I don’t disagree with you. But we as the faithful are given the law and the history to u destined the fulfillment of the gospel. You do know there is this thing called the Old Testament which is divinely inspired so we know how we got to where we are today. I make no comment as to the the validity of Islam as a religion. I simply commented to someone else the history God has chosen to reveal to us at this end of the age. Seems to be you are a bit like Ishmael who is always looking for a fight and to divide.

But hey, if you are satisfied with a shallow understanding of the faith perhaps it that is what is best for you. I offer no judgment. But point out one errant thing I have said. Islam traced through Ishmael by Abraham having a son with Hagar against the command of God points to sin keading to a divided and violent world. In fact the scripture records that the sins of the father Are visited into the third and fourth generations.

Knowing the consequence of sin and the world divided offers us understanding of why we are how we are. It also points to the absolutely need for the savior who comes to us through the house and lineage of David. It is through this understanding that we come to know not only our desperate need for atonement but that we cannot accomplish this on our own. The law, you see, points to the gospel. The only hope for salvation for those of who are not Gods chosen people.

I will certainly pray for you it might be good to revisit the scripture surrounding those who sow seeds of dissent within the church of Christ. If we are to accept the word as the inerrant word of God, and that the faithful of Christ will be known by their love, then one can certainly surmise that your words professing your faith and you words of unkindness are in conflict. I seem to recall something about the brood of vipers. You might want to look it up.

In any event, I will pray for peace for you and that you might find the peace that passes understanding and to reflect the love of the Savior

Good night.
