His name was transliterated from Hebrew into English Greek which later got Jesus.

That's the same way Moses, Mathew, Peter, James John, Elijah etc became what they are today after transliteration from Hebrew to many languages.

I'm interested in their original names and not the transliteration, because the transliterated names might even be fake.......how do we know?

because he was given birth by a virgin doesn't mean he is A God, use your sense,a human give birth to a God that's nonsense, in this present day,we can also have a virgin birth through artificial insemination though Jesus case is unique.
Use your brain please,this is delusion.

Observation please! is like Jesus is so far to Nigeria o because there are some Christians in my area that gather every Wednesday night shouting and clapping thunderously all in the names of praying. If Christianity is the only religion on earth and the only way to worship God is how Nigerian Christian do I prefer to be an atheist.

fvck off u're a muslim, stop hiding. Hw bout the AHUJA noisy speaker mounted on every top wit one fazing my abored generating noise on daily bases. Is dat hw to worship? Funny enough i dont bloody ve a problem wit that.

we all don't need to argue on this matter, what matters is KNOW UR GOD...AND SERVE HIM . let learn to live as ONE abeg

We said Jesus didn't complete his job and we are right.
Muhammad finished the job by giving us realistic command that will suit the world God has planned which is what we live now. Pastor Chris and many pastors divorced and both or some part remarried.

Muhammed was realistic in all his judgement and decisions. None was faulty nor discriminatory

Islam is a F ALSE RELIGION. If Islam believed in Jesus ,the quran would have contained WORDS of Jesus and obey his commandment. If you believe that a prophet is from God , why dont you obey his messages?

Which of Jesus commandments is in the quran? Non.
Muhammed married the wife of his adopted son . But Jesus tells us not to divorce nor marry a divorced woman.

Matthew 5:31-32 KJV
It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement: [32] But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

Quran says in Surah 33:37.

37 Behold! Thou didst say to one who had received the grace of Allah and thy favour: "Retain thou (in wedlock) thy wife, and fear Allah." But thou didst hide in thy heart that which Allah was about to make manifest: thou didst fear the people, but it is more fitting that thou shouldst fear Allah. Then when Zaid had dissolved (his marriage) with her, with the necessary (formality), We joined her in marriage to thee: in order that (in future) there may be no difficulty to the Believers in (the matter of) marriage with the wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have dissolved with the necessary (formality) (their marriage) with them. And Allah´s command must be fulfilled.

The same God of the Bible that hates divorce cannot be the God that commanded Muhammed to marry his adopted son's wife.

Islam is the devil's lie. That is why everything about Islam is violence .

Quran does not contain the ten commandment as given to Moses.
Islam does not know the meaning of a Prophet. That is why quran calls Adam a prophet.

Am sure this seun is also a muslim

I noticed something you will never see a Muslim in his right senses insulting Jesus but same cannot be said with Christians and their desire to insult Prophet Muhammad (s. a. w) at every chance they get.

I hope this will reboot your brain to get it right next time

Matthew 7:21 – 23
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

If there's anyone who needs brain reboot, it isn't me. You just proved my point with your comment. I said you can't expect a non-Christian to live based on what the Bible says and I can't expect a non-Muslim to live based on what the Qur'an says. You can't expect someone who isn't a believer of your religion to be guided based on what your religion preaches.

In spite of this, you still quoted the Bible to me that's not a Christian. Arrrghh!

Seun is a muslim! Period!

Christianity did not begin as a religion, but was actually a sophisticated government propaganda exercise used to pacify the subjects of the Roman Empire.

You are right. please who is the real follower of Jesus? is it Jehovah witness? is it Cherubim? seraphim? Catholic? Seven days? Pentecostal? Orthodox?

Once u act like Christ in all u do, u automatically become a Christian, to be like Christ you must show love to one another and u must be part of his body through baptism, Mohammed never had any link with Christ, Mohammed came on a frolic of his own he was a very violent man who was eventually poisoned sad enough...

guccibangalee:
theirs nothing like Christianity Paul was the man Dat invented Christianity not Jesus christ of any prophet. But did u kno Dat Christians only believe Jesus is God. Which God says u should no compare him with anybody. I swear any person Dat called Jesus christ God will be punished on d last dat. And again Jesus him self said he's d son of man in d Bible which we believe God is not man.

Maybe u need to read Jn10:31-36. In verse 36 Jesus categorically called himself the son of God.

So, if I called you d son of Allah you claimed, what Il you call that?

Jesus is a Servant of God

The book of the Acts of the Apostles in the Bible is an important piece of evidence on the present subject.  This book details the activity of the disciples over a period of thirty years after Jesus was raised up.  It is important to see what the disciples were saying about Jesus, and what titles they used in referring to him.

It will be quickly obvious that they often referred to him as a servant of God, but never Son of God.  Peter, for example, said:

   “The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his servant Jesus” (Acts 3:13).

Peter further said:

   “God raised up his servant” (Acts 3:26), where the title servant refers to Jesus.

Not only Peter, but the entire group of believers viewed Jesus as God’s servant.  When they raised their voices together in prayer to God, in the course of their speaking to God they called Jesus “your holy servant Jesus whom you anointed” (Acts 4:27).  They repeated this title also in verse 30.  Consistently, Jesus was being called servant of God by the original followers of Jesus.

Some people mistakenly thought that the disciples called Jesus Son of God.  An inconsistency of translation actually helped to give this wrong impression.  In the King James Bible, the translators call Jesus ‘Son of God’ in Acts 3:13, 26, and ‘child of God’ in Acts 4:27.  They simply translated the Greek word paida as ‘son’ or ‘child’.  But the word paida also means ‘servant’, and the present context demands this translation since the author of Acts is trying in this passage to establish that Jesus is indeed the servant of God.

The translators knew that the Greek word paida means servant.  When the same word was used for David in chapter 4, verse 25, they translated it ‘servant’.  Why not call Jesus also by the same title?  Or, if they feel that ‘son’ is the correct translation, why not also call David ‘Son of God’?  Jesus and David are both called by the same title in Greek.  Why not call them by a same title in English also?

Other translators recognised this inconsistency and corrected it in the modern translations of the Bible.  Therefore the New International Version of the Bible and many others call Jesus Servant of God in the verses already quoted above.  Nevertheless, the fact that Jesus was God’s servant was so well known that even the King James Bible called him by this title in Matthew 12:18.  Referring back to Isaiah 42:1, Matthew identified Jesus as the servant of the [quote author=alBHAGDADI post=60770484]https://www.nairaland.com/4064473/what-muslims-belief-concerning-jesus


Dear Nairaland,

I came across the above thread on Front Page stating what Muslims believe about my Lord Jesus Christ. It was put on front page on a Friday, a day pro-islamic threads make front page. What bothers me is that the thread spoke things about my Father and Saviour which are contrary to what I know of him. The sad part is that I couldn't correct those things cos Islamic threads are locked away from non-muslims who can only comment if they swear an Islamic creed. That is why I decided to create this thread to put to correction all those things said about my Father, just as a son would. I will appreciate it if the Moderators move this thread to front page this Sunday in the spirit of fairness.

Points from the thread are in quote.


First and foremost, Easa is not the name given to the Messiah we Christians believe in. His real name is Yahshua. The Bible says he comes in his Father's name (Mathew 23:39). Yahshua means Yahweh's Salvation. Easa doesn't carry such meaning.

Yes, he was a prophet but not a slave talk less of being a slave of Allah. He is the son of the Living God YAHWEH who called him his beloved Son.

Mathew 17:5

... He was still speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice
from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son , with whom I am well pleased ...


If by Easa you mean Jesus/Yahshua, then you are wrong. Tell me how many men can raise the dead? Those that do that today so it in his name. How many men ressurected from the dead as they promised they would? Those that do that today testify of how he resurrected them. How many perform healing as he did? Those that do today so it in his name.

Saying God has to have a wife before having a son is similar to limiting God's powers. If you believe that the God who created heaven and the earth, humans and animals etc needs a wife before he can have a son, then it's best you stop believing he created all those things.

Islam's denial of Jesus being the son of God who is Father has rendered the religion a LIAR and an Antichrist religion.

[b]1 John 2:22

Who is the LIAR? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the ANTICHRIST--denying the Father and the Son.

teepha:
I believe the problem we have in Nigeria is religion intolerance... When we will learn to accept each other without condemning a religion to the expense of other...
Please stop the hate, sometimes I wonder why we hate each other to extent of condemning a God of another religion... I believe if we live together as one we can overcome this hatred we have for each other...sometimes when I read the religion thread I shed tears and wonder that why so much hatred? I think I can never find answers to that question

Really its silly for them to fight. The texts are about 90% the same. The differences are in perceptions. Only one God. From Genesis to the Quran.

God promised to send warners, guides and He sent many.

Every warner was denied by his people.

Every warner faced lots of tribulation and challenges.

Every warner PRAYED to God.

Every warner had one message. "God is One."


From Genesis to the Quran- same story.












But in the last book Quran(Reminder)- God says" today I have perfected your religion and I have named it Islam (Peace)" . TOTAL SUBMISSION TO GOD.

That was 1400 years ago, so everybody defers to the most current message.

Oh please! Where did I say thag Muslims and Christians worship the same God? I merely pointed out that Christians shouldn't judge Muslims based on what their Bible says. Because your Bible says polygamy is bad does not mean that polygamy is bad in Islam.

Because you have not read the quran, I will say you are correct to an extent . I would not have said Islam is a false religion if Islam and quran did not claim that the God of the chistians is the God of Islam.

I know as a father that it is credible for me to say things that are just ,honest and of good report to my children so as not to mislead or destroy them. I cannot say to one child " fight and kill your enemies " , and say to another son " dont fight and kill your enemies but pray for them". If such instructions are in writing and read by the children and compared, they will come to a conclusion that " one of it is not written by their father" , because the instructions are contradictory.

What I am saying is that , God is not a God of confusion, it is the devil that is playing a prank with the human souls so that anyone that falls for his lies can be destroyed.

I was a muslim but I had to pray to know the will of God for my life because this world is something else and deep than our knowledge.

Ignorance is not an excuse b4 earthly laws neither would it be acceptable in heaven.
The bible says in :

Hosea 4:6 KJV
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, .......

The way to know the truth is through God in prayer. He is your Creator , He will not lead you astray.

Islam might be a false religion to you but it is the true religion to me and billions of people worldwide. You're correct as regards God not being a God of confusion. In Christianity, polygamy is forbidden. Yet, in Islam, it is encouraged. Doesn't that prove to us that both religions are not in sync? That is the point of my argument. The adherents of both religions should understand these differences and live with them.

Am a Christian but I don't go to church

At all right

There was a day God told me not to go to church and I regretted it that day.

You know the many controversy that pop up every sunday on NL

It was like, I was the right person to have been there at that time to give a proper response to the ish. But you know, got back from church and the entire thread went without a satisfying answer.

So many Christians like I once said still haven't hit bulleye yet. Just a little turbulence can sink them because they are not convince yet about who they are in Christ

Lest I forget, which church do you attend back den cause you sounded like you no go to church at all again.

I consider some post from some section provocative and not good for my spiritual growth esp those roman** threads, so many times, I cut the hands and pluck the eyes that increase or stir unnecessary emotions

denigma2:
Shallow arguments. If these were all Christians could put up to make Jesus at par with the Almighty, then I now know why people in the West are departing in droves.

That God was killed by something he created
That so because Jesus was born of a virgin, he is Son of God. What of Adam? ( you sidestepped that in (3)). What is too spectacular for God to do?

Didn't Jesus say "I can of my ownself do nothing"? Is that God?

What's the fuss about names? Names are know to change with the times and people. Ordinary Elizabeth can become Liz, Lizzy, Beth, Betty, Eli, Betha, including all its latinized, anglicised and Gregorian versions.

Forget it.
Your knowledge of Islam isn't different from that of the propagandists on cable channels. Seek true knowledge and be free from worshipping God's creations

There is only one true God, Allah, worthy of all our worship. It isn't befitting for Him to have a son.

Is it befitting for you to be attributed to having a tail even when we know they are desirable for cows and some other lower animals?

One thing is certain.The God that the christians worship and that which the muslim worship is not the same. One is false, the othe is true. Jehova is most defunitely not Allah. Their prsonalities as seth forth in the Bible and Quran are contrasting. As for me, Jehova is the true God.
