1 John 2:18-19
18 Children, it is the last hour. And as you have heard, "Antichrist is coming," even now many antichrists have come. We know from this that it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us, but they did not belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us. However, they went out so that it might be made clear that none of them belongs to us.

Christianity was corrupted early on. Its decline in spirituality can be observed by anyone. Vain attempts at propping up the decayed cross are of no avail. Faith without works is dead. This is the crux of the matter. Why show hypocrisy to others by being vain? Christians should practice what their religion teaches. That will make its teachings clear to others beyond a shadow of doubt.

Matthew 7:3
Why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but don't notice the log in your own eye?

Obviously people who are hypocritical need to be reformed. The approach of Jesus did not produce a significant following among the Children of Israel, whom he considered his audience. Paul founded the religion practiced by Christians, not Jesus. The perversion of Jesus' teachings are clear. Islam definitely improves on Christianity. Hence the antagonism towards Islam.

John 3:16- For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Christians believe that Jesus Christ died for the salvation of all humankind, who need only to believe and accept his gift. Hypocrisy is part of the human condition, one of the sins for which we need forgiveness.

God's covenant with the Jews was not cancelled, to my knowledge. But their path to salvation appears more difficult to this outsider.

Islam does not accept His sacrifice, and requires the Muslim to lie to, enslave or kill those who do not follow its teachings (infidels, which includes Christians and Jews). True Christians pray for the Muslims and all other believers (of other "gods") and non-believers, that they might find their way to salvation through Christ.

I had better get to work lying and killing the infidels! LOL. If this perversion you put forth had really been Islam, this country would have serious turmoil on a daily basis. Indeed, this country would be like Iraq and Afghanistan. Thank God this is not Islam.
