Hi, David Macrith here of the
Lions Roar. Now the story is told of a Bible
college, this was perhaps maybe 30 years ago, in England, where
the students were encouraged to go out and do open-air work
in the local city centre on a Saturday. They did this and during their
open-air work a certain tramp came up and began to heckle them
and to really push them. This had the effect of drawing
a crowd that they were able to preach to. Now, on Monday, the principal of the college questioned
them carefully about this open air witness that they had, and
they were very surprised to find that he had very detailed knowledge
of things that had gone on. They hadn't seen him anywhere.
It was only sometime later that they realized that it was the
principal himself who disguised himself as the tramp and gone
to heckle. Now, a single heckler can draw
a crowd, and although I don't like preaching with heckling,
at the same time, sometimes it's helpful. The following recording
shows you how one heckler can draw a crowd when you're preaching
the gospel, but also how it makes preaching the gospel harder.
I can only say that I pray that that message that was preached,
that short message that was preached then, would impact not only the
heckler, who's one of our regular hecklers at Speaker's Corner,
but also everybody else who heard. Another good thing you can hear
is there were more Christians there supporting the preaching
as well, and I wasn't the only preacher, and that wasn't the
only time I preached. I preached about five times in
total yesterday afternoon. hopefully this will give you
some idea. You know I can't video myself very easily, that's why
it's a sound recording, but I hope you find this helpful, and I
hope also that even this recording, now being put out online, will
lead to the salvation of sinners. On this I ask and pray in Jesus'
name. Amen. Amen. Now, you think about it. You
walk away from the Lord Jesus Christ. You walk away from the
love of God. Now, I've got a challenge for
you. You answer my question. You answer
my question. Listen to it before you answer. Where is the love in Islam? Where
is the love in Islam? My Bible tells me that God so
loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever
believes on Him, on Jesus Christ, the Son of God, shall not perish
but have everlasting life. That is love. The Bible says
it was not that we loved God, But that he loved us and gave
himself for us. Speaking about the Lord Jesus
Christ. That is love. It takes infinite
love to save a sinner. And we are all sinners. There is none righteous, no not
one. We are all together become corrupt. Their throat is an open tomb. Sir, your throat is an open tomb. Jesus Christ is the saviour of
the world. And he loved me. And gave himself for me. Listen, listen. I am the worst
of sinners. I am the chief of sinners. And if the Lord Jesus Christ
can love the chief of sinners, and the worst of sinners, he
can love me. But I noticed you didn't answer
my question. Listen to the question. OK, everybody else, this is the
question. Where is the love in Islam? Where is it? I don't see it. But you see in Jesus Christ,
I see all the love of God manifested. In the crucifixion of Jesus Christ,
who loved me and gave himself for me, I see all the love of
a holy God manifested on that cross to unworthy, undeserving
sinners. Now, we, all of us, deserve the
wrath and judgment of Almighty God. There is none righteous,
no not one. Let me ask you a question. Where is the forgiveness in Islam? You see, the problem with you
Muslims is you over-rate yourselves. You think you're good enough
for God, and you diminish God. You think He will stick to your
level. God is a holy God. God is the
eternal God. God is the one true and living
God, the creator of heaven and earth. And the holy angels, the
mightiest created beings. You have failed the test my friend. You have been weighed in the
balances and found wanting. You have already failed it. You are standing on the edge
of hellfire and damnation and your feet are in slippery places. Sooner or later their feet shall
slip. Jesus Christ is none other than
the eternal Son of God. He is the only Son of God. There is only one God. One Father,
Son and Holy Spirit. One God. Three persons within
the Godhead. God the Father. What's that about? I have no idea what that's about. I'm not associated with that.
That's a devil god from Muslim. I am here to preach Christ Jesus
and him crucified. okay so tell him it's time to
pray now where is the love Where is the love in Islam? I
find love in Jesus Christ. When I was lost, when I was the
sheep that went astray, when I was dead in my trespasses and
sins, as you are my friend, when my sins had separated me from
Almighty God, when I was on the edge of hell, when I deserved
the wrath of God for my sins, for my lies, for my idolatry. And you are an idolater, make
no mistake, you are an idolater. For my unbelief. If you deny that Jesus Christ
is the Son of God, my friend, You have the spirit of Antichrist. And the wrath of God. My Bible
says the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness
and unrighteousness of men. And this is ungodliness and unrighteousness. You see, if you reject the Son
of God, you have the spirit of Antichrist. And you must repent
of your sins and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. You have been weighed in the
balances and found wanting. We have all been weighed in the
balances and found wanting. There is none righteous, no not
one. Salvation is not by works. Islam tells you you can be saved
by your works. The Bible says by the works of
the law you cannot be justified. You need a saviour. And Satan
tells you that Jesus was never nailed to a cross and crucified. Satan is behind that. If Christ was never crucified
there would be no sacrifice for sin. And if Jesus be not resurrected,
then we are of all men, most of all. It is. Oh, I believe
in the crucifixion and in the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
of Jesus of Nazareth. He is not dead. He is risen. But I will ask the same question
again. As the crowd is bigger, I will
ask you the same question because nobody has an answer. Where is
the love in Islam? I do not see it. I do not find
it here when I speak to many Muslims here at Speaker's Corner. And I am here to tell you that
Christianity is about the love of God. The love of God that
took Jesus Christ to that cross, that saw him nailed there, that
kept him there when he was mocked and then said, come down from
the cross if you be the son of God. If Jesus Christ had come
down from that cross, no flesh could be saved. and when Jesus Christ was nailed
to that cross, he loved me and he gave himself for me. I believe
the Pope is the Antichrist of Scripture. I believe that we
can't be saved by works, it is by faith alone. Why do I believe
the Pope is the Antichrist? One of the reasons is because,
like Islam, he teaches justification by works. Faith and works. But my Bible tells me that the
blood of Jesus Christ, the blood of Jesus Christ, Cleanses from
all sin. You know what that means? It
means all my sin is forgiven. It means that I have peace with
God. Because I can't afford a jacket
any other colour. This is the only one I've got,
sir. You asked my answer. Now you answer my question, sir. Where is the love in Islam? He can't answer. He's upset about
my jacket because it's red. Well, my dear friends, as I said,
this is the only jacket I have suitable for the weather conditions
today. So that's why I'm wearing a red
jacket. But you answer my question. Where
is the love of God in Islam? Because in Jesus Christ, as a
Christian, I have been loved with all the love that comes
from Almighty God. It's not that God loved the lovely,
because we are not lovely. Our sins have separated us from
God. You are dead in your trespasses
and sins. And you must stand before a holy
God. Lying is sin. I've met lots of
people here who think nothing of lying. i don't know many muslims
think nothing of lying as well as many others swearing is sinful
jesus says out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks
romans says their throat is an open tomb when you swear you
dishonor god And when you dishonour God, you are guilty, you break
the law of God and you are worthy of hell, fire and damnation. You need to repent for your swearing. Jesus said, whoever looks at
a woman to lust after her in his heart, has committed adultery
with her in his heart. If that doesn't alarm you, my
friend, it alarms me because I know what's in my heart. It's
not just the sin of adultery. Jesus said they commit adultery
in their hearts. God looks at the heart. It's
our hearts that are wrong with God. Our hearts are full of sin
and wickedness and idolatry and lying and stealing. The Bible
talks about those who lie on their beds at night plotting
evil, plotting violence, plotting the downfall of others. Their
hearts are full of hatred and envy and bitterness and poison
and rebellion towards almighty God. Well God doesn't just look
at the exterior, he looks at the heart. And I'm always being
told by Muslims, if we do X, Y or Z, God will accept us. But
God looks at the heart, and if you are going to go to heaven,
you need a new heart. You need to be changed from the
name. You need to be born again. The
Bible says, Jesus says, in John's Gospel, chapter 3, you must be
born again. And except a man be born again
of the Spirit, he cannot see the Kingdom of God. Now I thank God I believe that
I am born again. My sins are forgiven. You can't say that. God is my
Father. You can't say that. Jesus Christ is the Saviour of
the world. For God so loved the world, that
he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him
should not perish, but have everlasting life. Now I must say this. Woe to England! Woe to the United Kingdom! Woe
to Parliament, woe to the government, woe to Keir Starmer for being
foolish enough to recognise the Palestinian state, to recognise
Hamas in other words. And I must say this because the
Bible tells me that in the last days God is going to bring all
nations against Jerusalem. And any nation that turns against
Israel will be dashed in pieces by almighty God. Woe to England
for recognizing Palestine. Repent, repent, repent and turn
back and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ before it is too
late. Hey, stop!
