After the terror attacks in Paris, Pastor Robert Jeffress from First Baptist Dallas denounced Islam, calling it an evil and false religion.
This isn't the first time he's made the headlines for fiery rhetoric, and that's why one of his critics calls him "bad for Dallas."
On Tuesday, FOX 4's Richard Ray spoke to the Pastor, who sticks by those statements.

I can’t imagine what would happen if a reporter came to my church...
Just saw the video at the bottom. Good video.
Wish more Pastor’s and Priest’s were saying the same thing.
Islam is evil. I believe the anti-Christ.
I just love Dr Warner’s work!
"That's flat wrong," said Hunt. "I hear that accusation all the time, but the reason is because pastors like Robert Jeffress and his followers simply believe that there's only a binary world. You either agree with them or you disagree with them. This is not an either or; you're either with Jeffress or you're against him. It's a matter of asking that he show the dignity and respect for other religions that they deserve and for other religious people that they deserve."
It's apparent that Hunt wasn't paying attention. Jeffress' sermon was given within 48 hours of the Paris jihad attack, and that sermon reflected the precise degree of dignity and respect Islam deserves having repeatedly conducted violent acts of Islamic tolerance, dignity and respect for non-muhumedans.
Finally, a Baptist minister brave enough to tell the truth! Guess he’s not afraid of losing his tax status.
After watching his seminar, my first thought was: what an idiot George W. Bush was for ever proclaiming Islam to be "a religion of peace".
Isaiah 5:20 "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil..."
It's also clear now who our fight is going to be with.
The thing is, Islam doesn’t ask for dignity and respect. Islam demands that we become Muslim or slaves.
Jesus apparently thought it is a binary world: He said he would is not for me is against me.
Doesn't get more plain than that. Thank you Pastor Jeffress.
“You either agree with them or you disagree with them.”
This difference between Islam and Christianity is if you don’t agree with Islam, those muzzies will cut your head off with a dull butter knife. Christians don’t care if you believe the God of the Bible or not, just don’t force them to do or agree with things that are against their religion.
And Pastor Jeffress isn’t teaching his opinion, he’s teaching God’s opinion.
Truth hurts. Muslims are evil. Muslims are a cult.
Yes well, he was praised a lot more than he was criticized. Good and evil have always been at war.
If “three hostile newspapers are more to be feared than a thousand bayonets”, the Mainstream Media is more to be feared than a nuke.
Muzzies are bad for the planet.
It’s been going on for almost 1400 years, won’t end anytime soon. Islam has been at war with everyone else since 622 A.D. It must remain so according to their book until there is only Islam. Mad Mo made it so.
John Quincy Adams on Islam
In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.
Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).
After 9/11, our preacher at that time did a whole series of
“classes” on Islam at BIBLE study. I’d had all of Islam I
could stomach by then; but husband had a “man crush” on this
preacher and pressured me to go to the “studies”. After
that, the same preacher started preaching “at” me in his
sermons, looking right at me while making accusations of
absenteeism. - Shortly thereafter, I left. I cast about for
a while; but I’m glad I left and wish I had sooner. Husband
stuck around there another 8 months; but it has damaged
our relationship to some degree. He feels perfectly
justified. We *have* been going to a totally different
church about 6 yrs. now. I think that preacher missed Fang’s
offering for a while; but I see there’s a lot of poor louts
parked around that church lately. A whole new set of suckers.
Dr. Jeffress simply speaks truth to the evil he sees. He was also soundly lambasted for standing up and calling homosexuality a sin. Dr. Jeffress continues to speak biblical truth, as he knows that he answers to The Almighty.
