Islam in the United States is making the case that it is the universal religion. The Council on American Islamic Relations, an un-indicted co-conspirator in the infamous Holy Land Foundation terrorist money laundering trial, is conducting a campaign that claims anyone who submits to god is Muslim. During the month of January in several southern cities, the campaign posted billboards and bus signs claiming Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Mohammed were Muslim. According to the South Florida Sun Sentinel the signs read:
"ISLAM: The Way of Life of Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad."The Sun Sentinel reports that Altaf Ali, director of CAIR's South Florida chapter, said,
"We owe it to our fellow Americans to let them know that Islam stands for peace. Muslims are here and Muslims are part and parcel of the United States."Ali said the ad accurately describes Abraham, Moses and Jesus. Ali claims,
"A Muslim is anyone who submits their will to God. By that definition Abraham and all the prophets are Muslim because they submitted their will to God."These signs and others like them were placed in Portland, Oregon, San Antonio, Texas, and Tampa Bay and Orlando, Florida. WorldNetDaily has reported that CAIR also has a campaign to put materials in American libraries that promote Sharia Law.
Dr. Gary Cass, one-time right hand man for the venerable D. James Kennedy, now heads the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission. Cass says this is...
"a brazen attempt to label Christianity a false faith which ostensibly began when the followers of Jesus corrupted his "Islamic" teachings! Nothing could be further from the truth. Islam is not the religion of Jesus. In fact, Islam denies that Jesus is the Son of God."Cass says,
"Now we're confronted by a devilish undertaking so malicious and so evil that we absolutely must defeat it here and now. Because not only is CAIR slandering our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ by claiming He was a Muslim, they are trying to win converts to Islam through their lies about Jesus!"Sad as it may seem, many Americans who claim to be Christians will be taken in by this Islamic lie. From the last two presidents of the United States - George W. Bush and the current President - Americans are told that Muslims, Jews and Christians worship the same god. And many pastors attempt to teach the same from their pulpits. This is simply a lie. History would indicate that Mohammed invented Islam after hijacking Allah, the Lord of the Kaaba, the pagan temple in Mecca. He hijacked a god to create his religion, now his followers are doing the same to the Jews and Christians. Jesus said in John 14:6,
"I am the way, the truth and the life; no man comes unto the Father but by Me."You cannot be Christian and believe otherwise.
