The True Religion Of Peace
By Doug Patton
October 9, 2006
Page 2 of 2
Consider the radical Christianity displayed through the long, sacrificial life of Mother Theresa as she ministered to the forgotten dregs of humanity, and then contrast it with the doctrine of those who would fly airplanes into buildings and behead those who disagree with them.
Islamic radicals follow a leader who told them to kill any who would not convert to Islam. Christian radicals follow a leader who laid down His own life to save all of humanity. In which civilization do you want your children and grandchildren to live? Those are truly the choices with which we are faced. Which culture will you defend?
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord Jesus Christ, for His is the true religion of peace.
