As AFN recently reported, Muslim Imams are not quiet about the fact that they are in America to conquer politically and spiritually.
Sheikh Bilal Philips, a controversial Islamist preacher and founder of the Islamic Online University, recently said in a lecture that "going to the ballot and voting is now an obligatory action."
"It is a jihad that needs to be done, because this is our modern jihad," he continued. "You can elect a person who wants the sharia."
Cities in Minnesota, New Jersey, and New York have allowed the Islamic call to prayer to be broadcast via loudspeakers, sparking controversy over the assertion of religious presence.
Still, some view it as a necessary step for inclusivity, often comparing the practice to Christian church bells.
Pastor Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills recently told American Family Radio Islam is much more than a competing faith in the U.S.
"Islam is not just a religion, and the West fails to realize that," he said. "It is a political system; it is a jurisprudence system."
It aims to take over and replace local, state, and federal governments.
"Those who are coming refuse to assimilate into the culture," Hibbs told Jenna Ellis. "In America, we think that we can have multiculturalism and continue to be a Judeo-Christian culture with a functioning constitutional republic."
But the reality is has to be one or the other.
"We're up against two diametrically opposed ideologies," the pastor summarized. "One is to establish a global caliphate and the subjugation of all non-Muslims, and the other one is the Judeo-Christian message, which is the gospel."
He and Ellis, a legal expert, agreed that this warrants a response from the U.S. government, which should learn from Western Europe's acceptance of Islam.
"Our founders never intended or founded America on the idea that we would be a secular, pluralistic society," the talk host noted.
Even though the First Amendment prohibits Congress from making laws respecting an establishment of religion, she pointed out that Christianity was at the helm of the state, and there were state-sponsored churches up through the early 1800s.
She blamed the Supreme Court for mucking things up by forcing prohibitions on the states.
"What we need to do is go back and reverse those opinions, clarify what the U.S. Constitution actually says, and get back to an understanding of what Congress can and cannot do and what the states can and cannot do constitutionally," Ellis stated.
Most of the work is already done.
"We already have a legal system that does not allow and is incompatible with Sharia laws," she said. "We just need to apply the law as it's already written and understand the U.S. Constitution in context."
Hibbs said the Church also has a prophetic role to play, but believers are not paying attention, and pastors are not preaching the Bible and the exclusivity of the Christian faith.
"Our failure to know the times and the seasons in this area is really going to cost the Church," Hibbs warned.
