What happens when a Muslim changes his mind and decides to follow Y'shua? What do you think happens?
In some communities, people have the freedom to choose. In other communities, the convert is treated as having committed a serious crime. He might be excommunicated, imprisoned, or punished for this choice.
I recently met a family of refugees who left their home country because of their faith.
My recent reading, though, comes from a more spiritual angle. The convert felt peace, blessed for having a relationship with God. He said "the Gospel never ceases to overwhelm me". He continues to fellowship with the Muslims. He will fast with them this Ramaddan, but more with the hope of sharing love with them than to be seen as a Muslim because of what he is doing.
Can we then say that it is worth becoming a Christian in spite the difficulties and oppositions from one's family and peer group? Does the peaceful relationship with God compensate for this difficulty?
What about the hereafter? Is it worth giving it up for an eternity with God?
What do you believe? Why?
