CREEPY TWINS!!ππΈοΈπ·οΈ
Happy Halloween everyone!!
I haven't drawn anything Halloween related since 2021. I missed drawing twins in these silly outfits!
Based both on my personal experience and their own discourses.
Muslims cannot fathom nor comprehend that God is our Father. To them, He is a Creator that purposely keeps His distance from us. He is a MASTER and we're His SLAVES, SERVANTS. As much as they insist that God is merciful and loves us more than a mother, there's always an invisible wall between God and humans that prevents a closer bond to develop.
Original sin doesn't exist in their dogma, so there's no need for a savior.
Following this, they also have difficulty understanding why God would become human to suffer like us, (lesser beings) and die a horrible death out of love for us. Again, this is due to their perception of a distant God.
Another main obstacle they face, is understanding the Three Persons: that He is a One, Triune God. They're quick to shut it down as shirk (idolatry). This is a problem by default, since their own prophet Mohammed didn't understand the Trinity to begin with.
Since they believe the Bible got corrupted over time, they don't bother to read and study it, despite "believing" in it. Rather, they lean on the Quran's recollection of the Holy Scriptures, since they believe to have the definitive and unaltered Word of God.
When they say they know and love Jesus, they mean they know and love the Jesus misinterpreted in the Quran, since they don't read the Bible (except to pick and choose something to try to disprove poorly).
In my POV, for born Muslims this error can be understood as invincible ignorance. For converts, it's proof that they're looking for an authentic, black and white kind of religion with God. Most of them had bad experiences or poor catechism in the past, and want a religion "with no intermediaries." (i.e. priests and the saints; but mostly the latter).
The problem? They rely on their own understanding of the Quran and Hadith, plus whatever their local Iman tells them. (Proverbs 3:5-6; Jeremiah 17:5, Ps. 146:3). So much about no intermediaries.
All this, to say:
Since the grace of God works beyond the Church, Jesus, in His love and mercy, starts appearing in their dreams after many signs of His authority go ignored by them out of fear.
It's interesting to me how Muslims can "debate" with priests, pastors, missionaries, etc. for years; yet they only humble themselves once Jesus starts touching them in ways they can understand and accept --dreams.
Once they have this experience, then they're open to know Jesus, or they convert on the spot.
I might return to this later to expand on it. Nevertheless, please be kind and compassionate to those with an aggressive style of dawah (the equivalent of "evangelization"). More often than not, there's something behind the anger. With that said, stay firm and brave--don't let them insult our creed. Pray silently for them, and move on.
