Any preacher preaching that allah and God are the same needs to be stopped from doing so…the path to Hell is wide…they are making is a freeway!
Many of you are aware that the Internet and blogosphere are awash with information concerning “Rick Warren builds bridge to Muslims,” a story that ran on Thursday, February 23, in the Orange County Register. The story was republished or reported on widely in both the Christian and secular press.
Reporter Jim Hinch stated that “Warren has embarked on an effort to heal divisions between evangelical Christians and Muslims by partnering with Southern California mosques and proposing a set of theological principles that includes acknowledging that Christians and Muslims worship the same God.” The guidelines are called “King’s Way.”
The article reported that “Abraham Meulenberg, a Saddleback pastor in charge of interfaith outreach, and Jihad Turk, director of religious affairs at a mosque in Los Angeles, introduced King’s Way as ‘a path to end the 1,400 years of misunderstanding between Muslims and Christians.”

“The men presented a document they co-authored outlining points of agreement between Islam and Christianity. The document affirms that Christians and Muslims believe in ‘one God’ and share two central commandments: ‘love of God’ and ‘love of neighbor.’ The document also commits both faiths to three goals: Making friends with one another, building peace and working on shared social service projects. The document quotes side-by-side verses from the Bible and the Koran to illustrate its claims.”
The Register story also quotes the Muslim leader, Turk, as saying “We agreed we wouldn’t try to evangelize each other…”
The “King’s Way” plan appears to be an outgrowth of a Saddleback small group whose activities are mentioned as follows:
*4 weeks Small Group Study in your group
*2 events where you will meet Muslim neighbors (we organize a service project with a meal together and a visit to a mosque)
As wonderful and conciliatory as the February 23 article may sound to some, the basis of it is eerily reminiscent of another such idea that Dr. Warren was and is still a part of – the Yale University Center for Faith and Culture’s 2007 paper “A Christian Response to A Common Word Between Us and You,” which is based on the premise that we all worship the same God.
