Muslims Are Liar? by Ayomivic(m): 10:32am On May 13, 2012
I think muslim are liar,why did they claimed that Deteronomy 18:15

("the lord the God will raise up unto thee a prophet from the midst of the,of the brethen,like unto me ,unto him ye shall hearken"1) is refering to prophet Muhammed when the Quran recorded that Jesus is the messiah, the messanger of God/allah?

Mohammad is not the comforter Jesus promised to send.

if Muhammad (sa) isn't then neither is your "holy spirit" the "comforter" as all christians imagine.it goes contrary to the evidence provided from the bible.but for certain,taking all prophecies into regard,will show that Muhammad (sa) is the one prophesied by Isa (as).

aside,do you just talk and open your mouth for the sake of doing that and arguing? have you gone through my posts in the link i presented? i doubt it.

you can't shut me up my friend.and stop making a mockery out of yourself.

check the link i presented.there is nothing even to argue.Jesus (as) promised a comforter to come after him.Jesus (as) himself is described as a "comforter"/advocate.Jesus (as) outlined the things the comforter would do.and the description fits Muhammad (sa).it even gets clearer when other prophecies of Jesus (as) are examined too.christians believe the comforter is the "holy spirit".Jesus (as) said if he doesn't go,the "comforter" would not come.but in the bible we see the "holy spirit" was there before Jesus (as),during his time and after he was gone.so definitely,the "comforter" has to be someone other than the "holy spirit".it is common sense if you are free from sentiments and bias.

Smh. U must be silly. Jesus promised sending the holy spirit in john 14 vs 26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. right? Kindly define what Holy spirit is. U can ask google

my friend,there is no need to employ one of those tactics being used to brainwash the christian masses.the word "holy spirit" in that verse is an interpretation of what Jesus (as) meant by the word he was using.Jesus (as) did not mention "holy spirit" in the greek manuscripts of the new testament.that word "holy spirit" becomes an interpolation just as the word "begotten" in John 3:16.the word most famously used are "advocate" and "comforter" referring to the "paraclete" that Jesus (as) said would come after him."paraclete" is not a word synonymous with "holy spirit".

what does "holy spirit" have to do with the prophecy Jesus (as) made that someone after him is to come? you believe it was the "holy spirit" he was making reference to,but i am not bound by your christian interpretation since i find that nonsensical.Jesus (as) said if he does not go the "comforter" will not come.but the "holy spirit" is portrayed in the bible as being present even in Jesus' (as) days regardless if Jesus (as) goes or stays.what i am simply telling you is not to be dishonest by replacing the word "comforter" with the words "holy spirit" in the verses in question.in the new testament manuscripts Jesus (as) is not reported to have used the word or refer to the "holy spirit" as the one to come after him.dont insert your interpretation into the bible because that becomes an interpolation.there are in fact many interpolations in the bible used as a way of interpretation to support christian doctrines unfounded in the bible e.g.trinity.that is how christians are brainwashed and indoctrinated with what Jesus (as) never taught or uttered.

if you insist i define "holy spirit",that is a word that has many meanings and could refer to many creations of God.to make it short,"holy spirit" is a manifestation of God's will to guide,inspire or perform an action.it could be an angel,it could a powerful force that is commanded by God to make an act become reality.

i said Joseph was 90 years old when 12 year old Mary was betrothed to him and God sent His angel to deliver to Mary the message of conceiving.but i never said those ages are recorded in the bible for you to ask me to show you where in the bible they are reported.stop being a $tupid.those ages are found in early christian writings.likewise,you cannot show me where in the Quran Aisha is reported to have being 9 years old when the Prophet (sa) married her.and hadiths give differnt accounts on Aisha's age and she could have been as old as 19 or 21 year old.

Also provide evidence that Jesus wasnt referring to the holy spirit

Ur definition is very faulty. Let me pretend its correct. How does this describe a common sinner like Mohammad?

LagosShia: TURNING THE TABLES ON THE IGNORANT CHRISTIAN MISSIONARIES:

HOW OLD WAS MARY WHEN SHE CONCEIVED MIRACULOUSLY?

Mary was 12 or 13 years old! so says the Catholic Encyclopaedia and the Oxford Dictionary Bible.

source: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/15464b.htm

furthermore,Mary (at a tender age) was engaged to Joseph who was at that time 90 years old!!!!

Regarding the Marriage of Mary to Joseph, Catholic Encyclopaedia(http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/08504a.htm), says:


"When forty years of age, Joseph married a woman called Melcha or Escha by some, Salome by others; they lived forty-nine years together and had six children, two daughters and four sons, the youngest of whom was James (the Less, "the Lord's brother"wink. A year after his wife's death, as the priests announced through Judea that they wished to find in the tribe of Juda a respectable man to espouse [b]Mary, then twelve to fourteen years of age, Joseph, who was at the time ninety years old, [/b]went up to Jerusalem among the candidates; a miracle manifested the choice God had made of Joseph, and two years later the Annunciation took place."


Note: That article on Catholic Encyclopaedia obtains its information from early Christian writing .

"Immanuel (or Emmanuel or Imanu'el, Hebrew עִמָּנוּאֵל meaning "God is with us" ) is a symbolic name which appears in chapters 7 and 8 of the Book of Isaiah as part of a prophecy assuring king Ahaz of Judah of God's protection against enemy kings; it is quoted in the Gospel of Matthew as a sign verifying the divine status of Jesus. It is a theophoric (a name which contains the name of a god) made up of two Hebrew words, אֵל, ’El, meaning "God", and עִמָּנוּ, ʻImmānū, meaning "with us".

[size=14pt]What Was His Name Given By His Parent And The Angel? Jesus or Immanuel?[/size]

18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. 19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily. 20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD [/b]appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and [b]thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. 22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. 24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: 25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS. (Matthew 1:18-25)

"If someone read that properly one would see a clear crystal clear contradiction and something very inconsistent, the contradiction is so blatant it becomes slightly amusing and comical!

The verse starts of by explaining that the angel of the Lord came to Joseph in a dream, and it told him this:

The angel of the lord says that Joseph and Mary shall name the baby Jesus, however so a few lines later the author Matthew tries to show this is a fulfilled prophecy when he writes:

22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel

Now a few lines later it says that they will bring a child and they shall name him Emmanuel! Notice the contradiction between the two, I will post both verses for you:

His name is Jesus from Matthew 1: 20-21

20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS:

No his name is Emmanuel from Matthew 1:22-23

22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel

So here is a crystal contradiction, Matthew seems to be a little confused and over-zealous in trying to prove that the prophecy of Isaiah refers to Jesus that he gets so excited he doesn't know he contradicts himself and that one point from the prophecy is different and missing, which is the name! It gets comical at the end when Matthew writes:

24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: 25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.

So now in verses 24-25 right after Matthew quoted the prophecy that the baby's name would be Emmanuel he writes that Joseph named the baby as Jesus! So you have 3 contradictions in the space 5 verses! In verses 20-21 it says the baby's name will be Jesus, in verses 22-23 it says the baby's name will be Emmanuel, then finally in verses 24-25 it says the baby was named Jesus!

The contradiction is there for all to see, only a biased Christian will deny it, now watch how the Christian will bring so many twists and turns to try and explain this obvious contradiction away!

come into my house you will find the Prophet Muhammad (sa) and into every Muslim house.

you claim the "holy spirit" is in you and it is divine but you believe that prophets of God in the bible (who were also "inspired" by the same "holy spirit" ) were not sinless because the bible portrays them as ra.pists,in.cetuos,adulterous and na.ked.the same way your pastors nowadays too claim "holy spirit" and "talk in tongues" but go ahead to finger women in the name of "annoiting" them in their private parts.which kind useless "spirit" are you claim?

Gbamar: I'M VERY SORRY,i just need an answer{it's urgent} to a question.' WHEN DO YOU PRAY{during the day} A MISS TAHJUD.

i do not think tahajudd can be prayed during the day.it is a mustahab prayer that you do in the darkness of the night by waking up from your sleep to perform it not as an obligatory prayer but supplementary .it is mustahab.so if the time has passed,you must wait for another night to wake up after sleep to pray it.it is not done during the day.and tahajjud being a supplementary prayer that is not obligatory,you will not be judged by Allah (swt) if you do not do it.since it is not compulsory,there is no way you can repeat it like when you miss the five obligatory prayers.

that is my own opinion.but you could ask a scholar.Allah (swt) knows best!

NB:you can always perform nafillah day and night.so even if you perform nafilah during the day,it should not be with the intention of repeating the tahajud you missed.tahajjud itself falls under nafilah.

In verses 20-21 it says the baby's name will be Jesus, in verses 22-23 it says the baby's name will be Emmanuel, then finally in verses 24-25 it says the baby was named Jesus!

The contradiction is there for all to see, only a biased Christian will deny it, now watch how the Christian will bring so many twists and turns to try and explain this obvious contradiction away!

Its too early for all these. U quoted from a biased site. Do u want me to also start lifting responses from sites? No, lets use our critical reasoning


simply because the name as it appears in hebrew has been translated.it is like translating the symbolic name "Immanuel" in the bible to mean "God is with us".
Thats another lie. Any biblical evidence to back up ur claim?


and here we have someone talking about morals:





but the bible is silent on the ages.so it is not a matter of which is more correct.the bible does not say anything.so therefore,you got to check early christian writing and treat them as historical records.
Mr man, what we dont know or have biblical evidence for may be answered by probability or assumptions. If u say Joseph could have been 1000 years when he married Mary, thats an assumption or a probability which could be true or false.

you claim the "holy spirit" is in you and it is divine but you believe that prophets of God in the bible (who were also "inspired" by the same "holy spirit" ) were not sinless because the bible portrays them as ra.pists,in.cetuos,adulterous and na.ked.the same way your pastors nowadays too claim "holy spirit" and "talk in tongues" but go ahead to finger women in the name of "annoiting" them in their private parts.which kind useless "spirit" are you claim?[/quote]

Who knows? May its the Mohammedan spirit grin grin grin grin grin grin that entered into them to be promiscuous like he was. After all u said he's the holy spirit Jesus was talking about
