This is not meant for POLITICAL CORRECTNESS but for TRUTH:
When I was a student at Oral Roberts University, I studied theology for my Undergraduate and Graduate Degrees.
One class that I took (so glad I did) was over Islam and the Quran.
This course was over the history of Islam as well as the teachings contained within the Quran. I was required to read the Quran as well as much of the Hadith.
Most people have never opened up a Quran, let alone read through it.
While studying the history of Islam and actually reading the Quran, I was blown away...
First, Islam has never been or ever will be a religion of peace. It advances by the sword. President Bush was WRONG!
Secondly, the values of Islam and the values of Western Civilization are irreconcilable. Oil and water. Wife beating, sex slavery, child abuse and much darker characteristics of Islam and the teachings of the Quran and the Hadith can never work within the framework of Western Civilization.
Thirdly, the founder of Islam and the founder of Christianity could not be more different. Muhammad according to Islamic sources was a brutal war lord and an individual who was betrothed to a 6 year old girl named Aisha and consummated the marriage when she was 9 years old. Let me repeat: Muhammad consummated the marriage when she was 9 years old! These are not my claims, but Islamic claims.
The push back to what I just wrote is that in our modern world there are moderate Muslims. That is TRUE. Not every Muslim is a radical Jihadist. In fact, there are some very upstanding and moral Muslims that I personally know.
However, every radical Jihadist is a Muslim and there are millions of them who are sold-out on a Islamic Eschatological goal of a global caliphate.
Islam does not want to simply conquer the Middle East. The Western World is the prize and America is the crown jewel.
The two GREATEST persecutors of Christians today happen to be Islam and Communism.
Islamic countries like Iran and Nigeria as well as Communist countries like North Korea and China are the leaders in the deaths of thousands of Christians every year.
The election of a Communist Muslim as the Mayor of New York City is beyond concerning...
Last year, I delivered a message entitled "The Battle Between The Cross & The Crescent For America" which you can watch here:
It is so important that we pray for our brothers and sisters in the Lord who are persecuted in Islamic and Communist countries right now but that we also pray for our nation because there is a battle for the soul of America between the Cross and the Crescent.
Thank you,
