Topic # 1 Quite The Contrast 
The Christian classic In His Steps by Charles Sheldon asked “What would Jesus do?” The age of the acronym reduced it to WWJD. What if you used the same concept with Mohammed? How do the two founders of their faiths compare in their conduct? The founder of Islam is known for multiple wives, child brides, bloody warfare, lying and stealing. None of these charges can be attributed to Jesus. My friend John Fisk makes the salient point that if you follow the religious ideology of Islam you can be just like its founder. In fact, the better Muslim you are, the more you would be like him. I prefer to follow the example of Jesus.
It is also interesting that the acronym for “what would Mohammed do?” includes WMD, famously used for weapons of mass destruction. I believe this applies to Islam on several levels, most seriously the eternal judgment of those who deny the fatherhood of Yahweh and sonship of Yashua (Jesus).
Finally, the better question is not what would Jesus do? But what did He do? He did not live for His own will, but the will of the Father. He did nothing of His own initiative, as John’s Gospel declares, but He always asked the Father what to say and do. Then Jesus answered and said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner.” John 5:19
Topic #2 IAF Landed At Saudi Base
The Israeli Air Force recently unloaded military equipment at a Saudi Arabian base, an Iranian news agency claimed last week, while a large American force has massed in Azerbaijan, which is on the northwest border of Iran. The report follows the Pentagon’s confirmation that a large American fleet sailed through the Suez Canal earlier this month, with an Israeli ship joining the armada. (IsraelNationalNews.com)
FATHER and SON
Who has ascended into heaven, or descended? Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has bound the waters in a garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and what is His Son’s name, If you know? Proverbs 30:4
Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also. 1 John 2:22-23

Jerusalem: Best City

Topic # 1 Jerusalem Best in Africa and Middle East
Travel and Leisure magazine has declared Jerusalem the number one city to visit in the Middle East and Africa for the summer and fall vacation seasons.
Cape Town, South Africa placed number two on the list of 10, and Tel Aviv came in third place.
The list was compiled based on a survey of readers who had recently visited the region. They ranked cities according to enjoyment of sights, culture and arts, dining, attitude of local residents, shopping and overall value.
From January to July of this year, Israel has seen a record number of tourists. Well over 1.5 million people have visited Israel during the first half of the year, and the numbers are expected to grow as the biblical High Holy Days approach. (Israel Today Magazine—www.israeltoday.co.il.)
Topic #2 Abbas Is a Deceiver X3
Three headlines in ten days illustrate the duplicity of the Palestinian “Peace Partner”.
Abbas honors Hezbollah spiritual leader PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and Fatah have honored Muhammad Hussein Fadlallah, who was on the U.S. list of wanted terrorists.
Mahmoud Abbas: “If all of you [Arab States] will fight Israel, we are in favor. Palestinians will not fight alone because they don’t have the ability.”
Abbas honors mastermind of Munich Olympics massacre. PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas has praised the mastermind of the murders of 11 Israeli athletes in the 1972 Munich Olympics as “a wonderful brother, companion, tough and stubborn, relentless fighter.” (Please visit Palestinian Media Watch to read each article at www.palwatch.org).
Arise, Jerusalem! Let your light shine for all the nations to see! For the glory of Yahweh is shining upon you. Darkness as black as night will cover all the nations of the earth, but the glory of Yahweh will shine over you. All nations will come to your light. Mighty kings will come to see your radiance.… Your gates will stay open around the clock to receive the wealth of many lands. The kings of the world will be led as captives in a victory procession. (Is.60:1-3, 11 NLT)Share this:
