CULTS & COUNTERFEITS: ISLAM

Who do you say Jesus is? Is He simply a great prophet, or is He the Son of God who came to save us?

This week in Cults & Counterfeits, we explored the differences between Islamic teachings and what Scripture reveals about Jesus. While Islam honors Him as a prophet, the Bible reveals that Jesus is more than a messenger from God. He is the Son of God, and His death and resurrection are at the very center of the gospel.

Through the Cross Test, we asked three essential questions: Is the cross real? Is it finished? And is it enough? Because without the cross, we lose the very foundation of salvation.

“A gospel without a cross isn't good news. It's just good advice.”

Religion can leave us wondering whether we've done enough to earn God's acceptance. But the gospel points us to what Jesus has already accomplished. On the scales, you can only hope. At the cross, you can know. This message challenges us to understand what we believe, stand firm in God's Word, and approach Muslim friends and neighbors with genuine love. Rather than simply debating differences, we're called to point people to the real Jesus.

Because ultimately, this isn't just a question about Islam or Christianity. It's a question every person must answer for themselves: “Who do you say I am?” — Matthew 16:15
