@jobedied perhaps not quickly but in a steady sustainable direction in just 5 years our area has two new Muslim houses of worship. Change will happen and Muslims are being immigrated in large #'s so it's the likely future. Hopefully they will not get as radical as our right wing conservative bible belching neo con element.

@jobedied America is less than 3% Muslim and 70% claiming to be Christian. Not quite sure how you can say it's quickly becoming a "Muslim nation" with a straight face.

@adambomb312 as a matter of fact we are becoming very quickly a Muslim nation

they are building a huge Muslim Church right next to the rebuilt buildings on 911 site.

I disagree with Piper's Calvinist theology, but he is right on about this. . .missionaries are needed especially here and in Europe more than ever. HA..so much for USA boasting of itself being a "Christian" nation? What arrogant self-righteousness.

You say America sends 3x's the amount of missionaries into the world? Where are the facts? There are 4 churches standing almost on every corner of a junction, where are those 3x's the amount missionaries? Or, are you talking about a few of those, who just come to visit existing churches? Or maybe, you are calling "missionaries" those kids that come to other countries for fun? Like Paul Washer says, "They are goofing around, but bringing Christ".

Hey you know america sends $700 million dollars a year for missions and we also spend $700 million dollars a year for GUM and 87% of the money we send money to is to places where the church already is. 1% of that is to places where no church exist. Piper is correct bruh, do a study on missions
