Kurzbeschreibung

'There is no more heroic figure in the history of Christendom than that of Raymund Lull the first and perhaps the greatest Missionary to Mohammedans.' Raymund Lull ((Ramon Lull), was years ahead of his time; described 'a reformer before the Reformation' and 'Dr. Illuminatus', he was a great thinker as well as doer, establishing missionary colleges to carry the Gospel to Moslems, while personally obeying Christ's command to 'Go' himself. In the Dark Ages, Heaven enlightened Lull to know the love of God and to do the Will of God as no other of his generation. From a powerful vision of Christ's unrequited Love at the time of the bloody Crusades, Lull began his own crusade of love. Lull's motto was, 'He who loves not lives not; he who lives by the Life cannot die.' In 1315, Lull was stoned to death while preaching to the Moslems in North Africa. Although nearly seven hundred years old, Lull's story still powerfully speaks to Christians today.
