when people followed Muhammad attitude and approach it turn out to be the other way around.

As I continue to search knowledge, I feel Mohammad had a false dream...........and now they are waiting for Mahdi. To me much of what Mahdi will do parallels the anti-Christ.
But as far as "End Times"..........no one knows when and I think it's sad that so many are focused on this "rapture" thing when all should just be walking in the way of the Lord and following his commandments.
Enjoy life that God gave you and walk in his ways.
Peace be with you.
The Apocalypse Of Saint John
Chapter 22
16 I Jesus have sent my angel, to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the root and stock of David, the bright and morning star. 17 And the spirit and the bride say: Come. And he that heareth, let him say: Come. And he that thirsteth, let him come: and he that will, let him take the water of life, freely. 18 For I testify to every one that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book: If any man shall add to these things, God shall add unto him the plagues written in this book. 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from these things that are written in this book. 20 He that giveth testimony of these things, saith, Surely I come quickly: Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

It's because you've been fed a mistaken (certainly a skewed) view of both Christianity *and* Islam. The majority of the followers of Muhammad are as peaceful as the majority of the followers of Jesus. But there have also been Christians who have bombed medical clinics and beaten up gays "in God's name." Few religions are immune to violence, but the Christian vs. Muslim history is particularly rife with violence on both sides, and shame on that violence from either source.

For peace, I hope you are right about Christ followers and wrong about Muhammad followers. Can you do more research on it?

True peace comes only from a relationship with Jesus Christ. Or back in the 70s from drugs...but that doesn't last.

Ever heard of the Crusades and Inquisition? Both Christianity and Islam are peaceful religions, but there are always going to be those who misuse or grossly misundestand those religions.

Wow that is so closed minded.
My brother met a wonderful, kind and loving Islamic woman. He married her and converted to Islam.
I have been to Lebanon and met her whole family.
I have never been made to feel so loved and welcomed in my whole life.
It is not religion that makes people like this. It is closed mindedness. It is greed. It is the manipulation by powerful and greedy people who use religion as a cover for their wrong-doings.
This happens in all religions and in all walks of life.
To be so closed minded as to blame one race or religion..... This is what starts wars... Namely holy wars.
Shame on you.

That's not true. Followers of Christianity and Islam are equally capable of being either peaceful or warlike, depending on how they interpret what is written in their holy books.

that maybe true but let's not treat muslims like that. if people follow Jesus they will truly have a peaceful life with God, even if there is persecution I and other true christians will still follow Jesus

Lets see, Jizyah tax of unbelievers---a form of intolerance
Beheading of non believers---extreme form of intolerance.
Remember Islam is a religion of peace---or somebody might get hurt.

The crusades began with the slaughter of Jews in Europe in their tens of thousands before the crusades entered Jerusalem after a 40 day siege and in 1099 massacred men. women and children.
The Jews of Jerusalem faced the same fate as Greeks, Coptic, Syrian, Armenian who were taken from churches and tortured.
The crusaders boiled Muslims in cooking pots, roasted children on spits, and roamed the countryside hunting for pagan saracens.
Fast forward to 20th Century Europe and Catholic Croats forcibily convertied serbian orthodox christians during WW2 by Ustashi Gestapo. Muslims were massacared in Bosnia.
Christians took millions of Africans into slavery
Look at recent history in Northern Ireland - bombs, killings, punishment beatings by one group of christians on another.
Christians in Nigeria raping, burning alive muslims, same in indonesia, in south america governments supported by catholic church money and in Spain Franco supported by Catholic Church.
Explain.......
But those mine enemies, which would not that i should reign over them, bring hither, and SLAY them before me.
