allah (The One True God). The Christ Jesus, Son of Mary, was only a Messenger of God and His word conveyed to Mary and a spirit created by Him. So believe in God and His messengers and do not say: 'Three gods (trinity)'. Cease! It will be better for you. Indeed, Allah is the One and the Only God. His Holiness is far above having a son."
Evangelical Christians from Nazareth have become a growing and integral part of the overall Messianic body in the land, while traditional Christians (Catholics, Greek Orthodox, etc) have been waking up to their historical and religious connection to the Jews and are joining the Israeli army in ever greater numbers.

Pray for the Christians in the Middle East
They’ve proven incapable of living in civilized society. Send them back to Muslim lands already.
I see that you depicted him on his knees with his bare butt in the air.
Nice likeness.
Nothin’ says lovin’ like Islam.
Might be interesting to visit a palestinian ‘church’...Have to wonder if the priests are prevented from teaching the bible as it is in the US...Perhaps the palestinian Christians are a mix of muzlim/Christians which would preclude them from becoming actual Christians...
