May God Almighty remove the veil of darkness that is blocking you from seeing the light of truth.

Jesus said; I WAS SENT ONLY TO THE LOST SHEEP OF ISRAEL (Matthew 15:24 NIV).

Please tell me the meaning of "ONLY". What better words do you want Jesus to use before you can believe that he was never sent to you ? How did you even manage to cope with this very verse whenever it comes to your mind ? Or you just close your mind and shut up your inner conscience ? Is God Almighty not aware of this very verse being present in the Bible. Then why did God allow it to stay in the Bible till this very day if Jesus was truly sent to the entire world. Don't you see the contradiction ? Do you even know that this very verse is enough to crucify you before God on the day of Judgement if you prefer Christianity to Islam ?

Again, you asked me to accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior. But see what God Almighty says ;

I, even I, am the LORD and besides Me there is no Savior (Isaiah 43:11).

Now how do you reconcile your belief in Jesus as Lord and Savior with this very verse that says beside God Almighty there is no Savior ? Or do you want say that Jesus is God Almighty? Then what about John 20:17 where Jesus was reported to have said:

“I am ascending to my Father and your Father, and to my God and your God”.

If Jesus is God Almighty, then which God was he referring to when he said ; "my God and your God" ? Can God Almighty have another God?


Have you now seen that Christianity is NOT COHERENT

These are the unresolvable problems we are seeing with Christianity. But you pretend as if all these problems are not real and continue to shout that Jesus is the way the truth and the life.

Honestly we believe in Jesus as a prophet sent by God. But we do not believe in Christianity that ask us to believe in him as our Lord and Savior.

This is exactly what I meant by a great BARRIER between Jesus and Christianity.

THE SHORTEST VERSION OF CHRISTIANITY THAT HAS NEVER COME TO YOUR MIND

When we cut off all the stories embellishing the myth of Christianity , we can actually break it down to just this:


"God was angry because Adam disobeyed Him by eating the forbidden fruit. Due to this very disobedience of their father, all the children of Adam were spiritually condemned (Romans 5:12,17-19) . The only way they can be saved from this spiritual condemnation is for God to send His ONLY innocent and righteous son to the earth and have the children of the same Adam torture and kill him, so that God can forgive them and everyone else for what Adam did".


This is the Christianity in a nutshell and it points out the ABSURDITY OF WASHING AWAY ONE SINFUL ACT WITH ANOTHER SINFUL ACT THAT IS MUCH MORE GREATER . After all, if Adam's eating the forbidden fruit was enough to condemn all the future generations of human being, then would not the brutal killing of the innocent and righteous son of God on the cross do the same and even much, much more?

God commanded Adam not to eat the forbidden fruit (Genesis 3:3), but he ate it and therefore, he committed a SINFUL ACT.

Similarly, God commanded the children of Adam not to kill an innocent and righteous soul ( Exodus 20:13, Matthew 19:18), but they killed the soul and therefore, they committed an act of MURDER which is also a SINFUL ACT.

Consequently, BOTH THE TWO SINFUL ACTS need atonement (i:e need to be washed away).

Therefore, ONE SINFUL ACT ( which itself also need atonement) CAN NEVER ATONE FOR ANOTHER SINFUL ACT.


IT IS ONLY THE ACT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS( which itself does not need any atonement) THAT CAN ATONE FOR SINFUL ACTS.


ACTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS -like animal sacrifice, sincere repentance, forgiving other people's faults, devotional prayer, fasting, giving of charity CAN ATONE FOR SINFUL ACTS.


But SINFUL ACTS like murder, theft, fornication, adultery, back biting, blasphemy, bearing false witness, lying etc CAN NEVER ATONE FOR ANOTHER SINFUL ACT.


We all know that 'murder' i:e killing an innocent and righteous human being is a SINFUL ACT. This is the reason why God forbid it (Exodus 20:13, Matthew 19:18) . Therefore, God Almighty can NEVER use such a SINFUL ACT( which itself also need atonement) to atone for all the SINFUL ACTS of humanity. This is EXACTLY the place where Christianity get it wrong .


In other words, God Almighty who says: "An innocent and righteous human being MUST NOT be killed (Exodus 20:13, Matthew 19:18)" would NOT LATER CONTRADICT HIMSELF by saying: "An innocent and righteous human being MUST be killed" on the cross of Calvary BEFORE THE HUMANITY CAN GAIN ETERNAL LIFE .

Honestly, the way of the Lord our God can be higher than our ways (Isaiah 55:8-9) but the way of the Lord our God can NEVER be contradictory.

The Christians may want to argue that killing of innocent and righteous Jesus on the cross is NOT A SINFUL ACT because it was Jesus himself that VOLUNTEER to die for our sins without being forced by God.

But if it is true that Jesus has volunteered himself to die for our sins, then why did he pray so FERVENTLY asking for the crucifixion to be TAKEN AWAY from him in THREE different consecutive times (Matthew 26:36-44) ? If Jesus had truly and willingly laid down his life in heaven to die for our sin, then he must have been prepared by God both physically and spiritually for this great task. In that case, there would be no need for that bloody sweating prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane (Luke 22:44). Even if we assume that Jesus must pray because of the FLESH that is WEAK, then that prayer should definitely be for the "STRENGTH" that will enable him to bear the task. It should NOT be for the cup of crucifixion to be TAKEN AWAY from him.
Furthermore, if Jesus had VOLUNTEERED to laid down his life in heaven, then why did he have to LAMENT on the cross by saying allegedly;
"My God, my God, why have you FORSAKEN me? (Matthew 27:46)".

Does this sound like the voice of a someone who has VOLUNTEERED himself to die for our sins? Certainly not !

Therefore, if we are to accept all these lamentations and bloody sweating prayer of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane to be true, then it is totally UNREASONABLE to proclaim that Jesus has VOLUNTARILY laid down his life to die for our sins. Therefore, the alleged killing of innocent Jesus on the cross is nothing but a MURDER. And murder is a SINFUL ACT.

Moreover, killing an innocent and righteous soul is BY ITSELF a sinful act because it is a direct violation of divine justice . This is the reason why God Himself forbids it (Exodus 20:13, Matthew 19:18). Therefore, the fact that the whole plan was masterminded by God as proclaimed by the Christians or the fact that Jesus volunteer himself to fulfil the plan did NOT change it from a SINFUL ACT to a righteous act.
In fact, we can equally claim that Adam's eating the forbidden fruit was also masterminded by God because God knew beforehand that Adam was going to eat the fruit and He has the power to prevent him and He did not . Yet this does not change what Adam did from a sinful act to a righteous one.
Similarly, if we ASSUME that alleged killing of Jesus on the cross was truly masterminded by God, then this can not change what the children of Adam did to Jesus from a SINFUL ACT to a righteous one. Especially when we take into consideration that alleged killing of innocent and righteous Jesus by the children of Adam completely NEGATE the God's command in Exodus 20:13 and Matthew 19:18.
So no matter how you feel it, the alleged killing of innocent and righteous Jesus on the cross is still a SINFUL ACT (i:e a murder)


As we have already established above, a sinful act, like MURDER (which itself also need atonement) can NEVER atone for another sinful act talk less of all the sinful acts of humanity.


IT IS ONLY THE ACT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS (which itself does not need any atonement) that can atone for the sinful acts of humanity. For example;

# Animal sacrifice (see Leviticus 5:7, 16:1-30),

# Sincere repentance ( see Isaiah 55:7, Jeremiah 36:3 Ezekiel 33:10-16, Luke 5:32, Acts 2:38),

# Forgiving other people's faults ( see Matthew 6:14, Mark 11:25, Luke 6:37),

# Devotional prayer (see 1st Kings 8:46-50, 2nd Chronicles 7:14 ),

# Fasting (see Jonah 3:5-10 )

# Giving of charity and showing mercy to the poor (see Exodus 30:15-16, Numbers 31:50, Daniel 4:27 )

are all RIGHTEOUS ACTS which God has used in the Bible to atone for the sins committed by different set of people.


In the light of all these facts, we are free to conclude that there is NO NEED for God to use the alleged ACT OF MURDER committed against the innocent and righteous Jesus(which itself also need atonement) to atone for our sins.

God can decide to choose from all the ACTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS LISTED ABOVE ( which themselves do not need any atonement) to wipe away the sins committed by Adam and his Children.


In that case, God must have answered that FERVENT prayer of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. Therefore, he must have escaped the death on the cross in a miraculous way (Qur'an 4:157) and he must have escaped the CURSE of God associated with anyone that died on the cross (Deuteronomy 21:23). Hence, Jesus (peace be upon him) could not have been that accursed person on the cross who deserved to be FORSAKEN by God (Matthew 27:46). Of course, it is totally IRRATIONAL for an innocent, righteous and beloved prophet of God to be accursed and forsaken by the same God.

When you take off the BLINDERS that are blocķing your view, you will realize that Christianity does not make any sense.

There are some Christians who wanted to argue that Allah deceived the people into thinking that Jesus was crucified and this is trickery and deception on the part of Allah.

This is my reply;

There was a time that all the people of the world believed that Earth is flat in shape due to HOW IT APPEAR PHYSICALLY TO THEIR SENSE OF SIGHT. Yet the Earth is not flat in shape but spherical
Now suppose God sent a prophet to this ancient people . And it was written in a book given to this prophet as follows;
"That they said( in boast):Earth is flat in shape. But the Earth is not flat in shape, BUT SO IT WAS MADE TO APPEAR TO THEM. They have no certain knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety, the earth is not flat in shape but spherical".
Based on this fact, Please can we say God Almighty deceived this people into thinking that Earth is flat ? Can we say God stoop to the level of trickery by making the Earth to look as being flat in shape IN THE EYES OF THESE ANCIENT PEOPLE?
Another analogy is the case of evolution. Evolutionists believe that human being evolved from great African apes due to vague resemblance between the physical appearance and the DNA of these two species . Now if God says ; "Human being did not evolve from apes. BUT SO IT WAS MADE TO APPEAR TO THEM", can we say God stoop to the level of trickery by making the the DNA and physical appearance of apes and human being to look alike in the EYES OF THESE EVOLUTIONISTS ?
All these are not trickery or deception on the part of God but MISCONCEPTION DUE TO INCOMPLETE KNOWLEDGE on the part of this ancient people and on the part of evolutionists.
Similar thing occur on the issue of Jesus crucifixion, Almost all the people of the earth including both the Jews and Christians believed that Jesus was crucified due to their INCOMPLETE KNOWLEDGE about what really happened. This is the reason why God says; "and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with NO CERTAIN KNOWLEDGE, but only conjecture to follow( Qur'an 4:157).
Therefore, Allah's statement " but so it was made to appear to them" that Jesus was crucified is NOT TRICKERY OR DECEPTION on the part of God but MISCONCEPTION DUE TO INCOMPLETE KNOWLEDGE ON THE PART OF THOSE WHO WITNESSED THE EVENTS.

Therefore, this fallacious argument cannot be used to justify the story of "one powerful and merciful Father who killed and cursed His ONLY righteous child simply because He wanted to forgive and save His remaining sinful children: Yet how the remaining sinful children became sinful is NOT without His knowledge and power".

Like the Christians;

1. Muslims believe in Jesus as a mighty prophet of God (Qur'an 19:30).
2. Muslims believe in Jesus miraculous birth(Qur'an 21:91)
3. Muslims believe in all the miracles Jesus performed during his earthly ministry (Qur'an 5:110)
4. Muslims believe in Jesus ascension to heaven (Qur'an 4:158)
5. Muslims believe in Jesus 2nd coming toward the end of the world.(Qur'an 43:57-61)
But on the issue of Jesus crucifixion, this is what the Qur'an says;
"That they ( i:e the Jews) said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of God";- but they KILL HIM NOT, NOR CRUCIFIED HIM, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no certain knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not (Qur'an 4:157)"
Here are six powerful biblical reasons why Qur'an must be true in saying that Jesus was not crucified;
1. Jesus prayed to God in the garden of Gethsemane in THREE DIFFERENT CONSECUTIVE TIMES asking for the "cup (i:e the crucifixion)" to be taken away from him;
“My Father, if it is possible, MAY THIS CUP BE TAKEN AWAY FROM ME. Yet not as I will, but as you will" (see Matthew 26:36-44)".
Jesus said; "IF IT IS POSSIBLE". YET EVERYTHING, THAT IS REASONABLE, IS POSSIBLE FOR GOD . And it is reasonable for God to save Jesus Christ from being crucified by his enemy.
Therefore, if God already knew that he would not answer this Jesus' prayer, then God must have kept the tongue of Jesus from using the phrase "IF IT IS POSSIBLE" because everything that is reasonable is possible for God.
Since God deliberately allowed Jesus to use the Phrase "IF IT IS POSSIBLE" in his prayer for the crucifixion to be taken away from him, then God must have answered Jesus prayer and then he must have escaped the crucifixion because everything that is reasonable is possible for God.
Why would God not answer his prayer when the soul of Jesus was EXCEEDINGLY SORROWFUL EVEN UNTO DEATH (Matthew 26:38) and prayed so earnestly to the extent that his SWEAT WAS LIKE DROPS OF BLOOD falling down to the ground (Luke 22:44). Remember, the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man ( let alone a righteous and beloved prophet of God like Jesus) avails much (James 5:16).
However, according to the Christian scholars, God still allowed Jesus to be crucified by his enemy DESPITE ALL HIS BLOOD SWEATING PRAYER because there is NO OTHER WAY for God to save the children of Adam from eternal damnation except through Jesus crucifixion.
THERE IS NO OTHER WAY for omnipotent and omniscient God ? Does this submission make any sense to you? Honestly, this is nothing but blasphemy and insult against the Majesty of God!
If God is All-powerful and All-knowing Creator, why must He be compelled to follow one particular way- especially a way that will later require Him to KILL and CURSE (see the 2nd point below) His only begotten son . Is that how an innocent, righteous and beloved son should be treated by his merciful and lovely Father ?
If it is an act of INJUSTICE for a merciful and lovely Father to FREELY forgive and save His OWN sinful children, then is it not a GREATER act of INJUSTICE for the same Father to kill and curse the ONLY righteous child among them ?
In fact, the whole story of Christianity can be summarized as follows;
"There is one powerful and merciful Father who killed and cursed His ONLY righteous child simply because He wanted to forgive and save His remaining sinful children: Yet how the remaining sinful children became sinful is NOT without His knowledge and power".
Before the advent of Christianity, can anybody in his right sense have just 1% belief in this story ?
But here we have today in our midst, men of knowledge and intellect and particularly professionals who have 100% belief in this story when the same story is repackaged and adorned with attire of religion.
2. Anyone that is hanged or crucified is accursed by God:
"Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, BEING MADE A CURSE for us: for it is written, CURSED IS EVERYONE that is hanged on a tree (Galatians 3:13)". See also Deuteronomy 21:23.
Yet it is totally against the divine principle for God to put His innocent, righteous and beloved son (or prophet) under His curse for any reason whatsoever.
Matthew 25:41says;
"Then he(Jesus) will also say to those on the LEFT HAND, Depart from me, you CURSED, into the everlasting fire, prepared for the DEVIL AND HIS ANGELS".
As you can see from the verse above: It is only those on the LEFT HAND who belong to the group of the "DEVIL AND HIS ANGELS " that are usually under the CURSE of God. It is impossible for an innocent, righteous and beloved prophet of God like Jesus to be under the SAME CURSE with the devil and his angels because he never did anything wrong or anything against the will of his Father. Therefore, Jesus must escape the crucifixion in order not to become an "accursed son of God" or "accursed prophet" or "accursed messiah".
3. Jesus was not sent to the entire world to die for our sins. He was sent ONLY to the lost sheep of the house of Israel (Matthew 15:24).
If Jesus was really sent to the entire world to die for both the Israelites and the Gentiles, then why did he have to tell that Canaanite woman that he was sent ONLY to the lost sheep of Israel (Matthew 15:21-24) ? Even if, according to the divine plan, Jesus and his apostles would first minister to the Israelites before the Gentiles, then Jesus' statement directed to that woman should have been: "IT IS NOT YET TIME FOR THE GENTILES" or something similar in meaning rather than “I WAS SENT ONLY TO THE LOST SHEEP OF THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL”. Why did Jesus have to say he was sent only to the Israelites if he was truly sent to the entire world to die on the cross for our sins ? This single fact alone is enough to prove that Jesus did not come to the world to die for our sins.
4. The sins of the sinners CANNOT be laid upon the righteous;
"The soul that sinned, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father; neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son. THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE RIGHTEOUS shall be upon him, and the WICKEDNESS OF THE WICKED shall be upon him" (Ezekiel 18:20).
Remember, this verse completely NULLIFY the main christian ideology which says : "the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon the righteous (i:e all the sin of sinners shall be laid upon Jesus Christ- 2 Corinthians 5:21, 1Peter 2:24, Hebrew 9:28)".
One important question need to be answered;
If the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him (as the verse above declare) and NOT upon the righteous (as the Christians use to claim), then how can the wicked be saved and not die as a result of his wickedness ?
Again, the book of Ezekiel answer this question;
"Son of man, say to the Israelites; this is what you are saying: our offenses and sins weigh us down, and we are wasting away because of them. How then can we live? Say to them: as surely as I live declares the sovereign Lord, I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that they turn from their ways and live. Turn! TURN FROM YOUR EVIL WAYS! Why will you die, people of Israel? Therefore, son of man say to your people if someone, one who is wicked, REPENTS, that person’s former wickedness will not bring condemnation And if I say to the wicked person, you will surely die, but they then TURN FROM THEIR SINS and do what is just and right…follow the decree that gives life, and do no evil --THAT PERSON WILL SURELY LIVE :THEY WILL NOT DIE. NONE OF THE SINS that person has committed will be remembered against them. They have done what is just and right; they will surely live (Ezekiel 33:10-16)".
Have you now seen that there is no need for the righteous to bear the sins of the sinners before the sinners can be saved and lived. The sinners can simply atone for their sins by REPENTANCE.
Jesus confirmed this truth when he said; I came not to call the righteous, but SINNERS TO REPENTANCE (Luke 5:32).
If Jesus has actually come to die for the sinners, he would have mentioned it in this verse since he was talking about the purpose of his coming WITH RESPECT TO THE SINNERS.
5. The death of Jesus on the cross is NOT necessary; Old testament believers were able to gain salvation without Jesus crucifixion.
God can decide to forgive our sins and earn our salvation through SINCERE REPENTANCE (see Ezekiel 33:10-16 quoted above) coupled with ANNUAL ANIMAL SACRIFICE ;
"He is to lay both hands on the head of the live GOAT and confess over it all the wickedness and rebellion of the Israelites —ALL THEIR SINS— and put them on the goat’s head. He shall send the GOAT away into the wilderness in the care of someone appointed for the task. The GOAT will carry on itself ALL THEIR SINS to a remote place; and the man shall release it in the wilderness....... .. Then, before the Lord, you will be CLEAN FROM ALL YOUR SINS (Leviticus 16:21-30)"
Here we read in the last verse ; “Then before the LORD, you will be CLEAN FROM ALL YOUR SINS” (Leviticus 16:30).
Yet the new Testament proclaimed that; " It is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to TAKE AWAY SINS (Hebrew 10:4)".
This is a flat contradiction. Is there any difference between "CLEAN FROM ALL SINS" and "TAKE AWAY SINS" ?
The only way to resolve this contradiction is when we assume that the phrase "TAKE AWAY SINS" in Hebrews 10:4 implies "complete removal of humanity sinful nature" and NOT referring to "cleanliness from already committed sins".
However, complete removal of humanity sinful nature is impossible as NOBODY can be completely FREE from committing sins (see 1 John:8-10).
Therefore, Hebrew 10:4 is a great lie deliberately fabricated by Paul to weaken the atonement of sins through animal sacrifice and then justify atonement of sins through Jesus crucifixion.
Therefore, if the main purpose of Jesus crucifixion is to achieve forgiveness and cleanliness from our sins, then the death of Jesus on the cross IS NOT NECESSARY; IT IS NOT THE ONLY WAY as claimed by the Christian scholars. God can decide to forgive our sins through sincere repentance or through animal sacrifice as He has done with the Old testament believers that lived and died before Jesus arrival.
Some Christians might want to argue that Jesus crucifixion make us entitle to many spiritual benefits that GO BEYOND forgiveness and cleanliness from our sins. But no matter how numerous the spiritual benefits that can be derived from Jesus crucifixion, there is no way for such benefits to be ACTUALIZED in the life of the Old Testament believers (like Abraham, Isaac, Jacob,Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah etc) because they have lived and died before Jesus arrival talk less of his supposed crucifixion. Yet these people manage to earn their salvation and reconciliation back to God (because there is no any biblical verse that says these Old Testament believers were in a certain state of condemnation after their death until the time of Jesus crucifixion). So if these old testament believers, who happened to be among the children of Adam, were able to gain their salvation without Jesus crucifixion, then there is alternative way also for the other children of Adam to gain their salvation WITHOUT Jesus crucifixion.
6. The act of crucifying one human being (Jesus ) to save the humanity from one problem or the other is nothing but human sacrifice. Yet God Almighty hates human sacrifice (see Deuteronomy 12:31 and Leviticus 18:21 ).
If, according to the Christians, God Almighty can carry out human sacrifice, then what is the difference between Christianity and traditional African religions which also support human sacrifice? Is there any difference between the two ? As Jesus was not willing to die (see the first reason above) so also the victims of the traditional African religions are not willing to die.
Paul declare as follows;
"I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain (Galatians 2:21)".
So according to Paul “human sacrifice” is the grace of God. Yet the same Christians, who agree that Paul is right in his claim, would continue to condemn traditional Africa religions for engaging in human sacrifice. Why the double standard since “human sacrifice” is “human sacrifice” ?
WAS JESUS REALLY CRUCIFIED ?
The Holy Quran replies and the choice is yours: “they KILL HIM NOT, NOR CRUCIFIED HIM ( Holy Quran 4:157)".
Now let us assume that Jesus crucifixion is true. Do you think Muslims are deserve to be condemned by God on the last day simply because they fail to believe in Jesus crucifixion despite all their five beliefs (cited at the beginning) concerning Jesus Christ?
To answer this question, let suppose the following conversation take place between God Almighty and the Muslims on the day of Judgement on the assumption that Jesus crucifixion is true
God: O you Muslims why did you refuse to believe in Jesus crucifixion ?
Muslims : O Lord our God and creator, Qur'an make us to believe in Jesus as Your mighty prophet who was born miraculously by virgin Mary. Qur'an also make us to believe in all the miracles that Jesus performed during his earthly ministry. Furthermore, Qur'an make us to believe in Jesus'ascension to heaven and that he is coming back toward the end of the world. So it is also written in the same Qur'an that Jesus was not crucified.
God; Yes, your Qur'an is true regarding all those things it mentioned concerning Jesus. But why are you so sure that your Qur'an did not get it wrong on the issue of Jesus crucifixion ?
Muslims: O Lord our God and Creator, the reason why we believe that Qur'an is also true on the issue of Jesus crucifixion is because Bible also declare that anyone that is crucified is accursed by God (Deuteronomy 21:23, Galatians 3:13) and it is is not possible for You as a God of love, mercy and justice to put your innocent and beloved prophet under Your curse. From the logical reasoning you gave to us as human being, we realized that only the devils and his followers are deserved to be under your curse: NOT your innocent, righteous and beloved prophet like Jesus Christ, who never did anything against Your Will. You are naturally known to always BLESS Your innocent, righteous and beloved prophets and never to CURSE any one of them.
Please do you think God Almighty can still have an evidence against the Muslims concerning the issue of Jesus crucifixion base on this reasonable reply ?
Consequently, even if Jesus crucifixion is true, Muslims CANNOT BE CONDEMNED by God for not believing in it; they CANNOT BE PERISHED. Yet Paul wrote in his epistle:
"the message of the cross ( i:e Jesus crucifixion) is foolishness to those who are PERISHING (1st Corinthians 1:18)".
See how Paul got it wrong!
Jesus crucifixion is one of the FOUNDATIONAL PILLARS of the present day Christianity . You will notice that the symbol of "CROSS" used to represent Christianity stands for Jesus crucifixion. In other words, if there is no Jesus crucifixion, then there is no Christianity.
Hence, if the ONLY true faith from God is Christianity, then being one of the foundational pillars of Christianity, NOBODY MUST HAVE A STRONG AND REASONABLE EXCUSE for not believing in Jesus crucifixion . However, as we have shown above, Muslims have a strong and reasonable excuse for not believing in Jesus crucifixion. Therefore, the ONLY true faith from God is NOT Christianity. And if the ONLY true faith from God is not Christianity, then Christianity must be a FALSE faith. Being a false faith, Jesus Christ has nothing to do with Christianity.
Therefore, in order not to neglect Jesus completely, all Christians must embrace Islam. This is because apart from Christianity, Islam is the only faith on earth that make believing in Jesus and all other biblical prophets as one of the basic and most fundamental article of its faith.

Like the Christians;
1. Muslims believe in Jesus as a mighty prophet of God (Qur'an 19:30).

2. Muslims believe in Jesus miraculous birth(Qur'an 21:91)

3. Muslims believe in all the miracles Jesus performed during his earthly ministry (Qur'an 5:110)

4. Muslims believe in Jesus ascension to heaven (Qur'an 4:158)

5. Muslims believe in Jesus 2nd coming toward the end of the world.(Qur'an 43:57-61)

But on the issue of Jesus crucifixion, this is what the Qur'an says;

"That they ( i:e the Jews) said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of God";- but they KILL HIM NOT, NOR CRUCIFIED HIM, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no certain knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not (Qur'an 4:157)"


Here are six powerful biblical reasons why Qur'an must be true in saying that Jesus was not crucified;


1. Jesus prayed to God in the garden of Gethsemane in THREE DIFFERENT CONSECUTIVE TIMES asking for the "cup (i:e the crucifixion)" to be taken away from him;

“My Father, if it is possible, MAY THIS CUP BE TAKEN AWAY FROM ME. Yet not as I will, but as you will" (see Matthew 26:36-44)".

Jesus said; "IF IT IS POSSIBLE". YET EVERYTHING, THAT IS REASONABLE, IS POSSIBLE FOR GOD . And it is reasonable for God to save Jesus Christ from being crucified by his enemy.

Therefore, if God already knew that he would not answer this Jesus' prayer, then God must have kept the tongue of Jesus from using the phrase "IF IT IS POSSIBLE" because everything that is reasonable is possible for God.

Since God deliberately allowed Jesus to use the Phrase "IF IT IS POSSIBLE" in his prayer for the crucifixion to be taken away from him, then God must have answered Jesus prayer and then he must have escaped the crucifixion because everything that is reasonable is possible for God.

Why would God not answer his prayer when the soul of Jesus was EXCEEDINGLY SORROWFUL EVEN UNTO DEATH (Matthew 26:38) and prayed so earnestly to the extent that his SWEAT WAS LIKE DROPS OF BLOOD falling down to the ground (Luke 22:44). Remember, the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man ( let alone a righteous and beloved prophet of God like Jesus) avails much (James 5:16).

However, according to the Christian scholars, God still allowed Jesus to be crucified by his enemy DESPITE ALL HIS BLOOD SWEATING PRAYER because there is NO OTHER WAY for God to save the children of Adam from eternal damnation except through Jesus crucifixion.
THERE IS NO OTHER WAY for omnipotent and omniscient God ? Does this submission make any sense to you? Honestly, this is nothing but blasphemy and insult against the Majesty of God!

If God is All-powerful and All-knowing Creator, why must He be compelled to follow one particular way- especially a way that will later require Him to KILL and CURSE (see the 2nd point below) His only begotten son . Is that how an innocent, righteous and beloved son should be treated by his merciful and lovely Father ?

If it is an act of INJUSTICE for a merciful and lovely Father to FREELY forgive and save His OWN sinful children, then is it not a GREATER act of INJUSTICE for the same Father to kill and curse the ONLY righteous child among them ?
In fact, the whole story of Christianity can be summarized as follows;

"There is one powerful and merciful Father who killed and cursed His ONLY righteous child simply because He wanted to forgive and save His remaining sinful children: Yet how the remaining sinful children became sinful is NOT without His knowledge and power".

Before the advent of Christianity, can anybody in his right sense have just 1% belief in this story ?
But here we have today in our midst, men of knowledge and intellect and particularly professionals who have 100% belief in this story when the same story is repackaged and adorned with attire of religion.

2. Anyone that is hanged or crucified is accursed by God:
"Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, BEING MADE A CURSE for us: for it is written, CURSED IS EVERYONE that is hanged on a tree (Galatians 3:13)". See also Deuteronomy 21:23.

Yet it is totally against the divine principle for God to put His innocent, righteous and beloved son (or prophet) under His curse for any reason whatsoever.

Matthew 25:41says;
"Then he(Jesus) will also say to those on the LEFT HAND, Depart from me, you CURSED, into the everlasting fire, prepared for the DEVIL AND HIS ANGELS".

As you can see from the verse above: It is only those on the LEFT HAND who belong to the group of the "DEVIL AND HIS ANGELS " that are usually under the CURSE of God. It is impossible for an innocent, righteous and beloved prophet of God like Jesus to be under the SAME CURSE with the devil and his angels because he never did anything wrong or anything against the will of his Father. Therefore, Jesus must escape the crucifixion in order not to become an "accursed son of God" or "accursed prophet" or "accursed messiah".


3. Jesus was not sent to the entire world to die for our sins. He was sent ONLY to the lost sheep of the house of Israel (Matthew 15:24).
If Jesus was really sent to the entire world to die for both the Israelites and the Gentiles, then why did he have to tell that Canaanite woman that he was sent ONLY to the lost sheep of Israel (Matthew 15:21-24) ? Even if, according to the divine plan, Jesus and his apostles would first minister to the Israelites before the Gentiles, then Jesus' statement directed to that woman should have been: "IT IS NOT YET TIME FOR THE GENTILES" or something similar in meaning rather than “I WAS SENT ONLY TO THE LOST SHEEP OF THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL”. Why did Jesus have to say he was sent only to the Israelites if he was truly sent to the entire world to die on the cross for our sins ? This single fact alone is enough to prove that Jesus did not come to the world to die for our sins.


4. The sins of the sinners CANNOT be laid upon the righteous;

"The soul that sinned, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father; neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son. THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE RIGHTEOUS shall be upon him, and the WICKEDNESS OF THE WICKED shall be upon him" (Ezekiel 18:20).

Remember, this verse completely NULLIFY the main christian ideology which says : "the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon the righteous (i:e all the sin of sinners shall be laid upon Jesus Christ- 2 Corinthians 5:21, 1Peter 2:24, Hebrew 9:28)".

One important question need to be answered;
If the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him (as the verse above declare) and NOT upon the righteous (as the Christians use to claim), then how can the wicked be saved and not die as a result of his wickedness ?

Again, the book of Ezekiel answer this question;

"Son of man, say to the Israelites; this is what you are saying: our offenses and sins weigh us down, and we are wasting away because of them. How then can we live? Say to them: as surely as I live declares the sovereign Lord, I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that they turn from their ways and live. Turn! TURN FROM YOUR EVIL WAYS! Why will you die, people of Israel? Therefore, son of man say to your people if someone, one who is wicked, REPENTS, that person’s former wickedness will not bring condemnation And if I say to the wicked person, you will surely die, but they then TURN FROM THEIR SINS and do what is just and right…follow the decree that gives life, and do no evil --THAT PERSON WILL SURELY LIVE :THEY WILL NOT DIE. NONE OF THE SINS that person has committed will be remembered against them. They have done what is just and right; they will surely live (Ezekiel 33:10-16)".

Have you now seen that there is no need for the righteous to bear the sins of the sinners before the sinners can be saved and lived. The sinners can simply atone for their sins by REPENTANCE.

Jesus confirmed this truth when he said; I came not to call the righteous, but SINNERS TO REPENTANCE (Luke 5:32).
If Jesus has actually come to die for the sinners, he would have mentioned it in this verse since he was talking about the purpose of his coming WITH RESPECT TO THE SINNERS.

5. The death of Jesus on the cross is NOT necessary; Old testament believers were able to gain salvation without Jesus crucifixion.

God can decide to forgive our sins and earn our salvation through SINCERE REPENTANCE (see Ezekiel 33:10-16 quoted above) coupled with ANNUAL ANIMAL SACRIFICE ;

"He is to lay both hands on the head of the live GOAT and confess over it all the wickedness and rebellion of the Israelites —ALL THEIR SINS— and put them on the goat’s head. He shall send the GOAT away into the wilderness in the care of someone appointed for the task. The GOAT will carry on itself ALL THEIR SINS to a remote place; and the man shall release it in the wilderness....... .. Then, before the Lord, you will be CLEAN FROM ALL YOUR SINS (Leviticus 16:21-30)"

Here we read in the last verse ; “Then before the LORD, you will be CLEAN FROM ALL YOUR SINS” (Leviticus 16:30).
Yet the new Testament proclaimed that; " It is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to TAKE AWAY SINS (Hebrew 10:4)".
This is a flat contradiction. Is there any difference between "CLEAN FROM ALL SINS" and "TAKE AWAY SINS" ?
The only way to resolve this contradiction is when we assume that the phrase "TAKE AWAY SINS" in Hebrews 10:4 implies "complete removal of humanity sinful nature" and NOT referring to "cleanliness from already committed sins".
However, complete removal of humanity sinful nature is impossible as NOBODY can be completely FREE from committing sins (see 1 John:8-10).

Therefore, Hebrew 10:4 is a great lie deliberately fabricated by Paul to weaken the atonement of sins through animal sacrifice and then justify atonement of sins through Jesus crucifixion.
Therefore, if the main purpose of Jesus crucifixion is to achieve forgiveness and cleanliness from our sins, then the death of Jesus on the cross IS NOT NECESSARY; IT IS NOT THE ONLY WAY as claimed by the Christian scholars. God can decide to forgive our sins through sincere repentance or through animal sacrifice as He has done with the Old testament believers that lived and died before Jesus arrival.
Some Christians might want to argue that Jesus crucifixion make us entitle to many spiritual benefits that GO BEYOND forgiveness and cleanliness from our sins. But no matter how numerous the spiritual benefits that can be derived from Jesus crucifixion, there is no way for such benefits to be ACTUALIZED in the life of the Old Testament believers (like Abraham, Isaac, Jacob,Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah etc) because they have lived and died before Jesus arrival talk less of his supposed crucifixion. Yet these people manage to earn their salvation and reconciliation back to God (because there is no any biblical verse that says these Old Testament believers were in a certain state of condemnation after their death until the time of Jesus crucifixion). So if these old testament believers, who happened to be among the children of Adam, were able to gain their salvation without Jesus crucifixion, then there is alternative way also for the other children of Adam to gain their salvation WITHOUT Jesus crucifixion.

6. The act of crucifying one human being (Jesus ) to save the humanity from one problem or the other is nothing but human sacrifice. Yet God Almighty hates human sacrifice (see Deuteronomy 12:31 and Leviticus 18:21 ).

If, according to the Christians, God Almighty can carry out human sacrifice, then what is the difference between Christianity and traditional African religions which also support human sacrifice? Is there any difference between the two ? As Jesus was not willing to die (see the first reason above) so also the victims of the traditional African religions are not willing to die.

Paul declare as follows;
"I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain (Galatians 2:21)".

So according to Paul “human sacrifice” is the grace of God. Yet the same Christians, who agree that Paul is right in his claim, would continue to condemn traditional Africa religions for engaging in human sacrifice. Why the double standard since “human sacrifice” is “human sacrifice” ?

WAS JESUS REALLY CRUCIFIED ?
The Holy Quran replies and the choice is yours: “they KILL HIM NOT, NOR CRUCIFIED HIM ( Holy Quran 4:157)".

Now let us assume that Jesus crucifixion is true. Do you think Muslims are deserve to be condemned by God on the last day simply because they fail to believe in Jesus crucifixion despite all their five beliefs (cited at the beginning) concerning Jesus Christ?
To answer this question, let suppose the following conversation take place between God Almighty and the Muslims on the day of Judgement on the assumption that Jesus crucifixion is true

God: O you Muslims why did you refuse to believe in Jesus crucifixion ?

Muslims : O Lord our God and creator, Qur'an make us to believe in Jesus as Your mighty prophet who was born miraculously by virgin Mary. Qur'an also make us to believe in all the miracles that Jesus performed during his earthly ministry. Furthermore, Qur'an make us to believe in Jesus'ascension to heaven and that he is coming back toward the end of the world. So it is also written in the same Qur'an that Jesus was not crucified.

God; Yes, your Qur'an is true regarding all those things it mentioned concerning Jesus. But why are you so sure that your Qur'an did not get it wrong on the issue of Jesus crucifixion ?

Muslims: O Lord our God and Creator, the reason why we believe that Qur'an is also true on the issue of Jesus crucifixion is because Bible also declare that anyone that is crucified is accursed by God (Deuteronomy 21:23, Galatians 3:13) and it is is not possible for You as a God of love, mercy and justice to put your innocent and beloved prophet under Your curse. From the logical reasoning you gave to us as human being, we realized that only the devils and his followers are deserved to be under your curse: NOT your innocent, righteous and beloved prophet like Jesus Christ, who never did anything against Your Will. You are naturally known to always BLESS Your innocent, righteous and beloved prophets and never to CURSE any one of them.

Please do you think God Almighty can still have an evidence against the Muslims concerning the issue of Jesus crucifixion base on this reasonable reply ?
Consequently, even if Jesus crucifixion is true, Muslims CANNOT BE CONDEMNED by God for not believing in it; they CANNOT BE PERISHED. Yet Paul wrote in his epistle:

"the message of the cross ( i:e Jesus crucifixion) is foolishness to those who are PERISHING (1st Corinthians 1:18)".

See how Paul got it wrong!

Jesus crucifixion is one of the FOUNDATIONAL PILLARS of the present day Christianity . You will notice that the symbol of "CROSS" used to represent Christianity stands for Jesus crucifixion. In other words, if there is no Jesus crucifixion, then there is no Christianity.

Hence, if the ONLY true faith from God is Christianity, then being one of the foundational pillars of Christianity, NOBODY MUST HAVE A STRONG AND REASONABLE EXCUSE for not believing in Jesus crucifixion . However, as we have shown above, Muslims have a strong and reasonable excuse for not believing in Jesus crucifixion. Therefore, the ONLY true faith from God is NOT Christianity. And if the ONLY true faith from God is not Christianity, then Christianity must be a FALSE faith. Being a false faith, Jesus Christ has nothing to do with Christianity.

Therefore, in order not to neglect Jesus completely, all Christians must embrace Islam. This is because apart from Christianity, Islam is the only faith on earth that make believing in Jesus and all other biblical prophets as one of the basic and most fundamental article of its faith.

5. The death of Jesus on the cross is NOT neccessary:

God can decide to forgive our sins and earn our salvation through SINCERE REPENTANCE (see Ezekiel 33:10-16 quoted above) coupled with ANNUAL ANIMAL SACRIFICE ;

"He is to lay both hands on the head of the live GOAT and confess over it all the wickedness and rebellion of the Israelites—ALL THEIR SINS—and put them on the goat’s head. He shall send the GOAT away into the wilderness in the care of someone appointed for the task. The GOAT will carry on itself ALL THEIR SINS to a remote place; and the man shall release it in the wilderness....... .. Then, before the Lord, you will be CLEAN FROM ALL YOUR SINS (Leviticus 16:21-30)"


Here we read in the last verse ; “Then before the LORD, you will be CLEAN FROM ALL YOUR SINS” (Leviticus 16:30).

Yet the new Testament proclaimed that; " It is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to TAKE AWAY SINS (Hebrew 10:4)".

WAS JESUS REALLY CRUCIFIED ?

The Holy Quran replies and the choice is yours: “He (Jesus) was neither killed nor crucified” (Holy Quran 4:157).

1. Muslims believe in Jesus as a mighty prophet of God (Qur'an 19:30).

2. Muslims believe in Jesus miraculous birth(Qur'an 21:91)

3. Muslims believe in all the miracles Jesus performed during his earthly ministry (Qur'an 5:110)

4. Muslims believe in Jesus ascension to heaven (Qur'an 4:158)

5. Muslims believe in Jesus 2nd coming toward the end of the world.(Qur'an 43:57-61)

Now let us assume that Jesus crucifixion is true.
Do you think Muslims are deserve to be condemned by God on the last day simply because they fail to believe in Jesus crucifixion despite all those five beliefs they have concerning Jesus Christ ?

To answer this question, let suppose the following conversation take place between God Almighty and the Muslims on the day of Judgement on the assumption that Jesus crucifixion is true

However, as we have shown above, Muslims have a strong and reasonable excuse for not believing in Jesus crucifixion. Therefore, the ONLY true faith from God is NOT Christianity. Hence, Christianity must be a FALSE faith because Muslims have a strong and reasonable excuse to tender before God for not believing in Jesus crucifixion. Yet crucifixion of Jesus is one of the most important PILLARS of Christianity; Without it there is no Christianity.

Six strong biblical reasons why Jesus must escape crucifixion
1. Jesus prayed to God in the garden of Gethsemane in THREE different consecutive times asking for the "cup (i:e the crucifixion)" to be taken away from him;


“My Father, if it is possible, MAY THIS CUP BE TAKEN AWAY FROM ME. Yet not as I will, but as you will" (see Matthew 26:36-44)".


Jesus said; "IF IT IS POSSIBLE". YET EVERYTHING, THAT IS NOT UNREASONABLE, IS POSSIBLE FOR GOD . And it is not unreasonable for God to save Jesus Christ from being crucified by his enemy.

Therefore, if God already knew that he would not answer this Jesus' prayer, then God must have kept the tongue of Jesus from using the phrase "IF IT IS POSSIBLE" because everything that is not unreasonable is possible for God.

Since God deliberately allowed Jesus to use the Phrase "IF IT IS POSSIBLE" in his prayer for the crucifixion to be taken away from him, then God must have answered Jesus prayer and then he must have escaped the crucifixion because everything that is reasonable is possible for God.

Why would God not answer his prayer when Jesus prayed so earnestly to the extent that the SWEAT of Jesus was like DROPS OF BLOOD falling down to the ground (Luke 22:44). Remember, the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man ( let alone a righteous and beloved prophet of God like Jesus) avails much (James 5:16).

However, according to the Christian scholars, God still allowed Jesus to be crucified by his enemy DESPITE ALL HIS BLOOD-SWEATING PRAYER because there is NO OTHER WAY for God to save the children of Adam from eternal damnation except through Jesus crucifixion. Does this submission make any sense to you? THERE IS NO OTHER WAY for God Almighty ? Honestly, this is one of the greatest blasphemy against God and insult to the precious intelligence of man!
If God is All-powerful and All-knowing Creator, why must He be compelled to follow one particular way- especially a way that will later require Him to KILL and CURSE (see the 2nd point below) His only begotten son . Is that how an innocent, righteous and beloved son should be treated by his merciful and lovely Father ?

If it is an act of INJUSTICE for a merciful and lovely Father to FREELY forgive and save His OWN sinful children, then is it not a GREATER act of INJUSTICE for the same Father to kill and curse the ONLY righteous child among them ?

Why did Jesus have to say such a statement if he was truly sent to the entire world to die on the cross for our sins ?

4. The sins of the sinners CANNOT be laid upon the righteous;

"The soul that sinned, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father; neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son. THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE RIGHTEOUS shall be upon him, and the WICKEDNESS OF THE WICKED shall be upon him" (Ezekiel 18:20).

Remember, this verse completely NULLIFY the main christian ideology which says : "the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon the righteous (i:e all the sin of sinners shall be laid upon Jesus Christ- 2 Corinthians 5:21, 1Peter 2:24, Hebrew 9:28)".


One important question need to be answered;
If the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him(as the verse above declare) and NOT upon the righteous (as the Christians use to claim), then how can the wicked be saved and not die as a result of his wickedness ?

Again, the book of Ezekiel answer this question;


"Son of man, say to the Israelites; this is what you are saying: our offenses and sins weigh us down, and we are wasting away because of them. How then can we live? Say to them: as surely as I live declares the sovereign Lord, I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that they turn from their ways and live. Turn! TURN FROM YOUR EVIL WAYS!

Therefore, son of man say to your people… if someone, one who is wicked, REPENTS, that person’s former wickedness will not bring condemnation… And if I say to the wicked person, you will surely die, but they then TURN FROM THEIR SINS and do what is just and right…follow the decree that gives life, and do no evil--THAT PERSON WILL SURELY LIVE :THEY WILL NOT DIE. NONE OF THE SINS that person has committed will be remembered against them.They have done what is just and right; they will surely live (Ezekiel 33:10-16)".


Have you now seen that there is no need for the righteous to bear the sins of the sinners before the sinners can be saved and lived. The sinners can simply atone for their sins by REPENTANCE.

Jesus confirmed this truth when he said; I came not to call the righteous, but SINNERS TO REPENTANCE (Luke 5:32).

If Jesus has actually come to die for the sinners, he would have mentioned it in this verse since he was talking about the purpose of his coming WITH RESPECT TO THE SINNERS.
