Chrislam is a false teaching because Christianity and Islam are diametrically opposed on all the most important issues. The Islamic Moon God, Allah, is a singular entity while the Christian God is triune (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). Muslims view Jesus Christ as a prophet while Christianity says He is God, the second member of the triune Godhead. True Christianity declares Jesus to be God incarnate and born of a virgin, while Islam says that Allah is unknowable. For Christians, the deity of Christ is a non-negotiable, for without His deity, Jesus’ death on the cross would not have been sufficient to be the atoning sacrifice for the sins of the entire world (1 John 2:2). Islam demands the death of the Infidel to atone for a Muslim's sins.
Islam adamantly rejects the deity of Christ. The Qur’an declares the idea that Jesus is God to be blasphemy (5:17). Belief in the deity of Christ is considered shirk (“filth”) to Muslims. Further, Islam denies the death of Christ on the cross (4:157-158). The most crucial doctrine of the Christian faith is rejected in Islam. As a result, the two religions are absolutely not compatible, making Chrislam a concept both Christians and Muslims should reject.
Some current proponents of Chrislam are Rick Warren, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, late Robert Schuller, Glen Beck, Tony Campolo, Brian Maclaren, Joel Osteen, and Pope Francis. Chrislamic people themselves see no problem with the basic unity of the two religions, because they say that God loves all people and wants us to love all people. President Obama's former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright is quoted as saying, “I made it [Chrislam] comfortable for him [Obama] to accept Christianity without having to renounce his Islamic background.”

Well, we all know how that turned out...
I suggest the good Rev Roberts go to Mecca and try to worship Jesus. The muslims he embraces will let him do that/s
Pathetic, absolutely pathetic. There is no Christ in these people.

Islam is incompatible with humanity
More and more it seems that the anti-Christ will rise out of Islam. It angers me to see those who claim to be followers of Christ embrace a system that hates Him. I’ve been grateful for Franklin Graham’s stand on the truth.
“Some current proponents of Chrislam are... late Robert Schuller”
Nah. Not any more.
The term Christian being used very loosely.
God Bless Franklin Graham!
The Reverend Dr. Roberts’s work email:

They seem to celebrate diversity there
White pastors, Black pastor, Mexican pastor, Girl pastor, Old pastor.
The statement of faith actually doesn’t look that bad.
Actually, I don’t think that there is any big surprise here for those of us who believe in the second coming of Christ and the prophesies of that period we call the ‘end times’. I remember years ago preachers talking about the dangers of ecumenism (which generally refers to the idea of finding harmony amongst the various ‘factions’ of Christianity and ‘interfaith pluralism’ which is finding harmony and a common ground amongst other religions. My reading of prophesy finds that references to ‘other faiths’ are somewhat lacking......not to say that there is none but it seems to be more the case of there being one large false religion (overseen by the false prophet) and one tiny remnant of true believers... who are mostly slaughtered for their faith during the Great Tribulation. If someone else’s reading of prophesy is different than mine on this issue, I’d like to hear how they came to that view.
10.NE better for you! - God is only One God. Far be it removed from His transcendent majesty that He should have a son. His is all that is
11.in the heavens and all that is in the earth.
Church members should leave NorthWood Church in Keller, Texas as long as Bob Roberts Jr. is pastor.
I would take myself and my financial support elsewhere. Let the muslims fund his church.
Muzzies are killing Christians and destroying churches in the middle east. Has Roberts spoken out against this? What about his muzzie pals?
I love Franklin Graham. He tells it like it is.
[i.e. Sunni v Shia].
Islam's reformation will occur when Mecca, Medina, and Qom cease to exist.

well, Bobby I have no idea what you mean but Rev Graham is a Christian and what he did was quite Christian..
He was “blowing the trumpet” he was warning about enemies of God and God’s people..
HOORAY Franklin Graham.
Oh, spare me....
North wood ministries is a humanist outreach liberal leaning church ashamed to call themselves Baptists
There are always a few about anywhere for a PC folks
These churches neglect doctrine that offends or requires responsibility instead focusing on outreach good works and mushy salvation explanations
My southern baptists church calls Moslem fundies the enemy
And homosexual marriage a rot
And abortion baby killing
These soft pastors much like our egalitarian pope are just a symptom of the times
Best ignored
