In the Name of God the Most Holy and Most Loving God
Assalaam `alaikum
Dear Friend,
There is a message on my heart that I want to share with you. I really do believe that `Isa ibn Miriam, Jesus Christ, (may his peace be upon us) is alive and is powerfully at work in people's lives today. He has changed my life and the lives of many other people. But it's not just my personal experience. The Bible teaches that that `Isa ibni Miriam, Jesus Christ, was prophesied by all the prophets that came before him, to have the power and authority to do this. He not only is the fulfillment of all the prophets from Moses on, but he, also, is the great ransom that all the prophets believed in and looked forward to. Yet he was human like us. He has shown his greatness by his teachings and by the amazing miracles that he has done. Yet he understood the needs of ordinary men and women. He has shown his greatness by demonstrating his power over death. He has shown his greatness by ascending alive up into heaven and being seated at the right hand of God. He has shown his greatness by continually interceding for those who confess they have sinned against God. He will show his greatness by coming back one day to claim all those who trust in him. He will show his greatness and purity when he fairly judges the world. At his very presence demons and evil flee and the use of his name does many miracles. But he has done all this because of his great care for mankind, not out of personal gain.
Have you ever regretted something good happening to you? The Bible claim that Jesus Christ came to bless the whole world. If that is true, we as humans are under great obligation to know and follow the truth. Many times truth takes time to investigate, but if, what you and I believe, is the truth, it will be confirmed in time if we honestly search for it.
My search began by admitting I had failed God and then desiring to know the way back to him. I'm not saying these things out of religious arrogance, claiming to be better than anyone else. I, too, have failed God as all humans have. The end of all these matters is to have God reveal himself to us in a very real way, to experience his acceptance in this life in spite of our failures and to experience the assurance of being in heaven with God for eternity. I don't want anyone to accept a doctrine that is simply head knowledge, or an outward form of religion that contains no real life, but instead, one that encourages us toward purity and right living. God's kingdom doesn't divide along outwardly visible religious lines. The complete list of those who will inherit His kingdom are known only to God, but each individual can know if he personally is in it or not. I believe I have experienced life in this kingdom and I encourage you to investigate it for yourself. May God's peace be upon you.
Sincerely,
Your friend, a servant of truth
