Religious Ignorance by limpopo: 4:43pm On Jul 08, 2015 |
Religious ignorance has pervaded the earth
because religious study is the least respected field
of study in schools; and that is why many have
taken fictions as facts and myth as belief. It is not
out of place to add that education that lacks
spirituality is futility. More so, most of our
religious priests assume religious leadership over
us not out of deep knowledge and understanding
but out of their charisma, oratorical prowess and
tact. They lay to hunt people from where their fear
and interest lie for worldly ends. How many
authoritative religious references do they possess
and sincerely read? Many people thus practice
religion today with ignorance, blind following, and
complacence and for fame, wealth, and to feel
among. How can i convince you my friend, that
jesus christ neither knows you nor sees you? Why
do christains always praise jesus or why do they
say: jesus is lord, when God (Allah) said in isaiah
45/21: was it not i, the lord?..... Also in isaiah
42/8, God (Allah) says " i am the Lord, that is My
name; and My glory will I not give to another...
Please consider this msg openmindedly, john 3:16
notes "for God so loved the world that He gave His
only "begotten" son, that whosoever believes in
him should not perish, bt have everlasting life".
The word "begotten son" should not be taken
literally. It only means a chosen servant or a
messenger with whom God is well pleased.
Messengers of God are only to be obeyed in
whatever is correctly reported from them as the
message of God and nt to be worshipped. That is
why a true muslim believes in God (Allah) and all
His Messengers including Jesus (Isa). And that is
why whenever any of them is mentioned a muslim
says 'alayhis salam' meaning peace be upon Him.
Also John (14:6) quotes Jesus saying: " i am the
way and d truth and life; no one comes to the
Father except through me." however, John 2:5
reads, 'as long as I am in the world, I am the light
of the world'. This latter verse limits the
generalizatn in the first. They are statements
common to all Messengers of God. See Quran
26:105-190. They mean that for people to
correctly worship Allah as their purpose of
existence, they must follow the messengers of God
sent to them. None of the verses suggests that we
should take Jesus or any other true Prophet of
God as object of worship or as our intercessor to
reach GOD after their earthly life. The Bible says:
"Who (i.e. Jesus), in the day of his flesh offered up
prayers and supplications, with vehement cries and
tears to Him who was able to save him from death,
and was heard because of his godly fear" hebrew
5/7. So our prayers must be dedicated only tn
Allah to whom jesus used to dedicate his. So my
gud pple, pls lets read our holy books ourselves
and digest it also, other than to let the so called
men of God deceive us... |
