Secret Church 16 – Session 7: What Do Muslims Believe?

About this sermon

In this session of Secret Church 16, Pastor David Platt teaches Christians what Muslims believe. Islam is the fastest-growing religion in the world today. The number of Muslims, which is currently 1.7 billion, is projected to equal the number of Christians by 2050. There are many common misconceptions about Muslims, including the idea that all Muslims are Arabs. A Muslim is someone who submits to God based on the teaching of Muhammad, Islam’s founder. Muslims follow the Qur’an, Islam’s most revered holy book, and they confess that Allah is the only God and that Muhammad is his prophet. This session also gives an overview of Islam’s five pillars, or foundational tenets, as well as its six basic beliefs. Finally, the urgent task of engaging Muslims with the gospel is discussed. Of the 2,317 Muslim people groups, a staggering 2,121 of them are unreached with the gospel. In this session, David Platt offers suggestions for sharing the gospel with Muslims, including questions to ask in order to transition into a gospel conversation.
