    Default My Church Is Sending Missionaries to Europe to Evangelize The Muslim Refugees

    One of those missionaries came back on furlough and was surprised how receptive the refugees were to the message of Jesus Christ. There was a common mindset that Islam had failed them. Someone asked "What if some of those are radicalized Muslims?" His response was that a greater sinner just needs more grace which means they need Jesus even more than the others.

    My question to those who would discriminate against Muslims is this: Do you somehow fall short of the glory of God less than they do? Because you're not a Muslim, do you somehow need Jesus Christ less than they do?

    Romans 3:23

    For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

    King James Version (KJV)

    And the best part is - Nobody needs to be evangelized. Christ's work is done. I hope through christ's teachings, however, those folks want-less to kill people.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    Well let's see now. They were surprised at 'how receptive' the Muslims were. Hmmm......I wonder. Have those missionaries ever heard of Taqiyya?

    This thread and all its diverse replies, are good indicators that we all see exactly what we want to see from the same set of facts.

    I'm pretty sure context is a real word.

    the circumstances that form the setting for an event, statement, or idea, and in terms of which it can be fully understood and assessed.
    Yup it is. The words from Jesus were taken out of context in the attempt to make a point from a completely different thread.
