‘Worship Only Jesus Christ': Woman Ejected From Muslim Prayer Gathering at National Cathedral
Christian News ^ | 11/14/14 | Heather Clark

WASHINGTON – A woman who proclaimed the name of Jesus Christ during the first-ever Islamic Jumaa prayer gathering at Washington’s National Cathedral was ejected from the building on Friday.

“Jesus Christ died on that cross over there,” the unidentified woman declared as she stood in the front of the room. “He is the reason why we are to worship only Him. Jesus Christ is our lord and savior!”

A man nearby immediately approached her and attempted to reach for her arm, but she pulled away.

“We have built, and allowed you here in mosques across this country,” she continued. “Why can’t you worship in your mosque, and leave our churches alone?”

Another man approached as she was speaking and began to escort her out.

According to reports, the woman made the declaration immediately following the opening announcements that commenced this afternoon.

And so your clinging to the Hegelian philosophy is revealed. Sorry, we are neither friends not adversaries; we are simply connections in the ether.

Go in peace...as much as your god may give to you.

God bless her. Why aren’t there a thousand Christians protesting outside the Cathedral over this? Oh we just saw they are installing the minerets on the new mosque near our neighborhood. Just great I can’t wait til they invite my priest to say a mass there.

dear unc,

There have been a growing number of Christians who fully understand the Ta’anach, and would not raise a fuss.

I believe that your rhetorical question, was thrown as an arrow, not as a question of interest.

Is it not true, that UNLIKE Judaism or Christianity, Mohammedanism, oh I’m sorry, ‘islam’, is a belief of conversion by violence?

Why such a history of defending islam here at FR then? And seemingly a common reply of yours if someone criticizes Islam.....is: well what about the Jew.

For some Christian churches are their house of worship and they properly view this as a home invasion. Is it “rude” to stand up to an invasion of your God’s home? Jesus thought not.

Nope. I’m suggesting she should have gotten a group together and protested outside. —

If she had done this, no one would have known, and we would not be having this ‘discussion’.

Yes! Some of the posts read like Jesus was European, white and Christian.

You took the thread off topic. You want to snark. Your choice.

Have a blessed day.

“If she had done this, no one would have known, and we would not be having this ‘discussion’.”

This story was picked up by Christian News. They would have picked up that one too.

I have nothing against Jews at all, never have, never will.

I see that you parse your words carefully though. You state you did not defend islamists......but I asked you why you defend islam?

“Are you suggesting she should have overturned tables, as Jesus did?”

Nope. I’m suggesting she should have gotten a group together and protested outside.


Are you suggesting Jesus should have gotten a group together and protested outside?

I believe in freedom of religion.

You will note that many of my past threads on the subject have been posting Dr Jasser’s editorials. I defend him and his right to practice his religion. I respect what he’s doing.

Why should Christians stay out of God’s house, while y’all are inside, desecrating it? (And don’t give me any more of your “we” crap. We are Christians. You’ve firmly planted your feet on the other side, and the more Gospel is presented, the more you dig in your heals in opposition.)

Jesus, God and Christians all belong in my Father’s House. You and anyone else who is there to try to tear it down don’t belong there. And you don’t get to overrule Jesus Christ on the subject of how to be a Christian either.

So true. He’s been condemning Jesus’ actions throughout this thread.

It never occurred to me before, but I just realized what “nuconvert” means.

I was baptized & confirmed a Christian. I am not a muslim.

The “we” I referred to was political....we, being Conservatives

You’ve clearly demonstrated you’re neither. You get no voice in what it means to be a Christian or a Conservative while you are actively protesting against both.
