MOUSSA KONE’S TESTIMONY

My name is Moussa Koné, I am Ibrahim Koné’s son
who is an Imam in Abidjan. I have always been zealous about everything about God. At the age of 14 I had converted all my surroundings into Islam and I did the readings at Mosque.

But I kept thinking about one question: would I be saved? Would I go to paradise ou hell? What are the conditions to go to paradise? I asked my father these questions. My father was a sincere and honest believer. He replied he didn’t know. As I was keen on getting an answer I looked it up in the Koran:

-Sura 100 verses 6, 7,8 says that man is a sinner.
Sura 101 verses 6, 7, 8, 9 talks about a scale on which all our works will be measured.

- Sura Il verse 119, says that men and the wise will all go to hell.
-In sura 19 verse 71, it is written that men will go through hell.


All these answers led me into confusion. I had no assurance about my salvation. Later on, I left as a navy on a commercial ship. One day, the captain invited me so that he could talk to me about the Bible and Jesus because he learnt I was a Moslem. I got really angry. I took his Bible and threw it into the sea telling the captain never to mention the name of Jesus in front of me.

The captain did not get angry. He never talked to me about Jesus anymore but he came to see me every day to chat with me and none of the other navies did that. I was moved by such love.

Despite this, I still had that same question and emptiness about my salvation. I tried to fill up the emptiness by going out with girls but it was to no avail.

I decided to discover what the Koran says compared to the Bible. I discovered:

-Sura 2 verse 136 says that God gave his word to Moses (His Law = the first book of the Bible) and there was no difference between the Koran and the Law ~ (repeated 4 times),

- Sura 5 verse 44 says that the Law comes from God. The verse 46 says: Jesus had the Gospel from God.
-At the verse 57: those who have the Gospel must judge its contents.

-Sura 10, 94, when you are in doubt, go and ask those who have received God’s word before (the Jews and the Christians). I discovered the Koran did not say the Book (The Bible) is false but most of those who read it do not put its commandments into practice.


Who is Jesus ?

My question was : who is Jesus ?


-Sura Maryam says in verses 16 to 21 that God put his Spirit into Mary so that she would give birth to Jesus.

In the Koran, Jesus is called the “Spirit of God”, the “Word of God” and the “Messiah”. The Koran tells us Jesus is bigger than all the prophets, all have sinned, even Mohammed the prophet but Jesus never sinned.

About the crucifixion of Jesus

Sura 4 verse 157 tells us that they did not kill Jesus. But in sura 3 verse 55 God announces his death and ascension. This same verse also tells us that those that follow Jesus are beyond the others.

In this way I realized that as a Moslem, I could read the Bible and assurance of eternal life was found in the Bible. I realized that no one could save himself by doing good works. No one could do sufficient good works to deserve paradise. No one could pay for his sins, but it is only Jesus, the only one without sin who could pay for sin by dying on the cross.

It was then fundamental that Jesus died on the cross because by doing this, he was punished in our stead and thanks to his sacrifice, God could forgive our sins. The punishment that brought us peace was upon him and by his wounds we are healed (Isaiah 53:5).

I then discovered in the Koran that there was no assurance about salvation but it was suggested that Moslems read the Bible and did not have to consider the Jews or Christians who did not put God’s word into practice but read directly the Word.

I prayed and Jesus revealed himself to me. I no more follow any religion with ritual but I have a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ who gives me joy, love and peace, and helps me to live a Holy life in God’s service and give me the assurance of salvation. Why not you? Moussa Koné

Jesus said: I am the way, the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except by me. (The Gospel according to John chapter 14 verse 6).

"Anyone who curses his God will bear the consequences of his sin,
16 and anyone who blasphemes the name of Yahweh will be put to death; the whole community will stone him; be he alien …More

24:15
"Anyone who curses his God will bear the consequences of his sin,
16 and anyone who blasphemes the name of Yahweh will be put to death; the whole community will stone him; be he alien or native-born, if he blasphemes the Name, he will be put to death.
17 "Anyone who strikes down any other human being will be put to death.
18 "Anyone who strikes down an animal will make restitution for it: a life for a life.
19 "Anyone who injures a neighbour shall receive the same in return,
20 broken limb for broken limb, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. As the injury inflicted, so will be the injury suffered.
21 Whoever strikes down an animal will make restitution for it, and whoever strikes down a human being will be put to death.
22 The sentence you pass will be the same, whether on native-born or on alien; for I am Yahweh your God." '
23 Moses having told the Israelites this, they took the man who had pronounced the curse out of the camp and stoned him. And so the Israelites carried out Yahweh's order to Moses.

I ll take New testament ...Jesus speaks to gentiles, samaritans and heals sick..He gives keys to Peter,
Peter wrote letter by Holy spirit so does Popes Francis ,he writes explanation which is from HOLY SPIRIT. 👍
“Sharing our experience in carrying that cross, to expel the illness within our hearts, which embitters our life: it is important that you do this in your meetings. Those that are Christian, with the Bible, and those that are Muslim, with the Quran. The faith that your parents instilled in you will always help you move on.”

thanks 🤗

The Quran contains at least 109 verses that call Muslims to war with nonbelievers for the sake of Islamic rule. Some are quite graphic, with commands to chop off heads and fingers and kill infidels wherever they may be hiding. Muslims who do not join the fight are called 'hypocrites' and warned that Allah will send them to Hell if they do not join the slaughter.

Quran (2:191-193) - "And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [disbelief] is worse than killing...
but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah
[disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah] and worship is for Allah alone. But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun (the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)"

I'll take the bible... thanks. 😇

🤨 Thank the Lord Jesus Christ you have found the truth. First is to know the truth, to know that Jesus is the way, the truth and the life.

🤨 Thank the Lord Jesus Christ you have found the truth. First is to know the truth, to know that Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. We must start with the revelation of the inspired word of God which is the Bible. In the New Testament we have four evangelists who witnessed the truth. According to the law of Moses who taught us to discover the truth in a trial it was necessary to have more than two witnesses. In the New Testament section of the Bible we have Matthew, Mark, Luke and John talking about the same events. And then you have the tradition of the Church of Alexandria founded by St. Mark the Evangelist himself (this from the Siglo I).

The Apostle Paul warns us even if an angel comes from heaven and announces a different gospel do not believe him. Mohammed was so scared it was his first wife who told him not to be afraid because this could only come from God.

The book of Revelation was given by the Lord Jesus Christ and was the last book of what is the Bible the last revelation to the last living Disciple of Jesus after which there is no other, because the same Jesus makes all the revelations. There is no need for angels to come from heaven 578 years later to change the things that Jesus had taught. We Christians serve a living God. The name of the Lord who is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The promise is Isaac never to Ishmael.
😇 Jesus is the Lamb of God, who redeemed us from sin and the only sacrifice that could forgive the sins of all who believe in Him. In the third century was made in accordance with all Christians of the Nicean Creed.

1 John 5:10-13
Whoever believes in the Son of God accepts this testimony. Whoever does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because they have not believed the testimony God has given about his Son...
