Why would a Christian search in Mosques in the Middle East for spiritual support?
Be aware that these pictures in this article seems to have nothing to do with the security crisis in the Middle East. But only from a perspective in a human mind, who do not believe in the Spiritual war that is going on.
Islam does not acknowledge that there is a Jewish homeland in the Middle East.
If US President Barack Hussein Obama is a “friend of Israel”, what is he doing touring Mosques in Turkey, Egypt and Saudi Arabia to hunt for both spiritual wisdom and political support?
The turn of event in Turkey, points to a radicalization of a NATO-member, and a turn towards the Islamic revolution of Iran.
When Obama was in Turkey in April 2007, He did tell the Turkish people about “the great religion of Islam”.
He did not mention that their forefathers in the Ottoman Empire committed a horrible crime in the name of “Allah” as late as 1915. That was the Armenian genocide, where between one million and 1,5 million people were slaughtered by Muslims.
Neither did Obama mention the human right abuses against the Kurdish minority in Eastern Turkey. Tens of thousands of refugees has been displaced, and do need a right of return to their homes.
The Turkish occupation of the Northern part of Cyprus was not on the agenda, when Obama searched for political support in Ankara.
36 years has passed since that illegal occupation started.
That Turkey has forced the United Nation to build a segregation wall through the Cypriot capital of Nicosia, seems to have been blotted out of any discussion between Obama and the Turkish political and religions establishment.
What about the visit to Egypt?
Obama must have heard about the Yom Kippur war in 1973, when Egypt lead a Pan-Arabic military force in a bid to destroy the state of Israel.
Egypt lost the war. Still the accused “colonial, racist apartheid” state of Israel returned the Sinai desert.
What about Obama”s visit to Saudi Arabia?
Could it be, that Obama has forgotten that people in the Islamic Kingdom get their hands cut off, if they have stolen or cheated someone?
I guess the troublesome Sharia Law, is a part of Obama”s “great religion” of his father, and his step father?
That ladies can not drive cars in Saudi Arabia, or be member’s of Parliament, does not seems to be of any concern for the US President.
That the Saudis have no free access to web-sites like Face Book or You tube is not a topic that Obama would like to confront the Saudi leadership.
The fact that its illegal to carry a Bible inside Saudi Arabia, and that Jews are not allowed to get Visa’s to the Islamic Kingdom, can only be looked up on a reasonable good Islamic policies.
Still, some people do not get it.
Obama feels also “Allah the great”.

Yeah, it’s good, very useful, thanks 🙂
hello from France,
Why would a Christian search in Mosques in the Middle East for spiritual support?
There can be only 2 answers : Either he is not a christian, either he is an apostate.
Anyway , one day (rather soon methinks) nobody will remember the name of allah anymore, all false gods shall disappear when Jesus will return.
some people are open minded and respectful of other religions (ie king Solomon, son of King David). this is the proper way to peace.
Yeah green beetle, Solomon was so great at the end of his life, a total apostate infact, did contrary to what was said in Proverbs:
1Ki 11:1 ¶ But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites;
1Ki 11:2 Of the nations concerning which the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love.
1Ki 11:3 And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.
1Ki 11:4 For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.
1Ki 11:5 For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
1Ki 11:6 And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.
1Ki 11:7 Then did Solomon build an high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the children of Ammon.
1Ki 11:8 And likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense and sacrificed unto their gods.
Such a great man, and this was the wisest man on the planet… says a lot about the rest of ye.
God is not open minded about other religions and says it is not the proper way to peace, it is only a way to evil.
Dear Isosu
Shalom, and welcome to this site.

My comment:
The Bible is a book that points towards the sin of man, and their need to saved. If we were achieve perfection on Earth, there is no need for God the Son to come and save us.
King Solomon was a sinner, just like the rest of us.
Will those who believe in Jesus, become perfect?
Only those who hide their sins and mistakes under the carpet. The Bible calls them hypocrites.
hi (whatever your name means),
1) all that junk that you mentioned happened “WHEN HE WAS OLD”. (funny thing about dirty old men: they seem to start out ok…)
2) and be careful not to criticise solomon’s wisdom -it came straight from G-d. [word to the wise: never tempt the Lord]
3) what solomon did was no different than what most royals do to keep the peace: they intermarry amongst each other (you wouldn’t attack a country where their queen is your daughter)
4) as for dabling with other gods, that is refered to as spiritual adultry (read Hosea). unfortunately for the isrealites, this was a common thing…(roller coaster b/w paganism & straight faith)
5) solomon allowed a weakness for women (like father like son) to come between himself and his G-d (again you can easily find this pattern played out amongst the biblical patriarchs ie. adam & eve, abram & sarai w/hagar, etc…)
6) right out of the horse’s mouth are the words “THERE IS NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN”
7) as for mr. president visiting his grandfather’s ‘church’, i see no real offence to this, because last i heard the name ‘Allah’ is simply another name for G-d. what seperates christians, jews, and muslims from each other is acquired knowledge from the religious books we read, study, and (for some) apply.
8) the commandments state to love and honor G-d & to love your neighbour as yourself.
9) to ‘love your neighbour as yourself’ is the golden rule in ALL known religions universally (pageans included) therefore man is without excuse.
10) you should know better than to argue with a woman.
Dear Michelle.
Shalom, and thanks for this comment.

My reply.
What separates us is our different views on His Son. That is the difference between the Tanakh (Torah), the New Testament and the Koran.
The Koran outright denies that God our Father has a Son. That will be the doom of the Muslims. The Tanakh speaks about a Son, a child that will be called mighty God.
Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
The Jewish people struggle to find this child, this Son. Who is he?
The first Jews that accepted Jesus as the promised Son, used the Tanakh in their bid to convince their fellow Jews that the Messiah had come. There was no New Testament in the days of the Jewish Apostles Paul and Peter.
Very few secular Jews I have come across have said anything negative about Jesus. Zionist religious Jews listen carefully, but often decline to voice their opinion. They keep it an open matter. Orthodox Jews, and in particular Ultra Orthodox Jews outright rejects Jesus as the possible Messiah.
But most of us are waiting for Him. Some for His second coming, and others for his claimed to be first coming.
Watched a video on rebuilding the 3rd Temple in Jerusalem on utube. what a joy to see that. More news will be coming out on obama and his invalid presidency.
According to the US constitution an upserper can be prosecuted after he is out of office but not before and all of his laws and whatever he has done will become invalid just as he is. Vote the bum outa office………………..
Read the Harbinger by Rabbi Johnathan Cahn, what a great book and I do believe it’s real. It is amazing….. obama is judgment on America for falling out of the Grace of God. Awaken sleeping folks…….
The followers of that deranged, sociopathic, non prophet Mohammed, who can never acknowledge that Israel has a right to exist in their own land. Realize, that by doing so, they render Mohammed, a lier and a false prophet.
But facts are facts; Israel is in the land, brought their by the hand of their G-d, and sustained by the same. Which begs the question: Where was Allah?
First of all, I would be careful about Johnathan Cahn. He is very mystical and he claims all these mysteries that ‘he’ has revealed. He takes Isaiah 9:10 out of context and writes an entire book on just that one verse. He does not clearly state the gospel in his book even though he claims to have. He has been on several Apostate-False teachers shows and ministries here in America, which we are not suppose to have any dealing with, but rather to reprove them as scripture says (Eph. 5:11, 2 Tim. 4:2) They are calling him a prophet of which he does not deny. Remember scripture says that a prophet must be 100% correct. See: Deut. 13:1-5 and also Ezekiel 13:1-6 (Prophesy against the prophets). The Bible, is “The Word of God” is suppose to be simple enough that a child can understand. We should not take ‘one man’s’ word for things. Scripture itself can explain itself. For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piecing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12, see also 2 Timothy 3:16. We should repent as Mr. Cahn says for turning against God yes, but the Bible says we must be “born again” (John 3:3) to enter the Kingdom of heaven. Enter the straight gate my friends, the only way to heaven is through Jesus righteousness, we put on His righteousness because He died on the cross and took the punishment we deserved, in our place. Second of all about Oboma, obviously we know who he serves by just looking at the picture above in Ivar’s great article and it is not the God of our Bible. The false prophet of the Koran, which says, God has no son. And we know better, because without the Son, we have nothing and our beliefs are in vain. We celebrate the resurrection of Christ! Praise the Lord!

Hello and peace,
You said” the bible, is”The Word of God” is supposed to be simple enough that a child can understand. If that is the case, then why do we think we need commentators, theologians,bible scholars to teach us and read their writings.
Also the verses you cited from Hebrews is not referring to the written word but is referring to Jesus Christ. Vs. 13 says”and their is no creature hidden from his sight….
Jesus Christ is the word of God here. He is the one who is quick and powerful,sharper than any two edged sword. He pierces the soul and spirit. He divides the soul and spirit even to joints and marrow.
He is the discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Unfortunately commentators refer to this passage as meaning the written word(scripture). They are wrong here and how unforunate for those who read an listen to their teaching. What else do they teach that is false but sounds correct because they interpret much of scripture literally. Understanding of God’s written word comes from his spirit.
I have never heard a correct teaching of Hebrews 4:12 yet and I am
58 years old
You can apply it the way you said but it is not correct application.
iI Tim 3:16 is however referring to scripture. And it refers to scripture.
The Stupidity of Truth makes most Humans not to follow it, likewise Islam is very hard for many, so the problem is that,
What if Islam is Truely from God? i think Those wise amongst us surpose to teach us what to tell God if it happened that Islam is real, instead of teaching us hatred towards it,

Todd you are wrong about Hebrews 4:12. The verse plainly says, “for the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And a child can understand that in John 3:16 it says “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that who so ever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. It seems clear to me. I believe the word of God is God breathed, inspired, infallible, holy, immortal, eternal, never changing, absolute truth and God Himself. If you were on a desert Island alone and only had a Bible and no other book, you could be saved by reading it. By the Holy Spirit’s teaching God would reveal more and more details as you grow in the Grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ, because He is our ultimate Teacher/Rabbi. Amen

peace and greetings
Vs 12 and 13 should be read together in context. The whole chapter is speaking about and referring to Jesus Christ. Why would the writer
suddenly insert a verse about scripture. John said that in the beginning was the word, and the word was with God and the word was God, and the same was in the beginning with God. The word was made flesh.
Jesus is living, Jesus is active, Jesus is sharper than any two edged sword, Jesus pierces as far as the division of soul and spirit of both Joints and marrow and Jesus is able to Judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
I agree as you do that the scripture is God breathed,inspired,infallible,holy, imortal,eternal,never changing absolute truth and God himself, and I believe that If I were on a desert isle with out God’s word I could be saved because God has revealed himself through his creation so that man is without excuse.
And yes it is by the Holy Spirit that we learn what his word(scripture)
means. The Lord Jesus Christ is our Rabbi/teacher. It is through him
that our souls are pierced and through him no creature is hid from his sight. It is the spirit of Christ, the spirit of God who are both one that convicts
Because Todd John 1:14 says, “And the WORD was mad flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld HIS glory, and the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” and also Hebrews 11:3 says, ” Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the WORD of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.” Colossians 3:16 says, “Let the WORD of Christ dwell in you richly in all Wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual song, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” 1 John 5:7 says, “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the WORD, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one (united).” Apparently Hebrews 4:12 & 13 is saying that JESUS IS THE WORD. When you have God’s word you have Jesus. A child can understand that. I have a niece who is 8 that can read better than I. I was not born again by looking at nature. Of course I could see it was amazing and some intelliegence did it. It was God’s WORD that convicted my heart when I read John 3:3. God uses the WORD to bring people to himself. Whether He uses a person who shares the gospel, or the WORD of God itself. Why else does the Bible say? “And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them who preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!” Romans 10:15. If Jesus is the WORD and you had only a Bible, God would use it to woe you to repentance and belief in Him (Jesus). If you did not have the WORD then God would send beautiful feet to you! As above stated God, the Father, God the son (WORD), God the Holy Spirit. Amen
Amen, nannette
