golpen: "We still have an active congregation and a mission ministry, but keeping up the building was eating us house and home", Rev. Knotts said..An old building like an old car becomes financially burdensome. Why not sell and move forward to the next level? Muslims can continue to buy OLD church buildings, while Christians move to new ones. |
@ lanrexlan Don't be deceived by satan's lies. Breaking of bread is called the Lord's super or Holy Communion. Jesus commanded we should be doing it in remembrance of Him and he did it first (Mat. 26:26-28). If any pagans did such, they copied it from the Christians and not the opposite. Jesus is not sent to Isreal alone. God has timing. When he made the statement in Matthew 15:24, it was not yet the time for the Gentiles. Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore and teach all NATIONS, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The above command was given by Jesus Himself after his resurrection. The time for the Gentiles began from there. I'm sure you know all these but want to mislead the ignorant. Some people are bent to serve satan knowing and directly how much more serving him indirectly, which you are doing. May God forgive you. |
@ RoyPCain Jesus is both God and servant. See how. You may not understand because it is a spiritual thing: Philippian 2:6-7 6. Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God. 7. But made himself of no reputation and took upon him the form of a SERVANT and was made in the likeness of men. With that I believe your quest should be satisfied. |
@ RoyPCain If all the contractions listed happened in Muhammad's time, it shows his revelations were not from the true God, who is not subject to error. Even the very few defences you put up are errorneous. If man is created from fetus development, gestation stage etc, is that creation or procreation? Quran made a very serious error when it says man was created from clot. Whose clot did God use to create Adam? You see, when you muslims talk about the quran being glorious, I feel sad for them because I know it is satanic manipulations. May God deliver you from Satan. The truth remains that the quran is a guess-work. |
@ deSika All I can say is: God bless you in aboundance. More knowledge, more power, more annointing in Jesus name. Signed: cleanvessel |
Juell: Did u read the story well? De building was sold cos the members hav joined another church. I've not heard where in Nigeria a church is converted to a mosque, maybe u could show some prove. And pls stop deceiving urself dat de population of Muslims is growing. Islam grows mainly tru birth (reason why u people marry many wives and kick against birth control). But u need to see de number of people dat convert to Christianity evryday.You are right. Even the number Jesus Himself converted by appearing to them is colossal. |
It makes no sense burning the bible or quran. They only make more markets for the printers and sellers of the books. It is like when MKO Abiola was alleged to have sunk a whole ship-load of bible into the sea. Did that make bible unavailable in Nigeria? It is rubbish. |
RoyPCain: @cleanvessel; If a man is Loved by my Lord, none is Loved more than Muhammad [SA], the warner, the prophet, the messenger, the judge [what else would you want to add, even if it is not true?]. when you asked and you were served, instead of accepting reality, you just have to move the goal post. typical.Why must you look for Muhammad in the Bible? Quran never said Allah spoke about him in torah or gospel. Muhammad in his hadiths never told you people he had record outside quran. Where do you all get your formulations? It is not islamic to add to islam. Wake up. The Bible gave a prophecy. The same Bible told how the prophecy was fulfilled, which authority do you have to say no? You kept interpreting the Bible according to your desire. Go on! |
ayenny02: I have already given you the verse of the Quran and Hadith that mention second coming of Jesus (as) for muslimYou don't know the meaning of Jesus church. The church is not the denominations you mentioned above. Jesus church are those who have His spirit from any denominations. |
RoyPCain: @cleanvessel: you would have been better off it you put the minimum effort because you would have found that God says in the Quran that they will never have truly believed until they make you the Judge.One thing I discovered about Muhammad is that he received messages from Allah to support his desires. If he wanted to be a judge, he would receive a message to be a judge. If he wanted to be a warner he would receive a message to that effect. Again when he was concerned about his tribe to follow his religion, he received a message. When he desired to have Zynab after seeing her unclothedness by accident, he received a message etc. |
RoyPCain: @cleanvessel: could you tell us how the true God said He should be worshiped since you know? please give us every detail for our weekly need and provide us the name of the book of God and or names of the book of the prophet and the prophet. we need our weekly worship guide, every bit of it, please. dont give us anything except what God said or what the prophet said He said. we need to read them or it to be sure that you are not just playing us since our eternity depends on the truth.By this statement of yours, it implies you have seen that islam follows the way of idolaters and you now want the true way. Jesus said I am the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE, nobody can come unto the Father but by me (John 14:6). If you accept that, I will tell you the rest. Thank you. |
@ RoyPCain Muhammad was not said to come for execution of any judgement. He was said to be a warner. If he left warning to executing judgement, he must acted outside his duty. He acted ultra vires. |
@ ayenny02 Be candid to yourself and to other muslims following this thread of yours. There are hadiths confirming that islamic worship is copied from the worship of idol in Muhammad's time. If islam is truly the worship of the true God, why would Muhammad copy the worship of Al-Ilah (moon-god)? How do you think worshiping idol means submission to God (islam)? Don't you think it is satan's trick to make people worship Al-Ilah (moon-god) thinking they are worshiping the true God? I have no doubt inside of me that you believe you are working for God but it is not true. How do you think Jesus is coming for people who worship an idol most of them in gnorance? Think seriously and prayerfully on these questions and I believe the Lord Jesus will show Himself to you as He did to many muslims like or greater than you. Thank you. |
@ ayenny02 blenble asked you an interesting question and you have not answered. ''Are you one of Jesus sheep?'' Yes or No. If no, He is not coming for you. He is coming for His sheep. Finished. |
@ lanrexlan Islam forbids idol worship but worship Allah the same way idol worshipers worship their idols. What an irony? There is no way you can worship the true God acceptably in the same manner idols are worshiped. God and idols are not worshiped the same manner. May God remove the veil of satanic deception from your face. Amen. |
lanrexlan: Do you accept the first one I explained?This is not a defence. You saw clearly in my post above from your islamic authority how Muhammad copied the worship of idols and yet you said islam forbids all forms of idol worship. Your saying is different from your action. You cannot deceive God. The fact remains that everything you do to worship Allah is what idol worshipers do to worship their own idols too. Yes or No.Therefore there is a relationship between islam and idolatery. Your explanations did not cancel this fact. Besides your stories have no authority backing them. They are formulated by you. The questions you should ask yourself are: Can God be worshiped the same way as people worship idols? Why this resemblance? |
ayenny02: "Jesus answered them, ‘Watch out that no one misleads you. For many will come in my name, saying, "I am the Christ," and they will mislead many ... Then if anyone says to you, "Look, here is the Christ!" or "There he is!" do not believe him. For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. Remember, I have told you ahead of time.’" Matthew 24:4-5, 23-25So, Muhammad was sent by God to convert Christians to idolatery that is practiced in islam? When did God start encouraging idol worship? The warning about false prophets and false miracles is given to the Christians, not the muslims. Muslims don't perform miracles, so they cannot have true or false miracles. It is not your concern as a muslim whether miracles is true or false. The apostles who gave the warning were themselves miracle workers. They knew true miracles exist. |
@ golpen Hi, I'm surprised you are the one asking for a thread on the topic of quran. Have I not opened it before (Today's Quran Is Not the Original), which tbaba and golpen (yourself) did weakly defend and for lack of knowing what to do next, the thread was deleted? Now again you ran away under the excuse of derailing the thread. If you know the truth and deliberately refuse to follow it, why prevent others from it by deleting threads? You keep concealing the truth at the eternal peril of the people, don't you think God will not be happy about that? Every truth spoken agains islam is offensive, are you protecting your God? I know God is capable of defending Himself and also defend His people and not the opposite. |
Juell: What's de big deal if an old church is sold to Muslims? U always look for avenues to dis credit de Christians. It clearly shows ur level of ignorance, u didn't even take ur time to read de full details. U only rushed to create a topic to show ur shallow way of thinking.Thank you. They bought an old church building that was no more useful to the church. The church has advanced to higher level, praise God, Alleluyah. |
@ submitter You seem to be arguing for argument sake, no substance. The Bible in Isaiah 42:1 gave a prophecy. The same Bible in Matthew 12:15- 18 says how the prophecy was fulfilled. You sit down in a corner and formulate your own interpretation. That is very good of you. You are free to call Muhammad anything, you are entitled to your opinion. Muhammad came introducing islam and copied the worship of idols as worship of his Allah and you think he was a prophet of God? Is God and idols worshiped the same way? Keep deceiving yourselves. See the thread 'Why Allah's Reconciliation' on NL, muslim section, you will get what I mean. |
@ ayenny02 Which miracles did Muhammad perform? Who did he heal? He ate poison without knowing as a prophet. Quote the hadith where he performed miracles. When Muhammad was tested as a prophet and he failed, he admitted he was an ordinary man. Quran is not a miracle at all. How can a book (quran) written when there was confussion in the memorizers' recitation be a miracle? Or is it the torment melted out to Muhammad at his first contact with Gabriel that almost killed him you call a miracle? Is it islam that was established on the foundation of idol worship existing before Muhammad you call miracle? Is it Allah writing 'Allauh' here and there, which serves no benefit to anybody that you call miracle? My friend, no miracle in islam because the God of miracle is not their God. .......God of miracle na our Papa. Abi bee ko? |
RoyPCain: @cleanvessel: my opinion is from the wisdom of Islam. everything I said about preservation of the revealed Quran in Audible Voice to Muhammad [SA] and he [sa] to his community of believers [RA] and non believers knowing that it is Quran falls under the Another Comforter which is the Holy Spirit [Prophet of God] shall hear God and shall repeat what he hears. What is very interest in this case is that God said He will be The Protector. We in Islam are allowed to use our mind to understand reality of spirituality.Your quran confirms that there were torah and gospel earlier to the quran. I put it to you that as Allah failed to protect his torah and gospel, that you people cannot find them till today, he also failed to protect the quran. Bukhari Book 6, Volume 61, Haddith 510 Narrated By Anas bin Malik : Hudhaifa bin Al-Yaman came to Uthman at the time when the people of Sham and the people of Iraq were Waging war to conquer Arminya and Adharbijan. Hudhaifa was afraid of their (the people of Sham and Iraq) DIFFERENCES IN THE RECITATIONS OF THE QURAN, so he said to 'Uthman, "O chief of the Believers! Save this nation before they differ about the Book (Quran) as Jews and the Christians did before." So 'Uthman sent a message to Hafsa saying, "Send us the manuscripts of the Qur'an so that we may compile the Qur'anic materials in perfect copies and return the manuscripts to you." Hafsa sent it to 'Uthman. 'Uthman then ordered Zaid bin Thabit, 'Abdullah bin AzZubair, Said bin Al-As and 'AbdurRahman bin Harith bin Hisham to rewrite the manuscripts in perfect copies. 'Uthman said to the three Quraishi men, "In case you disagree with Zaid bin Thabit on any point in the Qur'an, then write it in the dialect of Quraish, the Qur'an was revealed in their tongue." They did so, and when they had written many copies, 'Uthman returned the original manuscripts to Hafsa. 'Uthman sent to every Muslim province one copy of what they had copied, and ordered that all the other Qur'anic materials, whether written in fragmentary manuscripts or whole copies, be burnt. Said bin Thabit added, "A Verse from Surat Ahzab was missed by me when we copied the Qur'an and I used to hear Allah's Apostle reciting it. So we searched for it and found it with Khuzaima bin Thabit Al-Ansari. (That Verse was): 'Among the Believers are men who have been true in their covenant with Allah.' (33.23) If Allah would protect the quran, there would not have been differences in the recitation of the memorizers. All you have expressed are your personal opinions, which cannot be established in your religious books. Since there were differences in the recitations of the memorizers, how was the writer able to pick the correct ones as he could not hear from Allah? As there was noway he could confirm from Allah because he could not hear from Him, his writings become a guess-work. I again put it to you that today's quran is a guess-work as the writer could not confirm from Allah the accuracy of the ones he eventually wrote down from the contradicting recitations by the memorizers. Thank you. |
tosin2013: Islam is d religion from God which compliments and perfects all d messages of d previous prophets from AdamAS) to Jesus (AS). It is d only religion on earth today dat links Man to his Lord directly without sons or subordinates!Jesus will return as a muslim? Is he returning to approve idol worship that muslim practice in the name of one-God? That is wonderful. |
@ ayenny02 Christians are commissioned to preach the gospel to every creature. I can go to any section to tell them the truth. If there are false prophets who perform miracles, there are true ones who perform miracles too. If there is no original there can be no counterfeit because counterfeit is copied from the original. Are you saying only the devil can perform miracles and God cannot? All the miracles performed by Jesus disciples were done by whose power? Muhammad could not perform miracles because his god (allah) is powerless. Since your leader (Muhammad) could not perform miracles, how can you followers perform? Because there is no miracle in islam, it pains you when we talk of miracles in Christendom. We are serving the true and powerful God and that makes the difference. If you call Christianity a false religion, what do call islam that worship the moon-god. Muhammad rename idol worship and call it islam. Everything they were doing idol worship before islam is practice in islam. Go and respond to the various evidences that prove islam is idol worship in 'Why Allah's Reconciliation' you ran away from. |
submitter: This is not deceiving one selves at all. It is proved by reading ongoing verses in chapter 42 foretelling about this man, servant of God.Where did you see Alkahu Akbar in verses 11-12? Why lying? There is nowhere you can see God is Greatest in the Bible. It is in the quran you can see such a thing. Allah is the Greatest. 'Greatest' is a superlative word comparing between more than two things. The true God has no reason to compare Himself with other gods and called Himself the 'Greatest'. Greatest among who? |
@ RoyPCain All your explanations so far are not relevant to the hadith under reference. You have only stated your personal opinions. I just want to ask you two main questions on the hadith under reference: There was the concern that the quran was about going into extinction if something was not done about it. So the writer was called to put the recitations down in writing. At that time there were diffenrences in memorizers' recitations already. Something had gone wrong. 1. How did the writer pick the correct ones from the contradicting recitations by the memorizers as he could not hear from Allah for confirmation? Remember in islam only Muhammad could hear from Allah as the prophet. If the writer could not get confirmation from Allah, what he was left with was guessing which recitations were correct and which were incorrect. That is why I call it guess-works. The ONLY surety was to confirm from Allah which was not the case. 2. Why was the original manuscripts burnt off? I believe it was to make cross-checks impossibe. Let's here your answer. Remember, the topic of the thread is 'Nobody Can Corrupt the Bible'. This is based on the quranic statement that nothing can change Allah's word. If you conlude torah and gospel had been changed or thrown away, the implication is that Allah is incapable of protecting his torah and gospel, thereby making his statement in the quran that nothing can change his words null and void. I don't know if that is what you mean by spirit being captured by humans or something. |
ayenny02: I beg don't commit suicide, if you read my post from beginning you will see that those who know a little in bible were pointless talklless you that don't know anything abt your religion.You are only quoting the letters of the bible but you don't have the spirit to interpret it. You have a carnal and not spiritual knowledge of it. If you want to get the true interpretations or answers to your questions, reduce your lengthy posts you copied from islamic website, which you yourself don't understand. Let issues be treated one after the other. But wait a minute: why are you primarily concerned about Christianity and contribute so litttle to your religion. Are you not trained in islam but to criticize the christians? I'm sure you are not doing islamic evangelism here because islam does not invite the christians: Quran 5:46 Let the People of the Gospel (i.e Christians) judge by that which Allah hath revealed theirein. Whoso judgeth not by which that which Allah hath revealed, such are evil-livers. What therefore is your problem with the Christians? Your quran says leave them and let them judge themselves from their Book. You are disobeying your quran by interferring with the Christians. Christianity cannot be perfectly understood without knowing the God of the christians. It cannot be carnally understood with 'letters' because letter killeth. 2 Corinthians 3:6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the LETTER but of the SPIRIT: for the LETTER killeth, but the SPIRIT giveth life. What you are doing is quoting the letter and as you lack the spirit to know what you are quoting, you are killing yourself rather than making alive. The Bible is full of life and power. We practice what is written in it and we experience God's power - miracles. Why are there no power and life in the quran? It is because it is not the revelation of the true God. Gabriel revealed to Muhammad partly but wrongly from the Bible and majorly from idol worship at his time. You cannot worship God acceptably in the ways of idol worshipers, which Muhammad introduced. Islam is not from God. |
@ ayenny02 Christians will stay away from churches and embrace islamic idolatery? When it has been proved beyond reseanable doubt that Muhammad continued with the ways of idolaters and rename it islam? See the thread ''Why Allah's Reconciliation''. You are deceiving yourself. |
@ ayenny02 An anti-Christ is anybody or any religion (islam) who/which worship idols in the name of God. You do not expect such idolaters to confess Jesus as Son of God or as Lord. |
ayenny02: Can you help me to answer the question?Take a temporary leave on these questions of yours and attend to the ones that primarily concern you. There so many questions waiting for you in the muslims' section. Go to THREAD: 1. ''Why Allah's Reconciliation''-Islam is alleged to be idol worship. What is your opinion? Or do you read only the bible to discredit it and don't care what is happening to your religion? 2. ''Nobody Can Corrupt the Bible''. The question of quran being a guess-work under the thread, which all of you are dodging since. Hurry up! |
I don't believe islam will collapse. It will even wax stronger and stronger preparatory for the use of coming anti-Christ. Muslims will be good weapons in the hands of the anti-Christ ruler. They are not easily convertible to Christ because they believe in error that they are serving one-God. They marry so many wives and bearing so many children, thereby increasing their population, even though many of these children are not properly catered for, causing problems in the society. |
