Comment on D. James Kennedy (1930–2007) by Bob Koehler

I always loved Mr. Kennedy’s sermons on TV. I never missed a chance and always was up on Sunday morning to listen to the broadcast of his fabulous sermons. I missed very few. My biggest anguish was that he was always as “identified” as “Dr.” D. James Kennedy,or D.James Kennedy “PH.D.” He did not need a “PH.D” at the end of his name to establish his qualifications as a great Preacher!! All you had to do is LISTEN to him to know who he was!! I hope I am not too nit-picking’ about this, as there are thousands of great preachers out there who have no “PH.D” after their names and they deliver great sermons every Sunday morning!

Comment on Rev. Ann Holmes Redding: Christian and Muslim by luvGod1st

Ann and Char, I was raised Anglican (Canada’s equivalent of Episcopalian). I also was led to look beyond what was presented to me, to look for truth. My search through many religions’ beliefs eventually led me to accepting the Bible, rather than the Anglican version of Christianity. I came to believe in Jesus the way the Bible says. What others said above about that you can not be a Christian and a Muslim at the same time is true. Something I copied on Muhammad vs. Jesus

Jesus taught people to repent and correctly practice the faith of Israel and to pray to the God of Israel (YHWH).
Muhammad taught people to obey the faith of the pagans and to pray not to the God of Israel (YHWH) but to Allah.

Jesus taught to love and forgive one’s enemies and to put down the sword.
Muhammad taught to attack, kill and torture his enemies.

Jesus healed anyone who came to him and gave life to the dead.
Muhammad healed no one but took away people’s lives.

Jesus’ words shortly before dying: “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they do”.
Muhammad’s words before death-”KILL the Jews and Christians…”

Deborah do you think “love your neihbor” means have sex with him or her? I’m no expert on the Bible but God does tell us 1 man 1 woman. Please don’t discount God’s wisdom He loves us and wants what’s best for us all.

He did say “love your neighbor” but He didn’t say if it feels good do it. God never changes despite the prevailing winds that sway people.

Comment on How Much Do Pastors Make? by Leonard

Tithing is easy to understand. Someone has to pay for the operating costs of a church. Mortgage companies, insurance companies, electric companies, heating oil companies, sewer companies, water companies, phone companies, and hardware stores operate don’t accept faith as payment.

You cannot be both a christian & a follower of islam.I repeat YOU CANNOT BE BOTH A CHRISTIAN & A FOLLOWER OF ISLAM.Jesus preached love & compassion.He preached for you to love your neighbor as you would yourself.He preached to turn the other cheek….The religion of Islam preachs that the best act for you to in the name of Alah is to die in holy war.It is not a religion.It is a deadly cult,it is of pure evil.to say that jesus and muhamad(sic) serve the same god is crazy.muhamad was a thief,mass murder,sadistic,pedephil,rapist,vile and sick pervert.a person would have to be brain damaged to believe in any book that says that the sun sets in a mud puddle and that it is ok to marry a 6 year old kid & be able to have sex with her at the age of 9…that is not the work of a prophet but of a pervert.

I have been trying to find a an email for Ann, but I hope she reads this. I am an Episcopalian and am quite disturbed that the canons of our church are defined so narrowly. I totally support your move and am deeply saddened that you had to be defrocked in order to practice both faiths. I see you symbolically standing in the heart of Jerusalem bringing both Islam and Christianity together. I have deep empathy for your situation. God and Allah go with you!
