The Way of Martyrdom in Our Times

"The Church today must prepare her children and those who love Christ and His salvation for martyrdom, to become martyrs for Christ... The great Elders during the time of the Turkish occupation were “coaches” of the martyrs. This is what the great Elders are doing also today."

— Metropolitan Hierotheos of Nafpaktos

Now They Reveal Who They Really Are

"Yes, there were times when Muslims tried to live in peace with their neighbors, they even acknowledged that we Christians are people, too. But for many, those times have passed, and now they reveal who they really are."

~ A Contemporary Orthodox Christian Bishop (2014)

Not from the Good God

"It is true that Muhammad started from the east and came to the west, as the sun travels from east to west. Nevertheless he came with war, knives, pillaging, forced enslavement, murders, and acts that are not from the good God but instigated by the chief manslayer, the devil."

~ St. Gregory Palamas (14th c.)

The Heresy of Islam

"There is also the superstition of the Ishmaelites which to this day prevails and keeps people in error, being a forerunner of the Antichrist...

"From that time to the present a false prophet named Mohammed has appeared in their midst. This man devised his own heresy. Then, having insinuated himself into the good graces of the people by a show of seeming piety, he gave out that a certain book had been sent down to him from heaven. He had set down some ridiculous compositions in this book of his and he gave it to them as an object of veneration."

~ St. John of Damascus (8th c.)
