lexiconkabir:
did u read the continuation of my thread of where i talked about the hadiths u just used?? if no then go nd check again, mind u research again and know that david wood invented the lie "muslim and paganism"
you are not making sense, if the so called David wood invented a lies, you should be able to clear it , right? The question is , how is pagan ritual becomes a 'SYMBOL OF ALLAH?' The hadith clearly say the pagan has been doing it before islam came.

op, i hope u saw may thread answering ur thread? if not, click on it now. www.nairaland.com/2475175/answers-thread-muslims-clear-these concerning ur current thread, permit to say u copied and pasted cuz again the person u copied and pasted from translated the verses wrongly!!! but this time i would let u find out the true meanings urself, and oh yes dont you know that God has the power to do all things? he is the all-knower, the pardoner, the merciful, the sustainer, and so on. he has the power to make u believe and vice versa, not that he will lead u astray! but your deeds will lead u astray and who put disbelieve in mens heart? shaytan(satan). in nutshell, dont copy and paste, do the research ur self, i have a question 4 my christian friends, do u believe in one God as it is in the first commandment? if yes which God do u believe in?
did you say David wood invented the idea "islam has root in paganism?". Go and read the hadith once again , they(the muslims) dislike the ritual, why ? Because prior to their conversion to islam, they performed the same ritual, that why they dislike it , but muhammed had to intervene with a new revelation, if Abraham performed this ritual as muslims claim, the people during muhammed time will NEVER dislike it in the first place. So the question, how is this same ritual become the symbol of Allah ?

that is the point, you will never agree, killing is good even if they legalised it because God put in you a God's consciousness.

The reason was because he had already promised them the land.

4"On this day in the month of Abib, you are about to go forth. 5"It shall be when the LORD brings you to the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, which He swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall observe this rite in this month. Exodus 13:4-5.
Deuteronomy 9:5
is NOT FOR YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS OR FOR THE UPRIGHTNESS OF YOUR HEART that you are going to possess their land,
but it is because of the wickedness of
these nations that the LORD your God
is driving them out before you, in
order to confirm the oath which the
LORD swore to your fathers, to
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

One thing you should know is this , the majority of this people worship idols and the children of isreal had just began as a nation, soo,this people has the chance to hear God word and repent but there evil continue the more,
Okay, how "wicked" could those people
have been? How about killing their own
sons and daughters by burning them in
sacrifices to their gods:

Deuteronomy 12:31
"You shall not behave thus toward the
LORD your God, for every abominable
act which the LORD hates they have
done for their gods; for they even
burn their sons and daughters in the
fire to their gods.

Maybe atheists believe that killing your children is not all bad. After all, killing viable pre-born babies is legal in this country (it's called a choice, a.k.a. abortion). For these reasons (and others5), God ordered the destruction of
the peoples whom the Israelites
dispossessed.

When your God and his prophets organized the killing of others in the bible because he wanted to take over their land that was flowing with milk and give it to his chosen people, honey did you call the action bad?
what was the reason for this killing ?go back and read the story again, beginning from the exedus era.

Common u can do much more better dan dat,who need religion to know its not good to kill?
nonsense!!! The statement 'Killing innocent people is wrong' doesn't mean 'I don't like killing
innocent people. If the society say killing is Good, will you called its bad ? In the nazi camp, when the Jews population are on the risen, the nazi legalised killing of the Jews , will you called this law bad ?

Buhahaha , the KJV is now a condemned translation since it doesnt favour you . Lols . Its good that you guys are condemning your own bible .

Back to the matter :

Since the greek word " pneuma" translated spirit is NEUTER , is it gramatically proper to attach a masculine pronoun "HIMself" to somethin NEUTER ? GRAMATICAL BLUNDER
NO!!! You are condemning your self, I see know different between Nigeria atheists and a satanist, keep it up, one thing for sure, we will all die, death can come anytime soon , within a second, and when it happened, this mystery that is troubling you day and night, making you to look for fault in God's word, its will all come to an end, I cannot take the risk you are taking, disbelief in God, then what next ? Enjoy life, once again, keep it up.

Bible say remember your creator in the days of your youth because when old age come and trouble come , then you will say , I found no pleasure in them anymore, then you will want to seek for God? Don't die, stay alive.

What rubish are u blabbing ?
The christian god the holyspirit is a person , yet your god is denote with " It" grin , am sure u didnt do english at school , if you do you will know " ITSELF" is used for a thing .
have you check other translations before you make your conclusion? Most bible translations used "HIMSELF"

New International Version
In the same way, the Spirit helps us in
our weakness. We do not know what we
ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself
intercedes for us through wordless
groans.
Romans 8:26
New Living Translation
And the Holy Spirit helps us in our
weakness. For example, we don't know
what God wants us to pray for. But the
Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings
that cannot be expressed in words.

English Standard Version
Likewise the Spirit helps us in our
weakness. For we do not know what to
pray for as we ought, but the Spirit
himself intercedes for us with groanings
too deep for words.

New American Standard Bible
In the same way the Spirit also helps our
weakness; for we do not know how to
pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself
intercedes for us with groanings too
deep for words;

King James Bible
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our
infirmities: for we know not what we
should pray for as we ought: but the
Spirit itself maketh intercession for us
with groanings which cannot be uttered.

The king James was translated 400 years ago during the England medieval period
Use of this translation is problematic these days, since it uses an archaic version of modern English,which doesn't necessarily mean the same things today as when it was translated over 400 years ago. In addition, the KJV was produced using a limited number of
medieval manuscripts that did not
represent the earliest Alexandrian set of
manuscripts.

Before I proceed , am sure you did english at school . "it" and "itself" is used to denote a thing or an animal . So Christians should tell me where their God-the-Holyspirit belong !

Have you seen it ? U dont , look at the bolded color part again . Your bible infact the authorised version said it ! do you now admit that your god is a thing ?
soo, what is your points ? Do you think the holy spirit is an active forced ? The holy spirit is a person.

Demmzy15:
It doesn't matter whether it was divinely commanded to Hagar, Hagar did it and God asked Muslims to do it as a commemoration of sacrifice by Hagar. Not that she was bowing to some idol, but running between two mountains looking for water.

Just like in Christian pilgrimage, many activities are done in which have no divinely proves. Safa and Marwah was legislated to the Muslims.
lies, the hadith say and I quote:

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 6, Book 60,
Number 23:
... “We used to consider
(i.e. going around) them a custom
of the Pre-Islamic period of
Ignorance, SO WHEN ISLAM CAME, we
gave up going around them..

They have been performing safa between marwa and tawaf long BEFORE islam came,the people know ,this ritual belongs to the pagan, so they are confused , here is muhammed answer:

Then Allah revealed, ‘Verily, Safa and
Marwa (i.e. two mountains at
Mecca) ARE AMONG THE SYMBOL OF ALLAH . So it is not harmful of those who perform the Hajj of the House (of Allah) or perform the Umra to
ambulate (Tawaf) between them.’” ( Surah 2:158) [End of Quote]


Surah 2:158: “Lo! (the mountains) As-
Safa and Al-Marwah are among the
indications of Allah. It is therefore no
sin for him who is on pilgrimage to
the House (of Allah) or visiteth it, to
go around them ( as the pagan
custom is).” (Pickthall)

The only explanation you need to do is " how is this very same ritual which the pagan do become a symbol of Allah ?

the quran say those who followed Jesus will be save:

Surah 3:55: “Behold! Allah said: ‘O
Jesus! I will take thee and raise thee
to Myself and clear thee of the
falsehood of those who blaspheme; I
will make those who FOLLOWING THEE
SUPERIOR TO THOSE WHO DISBELIEVE until the Day of Resurrection.” (Yusuf Ali)

And the quran say those who followed muhammed is in HELL including muhammed:

Surah 19:71: “It is the inevitable
decree of your Lord that every one of
you will be taken to HELL.”

And the very next verse tells us:

Surah 19:72: “Then (Thumma) We
shall rescue those who kept from evil,
and leave the evil-doers crouching
there.” (Pickthall)


The above statement in the Qur’an
reveals the superiority of those who
follow Jesus Christ. Those who follow
Jesus are Christians. Of course, this does
not apply to those who are Christians in
name only but to those who are his true
faithful followers. These are the ones
who will be exalted. They are exalted,
not because of any personal superiority
on their part but on account of truly
submitting to the teachings of Christ as it is revealed in the Holy Bible.

According to the above Qur’anic verse,
Christians will be “exalted” or made
“superior” until the Day of Resurrection. The Day of Resurrection or Qiyamah refers to the “time of the end.”

For Christians to be exalted until the
time of the end, true Christianity must be present in this world until the “time of the end.”

For true Christianity to be present in this world until the time of the end, true
Christians must remain in this world until the “time of the end.”

For true Christians to remain in this
world until the time of the end, they
must have a righteous standing with God until the “time of the end.”

For them to have a righteous standing
with God until the time of the end, they
must be guided righteously until the
“time of the end.”

For them to be guided righteously until
the time of the end, the Holy Book in
their possession must remain true until
the “time of the end.”

For the Qur’an to testify that the
followers of Jesus Christ will be made
“superior to those who disbelieve until
the Day of Resurrection,” the above
detailed stages regarding the favorable
standing of Christians must be
accomplished precisely. And this would
vitally include the integrity of the Bible
which is in their possession.

Bros Rilwayne001 wallahi this guy is sooo dumb, he created threads about this nonsense and he was refuted to the core. https://www.nairaland.com/2408973/explanation-wanted

Even on plainbibletruth thread, he asked about the Kaaba and the black Stone and it was explained thoroughly for this lying hypocrite https://www.nairaland.com/2410291/which-son-did-god-ask/3

Malvisguy212 you made a point about Moses destroying the idols himself, didn't the Prophet Muhammad destroy the idols in the Kaaba too? Guy you're so dumb!!
you guys are soo deluded, did Moses sanctioned pagan worship like muhammed did ? Moses destroyed the golden calf but muhammed , when he destroyed the idols in the kabba, he did not destroyed the BLACK STONE.

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 8,
Number 392:
Narrated Bara’ bin ‘Azib: Allah’s
Apostle prayed facing Baitul-
Maqdis for sixteen or seventeen
months but he loved to face the
Ka’ba (at Mecca) so Allah revealed:
“Verily, We have seen the turning of
your face to the heaven!” ( Surah 2 Al-
Baqarah 144) So the Prophet faced
the Ka’ba and the fools amongst the
people namely “the Jews” said,
“What has turned them from their
Qibla (Bait-ul-Maqdis) which they
formerly observed” (Allah revealed):
“Say: ‘To Allah belongs the East and
the West. He guides whom he will to a
straight path’.” ( Surah 2 Al-Baqarah
142).
Why did Muhammad express a desire to pray facing the Ka’ba while it remained a pagan shrine? At the time when Surah 2:144 was revealed to change the Qiblah from Jerusalem to Mecca,the Ka’ba was still a pagan shrine housing 360 pagan idols.Why would Allah permit his Prophet to bow towards the Ka’ba while it was still polluted with 360 pagan idols? The command given in the Qur’an to change the Qiblah predates by years the conquest of Mecca. Those idols were destroyed only after the conquest of Mecca. Thus, during all those intervening years, between the time the Qiblah was changed towards the Ka’ba and the
conquest of Mecca, whenever Muhammad faced the Ka’ba to pray, the
Ka’ba remained a shrine of idol worship.

This is not an insignificant matter in
terms of worship. Why was Muhammad
not commanded to wait until the removal of those idols? Why did Allah submit to Muhammad’s desire and as a result make it a requirement for the early Muslims to bow towards the direction of the pagan idols, whenever they approach him in prayer during all those intervening years? Did not Allah say, “To Allah belongs the East and the West”? Why, then must the prayers of the Muslims be directed towards the pagan shrine in order to reach the ears of Allah? Notice the commanding tone of Allah in Surah 2:144:

“Wherever ye are, turn your faces in
that direction.”

The following Hadith clearly shows that
the idols were destroyed only after the
conquest of Mecca which took place
several years later after the Qiblah was
changed towards the Ka’ba.

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 5, Book 59,
Number 583:
Narrated By Abdullah: When the
Prophet entered Mecca on the day of
the Conquest, there were 360 idols
around the Ka’ba.

Now we will consider another serious
problem in Islam.

Surah 2:125: “And when WE MADE THE
HOUSE (at Mecca) a resort for
mankind and sanctuary, (saying):
Take as your place of worship the
place where Abraham stood (to pray).
And We imposed a duty upon
Abraham and Ishmael, (saying):
PURIFY MY HOUSE My for those who go
around and those who meditate
therein and those who bow down and
prostrate themselves (in worship)
.” (Pickthall)

According to Islam, Allah is said to have
built the Ka’ba centuries before the time
of Judaism and Christianity. It was
supposedly restructured later by
Abraham and Ishmael. The Ka’ba also
known as “Baitullah” means “House of
Allah.” Now, how did the “House of
Allah” which was “made by Allah”
become a pagan temple housing 360
pagan idols? How can a House of God
become a pagan Temple of Idols? Why
did Allah allow this to occur to his place
of worship? If the Ka’ba was the original
“House of Allah” as the Qur’an asserts,
then there is absolutely no logical or
theological reason as to why Muhammad directed the first Qiblah towards Jerusalem – unless he believed that it was holier than the Ka’ba.

Muhammad destroyed the rest of the
idols at the conquest of Mecca but left
the preeminent idol of the Ka’ba – the
Black Stone – untouched. Why? It was
simply due to deep-rooted
subconsciousness brought on by years of submission to stone worship. He not only had to leave the Black Stone unharmed to represent Islam but he also kissed it to show his affection for the pagan stone.

The Black Stone that was sacred to the
pagans became sacred to the Muslims
and is now revered by them. The kiss
that the pious Muslim pilgrims bestow on the Black Stone is a survival of the old pagan practice, which was a form of
stone worship in Arabia. While Christians can clearly see this as absolute idolatry, Islam is blind to this abomination. Even the Egyptian writer, Muhammad Husayn Haykal, who relies heavily on the works of Ibn Hisham, admitted in his book, The Life of Muhammad (p. 30):

In fact, the Arabs venerated these
stones so much that not only did
they worship the black stone in the
Ka’bah, but also they would take
one of the stones of the Ka’bah as a
holy object in their travels, praying
to it and asking it to bless every
move they made.

The old testament and new testament are twp different documents for 2 different religion and 2 different purposes. the christain only added the old testament to the new so that they could sell jesus to the world..the jews know jesus is not the messiah. He did not fulfill any of the prophesy..There are contradiction in the ol testament because they are different Gods and different time in history..all looking for attention..some are benevolent others are not..it will be foolish for any body to think it is the story of one god...Enki, Enlil, Mardock,Inana...etc..
were do you get this idea from ? God in the old testament is different from the new testament ?

Jesus is the fulfilment of God plan of salvation, but the Jews are expecting a physical leader who will fight war and win battle just as the kings in the old testament did , as Jesus entry into Jerusalem, the people shout "hossana" meaning "save us" but the reaction of Jesus "he wept" for them. Read this thread https://www.nairaland.com/2470199/how-passover-reveals-jesus-christ

God in the old testament and new testament IS ONE ,in the old testament we see a God who cannot tolerate sin , A God who can go to any lent in disciplines his children because of sin, God love required God justice but in the new testament we see THE SAME GOD who wreath has been satisfied, after the fulfilment of his promise , His wreath towards sin was satisfied.let me give you an example

If you anger you dad and he punished you , but most of the time you keep on disobeying his command, you cannot do away with this sin , but because fatherly love is unconditional, your dad provide a way for reconciliation, how you can do away with this sinful habit. Maby when you do more wrong instead of him to punished you as usual, instead he gave you the second chance to repent,which is GRACE. Would you say your father in his formally character is different from the ever loving and forgiven character ? NO!!!
^^^THAT HOW THE GOD IN THE OLD TESTAMENT AND NEW IS. ONE AND THE SAME GOD.

Are you a christian? Go and do bible study on this verse:
Heb 2:17 For this reason he had to be
made like them, a fully human in every
way, in order that he might become a
merciful and faithful high priest in
service to God, and that he might make
atonement for the sins of the people.”

"for this reason" what reason is that ?the wreath of God was satisfied when Jesus became human to reconciled us to God the father. Do more study.
Christianity Etc › Re: How The Passover Reveals Jesus Christ by malvisguy212(op): 6:52am On Jul 23, 2015
malvisguy212:
The festival of the Passover has been
celebrated by Jews for thousands of
years. It is the retelling of the great story of how God redeemed the Jewish nation from enslavement in Egypt. The
celebration itself was given to the Jews
while they were still in Egypt. The
original celebration centered around the Passover lamb, which was sacrificed and its blood put over the doorposts as a sign of faith, so that the Lord passed over the houses of the Jews during the last plague poured out on the Egyptians - the killing of every firstborn. To a large degree, the Passover lamb has been eliminated from the Passover festival (with the only remnant being the roasted lamb shank bone).

The New Testament says that Jesus is our sacrificial Lamb. The Passover lamb was to be a "male without defect,"
Exodus 12:5
The animals you choose must be
year-old males without DEFECT, and
you may take them from the sheep
or the goats.
Jesus forestshadowing this sacrifice in the new testament:
1Peter 1:18-19
For you know that it was not with
perishable things such as silver or
gold that you were redeemed from
the empty way of life handed down
to you from your forefathers, but
with the precious blood of Christ,A
LAMB WITHOUT BLEMISH OR DEFECT.

In addition, when the lamb was roasted and eaten, NONE OF ITS BONES WERE TO BE BROKEN. This fact was also prophesized for the Messiah, whose bones were not to be broken:
Exodus 12:46
"It must be eaten inside one house;
take none of the meat outside the
house. DO NOT BREAK ANY OF THE BONES.

Again our Lord Jesus christ forestshadowing this event:
John 19:32, 33, 36
The soldiers therefore came, and
broke the legs of the first man, and
of the other man who was crucified
with Him; but coming to Jesus, when
they saw that He was already dead,
THEY DID NOT BREAK HIS LEGS ;... For
these things came to pass, that the
Scripture might be fulfilled, "Not a
bone of Him shall be broken."
Psalm 34:20
He keeps all his bones; not one of
them is broken.

It was customary during crucifixion to break the leg bones of the person after a few hours in order to hasten their death. The only way a person could breathe when hanging on a cross was to push up with his legs, which was very exhausting. By breaking the legs, death followed soon by asphyxiation.However, in the case of Jesus, they broke the legs of the other two men, but did not break His, since He was already dead.

Passover symbolism Much of the symbolism of Jesus' last Passover week is lost to us because we are unaware of the customs of the time.
For example, Jesus came into the city of
Jerusalem five days before the lamb was killed in the temple as the Passover
sacrifice for the sins of the people of
Israel. Five days before the lamb was to
be sacrificed, it was chosen. Therefore,
Jesus entered Jerusalem on lamb
selection day as the lamb of God. The
people did not understand the
significance of this, since they greeted
Him with palm branches and hailed
Him as King, shouting "Hosanna,"
which means "save us." However, they
were not looking for a spiritual Savior,
but a political savior. Jesus' reaction was to weep, since He realized that they did not understand the Messiah's purpose in coming:
Luke 19:38
saying, "BLESSED IS THE KING WHO
COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD;
Peace in heaven and glory in the
highest!"

And the reaction of Jesus is :

Luke 19:41
And when He approached, He saw
the city and WEPT over it,

The day Jesus was crucified was the day
of the Passover celebration and the day
that the Passover lamb was to be
sacrificed. For the previous 1,200 years,
the priest would blow the shophar (ram's horn) at 3:00 p.m. - the moment the lamb was sacrificed, and all the people would pause to contemplate the sacrifice for sins on behalf of the people of Israel.
At 3:00, when Jesus was being crucified, He said, "It is finished" at
the moment that the Passover lamb was
sacrificed and the shophar was blown
from the Temple. The sacrifice of the
lamb of God was fulfilled at the hour that the symbolic animal sacrifice usually took place.
Matthew 27:46, 50
And about the ninth hour [3:00 p.m.]
Jesus cried out with a loud voice,
saying, "ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?" that is, "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME?"... And Jesus cried
out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit.

The festival of unleavened bread began
Friday evening (at sunset). As part of the
festival, the Jews would take some of the grain - the "first fruits" of their harvest - to the Temple to offer as a sacrifice. In so doing, they were offering God all they had and trusting Him to proved the rest of the harvest. It was at this point that Jesus was buried - planted in the ground - as He said right before His death.
Paul refers to Jesus as the first fruits of
those raised from the dead in 1 Corinthians. As such, Jesus represents
the fulfillment of God's promise to
provide the rest of the harvest -
resurrection of those who follow the
Messiah.

Demmzy15:
It is clearly shown in the hadeeth, Muhammad is a Prophet of Allah and he received revelations from God.
Tafsir of the Quran by Ibn Kathir states:
".....Isma`il's mother then returned to her place, started drinking water from the water-skin and nursing Isma`il. When the water was used up, she and her son became thirsty. She looked at him, and he was suffering from thirst; she left, because she disliked seeing his face in that condition. She found the nearest mountian to where she was, As-Safa, ascended it and looked, in vain, hoping to see somebody. When she came down to the valley, she raised her garment and ran, just as a tired person runs, until she reached the Al-Marwah mountain. In vain, she looked to see if there was someone there. She ran to and fro (between the two mountains) seven times.'' Ibn `Abbas said that the Messenger of Allah said, "This is why the people make the trip between As-Safa and Al-Marwah (during Hajj and Umrah).''....."

These were things that were there before paganism.
They were rituals which were done by Abraham and Ishmael.
The people of the area followed the religion of Ibrahim through the guidance of Ishmael since he was the prophet of the area.
As time went on and he passed away the people started to stray away from the religion and started introducing foreign things and other gods into their worship.
In the end the only thing that was left from the religion of Ibrahim and Ishmael were those few things.


Did Bukhari write that this ritual was [size=14pt]introduced or first practiced by the pagan Arabs?[/size] You need to know the difference, it was practiced first by Hagar then the later generations which then plunged themselves into paganism continued this practice. The Prophet explained to them in the Ibn Abbas narration that it was this act of Hagar that Safar and Marwah was introduced. Understood?


Bowing down is a form of worship which is meant for God only, Jesus himself bowed down to God. But still today, we have religions in which it requires you to bow down to their idols. Now my question is, if Muslims, Christians and Hindus bow down during worship does that mean we're(Muslims and Christians) worshiping idols just because the Hindus do something similar? This was why the post of malvisguy212 was easily flawed, he tried to pull out similarities between Islam and Hinduism but at the end, Christianity and Hinduism have similar traditions too.


Thrash!

When Moses was away, didn't the Israelites bow down to a golden calf? A form of worship which God himself claimed is for him alone. Guy use your head!
read the op and see , All the evidence are there in the quran and hadith, if the muslims in muhammed era believe doing tawaf between safa and marwa come from Abraham or ishmael, why did they dislike it in the first place ? When did the pagan hijacks this very same ritual ?only muhammed claimed the kabba was a place to worship God , NO other prophet made such claimed,If the Kaba was the house of God, why did Muhammad order his followers to face Jerusalem? Muhammad's 'revelation' in the Quran says that when Allah had Muhammad change prayer directions, it was a test of the Muslims. This sounds like a lame excuse on Muhammad's part.
What's the test? Face another direction?
That does not appear to be such an
incredible challenge! The fact that muhammed and his followers are facing Jerusalem to pray proof the Jews and christians are worshipping the true God
And he wanted to deceive them to worship Allah , but the Jews and christians reject him.

You see , in the bible there is no place christians worship the way pagan do , infacte Jesus message teaches we should not show to much emphasis on religious ceremony (which the pagan do) soo your allegation against christians worshipping the same way pagan did was a lies from the pit of hell, bible never encourage such. When the children of isreal waited for Moses for so long and Moses did not show up, they loose patience , started worship the golden calf , it was Moses HIMSELF who destroyed this idols.

The bottomline!! Muhammed sanctioned the worshipping of pagan ritual in the quran and the hadith confirmed it , the black stone is a symbol of paganism,

Umar bin Al-Khattab was a pagan before his conversion to islam, here what this hadith say:

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 2, Book 26,
Number 675:
Narrated by Zaid bin Aslam: From his
father who said: “Umar bin Al-Khattab
addressed the Corner ( Black Stone)
saying, ‘By Allah! I know that you
are a stone and can neither benefit
nor harm. Had I not seen the
Prophet touching (and kissing) you,
I would never have touched (and
kissed) you.’ Then he kissed it.”

This is a very revealing statement coming from one who used to be a pagan. Umar’s conversion to monotheism was so absolute that he was able to make the above observation while his Prophet was actually venerating a pagan idol. The reason behind Umar’s reluctance in kissing the Black Stone is that the pagan Arabs also performed this same ritual. However, Umar venerated his Prophet and this eventually led him to venerate the pagan idol. Ultimately, he ended up
venerating the Black Stone, Muhammad
and Allah.
Christianity Etc › How The Passover Reveals Jesus Christ by malvisguy212(op): 4:49pm On Jul 22, 2015
The festival of the Passover has been
celebrated by Jews for thousands of
years. It is the retelling of the great story of how God redeemed the Jewish nation from enslavement in Egypt. The
celebration itself was given to the Jews
while they were still in Egypt. The
original celebration centered around the Passover lamb, which was sacrificed and its blood put over the doorposts as a sign of faith, so that the Lord passed over the houses of the Jews during the last plague poured out on the Egyptians - the killing of every firstborn. To a large degree, the Passover lamb has been eliminated from the Passover festival (with the only remnant being the roasted lamb shank bone).

The New Testament says that Jesus is our sacrificial Lamb. The Passover lamb was to be a "male without defect,"
Exodus 12:5
The animals you choose must be
year-old males without DEFECT, and
you may take them from the sheep
or the goats.
Jesus forestshadowing this sacrifice in the new testament:
1Peter 1:18-19
For you know that it was not with
perishable things such as silver or
gold that you were redeemed from
the empty way of life handed down
to you from your forefathers, but
with the precious blood of Christ,A
LAMB WITHOUT BLEMISH OR DEFECT.

In addition, when the lamb was roasted and eaten, NONE OF ITS BONES WERE TO BE BROKEN. This fact was also prophesized for the Messiah, whose bones were not to be broken:
Exodus 12:46
"It must be eaten inside one house;
take none of the meat outside the
house. DO NOT BREAK ANY OF THE BONES.

Again our Lord Jesus christ forestshadowing this event:
John 19:32, 33, 36
The soldiers therefore came, and
broke the legs of the first man, and
of the other man who was crucified
with Him; but coming to Jesus, when
they saw that He was already dead,
THEY DID NOT BREAK HIS LEGS ;... For
these things came to pass, that the
Scripture might be fulfilled, "Not a
bone of Him shall be broken."
Psalm 34:20
He keeps all his bones; not one of
them is broken.

It was customary during crucifixion to break the leg bones of the person after a few hours in order to hasten their death. The only way a person could breathe when hanging on a cross was to push up with his legs, which was very exhausting. By breaking the legs, death followed soon by asphyxiation.However, in the case of Jesus, they broke the legs of the other two men, but did not break His, since He was already dead.

Passover symbolism Much of the symbolism of Jesus' last Passover week is lost to us because we are unaware of the customs of the time.
For example, Jesus came into the city of
Jerusalem five days before the lamb was killed in the temple as the Passover
sacrifice for the sins of the people of
Israel. Five days before the lamb was to
be sacrificed, it was chosen. Therefore,
Jesus entered Jerusalem on lamb
selection day as the lamb of God. The
people did not understand the
significance of this, since they greeted
Him with palm branches and hailed
Him as King, shouting "Hosanna,"
which means "save us." However, they
were not looking for a spiritual Savior,
but a political savior. Jesus' reaction was to weep, since He realized that they did not understand the Messiah's purpose in coming:
Luke 19:38
saying, "BLESSED IS THE KING WHO
COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD;
Peace in heaven and glory in the
highest!"

And the reaction of Jesus is :

Luke 19:41
And when He approached, He saw
the city and WEPT over it,

The day Jesus was crucified was the day
of the Passover celebration and the day
that the Passover lamb was to be
sacrificed. For the previous 1,200 years,
the priest would blow the shophar (ram's horn) at 3:00 p.m. - the moment the lamb was sacrificed, and all the people would pause to contemplate the sacrifice for sins on behalf of the people of Israel.
At 3:00, when Jesus was being crucified, He said, "It is finished" at
the moment that the Passover lamb was
sacrificed and the shophar was blown
from the Temple. The sacrifice of the
lamb of God was fulfilled at the hour that the symbolic animal sacrifice usually took place.
Matthew 27:46, 50
And about the ninth hour [3:00 p.m.]
Jesus cried out with a loud voice,
saying, "ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?" that is, "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME?"... And Jesus cried
out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit.

The festival of unleavened bread began
Friday evening (at sunset). As part of the
festival, the Jews would take some of the grain - the "first fruits" of their harvest - to the Temple to offer as a sacrifice. In so doing, they were offering God all they had and trusting Him to proved the rest of the harvest. It was at this point that Jesus was buried - planted in the ground - as He said right before His death.
Paul refers to Jesus as the first fruits of
those raised from the dead in 1 Corinthians. As such, Jesus represents
the fulfillment of God's promise to
provide the rest of the harvest -
resurrection of those who follow the
Messiah.

McSterling:
I don't have to want the Bible to contradict itself. The truth is that it does in many places. Many critical biblical scholars can attest to this. To say Jesus wasn't born as a result of the union of a man and woman is entirely a matter of faith, because as much as we know empirically, a zygote is only formed due to the fusion of the male and female gametes. If anyone claims otherwise, it would be only reasonable to disbelieve. If I claimed I was the son of Thor, would you take my word for it? Would you believe me?
before you accused the bible of contradiction, you should know that the bible was not written by ONE author , the bible was written by more than FORTY MEN between 1500 years, during this period of times ethics would have change, culture and soo many thing included. Take for example, if I want to greet you in hausa language, Good morning is "inakwana " but to translated it in English is "were you sleep" which mean a contradiction, but when you understand this culture you will find out that the contradiction doesent exist. God did not inspired his writers to contradicts each other, the bible is simply "THE WORD OF GOD IN THE WORD OF MEN" this mean history must be treated as history and culture as culture. Satan is manipulating most of you guys here on nairaland, honestly, I wept for you guys here.

Jesus christ is the first begotten son of God , the bible made it clear, the conception of Mary is not a physical thing, it is God himself who sanctioned the unique birth of Jesus, if you believe in God , is it difficult to believe God can caused a woman to give birth to a son without the agency of a man ? I will past an articles of how animals were having the virgin birth. Read it

Scientists are discovering that virgin
births occur in many different species;
amphibians, reptiles, cartilaginous and
bony fish and birds and it happens for
reasons we don't quite understand.

frosbel:
The seed is ALWAYS from the MAN not from the woman, stop trying to confuse the house.

And when did someone become a legal son by marriage ?? I go die ooooo grin
yes, the seed is always from the man ,the bible say she was conceive without the agency of a man , Joseph had no hand in the birth of Jesus, then who is the father of Jesus ? The only logical explanation you have now is just to proved , Mary commit adultery. But here this my friend, what you are doing now is comparing the nature of God and man, as long as frosbel is concerned, what man cannot do , its is impossible for God to do. Here what God say to Abraham:

And God asked Abraham, “Is anything too extraordinary for the Almighty?”
(Genesis 18:14).
And our Lord Jesus christ say
“With God all things are possible.”
(Matthew 19:26).

And psalmist say :

Psalms 94:8-9: “Pay attention, you
fo* olish unreasoning people! When
will you become wise, you fools? He
who planted the ear, can he not
hear? He who formed the eye, can he
not see?”

Is it impossible for God to allow Mary had the virgin birth ?

I maintain, by the virtue of the marriage Joseph become the lagal father of Jesus
Even Joseph want to reject the pregnancy ,God Himself had to intervene.

How can you believe in something which goes against all logic and reason ?

Jesus had a dad and mum, period. Anything else is fallacy, fiction, a fairly tale and wishful thinking !
who is the father of Jesus ? Can it be Joseph and God at the same time ?

By the virtue of the marriage between Joseph and Mary, Joseph become the lagal son, and by the power of the holy Ghost, Jesus become the son of God.

You funny sha. If Joseph wasn't Jesus' biological father, then they had no link by consanguinity. Except, of course, Joseph and Mary were related.
I have just two things to say:
1.you are using the bible to proved your points, and you want the bible to contradicte its self by calling Jesus the biological son of Joseph and then say again , Jesus is the first begotten son of God ?you are wrong my friend.
2.Jesus cannot be the son of God and then be the biological son of Joseph, abi ? God plan of salvation began since the foundation of this world, Jesus HAD to be born of a virgin so that by accepting Jesus as your Lord mean you are a adopted son of God. If you called Jesus biological son of Joseph, then can you proved it ? Using the bible, I doubt soo.

McSterling:
Haba! No vex. I think I mentioned something about the "legal" thing in one of my earlier posts. It was the view Augustine held and Tertulian disagreed with. But didn't the scriptures talk about the Messiah being an actual descendant of David and not one by legal right? Isn't biblical prophecy supposed to be precise enough? Because as far as I'm concerned, if Jesus is assumed to be a descendant of David just because his adoptive father was, then he really isn't a descendant of David. And about Heli being Mary's father, where does Luke say that?
if Joseph was the biological father of Jesus it mean the curse of jaconiah is on him. Legal right mean he bypass the curse, all this , God plan it from the beginning, its either you are an atheist or not , you cannot believe in half and reject the rest, lukewarm christian.
Christianity Etc › Re: How Is Jesus A Descendant Of David? by malvisguy212: 9:00am On Jul 22, 2015
McSterling:
Seems more like it. Take away the virgin birth and he could well be a descendant of David.
did you read my post ? Joseph is the legal father of Jesus and not the biological father, by legal right he inherited the throne of David. matthew trace his legal right just to proved he is succeeded the throne of David.

Luke written was for both the gentile nation and the isrealite, read the geanology in luke , he added some gentile name just to proved Jesus is saviour of both Jew and the world.

I notice, you guys on nairaland are soo bias in your searching, satan is manipulating you guys, the bible is sooo clear.read with open mind.

NO!!! The viewers cannot comprehends lies. Why did the Muslims dislike the ritual in the first place if they know Abraham performed it ? And muhammed had to intervene for the assurance of performing the ritual. The Jews who live in Abraham time did not even know about this ritual. I don't think the viewers are deluded to believe this lies, not everyone is manipulated by satan. Have a nice day too.

The hadith indicate BEFORE islam came the pagan had being performing the very same ritual, the fact that the muslims during muhammed time did not want to performed the ritual and then later muhammed had to assured them "it is the symbol of Allah" proved the people know tawaf between safa and marwa was pagan custom. NO need to doubt if Abraham performed the ritual.
