Muslim Haters

The school year started off with a bang in Florida when a grade school student showed up wearing a T-shirt with this printed on it, "Islam is of the devil." To their credit, the administrators sent the child home. The local church responsible for this action is Dove World Outreach Center and they are not sorry for their actions.

Under the first amendment , Dove has the right to proclaim it's views. They have also erected a sign stating the same hate message. Since 9/11 this is an all to frequent stance and signifies hatred. This muslim bashing threatens American muslims and undermines what the Christian church stands for. The next step is violence.

It has been stated by Charles Hanes that Rod Parsley and Pat Robertson have blatantly condemned the muslim religion on their TV shows.

Why is this wrong? According to God's Word, we are to love everybody----point blank---everybody. Who are we to judge other peoples. I believe the majority of muslims who live here in this country are peace loving folks and they are entitled to practice whatever faith they choose.

And, God said, "Take the plank out your own eye before you worry about the speck in your neighbor's eye." We all have the same blood regardless of culture and God loves us whether we are muslim, budhist, new age, or whatever. That doesn't mean that they are saved, it just means he loves them as much as He loves me. So respect that and love your neighbor as you love yourself. Amen.

This hypocrisy is what drives folks away from our churches and keeps many of the youth from even coming in the first place. If preachers would just preach the Bible, we'd be a lot better off. The Word will draw people like flys on a dead calf. But cynical hypocrisy will keep them away in droves. So straighten up way word churches and do what God tells you to in His Word.
