That Togolese footballer, Emmanuel Adebayor converted to Islam is no longer news. The news had gone viral and the Aston Villa bound striker had also confirmed it. Adebayor has now come out to fully address the issue by giving reasons why he converted to Islam. He justified his new found faith by saying Muslims are like Jesus and also described them as” truer followers of Christ”. Read below:- 1. Jesus (pbuh) taught that there is only One God and Only God should be worshipped as taught in Deut 6:4, Mark 12:29. Muslims also believe this as taught in the Qur’an verse 4:171. 2. Jesus (pbuh) didn’t eat pork as taught in Leviticus 11:7 , and neither do Muslims as taught in the Qur’an verse 6:145. 3. Jesus (pbuh) greeted with the words “as salaamu alaikum” (Peace be with you) in John 20:21. Muslims also greet each other this way. 4. Jesus (pbuh) always said “God Willing” (inshallah), Muslims say this too before doing anything as taught in the Qur’an verses 18:23-24. 5. Jesus (pbuh) washed his face, hands, and feet before praying. The Muslims do the same. 6. Jesus (pbuh) and other prophets of the Bible prayed with their head to the ground (see Matthew26:39). Muslims do too as taught in the Qur’an verse 3:43. 7. Jesus (pbuh) had a beard and wore a throbe. It is Sunnah for Muslim men to do the same. 8. Jesus (pbuh) followed the law and believed in all the prophets, (see Matthew 5:17). Muslims do too as taught in the Qur’an verses 3:84, and 2:285. 9. Jesus’ mother Maryam (pbut) dressed modestly by fully covering her body and wearing a headscarf (hijab) as found in 1 Timothy 2:9, Genesis 24:64-65, and Corinthians 11:6. Muslim women modestly dress the same as taught in the Qur’an verse 33:59. 10. Jesus (pbuh) and other prophets of the Bible fasted up to 40 days (see Exodus 34:28, Daniel 10:2-6. 1Kings 19:8, and Matthew 4:1-Muslims do so also during the month of Ramadan. Muslims are required to fast the full obligatory 30 days (see Qur’an 2:183), and others take it a step further by fasting an additional 6 days to increase their rewards. 11. Jesus (pbuh) taught to say “Peace to this house” when entering it (see Luke 10:5), and to also greet the people in the house with “peace be unto you”. Muslims do exactly what Jesus did and taught. When we enter our homes and the homes of others we say “Bismillah” and also greet with “as salaamu alaikum” (peace be upon you) as taught in the Qur’an verse 24:61. 12. Jesus (pbuh) was circumcised. Circumcision is 1 of the 5 fitrah in Islam, so Muslim men are required to be circumcised. According to the Bible in Luke 2:21, Jesus was eight days old when he was circumcised. In the Torah, Allah/God stated to the Prophet Abraham (pbuh) that it is an “Everlasting covenant” (see Genesis 17:13). In the Qur’an verse 16:123 Muslims are required to follow the religion of Abraham. The Prophet Muhammad (saws) said, “The Prophet Abraham circumcised himself when he was eighty years old.” (see Sahih hadith Bukhari, Muslim, and Ahmad). 13. Jesus (pbuh) spoke aramaic and called God”Elah”, which is pronounced the same as “Allah”. Aramaic is an ancient, Biblical language. It is one of the Semitic languages that also include Hebrew, Arabic, Ethiopic and the ancient a$$yrian and Babylonian language of Akkadian. The Arabic”Elah” and the Arabic “Allah” are the same. Recently, through his instagram page, Adebayor wished everyone a happy Eid Mubarak along with a photo of himself wearing the popular Arabian white thaw and an ankle-length white shirt.

I didn't bother to read past few lines.

But if Muslims are like Jesus why go for those that are LIKE? Shows Adebayor's stupidity No wonder he isn't performing well on the pitch.

Why

Esdb3:


Why

It's pointless

Why is he trying this much to justify his action
Seem to me like he's trying to make himself feel better.

Who cares if he's a Christian or a Muslim or even becomes a pagan?

Your religion is your life and you owe no one an explanation... just make sure you are doing it right.

GBAM! Everyone with their cross.

1. Jesus NEVER encouraged blood shedding or an eye for an eye.
2. Jesus NEVER believe in forceful conversion of people to follow his ways.
3. Jesus discouraged the stoning of an adulteress, offering her a second chance.
4. Jesus' cardinal principle is LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF.

Luke 6:40 (KJV):The disciple is not above his master: but everyone that isperfectshall be as his master.

however in aramaic the bolded word is actually MUSLIM:
"Ein talmeed na'leh 'al rabbo; shekken kal adam she'MUSHLAM yihyeh k'rabbo."
The most accurate and honest translation forthe Aramaic 'mushlam' is none other than the Arabic, 'muslim'.The Hebrew word "mushlam" comes from the root "Sh L M". "Shalom" which comes from the same root means "peace". The Arabic word "muslim" comes from the root "S L M". "Salam" means "peace". "Salem" means "safe".see the Aramaic bible society ,

My dear footballer, ONLY OUR LORD JESUS DIED AND RESURRECTED. THERE IS NO OTHER god in this entire world that on any account ever resurrected.

No account has it been recorded that OUR LORD'S JESUS CHRIST'S BONES WERE EVER DISCOVERED.

HE REMAINS THE LORD ABOVE ALL OTHER GODS and THAT IS A FACT

Kindly give us John 3:16,17 in aramaic and tell us if muslims believe that too.

Did adebayor really write this? When did he write it? The 13 reasons have been online since 2012? Cant you people stop lying. Was adebayor ever a Christ follower? Or just a christian in name? When i used to watch football, i knew hin and his hairstyle. Will any Jesus follow ever have such hairstye? Why all the celebrations and lies all over as if any change has really taken place? Even if the whole world turns to muslims, God will still remain God and His judgement will not change!
