Can a good Muslim be a good American?



That question was

forwarded to a person that worked in Saudi Arabia for 20 years.





The

following is his forwarded reply:





Theologically - no. Because his

allegiance is to Allah, the moon God of Arabia.



Religiously - no. Because

no other religion is accepted by his Allah except Islam (Quran,

2:256)



Scripturally - no. Because his allegiance is to the five pillars…

"The trial of your faith."

1 Peter 1:7

Faith untried may be true faith, but it is sure to be little faith, and it is likely to remain dwarfish so long as it is without trials. Faith never prospers so well as when all things are against her: tempests are her…

Growing up Jesus.



Howdy.



As a classroom teacher, it was an exhilarating feeling to recognize when I had a brilliant student sitting under my tutelage. Even as I type, various young faces come to mind with their inquisitive minds, probing questions and keen insights. These were the students who really kept me on my toes, endeavoring to answer their questions, and keep a challenge ever before them. Can you imagine being the teacher or rabbi teaching Jesus in the little…

I will be still, and I will behold in my dwelling place (Isaiah 18:4, RV).

Assyria was marching against Ethiopia, the people of which are described as…

I AM WHO I AM.     

And to think, I still had the words in my mouth about the dreams God sent to Joseph to care for Jesus, the coming and then newborn Savior of the…

Oh the irony of this mortal situation,

being encased in this temporary flesh.

For I’m momentarily bound to this earth,

although I anticipate my heavenly journey.

At the moment of Christ’s crucifixion,

the temple curtain was torn in two by God,

ripping it from the top to its bottom,

which signified His personal invitation…

for unhindered, one-on-one interaction.

And yet I yearn to feel His presence,

knowing that my sin keeps us separated.…

The best way to demonstrate wisdom,

is speak with kindness and insight.

Develop the habit of faith and prayer

to truly strengthen one’s inner light.

Hidden intentions of men’s hearts,

are plainly visible before the Lord.

Honorable actions with Godly answers

show how one remains in holy accord…

from committing one’s life unto Him.

Understanding self’s true motivation,

while allowing God to guide one’s…

Help me Lord, to acknowledge those

who labor within my sphere of influence,

for they too deserve my prayers for them.



Help me Lord, to lovingly admonish those

who lack a proper sense of discipline,

for like me, they require spiritual guidance.



Help me Lord, to quietly comfort those

who seek cooperation and genuine fairness,

that serves all of my neighbors equally.



Help me Lord, to forgivingly tolerate those

who are stronger…

The Trinity – beautiful community. Matthew 1 – 2



Several nights ago, I went to mass in New York City’s theatre district at St. Malachy’s Church, which actually refers to itself as The Actors’ Chapel. The beautiful old church, built in 1909, is wedged between theatres and restaurants. In the evening worship service, the priest even offered prayers for those in the entertainment industry—which, when you think about it, is a…

The Lamb of God has made a way for us, He has even set a table for us in the wilderness to come and eat with Him, but at times we may not feel able or even dressed right for this occasion of the beloved. Repentance is still required, even as believers we still have to repent reg, so that we can still enter into fellowship with the Lord, . Be holy even as I am holy is it poss. only He knows only He can make us able to come before Him,  what do you think is needed, or is it that we can do…

Please pray for the salvation of one of my friends named Pushpa. At first she was ready to do ministry in all the churches, but her parents belong to a cult, which preaches that their church is the bride of Jesus and all other churches are harlot. Pray that she will come out of this pit.

Right now there is a situation to make her stay in this cult forever. Please pray that this situation would be broken. And she would become free to attend any church. She has also been taught…
