Wake Up to Islamic Fundamentalism

The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. (James 5:16)

There is much at play in the World. Conflict appears at the forefront. Most military engagements today involve Islamic Fundamentalists. If the Muslims' were at peace with their own, let alone Israel and the Western World, battles in Iraq would not be on-going. The in-roads in Pakistan by Osama Bin Laden's followers should be of concern to everyone. Growth in Islam in European Countries should also be a warning. We need to know more about Islam and understand their goals. The Christain God and Allah are not the same. A former radical Shi'ite Muslim was quoted in a recent book as saying, "If Islam is so peaceful, why isn't there even one Muslim country that will allow freedom of religion and speech?"

May I recommend the book, What In The World Is Going On? by Pastor David Jeremiah of Shadow Mountain Community College, El Cajon, CA. It will enlighten readers about events in the world and biblical prophesies. The Islamic threat is discussed in an objective fashion. Christians are asked to pray for Muslims and he suggests "Muslims are not beyond the reach of God's grace." If they have access to the Word they will see the Light of our Lord and, though it may not be easy, find a pathway out of the darkness and involuntary acts of submission underwhich they are kept.
