A great legend, Myles Munroe, had once said that the most difficult project to complete on earth is to change people’s minds. Because you believe something that doesn’t make it true. Even though it may be difficult to change people’s mind but it’s possible.
I was on the outreach today and shared a flyer with a Muslim, i tried to invite him to church services on Sunday, but he didn’t even give me the chance to speak with him. He said he is a Muslim and will never become a Christian. He was so radical and adamant. I told him that God had sent me to him because he knew he was a Muslim and wanted me to show him Christ, who is the way. And walked away angrily.
How can we help people with this kind of mindset? How can we change their minds?
Let me know what you think in the comments section below. God bless you.

As for the Great Commission, we know that we need to share the Gospel with the lost. For saving souls for Jesus is the most important job for Christians to do. However, we need to do it with tact, wisdom, and maturity. We need to witness to people when and in the manner the Lord expects us to. Because only He knows hearts and He knows who’s ready or not. So, we don’t want to do more harm than good.

This depends on our relationship with the unbeliever. If you simply meet a man on the street and recognize him as a muslim because of his clothes, inviting him to church is probably not the best way to begin. However, letting him know that God had directed you to him seems like a good opening… if he is open at all… to sit down over coffee and talk about Issa.
Most importantly is to develop a trusting friendship and discuss Issa and His place in the Bible vs the Koran. Many muslims do not even know the short book of the Koran, much less the collection of books we call the Bible. We need to lift up Jesus more than a church program, group or building.
We will never change a person’s mind or heart. Only he can change his own mind; only the Holy Ghost can change his heart.
Keep praying for your contacts and reaching out to whoever Father brings across your path, but first of all, LOVE them the way He does: enough to die for them.

Thank you for this wonderful contribution. I love the strategy you recommend, of course. Bringing them to Jesus should be a priority, not just church programmes. Your suggestion about Isaa discussion is on point. But we can subsequently invite them to church because there are pastors in the church who can preach to the word of God insightfully. There, they can grow or even get convinced the more and be established. Perhaps all people know how to preach.
Thanks for the overall insightful comment, and God bless you 🙏

Very brave of you to approach a Muslim and give him a word. I think its good for people to know that we are all born in sin and therefore separated from God and all truth, and that only Jesus who is sinless can reconcile us back to that wonderful kingdom of God. We are all prone to believe we are right as long as we are under satans rule… ie without Jesus in our lives and hearts. Even if he was adamant ‘not’ to hear…you still put a flea in his ear…pray God makes that seed grow.

May the Lord make it grow! Thanks to the Holy Spirit for boldness. I completely agree with you. JESUS is the one who draws men to himself, and we were all born as sinners. Thanks for your valuable comment, I accept my apologies for the late response. God bless you🙏
