[QUOTE=Walks_in_islam;1188406]We were not discussing Islam. We were discussing the founding of our country in the context of the historical intolerance of the church. You have the bad luck of being the current poster boy for this. Do you believe your constant message of intolerance absent the message you are tasked to teach has place in paradise? If it did then Jesus would certainly have noted it and I do not recall it as noted. [quote]

I tell you this - you declare others lost while failing to recognize the beam in your own eye. In this there is a danger to you, as Jesus himself taught you. [quote]

The founding of the nation of America was certainly not settled by the descendents of Islam.

My "beam" was taken out of my eye long ago by GRACE, apart from works lest I should have boasted. And even then it took years to understand and accept the extent of GRACE as apart from works relative to salvation. Man resists penciling himself out of the salvic equation. He persists in believing he is somehow intrinsically instrumental in his calling and election. He persists in believing the predestination factor really proceeds from himself. This is one of the great follies of all "do it yourself" religions. Islam and present day Judaism are two peas in a pod in this respect. Work, work, work. Keep Saturday as the Sabbath. Don't eat hog. Do this, do that, bow down, face Mecca. Etc.

Yes, you are a lost and dying individual as you now stand. Mohammad could not save himself much less others. He could not lead his disciples to the WAY. He is NOT the prophet of the TRUE and LIVING GOD. His "one god" was Allah, the one god as opposed to the many gods of the desert, the MOON GOD.

Indeed Islam has one god, Allah. They freely and persistenly confess Allah. But the Allah is not the HaShem of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob ... THE GOD and FATHER our the LORD Yeshua Messiah. And therein lies all the difference in the universe.

Islam is a dead end philosophy as is other Eastern Religions and philosophies. They lead to eternal separation from the Presence of the LORD. There is no efficacy in the teachings of the Koran. Practical information, "laws," inter personal directives but no path leading to the Saviour. It is an earthly code of conduct, it has no means of a true gospel.

You have heard the Gospel, the claims of the Hebrew Prophets and Apostles so there is no excuse you will be able to offer at THAT Day. You [apparently] have been allowed to receive what cannot save, at least to this present hour. What your eventual destiny might be is not mine to know. However, should you breathe your last as a disciple of Islam, there is no hope of eternal life. None at all. You would have rejected the ONLY acceptable offering for SIN and therefore your sin would have remained which cannot be permitted to transit the next plane of existence.

Now, you must go your way to the end of [your] days and the True and Living God judges all at that [second] resurrection for those who refused the offer of the Gospel.

Yeshua alone is the Way, the Truth and the Life, no man can approach the FATHER but by Him [Yeshua]. He is the One and Only Door that leads to life eternal. Mohammad yet resides in the shades awaiting his resurrection.

Repent or Perish the King announced to the Jews. It is the WORD to this generation, Jew, Muslim, Christian [professed], mankind. It is a universal WORD. It has no earthly boundaries, its Voice rings throughout the universe.

Except you repent you shall likewise perish, eternally.
