Comments on: Is It Loving to Share Jesus Christ with a Muslim? http://studyseesavor.wordpress.com/2008/11/11/is-it-loving-to-share-jesus-christ-with-a-muslim/ "Think over what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in everything." 2 Timothy 2:7 Sat, 19 Sep 2009 03:48:51 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: coldfire http://studyseesavor.wordpress.com/2008/11/11/is-it-loving-to-share-jesus-christ-with-a-muslim/#comment-73 coldfire Tue, 11 Nov 2008 22:01:59 +0000 http://studyseesavor.wordpress.com/?p=151#comment-73 I don't usually like Piper, but let me give my side of this here: He suggests in number 8 to "warn them with tears" that they will end up in Hell of if they don't choose Christ. You are asking a Muslim then to choose between a future hell and a hell on earth where they are rejected by their families. Furthermore, where are these muslims to worship? Can they continue to worship in the Mosque, or is the 'true God' not found in the mosques? Can they pray in the mosques' but change out the word Allah for Jesus? What about their cultural Muslim traditions like Ramadan where they will be ostracized by their communities for eating during the time of fasting?
