Publisher's Synopsis
The complexities and realities of Islam are often stark and counter to Western societal norms, as well as Judeo-Christian beliefs. This work is not an attempt to demean or denigrate individual Muslims, many whom are seeking a life of safety and peace. It is, however, an effort to alert the Christian community in America and the West to the great challenges and dangers of Islam as an ideology of conquest. Although Islam is an immense challenge, it offers the church in the West, and particularly in America, a great opportunity to reach those in bondage to darkness and expose them to the Light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.This thorough study on the Messenger, Message and Mission of the Qur'an and the Bible, the key actors, Muhammad and Jesus Christ will provide the reader with a complete understanding of the two divergent ideologies: Islam and Christianity. While this abridged version provides vital information on the world's two dominant religious ideologies, the text book size Compendium is 180,000 words longer and provides many charts, addendums and additional information of interest for the serious student and church, community, political and educational leaders.
