Report: ISIS Fighter Who ‘Enjoyed’
Killing Christians Wants to Follow
Jesus After Dreaming of Man in
White Who Told Him ‘You Are Killing
My People’
It has become a common occurrence over the
years for Muslims in the Middle East who have
converted to Christianity to claim to have been
compelled to do so after dreaming of a person
who they believe is Jesus Christ. Now, one
militant belonging to the brutal Islamic State that
has massacred Christians has converted to his
victims’ religion after dreaming of “a man in
white” with a startling message, according to one
missionary’s account.
“One of our YWAM workers in the Middle East
was contacted by a friend earlier this year and
they met up and he was introduced to an ISIS
fighter who had killed many Christians already. I
mean that’s a horrible situation, and admittedly,
he was probably on guard,” Gina Fadely, director
of Youth With A Mission Frontier Missions, Inc.
(YWAM), said during a recent appearance on The
Voice of the Martyrs Radio Network.
YWAM, a nonprofit missionary organization
active since 1960, describes itself as “a global
movement of Christians from many cultures, age
groups, and Christian traditions, dedicated to
serving Jesus throughout the world.” The Voice of
the Martyrs (VOM) is another nonprofit that
draws attention to Christians facing persecution
around the world.
Fadely, who appeared on the VOM radio program
along with Kevin Sutter, another YWAM leader,
went on to share that this Islamic State jihadi
confessed not only to killing Christians but “that
he had actually enjoyed doing so.”
“He told this YWAM leader that he had begun
having dreams of this man in white who came to
him and said, ‘You are killing my people.’ And he
started to feel really sick and uneasy about what
he was doing,” Fadely continued. “The fighter
said just before he killed one Christian, the man
said, ‘I know you will kill me, but I give to you
my Bible.’ The Christian was killed and this ISIS
fighter actually took the Bible and began to read
it. In another dream, Jesus asked him to follow
him and he was now asking to become a follower
of Christ and to be discipled.”
“So who knows. Perhaps this man will be like
Saul in the Bible that persecuted Christians and
he turned from that persecution of the early
church to become the Apostle Paul who led it,”
Fadely added. “God can turn it around.”
The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), also
referred to ISIL and most recently Daesh, has
been since 2013 waging a bloody campaign to
establish a caliphate, or a Sunni-led Islamic
government, across Northern Africa and
throughout the Middle East, although its
leadership claims the intention to reach as far as
the Vatican in Rome.
The jihadists’ methods are cruel and involve
brutal firing squads, hangings, stonings, and
beheadings of religious minorities such as Yazidis,
Christians, and even other Muslims who go
against its hard-line rule. The Islamic State
startled the world when it released videos of its
members killing groups of Ethiopian Christians in
Libya by viciously hacking their heads from their
bodies.
His Grace Bishop Angaelos, General Bishop of the
Coptic Orthodox Church in the United Kingdom,
said after the April killing of one group of 21
Ethiopian Christians that believers should
“forgive and pray for the perpetrators.”
Todd Nettleton, host of VOM Radio featuring the
YWAM directors, stated during the program that
the next time Christians hear about more
atrocities committed by Islamic State militants,
they should not “write them off as being out of
reach of God’s grace and out of reach of God’s
spirit.”
Sutter, the other YWAM director who appeared
with Fadley on the VOM Radio program, shared
that he has learned from one of his leaders in the
Arab world, an Arab man, that he had been
witnessing a “spiritual hunger” that was
“unprecedented” among Muslims.
“Many people are now following Jesus but they
keep it quiet. They haven’t gone public about it.
They even have church in their own home,
they’re watching, they’ll serve communion to one
another as they’re watching TV,” Sutter said.
Fadely suggested that God was using dreams to
give YWAM missionaries a helping hand in
reaching otherwise hard-to-reach groups in the
Middle East with the Christian message. She said
she believed that dreams were one way in which
God was convincing Muslims and other non-
Christians to believe in Jesus as savior.
Nabeel Qureshi, an apologist and the author of
Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus: A Devout Muslim
Encounters Christianity, explained the
significance of dreams to Muslims in a March
interview with The Christian Post.
“In Muslim cultures, generally speaking, people
don’t see themselves as being able to commune
with God. Communion is a very Christian concept
and the idea that Christ has torn down the veil
— in a lot of cultures the veil is still up. In Islam,
for example, people don’t expect to have God talk
back to them personally, as the Holy Spirit isn’t
living in them. They ask God for guidance
through dreams; that’s like the one way that
Muslims expect to hear from God,” Qureshi
explained.
“For someone to reach out and ask, ‘God, can you
tell me about you?’ Or, ‘If you’re Jesus, can you
show me a dream?’ That’s not strange at all. …
That’s kind of what Muslims do,” he added.
Christians have been skeptical of Muslims’ claims
that “Jesus dreams” have led them to
Christianity, but longtime Southern Baptist
missionary David Garrison also affirms that many
Muslims have been inspired through these
dreams to believe in Jesus as more than a
prophet, as he is acknowledged in Islam. The CBN
video below also looks at the phenomenon and
offers the accounts of former Muslims who claim
dreams of Jesus changed their lives.
