You didn't answer my question. Why does the koran in Surah 5:82 say that Christians are the closest to MOOslims while Jews hate MOOslims? Let me refresh your memory again:

Surah 5:82

You will surely find the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers to be the Jews and you will find the nearest of them in affection to the believers those who say, "We are Christians." That is because among them are priests and monks and because they are not arrogant.

Are you saying that Allah and MOOhaMAD are liars and the koran cannot be trusted?

You should ask yourself why Jesus came from Jew and up till today they didn't acknowledged him less than 2% of Xtians in Israel where u ppl go to Jerusalem all these years have taught about this question. Why Jew didnt accept xtainity since he preach to them

Guy I almost left organised religion. I researched and concluded the only true one is Christianity.
It's the the one that gives credence to a Creator. God is real only inside christianity.

Luke 6:43-45
For there is no good tree which produces bad fruit, nor, on the other hand, a bad tree which produces good fruit. For each tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a briar bush. The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil;

1 Peter 3:3-5
Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear— but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious. For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands,

Proverbs 11:22
Like a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman without discretion.

Matthew 7:15
“Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves.

Hun! wetin he even sabi sef? A nollywood actor always fond of grabbing women in their butts suddenly turned pastor. I wonder what christendom is turning into. Work of God no be wasa oo. It's much more deeper than acting. If you're not truly called, don't go there. You face a lot of attacks spiritually. The devil will tempt you with lusts, covetousness and greed. Once you fall like this, l'obatan. Your church becomes a shadow of itself.

The way some denominations are turning Christianity into family affairs nowadays is worrisome. Once the owner dies, his child or wife automatically replaces him. Were all those congregations won for them by God their own? What of their donations? Why not pick one pastor amongst them to succeed the owner?I pity those attending such churches. Jesus Christ is enough as the example. Christianity is a religion and not business empire as many have taken it to be.

I wonder why most of these founders and their families didn't emulate Pa Akindayomi, the founder of RCCG who allowed the Holy spirit to pick his successor.

I pray for this young man not to fall. It won't be funny at all. See him comparing long hair with dreads grin. Na wah oo.

He didn't suddenly turn pastor. He's been one since 2009. Acting isn't real life.

23 On that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria , and the Assyrian will come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.

Assyria means land of Ashur, and Ashur is a god.
Assyria has nothing to do with Saudi Arabia or Mecca.
Assyria is an ancient mesopotamia empire located in modern day Iraq, Syria and turkey. Even during there territorial expansion, they never reached Arabia peninsula.
Take a good look at the map of Assyria below and show me your Mecca.

Answer my question, will a jew convert to Islam who was told by God not to bow to a stone now start bowing to the black stone, circle round it and finally kiss the stone.
Is that not paganism.
Check what God told us to do with sacred stone like the one in kabba.
Break down their altars, smash their sacred stones and burn their Asherah poles in the fire; cut down the idols of their gods and wipe out their names from those places. deut 12.3

Alaye no be rubbish na u no read Bible

Acts 21:26-32
26 So Paul went to the Temple the next day with the other men. They had already started the purification ritual, so he publicly announced the date when their vows would end and sacrifices would be offered for each of them. 27 The seven days were almost ended when some Jews from the province of Asia saw Paul in the Temple and roused a mob against him. They grabbed him, 28 yelling, “Men of Israel, help us! This is the man who preaches against our people everywhere and tells everybody to disobey the Jewish laws. He speaks against the Temple—and even defiles this holy place by bringing in Gentiles.” 29 (For earlier that day they had seen him in the city with Trophimus, a Gentile from Ephesus, and they assumed Paul had taken him into the Templ
30 The whole city was rocked by these accusations, and a great riot followed. Paul was grabbed and dragged out of the Temple, and immediately the gates were closed behind him. 31 As they were trying to kill him, word reached the commander of the Roman regiment that all Jerusalem was in an uproar. 32 He immediately called out his soldiers and officers and ran down among the crowd. When the mob saw the commander and the troops coming, they stopped beating Paul.
🤣🤣🤣Bible na wayo

What exactly is your point.
Are u saying those that beat Paul were Jesus followers? Do u mean those that accused Paul were Christians or Jesus disciples? Is that what u saying ?
I need to understand you so that I would know the best way to crush u.

Meanwhile this is what Peter said about Paul's teaching. I do hope u know who is Peter.

2 Peter 3
15 Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him. 16 Paul writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.


Obviously u among the unstable and ignorant according to Peter.

They've been using earings before the rebel. So earing became bad because they calved a bull or what?

Don't add laws to the bible.

Gold Rings In The Finger, Nose and Ear

The Hebrew word nezem appears 17 times in the Old Testament. It is translated in a variety of ways such as: gold rings for women (Genesis 24:22, 30), a nose ring for a women (Genesis 24:47) and earrings for Jacob’s wives (Genesis 35:4). In Exodus 32:2-3; 35:22 we are told that the Israelite wives, sons and daughters had earrings. Since the sons had earrings, most likely the husbands or adult men wore earrings also. Most likely this was a custom in Egypt that the Israelites adopted. In Judges 8:24-26 we find that the Ishmaelites gave up their gold rings (nezem), but we are not told what types of gold rings they were wearing. In Proverbs 11:22 nezem is used of gold rings in the snout of swine. In Proverbs 25:12 nezem is generally translated as earrings. Nezem is used of nose rings in Isaiah 3:21. But in both Job 42:11 and Hosea 2:13, nezem should be simply translated as a “ring or rings” as in modern Bible versions because that is the basic meaning of the word. The context must be considered to determine if the ring is for the finger, nose or earring.

First of all it seems you're confusing modesty with your personal idea of how someone should look.

from oxford
1. the quality or state of being unassuming in the estimation of one's abilities.
"with typical modesty he insisted on sharing the credit with others".

2. the quality of being relatively moderate, limited, or small in amount, rate, or level.
"the modesty of his political aspirations".

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/modesty
1 : the quality of not being too proud or confident about yourself or your abilities.
2 : propriety in dress, speech, or conduct.


Your standard of modesty has not been proven to come from through the bible. None of this chapter you quoted condemned dreadlocks or earnings. Or do you need me to explain those bible verse to you again?

You've started again! reading the bible and attributing extra verses from your head to it to you give yourself some virtual examples lol. I read the verses and i don't think you calm down when reading bible, lol.

When did u even start mentioning Palestine on this thread? Haven't u been talking about Israel until I pointed out your ignorance and u suddenly switched to Palestine.

Let me make it simple for u. The Muslims living in present day nation of Israel, are they Jews or Arabs?

Both are old ethnic civilisation that stopped existing more than a thousand yrs ago.

Your standard of modesty has not been proven to come from through the bible. None of this chapter you quoted condemned dreadlocks or earnings. Or do you need me to explain those bible verse to you again?

You've started again! reading the bible and attributing extra verses from your head to it to you give yourself some virtual examples lol. I read the verses and i don't think you calm down when reading bible, lol.


You not gonna tell me what modest appearance mean in the bible.
It's not until u cover yourself with multiple garments and turn into a masquerade that u are modest.

However u brought here the definition of modesty.

propriety in dress, speech, or conduct.
Now do u know what propriety mean, do u actually understand the meaning of that word...propriety. I'm sure u don't.

Now check the meaning and apply it to the subject of discuss here.
