"They covet fields and take them by violence, also houses and seize them. So they oppress a man and his house, a man and his inheritance." (Micah 2:2)
Our text is a perfect description of Islam. Yet American Presidents, pundits, people who love to speak of progressivism, speak of Islam as one of "the world's three great religions." By the way, these "open-minded," progressive, liberal opportunists are caught in their own contradiction. How can you be broadminded and exclude Hinduism and Buddhism? Beware; individuals who speak of "the world's three great religions" know nothing of life in Jesus Christ. They reveal that religion is window dressing to them, not, "I and the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father, but by Me. "
Let's forget the followers of Muhammad and Jesus for a moment. Just consider the men. Muhammad put to the sword all who would not "submit" to him. But instead of a raging warmonger, Jesus came to, "Lay down My life for the sheep....No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of Myself." The Living Triune God demonstrated His love in giving as opposed to taking, forgiving as opposed to cutting of hands and heads.
The world has had a very clear choice for fourteen hundred years, Muhammad, who came, "only to steal, and to kill, and to destroy," or Jesus, Who, "came that they might have life, and...might have it more abundantly"---------------------------------------- Any questions?
Father, in Jesus' Name, release the prophets in your Church. Amen.
