I’m old.
In my 70 years I worked with virtually every nationality on the face of the Earth
I was a Boeing engineer and a
engineer at Keck observatory.
If I have have ever met a Moslem,
I have no recollection of it.
Believe you me, I have worked closely
with people from all over the world.
I suppose most all of them didn’t
know I was a very Christian man.
Y’all don’t need to wear your faith
on your sleeve and flaunt it.
Share it when it is requested.
Keep it private otherwise.

Don't share your faith?

Not very "Christian" of you?

see Matthew 28:19-20.

I grew up overseas, have traveled a good part of the world, have a post-graduate degree, have interacted with people (especially Spanish-speakers) from all over the world, dated a Japanese woman for a year, dated a Chinese woman for a year and finally married a Mexican and have been married to her ever since. I too, am old.

Standing up for what is right in a world of evil has never been a problem for me and I have done so unapologetically. Often, the discussion is logical and not always Biblical. The God of the Bible raises up nations and he brings them down, when HE is ready (Daniel 5).

I don't know who was flaunting his/her Christianity that prompted your comment, but muslims lately have been flauting their islamism to an extreme and also unapologetically, which includes killing the infidel whenver they get the opportunity (the Koran teaches them to do this as we here all know by now).

Sometimes in leadership, one has to do things that are not always popular. The Bible, which you indicate you believe, has the following passage in it in the book of Ecclesiastes.

Eccesiastes 3:1,3, 8 - 1. There is an appointed time for everything.. And there is a time for every matter under heaven.

SNIP

3. A time to kill and a time to heal; a time to tear down and a time to build up.

SNIP

8. A time to love and a time to hate; a time for war and a time for peace.

It looks like right now that it has become a time for war and a time to kill. This "islam" must be stopped because it is the face of evil, pure and simple. Sharia law can NOT be allowed to be established in this nation no matter what it takes to get it stopped. Christianity and islam (sharia) can not cooexist. Such is impossible. Americans must repent and turn back to God and Christians need to publicly be calling for that for the salvation of this nation (see England for actual example of what can happen). If you call that "wearing it on your sleeve", so be it. muslims wear islam (sharia) on their sleeves every day they live and do so unapologetically.

Generally, you are correct, we are not to live as Pharisees going around browbeating people about the Bible or God. In Asia, where I grew up, around 1962-3, muslims ALMOST killed my dad. They were looking for a vehicle traveling on a particular road to attack and selected a vehicle that was traveling about 2 miles ahead of his vehicle. They killed everyone in that vehicle and fled, coming back by my dad's vehicle at a high rate of speed. When he and his group reached the wrecked/shot up vehicle, they realized how close they came. I will NEVER forget that.

This problem with islam calls for leadership to investigate/research what these people teach and to STOP it from coming here, period. islam can NOT be allowed to be even taught in this country is MY point of view BECAUSE of the insuing death and destruction that will follow. In all deference to your point of view, I stand my ground on that point.

I worked with a Muslim Somali for a shipping company. He was very energetic but did not put one neuron of care for the packages or their routings into his work. He spoke frequently of his yearning for the Hajj, wanting to complete it, and of changing his name to “Hajj”.
