For example, many Christians would agree that the Muslims are a decent and proper culture, much more so than most Americans, because they believe in no pants on women. While this is probably one of our building blocks and bridge-builders of unity with the Muslim community, we would not see eye to eye with them on all issues. Some of these issues are worth talking about and debating. While we disagree with Muslims on some issues, would our unity on the no pants on women trump (no pun intended) all other disagreements? I don't know. It's worth talking about.

It seems to be all over the map with no clear cut answer. I'm getting the impression that this is a schizophrenic blog. First we are radically anti-Trump, then at the same time we support the anti-Muslim views that the radical right like him hold. <br /><br />Then on other posts we have other posters lamenting the fact that "the mantle of Hyles" has not been filled, and then the blog owner comes on and basically admits that he is not 100% for Hyles. But then we have posters who call themselves "KJB," so one would of course think that this is a site that holds the defense of the KJV as the most important issue of the day, if not the most important. Hyles also wanted to firmly support the KJV..........Is there anyone here who does NOT have multiple personality disorder?

Yes, I would be interested in knowing h...Dear Jim,<br /><br />Yes, I would be interested in knowing how many Muslims the Anonymous people are confronting with the gospel and calling to repent of their idolatry and trust in Jehovah and His risen and eternal Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.<br /><br />By the way, I wish conservative Christian radio would spend more time explaining to people how to preach to Muslims and less time just saying that Islam is bad. It is bad, very, very bad, but they are part of the "every creature" mandate of Mark 16:15.<br /><br />Dear Anonymous evangelist of Muslims (who, I agree, has a much better reason for remaining anonymous),<br /><br />Thanks for pointing out the bad link. I will plan to fix it shortly, Lord willing.<br /><br />I agree that Islam is evil, very evil. However, I strongly disagree with the idea of making the Quran illegal. The Quran should be legal, as should Mein Kampf, the Communist Manifesto, North Korean propaganda, material by the KKK, etc. Muslims that are currently here should be allowed to lawfully and peacefully petition for sharia the same way that KKK people should be allowed to lawfully and peacefully prance around like morons in their white hoods and petition the government to reestablish segregation. If we give the government power to ban books because they argue for political viewpoints that are evil (as the Quran's political viewpoint certainly is), we give the government far too much power, and it could ban the Bible the way it banned the Quran. Banning the Quran would also not stop demon possession, as demons don't care what the laws of the US are when they decide to possess somebody, and demons can possess someone praying in front of a statue of Mary, or the gods of Joseph Smith, etc. Banning the Quran would also require overturning the First Amendment. Futhermore, it would actually lead to more people reading the Quran and more sympathy for Muslims. I cannot help but conclude that it is a very bad idea.<br /><br />Furthermore, a government that can ban a Muslim firebrand from preaching in favor of sharia can also ban a Baptist preacher from preaching against sodomy. Dictatorial atheist states in the 20th century (e. g., communist countries) killed many more people than Muslim sharia states. Opposition to Islam must not make us turn to the extreme danger of a too-powerful government.<br /><br />It is possible that in a nation with too many Muslims--e. g., Egypt--the only way to keep out Sharia may be avoiding freedom in favor of a dictator. However, when Muslims are c. 1% of the American population--as they are--they aren't going to take over any time soon and we should keep the First Amendment and freedom instead of going for an anti-Sharia dictator. A simple alternation in immigration policy that does not allow immigration from nations with a high percentage of popular support for terrorism would radically reduce Muslim immigration without even mentioning "Islam," and such a policy does not require abandoning freedom or the First Amendment.<br /><br />Thanks for the comment.KJB1611https://www.blogger.com/profile/09696273086955004524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-89910143634508242622016-04-11T09:29:10.098-07:002016-04-11T09:29:10.098-07:00I seriously doubt if the last poster was reading t...I seriously doubt if the last poster was reading the comments carefully or is familiar with this blog. Christians are against Trump for 3 reasons: Megan Kelly, Rosie O'Donnell, and Muslims. We have talked in other posts how much Trump is a bad candidate and no one should vote for him for these reasons. Calling Rosie O'Donnel a "slob" is not nice. Being against Fox news and more specifically, being against Megan Kelly, a delicate rose, is ant-woman. But more pertaining to this section, these above comments seem to only support the myth that "Muslims are terrorists and violent." Sure, some Muslims are, so so are some people from Texas. It's a total non sequitur to relate Muslims with violence. We don't like Trump's rudeness in saying Muslim immigrants should be "screened." That is rude and racist. We just are saddened that this blog seems to be all over the board and makes no sense. First we try to tell evangelicals that they shouldn't vote for Trump. Then in the same breath a couple of topics later we seem to be on the same side as Trump and agree with his anti-woman, anti-Muslim policies! Can we just please not confuse the audience and either not let these people post this Islamaphobia or at least put a warning on their posts?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-81314489171883569292016-04-09T12:29:20.533-07:002016-04-09T12:29:20.533-07:00Kent,

I&...Kent, <br /><br />I hope you can tolerate a little irony.<br />I'm reasonably certain that the anonymous posters, from the earlier comments, feel that you won't tells us what country this man is in & what his address & name is, due to your "unkind, backwoods, uneducated views on women and Muslims". Surely there is no danger, no honest reason to worry for anyone's safety, just your debilitating redneck prejudices. <br />Perhaps, as a test of his enlightenment, he should go to the nearest mosque & pass out the above mentioned tract, with his personal home address listed on the back. A man with such high regard for Muslim peacefulness would have no fear of such actions. <br /><br />I can only guess that much of this is a "drive by shooting" anonymous post. The person bringing up "the war against women & being anti-gay" sounds more like a deluded leftist, than someone concerned with Christianity.<br /><br />Thanks for letting me vent. I'm a better person now.<br /><br /><br />JimCamp65https://www.blogger.com/profile/08293018820976464851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-48488778427307514412016-04-08T21:13:07.051-07:002016-04-08T21:13:07.051-07:00All readers,

Excellent art...<br />Dear brothers Brandenburg and Ross,<br /><br />Excellent article and insight. Its exactly how we ought to preach to the Moslems. Its following the pattern of Biblical preachers, not only the apostles and the prophets of old, but also the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. <br /><br />I spent nearly 5 years living in a very devout Sharia law-run country. I preached the gospel openly and non-compromisingly. I also preached openly against the evils of Islam. I preached to "good" Moslems and to "bad" Moslems. "Good" Moslems are those that will kill you in obedience to Allah and the Qur'an. "Bad" Moslems, as also was mentioned in the article, are "secular Muslims". Indeed, I am writing in first hand and my head is still attached to my shoulders, only because of the grace of God. It is God's will that we rebuke evil (Eph. 5:11) and to point them to Christ, not just Moslems but all sinners. Christ spoke many things that were hard to hear by His audience (Jn. 6:60) and they found offensive (Jn. 6:61; Matt. 23 --indeed sinful mankind finds God's gospel offensive because of our pride and love of sin and self), yea even compelling His hearers to plot His death, but it didn't stop our blessed Saviour from speaking the truth in love. Neither did it stop any of the apostles, or Stephen, or other Bible preachers/prophets, etc.<br /><br />Those that argue against this article are "dhimmis". These are actually the ones that the "peace-loving" Moslems target. Nations with Biblical-based freedoms (or what remains of "freedom") ought to make the Qur'an illegal. That's where its got to start. No matter how many "bad" Muslims you have and no matter how secular they become, all it takes is one demon-possessed Imam to inspire (or propagate fear) and you now have a mosque full of "good" Muslims. They monger fear, and honour-killings are very common among Moslems, which I know personally due to the nature of my work in the Middle East. I would also add that the vast majority of devout Moslems are demon possessed. I have witnessed this even in little Moslem children. My wife (and other believers) is my witness. <br /><br />Your first link (National Review), by the way, in the article is bad. This one should work: http://www.nationalreview.com/article/428146/more-than-few-islamic-extremists <br /><br />I remain anonymous for a "good" reason, ;) <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-79759634698577690972016-04-08T18:42:06.312-07:002016-04-08T18:42:06.312-07:00It's actually Leroy St. Jean.

Now I thought Jesus Christ rebuked Peter for his use of his sword on a man? So can weapons be carried for general protection but not used?<br /><br />And did Jesus literally mean for His disciples to buy swords or were they mistaken?

I don't think anyone was disputing that. What we object to is this whole "Muslims are violent terrorist" negative stereotype, which this article seems to purport. That is unkind and rude. Some Christians also have disagreements over views on homosexuality. But to call Rosie O'Donnell a slob is just rude. She is a talented journalist, just as Megan Kelley is. We don't want to appear as if we support the "Muslims are terrorists" views or appear like we disagree with strong women who hold strong viewpoints, which is the main thing about Trump and this type of article that turns off Christians. You'd think the author of this article just can't wait to get down to the polls and strike his vote for Trump.

I don't think the posters talking about Trump were talking about Muslim doctrine. Most Christians are against Trump for his rudeness in three areas: His war against women via Megan Kelley. Miss Kelly is a fine, cultured, delicate flower-like women. To say rude things about Miss Kelly is just, well, rude. The stereotype about Muslims being "violent" and "terrorists" is another reason Christians don't stand with Trump. That is a rude stereotype that is just ignorant. Sure, there are some terrorists who happen to have been Muslims in history, but that is just a mathematical statistic, just like there have been some terrorists who have been left-handed. To subscribe to this view that Muslims are violent or terrorists is just rude. Lastly, most Christians disagree with calling Rosie O'Donell a slob. She is a talented talk show host who brings up interesting points on The View. To call her a slob is just rude and anti-gay and also anti-women. The reason Trump was even mentioned is that by linking to an article such as you did, which seems to ascribe to the "Muslims are violent" stereotype, makes us think you are a typical uneducated, white, redneck male. That is the only group that actually supports that guy. We are just concerned that you appear to have gone off the deep end and have started supporting Trump-like views.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-85096105658492372952016-04-03T01:42:35.307-07:002016-04-03T01:42:35.307-07:00Dear Pastor Brandenburg and Dr Ross,

Exchange Soviet for Muslim and it's the exact same phenomenon. <br /><br />"All this is not to suggest that liberals like the Soviet system. Their attitude toward it is peculiar. They see it as a sort of death-god, a Moloch, that must be constantly appeased and propitiated, never angered. Moloch is beyond morality. He is a "reality," which it is not our place to censure. That only makes him mad. And a good roar from Moloch sends liberals scurrying, indignant not at him, of course, but at whoever "provoked" him. Death, for thoroughly secularized people, is the final reality--not heaven, not even honor--and a power that can inflict death on a huge scale becomes a sort of ultimate from which it is prudent and even imperative to take one's orientation. If the Soviet Union no longer offers paradise, at least it can threaten us with hell. - Joseph Sobran 1985."Joshuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14387781402317600423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-82989727572250257392016-04-02T16:42:31.591-07:002016-04-02T16:42:31.591-07:00Anonymous,
I feel stereotyped by you, but that...Anonymous,<br /><br />I feel stereotyped by you, but that's OK, because you are you. Is that a stereotype too? You being you.<br /><br />It's interesting to me that people think Muslims will change if we don't confront their doctrine, but be all nicey-nicey too them and maybe act like they have some truth, and sort of allow some of their killing, because they deserve to do some of that, since it's their religion and all. People get saved because they hear the gospel. When they reject the gospel, they don't get saved. It's as not nice as it can be when someone goes to hell because we were so nice. But then again, people don't believe the gospel, like it seems you don't, anonymous.<br /><br />Did you know that God is very offended by homosexuality? He created woman for man and rebellion against that makes Him very unhappy. Making Him unhappy is less serious to you though than making Muslims, with a totally bogus fiction as a religion, that murders thousands, unhappy. Your credo for life, make Muslims happy, make God unhappy. That will work.

This article calls Muslims "violent" and does nothing but propagate that negative stereotype. The reasons that most Christians are not voting for Trump is because he is unkind in his statements against gays (think Rosie O'Donell and call her a slob) and against Muslims calling them "violent terrorists." I to am surprised that this blog owner is letting this post be part of his site. One would tend to think that Brandenburg is voting for Trump by allowing this type of rhetoric to be on his blog. Call me disappointed. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
