Yes, I expect that is what he is talking about. But the RC is a church to itself, not part of "Christendom". And the Bible makes no mistake about it, those who harm children will suffer awful retribution for it.
No. That is not what I am talking about. I believe it is just your opinion that Roman Catholic Church is not part of Christendom.

Magenta, what about the atrocities happening in Christendom today? I do not think your assertion about Islam is right considering that our Christendom does not fare better.
Our book does not tell us to kill our enemies. Their's does. Big difference, regardless of how Christian adherents behave.

If you have never compared Mohammed to Jesus, I suggest you do so.

Mohammed was an illiterate, adulterous, war mongering pedophile. That is who Islam idolizes and follows.

The RC's consider themselves the universal church, anyone outside them is not saved. They do not consider themselves part of anything other body. That is their opinion, not mine.

First, thank you for stating why you disagreed with my post.

Yes I know Islam as a religion does not believe in the fatherhood of God, the Trinity and Incarnation but that does not mean we do not serve the same God.

You may be wrong about their edicts because I know they preach and teach all those things you mentioned. However, teaching and practicing or embracing them as virtues to be lived in daily life are two different things. Same in Christendom. The bible tells us what God requires from us and most of us end up believing and doing the opposite.

I believe, as Peter said in Acts 10:35, that in every nation, he that fears God and walks righteously is accepted with Him.

Jesus was very clear we are to be in relationship with Him, personal, vital, ongoing relationship with Him.
Most "Christian" churches talk about the Creator and the Trinity, yet don't talk with Him and to Him, this is the "outward form of godliness denying the power thereof"" He spoke of in His final instructions to His own, He also taught that His Own would do greater works than these" meaning His own works here, we are seeing them now, those who are born again, Holy Spirit filled and walking in personal, vital, relationship.
I recently was directed to a muslim couple, Holy Spirit manifested through me as He does to the point the bride stepped away a few feet, I explained I carry the Holy Spirit of the living G-d and He manifests through me.
This was outside their experience and His way of reaching them.
There will be no excuses when we stand before the Father on that judgement day for each of us.
There is ONE way, ONE truth, and One life, no other way to heaven than through Jesus.
Jesus doesn't guide anyone to destroy, maim, beat, torture, etc. the fruit of knowing Him and walking with him is in Galatians 5, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self control.

Are you saying Christians do not murder, kill, rape fornicate, indulge in human trafficking, adultery etc etc. What the op said is not peculiar to Islam alone. Man's inhumanity to man cuts across borders and religions unfortunately, christianity inclusive.


Yes, I'm saying exactly that! Christians don't murder, 10 Commandments ring a bell. They don't rape, fornicate, adultery etc.etc. No, they don't. If you're a Christian you follow the Word and ALL of that is forbidden. The Muslim religion is not like Christianity in the least. It is a violent, anti-Christ, and demonic "religious system". The good news is many are having dreams of a man named Jesus Christ and are coming out of that terrible bondage.

We do not serve the same God! Not even close. And if you don't have a better understanding than that you need to be saved.

You have twisted this verse utterly out of context. That is talking about the ministry to the Gentiles. Muslims do not believe in God they believe in allah, a false deity.

I hear you, but it is not a new concept. God will protect those in covenant with Him. Always. That is His promise to us.
GOD was also with DANIEL WHEN THE JEWS WAS taken and put in captivity, But he still had to suffer being put in captivity, and his freedom being took from him, and seeing all of his people killed, GOD people SUFFER BECAUSE OF SIN IN THIS WORLD ALSO,THE diseases, sicknesses, HUNGRE, DEFORM CHILDREN, WE are suffering more then most people think, THE PEACE THAT GOD PUTS IN HIS CHILDRENS HARTS IS WHAT HELPS US A LOT. GOD BLESS AS GOD SEES GOOD FOR YOU ALL, SINCERELY William

But God did protect him because he kept the covenant?

Psalm 91 teach us that 10 000 will fall around you but God will protect you.

Wow! this is news to me. hearing it for the first time. Though I do not know how the Holy Spirit used you, I am aware that the Pentecostals are more into performance of Miracles than the RC. These acts of miracles are prevalent and are seen every now and then on cable news etc. Why should the Priests be surprised?

Oh! kaylagrl. Let's be honest and put sentiments apart.
