Antithesis of Identiying a Problem by Saying There is No Problem

Submitted by M. Tovey (United States), Mar 9, 2015 at 15:35

In the vein of the previous hypothesis where, in the Islamicized mindset that Islam is only a problem if one choses not to practice its tenets religiously, is this not the process of mesmerization conducted by the cobra before it strikes? Further, it was postulated by the previously mentioned premise that 'there is no solution to radical Islam.' This observer concurs with this, as well as the follow on - "if this fundamental aspect of Islam ceases to exist or is transformed, on that day, Islam will no longer be Islam."

From this observer's perspective, Islam exists for a reason, a reason not too many will appreciate. It is a Biblical one.

In His period of fulfilling His first misson to Israel, Yeshua stated that those who with Him and were obedience to His commandments, were the sheep He came to save by the power of His love and His shed blood. Those that reject Yeshua would be left to follow their own paths to whatever destruction their rebellion leads them to. This does not apply merely to followers of Islam; but all who surrender to Yeshua will bear the fruits of His love.

Therefore, if one chooses not to follow in discipleship the LORDship of Yeshua, then following any other choice that may be offered can occur, like that of Islam. But, beware, it does start a cause of real concern; choosing Islam and ignoring its affects on a world that needs Christ, but cannot come to grips with His love and salvation, will never achieve world peace. And some will say that is a problem.
