Sharing Christ with Muslim Students (nucleus - summer 2001)

During my final year at Medical School, I attended an CMF/UCCF 'Answering Other Faiths' day conference. The aim of the day was to give Christian students a 'taster' of the beliefs and doctrines of other world religions. I ended up in the seminar dealing with Muslim student outreach. It was...

Near-Death Experiences (nucleus - winter 2000)

Rene’s van aquaplaned out of control, smashing her skull on an industrial power pole: ‘I was moving headfirst through a dark maelstrom of what looked like black boiling clouds. I felt that I was being beckoned to the sides; that frightened me. Ahead was a tiny dot of bright light...

Islam - How to Reach your Neighbour (nucleus - winter 2000)

Of all the world religions, it is perhaps Islam that poses the biggest threat and challenge to Christianity. There are several reasons for this. Strength in numbers, a missionary outlook, a cohesive social system that is resistant to outside influence; all play a part. But above all, Islam strikes at...

Hinduism (nucleus - autumn 2000)

In terms of the number of adherents, Hinduism is the largest religion in Asia. It is India’s major faith, with 80% of the population being Hindu. In Great Britain the 1991 census revealed that there were 400,000 Hindus resident in this country. The figure today is probably a lot higher....

What do Muslims believe? Where do their ideas concerning Christianity stem from? How did my preconceptions derive their existence? Are my images of anger, confrontation and violence a valid picture of Islam? To find some answers 45 students, graduates and professionals gathered for a CMF 'Ishmael My Brother' conference in...

Embryology and the Qur'an (nucleus - summer 1997)

Many Muslims claim that the Qur'an contains statements about how humans develop which could not possibly have been known at the time of its writing. If true, this would imply that the Qur'an had a divine author. Indeed, when Prof Keith Moore, the writer of 'The Developing Human', a widely...

Evangelism among Muslims (nucleus - spring 1997)

It's hard to win a tennis match with your arms tied behind your back. The trouble is, we tend to find ourselves sharing the gospel with Muslims with our arms tied behind our backs and then wonder why we don't serve many aces or even get the ball back over...

Cults - Angels of Light (nucleus - spring 1994)

I believe it was GK Chesterton who once said 'When men cease to believe in God they do not believe in nothing, they believe in anything'. Looking around the Western world today it is not hard to see the truth of that remark. We seem to be surrounded by an...

Jehovah's Witnesses and Blood Transfusions (nucleus - winter 1993)

Introduction She was my first surgical patient; the Spanish lady in bed 16 admitted with acute biliary colic. Due to a shortage of patients another student actually `clerked' her whilst I just sat and listened, adding the odd constructive comment. We'd been told that our consultant generally regarded the social history...
