Yeah! Muslim brothers in front of your door
Hi all,
What would you do if there were standing 4 muslim brothers in front of your house door and asking you to open the door and to go with them to the mosque? :p
This happened a couple of times with me and my father just told them that he doesn't have time for them.
Should you tell them "I'm a Christian, so you've got nothing to find here" (and risking that they will kill you XD) or preaching to them the Gospel or just sending them away so they won't bother you?
Just curious how you would handle.

Best. Answer. Ever. LOL
My friend named Fadi lives in Egypt, and there is this one Muslim elder who thought that he was a Muslim. So after a year or so, the elder says to Fadi, "Fadi, how come I never see you in the mosque?" Fadi goes, "How come I never see you in church?" I though that was the greatest answer.
On a serious note, if you live in the west, don't worry to much about being killed. Yes, there is no denying that islam is a religion of hate, but not everyone wants to kill Christians. Tell them honestly that you are a Christian, and that you would rather not see them at you door again. Be firm, but respectful.
Once, a muslim came to me, and I had a debate with him. He, whenever he mentions the name of a "prophet", says "Peace be upon him." So I decided that whenever I spoke of Jesus (whom they believe is a prophet, and whom I know is the God), I would say, "Jesus-His peace be upon me." Needless to say, the man was surprised and walked off thinking me to be worse than an infidel.

Hahaha, well done!
I wouldn't discuss religion with them because I (warning: extreme exaggeration lol) am not suicidal.
Unless you have given up your life and dedicated your time to preach..i wouldn't go down that road.
