Chapter 40 ADAM AND EVE CONTEMNED  

When Satan had knowledge of this he became mad with indignation, and so he drew near to the gate of paradise where a horrid serpent with legs like a camel, and nails on his feet [that] cut like a razor on every side, stood on guard. The enemy said to him: 'Let me to enter into paradise.'

The serpent answered: 'How shall I let you enter [since] God has commanded me to cast you out?' Satan answered: 'You see how much God loves you; he has set you outside of paradise to keep guard over a lump of clay, which is man! If you bring me into paradise I will make you so terrible that every one shall flee you, and so you shall go and stay at your pleasure.' Then the serpent said: 'And how shall I set you within [paradise]?'

Satan said, 'You are great: therefore, open your mouth, and I will enter into your belly, and so [when] you enter into paradise [you] shall place me near to those two lumps of clay that are newly walking upon the earth.' Then the serpent did so, and placed Satan near Eve, for Adam, her husband, was sleeping. Satan presented himself before the woman like a beauteous angel, and said to her: 'Why do you not eat of those apples and corn?' Eve answered: 'Our God has said to us that [if we] eat [them] we shall be unclean, and he will drive us from paradise.'

Satan answered: 'He does not speak the truth! You must know that God is wicked and envious, and suffers no equals, but keeps every one as a slave. [This is] why he has said this [to you]; in order that you may not become equal to him. But if you and your companion do according to my counsel, you shall eat of those fruits as [you eat] of the other [fruits], and you shall not remain subject to others but like God you shall know good and evil, and you shall do whatever you please, because you shall be equal to God.'

Then Eve took and ate of those [fruits], and when her husband awoke she told [him everything] that Satan had said; and he took and ate the fruit [when] his wife offered them to him. But, as the food was going down, he remembered the words of God, and, wishing to stop the food, he put his hand into his throat, where every man has the mark.

Chapter 39 SATAN TEMPTETH EVE

Then said John: "Well have you spoken, O master, but we lack to know how man sinned through pride." Jesus answered: "When God has expelled Satan, and the angel Gabriel had purified that mass of earth whereon Satan spat, God created everything that lives, both of the animals that fly and of them that walk and swim, and he adorned the world with all that it has. One day Satan approached to the gates of paradise, and, seeing the horses eating grass, he announced to them that if that mass of earth should receive a soul there would be for them grievous labour; and that therefore it would be to their advantage to trample that piece of earth in such wise that it should be no more good for anything.

The horses aroused themselves and impetuously set themselves to run over that piece of earth which lay among lilies and roses;. Whereupon God gave spirit to that unclean portion of earth upon which lay the spittle of Satan, which Gabriel had taken up from the mass; and raised up the dog, who, barking, filled the horses with fear, and they fled. Then God gave his soul to man, while all the holy angels sang: "Blessed be your holy name, O God our Lord." "Adam, having sprung upon his feet, saw in the air a writing that shone like the sun;, which said: "There is only one God, and The Great Prophet is the Messenger of God."

Whereupon Adam opened his mouth and said: "I thank you, O Lord my God, that you have deigned to create me; but tell me. I pray you, what means the message of these words: "The Great Prophet is Messenger of God. Have there been other men before me?" 'Then said God: "Be you welcome, O my servant Adam. . I tell you that you are the first man whom I have created. And he whom you have seen [mentioned] is your son, who shall come into the world many years hence, and shall be my Messenger, for whom I have created all things; who shall give light to the world when he shall come; whose soul was set in a celestial splendour ;sixty thousand years before I made any. thing."

Adam besought God, saying: "Lord, grant me this writing upon the nails of the fingers of my hands." Then God gave to the first man upon his thumbs that writing; upon the thumb-nail of the right hand it said: "There is only one God;," and upon the thumb-nail of the left it said: "The Great Prophet is Messenger ;of God." Then with fatherly affection the first man kissed those words, and rubbed his eyes, and said: "Blessed be that day when you shall come to the world."

Seeing the man alone, God said: "It is not well that he should remain alone." Wherefore he made him to sleep, and took a rib from near his heart, filling the place with flesh. * Of that rib made he Eve, and gave her to Adam for his wife. He set the twain of them as lords of Paradise, to whom he said: "Behold I give to you every fruit to eat, except the apples and the corn" whereof he said: "Beware that in no wise you eat of these fruits, for you shall become unclean, insomuch that I shall not suffer. You to remain here, but shall drive you forth, and you shall suffer great miseries."

Mugabe may be a dictator, he may be powerdrunk, but he is not a mumu.
Despite the fact that Mugabe and Zimbabwe have failed because the people are suffering, this doesn't mean that he is daft. The situation in Zimbabwe is just a clear example of the Western world demonstrating how powerful they are and how harshly they will deal with whoever opposes them. They are using Zimbabwe as a scapegoat.
It is not about white farmers being chased out of the country and black farmers not being able to take their place. Clearly, Zimbabwe is suffering due to the sanctions that have been placed on it by the Western world. The Western world is trying to make other African countries follow suit, until Mugabe throws in the towel.
Very sad indeed, this situation. My suggestion to Mugabe is to give up so his people have a better life, because he has definitely failed

I agree with you.

Chapter 38 THE FALL OF MAN

Then answered John: "Master let us wash ourselves as God commanded by Moses." * Jesus said: "Do you think that I have come to destroy the Law and the prophets? Truly I say to you, as God lives, I have not come to destroy it, but rather to observe it. For every prophet has observed the Law of God and all that God by the other prophets has spoken. As God lives, in whose presence my soul stands, no one that breaks one least precept can be pleasing to God, but shall be least in the kingdom of God, for he shall have no part there. Moreover I say to you, that one syllable of the Law of God cannot be broken without the. gravest sin. But I do you to wit that it is necessary to observe that which God says by Isaiah the prophet, with these words: "Wash you and be clean, take away your thoughts from my eyes. 'Truly I say to you, that all the water of the sea will not wash him who with his heart loves iniquities.

And furthermore I say to you, that no one will make prayer pleasing to God if he be not washed, but will burden his soul with sin like to idolatry. 'Believe me, in sooth, that if man should make prayer to God as is fitting, he would obtain all that he should ask. Remember Moses the servant of God, who with his prayer scourged Egypt, opened the Red Sea, and there drowned Pharaoh and his host. Remember Joshua, who made the sun stand still, Samuel, who smote with fear the innumerable host of the Philistines; , Elijah, who made the fire to rain from heaven, Elisha raised a dead man, and so many other holy prophets, who by prayer obtained all that they asked. But those men truly did not seek their own in their matters, but sought only God and his honour."

Chapter 37 THE PRAYER OF CHRIST

The disciples wept at the 'words of Jesus and besought him, saying: "Lord, teach us to make prayer." Jesus answered: "Consider what you would do if the Roman governor seized you to put you to death, and that same do you when you go to make prayer. And let your words be these:

"O Lord our God, hallowed be your holy name, your kingdom come in us, your will be done always, and as it is done in heaven so be it done in earth; give us the bread for every day, and forgive us our sins, as we forgive them that sin against us, and suffer us not to fall into temptations, but deliver us from evil, for you are alone our God, to whom pertains glory and honour for ever."

I can see you have a new woman friend.

@lady
Please, from your stand point of view, how do you see the Ko'ran? Please don't start saying its a plagarised version of the bible because its arrangement and message is not at all- like the chronological order of the Bible, nor are messages of Bible constantly promising the Fire for people who do specified evil nor does the Bible explain what the Judgement day is by describing the events.

If God wills, I will start a thread called Juz'Amma(The last chapters of the Ko'ran). That thread may, if God wills make you know the reality. I beg you to stop being aggressive like the other christian brothers who have fought and yea, they retired. . frustrated. When that thread is began, using the English of the King James you will know the truth except you deny in pride.

olrotimi:
in my opinion, any gosple not in the uoriginal bible is perhaps not needed for us.so need not cause confusion

What you are saying is any gospel contrary to the Pauline bible is untrue. But what you don't know is this is no forgery, history shows that this book was destroyed centuries ago, about 325AD.That was when the christianity we have now (3in1) lordship was fully established. Any Christian that believes God is One, and God has no equal, whether be it man or spirit will know that it s true.

God says:O people of the scripture! Commit no excesses in your religion: nor say of God anything but the truth. Jesus the son of Mary was no more than a Messenger of God, and His word, which He bestowed unto Mary, and a Spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in All'ah and His Messengers. Do not say "three": seize: it wll be better for you: for All'ah is One God: glory be to Himfar exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belongs whatsoever is in the heavens and earth. And God is sufficient as a Disposer of affairs.
(4:171)

Men, I must return my own o. Eye for eye, tooth for tooth.

Chapter 36 CONCERNING PRAYER

The disciples stood in great amazement at the rebellion of the angels. Then Jesus said: "Truly I say to you, that he who makes not prayer is more wicked than Satan, and shall suffer greater torments. Because Satan had, before his fall, no example of fearing, nor did God so much as send him any prophet to invite him to repentance: but man now that all the prophets are come except the Messenger of God who shall come after me, because so God wills, and that I may

prepare his way and man, I say, albeit he have infinite examples of the justice of God, lives carelessly without any fear, as though there were no God. Even as of such spoke the prophet David;: "The fool has said in his heart, there is no God. Therefore are they corrupt and become abominable, without one of them doing good."

Make prayer unceasingly, O my disciples' 'in order that you may receive. For he who seeks finds, and he who knocks to him it is opened, and he who asks receives. And in your prayer do not look to much speaking, for God looks on the heart; as he said through Solomon;: "O my servant, give me your heart." Truly I say to you, as God lives, the hypocrites make much prayer in every part of the city in order to be seen and held for saints by the multitude: but their heart is full of wickedness, and therefore they do not mean that which they ask. It is needful that you mean your prayer if you will that God receive it. Now tell me: who would go to speak to the Roman governor

to Herod, except he first have made up his mind to whom he is going, and what he is going to do? Assuredly none. And if man does so in order to speak with man, what ought man to do in order to speak with God, and ask of him mercy for his sins, while thanking him for all that he has given him?

Truly I say to you, that very few make true prayer, and therefore Satan has power over them, because God wills not those who honour him with their lips: who in the Temple ask [with] their lips for mercy, and their heart cries out for justice. Even as he says to Isaiah the prophet, saying: "Take away this people that is irksome to me, because with their lips they honour me, but their heart is far from me." Truly I say to you, that he that goes to make prayer without consideration mocks God.

Now who would go to speak to Herod with his back towards him, and before him speak well of Pilate the governor, whom he hates to the death? Assuredly none. Yet no less does the man who goes to make prayer and prepares not himself. He turns his back to God and his face to Satan, and speaks well of him. For in his heart is the love of iniquity, whereof he has not repented. If one, having injured you, should with his lips say to you, "Forgive me,' and with his hands should strike you a blow, how would you forgive him? Even so shall God have mercy on those who with their lips say: "Lord, have mercy on us," and with their heart love iniquity and think on fresh sins."

Chapter 35  SATAN'S FALL THROUGH PRIDE

Jesus departed from Jerusalem, and went to the desert beyond Jordan: and his disciples that were seated round him said to Jesus: "O master, tell us how Satan fell through pride, for we have understood that he fell through disobedience, and because he always tempts man to do evil."

Jesus answered: "God having created a mass of earth, and having left it for twenty-five thousand years without doing aught else; Satan, who was as it were priest and head of the angels, by the great understanding that he possessed, knew that God of that mass of earth was to take one hundred and forty and four thousand signed with the mark of prophecy, and the Messenger of God, the soul of which messenger he had created sixty thousand years before aught else;. Therefore, being indignant, he instigated the angels, saying: "Look you, one day God shall will that this earth be revered by us. Wherefore consider that we are spirit, and therefore it is not fitting so to do." Many therefore forsook God. Whereupon said God, one day when all the angels were assembled: "Let each one that holds me for his lord straightway do reverence to this earth."

They that loved God bowed themselves, but Satan, with them that were of his mind, said: "O Lord, we are spirit, and therefore it is not just that we should do reverence to this clay;." Having said this, Satan became horrid and of fearsome look, and his followers became hideous; because for their rebellion God took away from them the beauty wherewith he had endued them in creating them. Whereat the holy angels, when, lifting their heads, they saw how terrible a monster Satan ;had become, and his followers, cast down their face to earth in fear. Then said Satan: "O Lord, you have unjustly made me hideous, but I am content thereat, because I desire to annul all that

you shall do. And the other devils said: "Calf him not Lord, O Lucifer;, for you are Lord."

Then said God to the followers of Satan: "Repent you, and recognize me as God, your creator." They answered: "We repent of having done you any reverence, for that

you are not just; but Satan is just. Then said God: "Depart from me, O you cursed, for I have no mercy on you." And in his departing Satan spat up that mass of earth,

and that spittle the angel Gabriel lifted up with some earth, so that therefore now man has the navel in his belly."

Chapter 34(REPEAT) 

There stood before the door one who had his right hand shrunken in such fashion that he could not use it. Whereupon Jesus, having lift up his heart to God, prayed, and then said: "In order that you may know that my words are true, I say, "In the name of God, man, stretch out your infirm hand! " He stretched it out whole, as if it had never had anything wrong with it.

Then with fear of God they began to eat. And having eaten somewhat, Jesus said again: "Truly I say to you, that it were better to burn a city than to leave an evil custom. For on account of such is God wroth with the princes and kings of the earth, to whom God has given the sword to destroy iniquities."

Afterwards said Jesus: "When you are invited, remember not to set yourself in the highest place, in order that if a greater friend of the host come the host say not to you: "Arise and sit lower down!' which were a shame to you. But go and sit in the meanest place, in order that he who invited you may come and say: "Arise, friend, and come and sit here, above!" For then shall you have great honour: for every one that exalts himself shall be humbled, and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.

'Truly I say to you, that Satan became not reprobate for any other sin than for his pride. Even as says the prophet Isaiah;, reproaching him with these words: "How are you fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, that were the beauty of the angels, and did shine like the dawn: truly to earth is fallen your pride!"

'Truly I say to you, that if a man knew his miseries, he would always weep here on earth and account himself most mean, beyond every other thing. For no other cause did the first man with his wife weep for a hundred years without ceasing, craving mercy of God. For they knew truly where they had fallen through their pride."

And having said this, Jesus gave thanks; and that day it was published through Jerusalem how great things Jesus had said, with the miracle he had wrought, insomuch that the people gave thanks to God blessing his holy name.

But the scribes and priests, having understood that he spoke against the traditions of the elders, were kindled with greater hatred. And like Pharaoh they hardened their heart: wherefore they sought occasion to slay him, but found it not.

"Sura 4:171

O People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of God aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) a messenger of God, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a Spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in God and His messengers. Say not "Three (Trinity)" : desist: it will be better for you: for God is One God. Glory be to Him: (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is God as a Disposer of affairs"

Funny how the Qu'ran contradicts itself. How can one man be the Word of God and the Spirit of God and not be God? How can Olabowale be the Spirit of Efeosa, or Efeosa's word? (I really do want you to answer this)

You see when we say you're ignorant, you take offense. The "word" God described according to the Ko'ran is when He says: "Be-and it is".
This explains God plans can't be frustrated if He commands something, it must be done.This is not like your bible that says: In the beginning was God and the Word was God. Get it!

The "word" that most deluded fellows call God is actually meant to be said" In the beginning was God and the Word was God's"

Cayon:
Well I wouldn't refer to it as the great book but its an "interesting" book. I wish others take the time to read it.

Yeah, but not only interesting but very(2X) unique. It focuses on subjects concerning human nature. God knows the human psycology. That's why the critics of the Ko'ran are stuck dumb because of the answers it gives. No matter what a disbeliever thinks of concerning the book, he is just confused!

Now, do you believe it is Muhamm'ed that just sat down, studied the Bible and then wrote the Ko'ran?
To find it more interesting, you can even listen to the Ko'ran with English spoken with a Western English accent(American) following the famous Musl'im convert translator's work: Muhamm'ed Murkmadu Pickthall. He is the best translator though Yusuf Ali is usually accepted to be the most accepted because a Non-Mu'slim can understand.

If you're interested in getting te 31-CD translation spoken by Azhar Asalam or have a question concerning the Ko'ran, email me:[email]femisalawudeen@yahoo.co.uk[/email].

I assume you want to know the truth and not that you wish to critise the book's nobility.

@ Frizzy

You still believe the Gospel of Barnabas to be true or do you believe the Qu'ran? Lol.

How many times will I explain to you guys that the Gospel of Barnabas' minute differences from the Ko'ran has nothing to with your belief in what God is.
The Ko'ran is perfect and the Gospel may not be 100% accurate but is 1000% truer than what the fabricated Pauline bible says. The Ko'ran further explains that the doctors of law and rabbis changed the word told (to)them for another saying.
So All'ah cursed them and promise them the penalty of burning except those who repent and make known the truth before dying- which Paul for example did not!

Chapter 34 JESUS TEACHETH HUMILITY  

There stood before the door one who had his right hand shrunken in such fashion that he could not use it.

Chapter 33 IDOLATRY REBUKED

Then Jesus said: "Truly all that which a man loves, for which he leaves everything else but that, is his god. And so the fornicator has for his image the harlot, the glutton and drunkard has for image his own flesh, and the covetous has for his image silver and gold, and so likewise every other sinner." Then said he who had invited him: "Master, which is the greatest sin?"

Jesus answered: "Which is the greatest ruin of a house?" Every one was silent, when Jesus with his finger pointed to the foundation, and said: "If the foundation give way, immediately the house falls in ruin, in such wise that it is necessary to build it up anew: but if every other part give way it can be repaired. Even so then say I to you, that idolatry is the greatest sin, because it deprives a man entirely of faith, and consequently of God; so that he can have no spiritual affection. But every other sin leaves to man the hope of obtaining mercy: and therefore I say that idolatry is the greatest sin." All stood amazed at the speaking of Jesus, for they perceived that it could not in any wise be assailed.

Then Jesus continued: "Remember that which God spoke and which Moses and Joshua wrote in the Law, and you shall see how grave is this sin. God said, speaking to Israel: "You shall not make to yourself any image of those things which are in heaven nor of those things which are under the heaven, nor shall you make it of those things which are above the earth, nor of those which are under the earth; nor of those which are above the water, nor of those which are under the water. For I am your God, strong and jealous, who will take vengeance for this sin upon the fathers and upon their children even to the fourth generation."

Remember how, when our people had made the calf, and when they had worshipped it, by commandment of God Joshua and the tribe of Levi took the sword and slew of them one hundred and twenty thousand of those that did not crave mercy of God. Oh, terrible judgment of God upon the idolaters!"

Nairalanders, what are we doing to stop this?
The present state of this great nation is apalling, there is no sector that is functioning as it should be.
What kind of officials do we have? why are we allowing this to go on.
youth of the land, this is our land now, what are we going to leave for our children?
People!!! don't let the present situation of this country dictate how we live.
We should lead and life should follow, not the other way round.
Nairalanders, what are we doing?

That's the problem with many Nigerians, there is poverty and most at the same time are corrupt. People tend to justify their corrupt practises by saying they are only seeking their rightly share of the "national cake". But is this right? A typical Nigerian politicians will promise heaven and earth that he will surely efffect a change. What you notice is when he becomes elected, there is a change of priority."Ah, I must help my aburos, and must acquire all I can because I wont get the chance again".

Believing that this solves his misery. However, when he is out of office, he is known by many people to be a thief! Am not a politician, but there could still be some who don't seek worldy gains for their appointment; but you notice that they are either not commended for their works or frustrated out of office. The last solution to many is to "join the league of thieves".

What I don't understand of Nigerians is that many of them are vast in the Ko'ran and bible and very religious on Fridays and Sundays. You see pastors preaching and warning their followers not to engage in corruption, you see Mus'lims(this time the hypocrites) sitting and waiting for the Friday sermons; only to leave as they came. No lesson learnt.

People are poor and the leaders are very wealthy. Why is these? I must say Nigerians, no one or hardly will you see someone who is ready to effect a change even if it may lead to death. Everyone among the poor feel comfortable in their misery, they can't let go to their government or institue a revolution. Even the rich Nigerians, most of them are corrupt. Why is it that they is no constant electricity, water supply, basic social infrastructure like gas pipe in every household? Because they(the government) don't set a priority to put them in place. All they know is looting!

What I don't understand is how greedy people could be, they steal all they can, even for their generations to come. Ha! Just consider the fact that since you can eat thrice daily, wear good clothes and recieve what is reasonable as salary- what more?! They never consider probably because they all want their names on forbes- which they can never achieve.

In conclusion, I don't know that Nigeria owes me personally speaking, my education no, even the busary I never got. The S.You.G is full of corrupt young men who speak "greatest this and that" all noise. If the youths are as bad as the elderly- your question concerning what we leave for the next generation maybe further chaos or confusion.

Except Nigerians have a new and truthful revolution within themselves. Stop cheating other Nigerians because you think they just got the country and wish to invest. Don't cheat the Oyinbo people too, love your work and Mr.employer don't exploit your workers because you think they are fools. The basic problem with Nigeria is not Nigeria but its people-the Nigerians; many are not sincere.
Mr.Politician- Why do you decieve people when your goal is to destory, yet you get all the honours and shame eventually. Let me say that all we do, there is a Watcher, seeing you closely only that you may be unaware!

Unfortunately for you, you lack the power to effect any change in this matter. All you're reduced to is ranting on an internet blog.

Gay people are the least of my problems. I personally am no fan of homosexual sex, but to each his own.

It's so sad when you see many men enjoining evil when there lots of problems concerning the issue. Your continous sayings that it is not your concern infers that there is no reason to resist evil-doing, at least it is their life.

I really feel sorry for all that support these people(homosexuals) or think they should have a right to even co-habitate. For the guy saying they have to pays taxes, the solution should that if any is involved in this act, he/she should be prosecuted or killed! However, the U.S is believed to be the land of the great satans, how wont they support it when evil always appears good.

You are complaining of hurricanes and some states are even building quake-proof houses- Ah! their deciet will surely ruin them.

Are you saying that you are in approval of the acts carried out under the command of god in Numbers 31?

I have no reason to question God's act. As far as am concerned God avenges and says His vengance is awful. So He says: O mankind! Fear Me and transgress not My commandments.

May God have mercy upon you for your relentless effort to put the country in shape. I pray you recover soon since God is able to do all things.Amin

From the Ko'ran- God says: Think not that those love to be seen of men and who love to be praised of what they have not done, think not, theirs is an awful doom.

huxley:
The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all of fiction: jealous and proud of it: a petty unjust unforgiving control-freak: a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser: a misogynistic homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully. Those of us schooled from infancy in his ways can become desensitized to their horror.
