“The money is just to good from the donor class.”
It’s a much bigger problem than that. It’s the Saudi donor class and the Moroccan donor class and the . . .
Ever wonder why the hard green movement has infinite amounts of money? And why the US government can do nothing about CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood and Madrassas in America that teach Wahabbi fundamentalism, hatred of America, Sharia law and terrorism?
The Muslim peoples should be prime targets — for evangelism.
I think this is something that all too easily offended modern Christians miss.
There was a mosque built not too long ago in the Nashville area next to a major church.
Most of the church people thought “how dare they accost us like that? we don’t want their pressure on us with their jihad, their sharia, etc.!”
But the few that thought “Hey! People that we can now witness to! This is very convenient!” were a minority.
But anyhow, wouldn’t that be just like God to see that all the investment that the Islamic “donor classes” put into raising up presences in the Western world, delivered Muslims to the door of churches where they’d believe?
It requires the Christian hardihood to put up with a lot of guff to be able to do this. And it needn’t mean a blind acceptance. The kind of “extreme vetting” that Trump wants to do will emphasize that yes, behavior matters and yes, it’s a historical issue with Islam. But even that is an edge that Christianity can use. Many Muslims may not even understand why their behavior is taken with such an affront by the West. Christians who are knowledgeable can, in love that shows, explain that when you embrace the devil, you start to look like the devil too — but that needn’t be your everlasting fate.
