From the speech:

"Is it not possible to build a better world based on monotheism?"

I would note that it is the muslim position that Christians are not monotheistic, but rather worship 3 seperate Gods.

To the MSM, the only evil religious thoughts are Christian thoughts. In their multicultural world, any evil propagated by a non-Western, non-Christian person is acceptable because it's part of their culture. Our culture doesn't count.

I believe God is one Lord (Mark 12:29). He manifests himself in the form of the Father, the Word (the Son) and the Holy Ghost; but these three are one (1 John 5:7).

Refs:
Mark 12:29-30 "...The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment."

1 John 5:7 "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one."

Jesus also said, "I and my Father are one" (John 10:30); and it is written: "the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us..." (John 1:14); that is, the Word and Jesus are also one.

They believe Christianity is not monotheistic? He lists Jesus right in there with Mohammad as calling for monotheism, plus brotherhood and so on.

Quote: "He commands his creatures to enjoin one another to righteousness and virtue, and not to sin and transgression. All divine prophets, from the prophet Adam, peace be upon him, to the prophet Moses, to the prophet Jesus Christ, to the prophet Mohammad, have all called humanity to monotheism, justice, brotherhood, love and compassion."

The posted quote may be a bit flakey but it doesn't sound like a statement from someone declaring war or predicting a coming apocolypse. If his speech says this, please provide exact quotes of those words and a link to the source.

It is also important to understand that the Muslims believe that Jesus is only a prophet, not the Christ. In other words, they believe the the New Testament to be a lie, and they do not believe Christ came in the flesh. This is the spirit of Antichrist.

Refs:
1 John 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

1 John 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

2 John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.

That's one of the original planks in their platform going all the way back to their bloody founding. They will never understand and cannot be reasoned with about this.
