Help! Ramadan is in my house.

Just telling you what the bible says. and those that thought He was a prophet were called followers and believers.

What the Bible says is not even close to what the quran says, so I dont understand your point.

She isn't praying to God if she's an idolater. God calls idolatry wickedness. I wouldn't want one of them praying under my roof. I have personal experience with the cursed liar that wants to be exalted as God using the name that Muslims use.

God can change her heart, try praying with persistence and faith that she comes to Christ. Perhaps ask God to put her in great tribulation to put the fear of God in to her. If not, contact your local authority and have her moved to a more appropriate location to live with other idolaters.

She's just a typical teenager trying to find her way. Seriously, I would cut her a little slack. How can moving her to another home possibly help her choose the correct spiritual path? Unless she is exposed to a decent Christian who is on the right spiritual path she may never again have the opportunity to know, understand and embrace the Word of God. The kid is certainly not an idolater. The most appropriate location is the one that she currently is living.

If she's not interfering with your life in her religious practices, I see no problem. She is a teen after all, so she has to check things out.

Now, if she has to eat stuff I won't/don't/never gonna happen, since she is state-placed, I'd think the state ought to pay for her choices. Say, she has to eat dandelions and a fatted lamb. Sorry, no can do. Dandelions taste disgusting, and I can't afford a lamb, once more do I want to have to cook the animal. That kind of thing. Not, something small like chitlins. (Don't ask, if you don't know. lol) But one of the kids in our group home wanted chitlins, so we had chitlins. He was eating it alone the next time though. lol

If she has to get out a rug and pray, two places she's not doing that -- in the middle of my kitchen and in the middle of my living room. Mostly because it interferes with foot traffic, and if that's where a person wants to do that, they're doing it for show and nothing else. But in her bedroom? Not a problem. I wouldn't even mind in the hallway as long as she's not blocking off the bathroom. (I'm very practical. lol)

And then in the right time, I would talk to her about her choices. More of a hear her out, than a "my way or the highway" talk. But, there would definitely be a cross-exchange on my views vs. her views. Ultimately, her decision, but the only way to make a good decision is to understand the decision being made.

I'd never force anyone into Christianity. (Well, not exactly true. I would, if I could, it's just that I know forcing someone is going to stop them from wanting Christ.) But rest assure, what I believe about God would come out, and does come out any day of the week. Whether someone hears it or not, I can guarantee God is working it out his own way, even if I never see the end result.

Isn't that about what you signed up for when choosing to become a foster mom. How likely did you expect the chances of seeing end result were, since she's a teen and will be living on her own at 18?

I have to spread rep around before giving it to you :/

The OP is doing what she is supposed to be doing and her post has been addressed

let her decide if this is offending her

Really? So I can use your living room as a bathroom and let you decide whether I'm offensive? Your rules after all.

Is the TRUTH what you consider to be bathroom talk?

how do I even respond to such a post as this?

and no you aren't invited into my living room to use as a bathroom
as you should since you claim to know the TRUTH be able to make a right judgement to begin with

 

[miknik5]

Somebody will have to explain to me how the TRUTH of THE GOSPEL is offemsive

YOUR rules

not mine

dont attribute to me what is in your own heart

 

[miknik5]

The Quran is not a testimony to the truth
and in fact paints Christians as false witnesses to THE TRUTH

Alas, subtleness isn't my forte'. I was trying to be "ladylike," but I just don't make it.

Let's try it the way I really wanted to say it. YOU are crapping in her living room and waiting around until she tells you it's not cool! Seriously? You can't figure out it's not cool on your own? I'm not buying it, or you wouldn't be wondering out loud if it were.

Start a post to bicker all you want about the Quaran. Just don't pretend it's okay to take over a thread until you're told it's not.

This is common sense and biblical. Also "TRUTH!"

Forgive me if I don't take directions from you

let us never forget that our Christ never forgot His manners -
much assurance/security comes into our hearts when we remember this...

If you've got someone praying to God's enemy under your roof, you're inviting trouble.

Got the list of who that is? No?

Then why assume Toi's foster daughter isn't on that list in the future? Isn't Toi doing what she's supposed to be doing? Truth be known, we should all be doing what she is doing!

And then ponder the next question hard -- what's holding you back? I triple-dog-dare you to check her out and then do that.

God's book of life has those names in, I don't have access to read it.

Why is it always the women who think like this? The same ones who end up getting raped and found in a ditch.

Hey guess what, idolaters don't go to heaven. And God has absolutely no problem with dead children.

Deuteronomy 3:6 And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of every city.

Really? You are being all kinds of rude to Toi, by using her post as your personal playground, and yet your sarcasm to me is pretend a fake forgiveness? That's not knowing God's word. That's inventing what you want to make you front and center at all cost.

Not often do I say this, but you are no Christian. You simply think you should be bowed down to. What God wants isn't even on your radar.

Off to ignore land, Pompous One.

 

[miknik5]

I have no idea what you are saying

 

[Rockrz]

God's Word says to be angry and sin not (if ya come across something that makes you mad, don't sin over it)

Jesus was not using what most people call good manners when he turned over the money changers tables and ran those boys out of church!

And, Paul was not using what most people call good manners when he kick the guy out of church that was doing his Dad's wife (it doesn't say if it was his step mom or real mom)

Yeah, sometimes God dishes out correction in such way that it makes people mad and later when they calm down maybe they'll go to the Lord in prayer and ask to be taught which He will gladly do at that point.

Off to ignore land, Pompous One.

Have fun

You have a very bright future as a democrat politician... none of them know what's going on either

 

[Katy-follower]

“I don't really like that it is prayed to any other God than our Heavenly Father in my home.”

Not sure I understand that comment – the God of Abraham and Isaac is the same God of Ishmael. Judaism, Christianity and Islam all worship the same God no matter how he is referred to in different beliefs.

Just because the methods of worship are different than yours does not make them somehow wrong (or evil, etc., etc.)

Or are you asserting that the God of the OT is a different deity than that of the NT and therefore she's not worshiping the same God you do??

No, Allah is 'another' god. Notice the small g. Satan being the "god" of this world.


2 Cor 4:3-4: But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them"

John 4:23-24: "But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”


The Jews believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob, but they reject Jesus as their Messiah. And Jesus is the ONLY way, truth and life. No one can come to the Father except through Him (John 14:6).

Ephesians 4 actually says more about it

Correction

what thus poster said qualifies as coarse language
and no she had no right to be angry at all
