    Maybe 30 years ago I attended a lecture from Siraj. Not a sound in the hall..complete silence! One could have heard a pin drop ! Yet not one sound was heard.

    I'm an atheist. I do not follow a main religion. I do believe there is something greater but I can't find my answers in the books. But if I am wrong then I can say with sureness that this man will go to paradise. I admire his work and even if I don't believe in god the way others do I do believe in his words because they speak of the beauty of love and peace. May peace be upon all of us brothers and sisters.

    Unless that Imam repented and came to Jesus Christ, he cannot enter into heaven according to what Jesus teaches. Jesus says "I am THE way, THE truth, and THE life, nobody goes to the Father in heaven except through me," John 14:6. Jesus is God the Son and anyone who denies that denies His true identity. Jesus says "If you deny me before men, I shall deny you before my angels in heaven," Matthew 10:33

    Al men die-- this is the result of sin.
    We can not save ourseves from death it is going to happen to everyone.
    But------
    God came in the flesh and took his own wrath for our sin upon himself.
    and all who beieve this will receive eternal life.
    God Paid the price of sin and if you try to work your way to God with your own deeds you disrespect what God has done and will perish.
    it is by Faith ALONE in Christ (the God-man) that will lead to being saved from death and eternity in He.
