Blood Bought 1953

They do not understand the Source of their Salvation.They are trying to trust “their” performance with its ups and downs instead of the Perfect Performance thAt was finished on their behalf by Jesus on the Cross,shedding His Blood .

We may disagree about our approach in regard to the Muslims , but it is nice to know we are Brothers in Christ. God bless.

Morality is great .Jesus was big on it.So is anybody that has Half of a brain.Unfortunatly it does not save nor does it keep you saved.Satan knows it.He also knows he can fool people into Hell by having a person think “ hey , I’m not perfect but I am doing the best I can , I’m a moral person ,that will get me to Heaven. Give me what I deserve for all the sacrifices I made in my life to be a moral man!” And then God will give him what he deserves— Hell. I never accused you of denying Christ’s deity.....I clearly stated I did know what you believed I fully agree with your last statement....I thought that I said essentially the same thing Believing Pauls Gospel is what saves and it is what keeps us saved.....God will ask everyone “ did you believe I sacrificed My Son for you sins....did you believe He rose from the dead?” How you answer those questions will determine your fate. He will not care about your “ morality”. Many “ Christians” will get it wrong—-All Muslims will.

This is the best I can do for now.....it is from Zola’s site by Gary Bauer www.humanevents.com It is time for those interested in peace between Muslims and Christians to face some cold, hard facts. This is not the first Jihad. This is not the first Holy War. And any road to peace and mutual understanding must first travel back in time to acknowledge the historical truths about how conflicts between radical Islam and the rest of the world have been resolved. In the meantime, hollow platitudes about mutual understanding and conversation must end. In the early 8th Century, radical Islamists had been waging war for decades, imposing their faith on Christians throughout Europe. They had conquered Spain and parts of modern-day France and Germany. But, in 732, a one-day battle changed the course of history. In the Battle of Tours, Charles Martel led a Christian army of Franks and Burgundians to a bloody and decisive victory against the invading jihadists — a victory that stemmed the tide of Islamic expansionism in Europe. Martel prevailed at Tours because he recognized exactly what was at stake. He understood that his army could determine whether Christian civilization would continue or Islamic theocracy prevail throughout Europe. Thus Martel took decisive action, which, in the words of historian Edward Gibbon, rescued our ancestors of Britain, and our neighbors of Gaul [France], from the civil and religious yoke of the Koran. Western civilization again faces a defining moment in the struggle to defend itself against an enemy that seeks its demise. Sadly, however, many in the West today, including many Christians, fail to understand whats at stake: the continuation of our way of life and even our very lives. This is not merely an election between two political parties with a common interest in the peace and prosperity of the world. This is an existential conflict in which one side says, convert or die. Recently, over 300 evangelical, mainline Protestant, Catholic and Orthodox Christian leaders sponsored a letter seeking reconciliation and common ground with Islam. The letter, Loving God and Neighbor Together, was issued as a response to a similar letter written to Christians by 138 Muslim leaders last fall. The Christian letter expressed regrets for the Crusades and for excesses of the war on terror, acknowledged Allah as the God of the Bible and insisted that, without peace and justice between these two religious communities, there can be no meaningful peace in the world. But while inter-faith dialogue can be useful, the letter failed to appreciate that a real conversation can take place only when both sides negotiate in good faith, in a spirit of mutual respect and with a willingness to address the truth of the disagreements at hand. One truth Christians must come to terms with is that Muslims are not looking to be one of many respected faiths active in the world. To the jihadists and their sympathizers, Islams place in the world is a zero-sum affair — they will impose Islam on the world or die trying — and pretending otherwise does no good in achieving understanding. Leith Anderson, president of the National Association of Evangelicals, explained why he signed Loving God and Neighbor Together, by stating that not signing could be damaging to these Christian brothers and sisters who live among Muslims. Which is precisely the problem. If by not signing a letter that acknowledges, and asks forgiveness for, Christian crimes but that remains silent on those of Muslims Anderson feels he may provoke a backlash against Christians in Muslim nations, then clearly reconciliation is illusory. Christians living in Muslim countries often face discrimination, and those who practice openly can be thrown in jail and even killed. Last July, 23 Christian Koreans were taken hostage, and a number were killed, by the Taliban in Afghanistan. But these Christian missionaries werent even trying to spread their faith, only providing aid and medical care to poor Afghans. Have the signers of Loving God and Neighbor Together forgotten what happened the last time a Christian leader tried to start a frank inter-faith discussion between Muslims and Christians? When Pope Benedict XVI attempted to engage Muslims in thoughtful dialogue, his remarks provoked a ridiculous and irrational response that led to violent public demonstrations, the calling for the popes head and the murder of a Catholic nun in Africa. Christians need to come to grips with the deep culture of violence that pervades many Muslim societies. A 2005 study found that Muslim nations are two-and-a-half times more likely than non-Muslim nations to be considered at the greatest risk of neglecting or mismanaging emerging societal crises such that these conflicts escalate to serious violence and/or government instability. Whats more, while its fashionable to refer to Islam as the religion of peace, the truth is that Islamic terrorists invariably cite faith as the motivation behind their deplorable acts. And when some Muslim leaders insist non-Muslims must convert or die, its clear that Muslims are not ready to negotiate in good faith. Even dedicated Muslim leaders like Benazir Bhutto pay with their lives when they are willing to talk candidly with Westerners about reaching a peaceful co-existence. I caution against the false hope of letters like Loving God and Neighbor Together. At the end of the day, an enemy committed to the total destruction of western civilization must be defeated. It is essential that Christians recognize that any attempts at finding common ground or mutual understanding with Muslims will be fruitless unless and until Muslims stand up to confront their co-religionists use of faith to justify violence and the annihilation of the west.

Sorry but no.......it was on one of his shows and it was over twenty years ago and it was actually just an off- hand remark

All true.....I would add it was a good way to show how the Spirit of the Law trumps the Letter of the Law. Love,Mercy and Justice.

All Muslims do.....it’s the ticket in....Allah aka Satan wastes no time.....let’s get that damnation assured ASAP. I don’t know what Badjao believes, but if he is a Muslim he thinks Jesus is just another Prophet, no different from Moses.

Shiloh.....if I remember correctly you were a fan of Zola Levitt.....A great teacher and the sweetest person you could ever hope to meet.....he spent many years mingling with all sorts of Islamic followers....addressing the issue of the morality of this religion ,he said there was no such thing as a “ good Muslim”. Powerful words from a man who never said a bad word about anybody.He was qualified to speak with authority.....few people knew them better,firsthand

Satan loves it when we concentrate on peace and love.....anything to take our eyes off Christ....Satan sits fat and sassy as long as you deny the deity of Christ as all Muslims do.He has all the ammo he needs to have you join him in Hell. Morality minus Christ....your ticket to hell

Hang in there ,lulu.......I am sure many others here will be praying for you.God bless

Jesus also called gentiles “dogs”...... He called Pharisees “snakes and sons of hell”..... He even called beloved Peter “ Satan” to his very face.So much for the sweet and lovable Jesus myth. Muslims refer to Jesus as a prophet.....on the same level as Moses .....God has no Son.....Jesus did not rise from the dead.....the list goes on.A five minute google search will show these things and much more if one wants to see the truth. I do see your point however. I would like to hear from others.How would Paul handle these blind souls? I would especially be interested in Shiloh and Willa’s opinion.Can someone notify them?

I could not have said it better myself..... thank you, Jeff

“The lost” deserve to know the truth about Islam.Followers of this damnable religion tend to be hush- hush about all the requirements to join in.

Babies don’t take up that much room.....give the dogs to some new good owners.....I’d put the dogs to sleep rather than get in the mess you are awaiting.....if your wife thinks her solution would be acceptable to any man with guts and brains, she is delusional......The next baby that comes along will not likely share your DNA....good luck to you

True.....but going from murderer to non- murderer did not save them. They were still sinners that needed a Savior.....what is “ good “ in man’s eye is filthy rags In the eyes of God....there is no one good,no not one.God is not in the business of saving good men to make them better....He is looking for dead men in order to make them alive.

Unbelief is is the only thing that keeps one out.Faith alone is the only thing that gets you in.Most of the Bible was written by murderers.....all saved by their faith.

Here is something that is no lie.....if you desire to convert to % Islam, the first thing you must do is to renounce the Deity of Jesus Christ,insuring your damnation.Satan in the guise of allah has deceived you.Islams denial of Christ is all the Satan cares about.....the rest of Islam’s beliefs are small potato’s

I am glad you benefited from my post...your kind reply meant more to me than you will ever know.Faith need not be complex. Faith is a gift from God and if you have enough faith to believe that Jesus paid the price for your sins and that He bodily rose from the grave,you have enough faith to be saved.That is a promise from God.Believing the promises of God is what faith is.The same One that gave you that faith to believe on HisSon will test your faith from time to time to see that it matures.It is all His doing because He will finish the good work in you that He started.The faith walk is not complex.Its just not easy all the time, but God will give you no more than you can handle.His Holy Spirit in you will gradually transform you into the image of His Son. If you do your part....simply trust Him.....He will do His part , the transforming part.Yes, Faith is not easy—— but at least it is possible....Law keeping is not possible and God made it that way on purpose.The impossible system of keeping the Law to save you or keep you saved is what God calls “perverting His Gospel” and will damn many of the souls you see in here.....RUN, don’t walk from such types.....How are we to live? The JUST shall LIVE by FAITH!.........not by law-keeping, despite ones best intentions......legalism sounds good to man,it appeals to his pride. It has its roots in Satan....it is VERY subtle.Sorry , I did not mean to go for so long....I just get carried away sometimes...lol.Please take these things to heart, as I will be praying for you ever day. God bless

Lesley.....I know exactly where you are coming from.For five years I essentially sat on the bed and stared st the floor.Depression is not sadness.Depression is like being dead.Everything pleasurable in your life means nothing anymore.If one has not lived it—- they don’t understand it.Well intentioned people think if you go out in your front yard and do jumping jacks everything will be fine.Doesnt work that way.My Depression came on very slowly , but vanished quite suddenly.Never give up hope.EVERYTHING can change in a day.It was a combination of finding the right drugs and hanging on to faith.Nothing is more important than prayer and I believe the prayers of others was involved in my cure. I am adding my prayers to the many people of faith in this site. “ blessed ones GO THROUGH valleys of weeping” God bless you pleasurable

Anybody out there have a daughter?.....I do.If my daughter was married to anybody that hit her I would go beat the crap out of him and pay for her divorce if I had to.Guess I’m just not perfect yet.

God blessed Mary with an amazing honor, but she paid a heavy price for it and like her other sons, didn’t fully understand Him.

I can imagine enjoying the most beautiful scenery in the Heavens on my Harley.Perhaps with Jesus on the back.oooops better take that back......no fun allowed in Heaven! No wonder the world is so turned off to Christianity.Even a common sinner recognizes sanctimony.

Not an expert here but don’t a lot of them preach Lordship Salvation? Do any of them preach the pure unadulterated Gospel thAt Paul gave us in 1 cor15:1-4 ? Haven’t seen one of these tracts for many years.

You seemed to to include everything but the blues......for shame! Lol

if I hear any rap “ music ‘ in Heaven......well, let’s just say it ain’t gonna be Heaven for me.....lol
