All this and more contradictions in the bible have been answered or explained. Dont be suprised anyone they have been around for years (since the 1960s) and since then have been answered. Moslems and skeptics just keep bringing it every day as if its a new information.

@babyosisi,

Glad you observed that. Perhaps it is just some sort of sport he enjoys.
Re: Contradictions In The Bible by Nobody: 7:51pm On May 07, 2007
my dear.
He goes around parading his "great knowledge of the Bible" and then starts crying Mohammed mohammed when people strike back and tell it like it is.
Re: Contradictions In The Bible by pilgrim1(f): 8:58pm On May 07, 2007
We're used to such. The typical Muslim way of reasoning is to skit around issues and then praise themselves over issues they really can't figure out in the first place. I know this is not new to you and most people who've read him; but then one can forgive him for simply displaying what I was well acquainted with as a former Muslim.

I weep for your soul. Did I complain to you in the first place? Are you not the one that extended handshake when you felt that your falsehood has been exposed and you kept apologising? Never mind, you will explain them to me one after the other. Apart from the 101 posted then, I have another list with me here which will be served you one after the other.





@Pilgrim


I will be serving them to you one after the other and we will see who will run or beat about the bush

Well, go on and continue your expedition, by the time I stir your own bees, your buttocks cannot contain the stings. When you deride us, other muslims laugh but a single thread, and they wept.

Just a tip of the ice berg


It is clearly evident in the Quran that Muhammad understood himself as being the warner to the people of Arabia - a people who did not have a prophet of their own to relate to them the universal message about the unity of God and His claims as it had been revealed to other nations previously. Now God had sent him to speak to them in their own tongue:


"By the book that makes things clear, - We have made it a Quran in Arabic, that ye may be able to understand."
(Sura 43:3).
"Before this was the Book of Moses as a guide and a mercy; And this book confirms (it) in the Arabic tongue."
(Sura 46:12).

"Thus have We sent by inspiration to thee an Arabic Quran: That thou mayest warn the mother of cities (i.e. Mecca) and all around her." (Sura 42:7).

"Verily this is a Revelation from the Lord of the Worlds: With it came down the Spirit of Faith and Truth to thy heart and mind that thou mayest admonish (warn) in the perspicuous Arabic tongue. Without doubt it is (announced) in the mystic Books of former peoples." (Sura 26:192-196).

"An Arabic Quran have We sent down that you may understand it." (Sura 12:2).

Read also: Suras 16:103; 41:3-4, 43-44; 39:28; 20:113.

Universality for Islam and the Quran, as claimed by Muslims today, is contradicted by the Quran wherein Muhammad is seen as a warner to the Arabic speaking people, particularly Mecca. The term "Arabic Quran" obviously presupposes at least one other Quran (=reading or recitation) and not doubt refers to the Hebrew "Quran" and, if you wish, the Greek "Quran" (being the Old and New Testaments). These "Qurans" are not invalidated by an Arabic Quran, but rather confirmed. There is only one problem: an Arabic Quran was not announced in the "mystic Books of former peoples". To say the least, there is no such book available today, neither was it known at the time of Muhammad.

Another very interesting aspect is that in the pages of both the Quran and the Bible Jesus enjoys a uniqueness that elevates Him above all other prophets. We very much recommend the booklet "The Uniqueness of Jesus in the Quran and the Bible" by John Gilchrist. In it the attributes of Jesus are investigated in depth, all of which are absent in all the other prophets:


He was born of a virgin (Suras 19:16-34, 21:91);

He was sinless (faultless) (Sura 19:19) in contrast to:

Adam Suras 2:36, 7:22-23
Abraham Sura 26:82
Moses Sura 28:15-16
Jonah Sura 37:142
David Sura 38:24-25
Muhammad Suras 40:55, 47:19, 48:1-2, 33:36-38;
and all other men;



He ascended to heaven (Suras 4:158, 3:55):


He will return to this earth to judge mankind, (Sura 43:61); and, we may add:

That He came with signs to prove His identity (heal the blind and lepers; raise the dead). (Sura 5:113).
Indeed, Jesus over and above His uniqueness is universal, even according to the Quran:


"We made her (Mary) and her son (Jesus) a sign for all people." (Sura 21:91).
Surely that should give all people food for thought, particularly those who believe in the message of the Quran.

None of the above can be invalidated by the statement:


"Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but (he is) the Apostle of Allah, and the Seal of the Prophets." (Sura 33:40). Yusuf Ali's Commentary on this verse explains it as follows:

"When a document is sealed it is complete and there can be no further addition. The holy Prophet Muhammad closed the long line of Apostles."
This is in keeping with the Islamic concept that the Quran had to replace former scriptures, because of their incompleteness and corruption and that Muhammad, being the last of the prophets, is the greatest of them all.

This interpretation is, however, contradicted by other verses:


"Say ye: 'We believe in Allah, and the revelation given to us, and to Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob and the Tribes, and that given to Moses, and Jesus, and that given to all prophets from their Lord:
WE MAKE NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ONE AND ANOTHER OF THEM." (Sura 2:136).


"Say: 'We believe in Allah, and in what has been revealed to us and what is revealed to Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, and the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between one and another among them , " (Sura 3:84).

It is only later in his career that Muhammad extends his call and apostleship universally (Sura 34:28).

We consequently conclude: Islamic theology that juggles Jesus into second place, or creates an image of Jesus that does not coincide with the teaching of the Gospel, or even with that of the Quran, is the result of embarrassment over the obviously different position that Jesus had in relation to the other prophets, for Jesus was not a prophet within the normally accepted meaning of the word, but the only Salvation that God ever offered to mankind. This is decidedly expressed in His very name Jesus (=salvation).

The Bible claims universality for Jesus as the only liberator from sin, if sin is properly understood (John 14:6, Acts 4:12 and many other passages). The uniqueness of the life of Jesus and the evidences in support of the divine source of the Bible provide sufficient proof for this claim. Why should any man seek help elsewhere?

Empty barrel cheesy. I am ready and looking forward to that. Is that a threat? grin. Dont worry, I am threading where I have little knowledge and you will add to my knowledge



@somze

While u are at it why don't we talk about the contradictions in the Koran.
http://answering-islam.org/Quran/Contra/index.html



Hope you are not trying to divert the topic.

This is the exact thing I told some of your folks that they are free to lift from anywhere that they should be rest assured that they would be refuted.

It seems you are just from another planet. If you have been here and reading posts, you would have read it that your sister babyosis went to her authors of the same site you posted. Her authors in the like of silas, chowdry etc failed her and kept going round in circles without saying anything reasonable. Again one of your sisters went there again trying to provide explanation to what cannot be explained. You also went there, lifted from there. I told babyosis then that my own 101 was different from the replied to by her authors. I still have others with which will be served you soon.

As for the link you posted, here is the link containing detailed response to your questions as against those edited by your authors.

Here is your link
http://answering-islam.org/Quran/Contra/index.html



Here is my detailed response
http://www.answering-christianity.com/quran/quranerr.htm


So when you are through with those, call on me.


As for pilgrim, I will supply her the contradictions different from the above and she will have to explain them to me because I am here to learn cheesy cheesy.

Truth has come, falsehood is bound to perish.

Peace

That is wonderfull. I knew the quran mentions the bible and Christ but i'm amazed how much it mentions and what exactly it says. Thanks

@babs787
Before going on to the contradictions of both the bible and the quran, do you care to respond to nossycheek's previous post on statements from the quran about The bible, Jesus and mohammed? Or would it be better for you to simply ignore it?

The only reason I was willing to cut Muhammad a slack was that we had exposed him enough,his deeds are now well known to the forumites and secondly for the sake of people like Mukina who though a Muslim would not stand pedophilia,being scourged or polygamy.

I know my writings are not palatable to her.
I wanted us to stop the mudslinging but no where did I deny my facts.
get that into that skull of yours,dear
You have said and done nothing but merely expose your ignorance on issues.

And like I told you before,if you ever get your paws on a 6 or 9 year old,may they wither before you get to your menene.
That is one example you must not follow grin

@babyosis


Truth stands out from falsehood. This thread will now be for biblical contradictions since nossycheeks has opened one for quran too. So no diversion as you normally do when you have nothing to say. You have even showed it in your last post.
Re: Contradictions In The Bible by somze(f): 5:16pm On May 08, 2007
I will not die of laughter. babs787, i actually went to the site you prescribed to see his rebuttals and the following are what I noticed -

I got to understand Jochen Katz's reason for not removing some contradictions. As far as he puts the link where these contradictions has been responded to by muslims, i see no problem. However this is one reason why i think they should be left on - I was looking at your guys answer to the first contradiction - Who suffers loss if Muhammad was wrong? http://www.answering-christianity.com/quran/astray_rebuttal.htm I do not understand (or know how the author understands) which verses are meant for him and which ones are for all muslims. It makes God seem wrong. If you are sincere you'd know its not clear at all, even to you. So i'm still having problems, trying to understand a verse that i cant. My best bet is to do another research by searching another site or you could care to explain.

looking at his links on women, i can pick up a lot of cases where the author was misguided or plain wrong. There are however some cases i can not explain but will read through the passages in the bible again. Please reply my previous post (about nossycheeks) then we can talk on this very contradiction and the women.
Re: Contradictions In The Bible by somze(f): 5:51pm On May 08, 2007
Also i was looking at the your author's claim that the bible is corrupt from deut 4:2 and jer 8:8. Cant remember his link, mistakenly closed it. Will search for it. but still this claim is simple laughable. Let me explain this one now -

Deuteronomy 4 (NIV)
Obedience Commanded

1 Hear now, O Israel, the decrees and laws I am about to teach you. Follow them so that you may live and may go in and take possession of the land that the LORD, the God of your fathers, is giving you. 2 Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the LORD your God that I give you.

3 You saw with your own eyes what the LORD did at Baal Peor. The LORD your God destroyed from among you everyone who followed the Baal of Peor, 4 but all of you who held fast to the LORD your God are still alive today.

5 See, I have taught you decrees and laws as the LORD my God commanded me, so that you may follow them in the land you are entering to take possession of it.

Explanation - people are advised to obey exactly the commands God gave out and not disobey hence verses 3 and 4. When you disobey God you literally write your own commands - add to His. You can also explain 2 literally - dont add your own instructions to Gods written laws in the bible,

Jeremiah 8

1 " 'At that time, declares the LORD, the bones of the kings and officials of Judah, the bones of the priests and prophets, and the bones of the people of Jerusalem will be removed from their graves. 2 They will be exposed to the sun and the moon and all the stars of the heavens, which they have loved and served and which they have followed and consulted and worshiped. They will not be gathered up or buried, but will be like refuse lying on the ground. 3 Wherever I banish them, all the survivors of this evil nation will prefer death to life, declares the LORD Almighty.'
Sin and Punishment
4 "Say to them, 'This is what the LORD says:
" 'When men fall down, do they not get up?
When a man turns away, does he not return?

5 Why then have these people turned away?
Why does Jerusalem always turn away?
They cling to deceit;
they refuse to return.

6 I have listened attentively,
but they do not say what is right.
No one repents of his wickedness,
saying, "What have I done?"
Each pursues his own course
like a horse charging into battle.

7 Even the stork in the sky
knows her appointed seasons,
and the dove, the swift and the thrush
observe the time of their migration.
But my people do not know
the requirements of the LORD.

8 " 'How can you say, "We are wise,
for we have the law of the LORD,"
when actually the lying pen of the scribes
has handled it falsely?


9 The wise will be put to shame;
they will be dismayed and trapped.
Since they have rejected the word of the LORD,
what kind of wisdom do they have?

10 Therefore I will give their wives to other men
and their fields to new owners.
From the least to the greatest,
all are greedy for gain;
prophets and priests alike,
all practice deceit.

11 They dress the wound of my people
as though it were not serious.
"Peace, peace," they say,
when there is no peace.

12 Are they ashamed of their loathsome conduct?
No, they have no shame at all;
they do not even know how to blush.
So they will fall among the fallen;
they will be brought down when they are punished,
says the LORD.

13 " 'I will take away their harvest,
declares the LORD.
There will be no grapes on the vine.
There will be no figs on the tree,
and their leaves will wither.
What I have given them
will be taken from them. [a] ' "

Jer 8:8 (NLT)
How can you say, "We understand his laws," when your teachers have twisted them up to mean a thing I never said

Isreal disobeyed God and he metted out their purnishment (Deut 4 warned this). Verse 8 of the chapter shows clearly that even teachers (or scribes) were involved in taking the people astray by instructing things that God did not say. The verse's figurativeness is implied by the rest of the chapter and how you can link this to the fact that the bible is corrupt is absurd. These scribes did not rewrite jeremiah or any other part of the bible. They were then clearly stupid to leave this verse out. They instructed the people wrongly and encouraged their disobedience. Other part of the bible prophetical write-ups (isaiah, ezekiel, jeremiah) around this period confirm the facts.

If anything this verse warns what can happen on earth when a nation choose to disobey God.

@ Rhea

The bible is not read like a poem. You don't isolate/extract quotes and make conclusions with them just like most warehouse pastors do. Read the whole quotation or better still the adjoining story in its fullness to understand where the author is coming from. Let me demonstrate with the first line of what you found. Quotes in red are from your thread.


God is satisfied with his works (Gen 1:31)

Gen 1:31: God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.

Gen 6:6 God is dissatisfied with his works

Gen 6:5-6 says: The LORD saw how great man's wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time. The LORD was grieved that he had made man on the earth, and his heart was filled with pain.

I could go on and on. Do not be misled by non-believers. The bible is as clear as the interpretation you give it.

Thank you for your comments. cool God bless you! People should know that the bible is different from any magazine. It is one thing to read the bible, and it is another thing entirely to understand the Words of the bible. Also, it is God that gives people the privilege to understand the Words in the bible.

I'm sorry if I didn't quite understand what you mean by the highlighted statement above. What Testament were you referring to??

Satan was mentioned in both the Old and New Testaments -

OT >>

Job 1:6 - 'Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.'

Psa. 109:6 - 'Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.'

Zech. 3:1 - 'And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.'

--------------------

NT >>

Matt. 4:10 - 'Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.'

Mark 1:13 - 'And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.'

Rev. 20:2 - 'And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years.'
Re: Contradictions In The Bible by thesilent1(m): 7:32am On May 11, 2007
pilgrim,

sorry, i think i should have explained what i meant properly; you never hear anyone accusing satan of evil as then, they thought both good and evil came from God.
It is only in the new testament that Jesus defines who is love and who is evil.

sorry if not explained properly.
Re: Contradictions In The Bible by pilgrim1(f): 7:43am On May 11, 2007
Lol @thesilent1,

Actually, the book of Job clearly shows Satan in his evil adventures.

Other places where he is mentioned in the OT reveal the same thing.

The NT unveils him in more detail; and what I have found of particular and amazing interest is that only in the NT are people given the power to cast out demons. I stand to be corrected on this, but I haven't yet come across any verse where anyone cast out a demon. This reveals the awesome power that we have in the Name of Jesus Christ! smiley

i don't think i've ever come across a being - live or on the net - more confused than your statements always say of you! Why don't ever take time to read and digest other people's posts? The way u interpret and quote other people's opinions is the same way u read the Bible; in part, with a biased mind, closed up to learning; immature to take criticisms. As a man thinketh in his heart, so he is. He speaks it, and acts it.

I'm not surpised at u but at other misguided Christians who join you to say unprintable things about their faith. Well, i hope that soon they will come to terms with God so He can teach them what His Words say about Him. The Bible is not like any other book; you have to read the Bible with a spiritual eye and a heart filled with the Spirit, i mean the Holy Spirit which only Jesus sends as a Guide and Comforter to those who beleive in His most Holy Name.

You are a genius! a, proud to have you as a Christian brother. Keep it up and God bless

@babs787
in my struggle to come to terms with what an ignorant fellow u have shown the world u are, i forgot to add that the statements above are for u. now am doing that. Just an advice: wake up from that deep slumber into which the devil has pushed you and see the truth while u still can. The hour cometh when u will want thatsame truth, but lo, i hope u will be able to complete that, at least!

Many thanks, @Mosetra. I can trust that babs787's noise is absolutely nothing for you to worry about. The antics of such collied slow-wittedness are meant to be consigned to just one place: rubbish bin.

Keep sobbing miserably, as if you have not insulted people who tried to reason with you. It has now become convenient for you to borrow lines from other dicussants to pepper up your whimpers when your own burgers have been served you.

We are waiting. When you are done plagiarizing other people's articles and dressing them as you own, then we also shall be examining the Quraish wonder of the Islamic mathematics.

Grow up and be man enough to admit that your antics have been exposed. If you cannot stand up to your words, then you're not worth making all that noise on the Forum. Ask your bootjackers for advise on new tricks - and for all of that, you'll find out it won't work! grin
