everything you said is correct about Islam but it leaves out the Biblical Christian perspective
Islam appeals to the flesh, it appeals to the senses
Christianity is a Spiritual appeal, it appeals to man’s sin nature, something that men do not want to admit
By responding Biblically to that Holy Spirit a man is saved, but that is the rub
men do not want to respond to the Holy Spirit
They want to do it themselves, in their own flesh, they want to earn it
Islam appeals to the flesh, to man’s desire to do it his own way, to ignore God’s Grace and God’s provision through Jesus Christ
Satan appeals to our flesh so men do not respond to Christ. Islam ignores Christ and men work their way to heaven
But you sure nailed the first part of that one!
The Christian biblical perspective and the connection to the Holy Spirit is vacant to many, many Western young people - even the Christian ones today.
From the perspective of a young person who is shallow or even under the influence of the occult which is aggressively pushed on them in our society and who know no better, what I said is true.
I grew up in a different culture and time where Christianity was integrated into the people and families and to a large extent, into our way of public life or secular culture. There has been miles and miles of “progress” made by Marxists since then in cleansing Christianity/God out of public thought, culture and speech and even debasing God, Jesus and Christians.
Everything we believe in and value as a Christian American people, they turned up-side-down, harassed with political correctness and legally banned. Young people are immersed in that, self-hating, anti-moral and shame based culture.
It has been a long march through American institutions, including our personal relationships with our families, and our churches. It's scary but it is not like many of us did not see this coming.
Western elitists have been doing this to targeted native people they want to weaken and rule over for centuries. Americans Christians - were targeted by the Western elite - in the name of Marxist atheism; but like the Africans or American Indians who were targeted by the royalty in the name of Christianity. The same with Christian Europe only they are waaaay ahead of the US in the cleansing process. We are blessed in that the elite invaded and overwhelmed our nation with foreigners from mostly Christian/Catholic societies to the South. Europe has not been so fortunate.
