Public School Students Learn to Pray to Allah

What is disturbing? And why is this a sign of the times?

These things have gone on for thousands of years, the disturbing part is the fact that it's done on American soil, a once supposedly Christian nation.

This was a public school class trip learning the different cultures of religions in our society. It's the American fore fathers who wrote up the Charter of Rights where any person has the right to worship according to his own conscience. If there is anything disturbing, it would have been this Charter, as one day people who do not agree with Christianty would use this to their advantage, and rightly so.

A call for liberty is best during war time, but afterward it's a den of iniquity as we have learned in our own society, with the removal of God in the schools, and the indoctrination to children that being gay is okay, and a number of injustices that peoples have used under the banner of liberty.

I do thank God for religious liberty, but it's really choking us, it's caused us to become quiet, we say nothing. We know this to be true because we say nothing in our Churches, we let things go, because we are afraid.

Sow to the wind
and reap the whirlwind...

snuf said we let things go because we are afraid. It seems that is what we are taught is the loving way to be. Silent and tolerant. If you don't have anything nice to say etc.

But the Bible says,

"Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him."

"But as for the cowardly ... their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death."

"because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved."

When people say pray or intercede, it is often met with apathy at best and disdain at worst. It is as if prayer is not really "doing" anything. And so, people think this about prayer and call upon Christians to get "involved". Being involved takes many forms, but mostly what they mean is that "we have to do something to stop this". That something is usually something other than prayer or something else, spiritual (witnessing, preaching, etc).

Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

I wonder what the early Christians resorted to because their beloved homeland was occupied by a foreign military and their taxes were atrocious.

John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

It is not easy to follow the Lord with all your heart and it's not easy to trust Him in the midst of seemingly cataclysmic events taking place in your own homeland. But, just as the Roman Centurion and his whole family were saved, maybe the Lord has some eternal plans for Mexicans, Muslims, etc. God is bringing the mission field to us.

If we would just do what Christ said in His word Christianity would be taking the world over, But the simple fact is discipleship cost every thing and most of America is trying to get everything? The Church is married to the world. The American Church is to busy persuing happiness to be worried about Islam. We should be Persuing Christ's disciples. Laying our lives down which is love. Romans 13:8-12
Love, for the Day Is Near

8 Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for he who loves his fellowman has fulfilled the law. 9 The commandments, “Do not commit adultery,” “Do not murder,” “Do not steal,” “Do not covet,” and whatever other commandment there may be, are summed up in this one rule: “Love your neighbor as yourself. ” 10 Love does no harm to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.
11 And do this, understanding the present time. The hour has come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. 12 The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.
