Book Reviews of From Jihad to Jesus: An Ex-militant's Journey of Faith

Book Review: Very Insightful
Summary: 5 Stars

"At that time, I thought I believed in God and he sanctioned hatred," writes the author of this amazing autobiography. At only 15 years old he was a militant in the Lebanese civil war. Rassamni very quickly moves on to better things to write about. His conversion to Christianity happens on page 27. From there the rest of the book is a great apologetic for Christianity and at the same time the best explanation of Islam that I have ever read. Some one who has been on both sides of the fence obviously should be listened to.

This book is very educational. It would make a very good refresher course for most Christians. Same goes for the other way. This book teaches all the differences of these two major religions.

"I can personally attest that God turns wolves into lambs, blasphemers into worshipers, and idolaters into believers by the power of His marvelous grace." It should also be noted that the Christians Jerry met at a Baptist Church in Houston after falling in love with a Christian named Jennifer, made all the difference in the world. He said he hadn't met Christians like them till moving to the United States. Joy peace, unconditional love and compassion for others. "These people lived there faith."

These are books people should buy and read. Gives you an understanding of how hard life can be for people you may not be interested in wanting to understand. At the same time it will bring you back to a greater awareness and appreciation for something we can be guilty of taking for granted. 5 stars for sure.


Summary of From Jihad to Jesus: An Ex-militant's Journey of Faith

What caused an ex-militant Muslim who fought Christians during the Lebanese Civil War to leave his baggage of hatred behind and learn to love his enemies?

AN EX-ISLAMIC MILITANT'S JOURNEY OF FAITH


Jerry Rassamni's story begins with his "physical Jihad" (physical struggle) against Christians during the bloody Lebanese  Civil War. After recounting his gripping early years, the narrative briskly shifts to Jerry's "personal Jihad" (spiritual struggle into enlightenment) as he attempted to refute the Bible. This book reveals the gripping evidence that led Jerry to abandon Islam and embrace Christ at his Lord and Savior.

While describing his search for the truth, Jerry exposes the pagan roots of the Muslim god and the feet of clay of its founder, while providing a careful apologetic for Christianity, Jerry shares the evidence the evidence that compelled him to abandon Islam and undrapes the "Five pillars" to expose the skeletons of Islam:

* Allah, is he the eternal God of the Bible?

* The Qur'an, it is the true word of God?

* The prophet Muhammad, was he a Biblical prophet?

* Man, is he born in fitrab (pure state)?

* Abadith (Muslim customs & beliefs), are they from God?
