RelevantSolutio:No brother, I do not concur with you, and this is why: The concept of holiness is alien to Islam. They believe in good works but the said good works have a lot of human imperfections accompanying it. Vanessa cannot be feeling the presence of the Holy Spirit amongst Muslims because the Muslims themselves don't believe in the Holy Spirit. And no, the Lord Jesus was the one who said "Wherever two or more are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst of them." The Holy Spirit does not come into a gathering that is not convened in Jesus' name. However, I'm with you regarding the notion that some Christians see grace as a license for sins. If I were posting for a Christian audience, I would have made more clarifications while attenuating the fact that God Himself does the work through us when we yield and submit ourselves to be led by the Holy Spirit and not by fleshly desires (Romans 8:14). There's great repercussion for anyone who despises the Spirit of Grace and uses it as a cloak for licentious living. A Christian is someone who has genuine encounters with Christ and has mortified the flesh to live according to the leading of the Spirit of God. A Christian is not necessarily someone who goes to church, preach behind a pulpit or bears a Christian name. The world finds it difficult to spot the difference. |
AntiChristian:A brother of yours Explore2xmore wisely asked questions rather than put forward the false Islamic narrative they give you about Paul. I had initially told him that the Christians of Paul's days verified Paul's claims while nobody verified Mohammed's. He asked me for further clarifications about Paul, and I provided him the details below: Please patiently read through. Also understand that Paul's real name was Saul. His name was changed to Paul sometimes after he became a Christian. See, in Christianity, we're commanded to try all spirits. Except you're ignorant, it's very difficult for anyone to deceive Spirit-filled Christians. We're given the Holy Spirit who gives us discernment. If Paul lied, he'll be bursted. Elymas the soccerer couldn't succeed even though he tried all he could to make himself look like a Christian. Verification usually takes place before acceptance. Then, the Holy Spirit confirms that person. For Paul, this was how it happened: After his encounter with Jesus, he was blinded and led by the hands into Damascus. Then, the Lord Jesus Himself spoke to one of the disciples in Damascus about Paul as seen below: Acts 9:10-19 " 10 In Damascus there was a disciple named Ananias. The Lord called to him in a vision, “Ananias!” “Yes, Lord,” he answered. 11 The Lord told him, “Go to the house of Judas on Straight Street and ask for a man from Tarsus named Saul, for he is praying. 12 In a vision he has seen a man named Ananias come and place his hands on him to restore his sight.” 13 “Lord,” Ananias answered, “I have heard many reports about this man and all the harm he has done to your holy people in Jerusalem. 14 And he has come here with authority from the chief priests to arrest all who call on your name.” 15 But the Lord said to Ananias, “Go! This man is my chosen instrument to proclaim my name to the Gentiles and their kings and to the people of Israel. 16 I will show him how much he must suffer for my name.” 17 Then Ananias went to the house and entered it. Placing his hands on Saul, he said “Brother Saul, the Lord—Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here—has sent me so that you may see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit.” 18 Immediately, something like scales fell from Saul’s eyes, and he could see again. He got up and was baptized, 19 and after taking some food, he regained his strength. Please, take note of the words in Italics. Paul wasn't the one who went about telling Christians about his encounter. And, that wasn't even enough. Paul was rejected when he attempted to join the disciples in Jerusalem on his return from Damascus." Then in Acts 9:26: "When he came to Jerusalem, he tried repeatedly to associate with the disciples; and yet they were all afraid of him, as they did not believe that he was a disciple.' It took the efforts of Barnabas, one of the top disciples to interrogate Paul and afterwards present him as a true disciple to those in Jerusalem. Upon verification of his Damascus encounter, the testimonies of the disciples in Damascus, the confirmation of Ananias and the recommendation of Barnabas, he was accepted under probation before he was later commissioned by the Holy Ghost to preach. He didn't push himself forward. A word of prophesy commissioned him and Barnabas to preach in Acts 13:2. Before he was commissioned to preach, he was further verified. He himself submitted himself for further verification. It was a serious grilling. You can read the whole account in Galatians 2. Paul stated the results of the grilling in Galatians 2:9: "James, Cephas and John, those esteemed as pillars, gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship when they recognized the grace given to me. They agreed that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised." Note that the person called Cephas here is Peter. Now, tell us how Mohammed's encounter with the said angel Gabriel was verified. |

TenQ:It's not him. Actually, he doesn't know what he's doing himself. He's under the influence of the spirit of Islam. |
TenQ:Lol. |
TenQ:Their conscience is seared with hot iron. Their ultimate goal is to make allah and Mohammed look good. The fate of their own souls do not matter to them. |
Explore2xmore:Paul's meeting of Jesus was first verified by the disciples of Jesus before he was finally accepted into the fold! Who verified the meeting of Mohammed with the said angel Gabriel? I really want an answer to this question. Also, your Quran and your hadith are your holy books. Do you now want to deny your hadith because they're not the sayings of Allah and Mohammed? Are your hadith now filthy books? Thirdly, keep your pbuh to yourself while referring to Christ. He is the Prince of Peace. He needs no such prayers. Mohammed needs such prayers as his fate was actually uncertain to him. He was even afraid to face death. Unfortunately for him, prayers don't work for the dead. Once you die, your fate is sealed. |
TenQ:That's how they do. In one breath they'll reverence their books as holy books, in another breath, they'll deny the same books whenever incriminating evidences stare them in the face. You'll quote from their Quran directly, they'll call you a liar. Very funny guys. |
Explore2xmore:It only means your religious books are not comprehensive if you unwittingly accept that position. He can only use what your religion presents to make his points. |
Explore2xmore:Meanwhile, you're unable to prove beyond reasonable doubt that TenQ is a hearsay speaker. We have no reason to take you seriously. |
Explore2xmore:The scriptures you're quiting don't correlate God is a Creator. He gave Humans, angels and Satan a sub-creator ability. For instance, a man created Nairaland. Or was it God that created Nairaland? Satan created Islam. Not God, and I have shown you the main purpose for which he did that. Satan is an intelligent being with whims and caprices. He has created many religions in order to confuse human beings regarding the true God. His major purpose on Earth is to take as many people as possible to hell, and to achieve that, he must work deceptively to make men reject Jesus the Saviour's sacrificial offering for their souls, or to make them believe He never died for their salvation. |
Explore2xmore:Only God can create life. Humans, angels and Satan can create organizations, designs, fashions, weapons even new terminologies, technologies, religions, etc. What we can't do is that we cannot create life. Only God can create life. |
Explore2xmore:I'l answer the biblical question you raised but I wouldn't want to digress on the topic being discussed. I never said Allah was Satan. I only showed you a video that demonstrates how words were wrongly translated in the Quran. The content of that video wasn't my focus. Now, let's take the word makir as an example. You can't give it a meaning it never has just because of the context in which it is used in the Quran. It can't have a different meaning in the Quran other than the meanings for which it is already know in the Arabic Dictionary. See it's meaning in the screenshot below. Now, regarding the Bible verses you raised, please understand that the Old Testament was never intended as a religious book. It was written only as a book to record Israel's history as well as document the activities and gemology of Israelites, their kings and Prophets. They were later adopted as religious books because of the spiritual insights they give on how to walk with God. The main religious books are the 5 books of Moses also called the Torah. Now, there are two recorders of same events in the verses you referenced. These two people wrote according to their understanding of what God is. In Hebrew theology, it is generally believed that both good and evil come from God. The writer who holds this ideology wrote that God did move David to number Israel. The other writer who holds a different ideology, wrote that Satan moved David to number Israel. So, the verses don't express God as being Satan or vice versa. The Bible was not written verbatim by God. God moved people to write, and while they did so, God did not take their understanding from them. That's why the Spirit of God dwells in us to give us the true message and gems of scripture. The letters of the Bible kill, it is the Spirit that gives life. The above explanations do not hold for the Quran because the Quran claims to be the verbatim word of God. |
Ajakaiye83:Why don't you contact their customer care? |
chiagozien:The guy is Igbo. He's just trying to sow discord among Yorubas. He's not speaking for Yoruba Christians. |
Explore2xmore:I actually replied you yesterday but bots banned me. I don't actually know why. I screenshot the post after I was banned. Please read my reply in the screenshots below:

Explore2xmore:Yeah. The videos further buttress my points. |
Explore2xmore:My friend, TenQ has addressed this issue many times here. Whenever you guys lay claims to fabrications, he provides evidences of authenticity, and then the critics are silenced. Read through his previous threads to verify. Regarding language translations, he brings translations from numerous sources and also compares literal Arabic renderings word for word. We have seen that most English translations of the Quran actually make some dubious attempts to alter the true meanings of some arabic words in order to deceive the reader and conceal the real meaning of those words from him. Take for instance an example from the video below. The narrator showed the gymnastics that the translators did in translating some of the names of Allah towards the end of the video. This scenario is very rampant in Islamic translations. You can't get the whole truth except you know Arabic and read your Quran in Arabic. The translators are out to deceive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvxkx0BnAA8&pp=ygUOQWxsYWggaXMgc2F0YW4%3D |
My friend, Jesus came before Mohammed. He was prophesied of God before His arrival. He accomplished everything that was Prophesied about Him, including the exchange of His life for the redemption of the world. The greatest blow Jesus dealt Satan was His death on the cross. His death on the cross permitted Him to operate against Satan in the spirit realm as a man and recover man's lost glory for man. This death, which is Christ's greatest accomplishment and Satan's greatest woe is what Satan created Islam to deny. Remove the death of Christ from everything in His existence, and His coming to the world immediately becomes useless. It's Christ's death that is the Hallmark of Christianity. That is the seal of salvation. It is the emblem of Satan's eternal defeat. To conceal his defeat and keep men in perpetual ignorance, he created Islam to deny that Christ died and resurrected. Meanwhile, the Jesus portrayed in the Quran is a false Jesus. That Jesus isn't the Jesus of the Bible. The Jesus of the Bible came into the world through the Virgin birth purposely to make His soul an offering for sins. He actually came here as "the lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world." Tell me why Islam denies the same death that is the core message of salvation. Tell me why Islam denies the death of Christ which is the greatest blow satan suffered in all of eternity. The only one who can deny such event is that Satan who was most affected by it, and wants to keep people ignorant regarding the defeat he suffered on the cross. This truth has been spreading around the world for 600yrs before Satan created Islam to deny this truth regarding Satan:s defeat. You can choose what to believe but I know that the Original always appears before a counterfeit is created. Islam cannot be original because it was created as a counterfeit to counter Christianity. And, you'll soon see the reason why. The most important counter Satan needs is to deny the death and the resurrection of Christ because therein lies Satan's defeat. If Christ didn't die for sins, the Virgin birth is Useless. Thankfully, your Quran does not deny the virgin birth, but it denies the purpose of it. Why? Islam is claiming that Jesus indeed came into the world as promised but did not fulfil the purpose for which He was born. If such an event as the death and resurrection of Christ is being denied 600yrs after it happened, now, you can easily decipher who authored the Quran and the purpose for which Islam was invented. |
Let TenQ come and respond by himself but before he does, let me give my observations. TenQ quotes from your Quoran and hadith. Whenever he quotes from your books, he references the particular chapters, verses, and in case of hadith, he reference authors as well. I can't remember all the authors but I've seen some names like Albukari or something. Sometimes, he emphasises that the hadith are sahi - I don't know the exact spelling but I think it means 'authentic'. Then, he also mebtions quoting from Tafsirs or something like that too. I've not seen him ever quoting from the said Jewish convert you are parading here. Except you want to say that TenQ follows the Quran, Tafsirs and hadiths that are created by the said Jewish convert. Or, do you mean that the Quran, Tafsirs and hadiths are followers of the said Jewish convert? TenQ can only be a follower of the said Jewish convert if the Quran, hadith and Tafsirs he quotes from are followers or authored by the Jewish convert. |
jaephoenix:People could do anything in the name of religion. Wise people differentiate what is commanded from what is not commanded Can you find any reference in the Bible for your claim? The claim of the OP was taken from the Quran. |
TenQ:You see now? Which deceiver would boldly tell you to test the spirits? |
TenQ:I tell you bro. If you can't ask questions, you're already in bondage for sure. |
TenQ:Yeah, your posts are two-edged swords. The open the eyes of Muslims to their errors, and also warn people of other faiths concerning the deception of Islam. Do you know that due to ignorance and satanic deception, most people who were never religious in their lives, on their death beds, when asked to choose between the Bible and the Quran before departing to the great beyond, most of these people, being deceived by the God of this world often choose the Quran and have an Alfa pray for them before dieing? If they've had access to your type of expositions before reaching that stage in life, they'll certainly make better choices. |
Christistruth00:I didn't see any image of the pastor and wife plastered everywhere. The poster bears the image of the pastor and wife for easy Identification of the church organizing the program. The program itself is all about Jesus. The medium through which participants are attracted is not an issue. What matters is 'Who are they attracting them to?' You don't need to mention Jesus before you attract people to church. When they come to church, they'll hear about Jesus anyway. Jesus has been hung on the cross as the serpent was in the wilderness. He has left the cross and now resides on our hearts. Tell me how that passage of scripture validates cross imagery in the life of a Christian. |
Christistruth00:Please first show me the said plastered images of the pastor and his wife all over the church. The scriptures you quoted in Colossians 2 did not validate the symbolism of the cross but only told us what happened on the cross. Please present your facts with truth and honesty. Show me any reference in the early church to cross images. Show me the images of the said pastor and his wife plastered all over the church! |
Christistruth00:Can you make a single reference to an instance in which the early church in the days of the apostles used the cross as a Christian symbol? The image of the cross was introduced through Roman Catholicism which worships images. However, the presence or the absence of a cross in a church premise or anywhere does not imply anything. It all depends on the intents of the actors. If you erect a cross as a symbol of worship, you ere. If you erect it as a reminder of Christ's ultimate sacrifice for salvation, you do nothing nothing wrong. If you do not erect it because you think the cross is useless to the Christian faith, you ere. If you don't erect it because you want to avoid idolatery, given that the risen Christ Himself lives in your heart, you've done nothing wrong. Intent is the most important thing. |
The Lord console his family and fill the vacuum he has left behind. Some day, we all shall meet on that beautiful shore. |
TenQ:Yes bro. God has been using you to do a great job. You can never know the impact you've made until we appear before the judgement seat of Christ to receive the rewards. Keep it up bro. The Lord would upon their eyes and set the captives free. We'll never stop praying for them. |
TenQ:Each piece of truth after truth would gradually dismantle the web of lies. |
TenQ:Hmm. I wish you could create a thread to compare between the Christian heaven and the Muslim heaven so that readers could determine which is the real or false heaven. |
