God our Heavenly Father is not seen the same by everyone...

Religion has standards. That is why liberals have such a tough time with it. It declares there is right and wrong, even if a person does not like the standards, and we are not free to alter those standards simply because they are difficult or inconvenient. Religion also has doctrine, and that, too, is not subject to debate. Of course there are those who want to change the doctrine because it is difficult or uncomfortable. Perhaps a social club would be the place for someone who cannot abide the theology and doctrine of religion.

Larycia Hawkins, a political science teacher at Wheaton College, a private evangelical Christian college, was put on administrative leave after she declared that Muslims and Christians worship the same God.
The school had indicated plans to terminate her employment, but is reconsidering that decision. She wants to bend Christianity to her politically correct view that we are all the same, Kumbaya.
She must be very confused about what Christianity means and what Islam stands for.


  =====================================

**
John 2:15, "And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables." 

When Jesus brought the message of "love your enemies" to the world and demonstrated it in such a way; that some people have forgotten instances like this when Jesus showed anger.

Anger can also be a godly emotion.

Ephesians 4:26, tells us to "be angry and sin not".
This means there is a righteous type of anger which is not sin.
This is why we are told to hate evil

(Ps. 45:7;  
 You love righteousness and hate wickedness;
Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With the oil of gladness more than Your companions

Pro. 8:13;
 The fear of the Lord is to hate evil;
Pride and arrogance and the evil way
And the perverse mouth I hate.

 Rom. 12:9  to behave like a Christian
⁹ Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good.

Ephesians 4:26,
goes on to say, "Let not the sun go down upon your wrath".

That doesn't mean that it's alright to be angry during daylight as long as we repent by nightfall.
Rather, it is speaking of this righteous type of anger. We are never to let it rest. Don't ever put it to bed, but keep yourself stirred up against the things of the devil.  Never accept Evil nor use it as a mediation item nor compromise you values.   The future will only show and support the Full Truth - all lies and falsehoods will be come burned upon the dust bin of time    Such is false religion and all else that does not accept the True Gospel of the Lord Christ Jesus!  
 Amen - Period.

The key to distinguishing between a righteous anger and a carnal anger is to discern our motives and the object of our anger.

Godly anger is directed at the devil {evil} with no consideration of self.

 If we are angry with people, it's carnal 

(Eph. 6:12)  
¹² For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.


And if our motivation is self-serving, then it's wrong, wrong, wrong.

Now a Political Science Teacher Equates Islam and Christianity?

Franklin Graham, son of Evangelist Billy Graham, has weighed in and forcefully recommended that the school move forward with the dismissal of Hawkins, indicating that her misunderstanding of the clear differences between Christianity and Islam are “no minor issue.” But many today will make the mistake of wanting to “get along” with everyone and will deny the serious distinction between the two belief systems.

The fundamental issue for Graham is the theological question of the nature of God and therefore the mission of the college.
“Islam denies that God has a Son,” Graham wrote. “They deny that Jesus is God. They do not believe in a Triune God–the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. I can tell you–Islam and Christianity clearly do not worship the same God.”

The Wheaton College website, which identifies the school as “explicitly Christian,” includes a statement of faith that unequivocally lays out its Christian beliefs.

“WE BELIEVE in one sovereign God, eternally existing in three persons: the everlasting Father, His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, and the Holy Spirit, the giver of life; and we believe that God created the Heavens and the earth out of nothing by His spoken word, and for His own glory,” it reads.

In her defense, Hawkins wrote: “I stand in religious solidarity with Muslims because they, like me, a Christian, are people of the book,” though it is unclear which “book” she was referring to, since the portrayal of God in the Christian Bible differs on a number of essential points from that offered in the Qur’an.

Being people of a book could just as well apply to Maoists following the “little red book.”

While Christians, Jews, and Muslims all claim to worship

“the God of Abraham,” the understanding that each has of God is not theologically identical. While all monotheists intend to worship the one God, their beliefs concerning who God is vary considerably–and sometimes in essential points, as Graham pointed out.

More to the point, a cursory review of Islamic theology would tell Hawkins that Islam absolutely rejects the idea that Christianity worships the same God, and there are Islamic fundamentalist groups murdering Christians today, or demanding that they convert in order to avoid a death sentence.

No doubt Ms. Hawkins wishes that she could wave a magic wand and make the theological differences disappear so that we could all just get along. That is not her prerogative, nor is it that of Wheaton College. Declaring yourself a Christian suggests you should stand for something, and those precepts should not bend with the winds of political correctness or societal evolution if they are truly from God.
