Muslims Are Leaving Islam in Droves and "Begging Christ for Healing"

Leah Marieann Klett : Nov 11, 2016  The Gospel Herald

Triggered by the lack of freedom in Islam and gratitude to Christians offering help to refugees fleeing war-torn countries, thousands have turned to Christianity.

A ministry director working in in northern Iraq's autonomous region of Kurdistan shared with Christian Aid Mission how his organization has been distributing Bibles, leading Bible studies and holding discipleship training sessions for displaced people for more than two years.

He revealed that before ISIS seized Mosul in 2014, it had the reputation as the Iraqi city that was most closed to the Gospel. However, triggered by the lack of freedom in Islam and gratitude to Christians offering help to refugees fleeing war-torn countries, thousands have turned to Christianity.

"So now they see the true face of Islam, they saw the teachings of Islam and they know what it means to be under the Islamic State," he said. "I believe a lot of heart-breaking stories will come out of Mosul with people who are ready to leave Islam and beg for Christ to take their lives and give them healing."

As Iraqi forces push ahead with their offensive to drive ISIS out of their stronghold, militants have forced about 1,500 families to retreat with them and abducted 295 former Iraqi Security Force (ISF) members from villages on the outskirts of the city, Reuters reports. Eighteen of the town's 30 sheiks have been killed, according to a report received by the United Nations.
