This week I was given a book by the former pastor of Coronado Baptist Church, a man named Tom Doyle. I was so impacted by it that tears came into my eyes. I want to share this quote with you from the book’s preface:
“More Muslims are coming to faith in Jesus today than ever before. In fact, we believe more Muslims have become followers of Jesus in the last ten years than in the last fourteen centuries of Islam. Could it be that the real story about Muslims today is not global terrorism? Could it be the real story about Muslims is that Jesus is reaching out to them with His offer of eternal life earned by His death on the cross and resurrection from the dead? I believe Islamic terrorism is Satan’s attempt to keep the gospel message away from Muslims. The enemy thinks that if he can make the rest of us afraid of Muslims or make us hate them, then he can short-circuit Jesus’ church from reaching Muslims. But that isn’t working. Jesus has stepped in and is opening Muslim hearts Himself”…
Further down on the same page… “So prepare to be amazed. Islam has a visitor. Jesus has arrived.”
I’ve only started reading this book, “Dreams and Visions,” but I’ve already been touched. Our God is an awesome God!
