    What do you suggest we should do about it?

    Have you ever shared the Gospel with a complete stranger?

    This is a thread about evangelism. The complete stranger could be an atheist, or an agnostic, or a Muslim, or a Buddhist, or … anyone who isn’t a follower of Jesus. It hasn’t drawn many reactions. It hasn’t drawn many comments. It hasn’t drawn many views. Who is interested in evangelism?

    Historian shares how Islam really began

    “Summarizing the Heart Barriers Suppose the three heart barriers of Fear, Anger, and Hopelessness are not addressed. In that case, no amount of training about reaching Muslims with the gospel will be effective. The question is, are you ready to let God change your heart? Are you prepared to love...

    Historian shares how Islam really began

    I‘m going back to David Paul one more time, to draw out the third heart barrier. ”Heart Barrier #3 - Hopelessness. Many Christians do not believe Muslims can come to Christ, and therefore, they do not think it is worth it to minister among them. Perhaps my favorite story about this issue is a...

    Right on. That’s the point. The Christian response should have been positive, not negative. That’s a heart problem. That’s an outstanding comment. You put your finger on the problem.

    Does this convey the idea that the Christian who posted it and the Christians who liked it love Muslims? No. Where have we seen something like it before? Nazi Germany. In regard to Jews.

    Historian shares how Islam really began

    Most people in the USA wouldn’t have to look very hard to find Muslims. I live in a rural area. It’s less than 20 miles from where I live to the nearest mosque. And a new mosque is under construction within a few miles of it. Some time ago I started a thread which asked the question, “Should a...

    Historian shares how Islam really began

    I’m not hunting likes but I‘ve noticed that there was no reaction, nor was there any comment, about the “I love Muslims” post. I‘ve also noticed two other things. 1. Discussion about evangelizing Muslims in this thread has become me, talking to the wind. (A little better than talking to...

    “Heart Barrier #2 - Anger. Many Christians are angry with Muslims, and therefore, they do not want to share the gospel with them. For some, anger is not the right word. Instead, bitterness or animosity would be more appropriate. What I mean is that many Christians see Muslims as other than...

    Historian shares how Islam really began

    Are we sure we really want to evangelize Muslims? It needs to be done. It has to be done. It is being done. It will be done. “Send me? Well, send someone. It’s interesting and all. But I’ve already got a lot going on, and someone else is already taking care of that, aren’t they?” Who here is...

    Historian shares how Islam really began

    “The first three barriers (Fear, Anger, and Hopelessness) are heart issues. The last two barriers (language / culture and lack of ministry tools) are what training can provide. Heart Barrier #1 - Fear Many Christians are afraid of Muslims, and therefore, they will not go to them to share the...
