Because they are not following the Holy Spirit, but the religious spirit. The church leadership had no discernment and is being deceived. How many of them signed up as part of clergy response team?? (Not positive either)

Chrislam. All i can say is our fellowship WON'T. Christianity and Islam are two totally different things. I know already too much about other paths-but that was my walk before Christ. Then i was going to some Biblical training/courses, and one was on Islam. I said i could not take that course even if it costs me the 3-4 yrs i put into studies. The dean was shocked, because i was willing to forfeit those years of study to not take that one course. i thought, i am not ministering directly to Muslims, so why would i need that also? Then not long after, i was driving down the road, and this happens often enough. Suddenly i heard "you must take this course so that when the BELIEVERS are being deceived you can tell them what you learned." to warn them away from this mishmosh of syncretism. Yeah, i then learned of various doctrinal aspects including "taqiyya", etc. Also ANYTHING that their founder did, as way of lifestyle, is to be imitated to the 'nth degree by his followers. So, look up his life story-that will speak for itself. Not gonna go into the "sword verses" or "abrogation". This is playing with dynamite. What happens when you play with dynamite?? We are seeing exactly what was foretold for the last days. As a side note: any woman who thinks Islam is "good" for her is either in a palace living the "bougie" life and/or greatly deceived. How come none of those "liberated" Western women protest the abuse of women in Islam? Show me even one example. Then compare the life of Jesus and how He treated women. He addressed them with love, respect, and as a PERSON. In the culture of that day, women were non-persons.This, too, speaks for itself....
