Does the world have a problem with Islam  

Or, does Islam have a problem with the world?

  The world has changed drastically in the last 15 years. We should never become use to the atrocities we hear in news everyday.

Killing someone and shouting Allah hu akhbar is more than just an offense, it is an affront to the real God, the creator.

Which god is great? The god of death? The true God is the God of life and will severely punish those who kill, especially those who invoke god’s approval in doing so.

It is Satan, who as a thief, who loves to kill steal and destroy (John 10:10) Prov. 8: God says all those who hate me love death." They have said we love death like you love life. Our God says, The wicked love violence, they lie in wait for blood.

All of those who psychoanalyze, why do they do this? Think there is some reasonable explanation for them doing this ….well, the answer is in front of your face, it is as obvious as Bozos nose.

They do not believe in the God, but a certain God who hates individuals, those who follow the Messiah that He sent. These peoples Life is a threat to them. You being alive threatens a segment of Muslims that want to make the world Islamic by force and rid all other religions.

Islam is not just a religion, it is a complete surrender to its god and his system of life. A theology of submission with a belief in a theocracy (called umma), which encompasses religious, legal, political, economic, social, and military components.

 When one looks at Mohammed’s beginnings they have to accept the facts otherwise they are in denial. The evidence points to a book[s], that unites a religion/politics to an ideology.

The Quran is not the primary source of Islam, it is one of the primary sources of Islam. Their message is found also in the Hadiths.

Muslims say that Allah’s prophet would not do or say anything contradictory to the Quran. The Hadiths contain what Mohammed said during his teachings of 23 years. Sunnah is the way of the Prophet. Islam is submission to Allah AND his apostle, whom they call prophet Mohammed

Islam points to the prophets claiming their prophet is in the long line of prophets. But these former were not told to murder people, and their prophet did not follow in the footsteps of the prophets of Israel. Muhammad is like no prophet in the Bible. Murder is forbidden in the Ten Commandments. War is seen for defense only, never as a means for spreading religion. Koran commands to kill the infidel 35 times and we see Mohammed’s conquests recorded in the Hadiths.  

In the Hadiths we see the character of Mohammed that is not found in the Qur’an; His sayings and deeds, his specific instructions, how Islamic rituals and laws are to be carried out for the followers. It is history. It is as authoritative as the Qur’an and to reject the teachings of either of the texts is to reject Islam.

How do they follow Mohammed? Just a simple example, Muhammad said: “If you want to put on your shoes, put on the right shoe first; and if you want to take them off, take the left one first. Let the right shoe be the first to be put on and the last to be taken off.” (this is one of many examples)

The difference of obedience is that Jesus instructs us on morality, NOT matters of personal choice.

They are taught to despise the Bibles words and the bible Christ (who is God in the flesh), they are taught to despise and hate the God of Israel and the church, and especially the symbol of the cross. This is what most Imams teach, (not just Isis.)

There is a principle in life, in practicing spirituality/ religion --The God you serve will be reflected in your life. You replicate (reflect) the image of the God you serve. What image are the terrorists reflecting, not a merciful god!

Where do they get the ideas to kill people? From their books. Especially if we go to the Hadiths we find Mohammed ordered his followers to kill certain people and groups, and steal from others which made him wealthy.  Certain critics and satirical poets were assassinated for their words against Islam, they have had no tolerance for an opposing opinion from their beginning. If one studies history they will find Mohammed led some 27 invasions.

Yes, He was peaceful for a time, until his prophethood was rejected, then his attitude towards Christians and Jews changed.

But the media has perpetuated the concept of a peaceful, softer Islam, they become victims. But when you go to the Middle East you find it’s just not so.

Terrorism, religious or not, is a hate crime against all humanity. To make this plain, we are dealing with a global ideology wrapped in a religion at war with all religions and nations that are not Islamic. They are at war with those who are not Muslim, and Muslims who are not like them.

Let’s answer the question that so many ask: Are there any Muslim terrorists? (Because some say no terrorist is a Muslim, Muslims do not do this)

Do these terrorists practice their religion? Do they believe the tenets of Islam? Yes. They pray 5 times a day to Mecca, they read the Qur’an, they eat halal?  So why are they not Muslim?

They call those who did the crusades Christian, and some may have been, but there are huge differences. The crusaders were not following the commands of the Bible, nor Jesus. No Bible passage was used to promote this.  They could not validate their actions from the teachings of Jesus or the apostles, it was a churches mandate; they took orders from the Pope.

The Catholic Church wrongly had crusades which were a retaliation against the Islamic Jihad that took over Europe. The crusades were not done by Christians obedient to god's word, but Roman Catholics fighting to recover the conquered land and “Holy Land for the church.” The Roman church had blended religion with the state government and used force for their goal.

 In contrast to Biblical Christianity the concept of Jihad from Islam preceded the Crusades by nearly five centuries. The intolerance and violence that have characterized Islam throughout its history are founded in obedience to its books. The early Muslims have a record of killing innocent for centuries before the crusades ever took place, and a certain segment of devotes continue to do this.

 We often hear the quote "anyone who kills another man it is as if he has killed all mankind." But the whole quote changes its meaning, "For that cause We decreed for the Children of Israel that whosoever killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the earth, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind" (this is very similar to what is found in the Babylonian Talmud, Mishnah Sanhedrin 37a that was hundreds of years before. How does the Quran quote a Rabbi’s commentary)

 These "other words" prior to the quote certainly change the meaning that they present to people. Should we not ask why they cannot quote their own verse correctly to the public? It’s called taquiyya, a main principle of Shariah, something that all Muslims can use when dealing with kafirs (unbelievers). 

This is a commandment to the Children of Israel, not a commandment to all people. It is not Allah's command to those who follow Muhammad, for we have too many verses that say the opposite. To rid the land of the disbeliever, the infidel and all the other names they call them. While they have it to sound like all human life is valuable, and a certain segment of Muslims may hold to this; there are many that do not. It does not prohibit murdering any innocent human being. There is no getting around the Quran, and the Hadith employ jihad for the disbelievers .

Iran is the worlds leader in terrorism, Iran desires a Caliphate. The caliphate does not recognize the sovereignty of nations, only the superiority of Islam. It is THE evidence of an Islamic theocratic empire run by sharia law. When the caliphate is recognized by Islam they can try people under sharia law anywhere in the world, including the leaders of nations. This is  one reason why some see Iran more dangerous than Isis (who also has the same goal).  They are intentionally engineering their apocalypse, Jihad brings the coming of the Mahdi.

David wanted to build the temple to God, the Lord told him no!   “because thou hast been a man of war, and hast shed blood” (1 Chron. 28:3). The difference is obvious, their caliphate is being built by those who love shedding blood. Jesus said the meek will inherit the earth, not the forceful.

The Messiah - Our messiah returns to save Israel and the saints. The Muslim messiah (Isa) Jesus, comes to destroy Israel, the churches and convert the Christians to Islam.   Why do they hate Jesus? Because he tells them the truth of their condition which is only found in the Bible.

The words of Muhammad cannot be compared to the words of love Jesus told his followers:

“Love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:44). As you want people to treat you, so treat them” (Matthew 7:12). “You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:39).

“This is my commandment that you love one another” (John 15:12, 17).

You cannot find anything of equal value in Islam or any philosophy or religion on earth.  In fact, as Muhammad was dying, he asked Allah, to curse the Jews and Christians (Bukhari, Vol. 1, #427). Contrast this with Jesus asking the Father to forgive while he was dying- FOR them. This is God’s heavenly love that is supernatural, eternal and melts the heart of anyone who takes the time to see who Jesus really is.
