Why Muslims are Coming to Christ!

By: Steve Hill

1/ They believe in truth and passionately seek it. God honors them with visions, dreams and angelic appearances speaking of Jesus (see www.morethandreams.tv, this dvd presents testimonies in their original languages with subtitles available in various languages! Get one for your Muslim friends!). Most in the West do not believe in truth and are only seeking personal prosperity, personal peace and personal pleasure. God honors their faith as well. God can knock a persecutor off his donkey more easily than he can knock a remote control out of my hand!

2/ They believe in right and wrong and have an active conscience. They are under laws they cannot keep. That Jesus would forgive and give power to live a righteous life is good news to them! Most in the West believe only in personal autonomy. They are their own gods in their own little world with their conscience deadened by sin. That there is a God to serve who created us to be morally pure like Him is not good news to autonomous man!

Real seekers of Truth do not find this version of Jesus worth giving their lives for.

5/ They see healing, signs and wonders done in Jesus name. One Muslim leader is quoted by Rolland & Heidi Baker (www.irismin.org) as saying, "We are losing to the Christians in Africa. They are raising the dead!" And from Africa again from www.onfireministries.com, "I am writing to you from Mali. We have had a marvellous week here. We have “emptied
