‘Worship Only Jesus Christ': Woman Ejected From Muslim Prayer Gathering at National Cathedral
Christian News ^ | 11/14/14 | Heather Clark

Posted on 11/15/2014 6:04:28 AM PST by marshmallow

WASHINGTON – A woman who proclaimed the name of Jesus Christ during the first-ever Islamic Jumaa prayer gathering at Washington’s National Cathedral was ejected from the building on Friday.

“Jesus Christ died on that cross over there,” the unidentified woman declared as she stood in the front of the room. “He is the reason why we are to worship only Him. Jesus Christ is our lord and savior!”

A man nearby immediately approached her and attempted to reach for her arm, but she pulled away.

“We have built, and allowed you here in mosques across this country,” she continued. “Why can’t you worship in your mosque, and leave our churches alone?”

Another man approached as she was speaking and began to escort her out.

According to reports, the woman made the declaration immediately following the opening announcements that commenced this afternoon.

Brave woman! Agree with her 100%. Just like the LBGT, the Muslims want to co-opt Christianity. It is NOT theirs to take.

Would she do the same thing if Jews were holding a service there?

Thou shalt have no other god’s before thee...clearly the woman was right and the show went on after they escorted her out. Perhaps one might remember there was an earthquake in Virginia a few years back, only two building sustained damage...the Washington monument had cracks at the top where the aluminum plaque reads :Laus Deo “Praise be to God” and the Nathional Cathedral which had some exterior stuff fall off and it is still under repair.
Perhaps its just a coincidence or perhaps we have finally ticked off the Holy One.

Christianity is based on Judaism, not Mohammedism.

Attempting to “accost” me physically within a public accommodation will get you a serious wound,
AKA: A broken nose via a “straight-right”.

Any physical contact is “assault” and protected under the laws of the local municipality.

I think she has a point... Philippians 1:13-15

13 So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;

14 And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

Jews believe in the same God as the Christians, they just don’t believe in Jesus Christ, an important difference, but we consider Judaism to be the root of the Christian faith. If they wanted to say a Jewish prayer I’d have no problem, after all Jesus prayed some of the same prayers.

Muslims do not believe in YHWH, they believe in Mohammed’s moon god and to them Jesus is just a prophet.

Jesus isn’t their savior, so she could say the same thing.
If she did, would it make it right to do?

That would depend on if she is from one of the church denominations that have stolen the "Chosen Peoples" promises for themselves making God's promises into a lie.

Ummm, not exactly.

but I agree with your semi-equivalence regarding Mohammedism and the Christian Faith

“Would she do the same thing if Jews were holding a service there?”

What does that have to do with it? A Muslim service was being held there. She protested. Good on her. Shame on those who allowed the service to proceed.

The Cathedral Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul in the City and Diocese of Washington, operated under the more familiar name of Washington National Cathedral, is a cathedral of the Episcopal Church located in Washington, D.C., the capital of the United States.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_National_Cathedral]

It is a Christian church so to answer your question yes she should have done the same if Jews were holding a service there.

A woman being escorted from this Christian church for proclaiming the name of Christ is a travesty.

She spoke out about Jesus, who actually is revered by muslims. I didn’t see a quote about God.

How, then, do you interpret John 14:6?

Sorry, but I think she was rude. She should have protested or picketed outside.

Why were there not a thousand more up there with her? This would have shut the perverted event down, if nothing else.

The cathedral stated earlier this week that the goal of the event is to facilitate greater acceptance between Christians and Muslims,

Seems like a one way street in the acceptance parameter...

Muslim acceptance means submit...

But they didn’t. They brought adherents of Molech in there.
