I will never collect and eat any food from the Muslims cos I am a Christian and wisdom is profitable to direct,d ram is sacrificed to their god and that god is different from the God I am serving....my friend who was a born muslim told us that they put all their worries n cares upon d ram saying let it be upon d ram n so I'd you eat such ram with all those nemesis sorry becomes your name n they know it that's why they try hard to ensure they pollute d Christian folks that are ignorant to eat their ram n food...do what fellowship has darkness n light n one cannot serve two master at d same time....they pretend to love you by sharing their miseries to the Christians n turn back to kill them in whatever guise me n my family are for light which is in Christ Jesus and d light shinneth brighter n brighter n d darkness comprehended it not....bible said you should not eat d food of a person who gives you but his heart is not at peace with thee...I am not ignorant of d devil's devices n I will never let anyone or anything cause me to fail JESUS Christ how can someone refuse to believe in Jesus,call me infidel n still come n give me their food sacrificed to their god to eat?God forbid!!!!

I am not sure I can eat food prepared by a moslem. I'm just wired that way. Even food given to us during Christmas was thrown away but now that I'm grown up, If I won't eat I don't collect. I have never had any moslem friend in my whole life. A woman close to my family that follows her mother's religion (Christianity) but sometimes partake in Ramadan (her father is a moslem) gave us Salah food, nobody ate it in my family, chio, even the drinks. My brother was the only one that ate the food for 2 days and drank the malts. But I actually don't think it's wrong ooo. |

Read 1Corinthians 10: 20 - 31 for the answer to that question but first of all, ask Holy Spirit to open your eyes and spiritual life to understand the mysteries of life and also direct and guide you to read and understand the GOD's word. As you obey,may you really be blessed in the name of JESUS CHRIST! Amen!!! |

TheUbermensch:I would reject it because I know of the hatred they and their god bear towards Christians I would reject it because accepting it is tantamount to participating in a spiritual exercise ordained by a god and a prophet I do not worship or believe in I would reject it because the Muslim smiling at me today can and most likely will hurt me greatly if there is a choice to be made between me and his religion Lastly, I would reject it because their fast is not done secretly but openly (Read Matthew 6: 16 - 18) |

Afamed: Nawao na fight? you're trying to correct me on something I've been hearing since when... try to comment on Islam threads and see what stares at you. I watch Islamic programs on TV and at a time I was a fan of a particular comedy drama on an Islamic TV. Before every program, they make that declaration. so my brother you cannot confuse me. Okay let's even use your sentence and replace Allah with God.... There is no God/god except God. does it make sense? Now assuming Sango worshippers make that declaration, here is how it will go... There is no God/god except Sango. Now compare. On the side, it's good that you are modifying Islamic stuff to go by modern and moderate standards. you're better than those ones who will say that the Quran covers all and whatever isn't covered is filth. Those that say the religion is unquestionable and shouldn't be modified like the Christians do. my only problem with you now is that you are making it seem as if your modification has been there all along ,whereas it wasn't and still isn't.

1 Corinthians 10:27-28 New International Version (NIV) 27 If an unbeliever invites you to a meal and you want to go, eat whatever is put before you without raising questions of conscience. 28 But if someone says to you, “This has been offered in sacrifice,” then do not eat it, both for the sake of the one who told you and for the sake of conscience. |

According to the bible, it is not the food a man eats that defiles a man but what comes out of that man. .so for me it is not bad as long as you pray over it before eating. Remember the earth is the Lords' and its fullness thereof. |

INDUSTRIALFAN: How do you know it was not under a condition? Did you prepare the food with him/her? Do you know of the muslims intentions by that act? Have you ever heard of "Sarra"? It's done by Yoruba Muslims (I don't know if it is called another thing in mainstream Islam) Basically what happens in Sarra is that a Muslim with a problem (Barrenness, impotence, poverty, etc) buys Some food items, chants certain Quranic passages on the food, then prepares the food and shares it to NON-MUSLIMS living within his vicinity. At least one of the people who eat such food will either die or have the same problems transferred to him/her while the problems leave the muslim. Some of the rich ones throw really big celebration parties in order to share this food usually to children and young adults (coz they still have vigour) You have to stay woke bro. It's not just any food you eat oo. Things are happening all around |

Jackossky:If someone employs me, muslim or not, it simply means that he/she needs me to render certain services and he/she pays me in return. The Muslim is not dashing me the money. He or she is exchanging money for my services I'll also like to see that Muslim that will give a Christian money without any strings attached (eg Family Relative, Loan, Cooperative money, buying and selling, etc) A Muslim that commissions a road can only do so because of (political) power vested upon the person by the government eg a public office holder, etc. A muslim cannot commission a road simply because he/she is a muslim I know you are educated, I wonder why you'll bring up instances as ridiculous as those in order to discredit my earlier stance |

Please read; Concerning Food Sacrificed to Idols 1 Corinthians 8:1-13 8 Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that “We all possess knowledge.” But knowledge puffs up while love builds up. 2 Those who think they know something do not yet know as they ought to know. 3 But whoever loves God is known by God.[a] 4 So then, about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that “An idol is nothing at all in the world” and that “There is no God but one.” 5 For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”), 6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live. 7 But not everyone possesses this knowledge. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat sacrificial food they think of it as having been sacrificed to a god, and since their conscience is weak, it is defiled. 8 But food does not bring us near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do. 9 Be careful, however, that the exercise of your rights does not become a stumbling block to the weak. 10 For if someone with a weak conscience sees you, with all your knowledge, eating in an idol’s temple, won’t that person be emboldened to eat what is sacrificed to idols? 11 So this weak brother or sister, for whom Christ died, is destroyed by your knowledge. 12 When you sin against them in this way and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. 13 Therefore, if what I eat causes my brother or sister to fall into sin, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause them to fall. |

Pentools:Based on that Bible verses that says if anyone invites you for dinner. Inviting strangers or people for dinner in ones home is actually not too entrenched in our culture. But it’s a good thing. It’s a common practice in the West. A family can just take interest in you and love you and wish you could be part of their family by inviting you to dinner in their home or at a choice restaurant. Remember this is not a celebration perse. But inviting you for a dinner for a particular celebration has told you what the dinner is meant for. So this kind of dinner is different from the one mentioned in that book of Corinthian. A dinner in celebration of Ramadan must be abstained from. That’s a representation of food for idol worship. That’s what it meant in verse 28. And if I think I’m so strong in faith that I don’t believe idol exists and that I can bless the food and eat without hurting my conscience, what about weak believers looking at you, they will abuse the Liberty you have and they will do worst things because they have seen brother so and so do it. Therefore they will stumble just because what they see you do. Making you at fault with God. So Jesus say it better a millstone is tied around the neck of such person, you know the rest. So why not completely refrain from it since it will hurt the conscience of other Christians seeing you do it. 1 Like |

Brightgem:They claim to be Christians(followers of Christ) but they never followed him in his way at all. Jesus(ASW) performed ablution, prayed by bowing down his head(sujood) and he fasted. Most of them Christians don't even fast, they claim it is not mandatory....levity!. Did Jesus(ASW) clap and dance whenever he wanted to worship his God( or they may say he is God now). 1 Like |
