Christian_Minister_Cites_Mohammed_Before_Jesus_Christ

In this short clip, we have the Senior Minister of the Cypress Creek (Texas) Christian Community Church (Dr. Wilkerson) giving a prayer to the audience prior to tonight's debate over the proposed "Day Labor Work Site" in the north Houston, Harris County, area. The Minister concludes his prayer by invoking the name of Mohammed. He invokes the name of the Muslim prophet, and he does so prior to invoking the name of Jesus Christ. We would not expect a Muslim imam to invoke the name of Jesus Christ prior to that of Muhammed (nor hold it against him for that matter), so why would a Christian leader, a man of the cloth, invoke the name of Muhammed, at all; much less prior to the name of Jesus Christ?

Mohammed's god doesn't have a son therefore it's not the same God.

[ZooDeaNMusLimz]

If the 3 of this religion is not true.., so which religion are u?

[alee88985]

to pray in the name of anyone execept Jesus Christ is a sin... for the bible says that no man comes to the father but through him(jesus christ)...

[Lainey2986]

Jeez, Ya'll on on some old testament stuff here. I'm sure Jesus would be right with ya'll out there fighting. Matthew 25:35 said something about trying to get your neigbors deported and preventing them from feeding their families, right?

instead of giving in to the problem of illegals invading our Country, why doesn't the "faith-based" coaliation take the men that are illegal, (that they are so concerned about) bring them to their churches and began helping them become legal citizens? Also, open your homes to them and their families. Why not? I have done that with a family I didn't know, but they were Citizens of the USA...thats what Jesus would do!..............flagwaver

If we continue to avoid, deny and compromise on this issue, our sovereignty, our freedom will be adversely affected permanently. The evidence is clear, on this issue the Truth, accountability and responsibility take a back seat to compromise and pandering to special interests at Cy-Creek Christian Community Center. WWJD? Clarity of spirit is good for the soul.

I would like to say thank you to all those folks in Border Watch for having the courage to take this to the streets where these day labors are located. I would like to see more public debates. Would be nice to see 700am or 740am host a debate, get Border Watch and Ted Poe and John Culberson on one side and Sheila Lee Jackson and this coalition and La Raza on the other side to debate this illegal immigration issue.

[exdemocrat]

Pastor Moore you said on tv "people who are in our community we can't kick them down the road and make them someone else problem." I suggest you tell that to the government of Mexico and the countries of Central America.Also why is the location being kept a secret? I expect TRANSPARENCY from the church.I would also like to know who is involved in this coalition? Your Humanitarian enables law breakers, take your Humanitarian to Mexico or offer it to law abiding American citizens who are in need.

So many of you are missing the point. None of these people involved are supporting illegal immigration. They merely recognize the humanitarian needs of those involved and are seeking to do God's work. Period. No one ever said Mohammad is in the Bible or that Christians should pray to him. This was not a religious event but a civic event organized by a multi-faith coalition. Thus the need to recognize those faiths. You do not know any of the people involved. Don't judge lest you be judged.

Mr. Basel, as a protestant Christian the Bible I read has never mentioned Mohammad. I have read it through 3 times and God did not find it necessary to include him..The Church's reason for being is to "preach the gospel" (the Word of God)not to "head-off religious-based violence"...I am also a US Border watch member and I wonder if your congergation is aware of your pastors "humanistic" views of religion.  thank you,....flagwaver
