God warns that the Arabs would be the special targets of
His wrath. The reason given is because they took the land He
gave to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and their descendants and wouldn’t
give it back.
God predicts they would arrogantly appropriate His land
that He gave to Israel, “Therefore, thus says the Lord God,
‘Surely in the fire of My jealousy I have spoken against the
rest of the nations, and against ALL EDOM, who appropriated My
land for themselves as a possession with wholehearted joy and
with scorn of soul, to drive it out for a prey.”
Ezekiel predicts a great war would start when the
Israelites miraculously return to the land and become a state
again. He predicts the enemies of Israel by name. The
confederacy of nations named is all the modern nations of the
Muslim Middle East.
He predicts they will be armed and led by a great power
from the extreme north of Israel, which could only be Russia:
The central thesis of the Koran is that the Jews distorted
and falsified the original revelation God gave them. Mohammad
was sent as the final Seal of the Prophets.
In closing, I want to make it clear that God loves the
Muslim people. He has always loved the Arabs. Jesus Christ died
for every one of them.
He died for every one of them so that they can have a gift
of forgiveness and be brought into God’s forever family. But
they must recognize that their religion has no provision for
making them holy and acceptable to a holy God.

Here are some of the things said in the Hadith and the
Koran, the two holy books of Islam.
“The Resurrection of the dead will not come until the
Muslims will war with the Jews and the Muslims will kill them.
The trees and rocks will say, ‘O Muslim, here is a Jew behind
me, come and kill him.” (Mohammad in the Hadith)
“Muslims, take neither the Jews nor the Christians for
your friends. They are friends with one another. Whoever of you
seeks their friendship shall become one of their number. Allah
does not guide the wrongdoers.” (Surah 5:51)
“Those who make war against Allah and His apostle Mohammad
and spread disorder in the land shall be slain or crucified or
have their hands and feet cut off on alternate sides, or
banished from the land.” (Surah 5:33-34)
“Prophet, make war on the unbelievers and the hypocrites
and deal rigorously with them. Hell shall be their home: an evil
fate.” (Surah 9:73)
“When the sacred months are over, slay the idolators
wherever you find them. Arrest them, besiege them, and lie in
ambush everywhere for them.” (Surah 9:5)
Christians are considered “polytheists and idolators”
because we believe that Jesus is the Son of God.
“NEVER DID ALLAH TAKE TO HIMSELF A SON, and never was
there with him any (other) god – in that case would each god
have certainly taken away what he created, and some of them
would certainly have overpowered others; glory be to Allah above
what they describe!” (Surah 23:91)
