Dialogue Between Christians & Muslims

As a personal mission of mine and in the spirit of "breeding" or generating Trust, I've been reading a book called, "Guidelines for Dialogue Between Christians and Muslims" by Maurice Borrmans, translated from the French by R. Marston Speight.

"Thus by their joint action Christians and Muslims have the opportunity to render a fresh witness to the reality of God Himself (sharing the first five books as one in the same), showing to all that in the midst of the human struggle for fulfillment there is possible an orientation toward the divine mystery. 

We believers "vie with another in good works" by serving young people, children, the handicapped, and the sick and the dying, by denouncing war and all murderous experimentation, because they consider life to be a gift of God and because they believe in the living God who loves life and who desires to see life come to full fruition. 

When they struggle against all forms of discrimination (sexual, racial, cultural, religious or national) and against the selfish appropriation of natural resources by individuals or collectivities so as to guarantee justice and equality of opportunity for everyone, they do so because they regard the riches of the earth as gifts from God and because they believe in a God who is free "to do what He wills" in love for all of mankind and in view of eliciting their free response to Him."  Page 98, Areas of Cooperation

My comment: while the run-on sentences are rampant, the spirit of this intent is clearly communicated.  It doesn't matter if you're Christian, Muslim, Jewish or Buddhist or Hindu -- at least Jews, Muslims and Christians believe in a monotheistic God, and have the exact same first, five books of the Bible and Koran ONE IN THE SAME.  Let us focus on our similarities of faith, not our differences.  Can I get an "amen" you all? 

In December on CBS, they broadcasted on TV an hour-long documentary, "In God's Name."  Jules and Gedean Nuedet are the producers where they interviewed twelve of the religious leaders since 911 over the last four years.  Click on the link IN GOD's NAME to see who they interviewed.  The conclusion at the end:"We have far more in common among the world's religions than have in differences." 

I'm also giving my subscribers a free peak at a new article that I'm about to publish:  "Jesus vs. Law of Attraction {The Secret}:  Reconciling Common Beliefs?" by clicking here. 

Tell me what you think about the article's points, similar to 12/07 CBS TV show, In God's Name.

Finally, if you're looking for resources about learning about the building your  faith, click Here to be taken to CD of the Month Club -- it's a Lighthouse that I recommend.  Back to my original point, I’d love to hear your thoughts about “why we all can’t seem to get along” or dialogue between Christians, Jews and Muslims.  Tell the world and me more at www.breedingsuccessblog.com
