” People sometimes wonder why Jesus Christ, who lived six hundred years before Mohammed, has got fewer disciples than Mohammed to-day.”
Is this dated? There are more Christians today than Muslims.
There might have been more Christians than Moslems at the time of the sermon. Rev. Moody, for all his spiritual insight, has some iffy ideas of demographics.
Depends.
There’s a difference between followers of Jesus and followers of religion.
But his point is well made.
islam promises fulfillment of the lust of the flesh as reward for faithful service. IOW, not only is there nothing to give up, but all the fleshly lusts get more than fulfilled in heaven.
It caters to the sin nature on every level.
