1 00:00:00,410 --> 00:00:04,970 Now in Galatians Chapter 1 of course we have the passage that warns about those who come 2 00:00:04,970 --> 00:00:08,710 preaching another gospel. The bible reads in verse number 6: 3 00:00:08,710 --> 00:00:14,990 “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ 4 00:00:14,990 --> 00:00:16,270 unto another gospel.” 5 00:00:16,270 --> 00:00:22,160 Now notice that this other gospel is contrasted with the grace of Christ. You see, the true 6 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:28,609 gospel has to do with salvation through the grace of Christ. It’s salvation by grace 7 00:00:28,609 --> 00:00:34,460 through faith, not of works lest any man should boast. The bible says in verse 7: 8 00:00:34,460 --> 00:00:38,870 Which is not another, (Saying it’s not a completely different gospel) but there be 9 00:00:38,870 --> 00:00:42,930 some that trouble you and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 10 00:00:42,930 --> 00:00:47,920 So it contains elements of the gospel of Christ but it’s been twisted, it’s been perverted. 11 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:53,789 It says in verse 8but though we or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel unto you 12 00:00:53,789 --> 00:00:58,890 than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before so 13 00:00:58,890 --> 00:01:05,150 say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, 14 00:01:05,150 --> 00:01:07,050 let him be accursed. 15 00:01:07,050 --> 00:01:12,330 Now this is very strongly warning against those who would bring another gospel, he repeats 16 00:01:12,330 --> 00:01:18,070 himself for emphasis, and he’s so clear on this. He says LOOK, even if it’s WE who 17 00:01:18,070 --> 00:01:22,010 bring another gospel. Even if I come and tell you “hey I changed my mind It’s another 18 00:01:22,010 --> 00:01:26,730 gospel,” don’t listen to ME he said. There is no other gospel, there’s one gospel, 19 00:01:26,730 --> 00:01:31,960 one way to be saved, and it’s through the grace of Jesus Christ. He says, “an angel 20 00:01:31,960 --> 00:01:39,570 from heaven” shows up with another gospel, anybody who preaches another gospel, any angel 21 00:01:39,570 --> 00:01:42,740 who comes preaching another gospel “let him be accursed.” 22 00:01:42,740 --> 00:01:50,790 You see there are fallen angels; there are false teachers who are inspired by these evil 23 00:01:50,790 --> 00:01:57,010 fallen angels. Demons are what we would call them. Both Mohammed and Joseph Smith fall 24 00:01:57,010 --> 00:02:04,060 into this category and I believe that the prophecy in Galatians 1 is prophetic of these 25 00:02:04,060 --> 00:02:12,650 two men. They claim that they got these revelations from an angel that contains another gospel. 26 00:02:12,650 --> 00:02:19,060 Now the title of my sermon tonight is ISLAM IN LIGHT OF THE BIBLE. I did a sermon on Hinduism 27 00:02:19,060 --> 00:02:24,030 in light of the Bible, and Buddhism in light of the Bible. While covering the eastern religions 28 00:02:24,030 --> 00:02:31,350 I want to cover Islam in light of the Bible. Now let me just start out by showing you that 29 00:02:31,350 --> 00:02:37,680 Islam teaches another Gospel. This book right here is the Quran; this is the holy book of 30 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:42,800 Islam. I’ll talk a little more about this in a moment. You don’t have to get very 31 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:50,330 far in this book before it teaches another gospel. In this edition it’s on page 2. 32 00:02:50,330 --> 00:02:57,820 Now let me just tell you what the word “gospel” means. The Bible says in Luke chapter 4: 33 00:02:57,820 --> 00:03:03,000 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to 34 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:08,410 the poor. That is a quote from Isaiah 61 where it says that the Spirit of the Lord God is 35 00:03:08,410 --> 00:03:14,340 upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings to the meek. All throughout 36 00:03:14,340 --> 00:03:20,620 the Bible you’ll see these terms interchange. We would say “good news” in our modern 37 00:03:20,620 --> 00:03:34,390 vernacular. Salvation through Jesus Christ is the good news! Jesus paid it all, salvation 38 00:03:34,390 --> 00:03:39,959 is a free gift that is attained by faith alone, not by any works of righteousness which we 39 00:03:39,959 --> 00:03:45,660 have done. Now in 1 Corinthians 15 the bible talks about the gospel it says in verse 1: 40 00:03:45,660 --> 00:03:50,370 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also 41 00:03:50,370 --> 00:03:56,610 ye received, and wherein ye stand; by which also ye are saved, (So Ye are saved by the 42 00:03:56,610 --> 00:04:02,330 gospel!) If ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 43 00:04:02,330 --> 00:04:06,599 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died 44 00:04:06,599 --> 00:04:10,920 for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again 45 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:17,579 the third day according to the scriptures… This gospel of the grace of Christ is that 46 00:04:17,579 --> 00:04:23,830 salvation is by grace through faith in the death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, 47 00:04:23,830 --> 00:04:28,080 that’s how we’re saved. Not by earning our way to heaven, or keeping the commandments. 48 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:36,870 The whole book of Galatians nails that down. It’s by the hearing of faith and belief 49 00:04:36,870 --> 00:04:40,419 in our heart that Jesus Christ rose from that dead that we’re saved. 50 00:04:40,419 --> 00:04:45,419 Now at the beginning of this book, you don’t have to get very far, on page 2 chapter 2 51 00:04:45,419 --> 00:04:56,280 (this book is broken up by chapters called Sura’s) it says around verse 25 “and proclaim 52 00:04:56,280 --> 00:05:02,530 joyful tidings.” Does that sound like good tidings to you? This is their gospel… “And 53 00:05:02,530 --> 00:05:10,350 proclaim joyful tidings to those that believe AND do good works. They shall dwell in gardens 54 00:05:10,350 --> 00:05:15,190 watered by running brooks. Whenever they are given fruit to eat they will say, ‘this 55 00:05:15,190 --> 00:05:20,340 is what we used to eat before’, for they shall be given the light. Wedded to chase 56 00:05:20,340 --> 00:05:24,800 spouses, they shall abide therein forever.” 57 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:31,510 So here the promise of paradise and the virgins in heaven is given to those who believe and 58 00:05:31,510 --> 00:05:36,260 do good works. Now the gospel of the grace of Christ is that salvation is of faith NOT 59 00:05:36,260 --> 00:05:43,980 OF WORKS, LEST ANY MAN SHOULD BOAST. No man can boast before God because he has faith 60 00:05:43,980 --> 00:05:48,210 and works, the Bible teaches that salvation is by faith alone. But to him that worketh 61 00:05:48,210 --> 00:05:55,120 not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly his faith is counted for righteousness 62 00:05:55,120 --> 00:06:00,240 even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man unto whom God imputeth righteousness 63 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:06,150 without works saying ‘blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven and whose sins are 64 00:06:06,150 --> 00:06:11,050 covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.’ That’s the gospel 65 00:06:11,050 --> 00:06:15,210 of Jesus Christ. Islam has another gospel that says believe and do good works. 66 00:06:15,210 --> 00:06:23,229 Now not only that but if you read through this book the phrase believe and do good works 67 00:06:23,229 --> 00:06:32,900 is used scores of times. Not only that, but in this book hell is mentioned on almost every 68 00:06:32,900 --> 00:06:41,380 page of this book. If you don’t do this, you’re going to hell, if you don’t do 69 00:06:41,380 --> 00:06:45,490 that you’re going to hell. It’ll say if you don’t believe you’re going to hell 70 00:06:45,490 --> 00:06:55,070 but also other stuff as well. It’s not just salvation just by believing in Jesus. It’s 71 00:06:55,070 --> 00:07:00,320 by believing and doing good works that saves you according to the Quran. It’s not enough 72 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:07,430 just to believe. They have five pillars. They pray 5 times a day, making a pilgrimage to 73 00:07:07,430 --> 00:07:19,250 Mecca to bow down to the Game Cube there to earn salvation. It’s another gospel my friend. 74 00:07:19,250 --> 00:07:25,110 Before I get into some of the false doctrines taught in the Quran, let me give you a basic 75 00:07:25,110 --> 00:07:29,550 understanding of who Mohammed is and where the Quran came from. 76 00:07:29,550 --> 00:07:42,120 Mohammed is a prophet who lived 13-1400 years ago. So this is 6-7 hundred years after Christ. 77 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:49,340 Mohammed was a guy who lived in Arabia and was illiterate, he could not read or write. 78 00:07:49,340 --> 00:07:58,350 When he was 40 years old he began to reveal the Quran. He would go out to a cave and pray 79 00:07:58,350 --> 00:08:07,820 and meditate there and the angel Gabriel supposedly appeared unto him and grabbed hold of him 80 00:08:07,820 --> 00:08:16,690 and said “RECITE!” And he said “I am not a reciter” Then the angel squeezed him 81 00:08:16,690 --> 00:08:27,050 so hard that he could almost not take it anymore. I don’t know if it was a bear hug or grabbed 82 00:08:27,050 --> 00:08:32,699 by the throat but then the angel released him and said again “recite.” Mohammed 83 00:08:32,699 --> 00:08:40,490 said “I’m not a reciter.” This happens several times until the angel puts all these 84 00:08:40,490 --> 00:08:44,839 words in his mouth and tells him that he is going to be a messenger of God and he’s 85 00:08:44,839 --> 00:08:53,220 going to bring this message of the word of God. So then he recites these things that 86 00:08:53,220 --> 00:08:55,800 the angel tells him. 87 00:08:55,800 --> 00:09:01,879 At the time he said that he thought that he might have been demon possessed. That was 88 00:09:01,879 --> 00:09:08,769 his first concern; he was worried that he was possessed of a devil. But then he started 89 00:09:08,769 --> 00:09:14,699 to realize that this was the word of God and he got these confirmations that this is actually 90 00:09:14,699 --> 00:09:17,759 the word of God and that this really was the angel Gabriel. 91 00:09:17,759 --> 00:09:25,399 So what the Quran is, it’s the oral sayings of Mohammed, because he would keep adding 92 00:09:25,399 --> 00:09:31,839 to it and he had it all memorized. He’s not a guy who reads or writes so it’s all 93 00:09:31,839 --> 00:09:36,709 just in his mind. He would tell people, hey I’ve got another chapter of the Quran and 94 00:09:36,709 --> 00:09:41,629 he would speak it unto them and they would learn it by heart. Then people also did write 95 00:09:41,629 --> 00:09:49,089 it down and circulate it. It was something he had in his mind and even today many Muslims 96 00:09:49,089 --> 00:09:56,100 will memorize the entire Quran. It’s not as long as the Bible. They’ll sing it as 97 00:09:56,100 --> 00:10:02,939 a way to remember the whole thing. So that’s how it was transmitted. And Muslims believe 98 00:10:02,939 --> 00:10:08,819 that the greatest evidence for the fact that Mohammed was a true prophet is the Quran itself. 99 00:10:08,819 --> 00:10:12,899 As much as we would point to the Bible and say, “look at this magnificent book!” 100 00:10:12,899 --> 00:10:18,399 Here’s the thing about the Quran, it’s not a magnificent book at all. You only have 101 00:10:18,399 --> 00:10:25,860 to read a few pages to see how inferior it is to the Word of God. Just from looking into 102 00:10:25,860 --> 00:10:31,209 this book, what Texe Marrs said at the end of MARCHING TO ZION is the truest words ever 103 00:10:31,209 --> 00:10:36,929 spoken. “When people read the Quran, and then read the new Testament they must come 104 00:10:36,929 --> 00:10:45,300 to the conclusion that Jesus is Lord. There is no comparison between these two books.” 105 00:10:45,300 --> 00:10:51,689 The quality of this book is simply much lower, and it is clearly a man-made concoction. So 106 00:10:51,689 --> 00:10:55,509 if this is the biggest evidence they have I’m not impressed. Let’s look at some 107 00:10:55,509 --> 00:11:01,709 of the false doctrines that are found in this most holy book of Islam. The book that is 108 00:11:01,709 --> 00:11:06,149 the foundation of what they believe. They believe this is the very word of God! They 109 00:11:06,149 --> 00:11:10,819 believe it trumps the Bible, that it trumps anything! This is the final authority. Let’s 110 00:11:10,819 --> 00:11:16,559 look at just some of the false doctrine besides that it teaches another gospel. 111 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:22,579 Right at the very beginning of the book, just a few pages in it says in Chapter 2 verse 112 00:11:22,579 --> 00:11:31,809 34 “And when we said to the angels, prostrate yourself before Adam, they all prostrated 113 00:11:31,809 --> 00:11:37,720 themselves except Satan who in his pride refused and became an unbeliever.” So here the sin 114 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:44,040 of Satan is not to bow down and worship Adam. Now where in the Bible does it ever teach 115 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:49,739 that anyone should worship Adam? That any angel was commanded to bow down and worship 116 00:11:49,739 --> 00:11:55,379 him? That is a strange false doctrine. The Bible says “thou shalt worship the LORD 117 00:11:55,379 --> 00:12:01,989 thy God and him only shalt thou serve.” Isn’t it amazing that the Muslims will try 118 00:12:01,989 --> 00:12:06,889 and criticize us for worshipping the Lord Jesus Christ who is God in the flesh? But 119 00:12:06,889 --> 00:12:13,189 they are teaching the worship of Adam and that that was Satan’s sin? Now this is another 120 00:12:13,189 --> 00:12:20,749 similarity with Mormonism. The Prophet Brigham Young (the second prophet of Mormonism) he 121 00:12:20,749 --> 00:12:26,179 stated that Adam was God. Now the Mormons don’t believe that any more but that is 122 00:12:26,179 --> 00:12:36,910 what Brigham Young taught. This is a bizarre strange doctrine. It’s a similar thing that’s 123 00:12:36,910 --> 00:12:43,399 being taught here, why would anyone be told you need to worship Adam, to bow down to Adam? 124 00:12:43,399 --> 00:12:45,230 It doesn’t make sense. 125 00:12:45,230 --> 00:12:55,790 It’s also interesting that in Chapter 2 verse 54 it says “We gave Moses the book 126 00:12:55,790 --> 00:13:00,540 and salvation so that you might be rightly guided.” So all throughout this book it 127 00:13:00,540 --> 00:13:07,149 claims that the books of Moses are the Word of God. In fact it affirms both Old Testament 128 00:13:07,149 --> 00:13:15,869 and the teachings of Jesus. Yet the teachings of this book dramatically contradict the teachings 129 00:13:15,869 --> 00:13:26,129 of the Law of Moses and Jesus. The book still claims to be a continuation of the same thing. 130 00:13:26,129 --> 00:13:31,410 In chapter 2 verse 97 it says “Gabriel, who has by God’s grace, has revealed to 131 00:13:31,410 --> 00:13:38,989 you the Quran as a guide and joyful tidings for the faithful CONFIRMING previous scriptures.” 132 00:13:38,989 --> 00:13:46,459 Did you hear that? Scriptures means writings! It says in 2 verse 87 “To Moses we gave 133 00:13:46,459 --> 00:13:51,429 the book, and after we sent other Apostles, we gave Jesus the Son of Mary.” So over 134 00:13:51,429 --> 00:13:55,109 and over it says the same thing. Verse 91 says “If they are told believe in what God 135 00:13:55,109 --> 00:14:00,519 has revealed, they reply, we believe in what was revealed to us, and they deny what has 136 00:14:00,519 --> 00:14:05,149 been since revealed, although it is the truth, corroborating their own scriptures.” So 137 00:14:05,149 --> 00:14:10,970 according to the Quran, the Quran is supposed to corroborate the Bible. The Quran is a continuation 138 00:14:10,970 --> 00:14:16,480 of the Bible. The Quran is not going to contradict the Bible, and yet it contradicts it in almost 139 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,850 ALL of its teachings. 140 00:14:18,850 --> 00:14:25,369 Let me give you some examples. Go to Deuteronomy chapter 24. Let’s see if this book is a 141 00:14:25,369 --> 00:14:34,600 confirmation and corroboration of what was given in the Bible. We’re only going to 142 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:39,429 scratch the surface, and see the beginning of the book, and see all the false doctrine 143 00:14:39,429 --> 00:14:46,179 and all the places that it contradicts the Bible, the Word of God. I’m going to read 144 00:14:46,179 --> 00:14:53,059 for you from the Quran here, and show you how it contradicts what the Word of God teaches. 145 00:14:53,059 --> 00:15:00,209 In Chapter 2 of the Quran, Chapter 1 is just a short introduction, and we’re in chapter 146 00:15:00,209 --> 00:15:08,119 2 (it’s call the Cow). Everything I’m giving you is from the Cow. This is the first 147 00:15:08,119 --> 00:15:25,949 main chapter. It’s all coming from the Cow folks. So we’re in chapter 2 while you’re 148 00:15:25,949 --> 00:15:46,389 going to Deut 24. (no chapter 3 is not Pork, they don’t do pork). 149 00:15:46,389 --> 00:15:59,350 In verse 230 in the Cow chapter it says about divorce “when you have renounced your wives, 150 00:15:59,350 --> 00:16:06,859 and they have reached the end of their waiting period, do not prevent from remarrying their 151 00:16:06,859 --> 00:16:16,119 husbands if they have come to an honorable agreement. If a man divorces his wife, he 152 00:16:16,119 --> 00:16:24,609 shall not remarry her until she have wedded another man and been divorced by him.” Did 153 00:16:24,609 --> 00:16:33,439 you hear that? Let this sink in, first of all Islam is okay with Polygamy and Divorce. 154 00:16:33,439 --> 00:16:43,809 Here it says, if a man divorces his wife he shall not remarry her until she has wedded 155 00:16:43,809 --> 00:16:51,019 another man and been divorced by him! That is not what the Bible teaches! This is the 156 00:16:51,019 --> 00:16:59,970 law of Moses in Deut 24: When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass 157 00:16:59,970 --> 00:17:04,760 that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then 158 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,780 let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his 159 00:17:08,780 --> 00:17:12,780 house. And when she is departed out of his house, she may got and be another man’s 160 00:17:12,780 --> 00:17:16,949 wife. And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement, and giveth 161 00:17:16,949 --> 00:17:20,930 it in her hand, and sendeth he rout of his house; or if the latter husband die, which 162 00:17:20,930 --> 00:17:26,990 took her to be his wife; her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again 163 00:17:26,990 --> 00:17:32,450 to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before the LORD: and 164 00:17:32,450 --> 00:17:37,080 thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance. 165 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:44,080 So what’s the Bible teaching? That it is permissive to divorce your wife only if you 166 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:49,540 find some uncleanness in her. This is what Jesus said when he said that no man can put 167 00:17:49,540 --> 00:17:59,390 away his wife except for fornication. Notice he didn’t say for adultery, but for fornication. 168 00:17:59,390 --> 00:18:04,460 Fornication is that which takes place before marriage. Adultery is that which takes place 169 00:18:04,460 --> 00:18:15,330 after marriage if you break marriage vows. In the Old Testament in Deut 22 this is also 170 00:18:15,330 --> 00:18:22,110 covered where it says that a man who believes that he is marrying a virgin and then goes 171 00:18:22,110 --> 00:18:27,070 in unto her and finds her not to be a maid at that point is allowed to put her away and 172 00:18:27,070 --> 00:18:31,060 write her a bill of divorcement and she may be married to another man. This isn’t talking 173 00:18:31,060 --> 00:18:34,770 about people who have been married for years and they aren’t compatible or someone is 174 00:18:34,770 --> 00:18:42,180 unfaithful. The Bible says that the Lord God hateth putting away. Jesus told the Pharisees 175 00:18:42,180 --> 00:18:47,070 that what God hath joined together let not man put asunder. If it’s done for any reason 176 00:18:47,070 --> 00:18:51,850 other than fornication you’re causing her to commit fornication, and if you marry a 177 00:18:51,850 --> 00:18:56,720 woman divorced you’re committing adultery, because at that time they were divorcing their 178 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:03,400 wives for any cause. They were divorcing them because they want to. Jesus said that’s 179 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:08,540 not what it was intended for. It was if he finds uncleanness. It doesn’t mean she didn’t 180 00:19:08,540 --> 00:19:16,100 take a bath, uncleanness throughout the Bible is referring to sin. It’s referring to sexual 181 00:19:16,100 --> 00:19:20,420 sin; it calls that uncleanness, whether it is fornication or whatever. So it’s saying 182 00:19:20,420 --> 00:19:25,560 that he goes in unto her and she finds no favor in his eyes because he finds uncleanness 183 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:29,730 in her and then he writes her a bill of divorcement and she may be married to another man. So 184 00:19:29,730 --> 00:19:36,570 before the consummation is made, that is said wait a minute I’m backing out. That’s 185 00:19:36,570 --> 00:19:40,880 what the Bible teaches. What it really does clearly teach is that if a man divorces his 186 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:51,180 wife, and she goes and marries someone else that he can never be remarried to her again. 187 00:19:51,180 --> 00:19:55,060 So how does this play out in our modern culture? Well today we have people getting divorced 188 00:19:55,060 --> 00:20:00,380 all the time don’t we? The Bible teaches that if a man and woman get divorced first 189 00:20:00,380 --> 00:20:06,370 it teaches that they should be reconciled. If neither of them gets remarried the best 190 00:20:06,370 --> 00:20:10,190 thing for them is that they be reconciled. The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 7: Let not 191 00:20:10,190 --> 00:20:13,690 the wife depart from her husband, but and if she depart let her remain unmarried, or 192 00:20:13,690 --> 00:20:21,290 be reconciled unto her husband. So the Bible teaches that ideally if a couple splits up 193 00:20:21,290 --> 00:20:26,890 the best thing that could happen is that they get remarried. I’ve seen it happen where 194 00:20:26,890 --> 00:20:32,180 couples get together and then get divorced and then they get back in church and hearing 195 00:20:32,180 --> 00:20:37,490 the preaching of God’s Word they understand the sin of being divorced and say “we need 196 00:20:37,490 --> 00:20:42,290 to get back together and be reconciled.” Then they are remarried and that is a blessed 197 00:20:42,290 --> 00:20:50,630 thing. But the Bible is real clear that once either divorced party married someone else 198 00:20:50,630 --> 00:20:56,950 that she may not come back and be the wife of the previous husband, the Bible says that 199 00:20:56,950 --> 00:21:02,160 is an abomination. So therefore if people are divorced and neither is remarried then 200 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:06,720 the hope is there for them to be reconciled. That would be God’s perfect will in that 201 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:12,820 situation, but if one of them gets remarried that can happen. 202 00:21:12,820 --> 00:21:20,330 What does the Quran teach? The Quran is bizarrely teaching that if they get divorced then they 203 00:21:20,330 --> 00:21:24,860 can’t get back together unless she marries someone else and they get divorced and then 204 00:21:24,860 --> 00:21:29,310 they can get back together. What in the world? Let me marry someone else really quickly and 205 00:21:29,310 --> 00:21:33,800 get this out of the way and then get divorced and we can get back together. It’s the opposite! 206 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:38,900 How can this be a confirmation of the Law of Moses when it teaches the opposite? But 207 00:21:38,900 --> 00:21:44,520 here’s what Muslims will conveniently do: Any time you point out one of these hundreds 208 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:49,130 of contradictions between the Quran and the words of Moses, or the Quran and the words 209 00:21:49,130 --> 00:21:57,150 of Jesus, here’s what they’ll say. “That’s been corrupted, that’s been tampered with.” 210 00:21:57,150 --> 00:22:02,550 So Mohammed says in the Quran that this is confirming previous scripture, and the Words 211 00:22:02,550 --> 00:22:07,750 of Moses, and the Words of Jesus and is riding on the coattails of Moses and Jesus. He wants 212 00:22:07,750 --> 00:22:13,380 to steal followers away from Moses and Jesus. When Muslims try to evangelize you that’s 213 00:22:13,380 --> 00:22:20,910 what they always try to do… “We love Jesus too, we believe in Jesus too!” They’ll 214 00:22:20,910 --> 00:22:26,110 say, “Let me tell you about Jesus in the Quran,” but when you pin them down on any 215 00:22:26,110 --> 00:22:29,410 of the teachings they say that the teachings have been corrupted according to them. You 216 00:22:29,410 --> 00:22:34,400 can point to hundreds of teachings and they’re all corrupted, they’ll say the Old Testament 217 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,700 has been corrupted; the words of Jesus have been corrupted, only the Quran is correct. 218 00:22:37,700 --> 00:22:45,130 So it claims to follow Moses and Jesus, but then discards the teachings and calls it all 219 00:22:45,130 --> 00:22:49,680 corrupt, says it’s all been changed. So has someone gone back and changed Deuteronomy 220 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:54,040 to say the opposite? So did it used to say what Mohammed said? That you’ve got to get 221 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:58,760 married to someone else and then get divorced again to get remarried to the original person? 222 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:04,740 No, because any logical person can look at what Moses says and say “That makes sense!” 223 00:23:04,740 --> 00:23:10,240 Then they look at the Quran and say “that doesn’t make sense!” So it’s pretty 224 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:16,700 clear which one is the corruption and which one is right. So there’s a direct contradiction. 225 00:23:16,700 --> 00:23:29,890 Not only that, but this book in the same section where it talks about Divorce, it teaches that 226 00:23:29,890 --> 00:23:42,700 Pedophilia is ok. Now first of all let me bring your attention to Mohammed himself. 227 00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:47,970 He was married to a woman named Kadesia. He was fist married to her for many years, and 228 00:23:47,970 --> 00:23:58,510 she was 15 years older than him. But then he ended up marrying his next wife (he married 229 00:23:58,510 --> 00:24:10,430 a couple wives) after the first wife died, he took more wives and the wife that God supposedly 230 00:24:10,430 --> 00:24:22,370 told him in a vision to take was a 6 year old. Her name was Aiesha. Keep in mind this 231 00:24:22,370 --> 00:24:31,770 is a man in his 50’s. Mohammed! You were right the first time! You got demon possessed 232 00:24:31,770 --> 00:24:39,240 in the cave! You should’ve gone with your gut. So the Angel of the LORD is supposedly 233 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:43,630 coming to him telling him you’re going to marry a 6 year old! He’s embarrassed to 234 00:24:43,630 --> 00:24:49,000 tell anyone. That doesn’t surprise me that he’s embarrassed to tell anyone. The way 235 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:54,750 it supposedly happened he was at home and the lady that was cleaning his house says 236 00:24:54,750 --> 00:25:01,190 to him “you should marry another wife since Kadesia is gone.” He says “Who should 237 00:25:01,190 --> 00:25:07,700 I marry?” And the woman says “Either this woman (she names another woman) or this 6 238 00:25:07,700 --> 00:25:22,210 year old Aiesha.” Mohammed says “I’ll marry both!” He ended up consummating the marriage at age 9. That is 239 00:25:22,210 --> 00:25:30,060 filthy! That is disgusting, perverted, that is PAEDOFILIA! So I thought to myself, Mohammed 240 00:25:30,060 --> 00:25:35,680 was clearly a Pedophile so there’s probably going to be something in there about Pedophilia. 241 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:41,710 I literally just opened the Quran and went to the table of contents and then the section 242 00:25:41,710 --> 00:25:50,270 on Divorce. When going to look at that section I noticed it says there’s a waiting period 243 00:25:50,270 --> 00:26:00,760 before Divorce, sort of like California which has a cool down period of 3 months. It’s 244 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:08,780 three of a woman’s cycles in the Quran. So what if your wife is older and it ceaseth 245 00:26:08,780 --> 00:26:13,820 to be with her after the manner of women as the Bible says? This is the Bible’s Euphemism. 246 00:26:13,820 --> 00:26:21,830 Mohammed says “well just go with three calendar months OR the same shall apply to those who 247 00:26:21,830 --> 00:26:30,500 have NOT YET MENSTRUATED.” Why are you married to a wife that has not yet menstruated? There’s 248 00:26:30,500 --> 00:26:37,690 a footnote at the bottom of the page that says: On account of their young age, child 249 00:26:37,690 --> 00:26:43,770 marriages were common. Yea, they were common amongst PERVERTS! I don’t care how common 250 00:26:43,770 --> 00:26:51,300 that was in Arabia amongst pagans and perverts. All that Mohammed did was grow up in a wicked 251 00:26:51,300 --> 00:26:57,730 place where a bunch of pagans were worshipping idols and false gods and he came up with a 252 00:26:57,730 --> 00:27:04,170 new religion that said there was only one god, and Mohammed is his prophet but he retained 253 00:27:04,170 --> 00:27:10,870 all of this pagan garbage just because people around him supposedly condoned it. Even if 254 00:27:10,870 --> 00:27:16,270 that’s really true, that’s just what Muslims will claim. If they condoned it then they 255 00:27:16,270 --> 00:27:23,650 were a bunch of perverts! That’s disgusting, wicked, and not something the Bible teaches. 256 00:27:23,650 --> 00:27:25,330 In fact the Bible contradicts this. 257 00:27:25,330 --> 00:27:34,540 Go to 1 Corinthians chapter 7. The Bible has all the answers, and the Bible condemns Pedophilia. 258 00:27:34,540 --> 00:27:46,320 The Quran says, hey if they haven’t had their cycles here’s how you divorce them. 259 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:50,710 That’s weird that you’re married to someone that hasn’t even had their cycles yet, that 260 00:27:50,710 --> 00:27:59,770 is a false doctrine. Look what the Bible says in chapter 7 verse 36: “But if any man think 261 00:27:59,770 --> 00:28:07,950 that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, 262 00:28:07,950 --> 00:28:12,410 and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.” So you 263 00:28:12,410 --> 00:28:18,150 see how the Bible stipulates here that before they get married that the girl must pass the 264 00:28:18,150 --> 00:28:27,250 flower of her age. Now the Bible defines that clearly in Leviticus 15 where it says that 265 00:28:27,250 --> 00:28:36,190 the “flowers” describe the manner of women. In Leviticus 15:24 the Bible says: “And 266 00:28:36,190 --> 00:28:41,270 if a man lie with her at all, and her flowers be upon him, he shall be unclean seven days; 267 00:28:41,270 --> 00:28:44,180 and all the bed thereon he lieth shall be unclean. In verse 32 it also says “And of 268 00:28:44,180 --> 00:28:49,860 her that is sick of her flowers” it talks about that being an issue of blood coming 269 00:28:49,860 --> 00:28:54,150 forth. Think about the word Flower. We think of it about something that grows outside on 270 00:28:54,150 --> 00:29:02,830 a plant, but in older language, think about something FLOWING. F L O W. That is what this 271 00:29:02,830 --> 00:29:08,880 is saying. It says that she has to pass the flower of her age and that is a reference 272 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:16,809 to the fact that she has to be of age, physically mature, as a woman able to conceive seed before 273 00:29:16,809 --> 00:29:21,770 she can get married. So getting married to 6 year olds, nine year olds? That’s for 274 00:29:21,770 --> 00:29:25,790 Pedofiles! It’s not something that’s ever been common amongst normal people; it’s 275 00:29:25,790 --> 00:29:33,809 only for wicked Reprobates. That is just as perverse as any other perverted things the 276 00:29:33,809 --> 00:29:43,470 Bible lists, sodomy, beastiality. It’s all wicked. Only someone who has been given over 277 00:29:43,470 --> 00:29:50,910 to vile affections would desire it. A normal man would desire a woman, not a child. It’s 278 00:29:50,910 --> 00:29:55,890 filthy, and the Quran condones it, Mohammed lived it in his own life! 279 00:29:55,890 --> 00:30:01,270 I have the Quran on the pulpit, if you want to check it out after the service you’re 280 00:30:01,270 --> 00:30:07,360 more than welcome to see that this is all in here. I’ve gone out soul winning and 281 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:14,990 run into hundreds of Muslims and I’ll ask them “What about Aiesha?” And they’ll 282 00:30:14,990 --> 00:30:21,530 confirm to me every single time, “yes they got married, she was nine and that was normal 283 00:30:21,530 --> 00:30:28,780 back then.” On what planet?! But that’s their only answer. When you try to show them 284 00:30:28,780 --> 00:30:37,700 these contradictions they say “the Bible is corrupted there, I’ll go with the Quran.” 285 00:30:37,700 --> 00:30:49,890 Go to Isaiah 53. The Quran continues further to teach another gospel. Listen to the Quran 286 00:30:49,890 --> 00:30:59,880 Chapter 2 verse 122. The Quran says about the judgement day “guard yourselves against 287 00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:05,760 the day on which no soul shall stand in for another. When no ransom shall be accepted 288 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:11,840 from it, no intercession availeth, no help be given him.” So according to the Quran 289 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:18,550 on judgement day there will be no stand in, no substitute, no intercession, and no ransom 290 00:31:18,550 --> 00:31:24,210 at all. Now look at what the Bible says in Isaiah 53 verse 12 (this is talking about 291 00:31:24,210 --> 00:31:29,270 Jesus): “Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil 292 00:31:29,270 --> 00:31:34,090 with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with 293 00:31:34,090 --> 00:31:41,470 the transgressors; and he bare the sins of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.” 294 00:31:41,470 --> 00:31:47,790 Jesus made intercession for the transgressor! It says in verse 5 “But he was wounded for 295 00:31:47,790 --> 00:31:53,110 our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace 296 00:31:53,110 --> 00:31:58,830 was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; 297 00:31:58,830 --> 00:32:04,670 we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of 298 00:32:04,670 --> 00:32:13,300 us all.” Jesus is our substitute! God laid on Jesus, according to Old and New Testament, 299 00:32:13,300 --> 00:32:21,350 the iniquity of us all, and he was bruised for our iniquities, and he died for our sins, 300 00:32:21,350 --> 00:32:26,770 and the Bible clearly says he made intercession for us. Listen to these scriptures from the 301 00:32:26,770 --> 00:32:38,590 New Testament. Matthew 20 verse 28 the Bible says: “Even as the Son of man came not to 302 00:32:38,590 --> 00:32:44,230 be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.” Listen 303 00:32:44,230 --> 00:32:52,650 to 1 Timothy chapter 2 verse 6 “Jesus gave himself a RANSOM FOR ALL to be testified in 304 00:32:52,650 --> 00:32:58,470 due time.” Jesus is our ransom, Jesus is our substitute, and Jesus is our intercessor. 305 00:32:58,470 --> 00:33:03,120 The only way for us to be saved is through Jesus! If we were to be judged according to 306 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:07,679 our works we’d all be condemned! For all have sinned and come short of the glory of 307 00:33:07,679 --> 00:33:13,030 God! The Bible says: Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is 308 00:33:13,030 --> 00:33:19,980 in Christ Jesus, this is redemption that Muslims do not have. They don’t have an intercessor; 309 00:33:19,980 --> 00:33:24,120 they don’t have a stand in on judgement day. They don’t have a ransom for their 310 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:29,890 soul. We have Jesus as our savior who as died for our sin. They will die in their sins and 311 00:33:29,890 --> 00:33:33,590 be judged for their sins. See, according to the Quran they’ll be saved if they obey 312 00:33:33,590 --> 00:33:39,240 and follow the Quran and do works, but here’s the thing, every single Muslim comes short. 313 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:43,390 Every Muslim is a major sinner just like every Christian is a major sinner. We’ve all sinned 314 00:33:43,390 --> 00:33:49,980 and come short, there is none righteous, no, not one. Look at Hosea 13:14 “I will ransom 315 00:33:49,980 --> 00:33:56,290 them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; 316 00:33:56,290 --> 00:34:01,160 O grave, I will be thy destruction: repentance shall be hid from mine eyes.” This is a 317 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:06,730 scripture that is quoted in 1 Corinthians 15 about the gospel of Jesus, about the fact 318 00:34:06,730 --> 00:34:18,759 that Jesus has ransomed us from the power of the grave. Go to Hebrews 7:22 “by so 319 00:34:18,759 --> 00:34:24,470 much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. And they truly were many priests, because 320 00:34:24,470 --> 00:34:28,629 they were not suffered to continue by reason of death: but this man, because he continueth 321 00:34:28,629 --> 00:34:34,159 ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.” We don’t need you to change it Mohammed! 322 00:34:34,159 --> 00:34:40,409 Jesus has an unchangeable priesthood. It’s done, and it’s finished. Jesus said “behold 323 00:34:40,409 --> 00:34:46,009 I come quickly.” He didn’t say he’s sending another guy 600 years later that’s 324 00:34:46,009 --> 00:34:50,099 going to change everything. No the Bible says “Behold I come quickly and my reward is 325 00:34:50,099 --> 00:34:54,519 with me to give every man according as his works shall be.” Jesus is coming. That’s 326 00:34:54,519 --> 00:35:00,630 who we’re looking for. We’re not looking for some guy who came to Arabia 600 years 327 00:35:00,630 --> 00:35:09,329 later and said everything is corrupt because Gabriel talked to him in a cave. It’s false, 328 00:35:09,329 --> 00:35:10,950 let it be accursed. 329 00:35:10,950 --> 00:35:16,660 Muslims are constantly blessing Mohammed all the time. They cannot say his name without 330 00:35:16,660 --> 00:35:26,460 saying Peace be Upon Him. PISS BE UPON HIM! The Bible says of Mohammed “let him be accursed!” 331 00:35:26,460 --> 00:35:31,829 There are no blessings upon Mohammed. The Bible says “if any man preaches any other 332 00:35:31,829 --> 00:35:39,940 gospel than that which ye have received, let him be accursed.” You say “well, you shouldn’t 333 00:35:39,940 --> 00:35:47,319 say that because you’re going to anger muslims.” Let him be accursed. Like it or lump it. My 334 00:35:47,319 --> 00:35:52,140 goal is not to anger or offend Muslims. My goal is that Muslims would be saved. I want 335 00:35:52,140 --> 00:35:58,069 to reach Muslims with the gospel of Jesus Christ. But I will not sit here and be respectful 336 00:35:58,069 --> 00:36:01,519 toward a false prophet. If that is what it takes to win Muslims then I won’t win any 337 00:36:01,519 --> 00:36:07,269 Muslims to the Lord. The bible commands me to let him be accursed. I don’t respect 338 00:36:07,269 --> 00:36:12,749 all religions, because when Cain brought an offering unto the Lord that was other than 339 00:36:12,749 --> 00:36:19,259 the blood of the lamb (fruits and vegtables) that God did not have respect unto his offering. 340 00:36:19,259 --> 00:36:23,720 God did not respect Cain’s religion. Woe unto these false prophets because they have 341 00:36:23,720 --> 00:36:29,489 gone in the way of Cain! If God didn’t respect Cain, why would I respect those who have gone 342 00:36:29,489 --> 00:36:36,039 in the way of Cain? Cain is one who brought forth works salvation, Abel brought the blood 343 00:36:36,039 --> 00:36:43,690 of the lamb. Why did Cain kill Abel? Because his own works were evil and his brother’s 344 00:36:43,690 --> 00:36:54,180 righteous according to the Bible. The Spiritual Cains of Islam will kill unbelievers of their 345 00:36:54,180 --> 00:36:59,460 religion. That’s in the Quran too. 346 00:36:59,460 --> 00:37:08,150 In Hebrews 7 verse 25 the Bible says “wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost 347 00:37:08,150 --> 00:37:13,789 that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.” That’s 348 00:37:13,789 --> 00:37:19,029 where our salvation comes from, that Jesus Christ ever liveth to make intercession for 349 00:37:19,029 --> 00:37:24,779 us. The Quran says hey there is no intercession for us; it’s all on your own merits. You’re 350 00:37:24,779 --> 00:37:30,170 doomed! Even if you believe in this your doomed. I remember talking to a Muslim and she said 351 00:37:30,170 --> 00:37:34,450 “Yes I am going to heaven, because she’s doing the good works and she follows the pillars, 352 00:37:34,450 --> 00:37:40,349 and she obeys the Quran.” I started to point out to her (I don’t go around pointing out 353 00:37:40,349 --> 00:37:45,369 peoples sins to them that’s not the right attitude) because she was sitting there telling 354 00:37:45,369 --> 00:37:52,440 me that she was righteous and she was going to heaven I said “ok, what about the TV 355 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,369 that is right behind you? How about the Jerry Springer show that’s on? Is that what God 356 00:37:55,369 --> 00:38:01,069 wants you to watch? Is that a righteous tv show? Is that of God? She said “Oh well, 357 00:38:01,069 --> 00:38:06,759 yea, I guess not.” I said “Why are you in a pair of short shorts? Is that what the 358 00:38:06,759 --> 00:38:09,809 Quran taught you? Is that what Mohammed wants you to wear? She shys away saying “Oh well, 359 00:38:09,809 --> 00:38:15,279 you know…” I said “Where’s your headscarf?” She said “uhhh…” I said “What’s 360 00:38:15,279 --> 00:38:20,700 going on? You’re going to hell according to the Quran! You’re going to hell according 361 00:38:20,700 --> 00:38:25,160 to the Bible because you don’t believe that Jesus is the Son of God. Believe on the Lord 362 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:28,890 Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.” I was trying to bring her good news, that God 363 00:38:28,890 --> 00:38:34,859 will save her just as she is. As the hymnist says “Just as I am without on plea, but 364 00:38:34,859 --> 00:38:41,069 that thy blood was shed for me, and that thou biddest me come to thee, O lamb of God I come, 365 00:38:41,069 --> 00:38:48,289 I come.” That’s the salvation that Christianity offers. Islam offers prostrating yourself 366 00:38:48,289 --> 00:38:53,890 5 times a day, making a trip to Mecca, following a bunch of rules, and you know what? Then 367 00:38:53,890 --> 00:38:57,569 you hope for the best because God is gracious and compassionate. You hope that you’re 368 00:38:57,569 --> 00:39:02,769 going to make it in because he’s going to overlook all of your CONSTANT mess-ups, and 369 00:39:02,769 --> 00:39:05,420 your constant sin. 370 00:39:05,420 --> 00:39:11,160 Go to First Peter Chapter 2. Remember that we’ve only been looking at one chapter of 371 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:17,999 the Quran. The Quran has 114 chapters in it. We’re only looking at one right now. We’re 372 00:39:17,999 --> 00:39:27,299 still on the Cow folks, one chapter that is filled with heresy. It hasn’t confirmed 373 00:39:27,299 --> 00:39:35,049 previous scriptures at all like it claims to. Listen to what the Quran says in the Cow 374 00:39:35,049 --> 00:39:48,440 verse 91. It says “Slay them wherever you find them! (slay means kill) Drive them out 375 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:53,769 the places where they drove you. Idolatry is more grievous than bloodshed. But do not 376 00:39:53,769 --> 00:39:59,319 fight them within the precincts of the holy mosque, unless they attack you there. If they 377 00:39:59,319 --> 00:40:06,739 attack you, slay them. Thus shall the unbelievers be requited, but if they desist God is forgiving 378 00:40:06,739 --> 00:40:13,900 and compassionate. Fight them unto Idolatry is no more, and God’s religion reigns supreme! 379 00:40:13,900 --> 00:40:21,430 But if they desist, attack the wrongdoers. A sacred month for a sacred month, sacred 380 00:40:21,430 --> 00:40:27,690 things too are subject to retaliation. If anyone attacks you, attack him as he attacked 381 00:40:27,690 --> 00:40:35,960 you!” So he lists this over and over again. If anyone attacks you, slay them. Attack them 382 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:42,680 that attack you. A few verses later in verse 216 he says “fighting is obligatory for 383 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:47,809 you!” He’s not talking about a spiritual warfare. He’s talking about literal sword 384 00:40:47,809 --> 00:40:53,390 fighting. Go slay the wicked. He says “fighting is obligatory for you, as much as you dislike 385 00:40:53,390 --> 00:40:58,279 it, but you may hate a thing although it’s good for you, and love a thing although it’s 386 00:40:58,279 --> 00:41:03,950 bad for you. God knows but you know not.” God knows and you know not just shut up because 387 00:41:03,950 --> 00:41:09,680 I said so and go slay these unbelievers until God’s religion reigns supreme. Now is this 388 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:14,609 what Jesus taught? Did Jesus teach, “attack those that attack you?” Did Jesus teach 389 00:41:14,609 --> 00:41:21,519 “if they attack you, slay them!” No, he did not. Listen to what the Bible teaches 390 00:41:21,519 --> 00:41:26,829 in 1 Peter chapter 2 verse 19: “For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward 391 00:41:26,829 --> 00:41:32,930 God endure grief, suffering wrongfully. For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted 392 00:41:32,930 --> 00:41:37,259 for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? But if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, 393 00:41:37,259 --> 00:41:43,390 ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God. For even hereunto were ye called: because 394 00:41:43,390 --> 00:41:48,579 Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: 395 00:41:48,579 --> 00:41:54,430 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: Who, when he was reviled, reviled 396 00:41:54,430 --> 00:42:00,339 not again: when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth 397 00:42:00,339 --> 00:42:05,729 righteously.” What does the bible say? “Whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn 398 00:42:05,729 --> 00:42:12,589 to him the other also.” “SLAY HIM” Mohammed would say. “He that smiteth you on the cheek, 399 00:42:12,589 --> 00:42:14,180 slay him now!” He would say “Don’t do it in the Mosque, but if he hits you in the 400 00:42:14,180 --> 00:42:19,670 Mosque do it in the Mosque. Kill him in the mosque! Slay him wherever you find him! Slay 401 00:42:19,670 --> 00:42:21,890 him until God’s religion reigns supreme.” 402 00:42:21,890 --> 00:42:27,359 Listen, God’s religion is not going to reign supreme because narrow is the way that leadeth 403 00:42:27,359 --> 00:42:32,170 unto life and few there be that find it. Broad is the way that leads to destruction and many 404 00:42:32,170 --> 00:42:35,440 there be which go in thereat. It’s never going to be a thing where the whole world 405 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:40,670 gets saved. Most people are not saved. God’s way is never going to be supreme is the narrow 406 00:42:40,670 --> 00:42:47,400 way. But they’re saying, “let’s just slay the idolators until God’s religion 407 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:54,239 reigns supreme.” This is not what the Bibles teaches. A lot of people will say “Well 408 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:58,229 you know, in the Old Testament it was kind of like that, that in the Old Testament it 409 00:42:58,229 --> 00:43:08,979 was just SLAY EVERYBODY.” No, it was not like that. Where do you see in the Old Testament 410 00:43:08,979 --> 00:43:15,940 the need to slay all these nations and force them to convert to worship the God of the 411 00:43:15,940 --> 00:43:25,720 Bible? The only thing that you could point to is that God specifically told the children 412 00:43:25,720 --> 00:43:30,670 of Israel who came out of the land of Egypt to go into Cannan and wipe out those specific 413 00:43:30,670 --> 00:43:38,170 nations of the Cannanites who were cursed by God, who commited the filthiest imaginable 414 00:43:38,170 --> 00:43:42,359 acts, and God said because they’ve done all these things you need to just wipe these 415 00:43:42,359 --> 00:43:45,680 people out. He said that His people couldn’t even coexist with these people because they 416 00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:52,039 practice so much filth and perversion. Leviticus 18 and 20 lists all the perversion that they 417 00:43:52,039 --> 00:43:58,779 did and it’s horrific. This is why they need to go in there and wipe them out. God 418 00:43:58,779 --> 00:44:03,529 never said “convert the whole world through warfare, through the sword.” He didn’t 419 00:44:03,529 --> 00:44:08,970 even say to force these people to convert. All he said to do was that these people have 420 00:44:08,970 --> 00:44:12,400 become so deviant and perverted that they needed to be wiped out. This was one specific 421 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:18,019 nation. Once the children of Israel come in and inherit the land, where do you see them 422 00:44:18,019 --> 00:44:24,289 going out and conquesting and building an empire? Where do you see an Israelite empire 423 00:44:24,289 --> 00:44:30,559 going into Europe, going into Africa, going into India, and taking over and saying convert 424 00:44:30,559 --> 00:44:35,410 to worshipping the Lord or we will slay you? There’s nothing like that, in either Old 425 00:44:35,410 --> 00:44:45,269 Testament or New Testament. That is false. Even if it were in the Old Testament (which 426 00:44:45,269 --> 00:44:51,339 it’s not), we’re in the New Testament! There’s nowhere that Christ said that we 427 00:44:51,339 --> 00:44:56,380 are to go to physical war in the New Testament. Show me in the New Testament where we are 428 00:44:56,380 --> 00:45:02,069 supposed to go out and physically fight against the Lord’s enemies physically. NEVER! It’s 429 00:45:02,069 --> 00:45:07,390 never taught. The only thing the Bible teaches in the New Testament is that government should 430 00:45:07,390 --> 00:45:13,140 punish evildoers. Never does it say we’re going to go on Jihad, we’re going to go 431 00:45:13,140 --> 00:45:19,569 out and have a righteous war to convert people and force them under until we can take over 432 00:45:19,569 --> 00:45:24,710 as many places as possible and bring them to the true religion. The Bible doesn’t 433 00:45:24,710 --> 00:45:30,989 teach to attack those who attack you. The Bible doesn’t say “slay the idolators.” 434 00:45:30,989 --> 00:45:36,940 It says “recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all 435 00:45:36,940 --> 00:45:42,759 men. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath. For it is 436 00:45:42,759 --> 00:45:47,599 written “vengeance is mine, I will repay” saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger 437 00:45:47,599 --> 00:45:52,339 SLAY HIM! No that’s not what it says, it says “if thine enemy hunger feed him. If 438 00:45:52,339 --> 00:45:57,829 he thirst give him drink. For in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 439 00:45:57,829 --> 00:46:02,630 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.” That’s what the Bible says. 440 00:46:02,630 --> 00:46:09,190 This is totally the opposite of what the Quran is saying. It says “if it be possible, as 441 00:46:09,190 --> 00:46:12,729 much as lieth in you live peaceably with all men. 442 00:46:12,729 --> 00:46:16,920 Back to a little bit of the history of Mohammed… so Mohammed goes into the cave, he starts 443 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:22,220 getting these visions, starting at age 40, he starts reciting the Quran to some followers 444 00:46:22,220 --> 00:46:26,660 and he starts building up a following where he’s reciting these Suras or chapters of 445 00:46:26,660 --> 00:46:32,380 the Quran. People start to believe in it and they start following his teachings and he 446 00:46:32,380 --> 00:46:41,619 begins to be persecuted in his home town. His home town is Mecca. Eventually the Muslims 447 00:46:41,619 --> 00:46:47,920 in Mecca are persecuted and they end up leaving Mecca. They flee from Mecca and go to Medina. 448 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:55,769 Medina is where all the followers of Mohammed began to congregate and assemble. Medina became 449 00:46:55,769 --> 00:47:06,069 a very Muslim place. Then the Muslims in Medina decided that they were going to (by the “revelation 450 00:47:06,069 --> 00:47:15,999 of God” to Mohammed) start raiding the caravans of Mecca. What does it mean to raid a caravan? 451 00:47:15,999 --> 00:47:20,569 That means that here are caravans, and people are doing business and making money by working 452 00:47:20,569 --> 00:47:25,650 and trading. They are bringing merchandise from a far. The Muslims are going to swoop 453 00:47:25,650 --> 00:47:31,599 down and attack them and steal their stuff. Does the Bible teach to steal? Well as long 454 00:47:31,599 --> 00:47:36,160 as their not saved right? We can steal from them? That’s not what the Bible says, it 455 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:44,489 says “thou shalt not steal.” But Mohammed says, “God wants us to raid these caravans 456 00:47:44,489 --> 00:47:48,019 and steal from the people of Mecca.” You know, they’re a bunch of infidels anyway 457 00:47:48,019 --> 00:47:54,680 so we’ll rob them and fight them, and kill them and whatever. This is not anything to 458 00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:59,680 do with the religion of the Bible, Old or New Testament, this is not Christianity. This 459 00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:08,339 is just a prophet who is teaching either the doctrines of devils (which is the most likely 460 00:48:08,339 --> 00:48:14,910 explanation), or just of his own wicked imagination and heart. If you think about it, the same 461 00:48:14,910 --> 00:48:19,660 angel who’s telling him “marry a 6 year old,” is the same one saying “raid caravans, 462 00:48:19,660 --> 00:48:25,359 steal, kill, fight, do all this.” It’s wickedness that he’s been spurred on to 463 00:48:25,359 --> 00:48:31,489 by these demons that are talking to him. So he begins to raid the caravans and eventually 464 00:48:31,489 --> 00:48:38,339 there’s a big battle of Mecca vs. Medina. Eventually they took control of Mecca once 465 00:48:38,339 --> 00:48:44,420 again. They also got control of the Game Cube, which I want to speak about for just a moment. 466 00:48:44,420 --> 00:48:47,069 The Kabbah is what they call it. 467 00:48:47,069 --> 00:48:56,710 The Kabbah is this great giant cube. They claim that this is a house of God, that this 468 00:48:56,710 --> 00:49:05,509 is a holy shrine. They believe it was originally built by Abraham and Ismael. Here’s what’s 469 00:49:05,509 --> 00:49:11,450 interesting about the Kabbah, the Kabbah already existed before Mohammed came along. It was 470 00:49:11,450 --> 00:49:17,599 something that the pagan polytheistic Arabs used to worship their gods. So they had all 471 00:49:17,599 --> 00:49:23,450 these idols and false gods in the Kabbah. Then Mohammed comes along and wants to take 472 00:49:23,450 --> 00:49:30,559 this over and make it a holy place. So he gets rid of all the idols, but this is a holy 473 00:49:30,559 --> 00:49:38,259 place still. All throughout the Quran he’s adopting and keeping all these traditions 474 00:49:38,259 --> 00:49:43,079 of the wicked pagan Arabs, and claiming this is actually from God it’s just that they 475 00:49:43,079 --> 00:49:51,599 messed it up. The Game Cube was originally a pagan Arab shrine to their false gods. Mohammed 476 00:49:51,599 --> 00:49:56,969 comes along and says this is built by Abraham and Ishmael. Listen to what Mohammed said: 477 00:49:56,969 --> 00:50:06,880 “Abraham and Ishmael laid the foundations (Cow verse 128) of the house and dedicated 478 00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:12,619 it saying ‘accept this from us Lord.’ You are the one that hears all and knows all. 479 00:50:12,619 --> 00:50:16,960 Lord make us submissive to you, make of our descendants a community that will submit to 480 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:23,940 you.” Where is any of this in Genesis is what I’d like to know. Where in the Bible 481 00:50:23,940 --> 00:50:31,519 do we see Abraham and Ishmael building this cube? This is all just made up and it’s 482 00:50:31,519 --> 00:50:36,719 not confirming anything in the Bible, it’s completely made up. Also Mohammed is saying 483 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:44,130 “Safa and Marwa are two of God’s beacons.” These are mountains that the pagans worship. 484 00:50:44,130 --> 00:50:51,630 The Muslim might say “Oh, it’s ok to worship them because they’re God’s beacons, don’t 485 00:50:51,630 --> 00:50:56,309 say they’re about false gods.” Mohammed is adopting all the pagan practices. When 486 00:50:56,309 --> 00:51:01,400 they make their pilgrimage to Mecca, because one of the 5 pillars that Islam teaches is 487 00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:08,059 a trip to Mecca once in their lifetime at a minimum if they can, they all bow down to 488 00:51:08,059 --> 00:51:14,690 that cube and make circles around it, and perform all these rituals about that cube. 489 00:51:14,690 --> 00:51:19,450 The “Game Cube” as I affectionately call it. 490 00:51:19,450 --> 00:51:28,729 Go to second Peter chapter 2. Let’s see what the Bible says about false prophets. 491 00:51:28,729 --> 00:51:35,940 This is what Mohammed is, a false prophet. You ask, what’s the evidence that he’s 492 00:51:35,940 --> 00:51:40,960 a false prophet? It’s the fact that he contradicts everything that is taught in the Old Testament 493 00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:46,619 and the New Testament. He also contradicts the Law of Moses, and to jump forward to the 494 00:51:46,619 --> 00:51:57,059 end of the Quran one of the very last things it says is “God is one, the eternal God. 495 00:51:57,059 --> 00:52:01,349 He has begotten none, nor was he begotten. No one is equal to him.” Over and over it 496 00:52:01,349 --> 00:52:07,920 says “God has no son.” And that God begets no one. They say that Jesus was born of a 497 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:16,650 virgin but they say there was just no father. So instead of God being his Father there’s 498 00:52:16,650 --> 00:52:21,979 just no father. He’s just born of one person. That doesn’t make any sense. That’s contrary 499 00:52:21,979 --> 00:52:29,019 to what the Word of God teaches of course. So back to 2 Peter Chapter 2 of false prophets, 500 00:52:29,019 --> 00:52:34,210 the Bible says “But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall 501 00:52:34,210 --> 00:52:38,869 be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the 502 00:52:38,869 --> 00:52:43,289 Lord that bought them (and of course Mohammed denies that Jesus is the Son of God) and bring 503 00:52:43,289 --> 00:52:47,670 upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason 504 00:52:47,670 --> 00:52:53,579 of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.” Look at verse 14 “having eyes full 505 00:52:53,579 --> 00:52:59,900 of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have 506 00:52:59,900 --> 00:53:08,900 exercised with covetous practices; cursed children…” These descriptions fit Mohammed. 507 00:53:08,900 --> 00:53:14,700 Covetous practices are like raiding caravans and stealing stuff. Like coveting other men’s 508 00:53:14,700 --> 00:53:21,180 wives! He married woman after woman after woman! He had eyes that cannot be satisfied. 509 00:53:21,180 --> 00:53:26,039 Why do you have to marry 11 wives? It’s because you’re not content with such things 510 00:53:26,039 --> 00:53:32,249 as ye have. It’s also because you’re not content and rejoicing with the wife of your 511 00:53:32,249 --> 00:53:39,420 youth. So this fits Mohammed. Go to Jude. Jude is the parallel passage two pages later 512 00:53:39,420 --> 00:53:44,519 where the Bible talks about false prophets. Verse 3 says “Beloved, when I gave all diligence 513 00:53:44,519 --> 00:53:49,549 to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and 514 00:53:49,549 --> 00:53:53,289 exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delievered unto 515 00:53:53,289 --> 00:53:58,019 the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained 516 00:53:58,019 --> 00:54:03,410 to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, 517 00:54:03,410 --> 00:54:08,859 and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.” Look at verse 7 “Even as 518 00:54:08,859 --> 00:54:13,549 Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to 519 00:54:13,549 --> 00:54:18,089 fornication, and going after strange flesh, are est for for an example, suffering the 520 00:54:18,089 --> 00:54:23,890 vengeance of eternal fire. Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise 521 00:54:23,890 --> 00:54:29,039 dominion, and speak evil of dignities.” Mohammed dreamed that was supposed to marry 522 00:54:29,039 --> 00:54:33,469 a six year old. If he’s not a filthy dreamer I don’t know what to say. It says “going 523 00:54:33,469 --> 00:54:39,650 after strange flesh,” children is strange flesh. That’s strange for a man to go after, 524 00:54:39,650 --> 00:54:45,359 going after the flesh of children. He’s described as a false prophet. 525 00:54:45,359 --> 00:54:52,180 Muslims need to understand according to the New Testament which is a greater book than 526 00:54:52,180 --> 00:54:57,150 the Quran, because there is more greatness in one chapter of the New Testament, than 527 00:54:57,150 --> 00:55:04,380 the whole book of the Quran. The Lord Jesus Christ provides a ransom, Salvation! Intercession! 528 00:55:04,380 --> 00:55:14,160 Good News! If you believe in the Bible, it’s describing Mohammed as a false prophet. It 529 00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:19,709 describes him to a T. One more thing that I want to cover so I’ve covered everything 530 00:55:19,709 --> 00:55:27,099 from the Cow chapter that I wanted to cover is that it actually brings up Jesus and Mary. 531 00:55:27,099 --> 00:56:13,229 Give me a moment to find it in my notes… (flipping through pages). It’s actually 532 00:56:13,229 --> 00:56:30,489 in Chapter Three. This chapter is the House of Imran. Imran is referring to Amram. Now 533 00:56:30,489 --> 00:56:36,940 if you know your Bible you know that Amram was the father of who? Do you remember Amram 534 00:56:36,940 --> 00:56:50,999 and Jocabed? Who were their children? His children were Moses, Aaron and Miriam. In 535 00:56:50,999 --> 00:56:57,440 Arabic the name Mary is Miriam. It’s the same as the character from the Old Testament. 536 00:56:57,440 --> 00:57:10,390 So they share the same name. So because Mohammed was illiterate he made the foolish mistake 537 00:57:10,390 --> 00:57:17,410 of (throughout the Quran) thinking that Miriam, the sister of Moses and Aaron, was the same 538 00:57:17,410 --> 00:57:24,400 person as Mary the mother of Jesus. Here’s the problem with that, those lived close to 539 00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:30,150 2000 years apart. Whatever you believe, whatever your religion, these are historical figures 540 00:57:30,150 --> 00:57:37,930 folks. Even an atheist will tell you that Jesus of Nazareth was a real person. Anybody 541 00:57:37,930 --> 00:57:55,829 knows that Moses lived almost 2000 years before Jesus. Think about it, after Moses you have 542 00:57:55,829 --> 00:58:04,140 400 years of the judges, then they have the Kings (Saul, David, and Solomon and that’s 543 00:58:04,140 --> 00:58:10,309 120 years). Then you have the time of Jeraboam the son of Nebat and he leads the northern 544 00:58:10,309 --> 00:58:21,930 kingdom into sin for 390 years. So 400 plus 120 plus 390, then another 500 years, so you’re 545 00:58:21,930 --> 00:58:29,390 looking at a LONG period of time. This is a pretty stupid mistake to make, to mix up 546 00:58:29,390 --> 00:58:31,259 Miriam the sister of Moses and Miriam (in their language) the mother of Jesus. It’s 547 00:58:31,259 --> 00:58:36,380 something that you would expect a small child to make, where they think that a character 548 00:58:36,380 --> 00:58:44,259 from Exodus is a character from Matthew. Think about it, Exodus and Matthew are pretty far 549 00:58:44,259 --> 00:58:50,519 apart. Since he is illiterate and because he is a false teacher he makes this error. 550 00:58:50,519 --> 00:58:58,229 So the House of Imram is talking about Mary being born and Mary giving birth to Jesus. 551 00:58:58,229 --> 00:59:06,719 It calls her “Mary, the daughter of Imram!” Since once again they believe this is the 552 00:59:06,719 --> 00:59:13,329 same person. It says in the footnote at the bottom of the page: “in the Quran, Amram 553 00:59:13,329 --> 00:59:19,789 is also the virgin Mary’s father,” Since it talks about them being the same person. 554 00:59:19,789 --> 00:59:24,339 Some people will try to cover for this and say “It’s not really the same because 555 00:59:24,339 --> 00:59:30,660 they just both happen to be named Amram, it’s just a different Amram.” Here’s the proof 556 00:59:30,660 --> 00:59:42,779 that it’s not, if you jump forward to chapter 19 of the Quran around verse 27 it talks about 557 00:59:42,779 --> 00:59:48,410 how Mary goes out into the desert, and basically comes back with a baby. This is totally different 558 00:59:48,410 --> 00:59:54,910 from what the Bible teaches about the manger and no room in the inn and Joseph’s there, 559 00:59:54,910 --> 01:00:01,009 totally different story in the Quran of course. In the Quran it says “carrying the child 560 01:00:01,009 --> 01:00:07,239 the people said to her ‘Mary! You have indeed done a shameful deed!’” They’re saying 561 01:00:07,239 --> 01:00:11,880 this because she leaves and comes back with a kid. There’s no Joseph in this story, 562 01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:16,779 Mary just leaves and goes out into the desert and comes back with a baby! “Mary! You have 563 01:00:16,779 --> 01:00:23,789 indeed done a shameful deed, sister of Aaron!” Sister of Aaron??? So not only is the Quran 564 01:00:23,789 --> 01:00:28,849 saying that Amram is her dad but it’s saying that Aaron is her brother! Mohammed truly 565 01:00:28,849 --> 01:00:35,640 did mix up Miriam of the Old Testament and Miriam of the New Testament, because in Arabic 566 01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:40,829 it’s the same name. There’s a footnote at the bottom of the page in this edition 567 01:00:40,829 --> 01:00:45,749 of the Quran that says “it appears that Miriam, Aaron’s sister, and Miriam the mother 568 01:00:45,749 --> 01:00:52,380 of Jesus were one and the same person.” That’s amazing that they lived so many hundreds 569 01:00:52,380 --> 01:00:58,219 and hundreds of years apart! But when you’re illiterate and you can’t read the Bible 570 01:00:58,219 --> 01:01:03,140 you’re going to make mistakes like that. You’re going on hear say of a vague knowledge 571 01:01:03,140 --> 01:01:04,339 of the Bible. 572 01:01:04,339 --> 01:01:10,579 The Quran continues “Sister of Aaron! Your father was never a whoremonger, nor was your 573 01:01:10,579 --> 01:01:16,559 mother a harlot. She made a sign to them pointing to the child.” (because she can’t talk, 574 01:01:16,559 --> 01:01:23,859 she’s been struck with dumbness). So she’s pointing to the baby, and they said “how 575 01:01:23,859 --> 01:01:35,769 can we speak with a babe in the cradle? Whereupon he the baby spoke.” So this is newborn baby 576 01:01:35,769 --> 01:01:47,630 Jesus. He says “I am the servant of God (okay bring Boaz up here, I need a visual 577 01:01:47,630 --> 01:02:08,249 aid). Now this isn’t really a good illustration because this is the youngest kid I have folks. In the Quran 578 01:02:08,249 --> 01:02:15,920 it’s a new born. So here’s what’s going on in the Quran (illustrates with baby). The 579 01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:33,400 baby Jesus said “I am the servant of God, he has gave me the book and ordained me his 580 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:40,039 prophet. His blessing is upon me wherever I go, and he has exalted me to be steadfast 581 01:02:40,039 --> 01:02:48,259 in prayer, and to give alms as long as I shall live. He has exhorted me to honor my mother 582 01:02:48,259 --> 01:02:54,190 and has purged me of vanity and wickedness. Peace be on me on the day I was born, and 583 01:02:54,190 --> 01:02:59,029 on the day of my death, and on the day I shall be raised to life.” (Pastor Anderson explains 584 01:02:59,029 --> 01:03:06,699 he wanted to make the reading more real with the baby and hands the baby back to the woman 585 01:03:06,699 --> 01:03:16,039 named Miriam, he jokes and says she was in Exodus and in Matthew too!) Saying that the 586 01:03:16,039 --> 01:03:23,039 Miriam of Exodus was the same Miriam as the mother of Jesus is like saying that this is 587 01:03:23,039 --> 01:03:27,019 the same Miriam. The same conditions exist of a time frame of hundreds and hundreds of 588 01:03:27,019 --> 01:03:32,670 years apart. It’s a similar mistake. 589 01:03:32,670 --> 01:03:42,440 Folks, this book was written by an illiterate false prophet who taught false doctrine according 590 01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:46,749 to his own lust. Hey lets raid caravans and kill people (in the voice of Mohammed) and 591 01:03:46,749 --> 01:03:53,049 take over Arabia! He got a bunch of power for himself and amassed a following. Maybe 592 01:03:53,049 --> 01:03:56,380 all of this is because he wanted to have 11 wives! Maybe it’s because he wanted to be 593 01:03:56,380 --> 01:04:04,209 bowed down to as “the greatest prophet of all time, greater than Jesus.” No! There’s 594 01:04:04,209 --> 01:04:10,609 no one greater than Jesus because Jesus is the name above all names. This man was a false 595 01:04:10,609 --> 01:04:17,009 prophet who got his teachings from demons or from his own heart but I believe it’s 596 01:04:17,009 --> 01:04:23,489 from demons. When you have 1.6 Billion followers, you need the Devil’s help for that. I don’t 597 01:04:23,489 --> 01:04:33,549 think he could do that on his own. He was full of wickedness, filth, blasphemy against 598 01:04:33,549 --> 01:04:41,690 the Lord Jesus. This is a wicked religion that was violent from the beginning. I read 599 01:04:41,690 --> 01:04:46,900 you the verses from the very beginning of the Quran, there’s more later of course. 600 01:04:46,900 --> 01:04:50,029 Right at the beginning it says let’s go raid caravans let’s go fight let’s go 601 01:04:50,029 --> 01:04:56,880 slay. He told them “I bring you slaughter!” He told them that before any of the fighting 602 01:04:56,880 --> 01:05:12,489 had broken out. “Men of Mecca I bring you slaughter.” “Slay them all!” 603 01:05:12,489 --> 01:05:18,969 Now you say, “what’s the purpose of the sermon?” It’s because today we’re living 604 01:05:18,969 --> 01:05:24,759 in a day of Ecumenicalism, where people are trying to say that Christianity and Islam 605 01:05:24,759 --> 01:05:28,670 aren’t that different. It’s the Rick Warrens of this world, when they’re not holding 606 01:05:28,670 --> 01:05:36,670 hands with Elton John, they’re saying “let’s focus on what we have in common with Islam.” 607 01:05:36,670 --> 01:05:39,479 We need to make a clear distinction between us and them, we need to have nothing to do 608 01:05:39,479 --> 01:05:46,940 with Islam. Islam is a wicked religion, but let me say this, I do not hate Muslims at 609 01:05:46,940 --> 01:05:52,920 all. In fact I love Muslims and want them to be saved. Do I hate Mohammed? YES. Do I 610 01:05:52,920 --> 01:06:01,420 hate the Quran? Yes, but I do not hate Muslim people at all. Many Christians do hate Muslims, 611 01:06:01,420 --> 01:06:08,079 and they are wrong. I love Muslims and any time I meet Muslims I am kind to them. I don’t 612 01:06:08,079 --> 01:06:11,910 just walk up to them and say “WHAT IN THE WORLD DO YOU BELIEVE IN?!? I BOUGHT A COPY 613 01:06:11,910 --> 01:06:19,339 OF THIS BOOK IT’S THE STUPIDEST THING I’VE EVER READ!” If I said that it would be the 614 01:06:19,339 --> 01:06:28,089 truth. This book is nonsense. That’s not what I say to them, rather I give them the 615 01:06:28,089 --> 01:06:33,579 gospel. I start quoting the Bible, and I show them scripture. I am however be telling them 616 01:06:33,579 --> 01:06:39,690 that it is a false religion, but within the four walls of FWBC (Faithful Word Baptist 617 01:06:39,690 --> 01:06:46,579 Church) let him be accursed! I’m not going to sit here and shy away from it. Now I’ve 618 01:06:46,579 --> 01:06:53,459 heard of other people, even a man in Tempe recently for example that went out to a Mosque 619 01:06:53,459 --> 01:07:01,119 in Tempe and was bullhorning and tearing up the Quran. Don’t tear up the Quran folks, 620 01:07:01,119 --> 01:07:11,499 why would you tear up the most damning evidence against Islam? Why would you burn it? It’s 621 01:07:11,499 --> 01:07:18,969 the biggest proof that Mohammed and Islam are a fraud. We don’t have to go out and 622 01:07:18,969 --> 01:07:25,809 kill people to get them to convert to Jesus because what we believe actually has power. 623 01:07:25,809 --> 01:07:32,819 It’s the gospel of Jesus. What we need to do with Muslims is not go out there and I 624 01:07:32,819 --> 01:07:41,130 question the motive of someone who goes out there and rips up the Quran and goes bullhorning 625 01:07:41,130 --> 01:07:48,180 because at that point it becomes obnoxious and it’s not geared toward getting Muslims 626 01:07:48,180 --> 01:07:53,690 saved. You may say, well this sermon is not geared toward getting Muslims saved. How many 627 01:07:53,690 --> 01:08:00,499 Muslims do we have in service today? Zero. So if we have zero Muslims in the auditorium 628 01:08:00,499 --> 01:08:05,069 today, why would I gear my sermon toward getting Muslims saved? Can someone explain that to 629 01:08:05,069 --> 01:08:12,839 me? Wouldn’t that be a wasted sermon? I’m preaching to Christians! I’m preaching to 630 01:08:12,839 --> 01:08:19,540 the saved so that you can understand the certainty of what we believe, and the falsehood of what 631 01:08:19,540 --> 01:08:25,180 they believe. I’m teaching the same and I was able to teach you some important doctrines 632 01:08:25,180 --> 01:08:29,100 out of the Bible from 1 Corinthians and Deuteronomy, from Galatians and Matthew and Isaiah. You 633 01:08:29,100 --> 01:08:35,020 learned the truth tonight, about intercession, and about Jesus our ransom, about divorce 634 01:08:35,020 --> 01:08:45,710 and what the Bible says about how old a woman has to be before they she can get married, 635 01:08:45,710 --> 01:08:49,880 the Muslims today do not worship the same God, because if you don’t have the Son you 636 01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:57,140 don’t have the father! “Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father.” 637 01:08:57,140 --> 01:09:02,770 They worship another god, they believe another gospel, and the motive tonight is not to get 638 01:09:02,770 --> 01:09:08,660 you all fired up and stirred up against Islam, and you’re going to hate them. No, love 639 01:09:08,660 --> 01:09:10,960 the Muslims. 640 01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:16,900 I hope that after hearing this sermon tonight, is that your desire is to bring the gospel 641 01:09:16,900 --> 01:09:21,730 of Jesus Christ to Muslims. If you walk out of here without that desire, then you’re 642 01:09:21,730 --> 01:09:28,190 not right with God. If you walk out of here with the attitude of NUKE THEM! KILL THEM! 643 01:09:28,190 --> 01:09:34,210 Then you’re not right with God tonight. You ought to have love for the lost. Now the 644 01:09:34,210 --> 01:09:44,140 Quran says right at the beginning of the Imram chapter “God does not love the unbelievers, 645 01:09:44,140 --> 01:09:48,980 now is that what the Bible teaches? No the Bible says that “God commendeth his love 646 01:09:48,980 --> 01:09:55,160 toward us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.” But this says “God 647 01:09:55,160 --> 01:10:00,360 does not love the unbelievers!” We as Christians should not have the attitude of the Quran. 648 01:10:00,360 --> 01:10:07,600 This kill them all, God doesn’t love them attitude. No, God loves them we need to get 649 01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:18,730 them saved and love them and bring them the gospel. I have won an Iranian Muslim to Christ. 650 01:10:18,730 --> 01:10:26,240 And those are the ones that are seen as radical, the ones that are from Iran. I’ve also won 651 01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:31,870 other Muslims to the Lord. Thank God that Muslims are usually pretty receptive to hearing 652 01:10:31,870 --> 01:10:38,120 the gospel. If you go out soul winning and run into Muslims they’ll usually listen 653 01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:44,320 to the gospel. We need to take the opportunity (the mission field is all around us) to get 654 01:10:44,320 --> 01:10:50,170 these Muslims the gospel of Jesus Christ and tell them about the intercessor, tell them 655 01:10:50,170 --> 01:10:54,540 about the ransom for their soul, tell them about Jesus who died on the cross for our 656 01:10:54,540 --> 01:10:58,370 sins and was buried and rose again according to the scripture that they might be saved 657 01:10:58,370 --> 01:11:05,310 by faith. You say, well Pastor Anderson you don’t preach against Islam a lot. I have 658 01:11:05,310 --> 01:11:09,600 preached against Islam. I did a sermon called Mormonism and Islam that teaches that Mormonism 659 01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:18,540 is a white man’s Islam. Same doctrine, same religion. But sometimes I find myself not 660 01:11:18,540 --> 01:11:27,120 really desiring to preach against Islam because right now there is a propaganda campaign going 661 01:11:27,120 --> 01:11:34,190 on to demonize Muslims for the benefit of the military industrial complex. That we might 662 01:11:34,190 --> 01:11:43,620 go to war with them and it’s demonizing them and dehumanizing them. I want nothing 663 01:11:43,620 --> 01:11:55,390 to do with that. My only goal is to peacefully preach the good news unto Muslims. I don’t 664 01:11:55,390 --> 01:12:02,480 want to see any of them slain. I don’t want to get in their face and tell them what I 665 01:12:02,480 --> 01:12:07,790 think. That’s not the goal, the goal is to win them to Christ. 666 01:12:07,790 --> 01:12:12,250 How are we going to do that? Through this sermon? No, this sermon is for the saved. 667 01:12:12,250 --> 01:12:21,540 We’re going to go out and knock their doors and show them the gospel. That’s the game 668 01:12:21,540 --> 01:12:28,260 plan for getting Muslims saved. Show them the gospel. This attitude that hates them 669 01:12:28,260 --> 01:12:37,890 and wants them dead and thinks they’re all horrible is wrong. Who here has known Muslims 670 01:12:37,890 --> 01:12:46,120 in their personal life? They’re nice people. It’s not their fault in many cases that 671 01:12:46,120 --> 01:12:52,350 they’ve been brought up and are deceived and ignorant from birth. Now I’m sure that 672 01:12:52,350 --> 01:12:57,140 many of them are wicked people. Don’t get me wrong there are evil and wicked Muslim 673 01:12:57,140 --> 01:13:04,000 peoples that want to kill everybody and there are Mullah’s that are the religious teachers 674 01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:10,410 that are pedophiles and homosexuals in the closet. There are all kinds of demonic wicked 675 01:13:10,410 --> 01:13:18,130 people in the Islamic religion. But the average Muslim like the average Catholic or the average 676 01:13:18,130 --> 01:13:24,920 Agnostic or average whatever is just a nice person who is basically following the Quran 677 01:13:24,920 --> 01:13:28,150 because that’s what they’ve been taught and they’re waiting for YOU to bring them 678 01:13:28,150 --> 01:13:37,810 the gospel. So I don’t want my sermon to be misconstrued that I am lumped into this 679 01:13:37,810 --> 01:13:44,940 hatred for and demonization of Muslims as a whole. I don’t believe in it. I love Arabic 680 01:13:44,940 --> 01:13:51,110 people, Persian people, Indonesian people, I want them to get saved. No hatred in my 681 01:13:51,110 --> 01:13:56,100 heart whatsoever for them. I only hate those who hate the Lord, those who are Reprobate. 682 01:13:56,100 --> 01:14:03,810 That’s a minority, out of 1.6 billion people they are not all horrible people. So we need 683 01:14:03,810 --> 01:14:10,500 to get them the gospel of Jesus Christ and speak the truth in love and not demonize them 684 01:14:10,500 --> 01:14:19,600 as less than human. People say stupid things. Someone said “The Arabs have given nothing 685 01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:31,460 to the world!” But even the number 1300 is written in Arabic numbers! Even our numbers, 686 01:14:31,460 --> 01:14:40,710 1, 3, these are Arabic numerals. These are Arabic as opposed to Roman numerals. I’m 687 01:14:40,710 --> 01:14:49,430 glad that we don’t write MCXIII etc. It’s a pain! Thank you Arabs for giving us this! 688 01:14:49,430 --> 01:14:55,830 But it wasn’t Islam that gave this to us. You have to be able to differentiate between 689 01:14:55,830 --> 01:15:05,800 the people and the religion. It’s not the Arabs that are the problem it’s Islam. So 690 01:15:05,800 --> 01:15:13,150 don’t sit there and make stupid comments like this. The Arabs have done lots of things, 691 01:15:13,150 --> 01:15:19,980 scientific discoveries and such. It’s not about the race, it’s not about the nation, 692 01:15:19,980 --> 01:15:23,670 it’s about the religion and Mohammed is a false prophet, piss be upon him. 693 01:15:23,670 --> 01:15:26,720 Let’s bow our heads and have a word of prayer. Father we thank you so much for your word, 694 01:15:26,720 --> 01:15:32,060 LORD, and we thank you so much for the gospel that it really is good tidings. Please help 695 01:15:32,060 --> 01:15:36,460 us to get it out to all the people who are lost in this world Lord. Help us to give it 696 01:15:36,460 --> 01:15:41,350 to the Muslims, Lord. They live in Tempe! They live in Pheonix. Help us to knock their 697 01:15:41,350 --> 01:15:45,770 door and find them and preach them the gospel with love in our hearts, with a tear in the 698 01:15:45,770 --> 01:15:50,980 eye, with a Bible in the hand Lord. Help us to reach the Hindus, the Buddhists, the false 699 01:15:50,980 --> 01:15:55,050 apostate Christians, Lord. Help us to reach the Catholics, Lord. The Catholics are just 700 01:15:55,050 --> 01:16:00,640 as unsaved as the Muslims tonight. Help us to get the saving gospel of Jesus to all the 701 01:16:00,640 --> 01:16:12,370 lost. Not to have a slaughter and hatred and violence in our hearts, Lord. In Jesus name 702 01:16:12,370 --> 01:16:32,980 we pray, Amen.
