After reading this article, I'm pretty sure this is the same organization that associate pastors from Saddleback were meeting with in hopes of interfaith ministries?

When many denominations endorse the slaughter of the unborn or "passing their children through the fire to Molech" as Scripture would say what can be wrong with cozying up to pagans?

This May Solicit Some Real Spin and Ire Towards You...
I was raked over the coals, and carpet when I posted this, but I'll post it in support of your OP - http://theamericanmuslim.org/tam.ph...ight-wing-extremists-for-hosting-mpac/0019538
I contend that to participate in this kind of conference is to be on the cusp of violating the intent of Paul's warning to NOT be unequally yoked. That does not mean RW or anyone else [Christians named in article] are supporting worldwide religion. I only show this post to say that in my heart, I can't, in good consciousness, attend such a meeting. -
But then again, this looks no worse than Christians seemingly yoking themselves to a Mormon for political purposes.
And the world isn't going to view it as being much different. -

Well, I Used "Cusp!"
When I used "cusp" what I meant was, to do what is mentioned in this news article, puts the believer at no less than the "cusp" of being uneequally yoked, and it is a sin to be unequally yoked. It is, pure and simple, being unequally yoked to sit down and fellowship, or teach at these ecumenical conferences, and we both know that. However, I didn't feel like being torn apart for sharing what I believe. Sometimes, it's just easier to let those who believe differently about the ecumenical thing, to do what they want. God will take care of teaching them when the time comes. :smilewinkgrin: -
We are doing a Sunday School lesson in Hosea tomorrow and it's about the spiritual adultry the Israelites played with Baal worship. I see this as the same thing, playing around with Islam.

You don't EVER yoke with that which is against Christ.
Preach the word. It doesn't matter if the world or other Christians disagree with it. Preach the word. Be pleasing to God if that offends everyone else, oh well. :laugh: -

Tact -vs- Attack....
You have your way, and I have mine. My grammy always said, "Paul, you can more flies with honey than you can with vinegar!" What I assume she means is, you can get what you want done better with sweetness/kindness rather than with a caustic attitude!
We have two different approaches to the truth, but I'm sure we both accomplish the same results. I know I do! I don't need to ruffle feathers as I'm sure God on judgment day will do that when He tells the multitudes, they were wrong and heading back south for eternity. :laugh: -

from the article:
....what better way than to appear all friendly and buddy-buddy with local churches.
They are not simply trying to appear thus, but to Islam every act is an opportunity to show off.
Former Islamists will tell you that this is symbolic of conquest of, or imminent victory over, a foe.
Like the attempt to construct a Mosque near ground zero in New York.
They are enemies of Christianity, and every other faith, as much as they are sworn enemies of Israel and Zionism.
Their purpose, whether they admit it or not, is to overrun the entire world with Islam, by hook or by crook, by diplomacy or by force.
It is their avowed purpose of the total annihilation of an entire race, the Jews, which is the reason I did a 180 and supported Israel instead, not because I believe that Israel will be the future seat of the coming King of kings.
There is no such thing as moderate Islam, there is only militant Islam.
I don't care if a Muslim was born and raised in a southern drawl, a midwest twang, a California or Brooklyn accent, blonde, blue-eyed, or sheet-white, he/she is potentially an enemy of Americans in general, and Christians and Jews, in particular.
I'd keep an eye open around them as much as I'd keep my eye open when I know there's a wild animal lurking somewhere in my backyard.
Finally, these stupid liberal Christians should ask themselves, what if it were the other way around.
What if America were Muslim, and they were the ones asking permission to hold one of their affairs in a mosque, or even an adjacent building in mosque ground ?
Will the Muslims happily allow the "infidels" to use their sacred ground ? -
