Intercede with Us for the Muslim World!

Jesus said, I am the way, I am the truth, I am the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. If you know me,
you will know my Father too. From now on you do know him and have seen him John !"#$%&, 'harif (i)le*.
The Holy Spirit is an angel. Jesus was a prophet. God could never marry and have a son. Christians worship three gods.
This is what Islam teachesand what blocks uslims !rom understanding God"s true character and en#oying a personal
relationship with Him. $et"s pray this week that Jesus would open their eyes to the truth o! the Triune God.%
