What happens when devout Muslims hear about Jesus?

As the radical Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram continues its rampage of death and destruction in Nigeria, a global radio ministry is receiving miraculous testimonies of salvation in the midst of terror.

The Tide radio ministry, an international outreach committed to worldwide evangelism and discipleship that "aims to lead as many people as possible into a life-transforming relationship with Jesus Christ," broadcasts its program in the official language of Islam in Nigeria.

Shenk

Director Don Shenk tells OneNewsNow his organization is hearing amazing news.

"The most debase, calloused killer God can reform," Shenk asserts.

For example, The Tide has heard from a man who was a devout Muslim and belonged to Boko Haram. While listening to the radio, "he hears about Jesus Christ, and he hears something that's different than the message that he has learned all his life.He turned and actually gave his life to Christ," the ministrys director reports. "He went and purchased a Bible and began studying the Bible." http://www.onenewsnow.com/missions/2015/03/23/what-happens-when-devout-muslims-hear-about-jesus#.VRZF3pV0z4o

What happens when a Muslim reads about God telling someone to kill their baby to prove that they love God more than their baby? Or when they read about a father who is willing to let his daughters be violently raped just to save a stranger who happens to be a man? I'm sure that doesn't end well. The bible is filled with sick and twisted crap.

So, there's nothing sick and twisted about telling someone "kill your baby to prove you love me"? And there's nothing wrong with glorifying a man who was willing to sacrifice his daughters in the most horrific way possible, for the good of a complete stranger? Wow. It's not atheists that the public needs to be weary of, it's anyone who agrees with that.

The story of Lot is just one of many ways that scripture identified women as subservient to men. This concept starts at the very beginning of the bible, and permeates the entire thing with language sometimes overt and sometimes thinly veiled. For a book so universally accepted as a work of divine perfection to include such heinous and vile plot lines is incomprehensible. The Koran has not nothing on the Bible when it comes to contemptuous and inherently immoral parables.

Lot was never glorified. He was always making wrong choices and after being spared the destruction of Sodom and making yet another mistake, is never heard from in the Bible again.

Dude! Never glorified!?, another mistake!?, never heard from in the Bible again?

That "other mistake", you know the one where he getshis two daughters pregnant, led to a whole frecking nation, oneblessed &mentioned by the Big Guy itself. The Moabites.

Deuteronomy 2:9 KJV:

Yahweh said to me, "Don't bother Moab, neither contend with them in battle; for I will not give you of his land for a possession; because I have given Ar to the children of Lot ...

Then of course there's Ruth, one of the decedents of Lot's incest, who was King David's what, Great Grandmother?

I guess Hal has a point.

Just another in a long line of inbred freaks. But what do you expect when you start out with just two people?

Yes, it was just perfect - with man being made first, and totally from scratch (aka dirt), and in the image of God, who of course is a man himself. Our perfect creator couldn't be troubled to extend the same courtesy to women, so he just hacked a chunk off of the perfect man and made it a woman - to make it clear that the existence of the woman was entirely dependent on the existence of the man (aka subservience). Perfection, from a man's point of view anyway. For woman, not so much ... but who gives a crap about women anyways? They're just there to take care of the man and make babies, as any good Christian knows.

How do you hate something that doesn't exist? Do you hate Krampus? Or do you just find it to be a silly bit of fiction?

Anyone who believes that the earth is about 6000 years old is willfully ignorant and in denial of physical,chemical, anthropological and geologic data, period.

They're just there to take care of the man and make babies,

These days they're just here to sleep their way to the top & steal money from men with false sexual harassment lawsuits ... Why doesn't someone come up with a mythology to deal with that ?
