In this video you will learn the story of how the Lord Jesus called one woman to speak out against an Imam who had come to pray at a Christian church.
The lady was not speaking out against Islam, or the Imam who was speaking. She was defending her Christian faith. However, It is very inappropriate to go against the organization in a place as important as the National Cathedral. This is extremism.
This is an excerpt from the Qur'an (which is the word of God, not that of Muhammad):
And behold! Allah (God) will say: "O Jesus the son of Mary! Did you say to men, worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of Allah.?" He will say: "Glory to You! Never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would indeed have known it. You know what is in my heart, Though I know not what is in Yours. For You know in full all that is hidden. Never said I to them aught except what You commanded me to say, to wit, 'worship Allah (God), my Lord and your Lord'; and I was a witness over them while I dwelt amongst them; when You took me up You were the Watcher over them, and You are a witness to all things. If You punish them, they are Your servants: If You forgive them, You are the Exalted in power, the Wise."
I have to tell you, Muslim75! I truly appreciate your willingness to be honest in stating she was defending her Christian faith. How many people would be willing to admit that? As for the National Cathedral? Christians would argue (and I am one) that our nation was founded on Christianity not Islam and therein it was not a matter of extremism but of outrage that a religion we do not acknowledge as following Jesus Christ would be permitted such a thing.
It would be somewhat like if a Witch doctor came into your Mosque in Mecca and said we moved here from Congo to live here and Saudi Arabia is our home and we want to hold a prayer meeting to our gods in your Mosque and do a sacrifice. Would you permit it? No. You would not. That is the point being made. Again, thank you for pointing out the woman is defending her Christian faith because that is what she is doing.
