The Rise of Islam or Just another Side road Away from True Salvation

January 19th, 2009

Question
Is the world wide rise of Islam something told about anywhere in Bible prophecy?

Answer
Jesus said that in the last days many false Christ’s and false prophets would appear around the world along with their spurious and ridiculous teachings. Mt 24:1f. The rise of Islam is only another part of the last days offering of other roads on the broad path to destruction. The popularity of Islam can only be fully appreciated by taking another look at the nature and purpose of the one who makes all the other roads available. Among the many names used for Satan in the Bible few of them show his nature better than, 1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant: because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Islam is not only a product of the arch deceiver but it is now roaring around the globe with its message of death and destruction.

Regardless of what deception is offered on the supper table of the devil, it is always a recipe for his ultimate purpose, destruction. One of the most naive and subtly destructive notions in the world is that Satan will use anything to deceive people, but must stop short of anything labeled or recognized as a religion. We make a distinction between cults, heresies, the occult, and recognized and old established religions of the world. The question is why. The truth is that Satan does not stop short of using religions to deceive people, but rather they are one of his major tools and devices to destroy the souls of men. He isn’t called the arch-deceiver by mistake. He uses any and all means at his disposal to bring down the souls of men, and carry them with him to hell, religions of the world notwithstanding.

Another book could be written on why Islam has nothing at all to do with the salvation of men. Fortunately for us since nine-eleven many good writers and teachers have undertaken to write such books. My best advice to anyone today is that they take the time to read a few of these revealing books.

Question
Isn’t there any safe place in the world, a country or an island of the sea where the rule of antichrist won’t reach?

Answer
No; there is no safe place in this world from the reach of the antichrist. Revelation 13:7 says he will rule every nation, tongue and tribe. Yet, there is one safe place to hide although it is not of this world and that is in the arms of the Lord Jesus Christ. John 10:28-29
