Christians share common ground with Muslims and that common ground is their faith in God. That this can be used to build a bridge to Muslim people was explained by Dr. Moucarry at the annual prayer conference of Fellowship of Faith for Muslims last June.
We can explain Christ to Muslims in terms of the attributes of God which we both believe in. Here we look at seven major characteristics of God which can point them to Christ.
God is transcendent
This word 'transcendent' means that God is different from his universe. He is far above us and immensely beyond our comprehension. Muslims have this famous expression: 'Allah Akbar' which conveys this idea. It means 'God is greater' - not great, but greater.
