My prayer is this, "Come Holy Spirit or Allah and give me wisdom. If Muhammed is a prophet help me know this. God forgive me because I am a sinner and with my whole mind, body and spirit I want only to know you better."
I am totally sincere and beg you to help me understand. In all honestly, please motive me enough to want to leave the God I know through Christianity to the God that Islam wants me to know. I would love to know a greater love according to the prophet Muhammed who you say is better for me to know.
The God I know is this: "For God so love the world He sent his only Son to redeem the sins of the world." We both agree that only God can provide our way to the truth. Only he can forgive us and redeem us and allow us into heaven. Isn't that why you say He spoke to Muhammed?
But wasn't Jesus sent to the Jews because the Jews would know him? They were the only monotheistic culture around and for over a millenium of time the Jews were being prepared to receive Him. They had been taught that attonement was needed to forgive sins. (That's why they offered the blood sacrifices of perfect animals.) And God who is consubstantial (of the same essence) in Christ did just that. He was the lamb of the world who came to be the ultimate attonment for our sins.
This is just so awesome to me. It fills me with so much love to know this. If Islam knows better, please I beg you let me in on it. Please help me know what Islam has to offer me that will make me holy and righteous enough to be with Him for everlasting life in heaven.
The laws from the prophet Muhammed seem to me to be too good to be true. I would prefer to live by your laws then according to Christian faith. So I'm motivited to be and eager to accept your ways, if they will get me to heaven.
With love in my heart for you, God bless you. God bless you for keeping an open mind too.
