The true message in Islam is peaceful coexistence between Jews Christians and Muslims as People of the Book.
Anyone who is not living up to that is following Antichrist just as the extreme Jihadists or Armaggeddonists.
Those are the Antichrist extremists abusing Islam and Christianity beyond recognition by other Muslims or Christians.
The truly peaceful Muslims and Jews receive and accept, include and do not reject Christianity.
That's how you can know the true believers. They are one in Christ Jesus, if under scriptural authority, or Restorative Justice if secular gentile under natural laws. This spirit unifies all people of all tribes, and does not discriminate by creed. You can be of any faith background or none at all, and be one in the spirit of Restorative Justice that includes and respects people of all other backgrounds regardless of creed or affiliation, religious political or secular.
You have no idea what islam teaches. I've posted a link to a book that explains the life of muhammed and his teachings. You cannot understand islam without first understanding it's founder.
Here it is again. Read it, and educate yourself.
The Story of Mohammed About This Book
Dear
Mr.Right
I understand that Mohammad fought religious wars for political conquest of land to build an empire.
Then turned around and taught peace. Which has been criticized as enslaving Jews and Christians as forced followers instead of really embracing true Christianity and acknowledging the liberating grace and salvation in Christ Jesus.
I understand this background, similar to how America started with genocide of Native Americans to conquer and colonize the land. Then the slave trade of Irish, Blacks, Chinese for railroad labor, and now Mexican and foreign labor to build corporate power.
Does the corporate corruption of America mean to dismiss the Constitution which can still be fulfilled to create equal justice for all people?
That's fine if you want to dismiss the ideals in Islam, based on the political abuses of it for the opposite.
Same with Christianity.
Same with Constitutionalism.
All have fallen short. None of these systems save us, and all have been abused for political conquest.
Given this, how can we as Christian and Constitutional believers in equal justice
use the laws correctly to unite all people of all tribes for common goals of truth justice and peace.
the same laws abused for greed and political oppression to control others
can be used to organize and uplift people group by group.
I agree with you that nobody should follow the antichrist spirit in the history
of Islam, Christianity or even Constitutional traditions abused to enslave others.
What I am asking is to empower leaders in all these groups to unite and use
the best principles and traditions we agree on, from all these ways, and teach those consistently.
The Muslims I know such as Carroll who has won peace and justice awards for his work in
Constitutional outreach ARE compatible and living by Christian and Constitutional principles.
There is no conflict there. So this is the way to overcome the political abuses.
it is using agreement with Christians and Constitutionalists. This includes Muslims as well.
you don't have to reject Muslims to establish the justice promised in Christianity and constitutional laws.
in fact, given the liberal Democrat rift against Christians and conservatives,
the Muslims who are Constitutionalists are the best bet to lead the Democrats to embrace the Constitution.
the Muslims I have met in the peace and justice progressive communities are open to working with others.
so this can stop the liberal rejection of Constitutionalists on the right that can bridge the political divide.
these are not enemies but some of the best allies we have to reunite the nation around the Constitution
Let me guess. You didn't read what I posted. Those peaceful Muslims you mentioned are not really muslims. They do not follow the teachings of muhammed. Islam is evil. Read the book and learn the truth.
Hi
Mr.Right I get what you are saying about the evils of Jihadism; my bf has personally interviewed Walid Shoebat multiple times on radio. That is clearly evil. What I am talking about are the people who are Muslim as their family background and culture, similar to Hindus brought up Hindu or Buddhists brought up Buddhist. It is not inherently evil if you do not teach it that way, but in the spirit of unity with all other people.
The same Bible can guide Quakers to make peace in times of war and have nothing to do with the people like Hitler and his camps that killed people thinking they were following God's will by the Bible.
The same Constitution can justify slavery as justify abolishing it.
These two camps are like night and day.
The same science that can be used to save lives with more efficient energy can be used to destroy humanity with nuclear bombs.
Mr.Right I am even used to my friends telling me "I'm not a real Democrat" because I enforce Constitutional laws above party. It is a big task to correct all the wrongs done by Democrats that were unconstitutional abuses of govt.
same with the Christians trying to rebuke abuses by enforcing the real meaning and message in the Bible
and even more so with Jews and Muslims who are trying to correct and teach their tribes in line with God's laws that include and align with Christianity.
These are the real prophets and teachers.
You are right Mr.Right that anyone teaching false things, anyone rejecting what Jesus and Christianity mean instead of teaching the message correctly, are false.
There are lots of false dangerous teachings mixing Islam with govt oppression because of lack of Constitutional knowledge.
Since the Constitutional laws are based on natural laws from God, then Islam is supposed to include all these laws sent by God.
So that is how I define the true believers in God, where the truth would include correct and reconcile with all true laws.
There is no way that the military warfare during that period of history where Mohammad set up his empire is sustainable teaching.
The true teachings are closer to how the Bahai and Sufi Muslims teach in a spiritually inclusive and universal way.
You can call that "not true Muslims" but what you mean is it isn't the violent political conquest in the past.
And neither are Constitutionalists today supposed to be defending slavery as the basis of building the economy.
that is in the past, but is not in the future.
Islam also heads toward peace.
Christianity is the key to leading to peace.
both the church and state and all tribes will be led to peace.
This is led by Christ, and the true believers including in Islam recognize Christ and do not reject or divide politically.
I happen to know Jews who receive and believe in Christ and remain Jewish.
And I know Muslims and secular gentiles who join in justice and peace in the same spirit of Christians.
I know way too many Muslims who believe in justice and enforcing constitutional due process and equal protections.
You can all them what you want, but if they call themselves Muslim then I recognize them as that.
Like the Jewish, it is a cultural identity, so these are real Muslims but have political differences like anyone else.
And just like in Christianity, there are fundamental Christians who will even disown their own members,
and say the Universalist Christians are "not real Christians" but teaching something else. of course Islam has that, too.
