"2000 Pakistan Church Leaders' Seminar andHealing Crusade with Rev. Dr. Jae-Rock Lee" was held at Burt Institute in Lahore from October 19 to 22, 2000.It was very meaningful crusade because it was not only held in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan but also powerful works of God the Creator ad Jesus Christ our Saviour were proclaimed to the Muslims. It was also said to have opened the gate of the Arabic mission. We give all gratitude and glory to the living God.
Islam and Arab people the descendants of Ishmael, son of Abraham
The Islam was founded by Mohammed at Arabia in A.D. 610. It is also called "Islamism,Mohammedanism" and Mohammed is a descendant of Ishmael a son of Abraham whom he got from Hagar. Ishmael was born before Abraham got Isaac with faith. He wandered in the desert of Arabia and became the ancestor of Arab people. Even though Arab people are living in the desert, they can rule over the world with the abundant petroleum as the descendants of Abraham. When God said to him that He would give him a son of faith, Abraham said to Him, "Will a son be born to a man a hundred years old? Will Sarah bear a child at the age of ninety?" and confessed, "If only Ishmael might live under Your blessing." God answered his desire in reality. So Genesis 17:20-21 says, "And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation. But My covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you by this time next year."
The Islamic republic of Pakistan near the Arab people
Pakistan, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, and Iran made the Islam as their national religion or they have the majority of Muslims. So they are called Islamic countries. They believe in God the Creator as the Only, Absolute, and Almighty being and call Him 'Allah'. But they don't accept Jesus Christ as Son of God, but Mohammed as the biggest prophet and believe his revelation as the absolute doctrine, and have 'the Koran'. The Islam is one of the biggest religions in the world with Christianity and Buddhism. It is exclusively against other religions. So to proclaim other religion are prohibited in one way or another in the majority of the Islamic countries. It also is growing fast. So even many of the so-called Christians without experiencing the works of the Holy Spirit are easily indulged in Islam. That is why it is important to proclaim the living God and Jesus Christ our Saviour to them. Pakistan was a territory of India in the British Empire and was Hinduism country. But as it was contiguous to Iran, an Islamic country, the Islam was brought in around A.D. 8 and grew fast. However, the tension between Islam and Hindu caused severe conflicts and finally the country declared its independence from India as the Islamic Republic of Pakistan in August, 1947.
