Islam

A recent attack of September 11 by Islam, the fastest growing religion in the i/pworld, has caused people to be alarmed or even threatened by the Islamic religion. What would cause people to terrorize other countries in the name of religion? To understand more about the Islamic religion, we will study the role they play in the world today, what they actually teach, and what Christians can do to witness to those who become more interested in the Islamic religion.

Since 9/11 terrorist attack on World Trading Centers, and Pentagon, The eyes of the world are focused on the role of Islamic nations and their religion which plays in the world today. In the Islamic religion, the great commission is a goal to bring the whole world under Islamic control. In fact, the world “Islam” means to “surrender” and a Moslem is one who submits. The Arabic work for peace is “salem”. Islam is the active form of a salem. Muslem see themselves as a “peace making force” using argument, intrigue, commerce, threats, terrorism, warfare, and every other means possible to secure Islam as the only religion world wiwe.Therefore Islam’s primary aim is not spiritual but political and militant in nature. Although “crusade” is not comman


Though Moslem do not have personal relationship with God through His world which true believers in Christ have, yet their worship of Alla is mystic and emotional. For Muslim, the presence of Alla can be experienced through the sound of Arabic Quran, since only the original Arabic is used in prayer.

Each claims the Bible and Quran as the divine authority, while Christianity believe the Bible was written by human authors inspired by the Holy Spirit, Moslems believe Quran as the eternal world of Allah himself recited by Mohammed.

The history of Islam and Christianity can be traced back to Abraham whom both claim to their father of faith. Abraham has two sons: Ishmael “ the son of flesh” and Isaac “the son of the promise”. The Hebrew trace their lineage to Abraham through Isacc, his only son by Sarah, the Quran traces Arab geneology and Muhammad’s prophethood back Ishamael, a son Abraham had by Heger. Out of Isaac came Esau and Jacob who were twins and wrestled with each other in their mother’s womb. Their struggle in their mother’s womb may very well symbolize the present day conflict between the two religions today.

To understand Islam, we will further discuss what Islamic religion teaches: its historic background, similarities and differences between Christian religion and Islam, and lastly the pillars of Islam.

Moslems have no concept of condescending love of God as demonstrated in Christ. Their God is one of distant creator and one of the judgements. By denying of original sin, they have to redeem themselves by sincere repentance and submission to the will of Allah. The
