More Muslims Have Converted to Christianity in Last 14 Years than All of 14 Centuries of Islamic History!


Sometimes as Christians, we can get down and defeated. It seems that everywhere, Satan is winning. Fear. Terrorism. ISIS.

But what we see on the news is not the full story. 

Note the following quote from a Christianity Today article on ISIS Undermining Islamic Faith.

"Muslims frightened by the inhumane acts by the ISIS, which the militants claim they are doing in the name of their god Allah, are now questioning their very own faith, and presumably considering to leave it, CBS News reported on Friday.

This is backed by testimonies from missionaries working in the Islamic world who noted that 
more Muslims have converted to Christianity in the last 14 years since the devastating Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in the US. The number of converts in the recent period, they said, is greater than during the entire 14 centuries of Islamic history."



So do not despair! God is at work in the world, and he has already won the victory through Jesus Christ. Could it be God's plan to use the horrors of ISIS to bring Muslims into the fold of Christ? That is the essence of the gospel--God taking the worst that sin has to offer in death and the cross, and creating resurrection and new life from it. Praise God for what he is doing in the Muslim world!


How do you see God at work in the Muslim world?

Thanks, David. Yes, it is a good reminder that God is always at work--even when it looks the darkest. Appreciate you sharing these thoughts!

Thanks for this information.  I like many others don't see God at work in places like the Muslim world because I don't allow for the height, length, breathe and depth of God's ability to do "the impossible".  Faith reminds us that he can do more than we can think or imagine.

That is so true! "God is light. In Him there is no darkness at all."

Sure, David! God is indeed at work.

The way to snuff out darkness is to be Light and spread it all over the world! Thank-you for the great blog James!
