Christians Must Heed
Jesus
Almighty God also reveals in the Koran that believers who turn
to Him are people who reflect on the evidence of Creation and are thus
properly able to appreciate His sublime might:
...those who remember God, standing, sitting and lying on their
sides, and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the Earth:
"Our Lord, You have not created this for nothing. Glory be to You!
So safeguard us from the punishment of the Fire." (Koran, 3:191)
Deep reflection is important in order to be able to be a true be-
liever. True faith is impossible without reflection. Deep reflection is a
condition of faith on which Muslims, Jews and Christians must all fo-
cus. Only when people think deeply can they realize the greatness and
might of God and decipher the surface and hidden meanings of the
profound words in the holy books. Religion is not a way of life that is
merely to be taught and memorized.
