A three-year study just completed by the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life reveals that 1 of 4 people is Muslim. How can we—believers in Jesus—effectively and winsomely communicate our faith to our Muslim neighbors?

In order to communicate the “Gospel of Jesus” to
Muslims, or any one else we must 1st pray that
God would give us the words to say and prepare
their hearts to receive, not focus
so much on how difficult it maybe, because We
can do all thing through Christ who Strengthens us!
(phil 4:13) Jesus is the word made flesh, and now
that he lives in us, we are the word made flesh, and
Jesus says that we will do greater works than He
did! Saying all this to say that if we place the
demand on the power of God that is in us and
speak what he gives us to speak instead of trying
to come up with our own words, then we can’t fail,
Only God knows what that individual needs to hear
at that time. In these times
God is pulling on the hearts of the people like
never before, and witnessing is starting to be
easier than ever- people today are hungry for
change and they
need results, so it’s not really about trying to get
someone one to believe in a certain doctrine, but if
you can’t provide evidence
(which is what a witness does)
that JESUS lives then you can win them over-we
can do that just by giving our testimony! people
that don’t acknowledge JESUS as Lord Saviour
whether they are Muslim or just non-believers,
most of them just lack truth-and if we can tell them
the truth with proof then we got them-And just
remeber that when we talk to them we are just
planting a seed or
watering a seed that has already been planted but
it’s GOD who
gives the increase and He can’t fail!!

Honestly, that survey figure doesn’t apply in all places. Maybe in Indonesia, or in any other Middle East countries 1 out of 4 people are Muslims but not globally. I mean, even in my country the Philippines we have Muslims but the ratio 1:4 isn’t true at all. And the reason they’re growing in numbers is because of birth, not because of anything else. Anyway, the best way to communicate our faith is to live by what we preach. They’re observing us, watching us how we live and conduct our lives. If they could experience through us the love, forgiveness, and peace we have in Jesus , then they will gladly deny their old religion and embrace the lordship of Christ.
