From what i've seen, God is amazing. You remember that parable Jesus spoke of, the shepherd who went to get the sheep who was lost? Well, it's that times a zillion. Basically if you consider every possible time you've ever seen or heard of someone who ever did something to save someone, then multiply that by a trillion, and you're still not quite at what God can do to save people.
For a long time i pondered why, why he would go so far out of his way to save who seems to be lost. Even though i knew he could save a lost sinner from experience, God showed me that it was to reap the biggest harvest ever, because there's only one. He has been out there for every generation since Adam and Eve, doing everything he can to make sure that the greatest harvest with the greatest yield of humans saved from the knowledge of evil. He knows that each of us, every single unique one of us, is a unique image of Him, with unique and new input for the whole. Losing any one of us will end a unique image of God that will never be seen again.
God is the best farmer of all, because while he's farming he's fishing, and while he's fishing he's helping, and while he's helping he's leading, and while he's leading he's loving, and while he's loving he'll be the best friend you ever had!
I wish i could say more.. but like the matrix.. no one can be told... they have to see it for themselves..
What a great analogy. I’ve never thought of God as a farmer but now I understand what you mean. In this complex web God holds the entire map. I’m saving your post as a reminder, thanks!
But what caused this man to wake up is profound. It was in the Quran to seek answers in the Bible if they were still confused. Did you watch the video?
I have a friend in KSA who was once willing to die for Allah and all that. It was because of his decision to study the Quran seriously that he realized what a sham it is. The Quran challenges the reader by claiming that if the Quran wasn't true, it wouldn't be written so perfectly. It's actually written on a 5th grade level and has grammatical errors, he says. It's actually apparent that the Quran did not came all together at once but rather a collection of verses from a different times and places and events, and those verses came to Mohammed whenever he needed them (ie they were often made up whenever he needed excuses for his own immoral behavior). It is terribly written and there's no way that book came from God because it's chaos. The stories are just repeated in most chapters and they sounds like they were put there to fill in the blanks. The conversations are so badly organized that you don't know who is talking to whom. Then there is the issue of the earlier Meccan verses of peace and the later Medinan verses of hatred and intolerance that supercede the Meccan verses. These two categories are incompatible with with each other, yet it's claimed that the Quran is valid for all times and places, and that all of it applies to life until the end of time. That and the fact that although he believed that all the infidels would go to hell, how is it that their countries are always better off than his own? At first he was an atheist, but he knew God was real and so now he is a closeted Christian. I met him back in 2016, back when YouTube was free and we were both shitposting about Islam on some video and we began emailing each other.
God says His thoughts are higher than our thought and His ways higher than our ways. I don't suppose it would hurt His feelings much if we adopted what God thinks and how He does things.
The foundation of Islam is already quite questionable. An "archangel" pinned Mohammed down to force him to abide by his words. I'm not sure why no Muslims use discernment and question whether the spirit was actually good or not. They simply take at face value that it was good and holy instead of considering the possibility of a satanic nature. Mohammed was actually shook and thought negatively of the experience at first until his wife erroneously convinced him that it was archangel Gabriel.
If you look at how Muslims justify brutality, especially towards women and children, no way that can come from a good god.
Another thing to consider is that evil has difficulty creating things in the material world. Evil usually has to act upon deception (whispering in the ears of others) or by taking over a human vessel with their consent. Compare that to Jesus who is a literal manifestation via a virgin birth and created many miracles for people. To top it all off, he sacrificed himself too.
Here's a video about the concerns of this "archangel" if anyone is interested.

That was good preaching. There's so many ways to expand on this post. Thank you.
Many muslims have converted to Christianity. Its not new.

If only you knew how comfy things really are
