CENTERVILLE, Va., Mar. 9 /Christian Wire Service/ -- John Marion, project director of Truth For Muslims, an evangelical Christian group, announced plans to reach more people in Texas with their message.
"Christians in Texas have told us they like our message," said Marion from his Virginia office near Washington, DC.
Marion continued, "We're meeting the challenge of Islam through evangelism, teaching, and public speaking. A lot of people in Texas have told us they believe in our message. We will mail our letters to Christians throughout the state."
Literature published by Truth For Muslims, which has been mailed to 50,000 households, proclaims that the purpose of the project is to bring "a comprehensive, biblical response to Islam in America."
"During the past 1400 years there has been no greater challenge to the Christian gospel than Islam," stated Marion.
Marion served as a missionary in Afghanistan in the 1990's where he learned to speak the Dari language. He established the Center of Peace and Hope in Christ for Afghanistan in 1999. After September 11, Marion turned his attention to helping Christians meet the challenge of Islam in America.
In 2004, Marion established Truth For Muslims, a project of Spear Ministries which is a nonprofit organization dedicated to proclaiming the gospel to "Hindu, Muslim, Pagan and other people groups."
"There are a lot of evangelicals in Texas who can be mobilized to bring the gospel to Muslims in America and who can teach others about the gospel," Marion said.
He continued, "The gospel is so different from the teachings of Mohammed, but not everyone understands how big the difference is between the two. I'm looking for more Christians in Texas to help me get the message out to people across the country."
Marion explained that those working with him are committed to praying for Muslims and evangelizing them with the message of Christ. He says that over 2,500 people have signed up to receive regular information from Truth For Muslims through the mail.
Marion's "18 Truths About Reaching Muslims in America With the Gospel" are published in the current Truth For Muslims newsletter.
These one sentence "truths" include statements such as, "The clear commands of Christ compel us to bring the gospel to Muslims, whatever the cost," and "We are bringing the message of Christ to those who are spiritually dead."
John Marion is available for interviews and radio talk shows.

Good idea. Use a computer to send this to all names in the phone book with an "ali", "muhammad" or "hossein". That should cover about 80 percent of them. We might get the occasional Ali McGraw, but they won't mind.
God Bless Texas!
The truth shall set you free.
Although it may pi$$ off a few mooselimbs.
Learn about Isa al Masih (Jesus Christ) - his amazing life, his beautiful teachings, his sacrificial death, and evidence that he rose from the dead and will return to the world a second time.
In fact, even today many Muslims from throughout the world are reporting that they have been visited in a dream or a vision by Isa al Masih, often coming as a man in white. In such dreams and visions, he tells of his resurrection and the fact that he is the only way to salvation.
