FORMER IMAM AND DIRECT DESCENDANT OF MUHAMMAD SAYS JESUS APPEARED TO HIM IN DREAMS — NOW HE PREACHES CHRIST AS THE ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN His name is Thomas Samuel. Raised in a strict Salafi household, he served as an imam, hosted a program on a Salafi television channel, and traced his bloodline straight back to the family of Muhammad through Ali, the fourth Caliph. He had position. Pedigree. A platform. Then the doubts came. The turmoil grew so dark it led to multiple suicide attempts. Dying, alone, he spoke to God for the first time — a desperate cry to be saved. God answered. That night he dreamed, and a Man looked deep into his eyes. He knew instantly who it was. 'It is your time to follow Me.' He woke up and argued with himself — a hallucination, surely. So he threw down a challenge: appear again, or it isn't real. In the next dream, Jesus spoke once more: hadn't He already said it was time? That settled it. The imam who once evangelized for Islam now proclaims Jesus as the Way, the Truth, and the Life — and says Christ personally reveals Himself to those who have no other way to hear the Gospel. Heaven chased down a son of Muhammad's own house. The question for us: if God pursues His enemies that relentlessly, what excuse do we have not to answer Him?"

Good evening, brethren. 1. Evening devotional for today. ED.i. *DAILY WALK WITH CHRIST* (COCIN DEVOTIONAL) *DATE:* SATURDAY, 18TH JULY, 2026. *SUB-THEME:* THE CONSEQUENCES OF REJECTING GOD'S GRACE. *TOPIC:* LAWSUITS *TEXT:* 1 CORINTHIANS 6:1-8. 1 If any of you has a grievance against another, how dare he go to law before the unrighteous instead of before the saints! 2 Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases? Mat 19:28 Luk 22:30 [Rev 3:21] 3 Do you not know that we will judge angels? How muchmore the things of this life! 4 So if you need to settle everyday matters, do you appoint as judges those of no standing in the church? 5 I say this to your shame. Is there really no one among you wise enough to arbitrate between his brothers? 6 Instead, one brother goes to law against another, and this in front of unbelievers! 7 The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means that you are thoroughly defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated? Pro 20:22 Mat 5:39 Rom 12:17 1Th 5:15 1Pe 3:9 [Lev 19:18] [Luk 6:29] 8 Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, even against your own brothers! *TOPIC:* LAWSUITS *THE MESSAGE:* A lawsuit is a proceeding by one or more parties against the other in a civil court of law. In our text, Paul expresses sadness in the way the Corinthian believers were dragging themselves to court before unbelievers, which affected the Church. This is a denial of the work of the Holy Spirit among believers. A church that claimed to have all the spiritual gifts could not solve trivial issues within themselves. What an irony! The Bible encourages us to settle matters quickly with our adversaries and to live at peace with everyone (Mt. 5:25a). Lawsuits may be helpful after exhausting all available options, as prescribed in Scripture (Mt. 18:15-17). However, try as much as you can to avoid lawsuits because it does not always serve God's purpose (Rom. 12:18). *REFLECTION:* Why not allow yourself to be cheated? *PRAYER:* Father, help me to resolve issues in a scriptural manner. Amen. *MEMORY VERSE FOR THE MONTH:* HEBREWS 10:29. 29 How much more severely do you think one deserves to be punished who has trampled on the Son of God, profaned the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and insulted the Spirit of grace? *TODAY'S BIBLE READING PLAN:* ISAIAH 17-20. ED.ii. JERUSALEM, A UNIQUE CITY "For the Lord has chosen Jerusalem; He has desired it for His home." - Psalm 132:13 Why is the city of Jerusalem so important? Why is the Middle East conflict so complicated? To the Jews, Jerusalem is the heart of the land promised and given to them by God. Jews from all over the world come to Jerusalem to pray at the Wailing Wall. To Muslims, Jerusalem is the city where they say their prophet Muhammad ascended to heaven. The Dome of the Rock is in Jerusalem and is one of the holiest places for Muslims. To Christians, Jerusalem is the city Jesus often visited. It is where He was crucified just outside the city gate on the hill Calvary. It is the place where He was buried and rose from death. Moreover, it is the city where He will return. Do you understand why Jerusalem is so important? It is the city chosen by God to live in. 'This is My resting place forever, He said. I will live here, for this is the home I desired' (Psalm 132:14). The city has often been occupied by several nations. In Zechariah 12:3 it says: 'I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves.' God has given this city to Abraham and this is the core of the conflict. This conflict cannot be resolved by human interaction. Isaac, the son of Abraham, was the fruit of God's promise. God established an eternal covenant with him. The Jews came from him. The Arabs came from the other son, Ishmael. However, God said that He would make a covenant with Abraham's son Isaac, and not with Ishmael (see Genesis 17:19). https://www.theblessingdevotional.com 2. Evening Prayer for today. EP.i. Evening Prayer I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety. ⏤ Psalm 4:8 When we cannot see our way, we must trust that the Lord has all our paths mapped out and knows the end from the beginning. ⏤ Charles Spurgeon O Jesus, You love us, and we come now to rest in Your love at the end of this week. It hasn’t been easy for us. We’ve had our work, our tasks, our burdens, our struggles, our anxieties, our duties, and our sorrows. We’re tired tonight. Our feet are weary from the long journey. It’s comforting to remember that You, blessed Jesus, were tired more than once during Your time on earth. We’ve read how You sat down at the well, so weary from traveling in the hot dust that You couldn’t go any further. You understand how we feel when we’re tired. We’re grateful for Your sympathy tonight. Accept our day’s work and make it Yours. Forgive anything wrong You’ve seen in what we’ve said or done. Don’t let anything we’ve done bring harm to Your cause or to anyone else. Forgive any rash words or actions that may have caused pain to someone. Take our work, cleanse it, perfect it, and then use it to help build Your kingdom. The night is before us, but even in its darkness, You walk beside us as our unseen Friend. We want to stay close to You, to hide ourselves in the shelter of Your love—because then no harm will come to us and no evil will touch us. Take care of us—because we can’t take care of ourselves. Keep us—because we can’t keep ourselves. Watch over us in the darkness of the night—because we can’t protect our own lives. Give us refreshing rest in sleep and prepare us for the Sunday that will dawn in the morning. May it truly be the Lord’s Day for us, and may we be in the Spirit, and the Spirit in us. Gather us close to Your heart and cover our home with Your wings. We ask all this in Jesus’ precious name. Amen. https://www.youdevotion.com/daily-prayer/miller/13/evening #taptapstudio #youdevotion.

When I was Muslim, Surah 5:32 was my favorite verse to quote. “Whoever kills a soul, it is as if he killed all of mankind.” I put it in every debate. Every conversation about Islam and peace. It felt like the most beautiful verse in the Quran. Then I read it slowly. The verse doesn’t say Allah revealed this to Muhammad. It says: “We decreed upon the CHILDREN OF ISRAEL…” Wait. Decreed where? When? I went looking. And I found it. Mishnah Sanhedrin 4:5. A rabbinic commentary on Cain and Abel, written down around 200 AD — four centuries before the Quran. Rabbis discussing why Genesis says Abel’s “bloods” cry out — plural — and concluding: whoever destroys one soul, it is as if he destroyed an entire world. Word for word. Same context. Same Cain and Abel story it’s attached to in Surah 5. The most beautiful verse in the Quran is a rabbi’s classroom commentary. And that’s when the question changed for me. It was never “is this verse beautiful?” It was: what is a rabbinic homily doing inside a book that claims to be the eternal, uncreated speech of God? Because there are only two options. Either Allah quoted the rabbis. Or a man in Arabia heard Jewish teachers and repeated what they said. The Bible predicted men would do this. Jeremiah 23:30 — “I am against the prophets who steal my words from one another.” I stopped defending the borrowed word. I found the Living Word. PRAISE MY KING JESUS CHRIST, I’M FREE!

Civilizational Shift and the Price of Compromise When federal agents breached the hidden sub-basement of an unassuming home in Annandale, Virginia, in the summer of 2004, they were tracking the illicit financial arteries of foreign terror. What began as a standard traffic stop by an alert Maryland officer—who caught a woman videotaping the support structures of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge—led straight to the residence of a high-level financier. Packed tightly within eighty banker boxes of secretive archives, agents unearthed a far more profound reality: the 1991 Explanatory Memorandum. This handwritten Arabic document explicitly outlined a grand strategy for a “Civilization-Jihad,” a patient, internal sabotage designed for “eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within” by establishing stable networks, schools, and mosques until the host nations are subverted. Yet, to gaze upon the physical manifestation of this strategy today—manifested in the all-Muslim city council of Hamtramck passing ordinances for residential animal slaughter, the implementation of binding Sharia-compliant civil tribunals in Dallas, or the outdoor loudspeakers broadcasting the Arabic call to prayer five times a day in Dearborn—and see only a masterfully executed conspiracy is to utterly misread the spiritual laws of history. An aggressive, disciplined worldview cannot occupy a territory unless that territory has first been entirely emptied of its own convictions. History provides the blueprint for this transformation. We saw it in Lebanon, once a stable, prosperous, Christian-majority nation known as the “Paris of the Middle East,” which completely fractured into civil war and lost its political gravity due to a massive demographic shift and higher birth rates among the incoming population. We saw it in the sudden, top-down theocratic takeover of Iran in 1979, which dismantled a highly modernized, secular society overnight. We see it in the incremental, systematic rollback of secularism in Turkey, where the public square was steadily re-engineered to enforce a collective religious order. These historical precedents show that a structural takeover does not require a foreign flag to be raised over the Capitol building overnight. Instead, it moves through the multi-cultural guardrails of our own making, leveraging local democratic math to capture school boards and city councils, and expanding hate speech laws to protect the new dominant religious culture. The current vulnerability of the United States and the United Kingdom is a direct, damning indictment of a watchman who fell asleep at the gate. For decades, the professing church across the Western world has engaged in a steady, comfortable retreat from its foundational truths, trading the absolute authority of the Word for cultural relevance, entertainment, and lukewarm compromise. While the incoming movement maintained an unyielding, literal devotion to its texts and distinct boundaries, the modern West systematically diluted its own inheritance. Scriptural warnings were ignored, and a hyper-individualistic society began to view children as economic burdens rather than an heritage of the Lord, causing traditional birth rates to plummet into a demographic abyss. Into this vacuum stepped a community that understands the raw power of the generational cradle, filling the physical, political, and cultural spaces that Christians voluntarily abandoned. History confirms that a lukewarm, fractured faith possesses no structural integrity when confronted by an uncompromising, unified worldview. By surrendering the public square to a secular mirage and trusting in political systems rather than spiritual steadfastness, the host culture engineered its own vulnerability. As the historic identity of these nations is steadily displaced piece by piece, the lesson remains absolute: a civilization is never truly conquered from without until it has fully hollowed itself out from within. #CivilizationJihad #ExplanatoryMemorandum #WatchmenOfTheNight #DefenceOfTheTruth #FaithInAction A Comprehensive Critique of the Quran and Muhammad 🗡️ https://thelordsreturn.com/critique-of-the-quran

Muslims often say that Islam honors and elevates women. But what does the reality in Islamic sources actually say?In the Quran, men are clearly placed in authority over women:“Men are in charge of women because Allah has made one of them to excel the other…” (Quran 4:34) A man is permitted to beat his wife if he fears “disobedience” (same verse). A woman’s inheritance is half that of a man (Quran 4:11). The testimony of one woman equals half the testimony of one man (Quran 2:282). Even worse, the Quran explicitly allows men to have sexual relations with their female captives and slaves — “those whom your right hands possess” (Quran 4:24, 23:5-6, 33:50). These women had no choice; they were war booty, treated as property for sexual use.Muhammad himself had multiple slave concubines and even received young slave girls as gifts. In Islam, a free woman still has significantly lower rights than a man, and a slave woman has almost none.So the question arises: Is this really “honoring women,” or is it institutionalizing male dominance and treating women as second-class humans — or even property?The strange final question:If Islam truly respects women as equals, would you be comfortable telling your own mother, sister, or daughter that according to Islamic law, her worth is literally half of a man’s in court and inheritance, that her husband has the right to beat her for disobedience, and that if she were captured in war, she could legally become a sex slave for her captor?Be honest with yourself.

From Miriam Pschak “I was born a Muslim in Iran. I was raised on Islam, educated in its scriptures, and even became an Islamic leader here in America—an Imam, an executive director of CAIR, and president of the Muslim Forum of Utah. So don’t insult my intelligence by telling me I believe in something I don’t understand. I understand Islam inside and out—and that’s why I left it. You say Islam is the religion of Abraham and that Christianity is paganism? That’s the same tired propaganda I used to preach before I studied the Bible for myself. Abraham looked forward to the promise of the Messiah (John 8:56), and that promise was fulfilled in Jesus Christ—the Son of God, not just a prophet, but God in the flesh. You call it idolatry, but the truth is, you worship a distant, unknowable deity who demands submission but offers no assurance of salvation, no love, and no personal relationship. Islam claims simplicity, but it's not spiritual clarity—it's theological shallowness wrapped in slogans. You say “God alone,” but then claim the Qur'an is eternal and uncreated, that Muhammad is the perfect man, and that prayers must be recited in Arabic to be valid. That’s not pure monotheism—that’s blind ritualism. You call Christianity confusing, yet it’s Islam that denies the very sacrifice that fulfills God's justice and love. I’ve seen Christian doctors, scientists, and theologians embrace Jesus not because they’re deceived, but because they found the truth—a truth you refuse to face because it means letting go of the lies you were fed. Islam is not the religion of Abraham—it’s a 7th-century political invention that twisted Scripture to build an empire. I left Islam not because I was ignorant—but because I finally understood it. And once I saw the truth in Christ, I was set free.”

Many of us often hear Muslims claim that Islam is the “perfect and complete religion” and that Muhammad is the “perfect role model” (uswa hasana) for all humanity.But there is one well-documented historical fact, accepted by all major Sunni scholars and repeatedly discussed on social media, that seriously undermines Islam:According to the most authentic Hadiths (Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim), Muhammad married Aisha when she was 6 years old and consummated the marriage (had sexual intercourse with her) when she was 9 years old.This is the same man whom Muslims claim is the greatest moral example in history and the final prophet of God.Let us ask this simple and honest question:If the “best of creation” and the “perfect role model” for all mankind had sexual relations with a 9-year-old child, what does that say about the moral standard of Islam?Jesus Christ taught us to protect the innocent and never harm children. He said, “Let the little children come to me.” Muhammad, on the other hand, took a little girl as his wife and had sex with her while she was still a child.This is not a minor cultural issue. It is a profound moral contradiction.If Muhammad is supposed to be the eternal example for all people in every time and place, then how can a religion whose founder did this claim to come from a holy and righteous God?Dear Christians, it is time to speak with both love and clarity:A religion whose prophet had sexual relations with a 9-year-old girl cannot be from the pure and holy God revealed in the Bible. This is a serious ethical flaw that cannot be easily dismissed or explained away.The difference is clear:Jesus said: “Let the children come to me.” Muhammad took a child for himself.See the difference.

A Call for Truth and Justice: The Mariamabad Islamicist's Easter Attack The tragedy that struck our Christian community during the sunrise procession in Mariamabad, located on Ali Pur Road near Gujranwala, has moved beyond a horrific act of violence into a deeply troubling case of institutional cover-up. What was supposed to be a sacred morning for 200 peaceful worshippers turned into a scene of carnage when a loader truck was deliberately driven into the crowd at high speed. The resulting chaos left one person dead and over 60 others injured, many of whom are still fighting for their lives in the District Headquarters Hospital. Despite the church administration proactively requesting security, the authorities were absent when the attack occurred and arrived significantly late to the scene, even though the local police station is only a short walk away. We are now witnessing a deliberate attempt by the police to manipulate the narrative and protect the perpetrators. By registering themselves as the primary complainant in the FIR, the police have effectively sidelined the victims and eyewitnesses, allowing them to frame this targeted act of terrorism as a mere accident. Our investigation into the official records reveals shocking discrepancies that cannot be ignored. The phone number 03054504706, which the FIR lists as belonging to the attacker Bilal Muhammad, is actually registered to Muhammad Amjad (CNIC: 35202-16798353) of Lahore. Additionally, the second individual, Abdul Hanan, is linked to phone number 03084747697 and CNIC 34302-32760453. These falsified details suggest a coordinated effort to shield the real culprits and obstruct the path to justice. I have seen the pain of our community firsthand in Gujranwala, and we will not stay silent while facts are twisted. The local authorities have betrayed the very people they are sworn to protect by providing a shield for Jihadi Bilal Muhammad and his associates. We demand an immediate, transparent investigation overseen by higher authorities to ensure that those responsible for this premeditated violence face the full force of the law. The victims of the Mariamabad attack deserve the truth, and our NGO will continue to fight until every inconsistency is addressed and justice is finally served. -Shakir Nazar Chairman GS-HRP #JusticeForMariamabad #HumanRightsPakistan #Gujranwala #EndTargetedViolence #GoodSamaritanNGO

A NUGGET OF TRUTH. THE SMOKESCREEN WAR. How Evangelical Zionism Serves Papal Global Dominance. The theological "hijacking" of American policy serves a much deeper, more terrestrial master than most realize. While the public focus remains on the visible conflict in the Middle East, the prophetic students of the Word recognize the fulfillment of Revelation 13:11-12. This passage describes a power that "had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon," exercising all the power of the "first beast" before him. We are currently witnessing the United States, the lamb-like power,beginning to speak with the voice of the dragon by using its military might to enforce an agenda that benefits a global religious confederacy. By focusing the world's attention on Iran as a "Muslim Antichrist" or a "beast of the east," the true "beast from the sea" described in Revelation 13:1-5 remains hidden in plain sight, operating through the shadows of diplomacy and religious infiltration. The strategy is clear: keep the "Protestant" masses of America obsessed with a literal temple in Jerusalem and a literal war in the Persian Gulf so they do not see the steady dismantling of religious liberty at home. This diversion is the masterpiece of a system that seeks to heal its "deadly wound" by uniting church and state. By casting Iran as the ultimate biblical villain, apostate religious leaders can pressure the United States government to abandon its role as a defender of liberty and instead become an instrument of religious crusade. This is the very essence of the "image to the beast," where religious dogmas are enforced by the sword of the state. The war against Iran is not merely about oil or terrorism; it is a struggle of faith: - The Papal world religious control. - A branch of Islam receptive to ecumenism. - A branch of Islam that opposes ecumenism. Sunnis have embraced the Abraham Accords, a path to ecumenical unity with other faiths, aligning with the Vatican’s vision of a “brotherhood of religions.” Shia Muslims (Iranians), who require their leaders to be direct blood descendants of Muhammad, cannot accept this inclusive framework. Their exclusivity makes them an obstacle to a unified world religious order. The current war is the result of a tragic misuse of biblical imagery to justify human ambition and papal strategy. It is high time for believers to put away the maps of earthly Palestine and pick up the map of the Heavenly Sanctuary. We must recognize that our warfare is "not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world" (Ephesians 6:12). Only by rejecting this false Zionism and embracing the Christ-centered prophecy of the Bible can we avoid being swept away by the coming storm that will soon overwhelm a world deceived by "spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world" (Revelation 16:14). In the West, a movement called Christian dominionism has gained unprecedented power. Its goal is not merely to influence society but to take direct control of government and impose its morality by law. Prominent dominionist figures have openly declared this a “religious war” that will “set the course of the future of the Middle East for a thousand years” millennial language that echoes the ambition to establish a global kingdom under ecclesiastical authority. Where we are now has a striking parallel with the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70. When Roman armies first surrounded the city, they withdrew, giving those who heeded Christ’s warning time to flee. The second siege brought destruction. Today, the first attempts at Sunday legislation in 1888 served as a warning. Now, with explicit plans for enforcement and the current pope pledging to complete what Leo XIII began, the final siege approaches. The Sabbath stands as the point of truth. Instituted at creation, observed by Christ, and embedded in the Ten Commandments, it represents acknowledgment of God as Creator and ultimate Authority. When human governments presume to alter it, the issue becomes not merely a day of worship but the fundamental question: whose authority will we obey? The coming crisis will force every person to choose between two kingdoms, the kingdom of God or the kingdoms of this world. No human effort can establish the millennial kingdom; only Christ’s return will do that. Those who place their trust in earthly institutions will find them crumbling. But those who trust in God, keep His commandments, and look for the soon return of their Savior will inherit the kingdom that shall never be destroyed. Gospel Angels Broadcasting urges all to study the Scriptures for themselves and prepare for the hour of decision.
