Anyone wonder why Christianity is dying in the West?
And why the only way to get the good news of the Gospel of Jesus back to the west is via those Christian missionaries who know what real Islam is all about.

“And why the only way to get the good news of the Gospel of Jesus back to the west is via those Christian missionaries who know what real Islam is all about.”
Good point.
In light of the Hebrew Roots movement trying to drag believers in Jesus back to the “ministry of death”, we also need Christian missionaries who know what real Judaism is all about!
Of course, Jesus chose Paul for that task...but they don’t like him.
The question I ask is, why they do not like St. Paul? He did the WILL of God by planting the SEEDS of the Gospel of Jesus. Plus Paul and the apostles ALL had the SPIRIT of Jesus SPEAKING for HIM.
Exactly.
Have you heard of the red-letter Christians? They're a liberal evangelical group that behaves as if only the words of Jesus Himself are "inspired", therefore the only enforcable Christian practices must derive from the gospels themselves.
On a similar note, several years ago there were a couple of Catholic FReepers (inactive now) who expressed their beliefs that the Apostle Paul was mentally ill. They did not trust modern interpretations of his epistles, but more to the point, they expressed doubts that any of Paul's writings were inspired by the Holy Spirit, and they did not understand why the Catholic Church had conferred sainthood upon him.
Never heard at all of the “red-letter Christians”.
I have noticed that the newer Bibles do not have Jesus’s words “red-lettered” which shows the importance of all of the scriptures are inspired.
I agree with you, however my only objection to the red font is that it's limited to only Jesus' words. I'd like to see it used for all of God's spoken words in both testaments.
