Whatever are the contradiction you perceive lies in the Bible is due to your inability to interprete the Bible contextual as there are mindless liftings and presumptive attribution of interpretation by readers. There are no contradictions in the Bible, not even one.

And whosoever shall speak a word
against the Son of man, it shall be
forgiven him: but unto him that
blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it
shall not be forgiven. —Luke 12:10 For whosoever shall call upon the name
of the Lord shall be saved. —Romans 10:13

I really do not want to go down this road with you.

Nevertheless

Who is a pastor? (Pls don't tell me, a pastor is a person who wears suit on Sunday)


Did the verse you quoted made use of the word 'pastor'?

xcelentattitude:
Thanks, you don't have to answer because you already have.
One again, thanks for your responses. They have been reasonable.

1Timothy 2:12 “I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.”

hisexcellency34:
But why are Muslims afraid of translating the Quran into English so that the truth in it can be made accessible to all. Or are they trying to hide something?

nairavsdollars:
No doubt the Bible is the most widely read book in human history. I haven't seen how a Koran looks like in my life

xcelentattitude:
If I may ask,

1. who are the 'they'?

2. Do you agree with this part? Yes or No

I have heard of Muslims killing Christians but I have not heard of Christians killing Muslims.
Just tell me, with all the killings that has been taking place in this country, have you heard of a Christian sect that is going about killing Muslims.

1 Timothy 5:17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.

It is important to remember that Muhammad
was a gentle and friendly guy, who never took pleasure in violence, from the greatest kind to
the smallest kind. He reprimanded a fellow in
his ranks once by smacking him gently. When
the fellow complained, Muhammad apologized
and said, "Now you have to hit me back, I
deserve it." Muhammad stood there and waited for the blow, but the guy was so moved he
simply gave Muhammad a bear hug. One time,
the father of Muhammad's wife was angry with
her, and when he came close to strike her,
Muhammad reprimanded him strictly, even
though he was one of his best friends. Muhammad was also, quite literally, a tree
hugger. Even Muhammad's enemies admitted
his truth, honesty and gentleness. Muhammad
was not, however, a pacifist. He believed that for a society to run with adequate freedom and
safety, military defense and capital punishment
was necessary, and outlined strict and limiting
rules regarding such actions.

The Prophet Muhammad was a peaceful and highly
respected man until age 40, when he declared
that he received Holy revelation from God for
a monotheistic and egalitarian way of life. After
this, him and his followers practiced MLK-style
protest for 13 years, living as Muslims and preaching, but never striking back. Getting beaten, even killed, tortured, humiliated, but
never striking back. Then, after migrating to
Madinah, Muhammad allowed his followers to
fight back in the defensive. Back then,
casualties in battle were rare. In the bloodiest
battle with thousands of soldiers, only 70 Muslims died. And this was a huge tragedy. It
was this battle, the Battle of Uhud, that
Muhammad is recorded to have killed
someone from the Meccan side, Ubayy bin
Khalaf. It should be noted that Muhammad
himself was severely injured in this battle; people thought he had even died and he lost
several teeth permanently.

I am not confused. I am enlightening you.

The old Testament is the way man followed God after the original sin of Adam seperated God and Man. The New Testament is how man follows God after redemption through Christ. Christians follow the New Testament not the Old. Jews follow the Old.

Second, don't be so quick to criticize the old Testament. Your Koran is based on it.

Last, I notice you have nothing to say either about Mohammeds blood lust nor the violence and terrorism of Islam and its followers today. I'm not surprised.

You have no argument. Go and sit down.

Luke 19-27 But those my enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring here, and slay them before me.

xcelentattitude:
I wasn't going to come back until the Mohammed stuff has been removed from my profile but since you called me no P.



If you want to be reasonable, can you kindly, simply, jejely, tell me the part of this verse that talks about killing people.

I will be around the corner waiting for your reasonable response.

Matthew 10:34-36 “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother- in-law. And a person’s enemies will be those of his own household.”

GeorgeTheCoder:
You quoted the Old Testament. We are done with that. Christians live under a new convenant. It is described in the books of Mathew through Revelation.
It seems like you haven't heard.

Let me mention just two differences between Islam and Christianity and leave it there :

1. Jesus Christ never killed anybody in his 33 years on earth. Indeed, he raised the dead twice, and raised himself to prove his powers. Mohammed was a blood thirsty warlord who killed thousands. When he died he was eaten by pigs, I understand.

2. Christians do not force anyone to believe. Islam kills people who do not believe.

You follow a man whose mission in life was killing and conquest and you say you are peaceful.

Honour the Sabbath and keep it only is an injunction on Christians to gather under the priesthood of a pastor or preacher to hear and minister, these ministers devote productive time to search for interpretation and wisdom of God's word and teach it to the people and God purposed tithing and offering for their welfare.

1. Deuteronomy 14:23 “Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine
and olive oil, and the firstborn of your
herds and flocks in the presence of the
LORD your God at the place he will
choose as a dwelling for his Name, so
that you may learn to revere the LORD your God always.” The Bible says EAT your tithe?


2. Deuteronomy 14:25 “Then exchange your tithe for silver,
and take the silver with you and go to
the place the LORD your God will
choose.” You also have the privilege to exchange your
tithe for silver.
.
3. Deuteronomy 14:26 “Use the silver to buy whatever you
like: cattle, sheep, wine or other
fermented drink, or anything you wish.
Then you and your household shall eat
there in the presence of the LORD your
God and rejoice.” After the exchange of your tithe, you and your
household enjoys.

You are not under any oath to celebrate
You may chose to stay out
Christ is Lord and is celebrated all over the world on the 25th of December QED
If you don't like it wait till Friday then fill the attestation to belong to whatever

DO YOU KNOW?
in every crest and trough of the world We worship Almighty ALLAH the same way, the same time, same faith...where the richest worship side by side with the poor, no special treatment because we are all equal in the eyes of the creator.


ThIs is one of the countless beauty of ISLAM.

It is obvious from
the diverse ways of beliefs and worship of
each denomination, no two "Christian"
denomination worship the same God. Their body of beliefs are different, their modes
of worship also quite different. Unless you
wanna say that the Holy Spirit is the author of
confusion.
If all Christians believe the same thing why do
we have 3 to 4 different churches on the same street of less than a kilometer anyway?

Isaiah 29:12 :- " And the
book is delivered to him who is not
learned, saying read this, I pray
