From Islam to Christianity: A True Story of Faith and Persecution, (Paperback)

Isah Jesse Abraham was raised a Muslim in Nigeria but fell in love with a Christian woman. To marry her, he converted her to Islam. But after a vision of Jesus Christ returned her to the Christian faith, his religion commanded that he bring her back to Islam - or kill her. Then he experienced his own vision of Jesus Christ! Now he has been targeted for murder by his community and his own family for leaving the Muslim faith. This book is his story of persecution, loss, and the search for religious truth. Isah Jesse Abraham's autobiography is also an exegesis of how Jesus Christ is presented in the Bible and in the Quran. Quoting both, he explains how verses in the Quran testify to the deity of Jesus. The Honorable Frank Wolf, former U.S. Representative and former Co-Chair of the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission, called it "a very important and powerful book that should be read by everyone who cares about persecution of Christians and religious freedom." Senior Pastor Donald G. Kroah, host of The Don Kroah Show on WAVA Radio and President of Reach Africa Now, called this book "an epic story of great faith and suffering." The Rev. Isah Jesse Abraham is the founder of Covenant Salvation Ministries and was Senior Pastor of Covenant Salvation Bible Church in Abuja Nigeria, where he co-pastored with his wife, the Rev. Damaris Zainab Isah. Covenant Salvation is a charismatic congregation with a mandate to take salvation to families of the world. Rev. Isah was born into a Muslim Hausa Fulani family from Kano State in Nigeria and was converted to Christianity in 1995. After enduring more than 20 years of persecution, he and his wife were granted temporary asylum in the United States and now live near Washington, D.C.
