THE CHALLENGE
- There are over 1,300 million Muslims in the world today.
- Muslims are in the majority in more than 40 countries of the world.
- And significant numbers of Muslims in the West, including UK.
- Adoption of strict Shariah law in several states!
- Islamic fundamentalism (or Islamism) is increasing rapidly in many countries.
- And the persecution of Christians is similarly increasing (Numerically more Christian martyrs in 20th Century than in all previous 19 put together).
And Yet:
- There is increasing disillusionment amongst many Muslims and a willingness to question their faith.
- & God is speaking to Muslims at the very heart of the Muslim world and calling them to Himself.
How do I as a Christian respond?
- I can ignore the situation.
- I can turn away from making any stand.
- I can pray, believing that God will direct my prayers in His paths.
