Several verses come to mind:This Daily Show clip brings up what I think is a valid question. Do you feel it's alright for Christians to allow non-Christians to observe/practice non-Christian religions in Christian churches? What about vice versa?
Thoughts?
2 Corinthians 6:14-17
14 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?
15 And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever?
16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people."
17 Therefore "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord..."
As far as the Word of God is concerned, Islam teaches lies that have and will damn millions of people to eternal hell. Why on earth would any Christian want to aid in the dissemination of such lies by providing a meeting place for those lies to be preached? Good grief! What a horrible thing for a community of believers to do! What part has a believer with an unbeliever? None at all!
As far as I'm concerned, allowing Muslims to use a Christian church to worship their false god is exactly the sort of thing forbidden by the above passage and ought never to be done. Moreover, to the world looking on it gives a profoundly confusing message. Why would Christians, if they believe what they preach is the truth, allow Muslims to preach something totally different in their own church? The clear implication is doing such a thing is that Muslims preach a truth equal to that of the Christian faith, which the Bible absolutely denies!
1 John 4:3
3 and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.
Muslims flatly deny that Jesus was the Son of God. According to the apostle John's words above, this means they are of the spirit of the Anti-Christ. It stuns me that Christians would be in any way involved in aiding the spreading of this evil spirit in the world. God forbid!
Selah.
