What Do Muslims Really Mean When They Invoke The Name Of Jesus?

Recently, Christian leaders in America allowed a Muslim imam to lead an Islamic service at the
National Cathedral. Leaders of both Houses of Congress stood in solemn silence, heads bowed
reverently and respectfully as the names of Allah and Mohammed were venerated in America’s
foremost Christian house of worship.

Many probably even thought there are similaritiesbetween the God of their forefathers and those of
their Islamic guests. Many have said openly that both Islam and Christianity worship the same God, and follow the same Jesus.
But they are ill informed. What do Muslims really mean when they venerate and highly esteem
Jesus or Isa (as he is known within Islam)? Well, first understand the basics. Muslims do not believe that Jesus died on the cross. Nor do Muslims believe that Jesus is the penal substitution for your sins and mine. In fact Muslims believe that Jesus was rescued from death by Allah and ascended into heaven in a rapture like event and there he waits, eager to come back and finish his work on earth. Muslims do believe in the Second Coming of Jesus, a fact that surprises many Christians. In truth and much to our shame, there are many more Muslims anticipating the return of their Jesus today than there are Christians expecting the real Jesus.

However, this is where the
similarity ends.In the Islamic tradition, their Jesus has certain
very specific goals to achieve upon his return.

According to Islam, “Jesus” will return to a place just outside of Damascus—to a mosque, and
when he does return, he will return to meet the Islamic Mahdi ( the Twelfth Imam, the great Awaited One), who will be leading a vast army. “Jesus” will declare himself to be a Muslim and will be asked to lead prayers by the Mahdi, but
he will refuse, deferring instead to the Mahdi for this privilege. The Mahdi will lead the prayers and
“Jesus” will stand behind him in deference. Once “Jesus” has made Hajj to Mecca his primary
goal then will be to institute and oversee the implementation of Sharia Law throughout the world. It will be this Islamic version of Jesus who holds the Christian nations accountable for falsely
believing he is the messiah, and not Allah. If they will not convert immediately to Islam it will be their Jesus who will slaughter all
Christians and comprehensively bring an end to Christianity. This Jesus will then eliminate all other world religions in favor of Islam. In fact, this Jesus will be the greatest Muslim evangelist of all
time.

The Islamic Jesus’ other primary role will be to confront and kill the Dajjal, the Islamic antichrist, along with all of his followers. All of Dajjal’s followers are Jews.
This is what in part accounts for such hatred of the Jews in the Islamic world today, among other
things. It will be this Jesus who leads the final “crusade” against the Jewish nation. In Islam, it will be this Jesus who will bring them to the sword and brings an end to their nation. Once this is accomplished “Jesus” will marry and have children, after which he will die, be buried and be mourned amongst the children of Islam.
There are striking similarities between the Jesus of Islam and the False Prophet of the Bible. Their roles are almost identical. The same can be said of the Islamic Mahdi and the forthcoming biblical Antichrist.
This is the Jesus and the belief system that was brought into the National Cathedral. (One that
anticipates the coming of the man of sin), the son of perdition, not the King of kings and the Lord of
lords. And therein lies the fallacy of Islam. And therein is the fallacy of all hybrid notions of religion like
“Chrislam.” The Jesus of Islam is not the Jesus of the Bible, so why at the inauguration of President Obama in 2008 did Rick Warren,
“America’s Pastor,” offer prayers “…in the name of Isa?”

Why are the air waves and bookstores full of work by Christian leaders who are busy promoting efforts to find common ground between the two? The Jesus of Islam is not the Jesus of the Bible.
There is no forgiveness of sins, there is no reconciliation to an Almighty God because there is
no propitiation for sins committed. Isa is not the Jesus of the Bible. Isa is not the Anointed One of the Lord God Almighty, he is not the Son of Man envisioned by the prophet Daniel. He is not the One looking “as if he had been slain” presented to the Ancient of
Days. He is not the one in heaven who “all the elders fell down and threw their crowns at His feet” nor the One that the whole heavenly host prostrated themselves before in worship. Nor is Isa the same Jesus who walked the shores
of the Sea Galilee two thousand years ago bringing sight to the blind, healing the sick, making the lame walk again, empowering the
dumb to bring praise to the God of all creation. Nor is Isa the Jesus who raised little Jairus’ daughter from the dead and then gave her a
cuddle.

Isa cannot take your sins nor give you relief or comfort if you are suffering, nor would he want
to. Isa is not Jesus, the Messiah, the living Christ and our great High Priest. He is not the Son of
the living God. Isa is a false Jesus, a replica, a replacement, an empty white washed tomb with.empty hope on the outside and inside filled with utter desolation.
The real Jesus is the man who says to you today, “Come to me, all you who are weary and
burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28).
It is this Jesus who proclaims, “All that the Father giveth Me shall come to Me, and him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out” (John 6:37).

This is the real Jesus. The Jesus who was hammered onto a cross, hoisted up and agonized for hours so that you and I could live. So that you and I could be sons and daughters of the living
God, heirs of salvation with Him.
Jesus, the true Messiah tells us plainly, “Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me” (Revelation 3:20).

The question asked by the man in prison in the book of Acts is that echoed truly by every human
heart, “What must I do to be saved?” (Acts 16:30).
The response is always the same, “…He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him” (John 3:36).

The Islamic Isa is not Jesus Christ. Please tell me our Christian leadership understand
this...

let me phone a friend

I hear u

Rick warren part of tht sh*t setup?!

Then i'll burn his book i bought, tht guy shud know better thn partake in this charade.


They'll never b peace btw christianity and other religions , esp islam, because the inspirators are different and opposed to each other.

Toyota's answer to mercedes was the Lexus.
It was to appeal to those who were drawn to mercedes touted points of high class, polish , elegance and engineering excellence.

Islam is satan's answer to christianity.
Just as toyota modelled lexus closely after merc so satan aligned islam closely after christianity.
I guess,he reasoned tht a close looking counterfeit would b more marketable thn some wild far fetched alternative.
In this aspect, satan's ministry of false religion were insightful,
pseudo christian religions and christian-like mishmashes hav sold very on the religious stock exchange, reaping many souls for hell than war and persucution could - satan initial strategy to dissuade people from the tru way or make those in it recant and back pedal.
