What Every Christian Should Know About IslamBy Chuck BaldwinThe Covenant News ~ February 1, 2002
President Bush, in his State of the Union address last Tuesday night, continued to perpetuate the fallacious notion that Islam is a peaceful, tolerant religion. He said, "Let the skeptics look to Islam's own rich history - with its centuries of learning, and tolerance, and progress."
Earlier Bush said, "The Islam that we know is a faith devoted to the worship of one God, as revealed in the Holy Koran. It teaches the value and importance of charity, mercy and peace." While visiting a Mosque, Bush took off his shoes and said, "Islam is peace." Either Bush is totally naïve about the Islamic religion, or he is purposely trying to deceive the American people, because the Islamic religion is anything but peaceful or tolerant.
The Muslim religion has been a bloody, murderous religion since its inception. Mohammed built the Islamic faith on violence, coercion, and intimidation. Contrary to Bush's claim, the Koran is anything but "holy." In fact, it is among the most unholy books ever written. It blatantly and repeatedly calls for the slaughter of non-Muslim people. The Koran also encourages terrorism and plunder. Christians and Jews are specifically targeted for discrimination in the Koran. Furthermore, only communism rivals Islam in sheer numbers of people persecuted and killed.
However, President Bush is not the only professing Christian who has such a mistaken and misguided impression of the Islamic religion. In churches across the country, pastors and Christian leaders continue to echo opinions similar to those of the president's. It is incredible that the religion that, for some 15 centuries, has been the chief persecutor of Christian faith and practices should now suddenly receive such acclaim! America seems absolutely infatuated with Islam! It appears that, from a public relations perspective, the attack against the United States on September 11 was the best thing Muslims could have done to promote Islam within the U.S.
These strange and peculiar events prompted me to put together a booklet entitled, "What Every Christian Should Know About Islam." In a handy-sized format, one has the essential information he needs regarding this violent religion. Here are the facts you need to intelligently discuss this subject with your friends. Chapter titles include:
The History of Islam
The Religion of Islam
Verses from the Koran
Islamic Persecution of Christians and Jews
Islamic Beliefs about Women and Children
In this book, you will learn that Mohammed was married 16 times, and the youngest girl he married was only 7 years old. You will read that "Allah" was actually one of over 300 pagan gods that Arabs were worshipping at the time and that Mohammed picked out the moon god as his "one true god." (Hence, the crescent moon as the symbol of Islam.) You will read actual verses from the Koran and much more.
