Okay tell me, which religion is good? Christianity or Islam? 95.5% of you Christians don't really know about your religion. I don't want you to see me as a Discriminator, but if you see me in that way fine. Please Bros, have you ever read your Holy Bible from Genesis to Revealation? If you haven't, please do. You Christians don't have one believe unlike we Muslims that have. We pray five times daily, not six times. We perform thesame type of ablution, we recite thesame suratul fathia, we have only one type of salamo and so on like that. Islam is performed in only one way throughout the world and we only have one type or version of Holy Quran not you Christians that have different types and versions of the Holy Bible. In one version of the Holy Bible I read sometimes ago, there's a verse that support tithe and there's also another verse that against tithe. And another thing is that Redeem cannot worship in CAC, CAC cannot worship in Four Square, The Lord's Chosen cannot worship in Methodist, Methodist cannot worship in Cherubim & Seraphim, Cherubim & Seraphim cannot worship in Jeova Witness, Jeova Witness cannot worship in Christ Embassy, ECWA cannot worship in Emmanuel Church. What's the meaning of this? Are you not calling thesame Jesus Christ the Son of God? It shows that your religion has been rasmatized. We Muslims can pray in any Mosque we see around us; be it NASFAT, Quareeb, Nawairudeen, Ansarudeen, etc. There is still more to say. I want you to quote me right or wrong here...

�Why Did Prophet Muhammad Come After Jesus?

Short Answer: Mostly because the true message of Jesus was lost with time. Jesus and Muhammad taught the same basic idea: worship God alone, be a good person, be just and generous and helpful and stand on the side of the oppressed. But over time, his message was corrupted by people like Paul. It’s the Paulified version of Christianity people practice today that’s the issue here. Prophet Muhammad came to correct the ideas spread by people who weren’t actually following the true teachings of Jesus.

Jesus: For the People of Israel Only. Muhammad: All Mankind

While Jesus (peace be upon him) was sent specifically to the Israelites, Muhammad (peace be upon him) was sent to all humanity.

According to the Gospels,

“But he [Jesus] answered and said, ‘I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.’” (Matthew 15:24)

In contrast, the Quran declares the universal message of Islam.

The Quran says what means:

Say: “O people! surely I am the Messenger of Allah to you all, of Him Whose is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; there is no god but He; He brings to life and causes to die; therefore believe in Allah and His Messenger, the illiterate Prophet who believes in Allah and His words, and follow him so that you may walk in the right way.” (Quran 7:158)

Did Jesus and Muhammad Teach the Same Thing?

Yes and no.

It is true that both Jesus and Muhammad, as well as all true prophets from Adam, Noah, etc. (peace be upon them all), carried essentially the same message.

That message is Islam—monotheism and submission to the will and guidance of God.

However, the details were not identical, but varied to cope with the time and nation addressed.

Also, while the original message of Jesus was distorted and deviated away from monotheism, the message of the final Prophet Muhammad was to stay valid and preserved to the end of time.

While Jesus’s emphasis was on moral salvation and reform of the individual, with only a few rulings on marriage and divorce, etc., the final message of Islam brought a detailed comprehensive code dealing with all aspects of human life.

This includes personal, family, social, economic, political, and international issues.

Jesus stressed purifying the soul; Muhammad was sent to build and maintain the model: individual, society, and nation.

The Original Message Of Jesus

Jesus, a human monotheistic prophet, repeatedly called people to worship God and warned those who ascribed partners to Him:

Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and Him Only.’ (Matthew 4:10)

“The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.’” (Mark 12:29)

Jesus emphasized his own humanity:

[As it is, you are determined to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God.] (John 8:40)

[By myself I can do nothing; I judge only as I hear.] (John 5:30)

Jesus never claimed to be God, or part of a God. He never mentioned Trinity, nor did he appoint a church to entrust itself with reshaping the faith and re-inventing the law.

The deviation started with Paul and some others—leaders, clergy, and philosophers—centuries after Jesus’s departure.

Christianity Today= Paulianity

Christianity as we know it today was re-formulated with its concepts of:

– Trinity, centered around the prophet Jesus who was thenceforth called God, begotten son of God
– The sacrosanct Church of Christ, talking and enacting laws in the name of God
– The story of crucifixion and resurrection from the dead
– Original sin and atonement

Read for example, according to Paul (NIV):

“At once he [Paul]began to preach in the synagogues that Jesus is the Son of God.” (Acts 9:20)

“Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David. This is my gospel…” (2 Timothy 2:

Pauline Christianity Originated in Pagan Beliefs

Most of these distortions were borrowed or coined from earlier pagan creeds.

Close similarities can be found between this Pauline Christianity and Mithraism, Buddhism, and ancient Egyptian polytheist creeds.

During the seventh century CE when Muhammad (peace be upon him) was sent, there were only a few groups of followers of the original message and teachings of Jesus.

The Injeel revealed to Jesus no longer existed in any form, as was the case of the Tawrah of Moses before him.

They were replaced with the Old and New Testaments written by different human authors selected and sanctioned as holy by the Church ecumenical councils, several centuries after the departure of Jesus.

It was high time then to re-establish the eternal guidance of the Creator to all humanity, but this time in a final eternal form, through the Glorious Quran and the detailed teachings and living model of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

Jesus prophesied the coming prophet whose universal message will stay forever:

“And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever— ” (John 14:16)

Dear Nairaland Mod, I made an exclusive story, you changed it and pushed it to the frontpage. To me, it is not fair as I never violated any of the forum's rule. I'm not saying we're competing but I think it's not fair to undermine people's labour.

Without Faith, it is impossible to please God. I will advise that you spend some time to understand what faith in God is. Pray also for the Holy Spirit to teach you accordingly. He is the Spirit of God that knows the deep things of God.

I also want to advise that the biggest sacrifice is LOVE. Do you love God? Do you love your neighbour especially the poor ? When you have pity on the poor, you are lending to God and God will surely pay you back.

@Daniel058

So ask yourself,

What are the things i'm praying for?

Do i desire such things to be shared equally in the midst of all humans?

Or my own turn to get material things others are lacking so as to oppress them the way i have also been oppressed in the past?

Jesus is God's only begotten son, the first phrase of the model prayer he taught us is OUR FATHER Matthew 6:9

So whatever we're praying for, we must have it at the back of our minds that we're asking from the one who is the father of all whether they choose to be virtuous (due to the image of God they are) or evil (due to the circumstances in which we find ourselves)! Matthew 5:45

God bless you Sir!

The point you're currently in is a point many believers has been at some point in there lives... A point of real doubt, where ur trust in the faithfulness and love of God is shaken to the core. I have been there myself and I can relate with what you're going through.

My personal advice to you is to talk to God. I mean really talk with Him... Forget the protocols you've been taught, forget all the gbas gbos,all the rules, and everything and Just talk to Him trully from your heart. Tell him about your doubt,ur fears, ur complaints and everything in between. Don't be afraid to let it all out, He already knows what's going on in ur heart so there's really no point hiding it. Mine was barely a five minutes prayer and God showed up, urs might be longer or shorter depending on how much u have to say. However long it is, just lay it down as it is in ur heart. I pray as you go boldly to the throne of grace, you receive mercy and Grace in your time of need.

Pls Take solace in the fact that many have been where you are and have come out stronger and more assured of the faithfulness of the God of the Bible. You too will also

God bless you.
