Ok, but what, if one is a Muslim, does one do about Muslim wrongdoing?
IIRC, Islam denies the Divinity of Christ.As do the other Jews. No one (sane) doubts that they worship the same "God" as Christians?so did jesus
I dont think a spell check will help you much, the weirdness is not so much the wrong (or in some cases, british) spellings but the way you build a sentence. And it's not just mistypings or even dyslexia (except perhaps the "Christain" which is a frequent dyslexia-thing).
If I were to guess, I'd say you were someplace in England but not a native Englishman.
I'm a Jew. I'd like to believe that you and your 1.2 billioni brethren throughout the world would not like to kill me. Sadly, I'm just not sold on that and if it comes to defending myself, I will.
I'd say Jonestown!
Lay off the Koolaid!

You say you used to be a Christian, but now are a practicing Muslim. Your understanding of Jesus, however, reveals that you don't know the faith that you converted from.
The Creator refers to Himself in Scripture in the plural. Very strange grammar, but it's right there -- He's at once both a single God (or Godhead), and also a trinity, One Who expresses Himself in three Persons (Father, Son, Holy Spirit).
It's clear that the Creator and Allah are not the same, no matter what some might say. There is really no way to become one of God's beloved Children but through the grace of God, as expressed in the sacrificial gift of Jesus' death on the cross. It's through faith in Christ that you can live a life reconciled with God.
My friend, please re-consider the freedom and purity and love and truth and power and salvation of the faith that you've left.
That's precisely the issue. There is not one of us who has followed His laws such that we earn any kind of standing with Him. None but One, the One in Whom if we place our trust we will join Him in Heaven in eternity.
This is exactly the issue -- Christians are saved through grace through faith in Christ, and respond to this love of God by our obedience. There is no way anyone can earn favor through their poor attempts at following His laws.
You, my friend, are a lawbreaker, and always will be. I am too. Consider following the One who fulfilled The Law.
i refuse to let some nut job define islam.
Then you better do something about the radical Imams,
the Islamist murderers, the fanatic madrasses, etc. etc.
You cannot defend Islam and not do so.
Fair enough. Slavery, in general, was a curse.
Slavery, in general, was a curse.
True enough, and hundreds of thousands of AMERICANS died
ending it, muslims will have to die trying to
end the curse of Islamic fanatism within their own religion
before the world can accept them as peaceful.
Chapter and verse.
when the crusaders invaded isreal that muslim and jews fought side by side and returned the jews their land?
And the jews were "Free"?
You can't really believe this bunk.
