So let's welcome Sharom Hadian to Rock Harbor Church. God bless you, Sharom. Good to have you here, man. I'll turn it back over to you then at the end. Yeah, yeah. Well, good morning. Praise God. Great to be here with you. Great to worship with you. What a blessing. Thank you, Pastor Brandon and Rock Harbor for having me back. And we're excited to be here for the weekend this time. And so, again, as Pastor said, tonight, if you want to join us over at First Assembly at 530, I'll be doing a separate presentation actually talking about evangelizing Muslims and the fact that we have 1.6 to 1.7 billion Muslims in the world. And I can tell you from my own testimony, I'll just put this up on the screen here, that you can see when I became a Christian 20 years ago, that the Lord showed me the truth that there is the way, there is the life, there is the truth, there's only one way, amen? There's only one way and one name by which we can be saved, and that is the name of Jesus Christ. And so, these Muslims that are there, I want to get this out before I get started, because, you know, one of the accusations we get from the left, from the media, and within the church even, is, you're anti-Muslim. You hate Muslims. No, I want to have the heart of Christ for them, because somebody had that heart for me 20 years ago. They were willing, boldly, to share the gospel and risk offending me. I'm not sure if we're there today. I'm not sure if the church is in the place where we're willing to risk offense to share the gospel. Or we're sharing a social gospel. A gospel that is all just about emotions. or social transformation and not about the true eternal transformation. So this presentation today is really to expose the whole interfaith movement and how it's sabotaging not just the church and the gospel itself, the Great Commission, but also our nation. It is being used, as Pastor Bannon mentioned, this red-green alliance The red being the socialists, the communists, the Marxists, working with the Islamic movement to sabotage and overthrow this nation, this republic, but also to co-opt churches. Do you understand? They want to come into our churches and they want to co-opt the pulpits. The best thing they can do is to silence us. Because if we're not out there preaching the gospel, the enemy can prevail. But the promise of God is that the gates of hell should not prevail against the church. Amen? And so we have to be here to equip and to pray up, to armor up, because folks, the day is coming where not just us, but not just Pastor Brandon, but all of you are going to be on the front lines. If you're gonna take a stand for Christ today, if you're gonna take a Biblical stand for Christ, a Biblical support of Israel, a Biblical support of the gospel, a Biblical support of marriage, a Biblical support of life, a Biblical support of sovereignty of nation, if you're gonna take a stand for any of these things, you're on the front lines. So my encouragement is we have to buckle up, put on the armor of God, and be prepared. And so hopefully today, this presentation will prepare you for that. And then tonight, it's a follow-up, meaning that it's sort of the go-hand-in-hand. Because for those who say you're anti-Muslim, no, no, no, we're going to expose these things that are happening, including in the church, like we did last year with James White and the interfaith dialogue that he had with a Muslim Brotherhood operative. But we're gonna also have the right heart of Christ for the Muslims who need to be saved. Because the only thing that will change their hearts is the gospel of Jesus Christ. I can tell you from first-hand experience, that's the only thing that changed my heart. 20 years ago, the Lord showed me the truth. And for me, it wasn't just about salvation, as I've shared before, as I've been here. For me, of course, it was an issue of salvation, because in Islam, there is no guarantee of salvation. But it was also the fact that I get to commune with the one true God. I get to have a Heavenly Father. And I'll say it now, I'll say it throughout this presentation, that our responsibility as believers is to contrast is to show people the difference between whatever path they're following and the one true path. And in my testimony 20 years ago when the gospel was preached, by the way, what's funny is this young lady that the Lord used to initially share the gospel with me, and forgive me if I shared this when I was here last time, what was interesting was, you know, growing up and I left Iran because I was born there and I left right after the revolution, Actually, right before the revolution, right before the government was overthrown. So when I do travel and talk about the dangers of Islam and how it is changing societies, Folks, I'm speaking from firsthand experience because it happened in my birth country of Iran. It got transformed to an Islamic Republic. But the thing that was interesting is from a young age, I would ask my parents, if I die, how do I know if I'm going to go to heaven? And there was no answer. They didn't have an answer because Islam has no answer. And so that stayed with me throughout my teens and my twenties. So when I left Iran, I came to the West. Can I tell you, I had Christian friends. I had Christian friends who were very nice to me, but can I tell you, none of them ever shared the gospel with me. None of them ever risked offending me. They were very nice. But can I tell you, niceness won't get anybody into heaven. Niceness, in fact, you can be doggone nice and send them to hell. And so, because you know what was at my heart? How can I be saved? What must I do to be saved? So, fast forward, 1999, when the Lord brought this young gal into my life who was one of my students, I was a coach at the time, down in Atlanta, Georgia, I began to talk with her. She said, well, yeah, I'm a Christian. I go, you know, here's another Christian. Okay. So I said, you know, so what do you do? I'm a computer programmer. But she goes, well, I want to go, I want to become a missionary, and I want to go into other countries. And I had a, you know, not a great understanding of what a missionary was. And so I said, well, what does that mean? Well, I want to go tell people about Jesus. Well, you know the next words that came out of my mouth? Can you tell me? And she kind of looked at me perplexed like, uh, I guess. You see, because it wasn't even on her radar, and so I had to sort of poke and prod to get it out of her, and then she began to share the gospel and share her testimony, and then later gave me a tape to listen to, and later connected me with a Christian, and God used all those things, but the bottom line is that we have to be willing, but before we're willing, we have to correct some of these errors, and that's the heart of our ministry. The Truth and Love ministry is about Paul says in Ephesians chapter 4 verse 15 speak the truth and love so that we are not like little children being tossed about by every deceit deceit deceitful Scheming of men and trickery and false doctrine like replacement theology Like interfaith, because can I tell you that these things are now becoming normative in the church. My experience being out there on the front lines, and I was just telling pastor in the Sunday school, those who are in the Sunday school, that just a couple weeks ago, September 11th, I was supposed to be speaking in, I'll have some newspaper clips I'll show you in the presentation. I was supposed to be speaking in north of Dearborn, Michigan at a Baptist church there, 9-11 event, talking about exposing the interfaith movement, sharing my testimony of how I came to Christ. And because of pressure from the Muslim Brotherhood, because of pressure from leftist politicians, and because of pressure from the interfaith community, They put pressure and the elders, not the pastor, the elders of that church caved the night before the event. I was literally scheduled to fly out on Tuesday. Monday night I got a call saying the event's off. They don't want to do it. And so this is how the church is going to be light and salt. This is how we're going to stand for Christ because we give in to a little bit of pressure. And part of what I found out later was that there was a pending lawsuit apparently that there was a adjacent to the church They shared a the building They had rented this part of the building out to a school a Christian school And somehow the Christian school got wind of all this media publicity and then called them and said hey, you know what? We want you guys to be good neighbors to us the church by canceling this event. And by the way, if you don't, we're going to sue you. Did I miss something about neighborly interaction there? So I asked one of the elders of the church, I said, what are they going to sue you for? Well, they just said that, you know, we were putting them at risk. I go, we can't sue someone for something that hasn't happened yet. And they said, well, you don't understand. We could lose our houses. We could lose our... I said, have you counted the cost of following Christ? Do you understand you're losing your nation? Do you understand you're losing your voice? Do you understand you will now be targeted by the interfaith community and the Muslim Brotherhood and the left? Again, there's that red-green access, and that church will now be targeted mercilessly by them as a weak church that will not take a stand. And this was a fundamentalist Baptist church. It wasn't like it was a loosey-goosey to start with. But this is what we're seeing. So when I talk about how the interfaith movement is sabotaging America and the church, we're witnessing it day in and day out. I'm not talking about theory. We're seeing it practically. It happened to me two weeks ago. And here's what I said when I gave a sermon at our church, giving the update to our body and to those online. I said, the thing that really got me, the thing that I felt really stirred my heart about this cancellation, because I just felt such a grieving from the Holy Spirit. But it wasn't even about the event being canceled. It was that the Lord put on my heart that I was gonna share my testimony. And my testimony brings glory to the Father. And a church stopped me from sharing my testimony. What if there was a Muslim in the audience that night? What if the Lord intended to bring some Muslims who are 20 miles down the road in one of the largest Muslim communities in America, and they would have heard my testimony that night? What if, what if, what if? Well, it never happened because we decided to shut down God. That's what we're doing. And that's what the interfaith movement is doing. All under the guise of loving Christianity. When James White last year had that interfaith dialogue with this Muslim Brotherhood operative, the whole thing was, well, how else are we going to love them? Well, how about just sit down with them one-on-one and share the gospel? Don't invite them into a church. Don't give them a platform. Don't lie about Islam. So, I wanna give you just a couple of warnings here. This is from 1 Timothy 4. I believe that this is exactly the hour we are in, church. All of you believe we're in the last days, raise your hands. But the Spirit explicitly, remember, this is the Spirit of God. The Holy Spirit explicitly, implicitly says that in the latter times, Some will fall away from the faith. Again, the word they're fall away in the Greek is the word aphestimy. It's where we get the word apostasy from. This is the apostasy that the scriptures and the Holy Spirit has warned us about. Why? Don't you wanna know why they're falling away? Because they pay attention to two things, a deceitful spirit and doctrines of demons. Wow, that's pretty serious. So what we have a lot of what's going on in the church is a deceitful lying spirit that is not the spirit of the Lord, and a lot of Christians that are listening to doctrines of demons. By the way, as I said in the nine o'clock hour, replacement theology, guess what? That's a doctrine of a demon. Interfaith and ecumenicalism, the idea that all religions are alike, that's a doctrine of a demon. That's not the Holy Spirit giving us the admonition to stand for the gospel. By means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron. And that's really what I witnessed too, is that their conscience is now seared because you can't even have a rational conversation with these folks anymore. They just hate us, and yet I don't hate them. I don't hate them, but they hate us. And by the way, you understand I'm talking about people in the church. I'm not talking about people outside the church, I'm talking about people who are in the church. So, I believe that a compromised church, and that's what you're gonna see today. is hastening the one world, coming one world religion. What you're gonna see with the interfaith movement is prophetically what Revelation 13, I'll show you in a minute, Revelation 13, Revelation 17, ultimately, during the tribulation time, talks about. The coming one world government and the coming one world religion. And what's quickening the days. Any of you feel that things are moving really fast? Have any of you, just lately, tried to catch your breath? Lord, it's going so fast, I don't even know how to keep up. When we're trying to bring correction to these errors, one after another, after another, after another, you can't even keep up with them, because they're coming from every direction. That's a compromised church. That church in Michigan now is a compromised church. And what they will do, they will hasten their own demise. The good news is, is that again, God will preserve His true church, amen? He will preserve a remnant to the very end, and the gates of hell will not prevail, and we're gonna stand. Now some of us may go home to be with the Lord a little sooner. You can laugh at that, it's okay. Some of you are like, I don't wanna laugh, that's not funny. But you know what, I do not fear the one who can kill my body. but I fear the one who can kill my soul, who can cast my soul. And so therefore the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. And the only way we're gonna navigate through these days that we're in is the fear of the Lord. So amen for this church and you guys as a body being here, pastor again. So let me give you a few signs of what I believe is this great apostasy and the coming one world religion, Revelation 13 again. First of all, what's absolute truth? Have you heard that lately? Can you even say the word absolute truth without being called a bigot? You're a fundamentalist. Yes, I am. You're a zealot for Christ. Yes, I am. Amen. Are you ashamed to be a zealot for Christ? Don't be ashamed to be a zealot for Christ. Bigoted, narrow-minded, racist, unloving, un-Christ-like, fill in the blank, right? I mean, you can keep filling the blank, you know. Homophobic, Islamophobic, xenophobic, whitephobic. Is that even a thing nowadays? People are literally whitephobic. I mean, I've seen white people be whitephobic. I'm like, you're white. You're scared of yourself. What's going on? You're confused. The Bible calls that a double-minded person. And of course, I get lumped in with the whole white thing, you know, because I'm now called, remember, I think I told you this last year, I'm called a white supremacist. So I just thought it's kind of funny, a guy from the Middle East, I'm now a white supremacist apparently. So, you know, join the club, whatever you want to say. But the bottom line is, this is it. And the biggest battle that we see coming against absolute truth is from within the church. Because everything is now relative, and social justice, and the social gospel, and don't hurt people's feelings. And not only do we see this from the National Council of Churches and the World Council of Churches, which have been co-opted for years. If anybody goes and studies the history of these organizations that are spewing now, basically open Marxism. My friend Brandon House recently put out a book called Marxianity. We have the Sabotage DVD that I'm gonna be giving part of this presentation tomorrow night at Hodel's with the Act for America group. And the second half of the six hour DVD, three DVDs, six hours of content is all about how socialism and Marxism, the social justice movement is in the church. And well-known pastors, I mean, I'm not talking about mainline denomination, Pastor Brandon knows, we're not talking about mainline, we're talking about major evangelical leaders. pushing socialism, things like racial reconciliation, fighting against white privilege. By the way, who is the most dangerous person in America, categorically speaking? Who wants to take a guess? White, Christian, male. So if you're a white male and you're a Christian, according to the left and the Islamic movement, you're the greatest threat. And that's not a joke. So we gotta buckle up. So again, this is the red-green axis Pastor was talking about. You got the Marxists and the Socialists and the Communists and the Globalists on the left, that's the red, and then you have the Islamic movement, the Muslim Brotherhood that I'll show you in a minute during the presentation, that's the green. Red, green, they're working together. And what's their common enemy? Well, first of all, our nation, right? Our constitution, our government, our freedoms, but also the true church, right? Because there's two major institutions we all know. The communists did it, now this red-green axis is doing it. There's two major institutions that they have to attack. Who wants to guess what they are? The church and the family. Right? Destroy the family unit, meaning biblical family unit, and destroy the church. And what is holding the flood back? Isaiah 59, right? When the floods come in, the Lord will raise a standard. If the church is not that standard, I don't know who is. So here's some examples, by the way, with the red-green. Here you have, this is the National Council of Churches, and the National Council of Churches in USA and Minnesota, for example, pushing these yard signs that they had to our Muslim neighbors, have a blessed Ramadan. This is the National Guard in the state of Minnesota, Blessing Ramadan. Now the National Guard would never be able to hold up a sign officially in uniform saying bless Christmas or bless Jesus Christ. But they're blessing Ramadan. And what is Ramadan? Ramadan is the time that Muslims not only fast and pray, yes they do that, but it is ultimately the biggest reason it is the holiest time of the year for Muslims is because they believe that's when the revelation of the Quran, the Quran, as you guys say, was given to them. And you'll see today that that book contradicts every major tenant of our Christian faith. And so they're promoting that. And then now, let me get this right, we want Christians to bless the revelation of another Gospel or another God that I understand that right you want me as a Christian Who's the follower of the God of the Bible to bless? Another holiday that is celebrating the revelation of a false book That is from the pit of hell That is an Antichrist spirit If you get the DVD, by the way, of today's presentation, because I think last time when we were here, we didn't have these new DVDs, that this DVD, a lot of what I'm sharing is on the DVD, the Trojan Horse of Interfaith Dialogue, it's there. And I go into way more depth as far as the actual scriptural backing. So let me move on, but that's what we're talking about trying to expose. So, we're witnessing the compromise of the Word of God in every major denomination of Christianity. I don't know about you, but I don't think there's any denomination that's safe. Because it's not about denominationalism, it's about believers standing on the Word of God. Amen? Every denomination, there is not one that is immune from this compromise. Replacement theology, as I mentioned, is perverting biblical support for Israel. Preterism, things I covered. When Christians turn and betray Israel, confusion sets in about Islam. I've seen it time and time and time from the average Christian to Christian leadership that when they get confused on Israel and what the Bible says about Israel prophetically and scripturally, they will become soft or lack understanding about the nature of Islam. Moving on. And I believe Islam is a major last day's judgment. I believe that the Lord is allowing this global system as part of the judgment that Yahweh is bringing upon the nations that are forsaking God. Because guess what's happening in those nations? Look at Europe as an example, Western Europe, right? They left Christianity, right? They're post-Christian. They celebrated their post-Christian utopia, right? Called the wonderful multicultural melting pot that Europe was gonna be, Western Europe, right? So can I ask you a question? Is Western Europe now still secular? Or are they being overrun by Islam? Right? They are now overrun by Islam. In many European countries, including Belgium and the UK and France, they're estimating between 2030 and 2050, those countries will reach Muslim majority. Because of the birth rate, which is significantly higher, as Europeans kill themselves off through abortion, through homosexuality, by the way, you know those things don't produce babies. Right? My wife and I are doing our part to produce babies. Thank God. Praise God. We just had our fifth baby. Hallelujah. So, pray for us, right? It's weird because, you know, we had four, right? And people look at you like, four? That's wonderful. You have five. They look at you like, really? Five? Why? You know, you get that look like, are you Amish now? What happened to you? And I said, no, I'm not going to grow a beard and wear suspenders. No offense to anybody. If anybody's Amish, I'm an Amish family. I don't mean any disrespect, but we get that look now. But I tell you that as hard as it is, and parents, you know, you have hard days, the greatest blessing in the world, right? There are days that I have to go, Lord, really? Really? You're entrusting me with five kids? Really? Moving on. When we see a nation forsake God, and in this nation, our Judeo-Christian foundation, and, ooh, a nation that turns on Israel, I believe one of our saving graces that the reason the Lord has given us even a glimpse of a reprieve is to have a president in the White House and an administration that adamantly supports the Jewish people. This is critically important. So, I gotta go faster now. Again, tonight, you'll see our focus should be on evangelism. The problem is we can't focus on evangelism when we have all of this nonsense going on with interfaith. So, let's talk about what this interfaith movement is. Very quickly, again, this is all in the DVD, so I'm gonna go pretty fast here. There's four major tenants of this whole ecumenical interfaith movement. And very quickly, and I've said this before, remember, interfaith is not you talking to an unbeliever about your faith. That's called evangelism. Interfaith is the moment that you try to seek common ground. The whole premise of interfaith or ecumenical, the idea of ecumenicalism means what? There is equality between religions. As a Christ follower, there is no equality between any other false religion and the true faith that is Christianity. None whatsoever. Amen? None. So ecumenicalism, the idea of this common, this sort of equalness, and interfaith is the idea that you're finding common ground. So therefore, the first tenet of the interfaith movement is common word. It's the idea that both the Koran and the Bible have common word. Now, are there certain stories that are in the Koran that sound like the Bible? Yes, they were all plagiarized. They were all taken and twisted. Every biblical story but one that is in the Quran has details that are twisted and wrong. So I don't care what sounds like it's the same, if the word of God has been twisted, it's not from the Lord. Because the Holy Spirit will preserve the word of God, right? The word of God will not wither and fade, amen? It is eternal. Number two, if you believe in common word and common ground based on the scriptural text, then therefore by definition, you have to believe there's a common God. Number three, if you believe there's a common God, and this third one now, folks, is very much growing. You have to believe that that common God, particularly with Muslims, goes back all the way to Abraham. So they will say this, those who are proponents of this, like James White and others in the evangelical churches as well, that Islam is an Abrahamic faith. And I'll refute that for you at the very end and in the DVD I go into much more detail. It absolutely is not an Abrahamic faith. But that's the claim. And then finally the fourth one is that Muslims believe Jesus is the Messiah. Because the Quran uses this term very loosely with no definition, in fact denying it. And so this is, again, they're always trying to find some common ground. Well, you know, Muslims, we have a lot in common if we just get together and put our differences aside. No, you don't. Because again, in my own testimony, what the Lord showed me was that one is true, one is a lie. Choose. Now, very quickly, where does the concept of this common word come from? I've covered this before, but just to kind of refresh, would you be surprised that the concept comes from the Quran? Again, the Quran is the one that Muhammad claimed that he got revelation of this book, was never written down by the way, in 601, starting in 601 AD, 600 years after Jesus is on the earth, 500 years after the church is already exploding and Now they come with a different message. So what does it say? Oh people of the book? That's the reference of Jews and Christians That that's the Quran talking to Jews and Christians Come to a common word between us and you That we worship none But Allah that we associate no partners with him and that none of us shall take others as Lords besides Allah so it starts by giving a strategy this is a strategy and Muslims go to Christians and Jews in order to win them to Islam. Do you see where this is going? And therefore tell them we have a common word. So they tell us we have a common word. We come to the table and go, ah, James White comes to the table and sits in a church with a Muslim and says, let's, Dr. Khadi, let's find out what we have in common. But you know who initiates it? The Muslim. And so what do you think this verse is correcting? Come to a common word. So we can correct you on something very important. Who wants to guess? The Trinity. You see, we worship that, because Islam's claim is they're the only monotheistic religion in the world. Really? Because I thought Christianity was monotheistic as well. But they believe we believe in three gods. That's the false claim of Islam about Christianity. So this verse says to the Christian, hey, come sit at the table, let's have a common word, so that we can correct you on the Trinity. We worship none but Allah. We associate no partners, meaning Father, Son, Holy Spirit, and that none of us shall take others as lords. What do we call Jesus Christ? Our Lord and Savior. So my question to you is, how can I have a common word with a Muslim in an interfaith meeting or dialogue if that Muslim is saying to me, as a Christian, denounce the Trinity? How important is the Trinity to our faith? It's everything, right? The idea, the concept, the premise of the divinity of Jesus, of the triune nature of the one and only God. Very, very simple concept to refute the interfaith movement and the whole common word premise. Both sources can't be divine. How can you logically say that if both sources are from God and yet one source, the Koran, is asking this source, the Bible, to deny its core tenant, which is the triune nature of God? Does that make sense? How can they both be divine? They're not. And in fact, in the Reliance of the Traveler, which is a sacred manual of Islamic law that's codified over a thousand years of Islamic law, in section W4.0, it goes on to say that Islam is the final religion. What happened to the whole thing of common ground? I thought interfaith was built upon common ground. How can it be common ground if Islam is the final religion? And then the section goes on to say, what about Christianity and Judaism, which came before Islam? Well, let's say, well, back then they were valid, back then in their own time, but today they are now, quote, remnant cults. So if a Muslim comes to a Christian or a Christian leader and says, let's sit down and have common ground and interfaith, two things are happening. Either that Christian leader is complicit in the deception, or they're completely being deceived. Does that make sense? Because if a Muslim is true to their understanding, and I've cornered Muslims by asking this question, because they won't answer it until you really corner them. Is Islam the final religion? Finally, they'll say, well, yes. So therefore, what should happen to Christians and Jews who don't accept Islam? I had a Muslim from Care in Minnesota tell me last year, we should give them a hug. So I took the Quran and I put it in front of him and said, can you show me the chapter in the Quran that says give the Christians a hug who don't accept Islam? He threw it back, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He wanted to debate me. I'll tell you when I debate you. And I said, get away from me, don't waste my time. You're a liar. Repent, turn to Christ, Jesus alone. So this is, listen, you understand? It's a one-way strategy. The entire interfaith movement, spiritually speaking now, again, we're not talking about nationally, we're talking about spiritually speaking within the church, the entire interfaith movement is a one-way satanic strategy to deceive the church, and to get us as Christians to denounce our faith. Does that sound serious enough now? You understand why I'm so passionate about this? And you understand why we get so much opposition? I've never had as much opposition as I do giving this presentation, because I believe that we're exposing deep strategy of the enemy to deceive the church in these final days because remember we've been warned about The coming one world religion we've been warned We are not to embrace the Antichrist spirit. We're not to go along with the end We know certain things will happen, but we're not supposed to join in Amen, we're supposed to resist By the way, if you go and read the common word, because again, the concept here, I went too fast, is just for those of you who don't remember before or haven't gotten other DVDs, again, as I said to you, remember what Surah 364 said? Hey, Muslims go to Christians. Well, that's exactly how it went down. 2006, 138 Muslim scholars wrote a letter to Christians called a, now stay in your seat, this will shock you, the title of the letter, A Common Word Between Us and You. I wonder where they get that title from. Directly from Surah 364, from the Quran. And they wrote this letter basically saying, we have a common word, we have common ground, let's build on it. Let's put our differences aside. Of course, they also said, you guys owe us an apology on a couple things, about the war on terror, about the Crusades. If you apologize, then we can come to the table. And of course, in 2008, late 2007, a large group of Christian leaders responded back to this document saying, indeed, we want to reconcile our differences, we believe we have a common word, and we want to establish this peace. And oh, by the way, we ask the all-merciful one for forgiveness. a term to Allah in the Quran, not to Jehovah God in the Bible. If you don't think that the common word written by the Muslims was the entire purpose of it was to establish this interfaith one-way bridge, watch this. Let this common ground be the basis of all future interfaith dialogue between us. For our common ground is that on which hangs all the law and the prophets. So they misused Matthew 22 to be able to get the, suck who in? The Christians. And again, in 2007, at the Yale Center of Faith, I've covered this before, but again, just a quick review, the Christians respond, over 500 Christian leaders signed it initially, like Rick Warren, Heibel, Shuler, John Stott, Leith Anderson, Philatheological Seminary. By the way, when we got this event canceled in Michigan, I'll show you later, The Washington Post went to Leith Anderson and went to Fuller Theological and got statements from them condemning me and this event. You see how that works? So all the folks that are in the common ward camp, the left uses them. The Muslims are using them to come against who? The true Christians, the ones who are trying to do the warning. Now, unless you feel and the spirit of God is telling you I'm completely wrong, If you believe what I'm speaking is the truth and the Spirit is testifying to it, then this is how the enemy is using it. And there's so many examples, I can't even have time to tell you. Here's the website if you wanna go read the documents yourself. Then the Muslim Brotherhood, which they put out their document called The Explanatory Memorandum. This is a 1991 document written for the strategic agenda of the Muslim Brotherhood, quote, to sabotage America and our miserable house, by their own words. If you know anybody in law enforcement, elected official, you gotta get a copy of this to them because after Obama took office, I think I said this last time, remember, all of these documents, this was entered into a court case called the Holy Land Foundation. It was the largest terror financing trial in American history. They had found out the Muslim Brotherhood operatives, by the way, the Muslim Brotherhood, next time you hear a Christian say Hamas that runs Gaza is okay, Remind them that the Muslim Brotherhood started Hamas in 1987. It was the Islamic Association of Palestine that morphed into Hamas. So when you hear Hamas, it's Muslim Brotherhood. Then, because the United States government in 1993 labeled the Hamas as a terrorist organization, in 1994, the Muslim Brotherhood started CAIR. Have you heard of CAIR? The Council on American-Islamic Relations, to be a fundraising arm for Hamas. So the government caught them in 2007 funneling millions of dollars to Hamas. They were about to go after them. They indicted them. They were about to charge them and send them to prison. And then we had an administrative change. Obama took over, Holder took over, and they shut down the trial. And then in 2008, 2009, the very people that were about to be indicted, the very organizations, were given access by the federal government, by the FBI, by the Justice Department, under the direction of Robert Mueller, FBI Director then Robert Mueller, to go into all of our top security training materials, national security, and purge any reference to Islam. or the Muslim Brotherhood, which is why this document is no longer in official counter-terrorism, FBI, DOJ, DOD training. We gotta get it into their hands. Plus, we have another booklet now that we've put together, CARE is Hamas. Well, we didn't put it together, the Center for Security Policy did, but I carry this because, again, if you're dealing with law enforcement or elected officials, I guarantee you here in the state of California, CARE is very much meeting with your elected officials at the highest levels. They have full carte blanche access, like we've seen in other states. So we need to expose that CAIR is a jihadist terrorist organization. And this book actually goes through the testimony of the FBI at the time that exposed CAIR and their support of Hamas. Remember, if you hear CAIR, you should hear Hamas. But unfortunately, we don't because our elected officials and our churches are letting CAIR in the door. And I kid you not. By the way, James White, the Interfaith Dialogue he had with Yasir Qadhi. Yasir Qadhi spoke and was the keynote speaker at a CARE event subsequently after the Interfaith. Two months after the Interfaith Dialogue, the first one, Qadhi is speaking at a CARE fundraiser for CARE. That's the moment that James White should have had a I gotta come to Jesus' moment and said, hey, Brother Brannon, Brother Sharam, Brother Usama, whoever, Brother whoever, I'm wrong. Forgive me, I made a mistake. And we would have said, hey, brother, no worries. We understand, we forgive you. Let's rectify this. Let's go before the body of Christ and say, this is error. Nope. Doubled down, tripled down, quadrupled down, as Pastor Brandon said, we got mercilessly attacked. Many of the supporters of the likes of James White, Phil Johnson, and others, they were out on Facebook and social media saying, I'm a fake Christian. I'm not even saved. So, one more piece of evidence here from the Muslim Brotherhood. Actually, a couple more things. In case you wonder if it's a one-way bridge, there's a guy named Saeed Qutub, who's a member of the Muslim Brotherhood back in the 1560s. He wrote this book called Milestones, which many Muslim organizations in the West use it as what's called dawah. Dawah is a term for evangelism. Well, it's not evangelism like we would say, but it's their version of evangelism. The idea of dawah is Muslims want to convert people to Islam, right? Better to convert them. So he said in his book, Milestones, that there is a limit to the interaction with the unbelievers. That's us. And here's the quote. The chasm between Islam, now this term, the jahiliyya, is a term for the unbelieving society. So for example, the United States is the jahiliyya. Does that make sense? We're an unbelieving society according to Islam. So any society that is an unbeliever, meaning that the majority of them are unbelievers, not Muslims, is the jahiliyyah. So here's the quote. The chasm between Islam and the jahiliyyah is great. And a bridge, one of the terms you hear in interfaith and ecumenicalism and in the missions community now is bridge building. Anybody heard that term? You may support mission organizations that will use that term. I'm vehemently against it for this very reason. Bridge building is the idea that Here's Christianity, here's Islam. Based on common ground, you build a bridge. And then what happens is, you go back and forth. And then you come to the middle, and you hang out, and you have some falafel, and you have some baklava, and some whatever, some kebab, and then you just hang out. And that's the best place. The best place that we just hang out in the middle. And that's how people that are supportive of the bridge movement will sell it. And they'll say, well, eventually, when they see the love of Jesus in us, no gospel, the love of Jesus, right, whatever that means nowadays, they'll come over to our side, they'll become Christians. Remember me? Remember how I told you in my testimony I had Christian friends? And for years, they didn't even share the gospel with me, they were very nice, but I did not know how to be saved and I was not saved. Meaning that at any moment had I died, I would have been destined for hell. So, you get it? Bridge building, right? Okay. Here are the words of the Muslim Brotherhood in their own words. The bridge is not to be built across it so that the people on the two sides may mix with each other, but only so that the people of Jahiliyyah, that's us, can come over to Islam. Did you get it? One way. Do you see how much of a spiritual threat this is? Yet again, I don't mean to keep referencing James White, but when James White did what he did, his friend Justin Peters comes out and says on social media, blasting us, Islam is not a spiritual threat to the church. Quote, quote. So all of the admonition in the New Testament about beware of false teachers, beware of false doctrines. I just read to you 1 Timothy chapter four about the doctrines of demons. Apparently, none of that matters. Well, part of it is because they're hyper-Calvinists, and they believe that nothing can pull you away. Look, I'm not talking about salvation. This is not an issue about whether someone who is a Christian can lose their salvation. It's an issue of can a Christian be deceived? Have you ever been deceived by anything? I have. As a Christian, I have. And so we all have to be on guard against deception. This is crazy that they make these statements. It's a one-way street. So the brotherhood is telling you, and again, so when they sent that letter in 2006, the first common word letter, one of the things that was interesting is that I spent a lot of time focusing on who the Christian signatories were of the 2008 one, but the Lord led me to go to look at the signatories of the initial 2006 document, the one that the Muslims initiated. And of the 138 signatories, More than 50, minimum, were members of the Muslim Brotherhood. The same group that is Hamas, the same group that is calling for the sabotage according to their own mission statement of our nation. Imam Faisal Abdul Rauf, member Ground Zero Mosque, Cordoba Initiative. Muslim Brotherhood, Nihar Awad, the head of CARE, Muslim Brotherhood. Director General of Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan, Sheikh Salim Falahat. Ingrid Mattson, former president of ISNA, Muslim Brotherhood. Saeed Mohammed Saeed, the current office of interfaith and community outreach for ISNA. These are all Brotherhood front groups, by the way. And you know how we know it, by the way? You know how we know this? Because we have these court documents. Don't take my word for it. The court documents that were entered in the federal court tell you ISNA is a front group, CARE is a front group. The FBI testified CARE is Hamas and the front group. The OIC, this guy, Issanoglu, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, this is the largest voting bloc in the UN. Outside of the UN itself, 56 Muslim countries, they throw in Palestine, you get 57. Very quickly, Minnesota Congressman Keith Ellison, the very first one to put his hand on the Koran, and be sworn into office, remember that? Now it's become common practice, you know that? Now it's become common practice in Congress and at the state and local levels that Muslims put their hand on the Quran and get sworn in. In my opinion, every single one of their oath of office is illegitimate. Every single one. But this is what's going on. And here's the thing. When they have to put their hand on the Bible to say, I pledge to support the Constitution like I did when I was a police officer or ran for office, they can lie. They're permitted to lie. But when they have to put their hand on the Koran, they don't have to lie anymore. We're making it easier for them to sabotage our own house. And the interfaith community and the movement is supporting that. By the way, Keith Ellison is now the Attorney General in the state of Minnesota. And the same place that Ilhan Omar comes from, 5th District. And to tell you how far CARE is in the pocket of the state of Minnesota, last year the incoming governor, Tim Walz, who's the new governor of Minnesota, when he was elected in 2018, the governor puts a transition team together, he put the head of care on his transition team. So the head of care, that is Hamas, is advising the governor of the state of Minnesota. Just to tell you how far up the ladder they are. Okay, real quick, Newhame Keller, the guy that wrote the book, or that put the book together that said Islam is the final religion, he signed a document saying we believe we have a common word. Why? Sheikh Ahmed Mohammed Al-Tayeb Al-Azhar. Remember that name? I'll get to it later. And numerous countries that are governed by Sharia law that kill and persecute and jail Christians signed a document saying we believe we have a common word. See, when I looked at this, you know the sniff test? It reeks of deception, because again, it's one way. And then of course in 2011, interfaith started exploding. We started seeing many, many churches promote interfaith, bring Muslims into the pulpits, focus on teaching about Muhammad. So, you know, interestingly enough, we're like, wow, man, the spirit of ecumenicalism is alive and well. So we should be seeing a lot of mosques, right? Remember, a lot of mosques should be opening their doors and letting Christians come in, right, and teach about Jesus Christ. So we're like, okay, well, several hundred churches participated. How many mosques did we find that participated in this interfaith movement where they opened their doors? Zero. Why? One-way street. Are you getting that theme? One-way street. And again, who was the first promoter of this in recent history? No other than Rick Warren. In 2009, when Mr. Warren goes and speaks at ISNA, he's at the ISNA conference speaking, a group that very clearly, by the way, in 2009, ISNA was still an unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terror financing trial. I don't know about you, but they couldn't pay me enough to speak at that conference. You think that a well-known pastor would have had some discernment unless he knows exactly what he's doing. Now, this is what Rick Warren said in his comment. This is what he said in front of the crowd. He said that, I'm not interested in interfaith dialogue, but interfaith projects. The idea is that we're gonna do these good works together, Muslims, Christians, we're gonna build schools and clean up our community, and through this, and yet at the same time, Rick Warren's church signed a document with a local mosque there in Los Angeles called the Kingsway Document, where they said in this document that we agree to not focus on proselytizing each other. That's not their focus anymore. We're just gonna do good works together. Folks, we call that the social gospel. We call that the social justice gospel. We call that, in my book, that's the abandonment of the Great Commission. How do you as a Christian agree, I'm not gonna focus on evangelism? unless we don't really care about the eternity. Now, remember I told you about Muhammad Al-Tayyeb? Here's Muhammad Al-Tayyeb, the head of Al-Azhar. Al-Azhar is the oldest Islamic school in the world, over 1,000 years old in Cairo, Egypt, Sunni Islam, which is the biggest population of Muslims. Here he is in February, signing a document with Pope Francis called the Fraternity of Human Dignity. And in the document, and by the way, I know Catholic bishops who've come out and I'm not gonna say condemn, because they won't condemn the Pope, but they've at least raised questions. And here's what happened in the document. Pope Francis and Mr. Altaib signed a document saying that, quote, it is the will of God that there be diversity in religion. Can you just stop and think about that for a second? It is the will of God. Exactly, I haven't read that in my Bible either. So the father, sends his son to die for all humanity. 20 years ago, I left Islam, became an apostate, have death threats in my life because I put my faith and my trust in that son. Amen? In that cross and in that gospel and in that resurrection because the will of God was that there was no way for man to be rectified but through his son. That was the will of God. And there was only one way that that could happen. Through Jesus Christ. This supposed vicar of Christ shows up now, signs a document with Al-Tayyeb. And guess who initiates the document? Al-Tayyeb. The Muslims are initiating all this. Because it's an anti-Christ spirit. And the document said, it's a diversity. It's a will of God, there's diversity in religion. I went on Facebook. And I wrote a post and I said that if anybody has questioned before that this individual, the Pope, is a heretic, this should pretty well close the argument. This is utter heresy. Utter heresy. Because why? This man, if he claims to be a vicar of Christ, just denied Jesus before man. If I say to the world, that God has willed there to be many religions. And God has willed there to be equality in religion. That's not the will of God, right? The will of God would have been had we never sinned, had we never fallen, had we obeyed him from the beginning. But the good news was that where there was no way, he made a way. Going back to Genesis 3.15, right? All the way back to the garden. Satan, I'll put enmity between you and the woman and her seed. You will bruise his heel, but he will crush your head. Amen? That's our victory. This guy comes out and says, no, no, it's the will of God. Any religion, multiple religions. So I wrote this. And then by the way, after they signed the document, I put this picture just so you can see it. They kissed. And I said, the Pope is a heretic. because he has now denied Jesus before man. So according to the scriptures, the father will deny him, or Jesus will deny him before the father, I should say. And I said, he is no different than Judas. He has now betrayed Jesus with a kiss. This is the days we're living in, folks. We are seeing the birth pains of that coming one world religion. Please pay attention. Please, again, armor up. The deception is great, but you know what? He is greater, amen? He is greater. We don't fret, but we gotta hang on. I don't know about you, I'm hanging on for dear life to the Lord. I'm like this, Lord, I'm not leaving you. I don't know about you, I don't wanna have this much gap between the Lord and I. I want to be right here with him in fellowship. Now we're seeing the weaponization. So again, I've shown you the spiritual dangers. I'm going to show you very quickly some of the national security aspects, because part of how interfaith is being weaponized The Muslim community is using it when they have a lot of their political activity now. This is one of the things I'll talk about tomorrow night at Hodel's, is all of their political activity. There's a massive uptick in their political activity in the United States in the last four years, particularly since President Trump's been elected, last three years, and moving forward. So for example, we see a lot of these Muslim days at the Capitol. You guys have them here in Sacramento. You have them here all, we have them in Washington State. In Washington, they started in 2010. CARE took over Martin Luther King Day. and now is calling it Muslim Day. They believe they're the new civil rights cause of America. So, but one of the things you see, for example, here in Minnesota last year, or earlier this year, when the Muslim American Society, which is again another Muslim, this is a Muslim Brotherhood front group. We know that from court documents. There's no argument about the fact that it's Muslim Brotherhood. What happened is when they show up, notice this, they show up with the interfaith groups. The interfaith groups show up to support them. Did you hear what I just said? So who's carrying the water for who? The interfaith Christians are carrying the water for the Islamic agenda. And when the Muslims show up at the Capitol, here's their top three legislative agendas. One, they want all Muslim religious holidays recognized governmentally across the United States. Number two, they want legislation against Islamophobia, what you and I would call hate speech legislation. which is already in Europe, and there's a resolution in Canada, M103, and they're pushing it here. They want it here. And this is birthed out of the UN, by the way, UN Agenda 1618. Again, I'll talk about this tomorrow night. And number three, hang onto your seats, they are pushing for gun control. Because within Islamic law, if you read the section on when the Muslim community takes the upper house, again, tomorrow night, I'm gonna be talking about all this stuff, in very great detail about the two houses of Islam. When they take the upper house and they make the non-Muslims, the jahiliyya, subservient, meaning the term is called dimitud. One of the conditions of dimitud for the non-Muslims is they must be disarmed. And I saw this firsthand in Iran. Within two years Khomeini, when they came into Iran, established the Islamic Republic of Iran under a brand new Sharia-based constitution. There is no separation of mosque and state in Iran. Within two years they disarmed the citizenry. And every single time you see protests in Iran, people trying to shake off this government, there's no way of defending themselves. So they get Arrested, tortured, jailed, executed brutally. Earlier in 2019, we had protests. There was protests, women coming into the streets of Tehran, taking their hijabs off, saying we're tired of Islam. And many of those people disappeared and were never seen again. Because there's no way of defending themselves. So why would the Muslim Brotherhood want to carry out the agenda of the left and the globalists to disarm us? Hmm. Red-green access, get it? So they're weaponizing interfaith. They're bringing CARE, this was an example, go back here, this was an example of a Lutheran church in Washington State bringing in CARE, like literally, CARE Washington, and as they came in, they were getting the Lutheran Christians to be trained up, they were offering training to how to recognize Islamophobia, the irrational fear of Islam, and report Islamophobes. That's why our ministry is a hate group. I don't know if I told this last time, but we're on the SPLC hate list. We're on CARES hate list, Islamophobia list. And I told this to some people last month at a meeting and they were like, what? We're the only church in the state of Washington that is labeled as a hate group. because of what I speak about. So, this is again what you see. So what do you see? Here's the trifecta. Here is the red-green axis again. I'm trying to make this very clear so you understand. So who is this? Alejandro Butel from the SPLC. The SPLC, their roots are communist. Got it? Okay. Who is hosting this interfaith faith over fear event? Kerr Washington. There's the Muslim Brotherhood. There's the green. Okay. Who is going to join them and carry their water? The interfaith community, right? This is Reverend Terry Kilo and this rabbi. They're there and they were going up and down Washington State having these events. We're going to hold hands with Muslims while the Muslims are, and again, I'm not talking about every Muslim, you understand, I'm talking about the Islamic agenda, while they're planning on this legislative agenda. they're working together. And here we saw in Minnesota, care of Minnesota, Muslims, Christians, and people of faith launch Path to Fight Islamophobia. In fact, the governor just released that in the state of Minnesota, first of its kind in the nation, they are now launching three government paid, government taxpayer paid, fighting Islamophobia centers. One in Bemidji, one in Duluth, and one in Worthington. Government funded centers that will fight on or combating Islamophobia. So guess who they're going to come after? Who are going to be the ones that they're going to put the full force of government against? We better get ready. And one more quick thing here is that any of you who are following the UN should understand that the aspect of Agenda 21 and Agenda 30, Agenda 2030, is all about not just global governance but global religion. Global Alliance of Religions joined PUSH for Agenda 2030. Great article by Alex Newman. I encourage you to go to New America and read this article. I don't have time to cover all of it, but it's talking about how they're going to come after—and here's the things they come after, right? They attack sovereignty, national sovereignty. They're coming after, of course, gun rights. They're going after marriage. Their entire agenda is climate change, right? How many of you know that 9-11, there was a meeting, a panel discussion that they had just recently at the 9-11 memorial in D.C.? Congress people from Congress who were Democrats, who were having invited the former Janet Napolitano, former DHS Secretary Jay Johnson, people from back in 9-11 days. And on 9-11, When they were asked about what is the greatest existential threat to the United States today, on 9-11, at the 9-11 memorial, there was no mention of Islam. There was no mention of Islamic terrorism or jihadism. Number one, come on, who wants to guess? Climate change. Number two, gun violence. These people have lost their minds, but it's not a joke. So again, really important to pay attention there. And we are seeing interfaith, not just local, we're seeing interfaith weaponized and globalized. They launched this last year, and unfortunately, this is the Trump administration, folks in the State Department, the Alliance of the Virtue for Common Good, the Washington Declaration. Again, guess who started this initiative, and where does the root of this initiative? This initiative goes back to Medina, to Muhammad. This is the way he went into Medina. When he went to Medina, when he was in a minority, he went to Medina, he went under the guise of, we have common ground, until they got enough power and enough military might, and then they flipped, and they went to the upper house, and they subjugated everyone in Medina. Either you pay the jizya, or you get out, or you be killed. So they're using the same thing now to bring in Christians into this global interfaith movement. So again, I say one more time, we are in the birth pains, and we have to resist and speak up against this push for the globalization. By the way, this push for the globalization, our brand new DVD, besides the sabotage, is we have a brand new DVD called War on Christians, you see on the screen there. And this is documenting the rise of Islam, but also the global Christian persecution that is at historic levels, and the rise of anti-semitism. Very powerful DVD on this whole entire thing. And again, not only, folks, again, not only did I see this last year when, as Pastor Brandon said, we had our event threatened in Sioux Falls, South Dakota with a heavily armed Muslim man. Then we had our event shut down, World View Weekend events, where Brandon Howells and myself shut down in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Care, Antifa, SPLC, and the interfaith community all worked together to shut down our events last minute. Their M.O. was wait till the last minute, put pressure, pressure, pressure, threats. Antifa was calling the venues threatening violent protests, and they just capitulate and then shut down. So we thought churches will be safe. Surely a church won't cancel us. Guess I was wrong. Here we go. Charisma was covered. Actually, Charisma, before the church canceled, this thing went national. Charisma was covering the fact that I was going to be in Michigan sharing my testimony. There was hundreds, 400 people that were expecting to come that night. But the church caved. So here's Worldwide Daily, church canceled 9-11 event under pressure from CARE. This is the church I'm talking about in Michigan. Here is Washington Post. Baptist Church cancels 9-11 event. And here, watch this, they get quotes from the Christian scholars refuting us. Remember who the Christian scholars were? Fuller Theological, Leith Anderson, all the same players in the common word movement are the same players that the left uses to denounce those of us And here is someone standing in front of you folks who came out of Islam. Born again, spirit filled, came out of Islam. In fact, I've studied more about Islam and the threats and the dangers and their strategy since I've been a Christian than before when I was a Muslim. And they find their token Christian scholars and they come out against us. Now listen, I don't care, right? Because despite all that, I was gonna show up. I was gonna be there on 9-11. if the church hadn't canceled. Okay, I gotta finish. So in the DVD, I know you remember thinking, okay, Pastor Hadian, is there some equipping you can do as far as biblically? How do we refute interfaith? Yes. Again, in the DVD, we go through multiple verses like this one, when the apostle Paul says, do not be bound together with unbelievers for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness or fellowship has light with darkness. So again, folks, if the Quran denies everything about the Bible and the Bible denies everything about the Quran, and the major tenant, what fellowship is there between light and darkness? How can we sit in interfaith and invite a Muslim into the pulpit or in the church and set up and have this dialogue when this is a spirit, and that's what I'm trying to show, it's a spirit of Antichrist. And just to give you an example, in Wilmer, Minnesota, which is a huge interfaith community there that fights me. When I was just there in July, they were constantly taking ads out on the paper. Thank God the churches did not cancel though. Here's the Islamic Society of Wilmer. You know when this timing is, by the way? How many of you remember the New Zealand mosque shootings earlier this year? So when the New Zealand mosque was shot up and 50 Muslims were killed, by the way, not by a Christian, not by a Trump supporter, despite what you may have heard from the media, but by an anarchist, leftist, pro-China, pro-communist, if you read the manifesto before they took it down. So here's the interfaith community with the Muslim community. We stand with you, right? If you watch the video of this, the Christians, the Lutheran social service and the Lutheran churches, they were all there crying, well, we're so sorry, forgive us, you know, whatever, okay, right? Okay, all right. No gospel, no sharing Jesus. So, Easter weekend, what happened? Who remembers? Come on. Sri Lanka. Remember Sri Lanka? On Resurrection Sunday, almost 300 Christians killed, 22 children in Zion Church blown up. That morning in Sunday school, they were singing that I am willing to die for Jesus. And they go outside because it was between Sunday school and the regular service. They're out in the courtyard playing. And by the way, it wasn't an atheist that killed them. It wasn't a Trump supporter. It was a Muslim jihadist. We know that for sure. Who came in and detonated his vest. Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama. Remember the term they came up with? Easter worshipers. A term we've never heard of before. So you think that these Christians who stood with the Muslims when the Muslims lost their lives, they should have surely had an event in Wilma, right? Or across the country saying we stand with our persecuted Christian brothers and sisters who are being massacred by Muslims, right? We should have seen that, right? Yet nothing, crickets. No event, not even a peep on Facebook or social media. That shows you, in my opinion, who their father is. Watch this, here's their words. You tell me if this sounds Christian. Here's the tenant of the Wilmer Interfaith Network, spiritual threat. This is the kind of people that James White is supporting. That Justin Peters and all those that are in that camp are supporting, saying it's okay to do these events. Interfaith dialogue. This is their own language from their own Facebook page. Interfaith dialogue is possible only when two convictions pre-exist in the participants. Meaning between Muslims, Christians, Jews, whoever. One, no participant is seeking to proselytize any other participant. Can you as a Christian agree to that? As a Christian, can I agree that I will not share the gospel and evangelize no matter what? No, I can't agree with that. So that right there is an abandonment of the Great Commission, is it not? Number two, watch this, watch this. The participants are persuaded of the inherent validity, now watch this, the inherent validity and integrity of all the faith groups involved in dialogue and are persuaded that no group possesses total and absolute knowledge regarding the nature and works of God and human involvement with the divine. Did you get that? A lot of wording there? So the participants are persuaded of the inherent validity and integrity that all faith groups, meaning all religions, involved in the dialogue, are persuaded that there's no group that has all truth about who God is. Because last time, I thought that the Word of God, the Bible, is the full counsel of God, is the revelation of God, and that it is irrefutable in its inerrant. It is the full knowledge that we need of God, right? So according to those who are Christian, and this is the ELCA Lutheran Church, and the Presbyterian Church, and the Methodist Church, and some of the evangelical churches, and Catholics. I mean, again, as I said, there's no denominational boundary here to this deception. Forget the denominations. Southern Baptist, forget it. J.D. Greer, head of Southern Baptists, came out in a statement talking about how Islam is Abrahamic and the three great faiths. There's no denominational distinction. It's about deception or truth. Can I ask you a question one more time before I move on? Can any of you agree to these two conditions? Would you not be denying the faith? Because condition one says, I'm not gonna proselytize or evangelize. Condition two says, the Bible doesn't have all truth. Islam has some truth, Mormonism has some truth, Catholicism has some truth, Judaism has some truth, and we all gotta agree that we all need each other to find the totality of God. What? Hogwash. This is what they're pushing. So one more time, one more time, abandoning the Great Commission and the Gospel, one-way street. One-way street. By the way, the Muslim community in Wilmer or Minnesota or across the country, we didn't see them come out on force and say, we stand with you Christians after Sri Lanka. But in New Zealand, the Prime Minister donned a hijab, went on the airwaves. They had the azan, the call of prayer, the Islamic call of prayer, and the shahada, the profession of faith to Islam, playing over the airwaves. We had politicians in New Zealand calling the New Zealand attacks an act of Christian terrorism, even though there was no Christian involved. Yet nobody came out and said that was Islamic terrorism in Sri Lanka. You see the double standards, the one-way street. All right, finally, Islam, as I said, listen, if you get the DVD, one of the things you'll see very clearly is why Islam is an anti-Christ spirit in alignment with 1 John 2, 1 John 4, 2 John 7-11. Very clearly, you'll see the picture. Notice I'm not saying an individual Muslim, and I'm not saying the Antichrist. It is an Antichrist spirit, meaning denying Jesus has come in the flesh, denying Jesus as the Christ, denying the Father, denying the Son, denying the crucifixion, denying the resurrection, denying the Holy Spirit, denying the Trinity. You want me to keep going? So to wrap it up for you guys tonight and today, thank you guys for your time, Pastor Brandon, thank you for the time. Here we go, we're gonna wrap it up here. There is no common word, have I shown you that? Spiritually speaking, impossible. There is no common God. There is, Islam is not Abrahamic, and I'll show you these reasons here. So that's the top three. Remember the four? Remember the four that I started the beginning with? So, no common God, the word, no common God. If there's no common God, Islam cannot be Abrahamic. And I'll give you the four reasons here very quickly. One, very simply, during the time of Abraham, in the Bible, there's no mention of Islam. That's kind of a no-brainer, right? Number two, Even though Arabs can trace their descendancy or lineage back to Ishmael in some regards, just because you're an Arab does not mean you're a Muslim. Does that make sense? Being a Muslim or Muslim is a religious term. It's not a geographical term because there's Muslims from all over the world. And in fact, more than 80% of the world's Muslim population are not Arabs. They don't speak Arabic. They're not Arabs. They're not descendants of Ishmael. So you can't make the statement just because someone is a Muslim to automatically trace back to Ishmael. You see what I'm saying? Number three, get stronger. If Islam was Abrahamic, then in the Quran, when it talks about the covenant of Abraham, it should support the Abrahamic covenant of the Bible. What's the Abrahamic covenant of the Bible? I just covered it for you guys in the Sunday school class. The seed blessing was through who? The promised son was who? Isaac, right? Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. And through that promised son, remember when Paul talks about this in Galatians 4, the son of the flesh, Ishmael, the son of the promise, right? That promised son would bear what? The lineage of the Messiah. So if Islam was Abrahamic, shouldn't it support the same covenant? In fact, the Quran claims the Jews stole the covenant from Ishmael. And when Abraham went to the mountain, we don't know, well, the Quran doesn't say where, later in the Sunnah, it says Mecca, not Mount Moriah. It says that Abraham took his son Ishmael to the altar to be sacrificed. Oops. So you have the wrong son, wrong covenant, wrong location. If one covenant contradicts completely the promises of the other covenant, how can they both be Abrahamic and of the same God? Too much logic? So therefore, one is of God and one is not. And by the way, if you deny Isaac as the promised son, you deny the Messiah. Right? If you cut the lineage, you cut the lineage of the Messiah. The book of Matthew chapter one goes through the lineage, right? Read it, goes all the way back, goes through the lineage. So, can't be true. But, one more stronger reason. The apostle Paul says it in the book of Galatians. He says, those who are of faith are the sons of Abraham. Well, question for you, therefore be sure that it is those who are of faith who are sons of Abraham, so then those who are of faith are blessed with Abraham the believer. I'm sorry, can I ask you a question? Are Muslims of faith? No, unless you believe the interfaith camp. So Muslims are not of faith. So if Muslims are not of faith, they cannot be sons of Abraham. You understand? They can't be Abrahamic. So when we have major mission organizations now and missional pastors and Christian pastors saying Islam is Abrahamic, like J.D. Greer, the head of SBC, Southern Baptist Convention, they are speaking error. because they're equating something to Islam that should never be equated to Islam, and they're denying the Abrahamic covenant, scripturally speaking. And you know what? I guarantee most of them don't even know what the heck they're doing, because they don't know what they're doing, because they don't have people who can come and talk to them and say, here's why. Do you know that I've offered, I've offered free of charge to go to mission conferences and speak on this subject, and they won't let me within 500 feet of the building, I promise you. because I think you've seen today, it's a little bit too much logic, right? And so once you present it, it's undeniable, they're gonna have to either deny scripture or repent. So they don't want to do it. Muslims don't worship Jesus the true Messiah. You know what the number one reason is? Because they deny the crucifixion. How can Jesus be the Messiah if he was never atoned for sin? If he was never crucified, nor died, he can't be the Messiah. Make sense? So, what is our call to wrap up? We've got to declare the gospel. I'm not ashamed of the gospel, are you? Are you? I'm not. Let's declare the power, the power thereof, okay? Romans 1. And I pray today was a wake-up call. I pray that today was not just for the church, but for our nation, a wake-up call to understand here are the strategies, here's how the enemy's working this, here's how the enemies of our nation is doing this, but more so the enemies of the cross. Islam, now notice I didn't say individual Muslims. Islam is an enemy of the cross. For goodness sake, church, if it denies the crucifixion ever happened, how can you have more of an enemy of the cross to deny that the cross ever happened? Islam has breached our nation and our churches, and the left is helping it, just like it did in Europe. Repent and turn back to God. This is to all of us or to those who are doing this practice. My offer to anybody like James White is please, for the love of the Lord Jesus Christ, repent and turn back. Stop compromising the word of God. Pastors and ministers of the gospel, we gotta raise up and make our voices heard. And as I said in the Sunday school hour, when you have a pastor in Michigan, that pastor of that church, who was boldly standing, and his congregation and his elders didn't back him up, and they caved, what a shame. I said in the Sunday school hour, I'll say now, you guys have a bold pastor here, amen? You have a bold pastor. Stand with your leadership. Stand with your pastor. If they're standing for the truth, if they're sticking their neck out, we as the body have to pray for them and back them up, amen? Return to biblical evangelism. That's what we're gonna be doing tonight. Come 5.30, we'll equip that. One more initiative I'd like you to do for me. If you wanna join us in pushing back on this interfaith movement, we wrote a four-page document with Branagh House, Dr. Andy Woods, and a couple other pastors. Four pages, biblical refuting. Basically what's covered in the DVD, we have it on a document. So if you go to our website, under the tab, Say No to Interfaith, you can click on that, read the document, you can print it out. You can print it out. If you're not part of this church, you're somewhere else, or you know people that are part of other churches, give it to them. Take it to them. Encourage them to go and have a respectful, loving, prayerful conversation with their pastor, with their church leadership, with their elders. Where do we stand? Do you agree? By the way, if you agree to the document, if you read it, you agree, you can help us. Lend us your signatory. We're trying to combat the false common word signatory with Christians who are willing to stand. We now have over 350 signatories from 40 states, three Canadian provinces, about 25 pastors. Would you join us? Simple thing you can do if you agree with the document. And then finally, we have these 10 questions that you can also print that can be a conversation starter with your church leadership or with your family or with a mission organization. If you're supporting a mission organization that is engaged in interfaith, in ecumenicalism, by the way, that's what Wilmer was promoting, right? The Wilmer Interfaith Network, the idea that all are equal, none have the truth. That's ecumenicalism. So I just encourage you, if you're supporting an overseas mission organization, have a good, honest, tough conversation with them. Don't give your money away if you don't know that they're solid. I just encourage you because a lot of how this is coming into the church is through missions. And so these 10 questions are there to start you. And look at the number one question. Should be a straightforward answer. Do you believe that Muslims and Christians worship the same God? If you get anything but emphatically no, you have a problem on your hands, don't you? That's a red flag. So it's a starting point, okay? Tonight we'll get to the gospel. Salvation is found in no other name, amen? So again, why are we exposing this? Sharon, why do you spend an hour and a half on this? Because we must, in order to bring the church back to the place that it's called to be, to the fulfilling of the great commission, to standing for the word of God, to standing for the things that God is standing for in his word. And that's why we're doing what we're doing. And again, I tell you, the amount of opposition we see, I believe is because this is effective. This is waking up believers. And so, I mean, could you give me a yes or no? Do you think that today was convincing? So this is why we need to get this message out and continue to push back on this entire movement. So salvation found no one else. And again, tonight sharing Christ with Muslims. If you'd like to join us at five 30, we'll be sharing a modified short version of this presentation. And then tomorrow night, six o'clock Hodel's act for America sabotage, how America is being sabotaged from within. Thank you, pastor Brandon. I'll turn it back to you, Lord. God bless you guys and stand for the Lord. Amen. Amen.
