Christ Among Muslims by Chad Roberts
There are no sweeter words for a missionary than, "I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also" Luke 15:16.

And certainly, there are no sweeter words for the Muslim than Romans 15:21, "Those who have never been told him will see, and those who have never heard will understand." Oh the joy of seeing Christ among Muslims!

Why the Christian Church grew so rapidly by Robert Randle
What is lacking today in spreading the Gospel message is a lack of urgency.

The Anointed Prodigals by Bola Olu-Jordan
Just like the prodigal son collected his inheritance from his father prematuredly and wasted by being generous to strangers with it, so also many servants of God today are forcefully collecting gifts from the Father and distributing it to strangers in the faith who are only interested in the benefit they can get from God, but not willing to serve him.

Many Pastors today specialize in the distribution of such miracles. At the end of time, Jesus will tell them I know you not you that works iniquity. The iniquity is collecting what rightfully belongs to him at an inappropriate time for selfish reasons not approved by the father
