LUR - 9-12-26 - April EP9

0:00Welcome to Let Us Reason, a Christian Muslim dialogue with host, Al Fadi. Let us Reason is a unique show utilizing theology, apologetics and evangelism to reach Muslims for Christ by comparing and contrasting Christian and Muslim doctrines. And now your host, Al Fadi. Well, hello everyone, this is Al Fadi and I want to welcome you back to a continuation of our cultural apologetic series with Sister Laura. And of course, we've talked so far about a very important topic that socialism. Today we're going to talk about the radicalization of young women, Western women or at least women in the West. Let's put it this way. And what is the chief cause behind this?

1:03As I mentioned with us here in studio remotely, Sister Laura Z. Well, Sister Laura, thank you so much again for the coverage of socialism and how you highlighted to our viewers the biblical principles when it comes to economy and money and finances in general. Now we're going to turn into another hot topic also in a Western culture at least that the by the way, even in the East, the West is always accused that it modernizes women in the East and they export thoughts and ideas that are not sound ideas in line with the culture. But you want to focus now on why are women in the West who have all the freedom they have and all the resources they have under their fingertip to to be able to research and compare and contrast are becoming so radicalized to the point that they're accepting things that are illogical. What do you think caused behind this?

2:03Right. Well, I think it's worth pointing out that first of all studies have been consistently showing that young women and especially young single women are on board with the most radical policies of the leftist party. And so we have to ask, like you said, what is what is causing that? And in some, I'll give you an idea of just some of the a few of the policies that that young women are supporting that seem in very very much in opposition to what women have traditionally supported in the past. They are very much on board with the killing of unborn babies all the way up through birth with the mutilation of young people in the name of trying to make them into opposite sex than what they are and calling it gender affirming care. The creation and purchase of designer babies as if they're commodities for anyone to

3:08buy, buy children now and choose their sex and choose their eye color and whatever. So and sell them to whoever wants to buy them as opposed to adoption where it's entirely child centered. The child's parents are already out of the picture for whatever reasons. And so you need to find the children the best place for the children's needs. IVF does the opposite. It finds the best children for the adults who can pay according to their wants, their desires. The young women are largely supporting the release of criminals out into the streets, of open borders, things like this. And recently women were the, I think the key demographics, certainly A key demographic in electing an Islamic socialist as the mayor of New York City. So yeah, what is causing this? I've done a lot of reading and research on this and there are several things that I think

4:14are contributing. And then one of them is that as unpopular as it is to say this, women tend to be more susceptible to drawing conclusions from based on our feelings rather than based on the facts or the studies or what actually does good. And the left has done an outstanding job of marketing their bad ideas by appealing to emotions. So again, just like they sell socialism as compassion, they also sell the release of criminals out on the streets as compassion and open borders and no punishment and defund the police and get rid of even prisons. And if people who steal things from stores have darker skin, then well, that's justice because they're getting what was stolen from them by the white man and it's sold as justice. They sell anarchy as mercy.

5:16And so this type of being susceptible to believing our emotions or feelings as opposed to what actually leads to human flourishing based on statistics, studies, reality, I think is playing into the radicalization of women. Women also tend to have bought into critical theory and critical race theory is one example of this. So basically individuals are grouped based on their skin tone, their sex, their sexual preference, their gender identity, whether they identify as the gender that they are or not. And their religion. And if a person belongs to a group that has been successful historically, then they're labeled, the individual is labeled as an oppressor. And anyone who's in a group that's been historically discriminated against is oppressed.

6:22Right, exactly. And so everything we need to know about a person is determined by immutable characteristics basically and their sexuality, who they want to have sex with. Regardless of their character otherwise. And so this worldview eliminates the complexity inherent in relating to people well and creating good public policy. And I think it allows women to feel like they're fighting for something important and valuable and bigger than themselves, but without understanding the individuals involved, the situations involved and the historical outcomes from policies that they're advocating for. Along those lines, young women seem to have bought largely into the victim mentality. It goes along a lot with the critical theories that says, you know, basically everyone is to blame for everything they don't like. And so that's sort of a natural result of a feelings based orientation and the critical

7:29theories, like I said. But if something is someone else's fault, then the proper response is to yell and scream at them or treat them poorly the way you think they've treated others poorly in the past. And that's exactly what we're seeing from young women. And that's what we're seeing from the radical left as well, just generally speaking. So I think that that feelings orientation is a big part of it. I also think and have seen women tend to be relationship oriented and nurturing. And these are excellent qualities. These are great. I mean, God is relationship oriented and nurturing as well. And that's part of our Amago Day. But it also makes women more susceptible to a kind of toxic empathy that basically throws out the window, all discipline, firmness, difficult decisions, concerns about dangers

8:35and liability and things like that. And so this nurturing quality that says, let's just all get along. Let's trust each other and assume the best of one another and all get along and all share everything freely with one another. That is a great characteristic to have in the home with your children and close family members and friends who you know are trustworthy. But that is not a great characteristic for making immigration policy, for making policy on crime and punishment or for creating the national budget. So I think that is a big part of it. And I would add to that that women have and men, not just women, but women certainly have been miseducated for about 50 years now. I think the public school systems are largely to blame for a lot of this and parents being

9:38absent and not knowing what their children are being taught in school is a big part of this as well. But there are, there is a lot of socialism and in our public school systems, there is a lot of don't judge and which is not biblical by the way. That would be a whole other episode. But we are told repeatedly to judge well and to judge wisely. And the whole Jesus saying, you know, not to judge was actually him teaching how to judge well as opposed to how to judge poorly. But women especially have are more likely to major in the liberal arts studies which tend to lend themselves more toward false ideologies because they are more about ideas, less about outcomes. If you don't, you know, if you can, if women, women tend to be drawn toward fields like

10:41teaching and social work and nonprofit work and administration where their false worldviews are less likely to be challenged by both by other people and by the realities of the world in which they live. And so I'll mention one more one if we've got time. Oh, yeah, please go ahead. What? But I think it's actually a big problem as well that many young women today have been given everything in life without having to earn it. I think it's come from good intentions of parents wanting to give their children everything. But in a lot of cases, this has has led women to believe that life should be easy. It should be easy for everyone all the time. I think it's led us to believe that utopia is within reach. We really can make a utopia here on this earth. We don't need to wait until the next earth. We don't actually have to live in a fallen world now.

11:44And I think it's also led to the idea that if someone else doesn't have as much as I have, well, then it should just be given to them. Just like everything was given to me. Why wasn't everything given to her or to him? And if you ask, well, how should we give everybody else as much as you've been given? And the answer tends to be, we'll just take it from those rich people who have more than I have without an understanding of economics and how things actually work. And what happens when you disincentivize innovation and risk taking and hard work and treating customers well and all of that that has made most wealthy people in the West wealthy. So we really need to get away from all of these different grievance studies majors in universities from public schools, teaching kids to love socialism, thinking it's compassionate from

12:47the time their little kids teaching them that they can be literally whatever they want, even if they're a girl, they can be a boy and vice versa. And young people really need to be educated in basic economics, absolutely critical. They need to be educated in the history of socialism and its outcomes. They need to be educated in the US Constitution and why it's absolutely brilliant. They need to be educated in Christian theology and apologetics, not only knowing what we believe, but why we believe it. And how it is that the Christian worldview tends to lead toward human flourishing while getting away from the Christian worldview tends to lead toward human destruction. And we need to be teaching people practical, marketable skills and encouraging them to go out and see how the real world actually works and not just insulating them from that, allowing them to stay in academia their entire lives or in social work or other fields

13:53where there really are no consequences for them particularly for having a false worldview. So what that looks like would have to vary, but I think young people need some sort of job experience probably when they're in high school and they need these important subjects about how the world actually works. First time guests on our show, but I've been really impressed by the work that she's been doing and the Lord just put her in my heart to reach out to her and just be bold enough to ask, will you be willing to be on my show and praise the Lord that she accepted we're talking about? Sister Christine Dark and I will let her of course do more introduction about herself in her ministry, but the show that we will be covering today and possibly in a second part has to do with miracles among Muslims and it's really, we named it after her book, the Jesus visions, miracles among Muslims and I will allow her also to elaborate further

14:57on that. But first let us introduce our guest, you know, sister Christine, sister Christine. Welcome and thank you so much for accepting our invitation. We're honored by it. Oh, Alphani, I'm so honored to be with you today and I'm very excited to share about the move of the Holy Spirit amongst the Muslim people. Amen. So, you know, we're going to talk about, you know, miracles among Muslims and of course your book is titled that way. Tell us a little bit more about when did you feel the calling of course to just work among Muslims and go to Islamic nations and when did you feel that? I mean, I hate to say it Christine, but I mean a lot of Christians sometimes there are hesitant to work with Muslims that like they're afraid, they're confused about the Muslims, they don't want to associate with them sometimes out of fear of offending the Muslims and the list can go on and on and on. Well, I'm the daughter of a pre-Spriterian minister who brought me up to love and venerate

16:03the Jewish people. So, I've always loved the Jewish people and God called me to them and God called me to the nation of Israel. But to my surprise when I arrived in Israel hoping to see all the visual saved, God enlarged my heart, Alphani, for the Muslim people and for the Arabs and he gave me a real love, not only for the Jewish people, but equal love for the Arab people. This ministry is a glorious ministry that God has given me because it's very unusual. Usually when somebody is called to Israel, they, as you say, have sort of the fear of the Muslims or if someone is called to the Muslim people, they don't necessarily gravitate towards Jewish people. But God gave me a love for them all and I worked for a number of years with a great evangelist of blessed memory, Reinhard Baka. And he used to have a saying that harvest time in the kingdom, meaning the harvest of

17:07souls, people who get saved, is a set time. And so I was hoping to see the harvest of the Jewish people. But actually right now, it's the harvest time for the Muslim people. And so while there was an Israel, God supernatural through the divine agencies of dreams envisioned, turned up doors for me to hold evangelistic meetings amongst the Muslims and low of behold, they were hungry, they were open, they received salvation, they received healings. And I said, my goodness, we must not waste this harvest. The harvest of Israel of the Jewish people is happening, but we'll come later during the great tribulation actually. Right now, the Holy Spirit is moving as Joel 2.28 in the Hebrew Bible prophesied through dreams and visions in his time for the Muslims to receive the Savior. And so that's why I entered into that harvest field.

18:11And for many years, I collected stories of salvation of Muslims and dreams and visions that they've had. And I collected them together in that book that you graciously mentioned, the Jesus visions, miracles among Muslims, which has been in a third edition. I think right now it's out of print, but it's available on Amazon as an ebook. So all of that information is there. And as far as I know, Al Fati, this was the first book ever written in this genre about this amazing move of the Holy Spirit through dreams and visions with the Muslims. There have been several other books since mine was published, but this as far as I know is the first and there are stories in there that will encourage every believer not to be afraid to love the Muslim people because they are so spiritually hungry and ready to be prayed for.

19:11But we must be bold as an alliance and ask our Muslim friends, have you had a dream about Jesus? And you'll be surprised how many will say yes, but they need an evangelist in their life to explain the meaning of the dreams often and the clues that God gives in the dreams about Jesus the Messiah. Amen. Amen. Do you want to walk us through some of these stories in your book if that would be appropriate or would you like to share any other stories outside of that too? But people can see the book cover every now and then during the show as well. But go ahead. All right. Well, I call myself an evangelist of the empty tomb in Jerusalem because the tomb of the Lord is empty. All of the prophets are still in their grave, but we serve a risen Lord. He said, I am the resurrection and the life. And that's what makes him so unique.

20:13And so this journey that I went on to tell the Muslim people and the Jewish people about Messiah has many beginnings in it. And I believe that God's MO, his modus operandi, is often with dreams and visions. For example, one of my earliest childhood memories, which I mentioned in my book, is that I myself had a visitation from the Lord. I have seen the Lord. I can say with Mary Magdalene, I have seen the risen Lord. I was a very sick child. I had rheumatic fever. I was losing all of my hair. And my parents said that I was dying. But Jesus appeared to me as a middle eastern man, not as a blonde, blue eyed Jesus of Sunday school portraits. But he appeared and he came to my crib. I even remember still being in my baby crib.

21:14That's how early this vision was. But it's burned in my memory that he was a middle eastern man. He healed me and he was wearing a white and green robe, just like the robe that he wore. When later on in my ministry, he appeared corporately, simultaneously to 21 Muslim school children in Arabia. Now it was amazing when he appeared to me and healed me because that was a one-on-one vision. But when Jesus in 1996 appeared in Arabia, he was wearing a white robe and a green mantle on him, emblematic of the emerald rainbow that's around the throne of God, which the book of Revelation tells us. And he appeared to these Muslim schoolboys as one man and then as three.

22:17They looked and they also saw him and they said, teacher, teacher, the prophet has come. Seen the Issa has come and he is one man, but then he becomes three. And then he's one and then he becomes three again. So he taught them the Trinity and he was carrying in his arm a big holy Bible. So he was saying, this is the word that I want my people to know. I want them to know the Torah and the injil. I want them to know the holy Bible. And Jesus's name, I remember seeing written in the sands of Saudi Arabia many years ago, the name of Jesus. And I knew that Saudi shall be saved. So the fact that you're saved al-Fati is really an example of my prayers over the years and my dreams and visions that all of Islam can't hear and be saved. Amen.

23:17Amen. Amen. In the book also, there is an image here that I'm going to show on the screen where you're seeing Jesus basically that appears appearing to someone who is asleep. Is there a story behind this particular image? Yes. And artists who did illustrations for the first edition of the book showed that when Muslim people are having dreams about Jesus, he's always a man in white and he's always surrounded by light. And sometimes they see the cross and sometimes they see different things in the dreams. And they're all clues that he is Lord and he is Savior. For example, a man from Pakistan wrote to me that in his dream, he saw a man in white and he knew that it was Jesus. They always seem to know that it's not their prophet but it is the risen Lord Jesus. And this Pakistani man was given a box.

24:20He wondered what was in the box. He wrote to me, what do you think this dream means? And I wrote back to saying, well, the word of God says that in him, in the Lord, in Yeshua, in Yeshua, are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. So he's saying, if you open this box, if you open your heart to me, all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge will be given to you. So these dreams are different but they're also the same. And if you're in a taxi, say, with a Muslim driver, you can venture to ask if they've had a dream about Jesus. I mean, that happened to me. I mentioned in my book and the driver said, funny, you should mention that because he's been visiting in my dreams and please interpret my dreams for me. And so God needs evangelists to explain to our Muslim brethren why the Lord is appearing to them because he's answering the prayer of Abraham back in Genesis 17.

25:21Remember when God said that Abraham would be the father of the promise and God was speaking of the promised child Isaac. But Abraham already had a son via Sarah's handman Hegar and his name was Ishmael. And Abraham loved Ishmael and he said, oh, let Ishmael live. I don't need another son. Let Ishmael live before you. And that's also my cry. Oh God, let Ishmael live. Well, as you know, Ishmael can receive through the Arab descendants all sorts of wealth, all wealth, whatever. But unless he receives salvation, he's not blessed. So God promised to Abraham, yes, I'm going to bless him. I'm going to make him great. And how is he blessed? He's blessed with salvation. With coming out from behind the Jericho like walls that are holding him into a religious system and showing him the door to God who is Jesus.

26:27And this is happening in our generation. A great evangelist I know of Egypt said, for example, all of Egypt would believe in Jesus if they only had the freedom to do so. Amen. Amen, I believe it. I believe it. I think obviously if we leave him to the current school system, then same problem will repeat itself. So I agree with you. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great.

27:28Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. Great. an amazing topic and my prayer is that the viewers will interact with you and with us about these scant of topics and maybe even come up with suggestions about things that they feel like they have concern about that will give us some additional areas that we can focus our future episodes on. So once again thank you so much Cicilora and thank you everyone for tuning in. This is Al Fati, God bless, take care.
