I was informed through another forum: "For those of you who may be living in the Tidewater area in Virginia, specifically Chesapeake, the Muslims in that area have begun an aggressive outreach by visiting local Sunday Schools. They are handing out "tracts" and sitting in on the studies. They are not disruptive. They are trying to get people to come to their meetings in an attempt to bring us all together. Unfortunately that cannot happen unless they are willing to admit that Jesus died and rose from the dead and no one can come to the Father except through Him.
Please pray that the Christians can turn these visits into constructive opportunities to witness to these lost souls."
What a magnificent opportunity! Unprecedented in this day and age. Not only being able to reciprocate by handing tracts back to the Muslims who passed theirs out, but by having done so Muslims have opened the door to Christians joining them in their mosque, and passing out tracts to the Muslims worshiping there! I urge the Christians in those churches to reciprocate with tracts from "Islam and the Truth.com"
Particularly regarding the whole subject of the Gospel with a little Islam intro:
The Crucifixion of Jesus Christ in Prophecy

http://www.iicouncil.org/default.aspx?pid=49938&nid=36964Here we find a group wishing there were an equivalence, between the one true God of the Jews and Christians name YHWH, as revealed through all of His prophets and witnesses, that His people have followed through two covenants for 3500 years.....
.....and a god in the name of a pagan Arabian deity named "Allah", followed by members of a cult through a single 7th century false prophet from the SW Arabian desert, who lived 1200 kilometers from THE Holy Land of the prophets and patriarchs, who proclaimed the EXACT OPPOSITE of the WHOLE SUBJECT of the Gospel. Prostrating themselves five times a day toward the very same black stone idol that the Quraish pagans venerated long before Muhammad continued the tradition. Even traveling to that idol and engaging in thinly veneered pagan Arabian moon, sun, star and jinn devil worship rituals.
http://petewaldo.com/hajj_umrah.htmSome Christians, this author included, recognize Jews as my brethren and understand that they may not view me as the same, because scripture may indicate that some Jews may remain blind to the Gospel by an act of God, so they can't sin against it. Please review the page at this link on this "spirit of slumber":
http://israelinbibleprophecy.com/spirit_of_slumber.htmChristians are commanded to love our enemies:
Matthew 5:44
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;As Don Richardson reports regarding Jews in "Secrets of the Koran", "By Muhammad's day, 1,500 years had passed since any Hebrew prophet was described in the Old Testament as using a sword in the service of God. Neither Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Micah, Amos, Malachi nor any other later Hebrew prophet is described as using the sword or prescribing its use."
Nor do our Old Testament scriptures command Jews specifically to deny the Son of God and reject His shed blood as articles of their faith in YHWH. Indeed many Jews are brought into relationship with Christ through prophecy of His crucifixion in the Psalms and in Isaiah.
http://www.islamandthetruth.com/psalms_22.htmhttp://www.islamandthetruth.com/isaiah_53.htmSurah 4:157
That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:-Muhammad always the exact opposite, the followers of the false prophet Muhammad are commanded to conquer all kingdoms and subjugate all people, to denying the Son of God and rejecting His saving shed blood:
Bukhari, V1 B2 #24
Narrated Ibn 'Umar: Allah's Apostle said: "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform a that, then they save their lives an property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah."Of course a filthy blasphemy for a Christian to "testify" to.
Surah 9.29
Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. 30 The Jews call 'Uzair a son of Allah, and the Christians call Christ the son of Allah. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the Truth!This Second Islamic Jihad in the image of the First Islamic Jihad near conquest of the whole known world, before being stopped in Tours France.
http://www.beholdthebeast.com/#jihadQuran Sura 9.111
Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain: a promise binding on Him in truth, through the Law, the Gospel, and the Qur'an: and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah. then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded: that is the achievement supreme.A satanic lie regarding the Gospel binding fighting and slaying on anyone, but a "promise" that is "binding" on the followers of the false prophet Muhammad through the Quran.
Muhammad's followers follow Muhammad alone. Far beyond folly it is a blasphemous satanic exercise to attempt to marry an antichrist, Satan inspired false prophet and the only anti-a-specific-religion cult on earth - with Judeo-Christianity. With the very religion of which Muhammad proclaimed the exact opposite of its whole subject. Indeed not a stretch to suggest the whole subject of all the scriptures. The only promise made regarding the seed of Ishmael is that they would be numerous.
Romans 9:7
Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, [are they] all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. 8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these [are] not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. 9 For this [is] the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sara shall have a son. If there are any that believe themselves to be Christians, included in such a blasphemous abomination (and based on the materials it looks like little more than Islamic subterfuge and taqiyyah since they even mention the fiction of "Hanaf"), they are either ignorant to the Gospel or are hereby put on notice this goes far beyond ecumenism and even beyond religious pluralism. You are trying to marry Satan with the Gospel. Let alone the absurdity that there is not a shred of scriptural, historical, archaeological or geographical evidence that suggests, that Mecca ever even existed before the 4th century AD. This makes Muhammadanism a provable preposterous fraud. Followers of an invention of the 7th century AD that was further embellished in writings that date into the 10th century AD. Islamic - what can only be called "tradition" - that was all created from thin air in the 7th to 10th centuries AD, without reference to any actual historical record that preceded the 6th century AD.
http://www.beholdthebeast.com/#jihadDancing around the very thing we are called to preach: 1Cr 1:23
But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;Instead of preaching Christ crucified, they are actually applying the term "submission" to the Gospel. When the very name "Islam" means "submission"! Christianity is about a relationship with our Creator. With our Lord and Savior.
Anything in their material about what that relationship is all about, which is through faith in the WHOLE SUBJECT of the Gospel, through faith in the saving grace from the shed blood of the Messiah?
Matthew 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
Any warnings for the false prophet Muhammad's followers?
Hbr 10:29
Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?No surprise they did not cite from the hundreds of verses that declare the Son of God and His Father. Another Islamic opposite.
1Jo 4:15
Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.Any person that had thought himself to be a Christian engaged in this sort of subterfuge, is only helping those sorely deluded folks remain on their path, to what scripture indicates is their destruction.
Jhn 3:36
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.And for those that would engage in such as supporting the false prophet:
Rev 3:15
I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.By ignoring that WHOLE SUBJECT of the Gospel, and pretending the false prophet Muhammad is anything but the EXACT OPPOSITE, they may well be putting themselves on far beyond thin ice:
Mat 7:22
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. What kind of Christian could do such a thing? I could use some help in taking their stuff apart in the following posts, so that if anyone happens along here, that has fallen for their deception, we can help them see it is exactly that.
