Technorati“Many Muslims come to Jesus Christ through visions and dreams,” Azumah pointed out. “God is doing it.”
Though Muslim countries can deny missionaries from coming in, denying their visas, “the Holy Spirit does not need a visa,” he said, drawing the applause of the crowd.
“He goes where he wants to go,” he added. “If we pray with Muslims as our prayer topic, the Holy Spirit will go.”
In closing, Azumah urged Christians to step up in response to the challenge of Muslim evangelism; step out of their comfort zones, even their churches and denominations; and step into Muslim neighborhoods, Muslim countries, and the Muslim world.
According to statistics highlighted by Azumah, over 80 percent of Muslims have never heard the Gospel and less than 1 percent of the Christian missionary force works among Muslims.
The recent Inside-Out Conference, presented Aug. 14-16 by the Presbyterian Global Fellowship, was the third annual conference held in response to the decline of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) and the controversies that have kept the denomination embroiled in internal battles over the year.
It was the hope of a group of leaders to begin to change the culture of the church by being “inwardly strong and outwardly focused.”
According to Kelly Kannwisher, executive director of the Presbyterian Global Fellowship, the location of next year’s conference will likely be determined within the next 30 days.
