The Church of Sweden’s first lesbian Bishop wants to take crosses and Christian symbols down in a church to make space for Muslims to pray. Here’s the story from Breitbart:  

The Bishop of Stockholm has proposed a church in her diocese remove all signs of the cross and put down markings showing the direction to Mecca for the benefit of Muslim worshippers.

Eva Brunne, who was made the world’s first openly lesbian bishop by the church of Sweden in 2009, and has a young son with her wife and fellow lesbian priest Gunilla Linden, made the suggestion to make those of other faiths more welcome.

The church targeted is the Seamen’s mission church in Stockholm’s eastern dockyards. The Bishop held a meeting there this year and challenged the priest to explain what he’d do if a ship’s crew came into port who weren’t Christian but wanted to pray.

Response: I wonder if the Bishop understands that the very prayers that her ‘tolerant’ Muslim guests would utter include condemnations of Christians and Jews  and all ‘unbelievers’ -all in a church consecrated to the Christian faith?

This is the kind of thing you can expect once a denomination leaves behind the Bible and the faith once delivered to the saints. It has been my experience in the last 30 years to observe that many of the new ministers trained in the mainline seminaries not only question the authority the scriptures but have real reservations about the divinity of Christ though most would never admit it to their parishioners. 

This is why I believe that we may not be that far removed from a time when some of the major liberal ‘Christian’ denominations might engage with Muslim leaders to find some way to combine the two ‘faiths’ together in order to combat Islamic terrorism and Islamophobia.

Allowing Muslim prayers in Christian churches (which actual condemn the Christian faith) is the first step. We have already seen this happening on a number of different occasions. However, we have never seen even one incident where a Christian minister was invited to pray in a mosque.

Next would be the acceptance of the Quran as on par with the Bible. The final step would be the official denial of the divinity of Jesus Christ and persecution of all who continue their exclusive worship of the Lord Jesus Christ. Shades of Book of Revelation and one world religion.  Come quickly Lord Jesus!              *Top
