We'll be able to serve each other, to help each other.

We'll be able to produce that which is good.

So I can promise you the last thing that heaven will be is boring.

It'll be tremendously exciting and it will be for eternity.

Muslims get a lot of things wrong about Christianity.

They get the Trinity wrong.

Jesus insisted that there was one God.

He repeated the Shema of Israel.

Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one.

But then he went ahead and talked about his Father being God.

He claimed to be God himself, and he talked about the Holy Spirit as being God.

So that's a fundamental error.

Secondly, Muslims have profound respect for Jesus.

In fact, my Muslim friends believe more about Jesus than a typical American does.

My Muslim friends believe that Jesus was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, ascended to heaven, and is coming back a second time.

Whoa!

How many Americans believe all of that?

Precious few.

So they believe a tremendous amount about Jesus, but they fail to acknowledge his deity.

They fail to acknowledge his death on a cross because they are convinced God would never allow such a great prophet like Jesus to be crucified on a cross.
