New Podcast Let Us Reason - A Christian/Muslim Dialogue

Al Fadi continues his series on how to respond to crisis as Christians; 5. By giving to the needy brothers and sisters in the lord (1 john 3:17).  6. Remain connected to the body of Christ; being isolated is dangerous; and there is a lot of ways to stay connected on line.  7. Be the church; remember we need to be the salt and light of the world.  People are more open to listen to the message in time of crisis. "The greatest testimony are Christians who love the world the way God loved them; Al said". John 3:16, 1 john 4: 9.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

      Al Fadi gives some ministry updates on social media, for example ; You tube   cirainternational live streams.  He continues to share two more ways christians should    respond to a crisis:  3. Placing the interest of others ahead of ours, Philippians 2:3-4.  4. Buying what we need, and trusting that God will supply our needs: Matthew 6:33.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi shares what our reaction should be as christian believers in times of crisis as Covid 19 for example in the age of social media where news spread fast. 1. Not to promote fake news,Proverbs 11:14, ask yourself what good sharing that news? Philippians 4:8 talks about thinking about what is true,honorable,just,lovely and excellent. Our reaction impact others.  2. We must not let fear rule over us, because others are watching us. Isaiah 41:10 and 2 Timothy 1:7 talks about the right reaction is not fear.  Isaiah 26: 3 says that God will keep us in perfect peace if we are trusting the Lord.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi continues today's show by picking up from last week's final post discussion of Islamic dilemma; " The Quran speaks of a fake Jesus who is called"Isa",yet he is not the son of God". This Isa is not the Jesus of the bible, Al tries to explain why.  Next he discusses two posts about why Muhammad is not in heaven,ie: in the hell fire now. Reason number one is he denied the only way to heaven,Jesus. Second,he broke every commandment and Jesus said in Mt 13:41 that law breakers will be thrown into hell.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi discusses four posts today: 1. The dilemma of Islamic counterfeits on 3/6/20;" The Quran speaks of a cross that is counterfeit! The one who died on it is unknown and was used as a replacement for The REAL JESUS to deceive humanity! 2.The dilemma of Islamic Archaeology,3/4/20; " can any of our Muslim friends present a SINGLE archaeological proof that MUHAMMAD is buried in his alledged grave in Medina! 3. Jesus exposes Mohammad, John 8:44. 4. The dilemma of Islamic counterfeit; The Quran speaks of a fake Jesus it calls him Issa.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi gives five reasons for why we believe that Jesus is Divine: 1.Jesus asked his disciples who do they think He was. 2. The Bible teaches of the preexistence of Jesus.3. He is the creator,(John 1:1).  4.. Jesus identified himself as divine. 5.. The apostles identified Him as divine. Listen to learn the details.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi goes through multiple passages from the old testament( Ps.110:1, Ps 24:7,8, Ps 45:67, Isa. 44:6, Ps 102:25) and some from the new testament(1 Pt 3:15,1 Cor. 2:8, Rev. 1:18,2:15, Heb. 1) to explain how both the OT and the NT agree that Jesus is Lord.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi continues his study on hope from the gospel of John . He says that Jesus is the revealer of God; If we want to know God we need to know Jesus.  We need to be courageous and confident because God is in us and with us. In verses 15-17 , Jesus says that if we love him we need to obey his commandments; 1. our obedience is an evidence of our faith. 2. He will send the Holy Spirit as our helper,and the H.S. in us is another reason for hope. Verse 18 , Jesus said that He will not leave us as orphans ,and if we have a relationship with Him we are not alone and we have hope. . See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Fadi  talks about how to have hope in Christ.  He uses the passage in the gospel of John 14:1-6. 1. To have hope you have to believe in Christ.  2. If you believe in Christ ,it also means that you believe in the Father. 3. If you believe that Christ has a place for you in the Father's house, you will not be troubled. 4. If you know Jesus you know the way to heaven because Jesus said that he is the way. The question is do you know Him? Do you know the way? If you do, share Him with others, but if you don't accept Him by faith.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
