I grew up in Palestinian refugee camp in Lebanon. [0:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=5) My father, he take a young people from my camp to go to fight Israel. I grew up with full of hate for Israel, for the American. The people teach us that Israeli take our land. We need to kill the Israeli. We need to kill the American. [0:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=21) I want to die for Allah, and I go to the mosque every day. I went to study with the school called Wahhabi. [0:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=29) This is birth from Al-Qaeda or ISIS, the same teaching. [0:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=33) My life is a change from Muslim to Muslim radical. [0:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=36) I'm ready to die for Allah. I remember when something happened in Israel or in America, 11 September, me and with many friend from Palestinian camp, we go to the street and we dance. One day, I'm out of my Palestinian camp, and one man coming to me, and he start telling me about Jesus. And I look to him, say, "You don't know who I am? [0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=59) I am the good Muslim. Why are you coming to me to tell me about your Jesus?" I became more angry because I want to kill him. [1:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=65) Wh-why he coming to me to tell me about his Jesus? [1:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=69) He say, "If you don't want to read the Bible, it's okay." I say, "You know what? [1:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=73) I want to take this book. I don't believe this is the word of God, but I want to know what my enemy believe." I went to my Palestinian camp, close the door, close the window. When I am reading the Bible, I found something. This is the first time I heard about in Matthew five, six, seven, when Jesus teach love your enemy. [1:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=92) Bless your enemy. Love your enemy. My Allah say, "Kill your enemy." What kind of God he say love your enemy? And the teaching of Jesus, God is love. [1:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=102) We have 99 name, the name of Allah in the Islam, we don't find one name god is love. [1:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=109) I went there, two question coming to me: Why this people love me and g- show me love? And for me, I want to kill this people, and this my enemy. When people start worship Jesus, I saw the people have peace and joy. I don't have this peace when I go to the mosque. After one and half year, I have confusion. [2:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=129) I go to the mosque. I don't pray the Muslim pray. [2:12](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=132) I pray in the mosque, "Lord, where is the truth? [2:15](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=135) You are Jesus, Isa, or Mohammed? Where is the truth? I am tired." And after one month, I visit my friend George and told him what's happened with me, and that time I stay with him, and he start encourage me to follow Jesus. [2:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=149) 2001, July 14, when I am with my friend George, I pray the prayer of salvation, and I accepted Jesus to be my savior and my God. [2:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=161) At that time, the Holy Spirit opened my heart, and he take the all the hate for Israel and give me special love for this nation. [2:52](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/89J1nuNs3jLJ/en/samer-mohammed-s-journey-from-muslim-radicalism-to-christianity?t=172) Who can do that? Mohammed? Only Jesus can do that.
