Someone recently brought to my attention that a religious organization called the Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota (ostensibly a Christian organization) has published and is heavily promoting a small group study titled, "My Neighbor is Muslim." The study guide purports to help Lutherans…

On September 29, 2010, ABC aired a one hour documentary called Islam: Questions and Answers. The goal of the program was to clear up misconceptions of Islam held in the minds of the American public. ABC seems to have struck a nerve with their program. Many pro-Islamic people and groups have written…

There is a divine explosion of dreams and visions entering the human realm in the Middle East amongst Muslims. God is penetrating the intellect and hearts of Muslims and with the blood of Christ. Ravi Zacharias, an Indian-born Canadian-American and apologist has commented on these profound…

On February 24, 2011 a debate was supposed to have taken place at a local university campus: California Polytechnic University, Pomona campus. The debate, between Imam Mustafa Umar and Christian apologist Sam Shamoun, was to be on the topic "Jesus: Prophet or God?" The debate was proposed to the…

Recently I was engaged in a lengthy discussion via email with a Muslim man from the UK. He began the exchange by posting a comment to a video I had uploaded to YouTube. I won’t bore you with the initial conversation, but he was basically challenging me regarding the context of several violent…

What has made the Christian faith so popular? Is it the virgin birth of Jesus, His awe-inspiring miracles, or His philosophical sayings echoing divine truth? All of these put Jesus in an exclusive place in human history, and all are a part of His story. But for the Christian and the non-believer…

I recently attended a debate at a local university between Muslim and Christian representatives. During the Q&A after the debate one Muslim student went to the microphone to ask; "If Jesus really was God, why didn't he just say so! Where does Jesus say, 'I am God, worship me.'" This is one of many…

As I write this, we will celebrate tomorrow the 1,979th anniversary of the resurrection of Jesus Christ after his crucifixion. For atheists, agnostics, and skeptics, the resurrection account cannot possibly be true. They hold this opinion for varied reasons, but probably the two most common are:

Introduction One of the greatest challenges for the Christian faith involves the veracity of the resurrection account. Atheists and skeptics have little problem acknowledging the existence of Jesus, and even the fact he died by crucifixion on a cross. But many doubt the Biblical account of his…

In Matthew 25 Jesus tells the parable of the sheep and the goats. With the sheep on his right side, the Son of Man tells them "Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me…

Islam and Christianity are said to have many beliefs in common. Indeed, these common beliefs often form the basis of Christian-Muslim dialog as Christians build bridges to friendship with Muslims based on these shared beliefs. Both believe that God provides guidance for mankind through the books of…

The Quran seems to suggest - and many Muslims would like to believe - that Christianity and Islam have much in common. Sura 5:82 states, "Thou wilt surely find the most hostile of men to the believes [Muslims] are the Jews and idolaters; and thou wilt surely find the nearest of them in love to the…

The following video is an excerpt from a message John Piper delivered at the One Day Live concert on May 20, 2000. We play this video during the second hour of our first session of "Apologetics to Islam." It is a powerful message for anyone who names Jesus as Lord. Don't waste your life!

When Christmas comes each year, help a Muslim understand who Jesus was: God With Us! From the Bible and the Qur'an:Isaiah 7:14 - Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel.

Was Jesus Crucified on the Cross? What the Qur'an Says Sura 4:157 - They said "We killed Christ Jesus, The son of Mary, The Messenger of Allah." But they killed him not, nor crucified him. But so it was made to appear to them. And those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no certain…

“So, you mean to tell me you left Islam for a dream?,” asked Jamal sarcastically. "Not just because of a dream, but it had something to do with it," I said. Shaking his head in utter disbelief and disgust that a Muslim would abandon Islam for Christianity, Jamal replied, “May Allah have mercy on…

Where does a Muslim find their hope? I ask because Easter is coming in a few days. There was a time while in Christianity, when I celebrated the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. But once I became a Muslim, the resurrection became pagan to me. There is no cross in Islam, so there is no…

A common objection by modern day skeptics is to deny that Christianity was founded upon the teaching of Jesus Christ, but instead is a mere copycat of other more ancient religions. More specifically, these skeptics deny that Christ was crucified, and point to other crucifixion accounts contained in…

Christians who interact with Muslims quite often face this question: Where does Jesus say 'I am God, worship me?' Or a slightly different form: 'Is it right for Christians to worship Jesus, since God alone should be worshipped?'

So, you think you know Jesus? At one time, I thought I knew Jesus, I believed he was the Son of God and even preached this truth, but I did not have a relationship with him. I abandoned Christianity and accepted Islam. In the Islamic faith, I believed in a different Jesus, a prophetic Jesus who is…

Not long ago I was talking with a group of Muslims from Somalia at a coffee shop in Northern Virginia. Along the way the conversation turned to the gospel accounts of Jesus, which provide us the best information on Jesus: who He claimed to be, who the Jews thought he was, what the Jewish leaders…
