Robert Westmoreland was a Pentecostal pastor for over 10 years, leading a mega church with eight locations across the United States. When deep questions about the Trinity went unanswered by the highest levels of Christian leadership, he closed all eight locations and embarked on a journey that took him through Voodoo, Santeria, and the African orisha tradition before finally finding the truth in Islam. Since taking his shahada, he has guided over 12 other Christian pastors into Islam.
From Mega Church Pastor to Voodoo Priest to Muslim
Robert’s journey is unlike any other conversion story. After closing his eight-church empire because he could no longer accept the Trinity, he dove into the darkest spiritual practices available — Santeria, Palombe (worship of the dead), and the Yoruba orisha tradition, where he became a babalao (father of mysteries). He could get people healed and help them acquire wealth, but when he himself became gravely ill and spent two weeks in ICU, the shrines he had built were powerless to save him. Every path that involved partners, intermediaries, or created beings as objects of worship left him empty and sick.
I could get people healed. I could get people millions of dollars. But when it came to me being sick, I kept going to my shrines and nothing happened. That’s when I knew I needed to find the Creator directly.
Why Islam Is the Answer the World Resists
- Every vice the world clings to — alcohol, pornography, gambling, drugs — is a counterfeit attempt to fill the void that only Allah can fill
- If Islamic law were implemented, trillion-dollar industries built on human weakness would collapse overnight — and that is exactly why there is a war against Islam
- Robert was choosing his death date before Islam saved his life, proving that submission to the Creator is literally a matter of life and death
- Since accepting Islam, Robert has led 12 other Christian pastors to take their shahada, with more testimonies on the way
12 Pastors and Counting
The most stunning revelation of this interview is that Robert’s acceptance of Islam created a ripple effect that has already brought 12 other pastors into the fold. These are men who spent years studying Christian theology at the highest levels, who led congregations and shaped communities, and who ultimately found that the pure monotheism of Islam answered every question that the Trinity could not. The alcohol industry, the gambling industry, the pornography industry — they all stand to lose when people discover that the void in their hearts can only be filled by their Creator, not by devices and substances.
Since I’ve taken shahada, I have led over 12 other pastors into Islam. We’re going to see more testimonies coming. The world fights Islam because if Sharia law came in, all these vice industries would shut down immediately.
