With what has happened in New York and Washington, I have been shocked that Christians are still unaware of the danger posed by Islam and it's 1.3 billion followers. Most Christian Americans try to evaluate the Muslim by Christian standards. The Muslim god is not the same and their founder is not the same and their writings are not the same as Christianity. Their standards are totally different from the teachings of Christ Love and the Holy Bible's teaching that the heart is cause of all of man's problem.
I have done much research in the Koran for the last 5 years and the history of Mohammad and his religious organization. In only an a few hours, I found many of verses that are very disturbing as well as of great concern to the free world. Let me share with you some passages from the Koran that explain their motivations behind the bombings. There is also part of a Friday sermon from an Islamic religious leader, which explains how they interpret the verses cited.
Sura 9, Verse 30 "The Jews said, "Ezra is the son of GOD," while the Christians said, "Jesus is the son of GOD!" These are blasphemies uttered by their mouths. They thus match the blasphemies of those who have disbelieved in the past. Allah condemns them. They have surely deviated."
“Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book (Bible), until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.” –The Koran, Sura 9:29
This verse emphasizes that the infidel is to be subjected by force. If they continue to resist, they are to be executed. Special note is made of the responsibility to those who have the Bible, the Jews and Christians.
Sura 9, Verse 36 "The count of months, as far as Allah is concerned, is twelve. This has been Allah's law, since the day He created the heavens and the earth. Four of them are sacred.
This is the perfect religion; you shall not wrong your souls (by fighting)
during the Sacred Months. However, you may declare all-out Jihad against the idol worshipers (even during the Sacred Months), when they declare jihad against you, and know that Allah is on the side of the righteous."
(A previous verse (9:30) defines Christians and Messianic Jews as Idol worshipers. It should also be noted that the Koran teaches that Jews and Christians are at Jihad with "Allah," and by extension the Muslims, based on the fact that Jews and Christians exist and refuse to convert to Islam. Jews, Christians and Muslims are referred to as "People of Scripture" in the Koran because all three religions received Scripture. Jews and Christians are thought of as living blasphemies for not becoming Muslim.)
This passage tells that Jews and Christians cannot be friends of Muslims unless they accept the validity of Islam. To put it more directly if a Jew or Christian is religious and believes that Judaism or Christianity is true and thus better than Islam he is an enemy of the Muslims and an unbeliever. Two religions cannot coexist.
Sura 5, verse 51: "O you who believe, do not take certain Jews and Christians as allies; these are allies of one another. Those among you who ally themselves with these belong with them. Allah does not guide the transgressors."
Verse 57 explains the word "certain." Sura 5, verse 57: "O you who believe, do not befriend those among the recipients of previous scripture who mock and ridicule your religion, nor shall you befriend the disbelievers (in this Holy Quran). You shall reverence Allah, if you are really believers."
(A Christian or Jew who refuses to convert to Islam is effectively mocking Islam and claiming that Christianity or Judaism is superior to Islam. Note: the parenthetical specification is a Muslim addition, not mine.)
This passage tells of what a Muslim is allowed to do to anyone whom they encounter who does not believe in the Koran, and the rewards for those who die thus serving "Allah." Verse 4 is particularly sick; apparently, "Allah" wants people to fight in his name. The Sura discusses the end of the world and the war between "Allah" and the "evil" non-Muslims.
Sura 3, Verse 82: "Those who reject this (Quranic prophecy) are the evil ones."
NOTE: The parenthetical specification was in the translation of the Koran that I used, not my own addition.
This verse goes beyond simply claiming that Islam is superior to other religions. All religious people believe that their religion/sect/denomination is in some way better than others, but very few condemn all other faiths as "evil and seek to destroy them." Since the Koran gives the Muslim permission to do horrible things to the "evil people," it is important to see that these "evil people" are all non-Muslims.
Sura 47, verses 2-6 "2. Those who believe and work righteousness, and believe in what was sent down to Muhammad - which is the truth from their Lord - He remits their sins, and blesses them with contentment.
3. This is because those who disbelieve are following falsehood, while those who believe are following the truth from their Lord. Allah thus cites for the people their examples.
4. If you encounter those who disbelieve, you may strike the necks. If you take them as captives you may set them free or ransom them, until the Jihad ends. Had Allah willed, He could have granted you victory, with- out war. But He thus tests you by one another. As for those who get killed in the cause of Allah, He will never put their sacrifice to waste.
5. He will guide them, and bless them with contentment.
6. He will admit them into Paradise, that He described to them."
There is more denouncing belief in the divine nature of Jesus.
This material includes the claim that at the final judgment Jesus/Yshu`a will be the accuser who condemns all Christians to damnation for not becoming Muslim.
Sura 4, verses 157-159. "157. And for claiming that they killed the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of Allah. In fact, they never killed him, they never crucified him-they were made to think that they did. All factions who are disputing in this matter are full of doubt concerning this issue. They possess no knowledge; they only conjecture. For certain, they never killed him.
158. Instead, Allah raised him to Him; Allah is Almighty, Most Wise.
159. Everyone among the people of the scripture was required to believe in him before his death. On the Day of Resurrection, he will be a witness against them."
Of course there are many verses that make the usual Islamic claim that all Christians (All who believe in the divinity of the Messiah) are idol-worshipers and pagans.
How do these verses effect the actions of the Muslims? They have prompted the Arab invasion of Israel. These invaders call themselves "Palestinians" and claim that they were displaced from Israel in 1948. Historically Israel was 60% Jewish in 1920 under the British occupancy of Israel, before Jewish immigration back to Israel began.
The following excerpts, broadcast on PA TV, are from the Friday sermon [August 3, 2001] given by Sheik Ibrahim Madhi at the Sheik 'Ijlin Mosque in Gaza:
"Let the Mujaheedin saturate this blessed land with their pure and untainted blood. Then, the Jews will see miracles from us."
"A young man said to me: 'I am 14 years old, and I have four years left before I blow myself up amongst the Jews.' I said to him: Oh son, I ask Allah to give you and myself Martyrdom."
"The Koran is very clear on this: 'The greatest enemies of the Islamic nation are the Jews, may Allah fight them."
"Whoever can fight them with his weapons, should go out [to the battle]; whoever can fight them with a machine gun, should go out; whoever can fight them with a sword or a knife, should go out; whoever can fight them with his hands, should go out; This is our destiny."
"We blow them up in Hadera, we blow them up in Tel Aviv and in Netanya, and in this way, Allah establishes us as rulers over these gangs of vagabonds."
"In several years, Allah willing, we will enter Jerusalem as conquerors, to Jaffa as conquerors. To Haifa as conquerors, to Ashkelon as conquerors. We are certain that victory is near..."
"Blessings for whoever assaulted a soldier... Blessings for whoever has raised his sons on the education of Jihad and Martyrdom; blessings for whoever has saved a bullet in order to stick it in a Jew's head..."
Christians and Jews do worship the same God. However some Jews do not acknowledge the Messiah - some do, but we all understand the morality taught by God. The God of the Bible is defined by His personality, His love, His ethics, and His perfection. The "Allah" of the Koran is shown to lie to the Jews, make a mistake about sending Jesus who was incompetent according to the Koran (They claim that His mission was to convert all humanity to Islam), and promote violence against people who do not worship him. The Koran says that "Allah" dissolved the covenants made with the Jews and with the Christians and that both have corrupted the scriptures and only the Koran is the correct version. The "Allah" of Islam is NOT the God of Judaism and Christianity!
Sura 5, Verses 12-14 "12. Allah had taken a covenant from the Children of Israel, and we raised among them twelve patriarchs. And Allah said, "I am with you, so long as you observe the Contact Prayers (Salat), give the obligatory charity (Zakat), and believe in My messengers and respect them, and continue to lend Allah a loan of righteousness. I will then remit your sins, and admit you into gardens with flowing streams. Anyone who disbelieves after this, has indeed strayed off the right path.
[CENTER] Consequences of Violating God's Covenant
13. It was a consequence of their violating the covenant that we condemned them, and we caused their hearts to become hardened. Consequently, they took the words out of context, and disregarded some of the commandments given to them. You will continue to witness betrayal from them, excepting a few of them. You shall pardon them, and disregard them. Allah loves those who are benevolent."
Note that Allah must be bribed with favors in order to keep his word, But God keeps His word even if all mankind become liars. Also notice that only Jews who abandon belief in God and accept Islam may be forgiven for being born Jewish.
"[CENTER] Christians, too, Must Obey Allah's Messenger [Mohamed]
14. Also from those who said, "We are Christian," we took their covenant. But they disregarded some of the commandments given to them. Consequently, we condemned them to animosity and hatred among themselves, until the Day of Resurrection. Allah will then inform them of everything they had done."
So, according to the Koran both Christianity and Judaism have been abolished by Allah.
The Koran breaks up humanity in two ways: Spiritually: "The People of Scripture" (Jews Christians and Muslims), and the "People without Scripture" (everyone else). Physically: "the Children of Abraham" (Jews and Arabs), and the "Other Peoples" (Everyone else).
According to the Koran a person who has a reason for becoming Islamic and does not convert to Islam is a walking blasphemy and an idolater. By their breakdown of humanity, Jews have two reasons for converting to Islam and Christians have one. Thus Jews are their first target, and Christians are their second target as Judaism gave birth to Christianity according to Prophecy through Christ which was fulfilled.
Adolf Hitler lost WWII because he made war on too many of his targets at the same time. The Muslims have been more clever; they are taking their targets one at a time and toward the innocent as barbarians would do. We must realize the danger and protect our selves from further terrorist attacks as we become acquainted with their motives.
All Christians and Jews must stand together against those who would take away our freedom to worship the One True God. It is he's salvation and not ours that we abide by. If Islam would teach as Jesus taught, who is considered a great prophet by Muslims. They would understand that Jesus said to tell them of my Love, but if they do not listen then shake the dust from your feet and tell someone else who will listen about Gods love for all mankind. Let judgment day be the condemnation then and not now by pious religious individuals.
The country of Israel and America's closest ally next to Britain is surrounded by Muslim enemies. Israel fears Americas desertion of them. Is it a biblical responsibility to stand with Israel? I know my answer. How about yours?
Want to know more about Islam? "Read Tea with Terrorists" and "Prophet of Doom" by Craig Winn at http//www.prophetofdoom.net. I warn you in advance to be shocked and highly informed about why Christians should be more concerned. Craig has done his home work and a picture is worth a thousand words.
I also believe that this Arab woman found on you tube and is secular has summed up everything for both Christians and Muslims as well as other religions and governments.
