As Jesusonians have begun making a case for their leader; we cannot allow the sordid life
style of Muhammad to trump the exemplarary life of Jesus. We cannot allow the phony
messages of Muhammad to overshadow the real truths presented by Jesus, so isn’t it about
time for everyone to jump on the band wagon and present the real Jesus to the world? Since
there is so little resemblance of our Christian God to the Arab God Allah, isn’t it time we
made this plain to the rest of the world? The situation would not be critical if Islam was not
spreading faster that Christianity and if their religion didn’t appeal primarily to cultures with
little to live for – many only living for the afterlife as Bin Laden so aptly pointed out in the
mistaken belief that since we don’t have willing martyrs to blow themselves up along with
innocent people, we are weak minded and consequently can never win the ensuing religious
war. And, of course, their numbers are astounding with an estimated one seventh of the
world’s population
One has only to ask himself, am I not better off from having read the Urantia book? Could I
possibly receive anything comparable to these messages by becoming a Muslim? And which
is going to enhance my life in a positive vein, Islam or the Christian values obtained from the
Urantia book – the true teachings of Jesus.
I don’t care to neglect our topic (a case for Jesus) by addressing just the Islamic problem.
Our case for Christian values and religions have to soon be put to the microscope allowing
for a thorough examination of each religion that professes to believe in the teachings of
Jesus as presented in the Urantia revelation. The hubris of Catholicism is currently being
challenged but little change in the structure of the religion is evident. The Popes recent visit
only seemed to appeal to steadfast Catholics already well into the indoctrination. The Urantia
book tells us that many people prefer to have a priestly hierarchy with a direct pipeline to
God, even if that ecclesiastical authority is entirely human and deeply institutionalized.
While all religions attempt to contribute something spiritual to the planet, it’s time we began
to examine what is real and what is unreal. It’s time to present the Urantia book. People that
refuse to subscribe to a Satan cult readily subscribe to a snake handling cult, they might
believe in the holy rollers belief of talking in tongues, or a religion based on the antiquated
beliefs of a hierarchy in another country founded in part by someone who never came in
contact with Jesus, and again someone who passed on his own religious code of morals and
dared to call it Jesus’ way of life (Jim Jones, etc.). The case for Christianity is made through
the real life and teachings of Jesus as presented in the fourth part of the Urantia book. Let’s
allow the book to make our case. Introduce it to your friends.
