WHY DO SOME MUSLIMS MURDER IN THE NAME OF ALLAH?

Discussed by Victor Sharpe
with Renew America (www.renewamerica.com)

Part 1 o 3

Mahatma Gandhi once stated: “While Hindus, Sikhs, Christians, Parsees and Jews, along with several million adherents of an animistic religion, all coexisted in relative harmony, one religion that would not accept compromise stood out from the rest: Islam.”

Victor Sharpe, with Renew America, has written on this and many other subjects. His latest piece, “Why do some Muslims Murder in the Name of Allah?”, can be found here.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Why do some Muslims murder in the name of Allah?

Have Muslims “always” murdered in the name of Allah?

What is Wahhabism? What are Shiites?

What is the “Resurgence of Islamic Triumphalism”? How does this make the religion of Islam different than Christianity?

PART 2 OF 3 - WHY DO SOME MUSLIMS MURDER IN THE NAME OF ALLAH?

Discussed by Victor Sharpe
with Renew America (www.renewamerica.com)

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Do Muslim leaders and clerics preach death to the Jew, the Christian, and to the non-believer?

Is this being “preached” all across the world – even in America?

FACT: Victor discusses “no-go areas” in England where non-Muslims are discouraged from entering; many are even afraid to go near the Tower of London! Even the POLICE do not enter some of these places! This makes my heart so sad…

Is the jihadist promised paradise for killing “unbelievers”?

Have Muslim leaders and clerics denounced passages in the Qur’an that speak of killing “unbelievers”?

PART 3 OF 3 - WHY DO SOME MUSLIMS MURDER IN THE NAME OF ALLAH?

Discussed by Victor Sharpe
with Renew America (www.renewamerica.com)

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Some direct quotes from the Qur’an:
“Kill the unbelievers wherever you find them.” Qur’an 2:191
“When opportunity arises, kill the infidels wherever you catch them.” Qur’an 9:5
“Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water; melt their skin and bellies.” Qur’an 22:19
“Terrorize and behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Qur’an.” Qur’an 8:12

Are these and other horrific “verses” being drilled into young children all across the world?

Is Islam unchangeable?

What is the difference between “hard Islam” and “soft Islam”? Is the ultimate goal the same?

Does America have a plan for “world domination”? This is obviously a rhetorical question, but it needs to be asked. Victor says this: “I feel privileged to be here {America}. What grieves me greatly is to see so many Americans who were born here taking it for granted and so often trashing their own Constitution and their own nation.”

What can we do to protect ourselves, our children, and their children?

Are the prayers to Allah the same as prayers to God? HINT: Nope!

If you have a prayer request, need Scripture encouragement, or would like a copy of Mark’s lessons each week, email wantmore@biblical-literacy.org

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

OBJECTION: IS GOD UNJUST? (Romans 9:14-18)

Is hate a 4-letter word? (Genesis 29:31; Luke 14:26)

Where did Paul get the idea that God is just? (Exodus 33:19; Exodus 9:16; Exodus 8:15)

POINTS FOR HOME

God is a promise keeper.

Praise God from whom all mercy flow.

It’s okay to have questions, but mind your posture.

EXTRA TOPIC QUESTION

Are you Team Jacob or Team Esau? Were they born to be elected to historical roles as nations or to bring salvation – or both?

THE PATTERN OF PRAYER PART 2

Discussed by Pastor Randy Steele

Day 5

Pastor Jarrett Stephens began a new sermon series last week entitled: Pray Like Jesus.

In this series, everyone can learn something new about the prayer life of Jesus: his pattern of daily dependence, his prayers for others, his surrender in suffering, and his unwavering trust in the Father.

This week, Pastor Jarrett continues to break down The Lord’s Prayer with four more petitions from Jesus to his Father. He went over the first three last week, so if you missed one of those segments – check out the archives on our home page.
