“Especially if it involves Jesus being the Son of God, since the Koran declares multiple times that Allah has no son”

allah (I refuse to capitalize the curse of a name) is an the pagan moon “god” of the Nabateans , a heathen idol.

Psalms 96:3) Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.

(Psalms 96:4) For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.

(Psalms 96:5) For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.

I love this verse in Proverbs :)

(Proverbs 30:4) Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son’s name, if thou canst tell?

This is the time to speak unashamedly about Christianity.
I just ordered a Celtic Cross pendant and intend to wear daily.
Make no mistake, I want everyone to know I’m a Christian and mean it.

I guess I know who’s in charge of that *church*, and it isn’t Jesus.

This is the same line of thinking that says”spread the Gospel, use words if necessary”. Pure Satanic claptrap.

What faith? I thought they gave that up a long time ago.

The Church of England must regard itself as a social club. Paul had written in Romans 1:16 that he is not ashamed of the gospel for it is the power of God for everyone who believes.

In fact, John 6:27-69 shows that Jesus had gone into high gear expressing his faith in order to discourage non-believers from following him.

There are more relics of old dead churches in Britain then working ones. Christianity is on the way out across the pond and the majority does not seem to care. The media has killed everyone.

Excerpt from Luke, Chapter 5: ". . .and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick. He told them: 'Take nothing for the journey - no staff, no bag, no bread, no money, no extra shirt. Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave that town. If people do not welcome you, leave their town and shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them. So they set out and went from village to village, proclaiming the good news and healing people everywhere."

This is Christianity’s death-spiral.
Bishop and pastors who say this are already memorizing the Shahada.
Shame on those cowards.

We should live so that people know we are Christians they can respect and admire without having to say a word, but we should also speak out about the Gospel and spread God’s word using God’s words. He chose His words wisely, and that is a huge advantage over using our own words or no words at all.

Christians provide the “talk” while the Mohammedans provide the “action”.

The gospel is supposed to be a stumbling block (1Co.1:23); otherwise, people would have no incentive to make a choice. We are instructed not to hide our lights (Mt.5:16; Lk.8:16, 11:33).
