I'd like to hear from people who have had experience with witnessing to Muslims.
I've noticed from the various Muslims who I've witnessed to that there seems to be a general mistrust. It seems that they believe that there is a spy behind every corner and that the Christian who helps them and shares the gospel with them is probably a spy too.
Why do you think that is?
Personally, I've been accused by Muslims of being a spy; after all, who in their right mind would spend time and money on total strangers? I've also been accused of getting money ($2,000) from an organization for every Muslim that I convert to Christianity; if anyone knows the name of that organization please let me know.
But, I'm curious if this "spy mentality" (mistrust) might be a mixture of many things: the U.S involvement in the Middle East, or a cultural issue, or maybe something theological --after all, Allah is said to be the greatest of deceivers.
Any thoughts (preferably from people with personal experience)?
Thanks,
Matthew
