Many Christians, Muslims aren’t really true believers

The recent column, “Admit more Muslims,” makes some interesting points but doesn’t go to the real truth behind Islam. The true Muslims are the terrorists because the Koran says to kill the infidels, which means anyone who doesn’t believe and obey the Koran and the teachings of Mohammed.

Just as in Christianity, the majority of those who call themselves Muslims are not Muslims at all. Islam means submission and that means to obey everything the Koran tells them to do. The terrorists are attempting to do just that.

Christians are to obey the commands of Christ, and Jesus said to love your enemies and that those who live by the sword will die by the sword so the majority of those who call themselves Christians are no Christians at all.

True Christians will love their enemies, won’t use weapons and will never return evil for evil. They will also obey the government and pay their taxes and respect all authority.

This is true of all religions, and all anyone has to do is to go back to the origin of any of these religions and find out what the founder said and did.

The majority of Christian denominations don’t go by what Jesus said and therefore are not Christian at all. The same is true for Islam and Muslims. I have met many nice people who call themselves Muslims, but they are not really Muslims at all because they do not obey the teachings of Mohammed and the Koran.

In the end the only true religion is taught in the New Testament of the Bible and the words of Jesus. He said He is the Son of God, that He would die for our sins and that He would raise from the dead on the third day, and that’s exactly what He did.
