I think majority ( 85%) of those who call themselves Christians are not diff from other unbelievers.

I wonder how on earth they gave the child of the devil an audience in the first place.
How can such a person just wake and starts to tell us that tithing is wrong.

He is working for the devil to pull down the church of God, nothing more.

WORDWORLD:
Of course a Muslim is not bothered about his soul because the essence of ISLAM meaning PEACE is to give him a troubled free soul PEACEFUL with itself. So he is declaring his state of mind from the position of what he is enjoying by practicing the principles of ISLAM. I hope you get it! So a Muslim's soul is not troubled at all.

The Quran gives such assurance of UNTROUBLED MIND.


"and those who follow My guidance need have no fear, and neither shall they grief". Quran 2:38

"O you soul at peace and satisfaction! Come back to your Lord well pleased and well pleasing unto Him. Enter thou among my devotees. Ye enter my paradise". Quran 89:27-30.

An UNREGENARATED MUSLIM is so bother because his soul is not working within the principles that ensures peace. So such soul MUST be troubled.

You are allowing the devil to deceive you.

How can you believe a man like Muhammed ?

A truth is enough to set you free :
Allah SWT says:

وَإِذْ تَقُولُ لِلَّذِىٓ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَأَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْسِكْ عَلَيْكَ زَوْجَكَ وَاتَّقِ اللَّهَ وَتُخْفِى فِى نَفْسِكَ مَا اللَّهُ مُبْدِيهِ وَتَخْشَى النَّاسَ وَاللَّهُ أَحَقُّ أَنْ تَخْشٰىهُ ۖ فَلَمَّا قَضٰى زَيْدٌ مِّنْهَا وَطَرًا زَوَّجْنٰكَهَا لِكَىْ لَا يَكُونَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ حَرَجٌ فِىٓ أَزْوٰجِ أَدْعِيَآئِهِمْ إِذَا قَضَوْا مِنْهُنَّ وَطَرًا ۚ وَكَانَ أَمْرُ اللَّهِ مَفْعُولًا
"And [remember, O Muhammad], when you said to the one on whom Allah bestowed favor and you bestowed favor, "Keep your wife and fear Allah," while you concealed within yourself that which Allah is to disclose. And you feared the people, while Allah has more right that you fear Him. So when Zayd had no longer any need for her, We married her to you in order that there not be upon the believers any discomfort concerning the wives of their adopted sons when they no longer have need of them. And ever is the command of Allah accomplished."
(QS. Al-Ahzaab: Verse 37)

Aside from the above, he could not show any power of God in his life unlike Jesus.

This is a sample :

Luke 8:23-25 KJV
But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water , and were in jeopardy.
[24] And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.
[25] And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.

I was a Muslim . I can tell you frankly that Islam is not a way of salvation.

Don't wait till you die to know the truth , it will be too late then.

WORDWORLD:
Carnal mind?! Hmmm very interesting honesty. i am quoting you so that you can reflect over your statement carefully. "A CARNAL MIND CANNOT KNOW THE THINGS OF GOD, NEITHER CAN HE KNOW THEM FOR THEY ARE SPIRITUALLY INCLINED"

So why should a CARNAL MIND at tall waste his time to pick the Bible when he is already being told that "he cannot know the things of God" which the Bible is an example of the things of God. Or is the Bible not the word of God, which purpose in the first place is to open it self SPIRITUALLY the that carnal mind, A SINNER so as to emancipate he or herself for carnality. WHAT YOU ARE SAYING HERE IS THAT THE VERY ESSENCE OF THE BIBLE IS DEFEATED. For you have to start from being a sinner not as a saint. FROM ZERO TO HERO. So what are you saying. Did you think this through properly before puring it down? For it lacks LOGIC. Oh! Logic is a human act and cant save anyone. HOW THEN CAN THE BIBLE SAVE A CARNAL MIND IF HIS MIND CANT RECEIVE THE THINGS OF GOD? HOW?! That means the Bible is not for them!

Bible is for the carnal minds and the spiritual minds just as the word of God is for the saved ,unsaved, the righteous and the unrighteous.

WORDWORLD:
Ecclesiastes 7:20

"Indeed, there is not a righteous man on
earth who continually does good and who
never sins". Is it possible to NEVER EVER SIN after being BORN AGAIN?! From what i can understand the rate at which a born again will trangress is so on a minimal scale because of self control of which we must recognise that sins itself is of variance. A born again may not commit murder but his heart may wander at times into thoughts that are sinful that are sinful. For example THAT PUFF UP PRIDE, A BORN AGAIN AM BETTER. Self righteousness itself is a sin. So brother with the quote above from the Bible i dont know how that quote cant be TRUE about us all that we are all sinners before God and seeking His Grace. Am grateful for all your response.

When someone gets born again, he is expected to grow and leave that former life of sin. But as you have rightly said there
are some sins which we do commit ignorantly. Those kinds of sins will be revealed to you by the Holy Spirit and by regular reading of your Bible. For example :

Philippians 4:8 KJV
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

By reading the above and meditating on it daily , your heart will not think evil . There is no sin that is not revealed by God in the Bible:
Romans 1:29-32 KJV
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
[30] Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
[31] Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
[32] Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

The last verse also tells us not to take pleasure in the workers of evil and their deeds. Like watching of porn.

The Holy Spirit will guide you into all truth as the bible says.

I want you to know that majority of people will not be saved except the few righteous:

Matthew 7:13-14 KJV
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
[14] Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

You are diff from others , don't follow them to do evil. Every sinner will be punished in hell fire forever, there is no coming out.

lasmile:
But we have him in the Quran as Ibrahim, so why was he mentioned in the Quran, as a Prophet who worshiped Allah the Muslim way and not like a christian

Don't follow Islam.

There was no Quran then.
No Muhammed , Abraham did not confess shahada.
He did not perform hajj, neither did he tawaf the kabaah and Safa and marwa.

He never went to Saudi Arabia.

WORDWORLD:
Thank you. "After you are expected to go and sin no more". enilove how it is possible to sin no more? Can you explain how or teach me how this is possible? For i just finish reading a verse from the lips of Jesus according to your quote from the Bible. "he that is without sin among you let him cast the first stone". How is it possible to sin no more even after believing that Jesus died for the sins of mankind. HOW?! These are honest questions enilove.

This verse below shows the hypocrisy of many people. That event was b4 the death of Jesus. The people as at then were follow the law of Moses which was hard to follow because of the sin in there blood.
Pls note, it was not impossible to follow but difficult to follow without any sin. Some were able to follow it and were righteous but their righteousness could not take them to heaven since they also inherited their father's sins. Those people who gathered to stone the woman were all sinners , and Jesus could see into their spiritual life to tell what sins they all had individually.

But with the death of Jesus , it is easy and possible because the power of the inherited sins are destroyed. You will receive the Power from above to live a holy life automatically. This is spiritual and you will know it because the will to commit those sins will be gone. Mind you, it does not mean there will not be temptations or occasional desire to sin, but you will have full control over the situation unlike when you were not born again. Paul said :

Romans 7:14-20 KJV
For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
[15] For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
[16] If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.
[17] Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
[18] For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
[19] For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
[20] Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

continuation , after Paul got born again , he said:
Romans 8:1-8,10
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. [2] For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
[3] For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
[4] That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
[5] For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. [6] For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
[7] Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
[8] So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
[10] And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.


YOU CAN READ THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

After this , you can ask more questions , even relating to your faith.

WORDWORLD:
O thank you for your time am grateful. Its a very, very DIFFICULT position this doctrine of JESUS DIED FOR THE SINS OF MAN KIND. For there is a human act 'A' which was done and have been saving lifes which equates to salvation. Hence Jesus 'B' dying for the sins of mankind is not necessary if it must depend on 'A' to be an act of SALVATION. What it means is that 'B' cannot stand on its own as SALVATION except with 'A' of which 'A' has been standing on its own without 'B' as SALVATION. SO 'B' JESUS AS A SACRIFICE IS NOT NECESSARY BECAUSE 'A' HAS BEEN DOING THE JOB MEANT FOR 'B' TO. Unless 'B' can stand on its own without 'A' then a PRICED AS BEEN PAID because it can stand on its own otherwise it is not necessary. How is it necessary is my question.
muttelylaff, enilove, petra1, anonyNymous, twosquare, butterflylion,adepeter2027, dohgon, emmanystone, ferisidowu.

As I said earlier , it is necessary.

Jesus does not rely on Adam to fulfill his work of salvation for mankind , if that is the summary of the quoted post above.

You also do not have to suffer for the sins of your forefathers, if you accept Jesus death as a remissions for your sins.

After that , you are expected to go and sin no more:
John 8:5-12 KJV
Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
[6] This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not .
[7] So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
[8] And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
[9] And they which heard it , being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
[10] When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
[11] She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
[12] Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

Pls note; Any religion that teaches you that a sinner will make heaven is of the devil.

Have humans created robots in their image? Not really, unless you mean its physical appearance only. And I'm guessing God is not limited to the physical attributes of humans - legs, hands, ears, eyes, mind and stupidity et al?

Robots are not yet able to reason like humans do. And any humans who decide not to use their brains will become robots!

That means you are not current.

There is a "Humanoid robot "called Sofia produced in America.
She is a citizen of Saudi Arabia. It can Imitate emotions and facial movements . It cross think like how a human thinks.
It is said to be a billion times smarter than humans with an artificial brain.
She attends talk shows and replies every everyone correctly.

WORDWORLD:
WHAT IS THE ESSENCE OF JESUS DYING FOR OUR SINS IF MAN WOULD STILL BE PUNISHED FOR COMMITING SINS. OF WHAT BENEFIT IS HIS DEATH TO SINNERS WHOM HE HAS DIED FOR IF THEY STILL WILL BE PUNISHED? I DONT GET IT REALLY!!! WHAT IS THE ESSENCE? WHAT IS THE BENEFIT? THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO UNDERSTAND.

The reason for the death of our Lord Jesus is to reconcile us back to God like the time of Adam and Eve b4 they sinned. B4 Adam and Eve sinned, man was created to live for ever , but the advent of sin brought God's curse and death upon Adam and Eve. Since God had warned that eating from that TREE would bring death upon them .

Genesis 2:16-17 KJV
And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: [17] But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

There is no man living that did not come through Adam and Eve, that means there is no man that has not inherited the curse of death .

But because God is love and His purpose for creating us cannot be destroyed by Satan , He made a way out for you and I through the death of Jesus on the cross. When you accept his death , you are free from the sin of Adam and Eve. But any sin you commit after accepting Jesus is new and you can be forgiving provided you are sincerely sorry for committing them.

The Bible Says:

Romans 5:12 KJV
Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

Romans 5:10 KJV
For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

That is why all the Prophets did not say they are the way ,the truth and the life except Jesus.Because JESUS DID NOT INHERIT THE SIN OF ADAM .

Life is in the blood. The curse of God on Adam went to his blood and there is no man that has not inherit the blood.
To be reconciled to God means to be BORN AGAIN.

Islam is a religion that has been perfected by ALLAH HIMSELF,so there is nothing u can do abt it...

Who is Allah or what is Allah .

Is Allah a title or the name of a God ?

For clearance, "Majesty" is a title. "God" is a title of a supreme Creator of the universe.
Is "Allah" the name of the God Muhammad and Muslims worship or just a title like God in English ?

Go to MFM PRAYER CITY FOR DELIVERANCE, quickly.

It is a 3 day prayer and fastings.

noblejames:
There is this myth surrounding the act of prayer in the church world especially in this part of the world. Christians have been made to believe that for their prayers to be answered one has to pray at a certain hour of the night. Reasons being that these certain hours of the night are the times the demons, witches and wizards gather to have their meeting. I was in a certain church service one day the pastor was issuing order to his members to start praying at 2.00am every night, that it is the most powerful time to pray because that is the time the demons gather. Well, I wonder if he is one of them, that on the side, this statement is not according to knowledge.
Prayer must be a faithful spiritual activity in which the one praying issue orders through his or her mouth in order to turn things around in the spiritual realm. Prayer affects the course of things in the realm of the spirit, and in the realm of the spirit the principalities and powers there acts on what the one praying has commanded. These principalities and powers are spiritual beings and as spiritual being they are not under the control of time and space, which means that they do not exist within time and space. This implies that demons do not know what 2.00am is and are not regulated by any time frame. They are on the loose to do their havoc at any time of the day whether night or daylight. So we see evil occurrences induced, inspired, controlled by demons taking place at any time of the day. The misnomer here is that 2.00am in Nigeria could be afternoon somewhere in any part of the world and in that part of the world some tragic situation could be taking place whereas the people in Nigeria are having a nice time in their sleep.
Recently we heard of a flight that flow from a country that is in 2018 and landed in a country that is still in 2017. This shows that time is not a factor in the realm of the spirit because the beings in the realm of the spirit doesn’t exist within the parameters of time and space. That is why when you pray sickness that is supposed to take five months to heal under medical supervision heals instantly because when the realm of the spirit invades into a matter, time doesn’t matter at all. So is fallacious to wake up or to wake someone up to pray midnight prayer because that is the time the demons are at work. This reason is not according to knowledge! Now don’t get me wrong, I am not against praying midnight prayer or praying at 2.00am. I do pray at any time of the night but not because it is the time the demons are at work but because is comfortable for me, at that times there are no distractions and my spirit can focus and I declare what I want done and happen.

Even there are btw the lines, contextual, denotative and connotative, and e.t.c meanings in ordinary literature text(s).

Is the purpose is to give understanding or misunderstanding?

God wants his people to understand Him and not to misunderstand Him. Any Scripture that is not meant for people to understand and to save them , is not from God Almighty.

God can give a message to a German man in German language , it should be easy for him and others , Germans or not , to understand and usable.

NO, they can't make heaven.

John 3:2-19 KJV
The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
[3] Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
[4] Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
[5] Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
[6] That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
[7] Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
[8] The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
[9] Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
[10] Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?
[11] Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. [12] If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
[13] And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
[14] And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
[15] That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
[16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
[17] For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
[18] He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
[19] And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

Pharaoh001:
Islam is a practical faith that permits self-
defence in certain strict situations. When?
Let the Quran explain.
First, the Prophet Muhammad and his
companions patiently bore vehement
persecution in Mecca for nearly 13 years.
This included a three-year starvation
boycott from which his wife Khadija later
died. Muslims didn’t fight back.
Next, Muhammad sent some companions to
seek refuge in Abyssinia under a Christian
King, and Muslims still didn’t fight back.
Third, when the Prophet’s companions even
asked to fight back, Muhammad responded
clearly, “I have not been given permission to
fight.” And, finally, when the persecution
became unbearable, Muhammad and the
Muslims simply left Mecca – still refusing to
fight back.

These refugees trekked 240 miles through
the desert to escape terrorism, finally
arriving in the predominantly Jewish city of
Medina. If Islam taught terrorism and
enforced Sharia, this was the time to
demonstrate this. Instead, Prophet
Muhammad formed the Constitution of
Medina with the Jews, establishing a unified
secular state.
Yet the extremists trying to kill Muslims in
Mecca pursued the Muslims to kill them in
Medina. And now – finally – the Quran
addressed fighting for the first time,
permitting Muslims to fight in self-defence.
The permission given in Quran 22:40-41 to
fight was only given to “those against whom
war is waged.” And fighting wasn’t just to
defend Muslims from persecution – but to
defend Christians, Jews, and people of all
faiths. All subsequent verses addressing
fighting are pre-conditioned on these clearly
outlined rules of self-defense. Otherwise,
it’s cherry picking, something the
Quran forbids as perverse.
Additionally, Quran 2:193-194 declares that
Muslims may only fight active combatants.
Meaning, even if during battle an enemy
combatant asks for amnesty, you must grant
it. In Islam, there’s no such thing as
“collateral damage,” mutilation, or torture.
All this notwithstanding, fact three issues
the death blow to Daesh and Islamophobe
ideology.
You might now understand who the Quran
refers to when it says “kill them where you
find them”. The “them” are those terrorists
who persecuted people for their faith, exiled
them from their homes and then pursued to
kill innocent people in their new homes.
In other words, “them” is close to a modern
day Isis. The Quran permits killing terrorists
in self-defence because they have waged
pre-emptive war against you, or against
Christians, Jews, or people of any faith. Yet,
even then, if terrorists desist, the Quran
forbids aggression against them. This
teaching is not mere theory, it’s Islamic
history.
Prophet Muhammad did something
remarkable when he returned to Mecca after
20 years. Having suffered brutal persecution
and murder of even his own children, he
offered blanket forgiveness, with the one
condition that the Meccans accept universal
freedom of conscience. He did not force
Islam. He did not wage war. He did not
imprison the city. He forgave.
As non-Muslim historian Stanley Lane-Poole
attests: “The day of Muhammed greatest
triumph over his enemies was also the day
of his grandest victory over himself. He
freely forgave the Quraysh all the years of
sorrow and cruel scorn in which they had
afflicted him and gave an amnesty to the
whole population of Mecca.”
That is the love and compassion that Islam
and the Quran teach. Any honest person can
see that Isis represents Prophet Muhammad
the way darkness represents light; the two
are complete opposites.
Misconceptions about Islam creep in
because people learn about the faith from
headline news rather than from the Quran
and the Prophet. Read the Quran , read a
biography of Muhammad , seek out the True
Islam education campaign.

Let's forget the violence aspects.

Why did Islam adopt pagan rituals like kissing the black stone , circumambulating the kabaah ,ambulate btw Safa and Marwa and casting of stones , just like the pre-Islamic Idol worshippers were doing ?

Why did Muhammed retain many of the aspects of the pagans mode of worship or religion?

adekhingz:
Allah means God. It's the exact Arabic translation of God. Muslims prefer calling "Allah" in the Arabic form to calling "God" to keep the Arabic form of the word Alive. Muslims or non-muslims in the Arabic speaking country refer to God as Allah, regardless of their faith.

If Allah means God, that means it s title.
What then is the name of that God or Allah ?

adekhingz:
The child is Mary's. He has no father.

You are wrong.

God is his Father .

That is why Jesus said :

John 10:25-38 KJV
Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me. [26] But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
[27] My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
[28] And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
[29] My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
[30] I and my Father are one.
[31] Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
[32] Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me? [33] The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
[34] Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
[35] If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
[36] Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
[37] If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
[38] But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.


Read the above and pray. Just tell God to direct your ways.

adekhingz:
It still didn't show God being the father, did it??! If you agree God had no(thing) with Mary, the fact that he made her conceive doesn't push the paternity to him.

Who then owns the child?

adekhingz:
Funny enough Christians in the South call Allah god, while their counter-part in the North call God Allah. It's same as you saying "Eledumare and chineka Are Yoruba & Igbo idols respectively.

I want to ask you one question , does Allah means title of a supreme being or name of a God?

Like God is a title for a supreme being who Created heaven and earth in English language. And the name of that God to the Christians is Jehovah.

What is the name of Allah ?. Don't give us any attributes , pls.

adekhingz:
Please don't get it twisted. Mary, a human being like you and I, gave birth to Jesus, not God. If Mary is a human being, she must have given birth to a human too. History did not tell us God impregnated Mary, except you want to blaspheme God as being a rapist. God Never copulated with her. she conceived as a virgin.

Who impregnated Mary ?
God does not need to have intercourse b4 making any human to have a child :

Luke 1:31-37 KJV
And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
[32] He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
[33] And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
[34] Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
[35] And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
[36] And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.
[37] For with God nothing shall be impossible.

Verse 35 tells you how Mary conceived.

Why among the attributes of God, why is your Allah not called : CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE,
THE FIRST AND THE LAST,
THE KING OF KINGS ,
THE LORD OF LORDS .

If your Allah is the FIRST, he is not the LAST , because he is expecting others like him. He might be the first among the Angels because God later created other angels after the first angel.

Revelation 1:17 KJV
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:

We have kings on earth, God should not be ranked along with his creatures. He should be the KING THAT RULES OVER THE EARTHLY KINGS. But Allah is not so. He is a mere king.

Your Allah is a god.
Your Allah is also a lord.
Since there are many called gods and lords , like god of Iron, god of Thunder etc, Your god is just like one of them.

1 Corinthians 8:5 KJV
For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)

Judges 16:5 KJV
And the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and said unto her, Entice him, and see wherein his great strength lieth , and by what means we may prevail against him, that we may bind him to afflict him:...

But our God from the Beginning has calling Himself ;
GOD OF GODS , LORD OF LORDS , KING OF KINGS.

Deuteronomy 10:17-18 KJV
For the Lord your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward: [18] He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.

Are you ready to serve that God of Gods and Lord or Lords , as you promised , because our God has all the attributes above and far and greater attributes ,like THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA, THE CONSUMING FIRE , CREATOR OF THE HEAVEN AND THE EARTH , GOD OF GODS, LORD OF LORDS?

adekhingz:
I'm sharing this not to ridicule Christianity ( It does me no good to). I'm just explaining to you guys how confusing your claim that Jesus is God. Muslims believe in Jesus too, but not as a (G)god. But I agree with you that Jesus is not an ordinary person like Us. he is holy and free from all faults.
I intend no blasphemy please

Human beings give birth to humans like them,
Animals give birth to animals in their likeness.

A lion will give birth to a lion.

If Holy Spirit of God planted a child in the womb of a woman , what kind of child will the woman produce?
The woman would give birth to the child of the Holy Spirit .
That is, the Child is having or carrying the DNA of his Father.
So, if the child of Spirit of God carries the Spirit of the Father who is God , is the child not a God like the Father ?

Jesse01:
Thank u my dear Jesus Christ is not God,

God is a Creator.

Who can give life other than God?
If Jesus can turn an ordinary clay to a bird , is he not a a God?

Allah SWT says:

وَرَسُولًا إِلٰى بَنِىٓ إِسْرٰٓءِيلَ أَنِّى قَدْ جِئْتُكُمْ بِئَايَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّكُمْ ۖ أَنِّىٓ أَخْلُقُ لَكُمْ مِّنَ الطِّينِ كَهَيْئَةِ الطَّيْرِ فَأَنْفُخُ فِيهِ فَيَكُونُ طَيْرًۢا بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۖ وَأُبْرِئُ الْأَكْمَهَ وَالْأَبْرَصَ وَأُحْىِ الْمَوْتٰى بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۖ وَأُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا تَأْكُلُونَ وَمَا تَدَّخِرُونَ فِى بُيُوتِكُمْ ۚ إِنَّ فِى ذٰلِكَ لَءَايَةً لَّكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُّؤْمِنِينَ
"And [make him] a messenger to the Children of Israel, [who will say], 'Indeed I have come to you with a sign from your Lord in that I design for you from clay [that which is] like the form of a bird, then I breathe into it and it becomes a bird by permission of Allah. And I cure the blind and the leper, and I give life to the dead - by permission of Allah. And I inform you of what you eat and what you store in your houses. Indeed in that is a sign for you, if you are believers."

Hmm! what a confusion. So beautiful to be a Muslim, Allah (SWT) have mercy on us all and grant us His straight path for us not to go astray.Salam alaykum to you all.

Is not beautiful to be a Muslim but a disaster, calamity and the greatest mistake of any mankind.

Everything about Islam is idolatry.

Tell my why you believe Muhammed or anybody should believe Muhammed was a prophet of God.

Pharaoh001:
luke 10: 5-6 , Whatever house you enter, begin by
saying, ‘Peace (salam aleikum) to this house.’ If a man of peace (A Muslim) is there, your peace will rest on him;if not, it will return to you.…

I wondered everyday why people with false religion called Christianity don't read their bible. if truly they've been reading it; they would've know that it is only the Muslims that followed Jesus preaching.

Matthew 24:23-25
Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo,
here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
For there shall arise false Christs, and
false prophets, and shall shew great signs
and wonders; in so much that, if it were
possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Behold, I have told you before.

The similitude of Jesus calling GOD his father,is the similitude of Christians calling themselves child of God. despite knowing their parents. Now tell me ,how many sons does the Almighty have ?(in contradiction to john 3:16).....see.....its just a mere words to deceive and make themselves happy! they don't think with their brain!
Roman 6:16
Don’t you know that
when you offer yourselves to someone as
obedient slaves you are slaves of the one
you obey whether you are slaves to sin,
which leads to death, or to obedience,
which leads to righteousness?

it even made me laugh when Christians and other people working under a mere Government called themselves Civil Servants but they reject to be God's Servants

Delusional Sect.

Christians and Jews do not say we are not SERVANTS of God. We say we are not SLAVES of God.

It is a curse to be a slave.

The Luke 10:5-9 which you quoted means:
to preach the gospel not just to go about greeting people. You claimed because Muslims greets people by saying "salam aleikum" , they are obeying Jesus Christ. This shows you lack ;

Knowledge of the Bible,
Knowledge of the Quran and hadith ,
Knowledge of God.

Luke 10:4-11 KJV
Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.
[5] And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.
[6] And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.
[7] And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
[8] And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:
[9] And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
[10] But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say, [11] Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.

Jesus told his disciples to go and preach "that the kingdom of God is at hand" .
But Muhammed did not preach peace , he proclaimed killings and hatred :

Volume 4, Book 52, Number 195:
Sahih Bukhari
Narrated Anas:

The Prophet set out for Khaibar and reached it at night. He used not to attack if he reached the people at night, till the day broke. So, when the day dawned, the Jews came out with their bags and spades. When they saw the Prophet; they said, "Muhammad and his army!" The Prophet said, Allahu--Akbar! (Allah is Greater) and Khaibar is ruined, for whenever we approach a nation (i.e. enemy to fight) then it will be a miserable morning for those who have been warned."

Jesus told his disciples to preach and not to fight, but Muhammed did not preach, but killed those who did not believe in his message. Boko Haram, ISIS are doing the same in this present world.
How are you Muslims following Jesus? Did he ask muhammed to kill innocent people?

The Jesus the Muslims believe in is the Jesus that did not die on the cross , not the Jesus of the Bible that died on the cross for our sins.
