What do people outside of the cosy world of Methodism make of us?
I recently found this interesting insight on this apparently Hamas supporting website (it isn't all it seems once you follow some of the navigation).
Though Ezekiel 38 talks about troops and armies with its horses and uniformed riders …and every soldier carries a shield and is armed with a sword , (Ezekiel 38 :5 )the Evangelists of today’s Methodism such as Lindsay , Jerry Fallwell . Jimmy Swagart and Pat Robertson , affected with Zionist propaganda in America call for an atomic Armageddon on the land of Palestine , while waiting for their Jewish Christ Who has not arrived yet...
Now as far as I know none of the evangelists mentioned are Methodists but somehow "methodism" has got into the author's head. I wonder why? And does this explain the occasionally cool reception I met in parts of the Middle East when I was out there hoping to help establish peace?

It may be that they are using 'methodism' in its original sense before it became a denominational label. It may be that they are confused. It may be that it is just Islamic propaganda designed to mislead and confuse the gullible.
Our concern should be that this stuff is leading many to a Christless eternity.
