Islam and Christianity at the Crossroads

I had an interesting weekend in terms of a reminder of what Islam and its followers are up to.  We've seen what they've done to Europe (& elsewhere) . . . http://thurstonpundits.blogspot.com/search?q=islam.   They now have members of parliament in many of these countries.  Saturday, we went to see the new Navy Seal movie that my father in law recommended; Acts of Valor.  Very powerful and very enlightening movie.  The Seals are amazing men and incredibly trained and poised fighters.  The underlying message of the story line about Islam left the entire theater stunned and motionless after the movie.  Sunday, we had a guest preacher in from Mexico City.  He was encouraging missions and spreading the word.  Ironically, in a short segue, he went on to compare our mission work to Islam and talks about Europe, Africa and other places that they have taken over.  But, also says they are picking up their roots and replanting themselves all over Mexico, Central and South America now just like they are the United States.  There is a Mosque just a five minute walk from his house in Mexico.  It is no secret (to the rest of the world) that they want to take over the world and that they have no tolerance for other religious views.  They can't take over with their military but they know they can repopulate other countries that allow them to do so.  This preacher from Mexico knows it.  Still, we in America, continue to ignore it while our brave men and women in the armed forces and intelligence services fight off the swarms at our borders and abroad trying to invade our country and terrorize us.  Meanwhile, Mosques are quietly going up in every community across our Christian nation.  This Preacher from Mexico called the United States a huge mission field.  If that isn't a call to action for Christians in America, I don't know what is.  As he pointed out, we Christians want to take over the world too and, in the end, we will.  I read the book, newsflash, we win.  But, the difference is, we are called to go out and spread the word across the four corners of the world in Peace and in Love.  These two forces will never "co-exist" and they don't pretend that they want to.  It is written in their book and Nations of them have vowed to destroy (behead not be-friend) all Jews, Christians or any other view than their own.  Currently, in Iran, there is a Christian pastor awaiting execution for being Christian (that is his only crime and he was never a Muslim to begin with) . . . http://aclj.org/Nadarkhani.  Sharia Law is making it's way into American courts and cities . . . http://aclj.org/sharia-law/fox-news-judge-american-courts-can-use-sharia-law.  So, I don't know how this plays out in America where we value freedom, liberty and separation of church and state.  Islam does not . . . Islam says Freedom go to Hell.  Christians confess Jesus Christ as Lord that Jesus is the ONLY way.  Quite a looming predicament in America.  One thing I do know, it is time for the majority of Americans (Christians) to step up and change their luke warm faith and passive lives, myself included, if we are to regain our favor with God and preserve our freedoms and God given rights. Spread the good word of the saving grace, forgiveness and ultimate salvation of Jesus Christ.  Let's not sit on our hands when a co-worker spews some Pagan or secular misinformation.  Challenge then and be bold in the truth with the one who saves and who lives in us.  Spread the Good News and his executed plan of salvation.  That is how we reclaim America and, if not, we will at least save ourselves for an eternal life of joy and peace.  John 3:16.  Kind of beats the alternative.  America (this world) is in a spiritual war whether you want to grasp it or not.  May God (of the Bible and Israel) bless America once again.  It starts with us and it starts now . . . ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’
