Interesting....

Some might say, the converts from the darkest pits of hell that is lslam to the glorious freedom in Christ are the most fervent in their faith...

I don’t agree with their methods, but considering the Apostle Paul was an in your face type of preacher....

The most important part is they are converts from Islam, which is death sentence...so they take their faith seriously as opposed to most Christians...

“Some might say, the converts from the darkest pits of hell that is lslam to the glorious freedom in Christ are the most fervent in their faith...”

Some might. But then again there are non-Muslims converts to Christianity who are as fervent as this guy and they don’t barge into someone else’s church to harass people.

“I don’t agree with their methods, but considering the Apostle Paul was an in your face type of preacher....”

Did Paul ever preach against non-Jews INSIDE their own temples? He had a right to enter synagogues and debate his fellow Jews, but he never entered the temples of non-Jews.

“The most important part is they are converts from Islam, which is death sentence...so they take their faith seriously as opposed to most Christians...”

No, the most important part is that they are sinning by encouraging orthodox Christians to commit apostasy and committing a form of blasphemy. The fact that they once lived in almost total darkness does not excuse the fact that they are now living in lesser darkness while claiming to be the only ones possessing the Light. The fact that they are idiots too doesn’t help. Don’t defend stupid. Don’t defend sin.

You might be right.....they took Islam seriously prior to their conversion to Jesus.....The congregation might better have invited them to take a seat among them instead of asking that they leave....I don’t think Jesus would have evicted them....

The diciples brought a similar event to Jesus....as follows....

Luke 9:49,50
“Master,” said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we tried to stop him, because he is not one of us.”.........”Do not stop him,” Jesus said, “for whoever is not against you is for you.”

Then they NEED to take their fervency not to a bunch of Catholics worshipping Christ Most High—no matter how other Christians think it is doing so wrongly—but back to the Mosque where it is MOST needed!!!!

It is their fellow Islamics they should be concerned about the most.

Yes, it is dangerous and they may lose their lives doing so. But now their life does not belong to them, but to He who saved them.
