Intercede with Us for the Muslim World!

Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for Gods wrath remains on him
(John 3:36, N!"#
Muslims grapple with and cannot accept the idea that Jesus is the Son of God, for, they say, how can the one, holy God
procreate? Nor can they accept that Jesus is God, made man to save us. Satan has blinded their eyes on this most key
concept and effectively prevented them from believing in the Son. et!s pray this week that God!s Spirit will open blind eyes
to the truth so that they may find eternal life."
