About

Olin Giles interviews Thomas Samuel, a former, radical salafi Muslim who encountered Jesus. In his new autobiography, Thomas Samuel describes his gut-wrenching conversion experience from radical Salafi Islam to becoming a follower of Jesus Christ. From a young age, Thomas was a devout Muslim who memorized the entire Quran, led prayer in the mosque, and dreamed of jihad and martyrdom. However, his life was turned radically upside down when Jesus came to him in a series of dreams, setting in motion a chain of events that would ultimately cause him to rebel and leave Islam while searching for truth in various world religions, none of which brought peace to his tormented soul. Thomas offers a window deep into the daily life, faith, and worldview of the Salafi community. He also outlines the moral, historical, and philosophical problems he found in the Quran and the earliest biography of Muhammad. These inconsistencies caused him to leave Islam and run for his life to Jesus. Website: https://www.radicaltruth.net Donate: https://www.radicaltruth.net/donate
