This is blasphemy. One cannot have a religion that is against our Lord inside the church. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest shiloh357 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 This is nothing but a prostitution of the pulpit. These pastors who go whoring after other gods have made their churches into a fornication of bricks. "My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray..."

Whatever it is, it isn't of God's design, all it amounts to is false prophets or false readings. If the readings don't claim Jesus as Lord and Savior, it is rubbish.

(Jer. 50:6) I think you said this quite well, and I agree completely. It's providing a pulpit for the devil, and that's never right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respect the right of every person on earth to have faith in whatever they want. I respect that there are some very wonderful people who have faith in things other than Jesus BUT that does not mean I have to believe they are right or bring it into my church Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Unfortunately, after seeing that United Methodists, Episcopalians, and Unitarian Universalists (with a few United Church of Christ thrown in) are at the head of this, I am not surprised. That isn't to say that there aren't pastors in these churches that wouldn't oppose this (well, maybe not in the UU), but the way the Episcopal, United Methodist, and United Church of Christ is going as denominations, this is well in line with their current beliefs.

If they get any more open-minded, their brains will fall out. Maybe it's too late! If it wasn't for politics, a pastor could read something from the Koran, and discuss it as part of a sermon, his take and a Christian perspective on it. I don't see why we can't discuss anything in church, including what other people believe. We will beat to death what other Christians believe. We have sermons on death, sex, gambling, what kind of movies or media to watch, ... But since it's all political now, there are consequences if a pastor says something from the Koran is bad or good. All this takes freedom out of churches. There was a time that a pastor could have a terrific blood and thunder sermon on something like that. I read the Koran, and found much of it obnoxious. That doesn't mean all Muslims are obnoxious, it's the faith they grew up with. It would be interesting to hear Christians discuss it. But I don't want it in my church either, if it's political and not honest discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
