You know what i hate about all these arguments? No side comes to the table with a clear mind. Everyone is prejudiced about an issue and would never accept a dissenting fact. I can't still imagine we still do this back and forth things. Why argue with someone who's not ready to listen. Ain't it like talking to a wall or dead wood? |

Re: Is The Christian God And The Muslim God One ? by Nobody: 10:55am On Aug 18, 2013 |
What Christians call God and what Muslims call Allah, both are creations of the mind and do not exist at all. These are illusions given life by neanderthal fanatics and religious bigots. But God is a plural legion of higher intelligence that are not necessarily outside us but a part of the matrix of energy, the brightest amongst us assume esoteric mandate to join the legion of GOD. Biblical Facts to Ponder on: Let 'us' make man in 'our' own image (Plural Creators NOT one being, therefore whats called God is plural) In the begining was the word (audio-sound energy), and the word was God: Energy is God, God is energy. Since God is Energy, it therefore means God can not be destroyed but converted from one form to another. Therefore Energy is God. Since Energy can be converted from one form to another, it there for means, that the totality of all that there is in the multiverses is called GOD. God means all that there is,including you and I. So, do not look out there to God, you are a part of it. Little wonder the bible says, Ye are Gods and children of most high. Meaning you are the microcosm of the whole. 1 Like |

Frosbel has copied and pasted an epistle. What is his summary - has the quran changed? how many versions exist today? Or is he claiming he knows the way of his Lord and how his God does things? There may be several versions of history about the Quran and you may choose which to prefer. The fact remains that the Book is still 1 today. NO copyright, yet no different version. Is that not wonderful. As for Zaid in your narration, are you saying no one shared his view? Have you not seen hadith about chapter 1 of Quran(Validity of Muslim Prayer), and Quran 112, 113, 114 for protection. It seems you are vast in Hadith but you choose to pick which to focus on. Muslims need to accept a fact that not all Hadiths are authentic- even in Buhari. It is unfortunate but it is a fact. The Good news is the Quran, which will never change is there to check and identify false/Fake Hadiths. In all matters, Quran is the first reference and any hadith that contradicts the Quran is FAKE. So when you read/Hear any Hadith, verify with message from Quran first before broadcasting. Shalom 1 Like |

What makes the Quran Special, besides the style of writing, That an unlettered man could narrate stories of the Past that no one else knows is amazing. that he could give information of the future is wonderful. That the universe in expanding continuously is a knowledge that man has to get to outer space to confirm. Some will claim he copied from the bible and i once asked a friend, why was abraham thrown into the fire and he does not even know Abraham was thrown into any fire. Yet he boasts the Bible has information of history, that the Quran was coppied from the bible. How can a copy have more information than the Original? Which Book explains events of life after death like the Quran, The Quran is a book that has information for Me, for U, for the third person. it is not just for the Muslims but the whole of humanity to guide everyone to salvation. It challenges the unbeliever to see reason that God exists. To see reason to have faith in God. It is not a story of just people of the past. It is a Book for you and Me. There is no chapter that does not have a direct message to the reader. Go and check. It is not filled with stories of the past alone. Gods guidance is the only true one. That you read nairaland Muslims forum is that you heard the message. I wonder what you excuse will be that you cannot think unbiased, clearly. may God guide me and you to the right path. amen |
Re: Is The Christian God And The Muslim God One ? by tbaba1234: 10:17pm On Aug 18, 2013 |
@ Frosbel, Let us teach the christians how to debunk an accusation. I. A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE QUR’AN @ second bolded.. That is a just fat faced lie. Now let's know what happened: Narrated Zaid bin Thabit Al-Ansari: who was one of those who used to write the Divine Revelation: Abu Bakr sent for me after the (heavy) casualties among the warriors (of the battle) of Yamama (where a great number of Qurra' were killed). 'Umar was present with Abu Bakr who said, 'Umar has come to me and said, The people have suffered heavy casualties on the day of (the battle of) Yamama, and I am afraid that there will be more casualties among the Qurra' (those who know the Qur'an by heart) at other battle-fields, whereby a large part of the Qur'an may be lost, unless you collect it. And I am of the opinion that you should collect the Qur'an." Abu Bakr added, "I said to 'Umar, 'How can I do something which Allah's Apostle has not done?' 'Umar said (to me), 'By Allah, it is (really) a good thing.' So 'Umar kept on pressing, trying to persuade me to accept his proposal, till Allah opened my bosom for it and I had the same opinion as 'Umar." (Al-Bukhari, 6.201) A good number of memorizers were killed and Umar expressed fear that some of the book may be lost if it is not compiled. There is no statement saying the bolded. Putting it in a book form was simply a preventative measure for the future of the muslims. This was done within a year of the death of the prophet ((peace be upon him) Lie Number 1 Also, The person chosen to collect the Quran was Zayd ibn Thabbit... Let's learn a bit about Zayd ibn thabbit: Zayd was one of the main scribe of the prophet, meaning he wrote the Quran revelation, meaning he used to write down revelation as indicated in the hadiths below. 'Some people visited Zaid Ibn Thabit (one of the scribes of the Prophet) and asked him to tell them some stories about Allah's Messenger. He replied: "I was his (Prophet's) neighbor, and when the inspiration descended on him he sent for me and I went to him and wrote it down for him..." (Tirmidhi, Mishkat al-Masabih, No. 5823) Who else would be in the best position to compile? Not only that, Zayd himself was a hafz... Meaning he had the whole book memorised: Qatadah asked Anas ibn Malik, "Who memorized the Qur'an at the time of the Prophet?" He replied, "Four, all of whom were from the Ansar[1] .Ubayy ibn Ka`b, Mu`adh ibn Jabal, Zayd ibn Thabit and Abu Zayd."[Bukhari] So not only was he, the chief scribe. He himself had the Quran memorized making him the best candidate for the Job. He also used copies of the fragments already written by him and other scribes. so Abu Bakr said to me (Zaid bin Thabit): You are a wise young man and we do not suspect you (of telling lies or of forgetfulness) and you used to write the Divine Inspiration for Allah's Apostle. Therefore, look for the Qur'an and collect it (in one manuscript)'...So I started locating the Quranic material and collecting it from parchments, scapula, leafstalks of date palms and from the memories of men (who know it by heart)..." (Al-Bukhari, 6.201) Uthman's compilation There are seven dialects in which the Quran can be recited, all of which are correct. Due to the growth and expansion of the muslim state at the time of Uthman, the dialectical differences were leading to arguments as some tribes began to argue/fight that their recitation was the best. This situation got Uthman worried so he compiled the book in one dialect, the original dialect of the prophet. The Quraishi dialect. Note, no content arguments but dialectical. Narrated Anas bin Malik: Hudhaifa bin Al-Yaman came to Uthman at the time when the people of Sham (Syria) and the people of Iraq were waging war to conquer Armenia and Azherbijan. Hudhaifa was afraid of their differences in the recitation of the Quran, so he said to Uthman, 'O chief of the Believers! Save this nation before they differ about the Book (Quran) as Jews and Christians did before'. So Uthman sent a message to Hafsa saying, 'Send us the manuscripts of the Quran so that we may compile the Quranic materials in perfect copies and return the manuscripts to you'. Hafsa sent it to Uthman. 'Uthman then ordered Zaid bin Thabit, 'Abdullah bin Az-Zubair, Said bin Al-As and Abdur Rahman bin Harith bin Hisham to rewrite the manuscripts in perfect copies. Uthman said to the three Quraishi men, 'In case you disagree with[b] Zaid bin Thabit[/b] on any point in the Quran, then write it in their (Quraishi) tongue'. They did so, and when they had written many copies, Uthman sent to every Muslim province one copy of what they had copied and ordered that all the other Quranic materials whether written in fragmentary manuscripts or whole copies, be burnt..." (Bukhari, 6.510) Guess who was in charge AGAIN!!! Same guy who did the job the first time. Zaid Ibn Thabit.. So the same man again, who else is better to ensure that there are no additions but the one who has the whole Quran memorised, was the chief scribe of the prophet (peace be upon him) and was engaged in the first compilation. The best candidate for the job. So what were the controls to ensure that this job is done properly?? i. Two memorizers of the text who heard it directly from the prophet were used and this people must have two witnesses that attest to that fact that he heard it from the prophet. ((Suyuti, Itqan, Vol.I, p.59) ii. This was cross-checked with the hafsa copy which was the first compiled copy. (Ibn Hajar, Bath, IX, p. 15) |

II. DISPUTES AMONG MUHAMMAD’S SCHOLARS The parenthesis bolded made me laugh, is that the writer's interpretation. It shocks me the extent to which people go to lie, the writer is delibrately deceptive which is unfortunate. What makes this lie worse is the deliberate false translation, this is the correct translation: “So conceal the manuscripts! I like it better to read according to the recitation of him (Prophet) whom I love more than that of Zayd Ibn Thabit. By Him besides Whom there is no god! I learnt more than seventy surahs from the lips of the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, while Zayd Ibn Thabit was a youth, having two locks and playing with the youth.” (Ibn Sa'd, Kitab al-Tabaqat al-Kabir, Vol. 2, p.444) That is just disgusting, the least you can do is report the hadith accurately. This is also reported elsewhere: سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ يَقُولُ: " إِنِّي غَالٌّ مُصْحَفِي، فَمَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ يَغُلَّ مُصْحَفًا فَلْيَغْلُلْ، فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ: {وَمَنْ يَغْلُلْ يَأْتِ بِمَا غَلَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ “I heard Ibn Masud saying: I have concealed my Mushaf. Whoever can conceal his mushaf he should conceal it. For Allah says, “And whoever conceals something, he shall come with what he concealed on the Day of Judgement.”” (Kitab al-Masahif, Narration 52) Ibn Masud initially refused to hand over his personal written copy of the Quran to Zayd but he finally relented. Another hadith reports this: “By Allah I will not hand this manuscript over to them. Allah’s Messenger –may Allah bless him- personally taught me more than seventy surahs and now I should hand this (manuscript) over to them? By Allah, I will not give it to them!” (Mustadrak al-Hakim, Hadith 2896. Classified as Sahih by al-Hakim and al-Dhahbi) So he refused to give them his manuscript initially. The reasons from the hadiths are as follows: i. he refused to give up his copy was that it was his personalized copy. ii, Another is the fact that Zaid is far younger than him as indicated in the first hadith. Ibn Masud was one of the much older and respected guys. We know that he later agreed : “Uthman –may Allah be pleased with him- wrote to him (Ibn Masud) bidding him to follow the Companions in what they had agreed upon due to its benefits, (and because it lead to) unity of opinions and the end of differences. So, he inclined to it and agreed to follow and to give up the opposition –may Allah be pleased with them all.” (al-Bidaya wal-Nihaya 7/217) From the above hadith, it is obvious that Ibn Masud relented. The dishonesty of the writer is revealed when he delibrately minsinterpretes than does not mention the resolution. So what the real reaction to the Uthman mushaf? Musab ibn Sad ibn Abi Waqqas said: "I saw the people assemble in large number at Uthman's burning of the prescribed copies (of the Quran), and they were all pleased with his action; not a one spoke out against him". ((Ibn Abi Dawud, p.12) Another narration: Zaid ibn Thabit is reported to have said: "I saw the Companions of Muhammad (going about) saying, 'By God, Uthman has done well! By God, Uthman has done well!" (Naysaburi, al-,Nizam al-Din al-Hasan ibn Muhammad, ). These narrations show that the companions were pleased with Uthman's work, they do not indicate any fight. We still have manuscripts of the Uthmani Quran available today. This link shows where some of the earlist manuscripts, within the first and second century can be found. http://www.islamic-awareness.org/Quran/Text/Mss/museum.html#baq
Again the writer exposes his dishonesty. This hadith does not exist in Bukhari..I have been searching for it for the past 15 minutes. The reference is incorrect and does not exist. Another dishonesty, which Umar?? Because Umar ibn Khattab was dead at the time of Uthman's reign... |
Re: Is The Christian God And The Muslim God One ? by tbaba1234: 11:47pm On Aug 18, 2013 |
IV. MISSING PASSAGES .. This cracked me up. Is it willful deceit or just ignorance? I believe it is the former. I found that this hadith is considered extremely weak based on the chain of narratori by scholars. Ibn Lihiya one of narrators is considered unreliable. If the chain of narrators is weak, a hadith cannot be trusted. Also, Ubayy who this is said to originate from, was part of Uthman's commitee and he never included these so called verses in the text. Ubayy had memorised all of the Quran, so had Zayd. Qatadah asked Anas ibn Malik, "Who memorized the Qur'an at the time of the Prophet?" He replied, "Four, all of whom were from the Ansar[1] .Ubayy ibn Ka`b, Mu`adh ibn Jabal, Zayd ibn Thabit and Abu Zayd." (Bukhari) iThere were more people who memorised the book as well. This list were the ones known by Anas ibn Malik. We know because we are told that many died at yamamah. There are many narrations that indicate many who had memorised it and we know many finished memorising before/after the death of the prophet (peace be upon him): The four Rightly-guided Caliphs, Talhah, Sa`d, ibn Mas`ud, Hudhayfah, Salim, Abu Hurayrah, `Abdullah ibn As�-Sa'ib, `Abdullah ibn `Abbas, `Abdullah ibn `Umar, `Abdullah ibn Az-Zubayr, `Abdullah ibn `Amr ibn Al-`As, `A'ishah, Hafsah, and Umm Salamah. Also, he stated from the Ansar: `Ubadah ibn As-Samit, Mu`adh who was called Abu Halimah, Majma` ibn Jariyah, Fudalah ibn `Ubayd, and Maslamah ibn Mikhlad. (Abu Ubais alQiraat) With all of these people and more who memorised the book fully, not forgeting those who had maybe half or more memorised, All of them reported in authentic narrations, there is no way that narration makes any sense sef! The preservation of the Quran is primarily on the memorisation, that is why millions of muslims have at least a part of the book memorised. " There is otherwise every security, internal and external, that we possess the text which Muhammad himself gave forth and used". (Sir Williams Muir, Life of Mohamet, Vol.I. Introduction) "But there is another proof of the Divinity of the Qur’an; it is the fact that it has been preserved intact through the ages since the time of its Revelation till the present day." (Apologia dell’ Islamismo, translated by Dr. Aldo Caselli under the title An Interpretation of Islam p.57 Muslim Book Mark, 2004) The author should at least be honest. |
Re: Is The Christian God And The Muslim God One ? by Maisuya1: 1:02am On Aug 19, 2013 |
My friend in the uni in those days had committed the whole Quran into memory in at least 3 differnt riwaya (dialects) my neighbour has memorised the whole Quran in at least 2. My point is if our generation of far more weaker eeman compared to the companions of the prophet (peace be upon them) can achieve such remarkable things, do you think the companions who saw, sat heard from the prophet himself (peace be upon him) wouldn't have done better. Burn all the Qurans in the world and see if 7 year olds (no exageration) don't regurgitate it for u verbatim from memory. (That's part of the miracle of the book) |
Re: Is The Christian God And The Muslim God One ? by tbaba1234: 1:10am On Aug 19, 2013 |
III. MISSING CHAPTERS Is the author just been mischievous here?? The hadith is as follows: Abu Harb b. Abu al-Aswad reported on the authority of his father that Abu Musa al-Ash'ari sent for the reciters of Basra. They came to him and they were three hundred in number. They recited the Qur'an and he said: You are the best among the inhabitants of Basra, for you are the reciters among them. So continue to recite it. (But bear in mind) that your reciting for a long time may not harden your hearts as were hardened the hearts of those before you. We used to recite a surah which resembled in length and severity to (Surah) Bara'at. I have, however, forgotten it with the exception of this which I remember out of it:" If there were two valleys full of riches, for the son of Adam, he would long for a third valley, and nothing would fill the stomach of the son of Adam but dust." And we used so recite a slirah which resembled one of the surahs of Musabbihat, and I have forgotten it, but remember (this much) out of it:" Oh people who believe, why do you say that which you do not practise" (lxi 2.) and" that is recorded in your necks as a witness (against you) and you would be asked about it on the Day of Resurrection" (xvii. 13). The narrator Abu Harb b. Abu al-Aswad said: I have, however, forgotten it with the exception of this which I remember out of it. The author said: The early Muslims forgot two surahs (chapters) due to laziness: Again i ask, Is this willful deceit or ignorance? This is written in English. Abu Harb b. Abu al-Aswad forgot something. Na wa o!
More mischief, Why the lies na? This is another narration of the same event: Ibn al-Dhurays has narrated a report of Ibn Umar that he used to dislike the person who said, ‘I have recited the whole of the Qur’an.’ He (Ibn Umar) used to say, ‘But (the reality is) a part of the Qur’an has been abrogated.’ (Fath al-Bari, Dar al-Ma’rifah, Beirut 1379 A.H. vol.9 p.65) Muslims understand that some verses were abrogated at the time of the prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)and nothing is missing from what the prophet left for the muslims. Narrated 'Abdul 'Aziz bin Rufai': Shaddad bin Ma'qil and I entered upon Ibn 'Abbas. Shaddad bin Ma'qil asked him, "Did the Prophet leave anything (besides the Qur'an)?" He replied. "He did not leave anything except what is between the two bindings (of the Qur'an)." Then we visited Muhammad bin Al-Hanafiyya and asked him (the same question). He replied, "The Prophet did not leave except what is between the bindings (of the Qur'an).(Sahih Bukhari, Book 61, Hadith 537) This is a much better translation: Ibn `Umar, who said: ‘None of you should say that he has taken the whole of the Qur’an; how could he know what all of it was (before some of it being abrogated)! Substantial part of the Qur’an has passed him by (due to abrogation)! Let him say instead: ‘I have taken of the Qur’an that which (remained and) became apparent (after abrogation). (Abu Ubaid, Kitab Fada’il-al-Qur’an) An excellent detailed rebuttal, to this garbage can be found here: http://www.letmeturnthetables.com/2012/10/ibn-umar-irreparable-much-quran-loss.html |
Re: Is The Christian God And The Muslim God One ? by tbaba1234: 1:40am On Aug 19, 2013 |
VI. MISSING PHRASES The most tragic thing about this thing is that people believe him. At bolded, Qiraah is not a different reading of the text, it is the same text. There are seven different ways in which the Quran is recited. You would think that someone writing an article on Islam will know that. Qirâ'a pl. -ât recitation, recital (especially of the Koran); reading (also, e.g., of measuring instruments); manner of recitation, punctuation and vocalization of the Koranic text. (The Hans-Wehr Dictionary Of Modern Written Arabic) The evidence provided falls flat on its face because "Yusuf Ali' is talking about a different Qiraah not variation in the text. Second, if we open a modern edition of the Qur’an, we find that Surah 2:238 commands Muslims to “Guard strictly your (habit) of prayers, especially the Middle Prayer; and stand before Allah in a devout (frame of mind).” According to Aisha, Muhammad recited this verse as follows: “Guard strictly (the five obligatory) prayers, and the middle Salat, and Salat Al-Asr. And stand before Allah with obedience” (Jami at-Tirmidhi 2982). Hence, the phrase “and Salat Al-Asr” is missing from modern editions. @ bolded, The middle prayer = Salat al asr. There is no removed phrase . Saying middle prayer and salat al-asr is an unnecessary repetition so this was probably included in parenthesis to illustrate what it refers to. You would think someone writing about Islam would know that. |
Re: Is The Christian God And The Muslim God One ? by tbaba1234: 1:58am On Aug 19, 2013 |
Conclusion Overwhelming evidence shows what frosbel posted is just garbage, filled with lies, ignorance and deception. You might have other issues with Islam, but this is an issue that the proof for the case of preservation are far stronger than the arguments against it. We have seen that the author even resorted to lies to prove a point. As regards the Quran preservation, many non-muslims who have taken the time to do some honest research end up with the same conclusion. It has been remarkable preserved from the time of revelation. A.T. Welch, writes: “For Muslims the Quran is much more than scripture or sacred literature in the usual Western sense. Its primary significance for the vast majority through the centuries has been in its oral form, the form in which it first appeared, as the “recitation” chanted by Muhammad to his followers over a period of about twenty years… The revelations were memorized by some of Muhammad’s followers during his lifetime, and the oral tradition that was thus established has had a continuous history ever since, in some ways independent of, and superior to, the written Quran… Through the centuries the oral tradition of the entire Quran has been maintained by the professional reciters (qurraa). Until recently, the significance of the recited Quran has seldom been fully appreciated in the West.” (The Encyclopedia of Islam, ‘The Quran in Muslim Life and Thought.’) Kenneth Cragg : “…this phenomenon of Quranic recital means that the text has traversed the centuries in an unbroken living sequence of devotion. It cannot, therefore, be handled as an antiquarian thing, nor as a historical document out of a distant past. The fact of hifdh (Quranic memorization) has made the Quran a present possession through all the lapse of Muslim time and given it a human currency in every generation, never allowing its relegation to a bare authority for reference alone.”(Kenneth Cragg, The Mind of the Quran, London: George Allen & Unwin, 1973, p.26.) John Burton, “…the text which has come down to us in the form in which it was organized and approved by the Prophet…. What we have today in our hands is the mushaf of Muhammad. (John Burton, The Collection of the Quran, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1977, p.239-40.) " There is otherwise every security, internal and external, that we possess the text which Muhammad himself gave forth and used". (Sir Williams Muir, Life of Mohamet, Vol.I. Introduction) "But there is another proof of the Divinity of the Qur’an; it is the fact that it has been preserved intact through the ages since the time of its Revelation till the present day." (Apologia dell’ Islamismo, translated by Dr. Aldo Caselli under the title An Interpretation of Islam p.57 Muslim Book Mark, 2004) The author case was built on quick sand and an anti-islam sentiment rather than objectivity.

We seem to have deviated from the original question Is the the Christian God and Muslim God One. From most of the post I have read, most of us agree that they cannot be the same God. The question I think should follow is - Which God is the true God and which one is impersonating? You know a tree by it's fruit. The man who spearheaded Islam - Mohamed clearly revealed the kind of God he is proclaiming.First he lived a very immoral life. He married a total of 16 wives, had two concubines and four lovers. Here are their names; Muhammad's 22 Women: Muhammad's 16 Wives: 1. Khadija 2. Sawda 3. Aesha 4. Omm Salama 5. Halsa 6. Zaynab (of Jahsh) 7. Jowayriyi 8. Omm Habiba 9. Safiya 10. Maymuna (of Hareth) 11. Fatema 12. Hend 13. Asma (of Saba) 14. Zaynab (of Khozayma) 15. Habla 16. Asma (of Noman) Muhammad's 2 concubines/slaves: 1. Mary (the Christian) 2. Rayhana Muhammad's 4 devoted followers who who "gave" themselves to satisfy Muhammad's sexual desires. 1. Omm Sharik 2. Maymuna 3. Zaynab (a third one) 4. Khawla Zaynab of Jahsh was originally Muhammad's adopted son Zaid's wife. The fact that Muhammad took her for himself has been problematic to many people, Muslims included. (God does not break His Own Word and He never changes His mind. Now read Sura 33:36-38). The very life of Mohammed reveals the God he is proclaiming. In contrast, Jesus who laid the foundation for the Church lived a sinless life. If Mohammed is truly sent by God, he should bring hope of salvation to his followers. His statement he made in the Qur'an point to the fact that his followers are hopeless. He himself is not sure of his own destiny. I am no bringer of new-fangled doctrine among the messengers, nor do I know what will be done with me or with you. I follow but that which is revealed to me by inspiration; I am but a Warner open and clear."Sura 46 verse 9 In contrast, Jesus was sure of where he came from and where his followers will go. There is hope of salvation in Christ. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16) Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 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. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. (John 14:1-3) Lastly, Mohammed is dead but Jesus is alive forevermore. Let no man deceive you. "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; (1 Timothy 2:5) Judge for yourself, which God is the true God and which one is impersonating? 4 Likes |

In addition to the above let this be known to our muslim brothers and others in the house that we belief in the bible not because of what is written therein but because of the evidence of what is written therein. The taste of the pudding is the eating thereof. I am actually on my kneels as I am typing this, surrender your life to Jesus Christ. Don't mind the christians or anybody that has been discouraging you.This may be the last chance. There is no big deal I struggle against this truth for long myself, but the bitter truth is you just can't do anything against the TRUTH.The evidence of the Lordship of Jesus Christ is too overwhelming to deny.

The question I think should follow is - Which God is the true God and which one is impersonating?excellent @Op! Jesus also said in John 14:6 that; "I am THE WAY, THE TRUTH and THE LIFE: no man cometh unto the Father but by me". (Note the definite article used with Way, Truth and Life). Man has (in his quest for God) created several WAYs, (what he calls) Truths and Life (a consciousness or awareness of the supernatural with which is attached fear or reverence in worship) but Jesus The Christ is saying here: "Hey! Quit your search, I am The Way, The Truth and The Life you seek!" I pray that the Lord opens the eyes of understanding of whoever stumbles upon this thread in Jesus' Name! Amen! 1 Like |
