Adventist leader being too reverent towards muslim faith and Koran

Adventist leader being too reverent towards the Koran (Qu'ran) - link
- A while later he said that the Christian's problems, and the Muslim's problems could be solved if "We each get back to our books". I told the friend sitting next to me that the Qur'an was from Satan, so why would anyone tell people to get back to a Satanic book??? But there was general agreement, and everyone seemed happy.
- He continued, saying "I'm not Christian, I'm Adventist". He gave the reason for saying this along the lines of: "Muslims ask me if i'm a Christian, but if i say yes, they will immediately pigeonhole me as someone who eats pork, drinks alcohol, is sexually loose, is a blasphemer, and who is a polytheist. So i just tell them
  Unknown macro: {I'm an Adventist}
  
  . They don't know what i'm talking about, so i can explain that i believe in Creation and in the soon return of Jesus. This creates bridges of understanding."
- Jerald Whitehouse continued with a few more statements that i wrote down, such as: "To defend Christianity is to deny my faith with Muslims." "Connect with the 2nd Advent Message." And "You are there to strengthen Muslim's faith." After this last, blatant statement, i quit taking notes, as it was too obvious for anyone to miss anymore - This man is a Mulim convert in the heart, trying to evangelize Seventh-day Adventists!!!
- Then i brought up the point that brought down the house. I said: "because once they understand that Jesus is the Son of God, they will also learn that the book they thot was holy, is actually from Satan". WHEW! Did that ever cause an instant reaction! The IAEA might want to check the radioactivity it gave off!! He got very angry, and asked in a rough voice if i came to teach him, or to learn from him.
  - I answered that i came to tell him the truth, and that he should repent, and tell his Muslim friends the whole truth about Jesus Christ and the Qur'an.
  - He was busy packing his things by now, but he stood up straight, and looked me squarely in the eyes, and said "If you say that here, i will have you thrown out." I replied: "I've read the Qur'an, and i do know that one of the main themes of the book is that Allah has no son." His reply? "Do you know Arabic?" I replied that while i had studied it a bit, i do not understand it." His face brightened, and then he said "How can you know what it says if you can't understand Arabic?" Well, i admit this answer shocked me, as HE had quoted something in English from the Qur'an in HIS talk, and this "only in Arabic can really understand Allah's words argument is exactly what the Qur'an itself says, so i said "It sounds like you are a true Muslim." He went back to packing his books, and one lady who had come up started to ask him something, so i got my backpack and walked out.
- What do i make of it? I believe that Jerald Whitehouse has convinced himself so deeply that the Qur'an is true, that he doesn't care about anything the Bible says. Notice the text again in 1John 2:22 "Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son." His explanation did not even touch the "denieth the Father" part at all. In fact, in his talk, he said he specifically avoids using the term "Father" to refer to God when talking with Muslims so as not to offend them. That is antichrist sir, not me talking, but God talking. Please repent, and uplift Jesus Christ (not Isa!) and the FATHER.
- I walked with 2 attendees out to the main road to the bus stop. One of them said she is interested now in purchasing a Qur'an. The other one said "well...maybe we can use some good things out of the Qur'an to lead Muslims to Jesus. I asked them to consider if Jesus would use a Baal worshipper's book to try and show them the way to Jesus. "Welllllll.... Goodbye".
- May God keep our souls pure and spotless, and may we all have courage to give the straight message to everyone, Muslim included.
- Comments:
  - Did you know that in the Quran, we can find all of our fundamental doctrines execpt the SOP doctrine? The state of the dead, the millennium, the new earth, THE SABBATH, and many more of our doctrines are in the Qur'an. If you are wise as a serpent, you will use their authority to direct them to the truth as it is in Christ.
