The Islamic Jesus never rose from the dead or died for mankind’s sins. The Islamic Jesus bows before Muhammad and according to the Hadithas actually returns and kills the Christians and the Jews. Since Islam doesn’t really believe in the either the Old or New Covenant they aren’t really even an Abrahamic religion; but merely claim to be.

As a Jew, I agree. I have Experienced hundreds of invocations in my job. With the GOP and government. It is disrespectful to say we pray in the name of Jesus because I don’t. It’s just as easy to say we pray in HIS name or I pray in the name of Jesus but is soon as you say we pray in the name of Jesus you’ve knocked out everyone else who doesn’t believe that Jesus as their Lord and Savior. It is a problem in the Republican Party.

Luke 12:51
Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:

Jesus is a divisive OMEN.

Ghandi = Not divisive
Mohommad = Not divisive (in fact embraced)
Buddha = Not divisive
The Pope = Not divisive

The reason these democrats and muslims fear & despise Jesus is because they are spiritually blind and He & His teachings sears their consciences.

John 14:6
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

Reject Jesus = HELL
Accept, Believe, Confess, & Call to Jesus = HEAVEN

These Christ rejectors are fools.

She’s never been truly married to a true Muslim Sheikh.

But she’s fightin’ for her “truth to power” so it’s all good I suppose. Domestic violence, honor killings and all.

Is there anything wrong with having a nation or two on this planet free of islam? Or is Satan that afraid that God's blessing upon the faithful will shine so brightly for the other nations that it cannot be permitted?

FU!

I once thought anyone with any religious beliefs can hold office under our Constitution as long as they uphold it and uphold American values. These Islam clowns need to prove that they don't put Islam first. The American ghetto Muslims like those from Philadelphia are a special kind of city detritus.

Divide He will!

Matthew 25:31-33:

"When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:

And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:

And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left."

Give her a break. The Name of Jesus probably gave her a case of soulburn.

[ HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The first female Muslim member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives said Tuesday she was offended by a colleague’s decision to open a voting session with a prayer a day earlier that “at the name of Jesus every knee will bow.”

Democratic Rep. Movita Johnson-Harrell of Philadelphia said she felt the remarks by Rep. Stephanie Borowicz shortly before Johnson-Harrell took the oath of office on Monday used her religion against her.

“I thought that for the most part, the entire invocation was offensive,” Johnson-Harrell told reporters, noting that her own religion respects Jesus. “But to use Jesus as a weapon is not OK.” ]

The truth from Scripture offends thee, Movita Johnson-Harrell, doesn’t it? Yes, it does.

[ and that we cannot use these issues to tear each other down," Johnson-Harrell said. "And not only that, it was made during my swearing in." ]

They believe that Jesus was born of the virgin Mary too. They also believe that He will slay the antichrist in the last days. They get some things wrong, but they believe in Him nonetheless. Many Christians and Muslims get together and talk about and share a common bond though Him.

The Prime Minister of New Zealand just declared that in the WHOLE country the Islamic muslim call to prayer will be broadcast.

In every nook and cranny.

Four times a day.

Looks like the mosque bombing served the purpose for the Religion of Pieces

The Hadithas do not say that he will kill Christians and Jews, but rather after he slays the antichrist, that the people of the book (Christians and Jews) will all believe in him.

A Muslim prayer was said from the House dais during the ceremony.

How do they know it was a "Muslim" prayer?

Was it in English or was it in Arabic?

According to the Quran, Jesus is simply a lieutenant to the prophet Mohamed, which is the one that Islamist follow. If you ask an Islamist If they believe that Jesus died on the cross, was buried, then rose from the dead, a true Islamist believer will tell you that he doesn’t. It’s made pretty clear in John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Jesus makes it pretty clear to everyone that there is only one way to the Father. Mohamed is not it. Cultural Muslims will be and are being changed by turning to belief in Jesus. We also see Islamists leave Islam and turn to Jesus. The bottom line is that what one believes doesn’t really matter. It’s what is true.

Okay, so we’re not in disagreement. In my opinion, the best way to the Father is through Jesus, and since they do believe in Jesus, though a perverted version, there is some common ground. I’d much rather be sharing Jesus stories with Muslims than trading bullets.

Where is the evidence that Jesus is simply the “best” way? Jesus is the “only” way. He doesn’t expect to have blind followers but has proven through fulfilling numerous prophesies made hundreds of years earlier and performing mind blowing miracles in front of lots of witnesses that he is the true Son of God. Mohamed never performed miracles, never accurately predicted future events and certainly was never raised from the dead. Those who follow Islam are headed down the wrong road and it will be a nightmare when they reach the end.
