Nazareth: Qur’an billboard warns Christians not to “exceed the limits in your religion” by believing in Trinity and divinity of Christ

Jan 21, 2014 5:44 pm By Robert Spencer

“Cease! It will be better for you.” The threat is unmistakable. “Nazareth Christians Warned Against ‘Slandering’ Allah,” from Israel Today, January 21 (thanks to Blazing Cat Fur):

As Christians of every stripe in Jesus’ hometown of Nazareth begin to again take a real stand for their faith, local Muslims are warning them not to overstep the boundaries of their traditional place in the Middle East (hint: they must remain dhimmis, or second-class).

A large billboard hanging at a central point in Nazareth features a picture of an Israeli stop sign, along with the English translation of a verse from the Koran cautioning Christians (and Jews) to speak only the “truth” regarding Allah.

The poster (and Koran 4:171) reads:

“O people of the Scripture (Christians)! Do not exceed the limits of your religion. Say nothing but the truth about Allah (The One True God). The Christ Jesus, Son of Mary, was only a Messenger of God and His word conveyed to Mary and a spirit created by Him. So believe in God and His messengers and do not say: ‘Three gods (trinity)’. Cease! It will be better for you. Indeed, Allah is the One and the Only God. His Holiness is far above having a son.”

Evangelical Christians from Nazareth have become a growing and integral part of the overall Messianic body in the land, while traditional Christians (Catholics, Greek Orthodox, etc) have been waking up to their historical and religious connection to the Jews and are joining the Israeli army in ever greater numbers.

    The death threats are unmistakable. Only Islam makes death threats to people of other faiths as part of their ordinary religious practice. “Aslim, taslam” is the traditional invitation to Islam…that is…”Submit to us, you will be spared”…from death and theft.

    Islam is a severely anti-social religion.

      I think it would be more accurate to say Islam is just a group of hateful anti socials. Gee’s these people (and I use the term likely) even hate themselves.

    The Israeli government should do a favor to evangelical Christians who overwhelmingly support Israel and take over the management of Nazareth, Bethlehem, the Mount of Beatitudes, Jesus’ town of Capernaum and other specifically Christian holy sites so that Christians may visit there unmolested by these nasty supremacists.

    Government of Israel, are you listening?

    Good thing us orthodox trinitarian christians don’t believe in three gods, otherwise there would be something to worry about. The fact that the quran can not get this fundamental tenant of christianity correct shows that this supposedly divinely inspired book is as fraudulent as a six dollar bill.

    I think the Israeli government should leave the damned sign up. Instead, publicize it. There is no sense suppressing this kind of hate speech. Instead, let it stand as a warning to all Christians or tourists from any other faith, that these people hate.

    Warn the rest of the world to stay away because these idiots can’t control their hateful urges. When their income dries up, and they start starving for work, they’ll learn tolerance and respect for everyone.

      So wong. The poorer they get, the more desperate and violent they get. Islam isnt just morally bankrupt. Nearly everyone is poor. Only a rare few have enough money to buy a car made of silver. Of course, those few are hoarding so much of The resources. They need their people to be poor so that they believe the lies that isreal is responsible for making their lives miserable. There is no such thing as tolerance and respect outside of Islam.

    Well, Christians hold that as the Word of God, Jesus Christ existed eternally and was with God and was God (cf. John 1). The Holy Spirit is also coeternal with the Father and the Word. We’ve always understood this as three persons in one divine substance. After all, we’ve read Deuteronomy 6, too!

    Yet Islam also believes in an uncreated Qur’an. This sounds to be at least bitheism to us.

    As mortimer and Champ have already indicated, Islam, alone among major faiths, threatens dire consequences in this world by the hands of other human beings (read Muslims here) should one openly question doctrine. This is so pathetic. So defensive. So stupid. So weak. So one-dimensional. So destructive of liberty. So telling. So ugly. So damning.

    Muslims of the world, hang your collective head in shame for this rot, which exists everywhere throughout your religion, whether in the Koran, Hadiths, the Sira, all the theological schools of both Sunni and Shiite alike, etc. One constant about Islam to be sure is threats, threats and more threats in this world should one resist or criticize Islamic doctrine.

    And, as David M has opined, Islam can’t even get the facts straight. For Muslims to assert that the Christian Trinity is indicative of polytheism is just one more error on the part of Muslims, which goes the whole way back to Islam’s highly unattractive reputed founder. Again can be seen that the mistakes of Mohammed color Islam to the present day. It’s a very bad coloring to be sure, replete with ungraciousness, threats aplenty, a dearth of subtlety, death aplenty, a woeful understanding of freedom, an incapacity to build societies from the ground up rather than parasiticsally feeding off other societies’ achievements and also, in effect, a carte blanche pass (exucse the pun) for men to permanently lord over women (even in the afterlife) and always with the threat of bodily harm or death should one dare oppose the “received wisdom.”

    More pathetic an ideology, be it spiritual or secular, would be hard to find. There are, of course, a few worthy candidates, like Nazism and Marxism, which equally are an inveterate enemy of liberty and other good things that all sensible people in this world of ours should cherish. How fitting that Islam can be put in the same catetory for so many reasons with Adolf’s and Karl’s take on existence. Damning in the extreme I would argue.

    Water is a trinity
    Our planet Earth is mostly Water which has three forms, a trinity Droplets of dew evaporate into thin air unseen and condense yet again way up high, falling as snow to cast out dark of night and blanket against the noise of Satan’s lies.
    Water, this essence of life has three forms, a trinity now and forever one the same.

    Islam is a Duality
    built of Duplicity

    The whole point here is that the “Allah” of the Koran is the “Satan” of the Bible.
    That’s why the Koran is a book preaching hate, murder, rape, paedophilia and the social repression of women.
    The Koran is Satan´s masterpiece, designed to spread evil and mayhem through the world.

    I know it is better not to deny Christ!!!! Even if hard things come by staying true to Jesus we MUST do it. Jesus suffered many things, even death for us. We should do no less for Him. Father God, I pray You help all Christians who are being persecuted everywhere i the world.

    I was there last November and saw that on the way to the Church of the Nativity! I wish I had snapped pictures of stuff other than the whiney boo-hoo wall graffiti. Crossing the checkpoint into so -called “Palestinian” territory is like wading through a trash dump, not because of “Israeli oppression” but rather because the people there seem to take pleasure in throwing their garbage wherever they like.

    The concept of three in one can be illustrated by water. Water may appear as vapor, liquid, or ice. All three are water, to argue they are different is to not understand water at all.

    Mark Twain noted this when he went there, hiw rundown and desolate the areas were under Arab muslim control,,
    Also Dennis Prager also noted in his piece on Ethical Monotheism that if Islam would adopt it , it would be a great Faith, But sadly it rejects this for fascistic dominance!

  16. Louise from Canada says

    OK. let us all say the TRUTH: allah is not god, The God of Abraham, Israel and Jacob IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD!

  17. Brenda A says

    Jan 22, 2014 at 7:57 pm

    Speak the truth about allah…okay, remember muslims, you asked for it. He is NOT the living God! He (allah) is just an idol created by Ismael (in the Bible) after he disobeyed God and was banished. He created another god in defiance and that turned into islam. Besides, what true God would tell somebody to fly planes into buildings, use their children as shields and weapons, etc. Besides, there is no “trinity” in real Christianity. There is one living God and Jesus Christ who came in the flesh and died for our sins. This is the most hate comment and screams intolerance. You want us to accept you but you just want to kill us. So tell me who’s filled with hate. BTW, the koran was plagerized from the Bible, idiots.

    God did not have a son, He is the Son/Jesus. Just goes to show how little they understand His message.
