it means your op was addressed in the past. Hence, it is recycled. Help yourself and stop whining for attention
Whyning for attention? Do you view every thread on nairaland? I really don't know why I am replying you because you obviously have nothing to say regarding the questions. Ask me again and again about Jesus and I will always reply you. Because that is my duty. I won't send you to go and read a 25 page comment. Please don't mention me if you don't have answers. I can understand if you are confused too.

That's why no one takes you serious. Since you already made up your mind, who cares what you believe!

You are very funny man. There is no debate to what I said there. I have a quaran on my phone I can send u screen grabs of these passages. If you can justify them, then fine. Nothing stops me from being a Muslim if I see reason with your justification. I am a Christian but not a blind one, hense, my search for the truth.

Pls when next you want to write, spare us the trash of having to read PEACE BE UNTO Him. It really makes reading and comprehension difficult. I even wonder why you have to keep praying for peace to be with the men you claim lived a holy life. Or are they in torment somewhere?

So far, you haven't answered the OP and its questions. How can you say the Quran is God's word? A book that inspired terrorists, rapist and bloodthirsty herdsmen is what you call the true words of God which you claim is above the by Bible?

And why do you keep contradicting yourself? You claim that there is nothing in the Quran and sunnah of Mohammad that condemns the early Christians for believing in what they believed in. This means that the message of the Quran came to condemn whoever continues to believe in that same concept. I would have believed you had it been that Mohammed came with the same message of Christ and also came as a Christian. No, he did not. So, what gives him the right to come and rubbish what existed centuries before his father was born? He simply came to preach a different message contrary to what Christ preached cos he was a murderer and a lying rapist. Even John the Baptist knew there wasn't going to be another man like Christ, that was why he has to ask to be sure. Yahshua answered him by saying that since his miracles are things that have never been experienced before, then he is the one to come after which no other will come, definitely not a terrorist, murderer, plagiarist, pedophile, liar and a Christian killer.

Mathew 11:2-6

2 And when John had heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent two of[a]his disciples
3 and said to Him, “Are Youthe Coming One, or do welook for another?”
4 Jesus answered and said to them,“Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:
5 Theblind see andthelame walk;thelepers are cleansed andthedeaf hear;thedead are raised up andthepoor have the gospel preached to them.
6 And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me.”

Pls, answer the OP questions one after the other. Let me invite my soon to be Christians.

It's funny how they run away from questions like this and then on Friday all I see on nairaland is how the Quaran is the greatest book ever made and is God's word. God's word is the same yesterday, today and for ever. That is why Jesus teachings and that of the early apostles can stay relevant even till date. Look at the quaran filled with instructions to murder, child marriage and other insane that cannot stand the test of time. Thank God I'm a Christian.

Medknight:
Praise be to Allah
There is nothing in the Holy Qur’an or in the Prophet’s Sunnah to condemn the early Christians (i.e., before the sending of our Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)) as disbelievers because of their belief that the Messiah (peace be upon him) was killed and crucified. Rather Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, condemns them as disbelievers because they regarded the Messiah as a god, and because they regarded divinity as being three: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

There is nothing in the Holy Qur’an that says “surely they have disbelieved who say that the Messiah was killed and crucified”!

Hence we agree with your view that it is natural – as you say – that the Christians, by whom we mean the early Christians, before the coming of our Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) would believe in the crucifixion and the killing of ‘Eesa (peace be upon him). But after the sending of the Messenger (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and the revelation of the Qur’an, and the definitive denial of the killing and crucifixion of the Messiah, whoever believes in the killing and crucifixion of the Messiah after that is a disbeliever, because he has rejected what Qur’an says, which definitive evidence and miracles have proven is the true word of Allah and not the words of any human being.

What they quote as evidence of reports about the killing and crucifixion of the Messiah is an illusion, because there are no reliable and widely reported accounts concerning that. Watch this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHF5evfPwmc
Please you have not addressed the questions I raised.

Paul. sorry for delving in to the matter, I don't know, I ain't that knowledgeable, shouldn't have spoken based on my little knowledge, but evidence has been given by scholars, you can check Google
So paul wrote the acts of the apostles? Paul fabricated the lie that the deciples prayed in the name of Jesus? Paul also single handedly destroyed Allah's true message?

The disciples were not the constructors of the lie, the lie was told by someone else, so the disciples continued the worship of God alone and not Jesus, now why did someone decide to lie? Because the greatest unforgivable sin is ascribing partners with the one God, so people go to extreme lengths to mislead people thanks to satan.
Even in Islam people construct lies against the prophet, that's why we have weak hadith (written actions or sayings of the prophet), just so they could mislead people, and there are those who study Ahadith to tell which is a weak one or authentic
Please who constructed this lie? Thanks for your answer anyway. Who is this person that his lie would overshadow the "truth" of Jesus closest followers?
Christianity EtcDid Allah Help The Spread Of Christianity? by ilynem(op): 11:16am On Jan 15, 2017
Before I start, I want to say I am a Christian. And also I want to plead that this thread is not intended to spread vile or religious war between nairalanders as I just want a sincere and honest answer from our Muslim brothers and sisters.
I have the Quaran in my phone because I am a man who loves to search for the truth. So in Surah Chapter 4, it was stated that Jesus didn't die, instead it was made to look like he did and Allah took him. So Allah made it to look like he was killed but he wasn't really killed. Now looking at this, it is just a simple statement but the controversy lies with Jesus followers. Now Jesus followers went about spreading the news of His death and resurrection and I can only raise two conclusions from this.
1. Jesus followers knew he didn't die and decided to lie to that world that he did.
2. Jesus followers also believed he died and resurrected which means Allah also made them believe he died on the cross.
Now, number one is unlikely, because these followers were tortured and killed for their beliefs and not one of them decided to change his story. I wouldn't die for a lie and what did they stand to gain by lying? Liars make bad martyrs.
So this leaves us with option 2 which means Allah also made them believe Jesus died. And then they went around spreading a false message which they believed all because of Allah himself. So Allah's actions actually started the spread of the biggest belief system in the world. And He had to wait 600 years to correct this erroneous message through the prophet Muhammad.
This is not the only conclusion to that verse. This also means that Jesus in Islam was a monumental failure. What did he actually accomplish? His virgin birth, miracles and all was for nothing because his closest followers went around spreading a false message. This also questions Jesus judgement! He can form a bird from clay and make it come alive but can't choose followers to spread the right message?
Like I said, I don't intend to start any religious war, I just want a perfect explanation. Thank you.

Jesus never conformed to the views of the Jews.
If he truly believed in gender equality he would've firmly supported it. Same thing with slavery, Jesus would have spoke vehemently against it, if he didn't support it.
And I gave you the example of Mary Magdalene. And how much importance Jesus placed on her. As for slavery, Jesus never condoned it and maybe because the Jews we're like slaves to that Romans, he never spoke against it. This might have actually started a kind of Jewish revolution and that was not why JESUS was on earth

Lennycool:
This is weak, he was in a roman controlled territory, both Romans and Jews see nothing wrong with slavery, so of course he was surrounded by slaves, not to mention all the travels he did you want to tell me he didn't meet one slave. Bull. Jesus didn't speak cause he had nothing against it.


You're missing the point, he spoke on lust even when it was just imagination, yet he didn't say a thing on slavery.
Owning another human being forever and having premarital sex, which is worse?


I assure you they did not misunderstand the bible, america was so deeply christian it even banned alcohol and gambling. This people followed the Bible to the latter. The bible saw slavery as cool so did they.


When he said after healing
"Go and sin no more"
Instead of keep good personal hygiene.

And also the places where he cured convulsing people by casting out demons.



Twelve male disciple doesn't sound like misogyny to you?
When he spoke of divorce he gave the man permission only in the case of adultery on the part of his wife.
And what right did he give to the woman?
Nothing.
No exception, none whatsoever. Not even on cases of violence or adultery, the woman was the husband's property to him.

Yes if everyone followed Jesus's teachings their would be less suffering.
But their would be more deaths due to disease, their would be massive gender inequality and there would still be slavery.
Jesus is not that much of a good moral guide.
I do like you because you are not one of those hot headed atheists who throw curse words up and down. Now why would there be slavery? When we we're told to love our neighbors? Why would I keep you as a slave if I loved you? Jesus might have never spoken against it doesn't mean he is in support of it. Jesus himself was like a slave to the Romans. The Jews thought the Messiah would actually free them from the Romans. So I don't think he would have supported slavery. As for casting out demons from a convulsing person, I think my Bible made pretty clear that person was possessed by demons. And yes! He had 12 male deciples and I have to say that argument is flawed. In the holding days, the Jews naturally gave more rights to men and I don't think anyone would want to listen to a woman speak to them. Not his fault. But again I point you to Mary Magdalene and her role in the life of Jesus. You need to see the importance Jesus placed on Mary. And what he said about her after she watched his feet with her tears which even shocked the traditional Jews cuz they were not used to giving a woman such importance. And your "go and sin no more" argument doesn't mean Jesus said sin was caused by sin. Even when he didn't heal people He told them to sin no more. My last point. Love your neighbor as you love yourself. You can't love your neighbor if you don't love yourself. And loving yourself means taking care of your self and your hygiene.

Ahh but that isn't the only thing Jesus taught now is it?
He taught people to love one another, yet never spoke against slavery, while he had free time to diss on fornication. The American south was filled with slave owning christians because of this.

Jesus also taught that sickness and diseases were caused by sin, a belief most christian sect still hold near.
Jesus was also a misogynist.

So with jesus its a matter of what he spoke and didn't speak on.
Both his teachings and silence give rise to dangerous belief systems.
1. Never spoke against slavery. Maybe it us because he wasn't faced with that situation. And where he grew up, I doubt there were slaves.
2. Free time to diss on fornication? Yet he saved a harlot from being stoned to death.
3. The American south was filled with slave owning Christians? Here u are blaming the actions of people who misunderstood the Bible on the full Christian race.
4. Jesus thought that sickness was caused by sin? Really? Please show me a verse that supports this claim.
6. Jesus a misogynist? That's just laughable. Judging by the way he defended the "sinful" Mary Magdalene.
Finally, when he was asked what the greatest commandment was, he said love thy God , love your neighbor as your self. Do you know if every human in the world followed this commandments, there would be world peace? No hunger, no suffering, no war, nothing. This is the core of Christianity and that is where u and many Christians get it wrong.

Lol, Jesus condemned the manner in which it was paid, because much emphasis was laid on it just like the present church is doing now, instead of other things, like this pastors laying emphasis on justice, mercy and faith.

When you read through that chapter, his annoyance towards it shows he was not a fan of it.
You don't get it. Jesus condemned the neglect of other charitable acts and not the payment of tithe. He was trying to say paying tithe alone is not enough. That doesn't mean you should condemn tithe paying. What you should condemn is the pastors neglect of other charitable acts.

In nigeria christians chase children into the streets because they think they are witches, should I respect their beliefs?

No ones irrational belief is beyond scrutiny.
Nothing is sacred and all must be challenged.

Following the actions of "Nigerian Christians" isn't Christianity. Following Christ is Christianity. If u can't fault Jesus teaches, you can't fault Christianity. How is loving your God and loving your neighbor as yourself bad for the society?

In that verse Jesus even condemned the manner in which tithe was favoured justice, mercy and faith even likening it to one cleaning the outside of th dish while the inside is dirty.
Exactly. Jesus condemned the manner it was paid but never said it was wrong to pay it. Two different things.

Really?

Ok! So you, the light and the salt of the world should please teach us about your faulty faith.

Even when I was a Christian, I stopped praying when I could no longer deceive myself any longer. It was all obvious to me that I was talking to myself and that no any sky daddy up there was busy processing and working on my petitions.

You people will pray against a problem and at the end of the day, you will as well become the pioneer of the solution "the administrator of your own success " and at the end, you will climb that your stupid alter in your nonsensical gathering (church) and will testify how God (in place of your own ability and initiative) provided the solution miraculously.

You know...... Apart from being cajoled by people, the day you can no longer deceive yourself is the day the burning sensation, guts and the curiosity to question your religious belief begins and to as well decline and detach them if they are found guilty of been delusional.

Bill Gates mother once questioned him that what was he doing, but the little kid replied "Mum, I am thinking".

Today, the product of his thought is apparently evident to the world. It cannot be deny.

millions of Christians are praying and a little kid was busy thinking. Now, the whole world are benefitting from his thoughts while your prayers constitute nothing but nuisance to the community.

Imagine that he was praying, what would have been the fate of his destiny and that of the entire human racehuh

Prayer to me is nothing but a reflection and an expression of a mind that is too lazy to think, plan and take accurate judgement.

It is nothing but the religious way of shifting responsibility and wishfully hoping for an unknown hand to anticipate it and deliver a positive results.

I will rather think than to waste my lifetime praying to an in-existing imaginary sky brother.

If not that the Christians can't think, 3 young dudes were executed on the cross (same day), and one out of smartness, greediness, and an eternal lust for fame and abiding popularity nominated himself as the saviour of mankind.

Gush...
If u want to learn, stop using abusive words. It sounds like you are angry at God. How can u be angry at someone who doesn't exist? When you are ready to learn, let me know

So after "getting Jesus",what so I use that knowledge for? You only care about spiritual growth and what happens to your physical and financial? This is the mistake Christians have been making for a long time. We can't affect the world by hiding inside the church. A church should preach Jesus! Yes! But at the same time, a church should be able to inspire us to be better people in our various fields. If you are the richest man in Africa, when u talk about Jesus, people will listen to u way more than someone who can't even feed himself
