Grand Imam of al-Azhar: What Will Heads of Churches in the US that Accept Gay Marriage Say to Jesus?
Agenzia Fides ^ | 2/24/16

Jakarta (Agenzia Fides) - The West is spreading homosexuality, and "unfortunately some Heads of Churches in the United States accept same-sex marriages. I wonder what is left of the Bible in those Churches. And what will they say in front of Jesus, peace be upon him".

With these words, Egyptian sheikh Amhed al Tayyeb, grand imam of a Sunni Islamic university Al Azhar, wanted to externalize his thinking about the choices of some American Christian groups - like the Presbyterian Church USA - that have recently changed their internal statutes in order to recognize marriages between persons of the same sex.

The statements - refer Egyptian sources consulted by Agenzia Fides - were issued by the representative of the most prestigious Sunni theological academy in Indonesia, during a meeting with questions and answers that took place at the Islamic University of Syarif Hidayatullah, in South Tangerang. The great Imam al Tayeeb also added that gay groups involved in election campaigns and the homosexual question is used as the theme to achieve political consensus

Well the imam is correct. But does he recommend we chop off their heretical heads or are the rest of us Bible believers on the behead list too?

While he is right about these apostate leaders and churches, he should be more worried about what he and moslem followers will have to say to Jesus.

The _pieceful_ religion has many laws of YHVH way more right than those that profess to follow YHVH. Those that claim Yeshua did away with His own instruction/law, have brought a curse upon themselves; it's going to get much worse than marriage, heading for the peaceful sword, here and most everywhere.

Well, they’re hardly “churches” to begin with if they embrace as “good” what Jesus roundly condemns.

Sad when an Egyptian sheikh has a better understanding of the Bible than many ministers and church officials.

When an interviewer recently called Lady Gaga the "Billy Graham of pop," she claimed,

"I'm teaching people to worship themselves."

Rom 1:25-27
25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator - who is forever praised. Amen.

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion. 
NIV

Yep.

Yeppers.

Islam began from day one as and remains aprime example of the spirit of antichrist. Everyone who trusts in it, hopes in it, will be disappointed.

Looking at our world today it looks like Satan is pushing on two fronts: Islam and trying to be “good” apart from Christ vs your-brain-falling-out liberalism and trying to be nice and tolerant, where goodness is seen as being mean or intolerant.

I haven’t read about this Imam, so, I don’t know if he advocates beheading non-Muslims. I read about him yesterday, and was amazed he so accurately describes so many churches now.
