Testimony of Rabbi Simon Altaf
Testimony of Rabbi Simon Altaf
The LORD
is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
You thought this was ALL propaganda against Islam, no this is the truth, my story
is real and so am I. I love Muslims and do not hate them. This is not about
propaganda but true love. The Lord clearly revealed to me that I am from the
tribe of Levi; I was not counted all my life until my time came. My forefathers who
were from the House of Judah and Levi came out of Iran. Some of my family
settled in India purchasing large amounts of land and the rest remained in Iran
with whom we have lost contact after the partition in 1947 when my mother and
father had to leave to go to Pakistan. I was born in Lahore (Pakistan).
Meet Messianic Rabbi Simon Altaf who would have thought a journey that
started in Islam finished here. My prayer is May Yahushua (Jesus of
Nazareth) show the truth to you who are searching like I was searching for
the truth. For Simon's books click the link here

Here is how I found out Islam isnt the truth. I was born in Pakistan into a
Muslim family in Lahore in 1963. Most members of my family are devout
Muslims. I was brought up in the traditional way of studying the Quran, praying,
and doing good deeds. I would have happily stuck with being a Muslim had I
known it was the true way to heaven.
What then brought about the change in my life?
Firstly, like most Muslims, I was taught to recite the Quran in Arabic like a parrot
with little understanding of what was written in it. This always left me dissatisfied.
Most Muslim clerics will tell you that it is good to do this purely on the basis of
reading it in the pure language of Arabic to please God, which I found
unconvincing. When you study the Qur'an you will find that it has Hebrew and
Aramaic words in it despite the claims that it is pure Arabic and the Qur'an is not
in pure Arabic at all, but then again would God not understand English anymore
then Punjabi or Arabic?
The fact of the matter is that their thinking is seriously flawed in that you
should be able to read the Qur'an in your language of upbringing, and with
understanding what you are reading, to gain a better knowledge of your faith.
Obviously, if you did this, then you would find some things in the Quran that they
dont want you to know, which are rather unpalatable. Such things as what the
prophet of Islam Muhammad had done n his lifetime -- namely, marrying his
adopted sons wife after Zaid divorced her for the prophets pleasure; marrying a
nine year old, Aisha; allowing wives to be beaten by Muslim husbands, killing
those who rejected Islam such as the infidels, fighting Jihad against the
Christians and the Jews. These are just a few things, which the Quran
prescribes.
Sura 33.37": And when you said to him to whom Allah had shown favour
and to whom you had shown a favour: Keep your wife to yourself and be
careful of (your duty to) Allah; and you concealed in your soul what Allah
would bring to light, and you feared men, and Allah had a greater right that
you should fear Him. But when Zaid had accomplished his want of her,
(Allah orders Zaid to divorce her) we gave her to you as a wife, so that
there should be no difficulty for the believers in respect of the wives of
their adopted sons, when they have accomplished their want of them; and
Allah's command shall be performed.
Would the true God allow a woman to be divorced in such a way to be married
to a man claiming to be a prophet? To me this implies that God did not value
marriage and was asking a person to divorce his wife and this is exactly what the
above Sura says - that Allah knew that he wanted Muhammad to marry Zainab
and that could only have happened after the divorce, therefore destroying the
sanctity of marriage. However God in the Hebrew Bible says in Genesis
2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto
his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
In other words the God of the Bible designed women for men and for them to
be one unit and to love each other not to go divorcing each other.
The God of Israel in the Bible hates divorce:
Mal 2:16 For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting
away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the LORD of
hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit that ye deal not treacherously
Bukhari vol. 7, #64: "Narrated Aisha that the prophet wrote the marriage contract
with her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when
she was nine years old, and then she remained with him for nine years (i.e. till his
death)." Muhammad was 49 yrs old when he married Aisha and consummated
the marriage when he was 52yrs old.
Obviously these things would raise serious questions and doubts about an
alleged prophet of God!
These things were deeply disturbing to me and as I continued reading I
discovered more on how Muhammad lived his life, which is not what Muslims are
led to believe. I realized that we have two Muhammad's: the historical
Muhammad and the imagined Muhammad. The imagined Muhammad would
portray as good, righteous, highly esteemed, some great kind of guy, a prophet
ordained by God, etc., -- the one Muslims seek to worship, praise and adore. But
the real historical Muhammad who was nothing like the one the Muslims are
being taught about. The real Muhammad was at times very barbaric,
superstitious and evil in his ways. Yes, he may have started off with honesty but
ended up with depravity when he acquired more power. You may have heard of
the saying that power corrupts but absolute power corrupts absolutely, this was
true here as well.
For me, it was the inner self-consciousness looking and searching for
something missing in my life; like I was meant for something important to God
but what?
I had everything: education, success, car and a house, anything a person
could ask for -- but there was an inner emptiness that longed to be filled. There
was the sense of the divine purpose missing. My prayers for 10 years in deep
search for God and a relationship got me absolutely nowhere. At the end of it all
I felt no sense of belonging. Allah never answered my prayer.
I knew that my life was not meant to be like it was, and I knew I was meant to
be useful to God in some way. The two years prior to becoming born again, this
urge, or sense of knowing, became even stronger, but what or who was I
suppose to be and who was I suppose to lead? I certainly didnt envision politics
- although opportunities arose, but I refused to follow politics.
I used to pray, fast, give charity - but these religious acts did not give me the
peace I was searching for in my life. The reality was that Allah never spoke to
me but it was all in vain. It left me emotionally empty and spiritually dry.
I did not know God nor did I have any relationship with Him, and the proof of it
was that He never spoke to me even after praying to him to speak to me, he
never did! I felt rejected.
Before I became a believer, I never looked to follow a western based religion.
I have never in my life read the Bible, although our elders said they believed in all
the Old Testament scriptures, but we did not have an actual Old Testament
(Torah, prophets and Psalms) and New Testament (Injil) to read. To us,
Christianity was akin to the Western lifestyle -- one of extravagant selfishness
and self-abuse -- a religion I believed was nothing short of ignorance and
arrogance of people living a sinful life.
It is perceived in much of Islamic society that if you pray five times a day and
stick to the pillars of Islam then you are a good Muslim and anything you do or
say is true. We have a lot of hypocrites who have been following this path yet
their real lives reflect a total disregard for the good of humanity. However, I never
judged Islam based on how Muslims live their lives, but looked at Muhammad
and his claims directly: finding them empty and baseless and finding him not to
be a true, Godly prophet at all, but actually one the Bible would call a false
prophet leading people away from the truth and God. One could argue he was
sincere but he was sincerely wrong. If he was really sincere why did he not follow
the God of Christianity or Judaism? Christians and Jews did exist in Arabia but
they became enemies to Muhammad the Muslim prophet because they did not
believe in his claims.
Today, look at many of Pakistan's elite -- look at their background. They are
allegedly good Muslims, but they commit the worst offences known. Does
anybody question them? Of course not! If you did, then you might disappear
mysteriously. People's rights are suppressed; freedom is just a word without
meaning in Islamic countries. There is no real freedom because you can't speak
your mind. It is a myth to say we have democracy because there is no such
thing as true democracy in any Muslim state according to the Qur'an; this is a
meaningless word. I often wondered why is it that Muslims - though rich in many
Islamic states - are still unable to compete with the West. They have oil, money,
power and one day I finally realized the reason why they cannot compete with
the West when I read Genesis, the first book of the Bible.
Genesis 12:3 (KJV): And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse
him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be
blessed.
What this portion of scripture means is, the problem lies with them rejecting
Israel as a nation and even hating and persecuting the true Jews and Christians.
The Bible says they shall not prosper but be under a curse because they curse
the true children of Israel (Jews) and the Christians. As God promises, the curse
is reversed and actually falls upon them instead of the Jews/Christians (as it has
and will every nation or group of people who desire to persecute them). Israel is
God's chosen people to bring the truth to the world. God has not changed His
mind. Judah is His lawgiver.
Anyone who truly hungers to know who Jesus really was and is will come to
the full revelation (understanding) of the matter, and will not have to fear. The
Holy Spirit will make certain of it, if they desire in their heart to truly be pleasing to
God their Creator. This is in accordance with God's written word:
Deuteronomy 4:29 (KJV) reads: But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD
thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all
thy soul.
Remember, Jesus Christ was also a Jew and is still alive today in heaven.
The prophets of Israel wrote the Bible (under inspiration of the Holy Spirit).
Jesus Christ will establish rule and reign from Israel over all the earth when the
Father says it is time for His return. The city that God has chosen for His eternal
name and residence is Jerusalem that is where the third temple will be built for
the one true God and the whole world will come to know Him from this one place.
They will have to travel to Jerusalem to pay homage to the King and to learn His
Holy LAW.
Micah 4:2 (KJV) And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up
to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will
teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of
Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
When I looked at my Muslim background, and myself, I realized that most of
the Muslims preached to do good, but did they practice it themselves? Absolutely
not! When it came to money matters, money was more a priority to them than the
welfare of humanity or godly reasoning. On the one hand, they would tell you to
pray five times a day; and on the other hand there is hypocrisy everywhere in the
Muslim community.
Was it really opposite to religious teaching or was I wrong in what I had been
told by my elders?
When we look at Islam, Jihad is part of Islam in Muslim dominated countries;
persecution of Christians and the Jews is common, Muslims believe in visiting
shrines of Pirs (saints), giving money and food, it's like giving bribe to God. They
even persecute and kill their own (For example: the Shia Muslims, who they
claim are not Muslim, they kill them and they also kill the Ahmadis too), so why
should a Christian expect any better treatment by the Muslims who have been
indoctrinated to hate rather than to love, and their uttermost hate is for the Jews.
This is most unfortunate.
Muslims are driven by fear, where as we which choose to follow Jesus Christ
and are driven by love and the acceptance of different spiritual beliefs. However
the God of the Bible is a God of Love and He wants to reach you so you can
have a personal relationship with Him to be in His holy presence. Yahushua
(Jesus) is a God of love compassion and mercy, whilst Allah is a god of war, hate
and torture. I remember one of my brother-in-laws who solely started to practice
Islam and left his immoral life because he read a book about the punishment that
comes at the grave. He was so frightened that he started to pray five times a day
to avoid this. There is no love for God or mankind but just selfish desire to get to
heaven to drink the wine from rivers and have the seventy two hoors (Virgins with
big bosoms); the carnal lust that is waiting in the Muslim paradise - things that
God would never allow us to do on this earth but have the lust orgies in heaven
near His holy presence: These things make Islam both confusing and confused!
I asked myself: how could a holy God become so unholy, allowing the things
he forbids on earth?
They believe corruption in Pakistan was taught by the British Raj in India but
the reality is that people are greedy by nature. This has been going on since
centuries even before the British set foot on Indian soil.
I only needed to look at the founder of this cult to realize how misled the
Muslims are. You only have to look at Muhammads actions to know what fruits
he has produced. If we are following the true faith then it should put love into our
hearts, humility and care for fellow humans - not hate and contempt, and this is
exactly what Muhammad taught, the very founder of Islam, so we do not even
need to look at the followers but look at the founder himself.
Now look at Yahushua the Messiah (Jesus Christ), and what He taught and
you get a 440-volt shock when you look at Jesus life -- how pure and holy and
what love for fellow humans. If we are not striving to be like Him then something
is not quite right.
The Muslims give the argument: Can a billion and a half Muslims be wrong?
If they want to use numbers in an attempt to claim legitimacy, my answer is this:
Can four billion people be right who do not follow the God of the Bible? These
four billion people primarily Hindus, Buddhist, Atheists, Animists, and Agnostics,
which actually make up the largest population on earth. So can they be right? If
the answer is: Masses are always right! then should we not follow them as
they are in the majority and not the Muslim faith that is in the minority compared
to them?
The answer naturally leads to only one conclusion: that if four billion people
are not right then why should the one and a half billion Muslims be right because
neither 1.5 Billion nor four billion follow what God taught from the beginning of
the world: The way to heaven was always through obedience and faith, not
rituals or good works. Read the story of Abraham in the Bible.
1 Sam 15:22 (KJV) reads: Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in
burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD?
Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
People in Islam who have gone and done the Hajj think about themselves as
being very pious. They think their sins are forgiven. They think they are better
than any other person who hasn't been to Hajj and that they are like a newborn
child, but when I look at these peoples morals (most of them are so evil), they
cannot speak for justice. They show a completely different person from the
inside. This is not true for every Hajji, but a majority are like this, and again -- this
speaks to me about the fallen human nature. We are all sinners in need of
something (Some ONE) to save us from our sins, because our sin nature stays
with us until we die.
The wrath of God abides on all unrepentant sinners.
John 3:36 (Hidden-Truths Hebraic Scrolls) He that has belief on the Son has
everlasting life: and he that obeys not the Son shall not see life;1 but the wrath of Elohim
abides on him.
The Son of God, Yahushua (Jesus) was sent on a special mission to gather
the lost sheep of the House of Israel who became many gentile nations or
mingled with them. They are not Jews or part of Yahudah but part of the northern
ten tribes.
Mat 15:24 (KJV) But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost
sheep of the house of Israel.
Now most Muslims will make the excuse that the Islamic religion is good, but it
is individual Muslims who are bad (and not Islam), and that they dont practice
their religion properly.
Of course this can be said of every religion, including Christianity where many
also need to encounter Yahushua the Hebrew Jesus of the first century who kept
the seven feasts of Israel and did not ordain Christmas and Easter. He fully
observed the Torah which many Christians ignorantly and with wrong teachings
dont do and still think they have some kind of ticket into heaven.
I have personally met some people who are from Christian backgrounds and
their life I can honestly tell you is equally as bad as Muslims if not worst and they
are no better because they also lie and deceive each other. Their fruits are evil
they shun the law of God. In fact others who claimed to be born again also at
times shun it but only in ignorance and need to get the correct instructions from
the Bible and good knowledgeable teachers who believe the whole Bible and not
just in New Testament Christianity, which in my opinion makes many mistakes
about developing new doctrines that have no validity in the Torah. One such
doctrine is the rapture. There are others also.
However, when you look at Islamic history, you find out the real truth and that
it is really Arab imperialism. It comes from the heart of the religious teachings
from where else but Saudi Arabia, the spiritual heart of Islam, I believe, (as many
others do as well). Actions speak louder than words indeed and when we
examine the Qur'an we see that in fact these Muslims are good Muslims only
trying to follow the Qur'an, which does indeed say to make war against the
Christians and the Jews who refuse to become Muslims.

Most Bible scholars deliberately mistranslate both words to believe. But one word in the Greek Strongs
G4100 Pisteo; is about having belief and the next word is Greek Strongs G544 apitheo, which means to
obey or be obedient to. If you believe in the Son but disregard his Torah you are in serious trouble. The
time has now come for you to change your ways and be obedient. You should start with the weekly
Saturday Sabbath starting Friday sunset as the key witness, followed by the seven annual feasts and then
the kosher list of Leviticus 11. If you fail to obey the Son, He himself says in Matt 7:21-23 away from me
you evildoers or Torahless people which means loss of eternal life and a termination of your life in the world
to come.
most important truths found in Gods Word, the Bible. Search it out for yourself.
Dont take my word for it. If you truly want to know what God has to really say
about Himself, your sin condition, and the answer God has given you about your
sin nature and why it is going to lead you to hell at the grave if you dont accept
the answer God provided through the sacrificical and atoning death of the Master
Yahushua and not to forget to obey the Torah which many forget read it. You
can try to convince yourselves its all a lie, but can you prove it is a lie? Once
you die, what you believe had better be right, because if it isnt, it will be too late
and you are burning fuel in the lake of fire. I am not trying to scare you but you
will lose your precious life which could continue.
We have two different worlds two completely different teachings about truth.
In one world we have God himself in the flesh (See the book of: John Chapter
one, the entire Chapter), showing how we should lead our life and respond to
God and humanity. From the other world (which is nothing more than Satans
dominion), there is Muhammad manipulating people for his benefit, telling his
followers that if you fight and die then you will go to heaven; that if you loot and
pillage then you are forgiven and appeasing Allah the most merciful one. Yes I
admit Muhammad is Allahs prophet but Allah is not the one true God I have
come to worship and know.
In my quest for truth, I also learned that God's name is not Allah, but Yahuweh
(YWHW). The name Allah did exist before Muhammad, the pagans used it in
Arabia, and now we find this name even in the Arabic Bible. Yet the fact remains
that God's name that was plainly given to Moses was YHWH, which many of the
modern converted proselyte Jews (from Khazaria, these are not the true children
of Ysrael) even today do not utter, due to saying it incorrectly and afraid of the
punishment for profaning his most sacred name, personally I have to agree that
the name is sacred and needs to be protected. I agree with many things taught in
the synagogue.
So when the Jews write the most sacred name they only put two Hebrew yuds
together. It was in 2004 that the Master showed me my tribal idenity of being
from Lewi or the Levite clan. I later found out that my family came out of Persia
and we were living there, which is likely to be from the exile from Israel when our
people got taken there.
The Messiah taught to love your fellow humans, not kill them. He never
asked his followers to lift the sword or fight but that does not mean the Christians
do not fight wars of defence or have not made mistakes.
Of course, it is assumed followers of Yahushua realized that people within a
nation have a right to protect its citizens from serious harm, whether from within
or without, as do individuals when in life-threatening situations, but never
because of religious beliefs.
10
On the other hand Muhammad, prophet of the Muslims, asked his followers
to kill anyone who doesnt convert to Islam, or else take Jizzya tax from them, (as
an example), to humiliate the Christians and the Jews by imposing Jizzya, and to
subjugate them until they cry under the bondage.
Yes - many Muslims will tell you, Look at Christians! Arent they hypocrites?
Of course there are Christian hypocrites and I have met some of these myself but
do all Christians obey Yahushua and his teachings? No! Then are many of
them who are not serious, or devout followers of Yahushua at all, but Christians
in name only? Just because someone is born into a Christian family it does
not make him or her true disciples of the Messiah. To become a disciple today is
a choice that you must make. They must be obedient to the voice of Master
Yahushua and to be obedient to the Torah to be born of above and acquire the
New Birth which can only come from above through repentance of sin and
accepting Yahushua as your Saviour and King. They actually must obey Torah,
keep the Saturday Sabbath, the seven feasts like the Passover and Tabernacles
but as you know most dont even care.
In the gospel of John it is written like this:
John 8:31 (KJV) Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, "If you abide
in My word, you are My disciples indeed.
Abiding in my words is an idiomatic expression to keep the Torah of Moses
and that is how one becomes a disciple of the Messiah of Israel. Most are not
taught this truth in Christianity and are simply into monotonous Sunday worship
like robots, which can give nothing.
Being raised in a Christian home does not make one a Christian, nor does
reading the Bible daily or attending a Christian church or praying one hundred
times a day or even to wear the cross on your neck. One must be spiritually born
again as Yahushua spoke of this in John 3:3 and that can only happen when he
or she consciously makes a choice to admit they are a sinner as Scripture says
they are, repent of ones past sinful deeds. After this one must turn back to the
Torah and if you do not then you have no part with Israel in the future.
Even once a person does all that, it doesnt mean he or she suddenly never
sins anymore. Its a process of refining with the Holy Spirit to keep from sinning.
Some need much more help than others to stop sinning.
What people need to realize is that there are basically two kinds of Christians:
1) Those that realize God forgives them of their sins when they ask and trust Him
to yet keep on committing the same sin over and over when temptation arises,
and go back to God and keep asking for forgiveness yet keep committing the
same sin over and over, repeating the process;
11
2) Those who admit they sinned, ask God for forgiveness, which He grants, but
then become so sorrowful that they have offended God by their sin that they
begin to do everything they know of to not give in to that sin in the future. It
doesnt necessarily mean they wont if the right circumstances arise, but it does
show God they are serious about sin in their life, and Gods grants greater grace
to those who are sorrowful about their sin.
Of these two types of Christians, only God knows who truly means serious
business with Him, and those who dont. Yahushua says that you will know His
true disciples by their fruit, in other words Torah works. How you and I might
measure fruit and how God measures fruit in someones life may be vastly
different. Though we are to discern certain things in peoples lives, which
involves judging, we must always remember, we are not the final Judge, but God
the Creator is the final Judge but we certainly can judge earthly things and we
are suppose to judge to know right from wrong. The fruit that Yahushua spoke
about was not just everyday works but they were related to Torah works and
these were how you treat your fellow man, how you treat the elderly, how you
treat your parents, relatives, the poor and destitute in society, do you keep Gods
holy days such as the weekly Sabbath and the high holy days in the year. So
measuring fruit at least from Gods angle is never subjective but very objective.
A case in point when I came to faith in 17th September 1998 it was the month
of Tabernacles, the feast of Sukkot, which is a special feast that mainly the Jews
celebrate but many messianic believers of the Messiah have been celebrating
this now for the last 10 years too. We in messianic Judaism also celebrate this
feast why because Christmas was only three months away when I was saved
and I did not know what I was. My friend said to me you are a protestant
Christian but I knew that I was not Catholic and not protestant either as I had
nothing to protest about. In fact I had entered that believed in all of the Bible and
should really be called Messianic Judaism or Nazarene Judaism and that is what
I am.
I asked the Messiah since He spoke to me earlier to tell me that should I keep
Christmas and he said no. Then that next year I learnt how to keep the Passover
festival and it was a progression that took me deep into this new found faith.
I believe Christianity is becoming more apostate than before, because we are
in the end of days. You have bishops telling you that it is okay for men to lie with
men and that we do not believe in the divinity of Yahushua, or the resurrection of
Yahushua literally didnt happen. In (2004) serious conflict broke out in the
Church of England about a gay bishop being appointed. Hence this is the reason
why I do not practice Anglican or protestant Christianity but messianic Judaism
which is what Yahushua came to continue. He did not come to start a new
religion; many people need to learn this truth.
12
God says very clearly that He does not allow any place for homosexuality to
be recognized as an acceptable lifestyle, especially in Church leadership, of all
places! For readers of the Hebrew Bible, God ultimately brought severe
judgment upon Sodom and Gomorrah because of rampart homosexuality and
flagrant sexual promiscuity outside of marriage plus many indulgences in that
society of abusing the poor.
Who in their right mind thinks that God will tolerate the same things now
indefinitely? Numbers are growing inside and outside of Christianity that
homosexuality behavior is to not only be tolerated but also accepted, and
classified as normal. If five billion people say its Okay that does not mean
God will change His mind and say its Okay, Ill change my mind too. God let
Sodom and Gomorrah know what He thought about it, and it would have made
no difference to Him if there had been 100 billion people living in Sodom and
Gomorrah trying to justify their sinful sexual appetites and disobedience to Gods
Word unless they repented because God does not want to kill wicked people and
God gets no joy out of it. Note one thing that the judgment in Sodom was not
entirely for the sin of homosexuality but excesses in that society in other words
affluent people had forgotten not only God but also forgot to do justice any longer
that they were so depraved in their thinking.
God laid down commandments in the Torah to obey, not constantly disobey
and constantly ask His forgiveness for and follow the worlds way of bending the
truth to try to match our deceived and disobedient natures. We should follow our
Master Yahushua (Jesus Christ) and his teachings as he laid them down, he told
us both in idiomatic language and plain language to obey the Torah of Moses.
The question is are we?
He said, If you love me, then obey my commandments. [Not disobeying
them constantly and repetitiously asking forgiveness all the time]. And what were
the central commandments; he summed them up in two:
Matthew 22:37-40 (KJV): Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy
God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is
the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt
love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the
law and the prophets.
God isnt speaking of having sexual relations with ones neighbour either.
Thats not the kind of love He is referring to! Do you think that we can go on
sinning if we follow Yahushua/Jesus? The answer is No! If we follow God we
have to strive to live according to His commandments, but as humans we do and
will make mistakes and that is something that He changes in us slowly. This
process is known as sanctification. It is accomplished by the Holy Spirit, which
guides us day by day in how to walk in victory over sin. Our sin nature or evil
13
inclination is not just going to go away but we have to bring it under subjection
over time with persistent obedience to God, his Torah given to Musa.
If you decide to investigate the Quran, the many Hadiths (Muslim traditions)
and the Islamic history thoroughly and see what crimes Muhammad committed
against humanity, and how he forced his brutal customs on people -- subjected
them to death if they did not follow his man-made religion. How he had the
people against him murdered one by one like a modern mafia boss; read the
story of Asma bint Marwan. For instance, In Yathrib (Medina), Muhammad had a
number of people killed. One of them was `Asma' bint Marwan. Her crime was
that she spoke out against Muhammad for having another man murdered named
Abu Afak who was 120yrs old. Both of these people were Jewish and
Muhammad hated the Jews and the same pattern is being repeated in radical
Muslims today.
This clearly shows us the outright disregard his followers had for others. They
killed a mother who had five children. This identifies that the Muslim prophet
could not take criticism and that he was very intolerant of other peoples views
about himself. You can read about Asma Bint Marwan who she was murdered for
ridiculing Mohammed.
In my quest for truth, I decided to learn more about Islam and the way to
heaven, and it was when I was browsing a Muslim newsgroup that I came
across this testimony.
http://www.answering-islam.org/authors/abraham/testimony.html
At this point I only wanted to learn about Islam and still no thought had ever
occurred to me about changing my faith. However, I was interested in Judaism
to know how the Jews were able to attain salvation as Islam claimed that it came
as a message out from Judaism. While I was discussing with Timothy the
Muslim convert about Muhammad and the religion of Islam he obviously not
wanting to offend me would not answer me directly a yes or no answer but refer
me to other articles on the websites to read. At this point I was getting a little
frustrated that I said to God if you are out there then please speak to me. And it
was one day in my London office right next to St Pauls Cathedral that indeed
God spoke one afternoon and I heard his voice clear as a bell, all he said to me
was come and follow me. I thought to myself did I hear that voice or was that
me? I then retorted what about my family to the voice. The voice then echoed
again come and follow me. Later Yahushua told me your family is in my hands
do not worry. I said to him Master what shall I do? He said go build a website.
It was at this point that I went and acquired the material to put on the website
and it was through this website that a very prominent Muslim in Saudi Arabia
contacted me and came via London going to the US and he too became a
believer of the Messiah Yahushua.
14
As I read more about the Bible and Islam I was enlightened by what I read and
it confirmed my fears regarding Islam, of what I used to think. What will happen
to me if what I follow is not the truth? Would I go to hell? I didn't consider myself
to be a saint anyway, but surely we have to ask for forgiveness of our sins and
pray to God and do the works he commands us to be rescued. The reality
dawned on me that Islam did not have the truth that I so desired to follow.
I knew the prophet Muhammad preached to do good in the early stages of his
faith and to avoid evil, but what most people do not realise is that Muhammad
was married to a Christian woman called Khadija who was forty years old and he
was twenty-five. Even she was some type of denominational Christian alongside
her cousin and she later converted into Islam. What a travesty that instead of
leading him to the truth she goes off to the falsehood.
Standard of salvation
If God based His forgiveness on good deeds alone (earning our way into
heaven and the presence of a 100% holy God) then the Hindus also preach: do
good and so do the Buddhists. That would mean they are eligible for heaven as
much as Muslims or the Jews, but this was not in line with what God requires. He
requires us to be obedient to his Torah, come and recognise His Son
Jesus/Yahushua and then it is the Son who clothes us with His right-ruling as a
gift. We will never make 100% but He does it for us but we have to demonstrate
our walk by living and obeying the Torah and the rest of the Bible.
From the beginning of the Hebrew Bible to the end of the New Covenant
writings, God was consistent regarding sin and atonement. Innocent blood had
to be sacrificed from a healthy animal continuously in the Mosaic covenant for
Gods anger to be appeased against those who sinned. Yet all these sacrifices
had a hint and pointed to the one true Saviour to come, as all the previous
sacrifices were a foreshadowing of Yahushua. In the New Testament, or
Renewed Covenant, God provided a more excellent way for His anger to be
appeased against sinners for once and for all times; for their sins to be
completely forgiven; for sinners to spend eternity with him; for sinners to stand in
the presence of a holy, right-ruling and just God by being cloaked in His rightruling opposed to their own good works.
God provided the sacrifice of His very own blood through the death, burial
and resurrection of the Son of God, Yahushua, to qualify sinners to get right, be
right, and stay right with God. Because Yahushua never once sinned, that made
Him the supreme sacrifice to atone for every sinner born on planet Earth, which
every person born on planet Earth.
Yet the Qur'an denies that we all fall short of the glory of God.
15
Which is the right source of truth? The Quran, or the Holy Bible, the accepted
teachings of Hinduism, the teachings of the Buddhists? The list goes on an on.
Its obvious with all the choices to choose from (and of course the list keeps
growing), not all of these religious groups can be correct though I admit many
good people are Hindus, Buddhists and even some atheists may be classed as
good people.
Here again I feel to clarify something. The main theme of the demonically
inspired New Age movement is that everyones way to God and heaven is right
for them. No one has the right to say that what someone else believes is wrong
for them, because, for instance if killing thousands of innocent people is what
one believes pleases God and grants them eternity in heaven, then that belief is
right for you and you should have the right to believe it and practice your faith
(of course if you dont kill me in the practice of your belief!). By taking this
position, everyone is right in what they believe which then assumes no one is
really wrong. This is one of Satans age-old tactics: he strives to prevent and
pervert. Either prevent truth from being actually heard, or pervert it if he cant
stop it from being heard. He has many ways to pervert it. Both ways work
perfectly well for his cause(s).
Heres what made sense to me as I sought understanding about the sin nature
or our evil inclination that all humans have. I found my answer in the Bible:
Isaiah 64:6 (KJV): But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our
righteousness are as filthy menstrual rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and
our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
What the prophet Isaiah was saying is that doing good deeds is not good
enough for God, and it is actually like filthy menstrual rags to God. Why?
Because God the Creator is so holy, so righteous, so just there are no such
"good deeds" that will allow Him to forgive us as he requires blood atonement
with repentance of course. Saying it another way to help people understand: If
you did good deeds every minute of your life, all of those good deeds compared
to Gods demands to be holy as He is holy would be absolutely nothing more
than filthy menstrual rags fit only to burn in hell for eternity. Lets take it even
further, to help this truth sink in: if you did good deeds through all eternity, that
still would not be good enough to be in the presence of God, or qualify you for
heaven and spending eternity with Him and his holy angels and with saved,
forgiven, born again believers. The bottom line we must enter through Gods
prescribed way so then we have to look at the sacrifices of animals which were
really for God to see that we are obedient to His words. Since there is no
Temple standing in Jerusalem the only living Temple we have is Yahushua who
made one sacrifice for us on the Tree that we are set free forever.
Yet God never had intentions for humans to be eternally lost -- sent only to
spend hell for eternity because of the inability to be accepted and forgiven by
16
God. God had the perfect sacrifice to make it possible for mankind to be with
Him in heaven for eternity.
In the Hebrew Bible, the prophets spoke of a coming Messiah from heaven
that would qualify or enable them to enter the kingdom of God and spend eternity
with God. The Messiah was first spoken about in the Torah of Moses and even
the Renewed Covenant was made in the Torah in Deut 29:1. Subsequently, the
New Testament introduced that very Messiah to those waiting for Him. Some
believed this Yahushua was the long awaited Messiah, yet many did not as this
was also prophetic.
We are shown in Chapter one of the Book of John in the New Testament that
God came from heaven (albeit it in a disguised form to most at first) to earth in
the form of Yahushua, was tempted to sin like everyone else yet never sinned
once, shedding His innocent blood to take Gods wrath upon Himself for the sins
of every person ever born or will be born so that His shed innocent blood
would atone (or cover) our sins once and for all times, and would allow us in to
heaven guaranteed if we believe in Him and what He accomplished for us, and
follow His commands diligently. If you are confused about how can God send
God then please understand the Biblical God is a plurality e.g., the Father, the
Son and the Holy Spirit, which is God, has three distinct offices. Yahushua the
Son in the godhead is the Son of God
Something important for people to realize. Good works or good deeds are
impossible to save us from our sins and qualify us for heaven however we are
commanded to do works of the Torah to please our Father in haven so we must
to be fully in the Contracts with him irrespective of what others say or teach.
John 11:25 (KJV): Jesus/Yahushua said to her, "I am the resurrection and
the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies.
I was shocked at first like many are when they first are confronted with the
claims Yahushua made about Himself and truth. Because I was truly sincere in
wanting to have the pure truth to believe, I was forced to question if I had been
following a religion that is false most of my life until 35 at least, and if the Bible is
really the truth, then what do I do about it? This is when I heard the voice I spoke
about earlier.
I then decided to do some extensive research on both the Bible and the
Qur'an. My findings really shocked me and confirmed what I thought was the
truth. I checked both Christian and Muslims sources combined with Non-Muslim
and Non-Christian sources. It proved that the Bible had plenty of non-Christian
historical evidence, and internal evidence -- such as the fulfilled prophecies in the
past and present so accurately fulfilled that only God's fingerprints could do this,
not to mention the prophesies that will also come true in the future. How the God
17
of Israel and the Bible had preserved the true Jews those that you wont be
believe in America, Brazil, Africa and other places.
In fact it is Gods plan to gather all the 12 tribes because you may not know
that the ten of the tribes are non-Jewish and today mingled in with many gentile
nations are totally gentile.
Ezekiel 36:24 (KJV): For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you
out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.
Even prophet Jeremiah prophesied of this event:
Jeremiah 16:14-15 (KJV): He writes, " 'The days are coming,' declares
the Lord, when people will no longer say, "As surely as the Lord lives, Who
brought the Israelites up out of Egypt...", but they will say, "As surely as the Lord
lives, Who brought the Israelites up out of the Land of the North, and out of all
the other countries where He had banished them." For I will restore them to the
Land I gave their forefathers.'"
The prophet Isaiah prophesied 740 years before Yahushuas birth:
Isaiah 9:6-7 (KJV): For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the
government shall be upon his shoulders: and his name shall be called Wonderful,
Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
The prophet Isaiah clearly tells us who Yahushua is, that He is God.
Here is an even better translation of the above from the Hidden-Truths Hebraic
Scrolls;
Yeshayahu 9:6-7 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given: and the government
shall be upon his shoulder: and his name is called Counselor of Wonders, The Mighty El,
(The Power of powers or Strong Warrior) Witness of the Father, Ruler of The Shalom.
7 Of the Increase of his government and shalom there shall be no end, upon the
throne of Dawud, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and
with justice from henceforth even forever. The zeal of YHWH of Armies will perform this.
Isaiah 53:3 (KJV) also prophesied: He is despised and rejected of men; a man
of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him;
he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
In the above verses the prophet Isaiah tells that Yahushua will be despised and
rejected initially by the Jews whom were expecting the King Messiah and how
Yahushua would be afflicted for our sins and crucified to save mankind/Israel
from their sins.
18
Satan thought that he was going to humiliate Yahushua on the tree, but little
did he realize that Yahushua would defeat Satan forever by freeing us from
Satans control and give us eternal life and the free gift of the Holy Spirit to help
us in this life.
Muslims are ignorant of these facts and ask, How can Yahushua be God? I
have shown you some of the many verses in the Bible, which tell us why
Yahushua is God, and how He was crucified and then resurrected to go back to
heaven. People can come up with every excuse they want to not believe the
Bibles claims, but I can promise you one thing: They cannot prove they are right
in what they believe. I am willing even today (updated testimony 2013 July) to
debate any Muslim who has a problem with Yahushua being God.
My challenge is open that if I prove Yahushua is God then you will renounce your
faith and accept Him as King and Saviour and if you disprove me I will stop
practicing my faith. Are you up for the challenge? Bring your best I am ready
anytime of the day or night. You see you cannot change my experience because
it was real and I met the living Saviour and even heard him. Can I deny that
prominent Arab man who became saved out of Arabia from the family of the
Muslim prophet Muhammad by the website Yahushua asked me to create? Can I
deny that he saved my daughter as He said in 1998 and He saved her in 2003?
Can I deny Him when He said I have a great plan for you? No I cannot deny
these things. I have gone through many rough patches for my faith in Him. I have
lost not one but two marriages but its ok, I trust Him for my life. Both of my
marriages were lost for my faith and not because of my irresponsible behaviour.
One marriage for leaving Islam and another for proving that the Law of God is
true and still exists today. I dont pay lip service like others but do what is
required of me by God hence at times a strong stand has to be taken.
Sceptics demand proof that the claims of the Bible are true. Though God has
given all the proof He felt was necessary God basically says, You believe,
and Ill prove Myself and My Truth to you in a way that you will have peace
with. Disbelieve, and remain sceptical and separated from My Spirit, it
ultimately opens you up to perpetual deception and on-going spiritual
darkness. Until you are willing to change what you believe about Gods
claims in the Bible, you will never have true peace with the Creator.
It will always remain a false peace at best. Furthermore, none of us knows
when we are going to die unless we decide to take our own life. Though we may
be healthy, our heart can stop beating at any time. Are we prepared to stand
before God and attempt to convince Him that your Bible is a total lie and
deception, and not truth at all? As far as I am concerned one would have to be a
fool if that is the chance someone is willing to take. Many atheists and New
Agers stand in line to be judged unto condemnation for this exact act.
19
Muslims also make false accusations that the Bible is corrupt, but when you
look at the evidence for the Bible, this claim is found to be baseless and untrue.
In fact I have written two books on this subject showing the futility in such
claims. You will find that the Qur'an as a document has very little historical basis,
and that it is not even from its claimed period and it was totally lost. Even
though Muslims will never tell you this but indeed it was totally lost and rewritten
in the 9th century CE. If you do not believe me ask any Muslim to produce a
Quran from Muhammads time during 630 CE. You will not find even one Quran
from this period. The Hadith even tells us that some of the best memorisers of
the Quran were killed in battles that the early Muslims fought and the Hadith
attests that those Reciters and the portions of Quran that they had memorized
are forever lost.
Again I say there is no historical evidence to point to the Quran as the truth,
as the earliest manuscript of the Quran is from the 9th Century, although it was
collected and brought together in the 7th century (or about 640 CE) initially by
Abu-Bakar and later by the Caliph Uthman.
I found that Islam is not the truth and I was very disturbed by my findings.
The God of the Bible is a plurality however I would not term God a trinity but I
know people do while this may bring the uniqueness of God. He manifests
Himself in three distinct offices: The Father, The Son (or The Word as John
Chapter 1 records.), and the Holy Spirit not forgetting the seven Spirits of God
making God a unique being of several lights., but not the Unitarian God Allah
makes himself out to be.

Some Muslims even believe that Muhammad (prophet) has had his Sunni sect
forgiven from God and that after some punishment, they will all go to heaven.
They have decided this for themselves even though the Quran does not make
any such claims. Some commonly believe that if you have one of your children
recite the Quran and know all of it by memory to become a Hafiz then their
seven generations are forgiven and they will go to heaven. This is not true, once
again the Quran makes no such claims. Palestinians are indoctrinated that if
they send their children for suicide bombing missions to kill innocent Jews then
their whole family will go to be in heaven, the martyr himself will get 72 hoors
(virgins) times 70 for sexual pleasures and rivers of wine and milk. In fact the
Qur'an tells us that every Muslim must enter hell first and it gives no criteria for
being removed from hell whatsoever. The martyrs (Shahid) the Qur'an insists,
he goes to heaven without judgment. No wonder they are queuing up to be
slaughtered. This is Satanic deception not godly in anyway.
20
Sura 19:66-69. Man says: "What! When I am dead, shall I then be raised up
alive?" But does not man call to mind that We created him before out of
nothing?
So, by thy Lord, without doubt, We shall gather them together, and (also)
the Satans (with them); then shall We bring them forth on their knees round
about Hell; Then shall We certainly drag out from every sect all those who
were worst in obstinate rebellion against (Allah) Most Gracious.
Sura 19:71 mentioned not one will pass over it. All Muslims must enter
hell;
71. Not one of you, but will pass over it: this is, with thy Lord, a Decree
which must be accomplished.
In fact this is what Muhammad prophet of Islam had to say on this issue when
his disciples asked him about going to heaven in the Quran:
Sura 46:9 - I don't know what will happen with me or you so how can I tell
you if you will go to heaven or not.
I completed my research with an open mind. I checked if Muhammad was a
prophet prophesied by the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and also if the
Qur'an is the last revelation given to us by the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
I found neither to be the case and so rejected Islam and embraced Yahushua.
Even Muhammad did not know the true name of God is YHWH and never
spoke to God, as the one true God Yahuweh or Yahushua of Nazareth had
spoken personally to and through the prophets in the past. Muhammad had to
have Gabriel to allegedly intervene to receive spiritual revelation, something
Gods true prophets of the Bible never had to do. He even spoke to me so what
more can I say.
The struggle had begun inside of me; what was I to do? My belief that I had
held all this time had turned out to be a lie and false altogether, and the evidence
was so strong in convicting me that I couldnt help deny it. I thought to myself
that maybe I should remain as I am and not convert to Nazarene Judaism (true
Biblical Christianity), but not practice Islam either, as it is false.
Like many others who receive true revelation from God, at first I didnt want to
follow Jesus Christ, because I reasoned that if I change, then what will my family
think, and what about the Muslim community I live in?
I struggled with these thoughts and fears for a couple of weeks. There was an
inner battle inside me that said, Embrace the truth, and another one which said
Stick to the family values and what you were taught. I must confess I was more
21
concerned at first with what my family would think than whether I was following
truth or not.
Eventually the answer came. Embrace the truth whatever the cost, and this is
when I accepted Yahushua as my Saviour and Lord. It was a hard decision and I
had to sacrifice much to follow this truth.
AFTER THE CONVERSION, HOW HAVE I CHANGED?
My search for truth has come to an end, though I like others seek to
understand all I can about God and His Word. I feel an inner peace I never
experienced before and no more inner conflict. I no longer pray hollow prayers of
repetition, hoping it is impressing God. Now I commune with Him and talk with
Him. I know He is listening as He answers my prayers, He has given me much
understanding of last days prophecies of the Bible and I have written at least
three books on the subject that you can see here.
http://www.african-israel.com/Books/books.html
We must remember the prayers that are prayed according to His will, and His
Word is not violated or the whole counsel of His Word is not dismissed. I feel
better as a person towards others, and the filling of the Holy Spirit guides me in
my daily life, and keeps me in very close contact with my Creator. I know the
Holy Spirit resides inside me as scripture.
Obviously I want others to know the truth, but not all are interested in it. They
think what they and their forefathers have been following is the truth. Knowing
what I know, their paths will lead them to destruction but many of them wont
listen. According to the Bible these people walk in darkness and will not be
allowed to enter the kingdom to come, unless they follow the Lamb of God
Yahushua of Nazareth and seek to obey Him. They are walking in spiritual
darkness and really serve their father the devil and dont know it the same
father I served until I turned my life over to Yahushua and the true heavenly
Father.
These people will be separated from the presence of God, so it is not a case of
the Muslim doctrine that you get punished first and then go to heaven. You
simply do not go to heaven period, but will be punished and have no life
thereafter.
Tragically and sadly their rituals and customs and false beliefs will not take
them to heaven!
Yahushua gives us this insightful yet frightening statement of truth:
22
John 8:23-24: He said to them, "You are from beneath. I am from above.
You are of this world. I am not of this world. I said therefore to you that you
will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your
sins."
I am a Rabbi and have helped to build the first Nazarene Synagogue in
Pakistan and am working to enlighten people in the South-Eastern continent.
My Consequences of following the Messiah:
All my family turned against me at first, which included my wife who could not
understand why I had to change, but that was expected to happen as she did not
know any differently. I have explained my faith to them. In the end it is up to
them to receive or deny the truth I have offered them. I am sticking to my chosen
and truthful path, regardless of what anyone else does, and no matter how much
it hurt at the time I stuck to my guns. It is God I must please, not mankind.
Mankind cannot destroy my soul or determine my eternal destiny. Only God the
Creator and Judge of Israel has the right to do that. Though the cost has been
great to convert to my faith, I fully expect God to wipe away all my pain and
hardship once I get to the kingdom, as the Bible promises He will.
Maybe He even has some wonderful surprises in store before I get there. Ill
never quit praying for my family to receive truth, nor will I stop loving them. As I
write this update in November 2009 I lost my marriage four years after my faith, I
lost my house, my car everything went. I was broken hearted not because I lost
my belongings but because my family would not understand that I only wanted to
follow YHWH the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. This was my crime.
I lost my marriage, got slandered and was called all sorts of evil and demon
possessed, I realised that this was not a world ready to listen to God and if
nothing else through this experience I learnt real humility and then God gave me
the greatest project ever to translate the Bible into the Hebrew roots from
Hebrew/Aramaic/Greek to English and then three other South-Asian languages. I
am a privileged man and I know that God honoured me because I honoured him
in the face of relatives who refused to believe me. As indicated he showed me
my true tribal lineage of being from the House of Lewi who are His priests
forever.
I know many good heroes of the bible were slandered, abused at times put into
prison and even killed but they never lost hope and likewise I will never lose
hope. My Master Yahushua was also called demon possessed but we must
push on in our faith.
Matthew 11:18 (KJV) For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say,
He hath a devil. 19 The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say,
23
24
continue to live with right-ruling lives helping others see truth while the ungodly
ones continue to rail against Gods holy laws.
When Joseph was fallen in the pit did he lose all hope thinking God has made
wonderful promises to me but what am I doing in the pit fighting for my life?
Gods promises did indeed come true for him and so they will for me and for You.
Amein.
Yes it happens to the best and worst of us its no coincidence that many
Christians also live in denial of Gods truth. I know that God has a wonderful plan
for me because He told me so and I will believe in Him no matter how cruel
various people are to me. I will not fall as long as He has His hand on me. Praise
His Holy Name.
He raised me from the Dead when I was in deep sins what could be a better
miracle?
I tell the gospel, the Besorah which is the Torah, to all the Muslims I meet so
they can know of the truth, which is the Lord Jesus Christ (Yahushua of
Nazareth), and the Holy Scriptures: THE BIBLE. I have a few websites, which
you can read with some of my more extensive research.
www.african-israel.com
I pray for all the Muslims that they come to know the one true God that loves
them all - so they don't perish in their deception. Muslims are some of the most
dedicated and devout people there are and I really do love them. Yet being
dedicated and devout to a false religion will no more keep one out of hell for
eternity than will a billion dollars buy one eternity in heaven. In fact, all the
money in the world will not buy eternity in heaven, nor will any other religious
beliefs. Once people come to the full revelation of the truth, which is that God
became a man and died on the Cross/tree to pay the penalty for all their sin, they
too will realize the supreme sacrifice God made of Himself to secure this eternal
salvation for them was the greatest act of love God could demonstrate to all His
Creation.
And no, it was not Mohammad who died for their sins. It was the Word of God
-- our Master Yahushua, and Hes not in the grave. He is seated on the right
hand of God the Father in heaven, where He was seated from always before.
Because God always was and will be. In fact the name has always been
Yahuweh or Yud, Heh Wah and Heh for YHWH. And some of the best news is
that this same Yahushua who resurrected from the grave three days after His
burial is coming back to earth to establish His full control of it one day. What a
glorious time that will be! To make a note Yahushua/Jesus is coming back to
Jerusalem to the beautiful City to establish his kingdom on earth, this will be an
25
intense time of trouble when the whole Islamic world will be trying to destroy
Israel.
When this happens the false Jews will be removed Rev 2:9 and true Jews the
people of colour brought back to the land.
He will defeat the whole Muslim army annihilating them in Jerusalem (Zech 14:14-Zec 12:1-4). This is the Muslim reality that they do not realise.
The greatest pain we can put in the heart of God is refuse to accept this
supreme act of love that He gave to humanity for giving Himself on the tree
when He didnt even have to. Muslims must be told the real truth about the
Messiah and they are so close as they already believe many Torah truths. They
have been told so many lies about the Bible, and God is asking people like
myself to do everything we can do to help them realize they have been lied to by
the father of all lies Satan - so they will be without excuse on the Judgment Day
why they refused to accept the truth from Gods Word, the Holy Bible.
Everyday the Holy Spirit gives me more and more knowledge and
understanding (revelation of truth) from the Bible and what God means by the
words written in it. I have had many debates on/off the Internet with fellow
Muslims. They cannot answer my questions, and they try to constantly attack the
Bible, but I can prove time and time again the authenticity of the Bible through
historical evidence and Biblical evidence. I take no personal credit for this and
give thanks to Yahuweh that His Spirit helps me in this manner, as I strive to be
the best Ambassador for Yahushua - that I can be, while Im still able.
You are welcome to e-mail me: [email protected]. I will try to answer
any questions people have as I find time to do so. I wont waste time arguing,
but I will try to help anyone who is sincere about wanting to know the pure truth
and the real Israelite faith and its true people who got taken into transatlantic
slavery.
God has done many miracles through me but I cannot detail them here because I
feel I have written enough already but I will detail one small event.
Recently in 2009 a Christian friend came to me that he had a court case against
him since five years and he could not see himself winning and he was aggrieved
because the case was filed by a Christian woman he had helped but she repaid
him by accusing him of things he had not done. He asked that I pray for him that
he be relieved of this case and be freed without guilt. I indeed spread my Tallit to
the God of Israel and prayed and told him Go, the God of Israel has heard your
cry and your case will be in your favour. I realised I was a Lewite and God
heard us as he has an eternal contract with us since he called me back (Mal 2:46)
26
He court date came in the UK and he went to court and the judge dismissed
the entire case in his favour.
Praise God.
He was so happy that he came back to me one day before his driving test and
said please Simon pray for my driving test I have failed six times already. I laid
my Tallit before God and beseeched the God of Israel for favour for him to pass
his test and God told me he will pass. I told him so. The next day he passed his
test. These are just some of the things that have happened in the year 2009 and
many others before this, remember I told you God chose me and his calling for
me is irrevocable, he hears my prayers and my requests, he is an amazing God
and has given me amazing grace and favour. I love him so much that sometimes
I really forget all my pain in his immense love for me.
My prayer for you is that you settle for nothing less than discovering the pure
truth.
What you choose to believe before you die will determine what God does with
your soul and spirit after you die. God promises you in the Bible what will
happen to your soul and spirit after you die if you really care to know. Hes not
really keeping it a secret. Its there for you to hear or read.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read what I have written. If it helps
one person find real truth it will have been worth the time for me to write this.
If no one finds truth through it, even that doesnt matter. After all once you
discover the truth Ive discovered, you just cant keep quiet about it! You have to
tell every living being about it!
I have changed my name from Mohammed to Simon after my conversion as
most Muslims I dialogue with were complaining that I should not use Mohammed
as a name since I have rejected Mohammed who is their prophet. I agreed with
them that that was true, I need not use that name.
Editors Note: Brother Simon has written a powerful book exposing
Islam and we would like to encourage you to obtain a copy.
http://www.african-israel.com
He has also written a book to help Christians to witness to Muslims and
their objections called "Yeshua or Isa, True Path for Salvation" and another
one Dear Muslim - Meet YHWH the God of Abraham.
