3 Dedication This book is dedicated to all those who proclaim God’s sweet Salvation through his Son Jesus Christ and suffer bitter persecution for his name. Revelation 10:10-11 And I took the little book out of the angel's hand and ate it up. And it was sweet as honey in my mouth, and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was made bitter. And he said to me, You must prophesy again before many peoples and nations and tongues and kings. 4 Forward God has begun to reveal that Islam will play the central role in the events of the last days. This book is meant to give you a basic understanding of those events which will play out. God told the prophet Daniel that the true understanding of his prophecy, would remain sealed until the time of the end. Daniel 12:9-10 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel; for the words are shut up and sealed till the time of the end. Many shall purify themselves, and make themselves white, and be refined; but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand; but they that are wise shall understand. As God unseals the understanding of the Last Days, we as a Church must not be ignorant of the Devil’s plans. We must expose them to the light of God’s Word. This new understanding of end time events is sweeping across Churches through many mighty men of God, like Joel Richardson, whom God has anointed to bring this understanding to the Churches. The astounding similarities between Islamic end time doctrine and Christian end time prophecy is too astonishing. Islam even has its own version of the Evil Beast from the Book of Revelation, whom Islam describes as “THE GOOD GUY” who will mark the foreheads of the followers of Islam in the Last Days. In these very days, God is unsealing his revelations, so that his Church will not be without knowledge in the coming days of Tribulation. 5 Islam vs. Christianity In this chapter we’ll be addressing the following issues: Christianity vs. Islam. The contrast between Christianity to Islam and the Bible to the Quran. We’ll be asking and answering such questions as: 1) “Do Christians and Muslims worship the same god?” 2) “Is Islam a religion of peace or …?” 3) “How do the Bible and the Quran differ?” 4) “How do Jesus and Mohammed differ?” 5) “What are the theological differences between Christianity and Islam and are they compatible? Islam is a fast growing religion and their influence on the world scene has increased dramatically in the 21st century. In the late 1970’s the Western world scratched its head when Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran took the American Embassy hostage and held them for 444 days. Very little was known about Islam and no one truly understood his motives— why was he and his country so angry with America? Again we were shocked in 1993 when the World Trade Center was bombed by Islamic extremists and again we didn’t understand who these people were or why they were doing this. The events of 9/11/2001 finally caused America and the rest of the world to put Islam on the front burner and start asking questions about what it represented. Since that time Islam is in the news most every day and all manner of conflicting information has come out about what it stands for theologically speaking. Some claim it’s a religion of peace 7 The Islamic Antichrist and others of war. Some say it’s not much different than Christianity and others say they’re diametrically opposed. Today we find out because the Lord is a God of Knowledge and not ignorance (2 Samuel 2:3) because if we don’t, we may perish due to our lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6). There are different degrees of Islam just as there are different degrees of Christianity as follows: Fundamentalist, Moderate & Liberal. We’ll start with Christianity first then Islam. FUNDAMENTALIST & EVANGELICAL Christians are those who believe that Jesus is the only way to Salvation and that the Bible is the inerrant, inspired word of God containing His will, goals, and truths. They interpret the Bible literally whenever possible and symbolically when necessary. Their desire is to exalt the will, goal and truth of God above and beyond all else including themselves and attempt to live their lives this way. FUNDAMENTALIST Muslims are those who believe that Islam is the only way to salvation and they exalt Mohammed as Allah’s last and best prophet. They believe the Quran is the inspired, inerrant word of Allah containing his will, goals, and truths. They interpret the Quran literally whenever possible and symbolically when necessary. Their desire is to exalt the will, goal and truth of Allah above and beyond all else including themselves and attempt to live their lives this way. LIBERAL Christians are those who believe that Jesus is ONE way to Salvation but that there are many ways. Some even believe that everyone is going to Heaven no matter what. They see the Bible as being a decent book that has some wisdom but NOT as the inerrant, inspired word of God. They feel Scripture is mostly symbolic, open to individual interpretation, and that one person’s interpretation is no better than another. LIBERAL Muslims are much the same way as far their own religion and the Quran. MODERATE Christians and Muslims can be said to fall anywhere between the definitions provided here. 8
