Polar Opposites

The reaction of Muslims to the controversial cartoons of Muhammad is revealing. John Piper has written a short word about the obvious difference in the work of Christ compared to the work of Muhammad and, therefore, the work of the Christian compared to the work of the Muslim. The Bible calls Christians to die in order that the unbelieving might live. The Qu'ran calls Muslims to die in order that the unbelieving might die. This is why I say they are polar opposites.

I encourage you to read Piper's comments.
