| THE
SUMMARY |
JESUS
| CHRISTIANITY |
MUHAMMAD
| ISLAM |
| The God of Jesus
Christ sent His Son to die for you. |
The god of Muhammad
demands that you send your son to die for him. |
"When the threat of death becomes a door to paradise, the
final barrier to temporal risk is broken.
When a Christian says from the heart, "To live is Christ and to die is
gain," he is free to love no matter what.
Some forms of radical Islam may entice martyr-murderers with similar dreams,
but
Christian hope is the power to love, not kill. Christian hope produces life-givers,
not life-takers."

serve the LORD,
choose you this day whom ye will serve; ...
but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."
(JOS 24:15)
