For many years I was a zealous Muslim, as were my wife and children. I was born in the UK, but during my life I have travelled a lot in Muslim countries. I knew both British and Muslim culture. I lived in Saudi Arabia, where I studied theology and contributed to the Muslim mission among foreign laborers. I also spent time in Afghanistan under the rule of the Taliban, in Pakistan, and in the Pakistani part of Kashmir. I also spent time in Bosnia. In recent years, I’ve been living with my family in London, where, some time ago, I became the Muslim representative in a well-known inter-religious organization dedicated to peace. For the past two years, I was an advisor on Islam to the Archbishop of Canterbury. Two days ago, I called him to tell him I was entering Orthodoxy in the Russian Church.

God is working among the Muslims, for He is willing that no sinner should perish!
The silent and invisible minority. Most of the small percentage of Christian Palestinians left in the Holy Land are Orthodox, and they suffer twice: under Islamic tyranny and under the yoke of extreme poverty. You will almost never hear about them in the news. Unfortunately, Jews that convert are also not treated well at all, either, but Jesus said we’d be persecuted for following Him.
Per your tagline: Thank you for your service.
The thank you goes to my son. He’s in his 136 th day of this deployment to Afghanistan.
The estimate of Messianic Jews in Israel is now 17,000 and growing.
Blessings to you and your son, Patriot!
He’s brave, doesn’t leaving Islam earn you a death sentence that other Muslims are obligated to attempt to enforce?
This is a good thing.Amen.
WOW. That’s amazing! I didn’t know. I saw an interesting clip on Youtube recent, which was taken from an Al Jazeera interview, where a Muslim sheikh was complaining to the host that 6 million Muslims in Africa are converting to Christianity every year. He said that Islam is “losing Africa” to the Christians. 6 million is the estimated number of Muslims in the US, for reference. The Lord is good!
That’s my understanding.
Funny what happens when you are exposed to the Gospel.
This is the interview I was referring to:

“He’s brave, doesn’t leaving Islam earn you a death sentence that other Muslims are obligated to attempt to enforce?”
Yep, so pray for him!
The first time that I had the desire to study the New Testament in detail was when I was in front of the Kaaba in MeccaGood news, this.Christian literature is strictly prohibited in Saudi Arabia and many websites are even blocked, but with the development of modern communications, it is not difficult for those who are looking to find the Word of God.
I was wondering about that, but realized you can now get the Bible on your iPhone or other hidden/portable medium.
If you’re right, I’m going to have to change my perspective. I probably need to anyway.
May all the Muslims learn the Truth about Isa the prophet.
Glory to God.
