Read 1 Samuel 15:3.
Did you read the entire passage? You shouldnt read Bible like a story book. Verses like this in Quran is why the world is filled with terrorists, I don't see any other religion today, killing because the God who they worship commanded them to.

Show us where John's story dey inside the Qur'an? Show us where the cave dwellers where called Christians?

If the story dey dere you'll say it was copied! If it's not there you'll ask why is it not there! Can you be satisfied?
Sorry for yourself o!
so who were the 7 sleepers in the cave mentioned in the koran. remember the jews asked Muhammed asked the question. so dont come with some divine revelation nonsense.
WHO WERE THE 7 SLEEPRS THE JEWISH WERE TALKING ABOUT?
READ SURAH 18- THE STORY IS EXACTLY LIKE THE STORY OF THE SEVEN SLEEPERS OF EPHESUS IN CHRISTIAN TRADITION.

Of course! As I believed Jesus raised the dead and Moses splited the red sea! All happened by Allah's will!

But it was your pupsy that stole your mumcys red pant! The prophet wasn't a thief ever!
It is hypocritical for an islamist to claim the prophet never stole when it is common knowledge that he robbed caravans
Or is there one rule for the prophet and another for others?

The man whose head was cut off, he picked up his own head in his hands & continued...

Bishop Denis and his companions were so effective in converting people to Jesus that the pagan priests became alarmed over their loss of followers.

In his days (200 A.D.), the persecution against the church was so intense, but it never deterred him & his compatroits.
He would go into the streets openly to preach Jesus in the heat of the persecution.

The Roman governor arrested Denis and 2 others, & after a prolonged imprisonment, he beheaded them on the highest hill in Paris (now Montmartre).

However, in the most shocking of events, Denis picked stood up, picked up his head in his hands and began to preach the gospel of Jesus, walking for another 6 miles before he eventually fell & went to be with the Lord.

How far can you go for the gospel of Jesus?

You seem dumb and mentally blind. Am Tata cos you misinterpreted the gospel to suit the selfish demands of your so called gods of men?

You guys have been religiously miseducated and the irony is that you think your blindness is light. Life has taught me a lot and still teaching....no one escapes life's lessons. Even you guys that preach prosperity only to collect from brethren also get taught lessons by life.

The most important thing is what we learned from life's lessons and how we apply those values for the betterment of our immediate humanity which obviously you have failed from your reckless utterances about life teaching someone you don't know in a faceless forum a negative lesson

Wonders indeed.
I don't believe in trash and cooked up stories by some mortal beings like me.
Those "mortal beings", more intelligent, wealthy and influential than you, have seen too many things in their lifetime that have made them abandon whatever bias or preconceived notions they had. Your not believing does not in any way affect anything.

If you quote from the Qur'an do you read the full passage?

Discuss the full passage let's hear!

Were the Amalekites killed and destroyed or not?

Why was Saul later punished?

Isn't genocide worse than evil?

Even Boko Haram and IPOB will never reach such level of biblical destructions! Israel is getting close!

The story of 7 sleepers like the beheaded head story is a christian myth developed by the church in the 3rd century as a result of persecution of christians by the roman empire.

THE SEVEN SLEEPERS OF.—The story is one of the many examples of the legend about a man who falls asleep and years after wakes up to find the world changed. It is told in Greek by Symeon Metaphrastes (q.v.) in his “Lives of the Saints” for the month of July. Gregory of Tours did it into Latin. There is a Syriac version by James of Sarug (d. 521), and from the Syriac the story was done into other Eastern languages. There is also an Anglo-Norman poem, “Li set dormanz”, written by a certain Chardry, and it occurs again in Jacobus de Voragine’s “Golden Legend” (Legenda aurea) and in an Old-Norse fragment. Of all these versions and reeditions it seems that the Greek form of the story, which is the basis of Symeon Metaphrastes, is the source.

How the church sleepers story take enter Koran and this one no enter? na him I dey ask u?

There was never a saint Dennis or any of the nonsense saints your religion of Christianity cooked up. All of these fables your scammers-in-the-lords fed your kind were to delude you a lot into submitting to their political will.
Lmao, funny how one finger point at others while the rest points at you. You know everything is “ cooked up” but somehow the asinine story of a Jew that crawled out of a virgin is not one of the “cooked up” nonsense. You recognize fables but the Hebrew god created by obviously greedy people is not a fable? A jew performing magic tricks and surviving his own death is not a fable?

You insult people here but you are the worst. Lmao
Reminds me of Somnaviya who refers to the “invented Jesus Christ” but can’t seem to reach the logical conclusion that Yahweh is also invented. Crazy shit!!!

Nam Chimpsky was able to tell it’s handlers how it’s mother was killed by poachers.
U are the one dat need to stop being obtuse
My dog communicates with me when he wants to eat and take a shit ergo animals can speak. It understands me when it hears i want to go out and comes clinging ergo animals can speak. It understands me when i tell it to fetch my pillow when I'm curled on my sofa ergo animals can speak. A gorilla gets taught sign language and communicates in sign language, ergo animals can speak. Ws willing to let the mimicry of a parrot slide so as not too be pedantic and then gave my previous analogy but you had to bring up something even more obtuse. That's not even considering the anatomical and physiological limitations that make it impossible or the crappy false equivalence even. Damn! The number of daft people on this forum is too damn high. No surprise the country's a shithole. Please show me videos of these animals "speaking" 🤡

KosiGee:
Oga this is not true. Did you believe that the man was beheaded and he bent and picked up his head and walked some kilometres before he slumped??

How was he beheaded? Was he standing up unrestrained? Was he not bound? Was he just standing still and the executioner swung the sword or axe and his head fell off and dropped?

Let’s assume he was courageously standing still while this happened, his head fell off, either rolled to some distance or dropped beside him!! Wow..😮 he knew exactly where it fell, went there or bent down, picked it up, continued on his evangelical mission before he fell!

Chai.
Since you decided to go into heavy assumption, then I'm happy to tell you that MIRACLES are never about assumptions.

Reason why many people won't believe, a man constructed wooden ships that houses all species of living things in the most heavy pound of wave that may ever be recorded on ocean. because the assumption are how can wooden ship stand against such heavy wave? Where was Lions kept? e.t.c

So, your assumptions are bases on human limited knowledge meanwhile miracle are ALWAYS BEYONG human limited knowledge.

The confusion started when you want MIRACLE to be explained using human limited knowledge.

Then how is it going to be a miracle?

Re: Denis: The Bishop Who Preached With His Beheaded Head by Kobojunkie:
It is always a good thing to pay close attention to what is going on before commenting!

I am not here to discredit the cultures of people. I am not here to cast down the stories and myths that are related to the deities worshipped by cultures across the world. They each have every right to their beliefs in their various cultures. The Greeks have their gods and those stories are as valid as the Grecians wish for them to be. Orunmila, Obatala, Sango, Ogun, Amadioha, Eledumare, and Osanubua, etc., and other culture gods with stories and myths that still exist to this day are just as valid as the people who believe them as their own; I am not against them. undecided

What I am instead saying here is that the connections and stories pretending attachment of some kind, by the religion of Christianity, to a culture that is removed from it are all made up. Saying that there was no headless Saint Dennis — a non-Israelite aka a dog —that went around preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ of Israel — a Gospel reserved only for Israelites aka sheep— is saying the following
► The non-Israelite aka dog had no access to or authority to preach the Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ - Matthew 7 vs 6. So whatever the Dennis fellow may have done was not the Gospel but something else
Dennis, a non-Israelite, had no place in the Gospel of Jesus Christ of Israel, neither could he have preached the Gospel of Jesus Christ of Israel because Dennis was not born of the blood of Jacob; even after his death, he could not have qualified to know or even teach the Gospel of Jesus Christ of Israel
► There is no direct or indirect connection between the religion of Christianity and the story of Jesus Christ of Israel(or YHWH of Israel).

Stories of headless men walking around can instead be traced to other cultures out there though. grin
