Christian Apologies to Islam

[orthodox1234]

Islam is growing and I feel it necessary that many Christians be aware of the danger that it poses- I am coming from a chat forum that is called Shiachat.com its very very pro Islamic and they hate Christians there- There are few Christians in this chatroom and they defend the faith however we need people w/great apologetic skills to help us out. They misinterpret and make shallow demands, as a brother in the faith I want some of you guys to go and help us out....please

Here's a link to the Islam/Christianity Dialogue- Check it out and see the outrageous claims....

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

No one comes to the Lord except they be drawn. Salvation from beginning to end is a work of God- "not by the will of man, nor of flesh, but of God." (John 3 I think)

All you can do is present the true gospel of the grace of God to them with prayer before and after. It is by grace through faith, and not of works, in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Son of God, who is God for our sins and eternal life. (Eph 2:8-10; 1 Cor 15:1-3)

He who has the Son has eternal life and will not come into condemnation but he who has not the wrath of God abideth on him. Snatch a few from the fire but some of them are children of satan and will remain in that state. The Lake of fire is their future.

Give them the true gospel and leave it at that would be my advice.

Quite right AW.

I have had the chance to share Christ with many muslums, and it is rare for them to have an open mind about the claims of christ.  They do consider Jesus to be a prophet, but do not accept him as the son of God.  Whats interesting is that they are instructed in the Koran to obey ALL the prophets, yet Jesus is one they omit.  Go figure.

I had a long discussion with one muslim through e-mail, and after about the 5th time we spoke, one of his stronger brothers forbad him from speaking with me any longer, claiming that I was confusing him.  I still pray that the seed that was planted in his heart will take root.

AW is correct.  Sow seeds by the handfull.  You probably will not convince any of them to turn from their faith in islam, but if you can plant a seed on fertile ground, someone else may be able to water it down the road and help it take root.  I encourage you also to be careful about arguing.  Don't close their hearts with harshness.   Tell them Gods truth and let him do the wooing.

Grace and Peace!
