21 - ISLAM & CHRIST'S SECOND COMINGAs is common with Satan, the arch-deceiver, he will always pervert what
he cannot outright deny. He has led Muslims to believe that Jesus is
coming again to kill the anti-Christ (Dajjal), Islamize the world, marry
and die, and then be buried. To show that Muslims really believe this
demonic eschatology, they have already dug a grave for Jesus alongside
that of Muhammad at Medina. (Those that go to Mecca to run round and
kiss a black stone, Ka'aba, can bear witness to it). This stupendous lie
came forth from the abyss because Jesus Christ will never die again. That
grave at Medina will remain empty throughout eternity. Jesus has
completely conquered death. The Bible says:
For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he
cannot die again: death no longer has mastery over Him.
(Romans 6:9, NIV).
Jesus used the death process to travel to that realm to destroy Satan, sin
and death.
"The reason the son1 of God appeared was to destroy the devil's
work. (I John 3:8, NIV).
Why not allow Jesus to destroy the devil's works in your life?
"Since the children have flesh and blood, he too [Jesus] shared
in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him
who holds the power of death - that is, the devil. (Hebrews
2:14, NIV).

1 Editor's Note: The term "Son of God" is not a Christian invention. Jesus was even
called the "Son of God," by his enemies, and it is what He called Himself. The
Pharisees in Jesus' day fully understood that Jesus declared His sonship, and
attempted to kill Him for it several times. The term "Son of God" does not mean
that God took a wife in the normal biological process. The Bible concept of Christ's
sonship is that God the Father, in love, sent a part of Himself, His only begotten
Son, to Earth, in the form of a man (Jesus Christ), to save us from our sins. (See
John 1:1-14; 1Timothy 3:16)

Jesus did not wage a Jihad against innocent souls, but against His
archenemy - Satan. He defeated Satan on the cross of Calvary about
2,000 years ago. Satan is only using Islam to launch a counter attack
against Jesus. It will soon come to naught (Revelation 19:20; 20:7-10;
1 Corinthians 15:24-26) Jesus is not coming again to preach, but to first
of all evacuate his followers (1 Thessalonians 4:16, 17) and then punish
in eternal fire all who rejected His Gospel (2 Thess 1:7-8).
Christ will descend with such supernatural power that His glory
alone will dazzle the devil out of action from a range of several million
miles. (See 2 Thessalonians 2:8, cf.. Acts 9:3). Remember, just a tiny
amount of His glory dazed the great persecutor, Saul, on his way to
Damascus (Acts 9:3). Were it not for the mercy of our Lord and that Saul
repented of his sins (Acts 9:17, 18), that story would have ended
differently.
If Satan himself cannot stand before the power of Jesus Christ, how
much less can you, a mere man, your flesh can even be destroyed by a
tiny malaria mosquito. From whence cometh your arrogance, you who
are made from dust? (Genesis 3:19). Multitudes are already suffering in
Hell. You can join them, too, if you wish, by turning away from the only
Gospel that can save you:
He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or
three witnesses: Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye,
shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the
Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant,
wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done
despite unto the Spirit of grace? (Hebrews 10:28-29)
