I just read the full text of the Pope’s address at the mosque in Jordan. He did NOT mince words. This is one courageous and deeply thoughtful Pope. He went into the heart of darkness and preached God’s word.
“...so is My word that goes out from My mouth: It will not return to Me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11 NIV
If we see Muslims becoming Christians from that witness, I’d believe that this is what that is. Otherwise color me a doubting Thomas.
I get the sense that Muslims scoff at the Pope as much as they do at anything else in the Western world.
Good ! - Thanks
