Billboards proclaiming ‘Jesus is Muslim’ getting people upset
By Will Lerner 22 hours ago Odd News
Billboards that are being displayed in parts of Ohio are certainly getting people talking. The large advertisements have been paid for by a local Muslim organization and say things like, “Jesus is Muslim,” and “Mohammed is in the Bible.” As WSYX ABC 6 reports, this has some people outraged and others defending the message.
The billboards are promoting Ask A Muslim, an organization that is, “dedicated to educating you about Islam, giving you a chance to hear about Islam from practicing Muslims.” Kenneth Tour, who became Muslim five years ago, spoke with WSYX. He said that the point of the billboards is to get people to learn about Islam, and that, “When we say Jesus is Muslim, someone who is Muslim, what that means is, someone who submits to God.”
The Columbus Dispatch spoke with Ashfaq Parker, whose organization, Why Islam, collaborates with Ask A Muslim. He told the paper, “There’s nothing wrong with having differences in terms of what to believe, and there’s nothing wrong with talking about them and getting know each other.” Judging by Ask a Muslim’s website, it appears their message is also directed toward those who practice Islam who might be dubious of the connection between their religion and Jesus Christ. In their, “Jesus was Muslim” section, they write, “…Muslims are Christians – if “Christian” means someone following the teachings of Christ, so by learning about Islam you are not disobeying Jesus.”

When speaking about Jesus’ death you must follow it up with His resurrection or else He is not any different from PedoMo.
Walid Shoebat does have some very interesting insights. Thought provoking to say the least.
The billboards too.
Good plan :)
I don’t know, how about a billboard stating MO is Christian?!
That’s being too kind to Moe Moe.

I’d like to see them everywhere. Let’s bring it to a head and get this over with....
Excellent!!!
the available space limited the length of my harangue. if the text were any smaller it would lose impact..
time for another CRUSADE it is!
THAT man was right about almost everything!
If it read, “Jesus loves Muslims,” then I would have no problem with it.
Yep...he sure was. And still most don’t hear except what they want to hear.
late night torch parties of offending billboards
What? Don't you know that if it read that, to a Muslim it would mean only Muslims are loved....just as they say they want Peace....but it is peace only through Islam.
I am a Christian with Muslim friends and get upset with some of the polemics exhibited in many places including here, but it is very important that Muslims be presented with Jesus and the Gospel. The signs (unintentionally) provide a great starting point for discussion with Muslims about the Gospel.
Muslims believe Jesus was a virgin-born prophet, sent by God, performed miracles, and was the ONLY(!) sinless man that ever lived. Muslims should be encouraged to study his life and the New Testament. A great recent book on a Muslim who came to Christ is “Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus,” by Qureshi. It’s a great read with apologetics from a unique viewpoint, especially if you want to share the Gospel with your Muslim neighbors, friends and co-workers..
Jesus Christ is the one and only Son of God.
Islam’s fake moon god allah doesn’t have a son.
This is just a big fat lie. But so it the rest of Islamic ideology.
Islam is a war plan.
