GC-C-02 Bible (native Muslim dialect) printed

Gift C-02 - Bible (native Muslim dialect) printed

Bring God's Word to a lost world this Christmas! In the Qur'an, Islam's holy book, Muslims are instructed to read (surah 3:3) the Torah (5 books of Moses), the Zabur (Psalms of David), and the Injil (the Gospel of Jesus). While Muslims attest that the Bible has been corrupted, they are still looking for these three "lost" books. Just recently, a very creative and effective translation of the Bible for Muslims has become available, presenting God's Word in its entirety in their native language dialect, but represented in these three physical books. GFM is currently needing 10,000 Bibles to be made available for distribution to Muslim imams (pastors) and villagers, via our culturally sensitive GFM Asia team. Through GFM's initiatives you can make God's Word available and accessible to Muslims in their own heart language. Combat terrorism with the Truth of God's love! You can be a part of distributing the Bible in the Muslim dialect half-way around the world!
