(ABC NEWS): The head of the Southern Baptist Convention is asking members to
“pray and fast that God will miraculously reveal himself through Jesus
Christ to Muslims” at the end of Ramadan, Islam’s holy month. “Just as they
can pray and fast, we want to pray and fast that they will find the true way
to heaven, and this is through Jesus Christ,” the Rev. James Merritt, leader
of the nation’s second-largest Christian denomination, said in a statement
Monday… Merritt said Baptists should pray for Muslim conversions on Dec.
16, at the end of Ramadan. http://abcnews.go.com/sections/us/DailyNews/merritt011127.html
Insha Allah, the truth will prevail!
Rabbeshrah lee sadree; wa yassirlee amree; yafqahoo qaulee.
i heard about this on CNN.
I've seen the leader of the Souther Baptist Church on Larry King several times and he is one hatefilled man. Until now, i'd only heard and watched him 'pray' for the Jewish people.
im sure no one, least of all Muslims, take such absurd comments seriously. I agree with CAIR's response.."Its a free country."
They can pray all they want and we'll see if God listens.
However, i think that before praying for Muslims, the Southern Baptists might want to pray for the hundreds of Christians who've been converting to Islam since Sept 11
"Nothing Important Happened Today"
yes
I pray for all humanity regardless of religion .. that they find guidance and the true path.
