Scripture:- John 14:1-17
Topic:- 36 Reasons Why You Must Become Christian From Muslim [2]
Text:- John 8:32
21. Muhammad said the witness of a woman was half the value of the witness of a man; and Muhammad said a women goes to Paradise because she satisfies her husband sexually; The Bible teaches that a husband is to love his wife and be willing to die for her. See Ephesians 5:25.
22. Muhammad called upon his servants to fight; Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world; if My kingdom were of this world, then would My servants fight but now is My kingdom not from here.” See John 18:36.
23. Muhammad ordered death to the Jews (See A.Guillaume, The Life of Muhammad, Oxford University Press [1975], p. 369); Christ ordered that the Gospel be preached “to the Jew first.” See Romans 1:16.
24. The Koran says, “Fight in the cause of Allah.” See Qur’an 2.244; The Bible says, “we wrestle not against flesh and blood” and “the weapons of our warfare are not carnal.” See Ephesians 6:12; 2 Corinthians 10:4.
25. The Koran says, “Fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them.” See Qur’an 9.5; Christ said, “Preach the Gospel to every creature.” See Mark 16:15.
26. The Koran says, “I will inspire terror into the hearts of unbelievers.” See Qur’an 8.12; God inspires His terror into the hearts of believers. See Isaiah 8:13.
27. The Koran is a terrorist manual which condones fighting, conflict, terror, slaughter, and genocide against those who do not accept Islam; The Bible is a Missionary manual to spread the Gospel of peace to all the world. See Romans 10:15.
28. Muhammad’s Mission was to conquer the world for Allah; Christ’s Mission was to conquer sin’s penalty and power by substitutionary atonement. See 2 Corinthians 5:21; 1 Peter 3:18.
29. Muhammad considered Christ a good Prophet; Christ pronounced Muhammad to be a false Prophet. See John 10:10; Matthew 24:11.
30. Muhammad claimed that there was but one God, Allah; Christ claimed that He was God. See John 10:30-31; 8:58-59; 5:18; 14:9.
31. Islam is geocentric, that is, the whole universe is centered on the Kaaba in the Grand Mosque in Mecca in Arabia, and all Muslims pray facing that direction; Jesus Christ is the center of all Christian worship and fellowship, for He is “in the midst” where His saints meet anywhere on earth. See Matthew 18:20; John 4:22-23.
32. Muhammad ’s Tomb: OCCUPIED! Christ’s Tomb: EMPTY!
33. Islam must be received, or you can be killed for rejecting it: The Faith offered by Jesus Christ is for “whosoever will” to receive, and all men are permitted to reject it. See Revelation 22:17; John 3:16.
34. Those who leave Islam are killed in most Islamic nations; Those who leave the true Church of Jesus Christ are allowed to do so with no revenge.
35. Now, is a Moslem submitted to Allah and Islam because he loves Allah? NO! He dare not leave Islam, and he is loyal purely out of fear. The true Bible believer is loyal to Jesus Christ purely out of love.
a. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 19 We love him, because he first loved us. See 1 John 4:18-19.
36. Muhammad invented his Cult to enrich himself:
a. And only the rich Mohammad (1% of Mohammad’s 1 billion population) and those ready to spent all their life’s savings can fulfill the requirements of 5 pillars, especially the Hajj (Pilgrimage to the pagan shrine Kaa’ba in Mecca). The other pillar the poor can’t fulfill is #Zakat (compulsory charity). The other pillar than the rich can be exempt from is #Fasting by feeding the poor.
b. Jesus preached the Good News (Gospel) to all across the social-economic divide and no one is exempt from following His commandments.
Prayer Point:- Oh Lord God, I have decided to know the truth and walk in Your way henceforth by fire, in the name of Jesus Christ.
Have A Glorious Thursday!
