Truth For Muslims is educating Americans about the true nature of Islam through our seminars, publications, websites, and audio media.
One of our specialties is conductiing training seminars in churches to help Christians understand Islam and how it compares to the teaching of the Bibles.
This is called apologetics: understanding how to defend our faith. Tell us what you think is the best way for us to get the word out to more people.
Take the online poll here. Poll is on the top right.
Perhaps if they stopped cutting off people’s heads and blowing people up they would have an audiance to educate. The only truth I see in Islam is murder.
Online - July 15, 2008 - Truth For Muslims is brining a comprehensive, biblical response to Islam in America. Since its establishment as a ministry project of Spear Ministries, Inc. in 2004, thousands of Christians across the United States have joined to partner with Truth For Muslims through prayer, giving, and learning.
The key to our growth has been through relationships with people who have benefited from our teaching or who have been inspired by our message.
Truth For Muslims is now ready to grow significantly through our online presence. Your help is needed to make this happen.
The internet is a powerful networking and communications system. Your online network of relationships and communication can be harnessed to help people understand the challenge of Islam from a biblical world-view perspective.
By helping others better understand the challenge of Islam in our generation, you will help future generations to be prepared for the challenge that will remain long after you and I have passed on.

Turkey's ruling AKP party had promised voters it would respect the secular democratic Republic of Turkey but..
Turkey's most controversial religious leader, Fethullah Gulen, has a broad following and has close relations with the ruling "Islamist-rooted Justice and Development Party (AKP) government;" he was charged with "forming an illegal terrorist organization that aimed to introduce Sharia law using force and violence." Though acquitted he figures in the closure case against the AKP itself.
"[M]any in Turkey believe he is plotting to dismantle the secular state."
Turkey's Constitutional Court is deciding the case against the AKP and the head of the court "demanded the file of the case against the religious sect leader."
In the case against the AKP Turkey's "top prosecutor had written in his indictment that President Abdullah Gul wanted Turkish embassies to cooperate with schools belonging to Gulen with a mandate issued during his term in the foreign ministry." That is just one of the charges against the Islamist AKP ruling party. The court's decision is due in August some say. Then new elections? or
The point of posting this? If they cannot sell Islamist stuff in a country of Muslims why try it here?
Just out of curiosity I clicked on the “Jesus in the Koran” link to see what the apologetics had to say. I have read a good portion of the Koran (not in English) focusing mostly on the stories that are found in the Bible (Noah, Abraham, Jesus, Mary). This is on of the first paragraphs from the essay:
“The word Isa for Jesus is a unique word, a purely Quranic name which never occurs in the Bible. [1] Scholars are not in agreement about how this name came to be used by Mohammed and it seems the name itself has no meaning. The Arabic name for Jesus, used in the Arabic Christian Bible, is “Yeshua,” which means “the Lord saves.” The name Yeshua corresponds to the Hebrew name, Joshua, and the Greek form of the name, Jesus.”
The peace-loving moslems love to claim that so much of their Koran is unique and spoken only by their prophets. It is obvious even to the casual reader of the Koran that muhamet plagiarized stories from the bible that he received through the Arab oral tradition. He changed the parts that he thought too fantastic in order to fit his self-proclaimed role as prophet.
Back to the story of Jesus. Isa is not a unique word, but rather muhamet’s rendering of the Biblical Prophet Isaiah. Isaiah often wrote using a “Messianic” style in which he used the prophetic future tense found in the Semitic languages. Using this tense allowed Isaiah to write about the future coming of the Messiah while appearing to write first person. In this sense Isaiah fulfilled the greatest role of any true prophet: to testify of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, and the salvation that comes only through Him! It is easy to understand how a charlatan like muhamet would confuse Isaiah's Messianic Prophesies with the first person voice of the Lord found elsewhere in the Bible. In muhamet’s mind, Isaiah and Jesus Christ are the same person, thus the confusion of names in the Koran.
In other news, the Koran states that Mary hid from her family because she was pregnant out of wedlock. When her relatives found her out, the infant Jesus surprised everyone by speaking and telling her family members that he was sent by Allah to deliver the Koran to them (very brief summary). Apparently Jesus’ being the Son of God is too fantastic to be believable, but a speaking newborn is not. Hmmmm. Also found interspersed in these verses are the confessions that Allah is all-powerful and can do anything (except send a child to earth).
islam itself is the greatest lie ever told to this day.
