For centuries, the Church has battled against the heresies of Emperors, kings, tyrants, and even its own adherents. Today, Islam has slithered into some of the inner circles of the highest-ranking Church officials. One such instance is the confidant and secretary for left-wing female Archbishop Antje Jackelen of the corrupted Church of Sweden, a theologian named Jakob Wiren. In a new book, Wiren claims that the Church should regard Mohammed as a prophet.
In an interview with Swedish newspaper Dagen, Wiren states, “Regarding the concept of prophecy, it’s quite open. There are prophets and prophesying even after Jesus’s resurrection, especially in the New Testament.” However, this is patently false.
Most Protestant denominations believe that after Jesus’ resurrection and the passing of the twelve Apostles, Biblical prophecy has been closed until the return of Jesus, a term known as ‘cessation of revelation.’ They reason that Jesus was the fulfillment of Old Testament Biblical prophecy; therefore, any prophecy after that of the Apostle John’s Revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ is rejected…

Mohammed and his teachings are the complete opposite of Jesus’ teachings. Jesus taught to love the sinner and hate the sin. Mohammed taught to kill the sinner and justify the sin if it’s done in allahs name. Jesus taught to hold to your oaths; Mohammed taught to breaks oaths in order to gain wealth, land and conquering. I could go on and on. Mohammed was the complete opposite of Jesus
The final prophesy is that Satan will succeed in deceiving many.
In bookstores is a very expensive, beautifully bound in green leather Holy Koran. If one was going to give a gift to someone, like a president, or any other high "ranking" person in society, it is what you would buy.
Every page was in Arabic on the left side, and English on the right. The English side was just like the other modern ones, all the "bad" stuff left out.
I have a non Muslim friend who is fluent in spoken and read Arabic. I asked him to come to the bookstore with me, because I was too cheap to buy the book.
I pointed out the sura I mentioned, and a few others, plus there were some he was familiar with he wanted to check. (he had spent quite a few years in Saudi-Arabia as a civilian). I have never seen the expression that came on his face before. Absolute shock.
He had only seen true versions before too. He said, "My God, they are two different books". I remember those exact words. I don't remember the rest of his comments word for word, but he went on to say, that this explains why so many people in our government have the wrong idea about Islam.
Every non Muslim (infidel) needs to read a true translation of the Holy Koran. Then they might understand why this is happening and why it will never stop happening.
IMHO these are probably the most accurate translations, and they are FREE.
On the other hand, Catholics have historically believed that prophets have arisen even after the New Testament. However, the testing of these prophets has always been a stringent and exacting process. The Catholic Magisterium, the body of Catholic theologians that has set and interpreted Catholic dogma and canon law throughout the Church’s long and embattled history, has also made it a point to require that all new prophecies, whether they come from a vision or from the inspiration of one of the Catholic faithful, must be in accordance with the lineage of doctrine and prophecy that has come before it. Any new prophecy that rejects or explicitly changes any of the essential principles of the Catholic creed is to be rejected.
This is a misrepresentation of Catholic teaching as it implies that new "prophecies" can become official Catholic teaching. The Catholic Church (along with the Eastern Orthodox and Protestants) also teaches that public revelation ended with the death of the last apostle. This includes the Sacred Scriptures (which are uniquely put down under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit) and Sacred Tradition, that which handed down from the Apostles and is lived out in the life of the Church from the beginning (as is apparent from the witness of the earliest Church Fathers).
The writer of this article may be referring to what are called private revelation that is periodically received by individuals (things like Fatima, Lourdes, Guadalupe, etc.). But these are not part of the Church's deposit of Faith and no one is bound to believe them except the person who received them. The Church may investigate them to determine whether they seem to be authentic or fake, but even then they are not placed on a par with revealed truth that is binding on all Christians.
Yep.
Maranatha!
Even so come quickly, Lord Jesus.
That's because Satan is the antithesis of Jesus.
Agree though not totally. The reason Mohammed didn’t want his followers reading the New Testament is that they would discover that he wasn’t terribly creative and ripped off a number of Christian ideas. The 72 virgins is an obvious rip off of Jesus sending out 72 disciples.
After being defeated at the cross, Satan needed a counterblow. So he convinced a weak-minded pedophile to create a false religion that is, in many ways, an evil mirror image of Christianity. This was done in mockery of Christianity.
My belief is that the Biblical antichrist isn’t a single person - it’s the personification of Islam. There is nothing more anti-Christ than Islam. And the abomination of desecration that Jesus warned us about is already in place - what could be more abominable and desecrating than a temple to Satan right where God’s Temple should be?
So Satan is rapidly running out of time and is getting desperate. It’s why those who worship him are going berserk right now.
