Dear Patriots (bcc herein w/permission to forward),
NO comment from me is necessary.
Herewith, in his continuing expose exposing the WIDE
& MEANINGFUL differences between Islam and the West, author Mike Scruggs
provides us with great insight between the two and the impact their differences
are having upon the American Republic & what’s left of it.
Here again the element of ‘Diversity’, having been
introduced for Political reasons, like much else, is using religion (in this
particular case) as yet another conduit for Divisiveness.
Such Divisiveness allows these Marxist-Progressives to
pursue their own agenda & free from any opposition thanks to their Altar of
Political Correctness they have combined to create allowing for their Progeny
of Social Re-Engineering, et al, to be BUILT.
Thus, they have cloaked their real Political
Intentions having PUT most Americans upon a ‘Stool of Social Guilt’ that
suggests:
any
examination of any differences, wherein the Values and Principles of the
Original Republic are described & clearly undertaken, Revealing any
& all Detriments to it and us, is dealt with (and harshly)
in one manner or another, by these Marxist-Progressives either thru their ‘Corrective
Legislative Actions’ or via the Interference their many
Special
Interests run for them-
with
all, having been equally created from the Same Default System they
engineered to create & advance over multiple decades!
Thank you Mike for sharing &
forwarding.
We Must Separate,
Craig Maus,
President, The Confederate Society of America
PS- It is indeed- 1860 Again!

Irreconcilable
Conflicts
Part 4

There are some common
characteristics between Christianity and Islam, but ironically they make
substantial accommodation between these two worldviews impossible. One is
that both religions are not just a set of rules and cultural traditions that
are set aside six days a week. They are both total worldview religions
encompassing all areas of life. But their respective worldviews are quite
different. Another is that both religions are based on reputedly divine
revelations of truth either in the Bible or the Koran. If you argue with a
Christian about the truth of the Bible, your argument is with the Holy Spirit.
If you argue with a Muslim about the Koran, your argument is with Allah and
Muhammad. Neither Christians nor Muslims can change what they both
believe to be divine revelation. Yet the messages of the Bible and the
Koran are quite different. It is a mistake to think that the God of the
Bible and Allah are interchangeable words for the same deity. This is a
frequent deceptive claim of Muslim propagandists, but to the Biblically
informed Christian, it is very bad theology. Although the Koran mentions
Abraham, Moses, and Jesus (Isa), there are immense and irreconcilable
differences between the Isa of the Koran and the Jesus of the Bible. In
addition, the Christian concept of the Divine Trinity is blasphemy in Islam.
Furthermore, neither Biblical Christianity nor Islam is pluralistic.
Biblical salvation is based on faith in Christ alone. There is no other
name, way, or works that suffice. In Matthew 14:6, Jesus says:
“I am the way, the
truth, and the Life, no one comes to the father except by me.”
Speaking of Jesus, Paul says in Acts 4: 12:
“And there is
salvation in no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be
saved.”
A number of
Biblical verses state this same defining doctrine in other words. Only
apostates deny this doctrine. Similarly, to give allegiance to Muhammad as the
Prophet of Allah is the only way to paradise in Islam. The routes to
salvation in Christianity and Islam are mutually exclusive. Still
further, Christianity is by Biblical command evangelical and hopeful of
eventual evangelical success, and Islam is by Koranic command militantly
expansive and driven to dominate all other belief systems.
The theological
and cultural clash between Islam and Christianity is deep and irresolvable. In
addition to that, we have the obsessive Muslim Judeophobia, some example of
which appears in international news reports almost every day. Can’t we just get
along and agree to disagree peaceably? The problem with Islam is Jihad.
Its mainstream theology commands a resort to arms and coercion, when persuasion
is insufficient to achieve its revolutionary goals.
When three U.S.
Presidents describe Islam as a religion of peace and tolerance, one can only
wonder if they sincerely believe this in the light of many obvious and contrary
imperatives in the Koran, the personal example and words of Muhammad, and the
violent and coercive history of Muslim expansion. Not only is warfare
constant along the borders of Islam with other cultures, intra-Muslim warfare
between the major Shiite and Sunni sects of Islam is widespread and often
brutal. Both Sunni and Shiite Muslims embrace and respect the concept of
Jihad as holy war against all unbelievers. Their intra-Islam conflicts are
often over political dominance within Middle Eastern states. Political
leaders who endorse the counterfactual fantasy of Islam as a religion of peace
and tolerance demonstrate the unfortunate influence of misguided
multiculturalism, theological pluralism, strident secularism, and Muslim
Brotherhood propaganda.
One can only be
sympathetic, however, with the diplomatic dilemma of Western leaders in regard
to Islam. The United States and many Western countries are dependent on Middle
Eastern oil. There are over five million Muslins in the United States, four
million in Germany, five million in France, and perhaps as many in the United
Kingdom. France’s refusal to aid the United States in the Iraq War was
certainly influenced by the growing political power of North African Muslims in
France. In addition, the influential Western media is more sympathetic to its
misunderstanding of Islam than to Christianity. They prefer to believe
the myth of Islamic peace and tolerance.
One can also be
sympathetic to the Bush Doctrine that followed September 11, 2000. It was
necessary to demonstrate that harboring, encouraging, supplying, and financing
Muslim terrorists would be considered an act of war against the United States
and would be met with speedy and painful retaliation. However, we can
only wonder about the success of these endeavors and the success of Homeland
Security as well, when we refuse even to recognize or name our enemy. Terrorism
is not our enemy. Terrorism is only a method of our enemy. We are involved in a
very complex clash of civilizations. It is foolish to deny its obvious
religious connections. It is also a serious mistake to believe that the
terrorism results from a gross distortion of Islamic theology by a small
radical minority, when its predominant roots are in the mainstream of
traditional Koran-based Islamic theology that is in a cycle of resurgence.
The hope of modern
liberalism is that Christianity and Islam can be made compatible by
secularization, making Christianity nominal and Islam purely cultural.
But this would sacrifice truth and integrity to multiculturalism and make the
State god. Another secularist hope supported by constant propaganda is that
Christian orthodoxy can be marginalized. That secularist driven
multiculturalism has been relatively, if not totally successful in this, can be
seen in the decline of firm Biblical doctrines in the Church and the rapid
moral decline now so painfully evident in Western civilization.
Much is at stake
in the proper understanding of Islam in the Western world. We must not
allow ourselves to be anesthetized to the nature of Islam and multiculturalism
by false platitudes and sentimental bromides. Truth is the only high
ground.
Love, Prayers and Blessings,
Connie

Yes, very true. The God of the Bible and the god of the Koran are NOT the same person--not by a long, long shot. In fact, they are in irreconcilable conflict. Sadly, many "Christians" believe and teach the propaganda that they are the same person, too.
