The book examines how to approach Muslims through means, criticism, politics, proclamation, and overcoming intolerance, and clarifies the intended goals such as individual conversion versus mass movements. It addresses preaching, teaching, witnessing, the place of converts in the church, responsibilities in evangelism, and questions of universality. Further sections compare Christianity and Islam regarding faith, dogma, the Trinity, Christ’s sonship, Muhammad, and the concept of Sunnah, culminating in key doctrinal comparisons.","Mission to Islam and Beyond  \nMission to Islam  \nand Beyond  \nFormerly published as The Practical Approach to Muslims  \nJens Christensen  \nNEW CREATION PUBLICATIONS INC.  \nPO Box 403, Blackwood, South Australia 5051  \nFirst published by by Mrs. M.
