All right, everybody, if you would, take your song book and turn to page number six. Page number six of your song book, we're singing Beneath the Cross of Jesus. Song number six. A home within the wilderness, the rest upon the way. From the burning of the noontide heat and the burden of the day. Upon that cross of Jesus my knife at times can see. The very dying form of one who suffered there for me. And from my smitten heart with tears to wonders I confess. The wonders of his glorious love and my own worthlessness I take from my shadow for my abiding place. I ask no other sunshine than the sunshine of his face. Content to let the world go by to no gain nor loss. My sinful self, my only shame, my glory hauled across. All right, so one of the word of prayer. We thank you, Lord. Thank you for giving us a chance to come here to gather together to sing praise your name, to hear the preaching word. I pray you bless each and every one of us that are able to come here to hear the preaching of the word and sing praise your name, Lord. Bless us today. Help us to get something special off the surface that will help us to be bear creatures as we go out today. And bless the soul that used to follow and praise things in Jesus' name. Amen. All right, next song we're singing is song number 13. We're singing song 13, Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone? Song number 13. Must Jesus bear the cross alone and all the world go free? Know there's a cross for everyone, then there's a cross for me. The consecrated cross I'll bear till death shall set me free. And then go hold my crown to wear, for there's a crown for me. Upon the crystal pavement down at Jesus' piercing feet, joyful, I'll cast my golden crown and His dear name repeat. O precious cross, O glorious crown, O resurrection day, ye angels from the stars, come down and bear my soul away. Good morning. Thank you so much for coming to Step Past Baptist Church. If you need a bulletin, you can lift your hand nice and high. One of the ushers will get a bulletin to you. On the inside, we have our service and soul winning times. Take note at the bottom, the nursing home ministries have been suspended temporarily. On the right-hand side, we have the stats for April and the year. If you do any soul winning, please just try to text me or at least provide that information Sunday night. If you're not going to be your Sunday night services, please at least just text me that information so we can keep our bulletin updated. Down below, we also have a list of all our expecting ladies. I have put in there also the Oklahoma City and the Pure Words Baptist ladies as well. And so please be in prayer for all of them. That list keeps on growing. So hopefully, you know, I like that. But eventually some of these are going to produce a child. So I'm pretty excited. A lot of stuff getting close. Also, we're on Leviticus chapter 20 verse 25. So if you please keep working on that. On the back, we have the note about just our temporary church rules just to try and keep ourselves as safe and healthy as possible right now. And then also we have our next men's preaching class. It's going to be April 25th. So it's this upcoming Saturday at 6 p.m. We'll be going over chapters 14 and 15 from the Teaching on Preaching book by Dr. Jack Hiles. If for whatever reason you need to, you can always find it online. There's like many websites that even have it online for free too. So if you don't know where you put yours or something, but you can always check it out that way. If you need one, I'd probably have to order a few more. I can. If anybody needs one, let me know so that way I can get a book to you. But you're also welcome to join the class at any time. So if you say, I haven't been in the preaching class ever, I haven't been in a while. You're always welcome to join the men's preaching class. Just have a five to seven minute sermon prepared. And this next preaching class, I kind of challenge the guys to try and preach on something that they felt like they saw in their Bible that was new to them. Not necessarily a new doctrine, but just new information to them. They saw a verse they hadn't really seen before or they felt like they saw something that they really liked or a new way to look at something. So hopefully they've already got that ready to go or this week they'll be ready. So if you'd like to join us April 25th, the other events that we kind of have on our calendar, they are somewhat, you know, we're not sure exactly if they're going to happen or not, depending on how our state follows, you know, opening up the state again or anything like that. But I'll keep you updated. So but everything's still on the calendar. The Bahamas missions trip has definitely been postponed, but I don't know exactly when we're going to go back again. Hopefully it's going to be, you know, toward the end of the summer or the beginning of the fall. But I'll let you know as soon as airlines decide they're going to still fly there. So as soon as they decide to go, then we're going to start going unless we want to swim. And if anybody's like really good at swimming, maybe not. So that's pretty much it for announcements. Let's go to our next song. Number 10 near the cross. All right. So song number 10, where you sing near the cross. Song number 10. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, This is still a good description of the fact that it's just faith and his atonement. So notice they get it right. They're not attacking a works-based salvation here. What's their view? If you have faith in God, believe in his messengers, and obey his commands, then he shall multiply every single good deed that you do many, many times and erase your evil deeds until the day of judgment. His mercies will cause your good deeds to far outweigh your evil deeds and grant you passage into ecstasy and paradise so great that we cannot even imagine it to abide there here eternally, and the hereafter there is only reward and no work. So they always call heaven the hereafter, and they basically say that your good is going to outweigh your bad, you make it in. So that's like every religion except for Christianity. Every religion except for the Bible is you do more good than bad, you basically make it in, and not only that, Allah will multiply your good, so it's not even exactly proportional to your good and bad, he just multiplies your good just so it's so much more good than your bad anyways. So their main disagreements are what? The trinity, that Jesus is not the son of God, they disagree with the original sin, which I do too. They don't believe in the atonement of the death of Jesus Christ, or the incarnation, which just means God in flesh. So from their scriptures, this is what they say, those who believe in the Quran and those who follow the Jewish scriptures and the Christians and the Sabeans, any who believe in Allah in the last day and work righteousness shall have their award with their Lord, on them shall be no fear nor shall they grieve. Now what's interesting is, since he gave this portion of scripture over 23 years, it changes. And the beginning portion, he's really nice to Christians and Jews, because he's borrowing from them. So he acts like all the Christians and Jews are great and they're kind of saved, they're just like lesser saved or something like that. Later it gets a lot more extreme. When what? Oh, he's confronted with war. At first it's peaceful, it's kind, it's nice, then he's confronted with war and eventually the scriptures turn to bloody you know, slate them. That's convenient. Convenient that whenever you're at war, all of a sudden the scriptures being revealed are like, let's kill them, okay? But they say that you have to believe and have work righteousness. Verse 82 says, but those who have faith and work righteousness, they are companions of the garden. 2277 say, those who believe and do deeds of righteousness and establish regular prayers and regular charity will have their word with the Lord. Surah chapter 2 verse 25 says, but give glad tidings to those who believe and work righteousness. So their gospel is a gospel of works. But that's not good news. That's not glad tidings. Work, work, work. Work and you can go to heaven. That's not glad, glad tidings is the fact that we just believe in Jesus Christ and we get to go to heaven. That's the glad tidings. They have a repenting of your sin. Look, it's the Cain religion. The Cain religion is a works-based religion. Ours is a faith-based religion. Go if you would to Romans 3. I'll read a few verses. The Bible says, is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid, for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. So the Bible tells us if it was possible for God to allow us to go to heaven based on works righteousness, He would have given that. But it's not possible. Why? Because God is just. God can't let any sin go unpunished. Whereas the view of Allah is that God can just forgive sin with just no recourse. Now we believe that we have to have the substitutionary atonement of the blood of Jesus Christ to get us into heaven. They believe Allah can just say, oh, no problem. Sure. There's sins wiped away. There's nothing. You know what that makes Allah unjust? Because there's no punishment. There's no payment. There's no recourse. He just deems whatever He wants and just does whatever He wants. And they attack the God of the Bible by saying, oh, He had to have a sacrifice. Yeah, because He's just. Because He's holy. Because He's righteous. He can't just let wickedness come into heaven just because. He said, well, I'm sorry. Imagine someone killing your loved one, killing your child and walking the judge and just saying, I'm sorry. OK, no, no problem. He said he was sorry. Who cares? Oh, he did it again. Oh, he said he was sorry, though. Look, that would be an unjust judge. You would be mad at that judge for just letting him get off. Or what if he didn't even say sorry? What if he just said, well, I gave two point five percent of my income to the poor. OK, no problem. No, no problem. He killed that person. No problem. He did all this wickedness. That is the God of Islam, the all of God. Oh, you can just wipe it away and you'll multiply your good to where it'll outweigh that bad. Look, God didn't do that. He sent his son and his son became sin for us who knew no sin. He was a perfect atonement and sacrifice. He was the perfect and spotless lamb, which all that imagery and all that illustration the Bible clearly articulates is gone in the Quran. There is no imagery. There is no metaphors. Their sacrifice is a cow. Now, there are oxen that are killed to sacrifice in the Bible, but that's not the picture of Jesus Christ. It has some semblance, but the semblance is that perfect, spotless lamb. Their semblance is a middle aged cow that's fawn colored. What does that have to do with redemption? What does that have to do? They just have to do sacrifices, but they don't even know why. There's no meaning to their symbolism. They just have to take four birds and just throw them out into the wind and hope they return to prove truth and righteousness. What does that mean? There's just no meaning. They just do random sacrifices because they're perverting the scriptures, coming from an unsaved mind that doesn't know the Bible. The Bible says in Romans chapter 3 verse 23, for all of sin it comes short of the glory of God. We have a problem, a sin problem that can only be justified by what? Verse 24, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God has set forth to be of propitiation through faith and His blood, to declare His righteousness for the remission of sins that are past through the forbearance of God. To declare, I say at this time, His righteousness that He might be just and the justifier of Him which believeth in Jesus. Now, that's such an important verse, saying what? When I stand before God and I get to go to heaven, you know who that justifies? Jesus Christ. I get to go on His righteousness, His blood, not anything that I did. According to Allah, I get to go there based on my righteousness. I get the glory. Look what I've done. It's a doctrine of pride. It's saying, look at all the good that I did. See how it outweighs all the bad? Of course I'm getting in. It's a works-based righteousness for those who are prideful. Christianity is for those who are humble and accept, you know what, I can't get in. I'm unworthy. I don't deserve heaven. I have to get through the blood of Jesus Christ. And when we do that, we're declaring His righteousness that He's just. And notice we're justified because we believe in Him. That's why it says in verse 27, where is no boasting then? It is excluded. There is no boasting before God. According to the religion of Islam, they have to boast their way into heaven. They have to brag their way into heaven. They have to prove all their works that got them into heaven. Whereas we believe in the atonement of Jesus Christ. By what law? Of works, nay, but by the law of faith. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. Is he the God of the Jews only? Not also the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also. Seeing it as one God which will justify the circumcision by faith and uncircumcision through faith. Everyone is saved by faith or they're not saved. There's no other plan getting into heaven. There's no other dispensation. There's no other age. There's no other gospel. There's one gospel. And that gospel, that good news is that Jesus died on the cross, was buried and rose again, and if we put our faith in Him, we get to go to heaven. That's the good news. If I say you have to be more good than bad to get into heaven, that's bad news. Good luck with that. So they'll talk about how Christians and Jews, they're like half bad. They're not like that bad. They'll still stand before God on judgment day and they'll basically have to work out their own tiff between them because they have the same scriptures but one of them believes them and one of them doesn't. But here's the problem. If you threw the Bible away and you only had the book of Islam, the Quran, you wouldn't understand it. It doesn't explain who Abraham is. It'll say, hey, remember when we delivered Abraham? No, I don't because I didn't read the Bible. Remember Moses? No, I don't because he didn't explain it to me. Remember all these great stories that you had from the Bible? Yeah, I remember because the Bible is great. And what you're saying is trash. What you're saying is filth. What you're saying doesn't even make sense half the time. So, number one, they pervert God and salvation and that was my longest point by far. I have two more quick points. Number two, they have perverted views though. Not only do they pervert God and salvation, it gets way worse. They have really sick, disgusting doctrines. Like in Surah chapter 2 verse 34 it says, we said to the angels, bow down to Adam. Which is a confusing doctrine. First of all, it's the we, so again, they're gods of multiplicity, but it's not. And he's telling the angels to worship Adam. Which, how does that even make sense to their theology? Because isn't Allah the only one worthy of worship? I mean, they created Adam, who's a man, and then he's telling angels to worship a man in the presence of their multiplicity god. This verse just doesn't make sense in their doctrine. But it kind of does. You know why? And it says, and they bowed down. So, all the angels bowed down to Adam. But it says, not so Iblis, which means Satan. So, the only one that didn't worship Adam was Satan. He refused and was haughty. He was of those who reject faith. Now, this is like the exact opposite, okay? Because angels were supposed to serve mankind and the devil, what did he do? He tricked mankind and deceived mankind and went against him. It's trying to make Satan sound like the good guy by not worshiping man here. Think about the satanic doctrine here, right? It's trying to make the devil sound good by not worshiping a man. I wonder who came up with that doctrine. Then, this is what they say about the devil. The evil one threatens you with poverty and bids you to conduct unseemly. Allah promised you his forgiveness and bounties and Allah careth for all and knoweth all things. It's that stupid sounding, okay? He's saying that the devil's trick is trying to get you to be poor. That's the exact opposite. It's called the deceitfulness of riches. The devil, yeah, all the celebrities, they're enlightened. All us poor folk, we're the ones that are trapped by the... What nonsense! Who comes up with this evil doctrine? Oh yeah, it was the devil. You know why their sacrifice is a cow? For the sake of time, I can't go there. If you want, you can go to Ezekiel chapter 10. I'm not going to use very many verses here. You know what's interesting about the devil? You know what the devil looks like? A cow. Isn't that interesting that their sacrifice is to an animal, to a heifer, and that's what the devil is described as looking like? You know what the Bible tells us? Ezekiel chapter 1 verse 10 says that when he saw these cherry bims, they had four faces. They had the face of a man, the face of a lion, they had the face of an ox, and they had the face of an eagle, okay? And Ezekiel chapter 10 verse 14, it says, let's look at this. The latter part says what? The face of a man? So we check. Face of a lion? Check. The face of an eagle? Check. So there's one that's mismatched. It's the man and it's the cherub. So what does that mean that, or I'm not the man, I'm sorry, the ox and the cherub? So what does a cherub look like? It looks like an ox. It looks like a baby calf. I wonder what do Hindus worship? Oh yeah, they worship the cow, don't they? They think it's so holy. Oh yeah, what's the sacrifice of Islam? Oh yeah, a cow. What's a picture of money? The cow. What did Aaron grave whenever Moses went up on the mount? Oh yeah, a golden calf. It's the devil's religion here, okay? What's God's religion? The lamb, alright? Another thing, they believe in seven heavens. More of their brainwashing propaganda, they say this, would you question your messenger as Moses was questioned of old? I don't remember that story because I didn't read the Bible according to your faith, okay? But whoever changes from faith to unbelief has strayed without doubt from the even way. So they have to just sit here and just say, you know, why would you question the messenger? Why would you question the messenger? And they also have to say this, this is what Abraham said, oh Lord, make of us Muslims, bowing to thy will. So you just have to sit there, make us Muslims, bow to thy will, make us Muslims, bow to... That doesn't sound like propaganda to me. Well, eventually, you know, people didn't like him enough, they wanted to kill him. So the scriptures take a dark turn because it's pretty peaceful in a lot of the book of the Quran. But then it gets pretty rough. Verse 190 says, fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not transgress limits, for Allah loveth not transgressors, and slay them wherever you catch them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. For tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter, but fight them not at the sacred mosque unless they first fight you there. But if they fight you, slay them! Such is the reward of those who suppress faith. But if they cease, Allah is off forgiving, most merciful. And fight them on there until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in Allah. But if they cease, let there be no hostility except to those who practice oppression. So they say, you know, if you practice oppression, slay them. And basically here's the thing, until they just submit and are a slave, kill them. That's what it's saying. Just slay them, slay them, slay them. He says this later, fighting is prescribed for you, and you dislike it. But is it possible that you dislike a thing which is good for you? And that you love a thing which is bad for you? But Allah knoweth, and you know not. So he says, hey, you're supposed to fight! And I know you don't want to, but you're supposed to. Because you're probably not supposed to like it. It's just like, what in the world? It just makes no sense. This is what they say about women. Women, your wives are as a tilth unto you. Now that doesn't even sound like a good word, but what is tilth? Tilth is the tillage of the ground. It's the soil. So, you know, when they get more elaborate in their translations, they say, it's where you sow your seeds, do as you wish. They just call women dirt. I wonder why they treat their women like dirt. It literally says that! Their scriptures say that women are dirt. Do whatever you want to your dirt. This is their clothing. Tell the believing women to lower their gaze from looking at forbidden things and protect their private parts from illegal carnal acts and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent, like palms of hands or one eye. So it literally says, they're not allowed to show any part of their body except for the palm of their hand or one eye so that they can see. That's how they're supposed to dress. And it says they're not allowed to look up. Women are not allowed to look at you in the eyes. You have to have a lower gaze. You're not allowed to look at them. You're only allowed to look up with one eye. The only people that can see you not in a full body suit, called a hijab, are like your brother and your dad and your uncle and just basically the nearest of kin and your husband. That's the only people that are allowed to see you not wearing just this full garment. It even explains it. Veil, gloves, head cover, apron. I mean, they believed in the coronavirus way before we did. Their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms are not to be revealed. I'm just reading what it says. And Surah 33, 59 Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks, veils all over their bodies. Sounds like Adam Fanon would love this doctrine. They will be better that they should be known as free, respectable women. So by covering your whole body, you're a free, respectable woman. And not to be annoyed. It's annoying when women don't dress that way. That's what it literally says. And then it says Allah is ever off forgiving and most merciful. Now you say, why would they do such a thing? Now let me draw this connection for you. And some of you might even understand where I'm going. But men who have to have women covered head to toe like this are perverts. Men that have to create these over the top rules to try and hide women are perverts. They're disgusting, filthy men. Okay. And that's why in their texts they believe in this disgusting, filthy, perverted heaven. They say that when you make it there, you'll have purified spouses. Purified spouses. So you get all these spouses that are purified. How are they purified? Well, this is what it says in Surah 55, verse 56. In them will be maidens, chaste, restraining their glances, whom no man or jinn before them has touched. Now, maiden means a virgin, okay, or chaste. They're not allowed to look up, so they can't look at you in the eyes. And not only that, it says no man or jinn. Jinn is a devil. So it's like the doctrine of the Nephilim. Basically they're just saying these are complete virgins. No one's ever touched them, and you get them. Now some people say you get this for being a martyr. According to their doctrine, like their text, it's just any Muslim. Any good Muslim just gets to have as many of these just virgins in heaven that have never been touched. Some people ask this question, what do women get? There is no answer. They get to be the top, like some of them, some of the ones that are really big in propaganda for this, the women that advocate this, they say they get to be the top of these women. They get to be like the main maiden. And they say this, Allah makes them not jealous on purpose, just so they don't get frustrated with their husband having so many wives. So he takes away jealousy from them. So somehow they're just not jealous of the fact that he has this. It says, in them will be fair companions, good and beautiful, companions restrained as to their glances, and goodly pavilions. Now it's like, why do they have to always look down? I think this is what it is. All of the Muslims are so insecure about how ugly they are that they're afraid if their women look at anybody else they might be enticed by some other guy or something. So they're only allowed to ever look at them or whatever. It says, whom no man or jinn before has touched them declining on green cushions and rich carpets of beauty. Now, I read you the most mild version of this. Many, many, many of the translations go in graphic, graphic detail describing these women. Graphic, perverted, disgusting, filthy, abominable things, just mentioning in their holy text of what these women look like and do. I can't mention it. It's so filthy and disgusting. The Bible says every word of God is pure. And the Bible tells this, in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are the angels of God in heaven. According to the Bible, there is no constant incestual nonsense that's going on up in heaven. But of course, who wants to believe that? Perverts. Perverts want to believe that, and because they're so perverted and so filthy and disgusting, they have to make women cover from head to toe. Because they're just so afraid of their own reprobate heart, all right? My last point, Muhammad is a pervert. Look, it won't take me long to finish this, all right? I just have a few things to say. Go to 2 Peter chapter 2. Muhammad married that older lady who proposed to him, and then when she died, he had 12 other wives. So in total, he had 13 wives. One of his wives, I think it was his third wife, if I remember correctly, her name was Aisha. Now, Aisha, again, this is a major point of contention, okay? But even from some of their own hadiths, okay, which is just writings about his personal life, they claim that Aisha was six years old when she married Muhammad. Now you say, how old was Muhammad? Muhammad was 50 years old when he married a six-year-old. And it was like that, the Sunni guy, I think it was the Sunni guy. The Sunni guy is the one whose daughter that he married. Now it says that in that same hadith that he consummated the marriage when she was nine. How can you believe in the pedophile? Now you know what's so sick about this? I'll literally point this out to Muslims every once in a while, not as the first step, okay? Kind of once I realize they're not going to get it. And they don't even deny it. I had a Muslim tell me, she wasn't nine, she wasn't nine, she was 11. Like, what in the world? I said, that's a pedophile. He says, he says all the prophets were pedophiles. So then I just had to call him a heretic and just leave. I'm just like, that's wicked. Their religion teaches pedophilia, my friend. It's disgusting, it's filthy, it's abominable, and what parent can look at their six-year-old daughter and say, I would marry you off to a 50-year-old who goes in caves and has demonic seizures. The guy's a wicked reprobate. He's the worst reprobate virtually of all of them. Creating one of the worst religions known to man. You know, the Bible says about Ishmael that he'd be a wild man and that everybody would be against him. Oh, I wonder what Islam's like. It's a wild religion where everybody's against them. Everyone's against Islam. And the propaganda machine of the news media is constantly trying to tell you how Islam's peaceful and wonderful and great and their scriptures are wonderful. It's a wicked false religion. Now here's the thing. I love Muslim people. I hate the religion. Most independent fundamental Baptist churches today, they would preach a message somewhat similar and then they would say, let's just bomb them to hell. I don't want to kill them all. I'd rather preach them the gospel. We're supposed to fight a spiritual fight today and you know what? I'm not going to fight a physical fight. I'm not going to go give money to Jews so they can bomb more reprobates. I'm not going to fight the reprobate war or fund the reprobate war, okay, in the Middle East. What I'd rather do is just preach the gospel and you know what? Muslims are probably more likely to get saved than Jews are. So we're going to actually focus on some and there are a lot more people too. 1.8 billion people? 1 in 4 people? Now, I'm going to finish on Muhammad and give you one last thought. 2 Peter chapter 2 verse 1. But there were false prophets also among the people even though there should be false teachers among you who privately shall bring in damnable heresies even denying the Lord that bought them and bring upon themselves swift destruction and many shall follow their pernicious ways by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of and through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not and their damnation slumbereth not. Muhammad fits this to a T. And I saw, there's all these, you know, if you just look up things about Islam like on YouTube, you know what's the most common thing that pops up? A Muslim, a Christian, and a Jew having a conversation. I think it was in Dallas. It's some Catholic pedophile priest that sounds and acts like a faggot and he has a woman rabbi and then he has a woman other preacher who's the moderator and then some Muslim. Okay? And they sit there and agree for like an hour and a half together over and over and talk about how much they have in agreement. And in fact, you look at the comments, virtually every comment is pro-Muslim because the Christian and the Jew just sound like idiots. They're like, every time they open their mouth, it's just like, I think, I believe, maybe the Muslim keeps quoting the Quran. So, I'm thinking like, why can't you quote the Bible? That guy would run away screaming if you start, you know, preaching the Bible at him. Quoting the Bible to these guys. And it's sick today how Christians are tolerating Islam. You don't think they are? They are. You've been watching too much Fox News. Look, most Americans will just readily accept Islam in this country because most of them are liberal idiots, alright? And they don't even have the gospel of Jesus Christ. They don't even know what they're thinking. But there's going to be a wave of peaceful Islam and there's going to be Chrislam and all this nonsense because why? Oh, it's all Abrahamic faith. What was different that I just showed you from the book of Islam mostly that's not different than the Catholics or the Jews anyways? It's always a workspace righteousness. And they say, oh, well you look at God a little bit different than me and that's okay. They literally asked a question to all three of them because I just watched a little bit of this debate. It's horrible. Do we worship the same God? The Christian's like, well, I think that, you know, there's different ways that we can study who God is and there's different sects of Christianity and, you know, they're all sincere and, you know, it doesn't really matter. The Jew's like, yeah, I think that, you know, obviously we all come from the same root and that's what's important. We come from the same root and whether we say this name or that name, we're all worshipping the same God. So the Jew and the Christian are just like, sure. You know, the Muslim at least is just like, well, we worship the God at least truthfully and do it right, you know. He had more courage than the Christian and the Jew to stand there and say, look, I know Christians, they'll say Mormons are saved. It's not a huge leap to go into Islam because it's the same demonic religion. It's the same evil, wicked religion. And you know what Muslims will say all day long? We believe in Jesus. We believe that there's one God. We believe in Jesus. That sounds right. It sounds good. And then you start fine-toothing it, you know. It's not right. It's wicked. That's why it says in verse 14, Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin, beguiling unstable souls, and heart they have exercised with covetous practices, cursed children, which have forsaken the right way and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bozor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness. Muhammad was full of adultery. That's why every woman had to wear a hijab. Beware of the guy that teaches women need to cover their elbows, and cover their arms, and cover their shoulders, and cover their neck, and cover every part of their body. Beware of that guy. Why? Why do women have to do such a thing? What's going on in your heart, buddy? What's going on in your mind? Look, and I'm all for modesty. I'm all for being chaste and being godly. You have to ask why they did that. It's because they're full of adultery, and he has to beguile unstable souls like Aisha. How can you believe in a religion where you have one founder and he's a pedophile? Just think about that for half a second. Okay, he was a pedophile. Alright, well, you know, because this is what they say. Well, I can't believe in the Bible because Noah got drunk. You know, that's just not a moral guy. It was his son that did it to him, first of all, and then second of all, your guy's a pedophile. Your guy's going into the cave worshiping demons and, you know, beguiling unstable souls. And so, look, if I'm talking to a Muslim, this is my last point, okay? What's the point of this sermon? Well, first of all, to educate you. Second of all, to help you understand a few things. If I'm talking to a Muslim and he's defending pedophilia to me, the Bible says a man that is an heretic after the first and second admonition rejects. So, if you're in an argument with a Muslim and they said this, well, you proved to me that Jesus is the son of God in the Bible, but I don't believe it, move on. I believe that all the prophets were pedophiles. Move on. Okay, but what do I do? Like, Pastor Shelley, how do I get them saved? Well, go to John chapter 6, the last part, so I'll help you turn. Romans 10 says, then faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Their scriptures are so bad. Just give them any Bible verse. Jesus wept is beautiful according, I mean, there's no verse of their Quran that even makes sense. So, when you start reading the Bible, you're going to be like, wow, that's not, not only does that make sense, it's powerful. Not only is that a coherent thought, I mean, you just read normal literature that it's pretty good. Like, you know, Shakespeare could be good or, you know, you read certain novels, they could be good. I like a book called Cold Sassy Tree I read in middle school. You know, just man creating literature can sound good, can look good. I read, who's read a novel or a secular book and you thought it was interesting, it was entertaining, it had some value? Yeah, of course. So, it's not like mankind is incapable of writing something that's enjoyable. The Quran isn't even close to enjoyable. You can't even hardly read through it. I'd rather read the dictionary. In a language I don't even read, I understand. It's so bad. There's nothing worse. So, look, all you have to do is just open the word of God. It should be such a bright shining light to the darkness that's in their mind and in their heart. Okay. The Bible says in John chapter 6 verse 43, Jesus therefore answered and said to them, murmur not among yourselves. No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day. It is written in the prophets, and they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard and hath learned of the Father cometh unto me. Not that any man has seen the Father save he which is of God. He hath seen the Father. Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on me hath everlasting life. What a great verse, verse 47. If you believe in Jesus, you have everlasting life, you go to heaven. But notice how you get that. It says in verse 45, every man therefore that hath heard and hath learned of the Father. We have to open our Bibles and preach them the gospel like anybody else. Muslims aren't different from anybody else. You just have to open your Bible and preach them the gospel. What do you do for atheists? Open your Bible and preach them the gospel. What do you do to Mormons, to Christians, to anybody? I mean even Christians who you feel like they're being they feel like they're being patronized by you because you're preaching them something they already know. But at the end of the day it's the gospel that saves. Don't think of a new book. Have a couple verses in your back pocket to prove how Jesus is the son of God and that he is God. But that's not just for the Muslim, that's for everybody. But it's the gospel that saves. And look, their religion teaches that women are dirt. Their religion teaches that you can't even know if you're going to go to heaven. Look, just the fact that Jesus paid for all your sins and it's just by faith that you get to go to heaven is good news. They haven't heard good news like that before. Now obviously it's going to be really hard for them to convert since it's, you know, they could possibly be killed for it. But we need to open our mouths boldly and maybe, who knows, maybe we'll win a Paul to the Lord. Because I think someone coming out of such a strong oppression that makes that strong of a choice can be pretty emboldened to preach the gospel and do great things. Don't get discouraged if you meet a Muslim. Pray for them, love them, and preach them the gospel and get them saved. Let's close in prayer. Thank you Father so much for your word. Thank you for giving us just the timeless truth of your word in our hands that we can read every single day and we can live in peace and that we weren't born in such an oppression and darkness and evil, wicked religion. I pray that you would just give us opportunity to spread light in such darkness and that many Muslims could hear the gospel and could get saved. And that we wouldn't hate them in our heart, that we wouldn't despise them, but we would despise their wicked religion and we would despise the oppression that they're in under the influence of the devil and we would be motivated to preach them the gospel when we meet them. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen. Alright, for the final song we're going to sing song number 12 Blessed Redeemer. Song number 12 in your handbook. Song number 12. Song number 12. Song number 12. Song number 12. Song number 12. Blessed Redeemer. Precious Redeemer. Seen now I see in uncovering stream. Wounded and pleading. For sinners pleading. Lightened and healing. Dying for me. Amen. You're dismissed.
