True story. He taught us to love everybody. Homosexuals. Atheists. Muslims. Buddhists. Just plain everybody. He said to treat others as we would like to be treated. He said to love our neighbors. I think intentionally provoking religious conflict in the name of Jesus is absurd and flies in face of everything He taught us. I think anyone doing this is anti-Christian and harms our faith by gross misrepresentation. Jesus is the Prince of Peace. Do you agree or disagree?

If only you can convince everyone else about that, then we can have world peace, or at the very least, peace here on Y!A.
As-Salaamu Alaikum - Peace be upon you

You are quite right.Jesus did not die on the cross.He was saved by Allah the only one God .He was taken to heaven.The one who was died on the cross was another man that had a face and body similar with Jesus.Muslims love Jesus as a prophet and not as a son of God.God has no son.These facts are stated in our holy Qur'an.In Hadith stated also that Jesus will come again into this earth in a certain period before the collapse of this universe. We believe in Bible as a holy book for Christians but this book have many changes so it is not original.

Sure. I'm curious as to how you'd define "intentionally provoking religious conflict in the name of Jesus" though...

Yes, he did. This is a code I live by and I respect everybody. I don't have anything against gay people, Buddhists, Atheists, or Muslims. We have to love everybody.

AGREE
I feel ya on this. and it proves my point.
its biased people through their own prejudice who distort
and produce enemies who dont co inside with their own personal beliefs.
thats why some never discuss politics or religion. many people cant discuss these topics without tring to prove their own point of view.
and its no wonder why jesus called those who truely put their faith in him and represent his teachings throught their actions, : THE SMALL FLOCK "

Agreed. But what a fine line it is when it comes to accepting the person, and accepting their lifestyle.

100%, that is why so many are turned of of Christ, b/c His "followers" are not doing what the Bible says. We are suppose to love EVERYONE! Plain and simple!

Good for you! You are absolutely right! I wish all Christians thought that way. They'd do Jesus justice.

Matthew 10:34-39
think not that I am come to send peace on earth:
I came not to send peace, but a sword.
For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.
He that loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me, and He that loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.
He that finds his life shall lose it;
and he that loses his life for my sake shall find it.
Yes, we are to love them, but we are not to stand back and support their sin or their false religion just to keep peace. We will be persecuted for our belief and we are not to tolerate everything. We are called to be peaceful, meek and humble and to love at all times, but we are not to compromise the Word of God.
