Seventh-day Adventist pastor Dwight Nelson shared 2 sermons in the Fall of 2006 at Pioneer Memorial Church on the campus of Andrews University that messed with my head.He highlighted how Genesis 16 is the first time in the Bible where "the angel of the LORD" shows up in person [verse 7]. Used interchangeably for Jesus in the Scriptures [verse 13], this means that Jesus shows up first not to Isaac but to Ishmael to name and bless the father of all modern day Arabs promising to make his nation great.
Quoting the book by Stephen Dickie above, Nelson traces the history of Islam and "The Children of the East" all the way through the Bible leading the listener to some startling conclusions about how God used Islam in the past and how God just might be using them in the present.
What if the "Children of the East" aren't all fanatic terrorists? Does God love the 1.4 billion Muslims in the world too? Does the Biblical book of Revelation chapters 8-11 reveal a secret about God's forgotten blessing on the prophetic rise of Islam too many Christians are quick to criticize?
Listen to each of Pastor Dwight's sermons entitled "Rumors From The East: Star Rising Over Islam" [SEPT 30, 2006] and "Wisemen From The East: Star Still Rising Over Islam" [DEC 2, 2006] by clicking either of the graphics above or by visiting his website: www.pmchurch.tvFYI, the book "Islam: God's Forgotten Blessing" is only available by request with a money order for $13 shipping included by writing to: Strawberry Meadow Association, PO Box 385, Kasson, MN 55944
