@pilgrims We don tire for your going in circles without saying anything, you may a personal issue with babs, I am less concerned. Come to think of it, you of all people have been portraying yourself as an intellect, sending posts in all threads and even the one that is none of your business and here you are being asked questions, decided to turn it to personal issue. Wo baby, Babs is here for dialogue and needs your response. It is very glaring that the bible you are having now is not the same message Moses and Jesus came with because it was compiled years after their demise and none of the so called authors were inspired hence the glaring contradictions. So please leave babs out of this and answer those questions.

@babs787, @pilgrims
We don tire for your going in circles without saying anything, You interprete it that way because you refuse to face up to simple truth. If you're hoping that I would fall into your deception of denying simply statements in the Bible, you would have to wait until the sun freezes. you may a personal issue with babs, I am less concerned. I have never had a personal issue with anyone - and you're only hoping that is the way people will read it.  Come to think of it, you of all people have been portraying yourself as an intellect, sending posts in all threads and even the one that is none of your business and here you are being asked questions, decided to turn it to personal issue. Wo baby, Babs is here for dialogue and needs your response. If that is your way of silently acknowledging that you often throw bloviates which you mistake for 'intellect', we can now understand why you of all people have had nothing of your own to think through other than plagiarizing illiterate posts and pretending they are yours!  It is very glaring that the bible you are having now is not the same message Moses and Jesus came with because it was compiled years after their demise and none of the so called authors were inspired hence the glaring contradictions. I hear. That is why you have been trying to force-fit Muhammad into the "glaring" Bible that you have rejected. Your hypocrisy no get rival.  So please leave babs out of this and answer those questions. When you wake up from your slumber, read through this one again: ( http://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-90634.0.html#msg1648175) Cherio.

@olabowale, The few minutes I have left online will be enough to rush through yours: @PLigrim.1: I read your long entry in the thread which you directed to. In my observation: matt; 28;20 said that Jesus is with them till the end of time. If we look at this, we will find that it talks about what he left behind, meaning his message. It is from this left behind message you know about jesus. Jesus is not with you physically now. Therefore, is there any change in letter, word, sentence, and even the whole books(as in what the catholic has and the protestant don't)? However the Qur'an of Muhammad, since that will be your surtle suggestion, I will help you to it, at least from the caliphate of Uthman, has been consistent! This will destroy your guaranty of certainty. I would simply say that your understanding is deeply flawed. If you don't understand an issue, ask Christians what it means - and never assume to interpret the same Bible which you Muslims have rejected and do not believe in. Jesus' presence has always been with Christians. He said so by Himself, and other verses confirmed the same: (a) Matt. 18:20 -- "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." (b) 1 John 4:13 -- "Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit. (c) 1 John 3:24 -- "And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us." If you persist in your problem of the Muslim attitude of making selective reading ( choosing some to accept and rejecting others of equal importance), there's really no point of entry for you to engage in discussing what you have already made up your mind to DENY! Olabowale, denying the Bible is of no value to me - it has never worked for me, and will never do so. When you are ready to be honest enough to acknowledge the simple truth that you find in the Bible, then we shall have occasion to discuss. For now, I'm simply not interested in keeping up this gimmick of being entertained by Muslim denials in order to accredit the Qur'an. That is a hideous duplicity - and yes, such attitudes will only destroy any guarantee of certainty I might have had in Islam!!

@enitan2002, There's no shame, but you should leave the blabbing machine to fool himself to the full. It is not as if there are no answers at all to his so-called question; but I have refused to offer him any more answers until he grows up and begins answering questions as well from others. Which one of you would suppose that several times when he proffered questions, pilgrim.1 has not answerd them? Why are you guys pretending to look the other way and allow him to continue in his duplicity? I've stated quite simply the reason why I would not entertain his Islamic fraud UNTIL he stops the hideous game of " oya answer me first. . . after that, you MUST answer more questions" - when he himself NEVER seeks to answers questions apart from plaglarizing materials that are not his own and LYING that they are his "replies"? Bros, I'm just having a break; but I'D advise you to simply crawl out and let the blabber sup up his imbroglio to the full. When he obliges answers to questions presented to him, I will then give him answers for any further concerns he may cop out from whereever he ferrets them. Ciao.

Without a doubt. . . Horus has not a shred of wisdom.  1. Did Jesus read the bible, provide your proof?
The "bible" as we have it today in compilation form was not in existence during the time of Jesus Christ. Rather it was in the form of scrolls or parchments as you find those of the dead sea scrolls with each book separate from the other. the books of the new testament could NOT have been finished before Christ's death, resurrection and ascension into heaven: Mathew, Mark, Luke and John all write about Christ's death and resurrection . . . could Jesus have been reading the book of Mathew 28 when he wasnt even dead yet? Paul did not get converted until well after the day of Pentecost . . . how then could Jesus have had a copy of romans to read? Peter did not start his ministry until after the pentecost . . . how could Jesus have had a copy of I peter 2 to read? But there is enough evidence to prove that Jesus did infact read copies of the books of the old testament prophets. I'll provide quotes in the next answers. 2. Was he given the bible or the gospel?
Sadly Horus gullibly swallows the propaganda that mohammed spread for his own selfish and wicked end. Jesus Christ came NOT with any books but to shed His blood on the cross as a sacrifice for sin and to reconcile us who were once dead but now live unto Himself. Just food for thought: is it possible that Jesus Christ would be "given" the gospel of Mathew that speaks about His death? Was Jesus Christ "given" the story of Lazarus, or that of john the baptist or Herod or the woman at the well of Samaria? These are actual recorded events . . . they were not fairy tales! 3. Did he read the bible or book of Esaias?
YES! 4. Is the book of Esaias part of the bible?
Yes. the book of Isaiah. 5. If the answer to 4 above is in affirmative, please where is that book in the bible?
QUOTEMatthew 3:3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.REFERENCEIsaiah 40:3 The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.Remember that the books of Isaiah and Mathew were written several centuries apart by completely different people who never lived to see each other. Remember that before the compilation of the bible, these two books were completely separate scrolls and YET they all say the same thing. hopefully Horus, Blabs787 and combatant can now see the answers they constantly claim not to see.

You see folks, the problem with Muslims and the Bible especially those like babatunde(?) and pa Olabowale is this malaise, no let me rephrase, this mentality of applying Islamic thinking into the Scriptures. Eyin eyan, that is wuru wuru to the answer. I'm sorry to say, with this attitude, you would still be looking for "answers" when answers have been offered.

Did Jesus Christ read the Gospel?
The Gospel is about the life of Jesus Christ, remember the Holy Bible is divided into two, The Old Testament and The New Testament. So in essence, some of His Miracles and His Sayings are just confirmations of prophecies in the Old Testament.
What else do you want to know?

@Ndipe: The verse in the NT, that says Jesus went about the places preaching the Gospel, what does that verse mean? It is not teaching the OT and definately not teaching about his life, according to you. Since the four gospels in the Bible, never mind others equally important, but the christians refused to accept, are about his life. Which Gospel did he teach then?

The Gospel, commonly called the "Good News" is about the message of Salvation that Jesus Christ brought for us with His Blood on the cross. Now, when Jesus Christ went around preaching the Gospel, He was essentially telling people that He was the Only Way to God. He preached Repentance to the people and emphasized that He was the Only Way to God.

In the face of glaring evidence some people will still be holding on to a false sense of defence. Muslims know that their book cannot pass any test given to it. Talk about History, the Present, and the Future (Prophecy). Talk about Creation, about morals and love, their book is found wanting.
Its historical records are a pure falalcy! In cration, it is the poorest book that attempts to give dtails of creation especially as to their god, mountains dropped to stabilise the earth. In prophecy, Mohammad could not see the future and foretell of things to come with such an acurancy as we have in the bible. Talk about science, it has no clue, medicine, zero. Morals ah! With all this hate, racism, the quran is replete with them. Talk about simplicity of doctrines, all this face ast, fly in your ear or cup, yawning of th devil, and ,
vry silly things in deed. Very absurd religion undoubtedly.

@Cgift: Go look into your book. See the many discrepancies. Within the NT, paul disagrees with Jesus and others who knew Jesus. Well we do not have the writing of Jesus or the Gospel that he preached about the places he went. So Paul and others like him are the latest in town. Even then, christianity has no single Bible as the standard bearer from the onset. The muslims just have look and point to you. Between your rank, there are so many diffrent types, one not totally agreeing with another. Even your learned are saying that, while they dispute amongst themselves.
How then you are saying all these things? Tell me from the Bible, what should be the response of the community to illegal sex, even though consentual, what about rape, stealing when there is no need ti do that, what about any form of immorality? Just one!
In the OT, the rules of communual relationship is changed, even though Jesus did not dare todo it, except to fulfill it. All its jots, etc. Then paul changed the rule and pattern of Jesus, which then allowed him to change the Laws of Moses, etc. maybe thats how you Yoruba, who is not from the children of israel got in under amazing grace. There used to be a film of that title, in the past.
Who is unjust, the one who changed the laws of God which were given to prophets, or the prophets who delivered and followed the Laws? The laws which a later prophet never dared to change, but fulfilled even the jot in the laws. Yet this Eraser of God's laws claimed the prophet that fulfilled even the Jot in the laws is God Almighty!

Sorry my guy. I am deeply sorry to disappoint you. Oh! Your reasoning is that any religion where there is no jungle justice on day-to-day issues of life is not a true religion. Mohammad must have vomitted you from his belly because you are probablty as violent as he was. Now I'm afraid, you might be the one to call for the hads of nairalanders who oppose Islam!  Your allah may allow jungle justice (Sharia), our God does not. They brought a woman caught in the act of adultery to Jesus for sentencing. What did he do, he asked them who amongst you without a sin should cast the first stone. They all withdrew one after the other from first to the last. None could! Jesus did not condemn her. He delivered her! What a great grace! Unmatched in history! He came to set free! Not to condemn and put in bondage. He came for love not hate. Men got their dead brought back to life. Not the other way round. He preached love and repentance from evil and sin. What is the hope of a sinner in Islam? Nothing but death, punishment! What evil religion is that? You steal and they amputate your arm - in this 21st Century? can't you just reason for once and agree that your religion belongs to the cave men and not the modern man? can't you see that your religion is so uncivilised. We preach peace, love to the sinner, you preach death and condemnation. May be when your son steals and they amputate his arm or leg then you will feel it! Our Jesus is LOVE. God is LOVE! He Loves! Let that sink into your spirit. He loves you too! With all the amputees you have in the north of Nigeria, how has that reduced iniquity or crime? can't you se you are just deceiving yourselves and punishing the poor who have no connections to stop that evil they call sharia? Ola, please don't tell me you are that barbaric. Islam and Sharia should just be annihilated. The time of their destruction shall soon come. God will do this in His time. For sinners, if that is your concern, Christ said, let the two of them grow together until the time of harvest when he shall separate the what from the shaft. You are not that patient are you?

@Cgift: Evidently, the typical Yoruba christian, which you are, does not know that there are norther Christians. Islam, contrary to the belief of Nigerians, is not a northern Nigerian religion. The religion is not even Arab people religion. These two people are not 100% muslims.
Unfortunately, you just talk and have no cultural sense. My children, are cultured in a manner that, InshaAllah, will not steal, and there is no fear of them being amputated.
However, in Islam, Allah's mercy is limitless, hence a first time offender is not usually exposed. However, when the type of bad behaviour, like stealing, becomes a second nature of the thief, he becomes careless. Hence, he has no moral compass to distinguish this evil behaviour from what is morally sound. God Almighty, may, if He wills, expose the thief, to be caught, in the act of thievery. The amputees, are not first time offenders. If the Northern Nigerians muslims practise Shariah, properly, there is no blame in the judgements handed down. I do not live in Nigeria and am not a scholar of Islam to seriously comment.
What I know, however, is enough to make me live a relatively honest life. I do not engage in any of the others may engage in. For sure, there is a rule that the Muslims have to follow; it involves in Shariah court, witness and hearing procedure before decisions and carrying out the justice, about any offense.
You failed to realise that Jesus himself did not throw any stone at the woman, he used wisdom and mercy from his Lord Allah to extracate, from the peril. Yet the condition of Jesus , all along was that all the laws and rulings given to Moses were to be fulfilled including the littlest of jot! Moses law called for the stoning. So why didn't Jesus stone the woman, himself? Except, there was part of Moses law that allows for mercy and Jesus used that part, which the Jews had always neglected. Afterall, Moses expressed mercy, from his Lord, Allah, toward Pharaoh, for a while, before the drowning at the sea.
In any case, if Jesus, showed mercy on the poor and helpless woman, it was not Jesus' sole perogative. It was from his Lord, who had instructed him so.
Muhammad and his supporters, upon conquering Makka, did not visit a wholesale slaughter upon his former arch enemy, who as a people ran him and his supporters out their native city. He declared general amnesty over the city and that has never been equal in the history of mankind! It is a whole city, full of people who had offended him and treated him terribly.
Yet, Muhammad, like Jesus in the Qur'an, was not arrogant and not proud. But gave all the glory th his Creator.

All these false attempts to interject Allah into the bible.
The Jews do not recognize allah neither do they consider him the "god" of their old testament prophets. No where do we have any record that Moses and co prayed to allah. Muslims insist that arabic is the "divine language" of allah . . . but from archeology and history we know that Arabic is not a language of the jews so neither Moses nor Jesus Christ could ever have spoken arabic during their time. How then were they communicating with allah? In Aramaic and hebrew?
