Here was Omar, a Muslim who hated Jews,<br />
reading Matthew, the first book in the New<br />
Testament. Omar was reading a book <strong>that</strong> was<br />
primarily written to explain the Messiah to<br />
Jews.<br />
As Omar read of the genealogy of the Lord<br />
Jesus, and on through the beatitudes and the<br />
wonderful teachings of the Lord Jesus, God<br />
began to draw his heart to the Savior.<br />
As he read the verses in Matthew 10 about<br />
members of your own household being your<br />
enemies and Jesus bringing a sword which<br />
would divide family, he fell to his knees and<br />
confessed Christ as Savior.<br />
Later when someone asked him why those<br />
verses, of all verses, would be the very ones <strong>that</strong><br />
would bring him to faith in Christ, he said,<br />
“When I read them, I knew <strong>that</strong> Jesus must<br />
be God because only God would require such<br />
from His followers.”<br />
