How Muslims Are Coming to Christ: In East Africa, I talked with Elias... His own initiation into being a Muslim evangelist came from Abdul-Ahad, a sheik from Mogadishu, Somalia. The sheik had been involved in drug running, prostitution, and extortion... One night, the sheik showed up at the home of Elias and said, Yes or no—Jesus blood can wash away the sins of the world? Elias said, Yes, it can. The sheik replied, Thats a lie because he could never wash away all my sins. Ive done terrible things. Elias said to him, If you and I agree tonight, then God will forgive you. He prayed with him and the sheik was saved at that moment. But before he left, the sheik took Alias by the arm and said, You know when you see people like me with the beard and with the prayer-skull cap, you stay away from us because youre afraid of us. He said, The truth is we want you to be afraid of us. He said, But when you see people like me you need to know that were empty and were lost. Elias told me, That was my Macedonian call. From then on I never saw Muslims the same way again.
