Don't really care what others think or believe........BUT I can assure all here that WILL NOT happen in my church.......the ONLY WAY the Koran will ever be mentioned in my church is as an example of false teachings.............

(guess I just made someone's death list..........but, oh well............)

There is no comment on any Scriptural readings on either the Israeli or Vatican press release. All parties will sing a song of their distinctive cultures and then offer a prayer in recognition of God's creative power and ask for.peace and forgiveness. This article takes additional liberties and insinuations.

Islam pray to Allah, Catholic pray to Mary and Jesus, Jew pray to Jehova.

ThomastColin....don't you see any possible difficulties with this set up....Christ and Islam are incompatible.....Christ is the Son of God, Islam denies this. The central Truth of Christianity is that Christ died on Calvary, ONCE for the forgiveness of sins. Islam denies that Christ died at all. It's a total corruption of the Truth about the only way of Salvation and it leads people to a lost eternity.
How can a Christian leader not vehemently oppose such a Satanic doctrine. Peace at any cost is not Peace. Islam NEVER brings peace anywhere, it cannot. It's roots are in Ishmael, and " He will be a wild man... and his hand will be against all men and the hand of all men will be against him."

This is not peace at all costs. This is simply showing a compassionate hand. Remember, war is always a last resort.
