It's easier to just hate em all and be done with it then it is to better understand the situation of our times.Yes it is easy to hate, but it is wrong. God told us to love all people including our enemies.
However, it is not wrong to point out who the enemies of Christians are. The people who knowingly embrace Islam are our enemies. It is also not wrong for Christians to defend themselves from their enemies. We should actively seek to identify any and all terrorist in our country and deport them. God is with us since we follow the only way to the Father, Jesus Christ the son of God.

What we may be experiencing here is God reaching out to people who have been impenetrable to the gospel for centuries. Just as the fall of the Soviet Union opened the door for missionary activity in regions not previously open to the word, so a careful discernment now may enable Moslems questioning their faith for the first time, to escape from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of heaven. If somehow, despite appearances, this could have been the pastor's intent, it would be in line with Paul's intent to "be all things to all people, that by any means some may be saved." I would hope and pray that Moslems like Hazma01 would recoil from their religion and seek the saviour. "Upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it."
