Responding to the Challenge of Islam
Islam claims to be a way of life governing the lives of more than 1.3 billion. Historically, the Church has made meager efforts to present the authentic message of God's grace to Muslims. We can say of Muslims what Paul said of the Jews: "They have a zeal for God, but it is not according to knowledge" (Rom. 10:2). Most Muslims have had little chance to believe, because they have heard and seen so little of the Gospel. Our evangelism must include all Arabs including Muslims. We must be encouraged that more Muslims have come to Christ during the past 4 decades than in all the years since the beginning of Islam around 600 AD. This is an encouraging start, but much more needs to be done. Certainly, Muslims can be reached here without any negative repercussion for either the missionary or the believer.
