Testify

Muslims testify, "There is no god but Allah and Mohammed is his messenger". As part of the call to prayer, this creed blares from loudspeakers or, where there is no electricity, it is shouted from the rooftops in every city, town and village of Morocco five times per day. Reciting the creed is considered enough to make one a Muslim and foreign visitors to Morocco may be challenged to do so.

Muslims reject the Trinity, as we know it. They say, "Allah does not beget, nor is he begotten". Therefore, Allah is not a father and Jesus is not his son. Christ is referred to as "the son of Mary". Muslims proclaim that Allah has no partners. They believe the Spirit of God is the angel Gabriel. The Muslim Allah is wholly unknowable, transcendent, and unpredictable. He is unknown as the God who is Love.

Believers in Christ know the joy and assurance of being beloved children of their eternal Father. The only relationship a Muslim can hope to obtain in relation to God is that of unprofitable slave to master, a small hope indeed. Muslims believe their actions will be weighed in a balance on judgment day. Since it is not possible to know whether one’s good deeds will outweigh the bad, it is impossible to have an assurance of heaven. Real assurance of salvation is unknown in Islam.

Given an opportunity to present a concise testimony to the Muslim world over a loudspeaker, what would you say? How about…

"For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all men." I Timothy 2:5,6
Jesus is "The Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" John 1:29b

Pray Moroccan Muslims will recognize their need for salvation and for a deeper relationship with God that can only be satisfied in Christ.
Pray the testimony of the hope within Moroccan Christians will be powerful and will become as widely known as the Muslim creed.
Pray many Moroccan seekers of truth will find Him.
