Do you think everyone here should immediately convert to Christianity because you think God talked to you?
If I told you that God personally revealed to me that Islam was the true religion, would you take me seriously?
I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish.
Actually, the only way anyone becomes a true christian is if God speaks to them. And I not specifically talking about hearing words, but rather communicating. I'm just telling you how it is, which is also what the bible says. I'd like to see everyone convert, but we all must receive it from God or it won't happen; and I can't make that happen.
I believe Islam is a step toward finding God. We're all somewhere in the process. I think God has made muslims aware of his existence; or rather those who have truly opened themselves to him. The same goes for anyone who truly wants to know him. That's not saying that Islam is the true faith, but that they have knowledge of God. They know he exists.
Again, what are you trying to accomplish?
If people only believe after God speaks to them, what is the point of your being here and arguing for his existence? Seems to be a self-defeating effort.
When you heard God speaking to you, did he say "Christianity is the real religion. The bible is the true book." Curious what he said that made you certain of these things and confident that Islam is just a stepping stone toward the purity of your beliefs.
