... Is Jesus telling me to convert to Islam? :/?
Before anyone says anything, please hear me out.
I went to bed last night, and I was feeling a bit lost, spiritually. So I prayed. For the first time in a very long time. It wasn't a proper prayer, but I asked the Lord what to do. And what he wanted me to do. And then I felt a bit silly and went to sleep.
But I had a dream. And the most vivid part of it was where I was walking down the sidewalk, and on the side there was a sign. It was an old-looking sign; like the type that they used to have in front of manors or mansions. And it said "Jesusington loves Islam"
I have no idea what that means. It really could have just been my mind being weird. But I get this strange feeling when I think about it.
I'm a 16 year old Orthodox Christian by the way. What do you guys think?

Here's a thought:
John 14:2 in the New Testament is a well-known passage: "In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you."
I don't believe that God is telling you to convert to Islam, but I do think it's quite possible that God is telling you to LOVE Muslims. A Muslim and an Orthodox Christian are *both* a Child of God. Muslims are among those who will dwell in the "many mansions", along with Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus and all those who seek righteousness. (Ultimately, after God has purified our souls, I believe that will be everyone. Yes, I believe in universal salvation.)
Perhaps God in His Wisdom knows that you will come into frequent contact with Muslims in your future? So it may be that God is preparing you to reach out to them in divine Love and accept Muslims as fellow children of God, and not turn them aside or discriminate against them because their beliefs are different from yours.

Orthodox Christians put little stock in dreams. If this continues to disturb you, talk to your priest. Probably not a bad idea, anyway.
Forgive me.

That wasn't Jesus you heard. Jesus would never tell you to do that. Scripture says to prove all things and test the spirits.

Its very much possible....because Jesus after all...was a muslim who preached Islam. BIBLE PROVES IT!
Jesus never claimed divinity!
John 5:30
By myself I can do nothing; I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just, for I seek not to please myself but him who sent me.
THIS VERSE IS ENOUGH! Ponder upon this verse, and compare it with every doctrines of Christianity.

Bible proves that Jesus was a muslim who worshipped God!! The same way all prophets worshiped!
"O you who believe! Bow down and prostrate yourselves and serve your Lord, and do good that you may prosper."-(HOLY QURAN 22:77).
"And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying," - Old Testament (Tanakh) (Genesis 17:3)
"And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped." - Old Testament (Tanakh Exodus 34:8
Mathew 26:39
"HE(Jesus) fell with his face to the ground and prayed"
"And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship..."-(JOSHUA 5:14).
obviously jesus was not worshiping himself, he was worshiping God
(Do you see the trend of truth, or not?)

Even after all that 'islamophobia' that media spreads, why do you think people are still risking getting into Islam?? (i say risk, because people are brain washed against Islam, and when someone accepts they are quite easily alienated, even with their family....SO, Why Do People Still Wanna Go Through These Trouble????
BECAUSE!! Islam is the truth! And wjen the truth is witnessed there is no turning back!
