As I was perusing the Orthosphere blog recently, I saw this amazing article referenced at Christianity Today. It seems that the Lord is bringing many German Muslims to Christ and He is beginning their conversion through visions of Jesus. I realize it seems far-fetched, but if you read what is happening, it will seem reminiscent of the conversion of Paul.
Allow me to quote from one portion. “According to Martens and others interviewed for this article, most of these appearances follow a pattern reported by converts throughout the Islamic world: Muslims see a figure of light, sometimes bearing the features of Christ, sometimes not. But they instantly know who he is. He always makes it clear that he is Jesus of the Bible, not Isa of the Qur’an, and he directs them to specific pastors, priests, congregations, or house churches, where they later hear the gospel.”
While I don’t believe we should expect the Lord to work that way normally, who can argue with people being directed to ministers who share the gospel and later be converted? If you doubt that God is still at work in the world, read the article and be encouraged.
