Jerry, not very helpful in spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ. If I was 'lost' and a Muslim and I heard Jerry Falwell call my religious prophet a 'terrorist', Christianity would be the last place I would turn to. Even if I agreed with Falwell, for a man claiming to be a messenger of the Gospel, this is not helpful in "making disciples of all nations."

perhaps, but let's cast this in a slightly different light and see if one comes to the same conclusion ...

If I was 'lost' and a Muslim A WWII GERMAN and I heard Jerry Falwell HARRY TRUMAN call my religious prophet a 'terrorist' CHANCELLOR A DICTATOR, Christianity DEMOCRACY would be the last place I would turn to.

sometimes it's better to just go ahead and say it ... as for comparing Mohammed to Hitler, if the shoe fits, wear it ... in light of recent actions, and history, I'd say it's a pretty comfortable fit ...

I don't believe comparing Hitler to Mohammed is a good analogy. I also don't believe comparing a Democracy to Christianity is not a very good analogy. I am talking about souls lost for eternity ("For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever should believe in him shall not perish but have EVERLASTING LIFE." John 3:16).

As Jesus said, "I am the WAY, the TRUTH, and THE LIFE NO ONE comes to Father except by me." I look at Muslims as lost people who will spend eternity in hell unless they accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. Falwell claiming to be a man of the sharing the Gospel with the lost, is not helping out God's cause by insulting Muslims. I agree Mohammed was an adulterer, murderer maybe even a so called terrorist but Falwell should know that man is a sinner ("For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23). This is not helpful for saving lost Muslims.
