Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem






I really like exotic food. One of my favorites in Indian Cuisine. Most Indian Restaurants are run by Hindu People, and there is usually a shrine to one of their gods in the restaurant with little food offerings in front of it. Thai Restaurants often have something similar with a little Buddha statuette. Early in my Christian life, I found this troubling, but having read this chapter in 1st Corinthians, I just "let it go" and enjoyed my food, as long as it didn't make another believer "stumble".

However, in recent years, there has been a new development. Many Indian, Middle-Eastern, Greek, and other Asian Restaurants are now sporting placards saying that their meat is "Halal". While this would be acceptable to me in a restaurant owned and operated by Muslims, it does not make sense to me in restaurants run by Christians, Hindus, or Buddhists, whom have been subjugated and persecuted by this same group. In fact, that placard makes ME stumble, and I avoid such restaurants. I asked an Indian Christian friend of mine what that was all about, and she said that, at least in the Indian Restaurants, it was to attract people from Bangladesh, who share all the same culture as the Hindus except religion. "But, of course," she said, "We are not bound by such things."

I agreed. But I still found somewhere else to eat my curried chicken!

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

This Symbol Represents Christians in The Middle East, who desperately need our Prayers.

Hallelujah and Amen
