Dear Muslim Friends,
Greetings to you! Today I sincerely pray that the Lord blesses you.
The message contained in these pages, “God’s Road to Salvation”
answers the question of how we can be saved from hell and accepted
into heaven by God. The Holy Bible tells us that God has put
eternity in the heart of man (Ecclesiastes 3:11). Has He not done
this so we would each take the time to stop and consider where we
will spend eternity? Yet sometimes the busyness of our daily
lives, the blessings and responsibilities, can distract us from
reflecting on the answer to this question. Today we urge you to take
the time to seek the Creator for His answer, for He has also given
you the means and the ability to find it.
The Holy Bible Says:
1-For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God; (The Book
of Romans 3:23)
We have all sinned. We are all sinners, from the best of us down to
the worst of us. Before the Holy God who created all things we are
all morally guilty, because we cannot, on our own, live up to the
holy life God expects of us.
2- But God demonstrated His love toward us in this, while we were
yet sinners, Christ died for us. (The Book of Romans 5:8)
But even though we are sinners, guilty before a holy God, God loves
us very much, and has actively lavished His love upon us by sending
His only Son, Christ Jesus, into this world to identify with us as a
man, and to die in our place as payment for our sins! Even while we
were still in our sins He did this for us! What a marvelous love God
has for us, to pay our penalty for us by the death of His only Son
on the cross!
3- For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal
life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (The Book of Romans 6:23)
You see, the penalty for our sin is death, but Jesus, being sinless,
had the power and authority to pay for everybody's sins. He also
offers us the gift of eternal life and invites us to live
with Him for eternity!
4- That if you confess with your mouth that “Jesus is Lord”, and
believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be
saved. (The Book of Roman 10:9)
Jesus died to pay the penalty for our sins and rose again on the
third day, and He overcame death which is eternal separation from
God; but each one of us must choose to accept this
free gift. If you refuse to accept this gift, you cannot enjoy the
benefits of the gift. A gift is given, not earned – indeed, the
giver would have the right to be offended if you attempted to
offer some form of payment. God desires us to humbly receive this
gift with a thankful heart.
To "confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord" means that you must
agree with God that 1) you are a sinner and you deserve to die. 2)
You cannot save yourself from hell fire. 3) The Lord Jesus paid the
penalty for your sins on the cross and He bought you with His
precious blood. 4) You need Jesus to be your Lord and Savior. If you
wish to receive the forgiveness of sin through Jesus Christ by
faith, you need only to open your heart and ask God in your own
words similar to the following:
Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I admit that my good works can’t
take away my sins and I accept You as my Lord and Savior. Cleanse
me from my sins with your precious blood, and help me to walk
according to your will. Thank you for providing a way for me to
draw near to You. Amen.
Three reasons why we have brought you this message:
1-
We care
about you and would love to see you in heaven.
2-
We are
obeying the Lord, who loves you even more, and has commanded us to
take this Good News to the whole world! (The Gospel of Jesus
according to Matthew 28:19-20)
3-
So that
when you stand before the Lord, you will not be able to plead
ignorance. You now know what God’s Word teaches about how to be
saved. The choice is yours to make, and you alone are responsible
for your decision.
My Muslim friend, you might have an understanding that if Jesus can
save all mankind then Muhammad should also have the ability to bring
salvation for all of mankind. Is this a myth or is this truly found
in the Qur’an and the Hadith? Let’s look at them together:
We read in (Sura 72:20-22) as follows:
“(20) Say (O Muhammad) I pray unto Allah only, and ascribe unto him
no partner (21) Say: Lo! I control not hurt nor benefit for you.
(22) Say Lo! None can protect me from Allah, nor can I find any
refuge beside him.”
(Sura
7:188) reiterates the same message that the prophet of Islam has no
power to hurt or help anybody, neither can he save himself from the
Judgment of God.
When we read in (Sura 26:214)
“And warn your nearest kindred”,
we see that Muhammad was commanded to warn his relatives. To
understand this verse let us look at the following Hadith:
(Sahih
Muslim vol. 1 Saying # 398 and 402)
Abu Huraira reported: When the verse “And warn your nearest
kindred” was revealed, the messenger of Allah called his tribe. So
they gathered and he gave them the general warning. Then he said,
‘Oh Fatima (his daughter), rescue yourself from hell fire, for I
have no power to protect you from Allah in anything except this,
that I would sustain relationship with you. Ask me what ever you
like, but I cannot avail you at all against Allah.”
Here we see that the prophet of Islam made it very clear to all his
relatives, including his daughter that he could not save them from
hell fire.
To see why the prophet of Islam can not save mankind from hell fire,
let us look at:
(Sahih Al-Bukhari Vol. 8 Hadith # 407): Narrated by Abu Musa:
“The prophet used to call upon Allah saying: ‘Oh my Lord forgive my
sins and my ignorance and my exceeding the limits, boundaries of
righteousness in my deeds and what you know better then I. Oh Allah
forgive my mistakes, those done intentionally or out of my
ignorance, or without, or with seriousness, and I confess that all
such mistakes are done by me. Oh Allah, forgive my sins of the past
and the future, which I did openly or secretly. You are the one that
makes things go before. And you are the one who delays them. And you
are the only omnipotent.’ ”
We also read in (Sahih Al-Bukhari in Vol. 8 Hadith # 319)
Narrated by Abu Huraira: “I heard Allah Apostle saying: ‘By Allah I
ask for forgiveness from Allah and turn to him in repentance more
then 70 times a day.’ ”
Finally let’s take a look at
(Sahih Al-Bukhari volume 5 Hadith # 266) Narrated by Um
Al-Ala, an Ansari women said: “Uthman Bin Maz’un fell ill and I
nursed him till he died. Then the prophet came to us and I said, ‘O
Abu As-Sa’ib, may Allah’s Mercy be on you! I bear witness that
Allah has honored you.’ On that the prophet said, ‘How do you know
that Allah has honored him? As to him, by Allah, death has overtaken
him, and I hope the best for him. By Allah, though I am the
apostle of Allah, yet I do not know what Allah will do to me.
By Allah, I will never assert the piety of anyone after him’ ”
From the above passage we see that the apostle of Allah,
confesses his sins, and pleads to Allah for forgiveness more than 70
times each day. Despite his pleading for forgiveness he did not know
what Allah would do to him on Judgment Day.
The prophet of Islam did the right thing by saying that he could not
save anyone. Just as a man needs to know how to swim before he can
save someone from drowning. A Savior must be sinless to save mankind
from Allah’s Judgment for sin (hell fire). The Qur’an also agrees
that Jesus was sinless as we read in)
Sura 19:19(: The
angel said: I am only a messenger from the Lord that I am bestowing
on you (Mary) a sinless (Zakia) son.
The Holy Bible says:
But the fearful, and
unbelieving,
and the abominable, and
murderers,
and
whoremongers,
and
sorcerers,
and idolaters, and all
liars,
shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and
brimstone: which is the
second
death
(Revelation 21:8).
But The Holy Bible also says:
“Therefore Jesus is able to save to the uttermost those who come to
God through Him since He always lives to make
intercession for them.” (Hebrews 7:25).
And before you say that the Holy Bible has been corrupted,
you need to ask yourself: Has the Holy Bible been corrupted?
Before you say that Christians worship three gods, you need to
ask yourself: Do Christians really worship three gods? Have
you ever read the Holy Bible? A suspect is considered innocent
until proven guilty!
Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life!
Now you have an opportunity to find out for yourself, as God has
given you the means and the ability to search for the truth.
