I see reasons our graduates are called half baked or unemployable graduates by most company. Lecturers not attending to students and spending time with their students. They believe their are mature upstairs but they could not come out of school to be self employed but sitting at home waiting for white collar jobs. Msquare220: |
Any mail from a bank that start with "Dear Customer" is a scam mail. Your bank will mention your name as you registered the name with the bank. For example, Dear Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. Notwithstanding, always check the mail address that sent you the message. If you are not still sure, go to your bank physically to confirm and NEVER supply any of your bank details online through whatever mail sent to you. |
johnydon22:That is the high level of hypocrisy Christians of today have plunge themselves in. |
How my post is relevant is this. Christians believed that Bible in what the Quran is referring to but not. Secondly, where God told us to believe in the book revealed before the Quran, does not mean we are to follow it but to believe that truly those books of revelation were before in existence and Truely are revealed to the past prophets. The Quran has superseded all other Holy books revealed to those past prophets. So, God almighty have decided to preserve the Quran since the Quran will be the last Testament to all mankind and Jinn as well. Due to the promise of God to preserve the Quran, that is why the Quran is still in its original form of its revelation. And it will be preserve till the end of time. Thirdly, when we say a book has been corrupted, it means the original message has been tampered with or what is been presented is not or totally different from the original book revealed. So, the originality of Torah and Injil (not bible) have been lost due to the way we human beings decided to always disobey God. Example of true teachings of christ is the preaching of oneness of God as you can see in book called Gospel of Mark 12: 28-33. 28 KJV:And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all? 29 KJV:And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: 30 KJV:And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. 31 KJV:And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. 32 KJV:And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he: 33 KJV:And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. So, the essence of quoting the above verses of the bible is that all prophets of God believed that God is one. The priest that asked Jesus the first commandment were asking based on Torah with them. Just to be sure Jesus is Truely a prophet of God. Because all prophets of God preaches that there is only one God, the apha and omega. So, God almighty is not recommending the Torah or the Bible for Muslims to follow, because the Quranic messages have superseded those of the Torah and Injil. But, to acknowledge that those books have been revealed to earlier prophets be him. Lastly, you Christians believe or concept of God is to shallow. Even when the bible says, with God all things are possible. We Muslims do not believe that the knowledge of God is bound by space and time. The knowledge of God almighty is all encompassing, without bound. He has the knowledge of the past, present and future. He has the knowledge of what is visible and what not is visible to mankind. He has the knowledge of what he hidden and what is exposed. He has the knowledge of what you about to think of in the next microsecond or time smaller than that. He has the knowledge of what occupies every space on earth and the heavens. His knowledge is all encompassing. Not bound by space and time. So, you need to get this straight and clear in your mind whenever we are talking of God almighty that revealed the Quran and all other books of revelation before it. truthman2012: |
In this verse you quoted, we Muslims believe in what was revealed to all the prophets from God and not what they called the book of God that as have been tampered with or written by themselves. See below. Quran 2:136. Say, ‘We believe in Allâh and in that (the Qur’ân) which has been revealed to us, and what was revealed to Abraham and Ismâîl and Isaac and Jacob and his children, and what was given to Moses and Jesus and (we believe) in what was given to (all other) Prophets from their Lord. We (while believing in them) make no discrimination between anyone of them, and to Him do we submit ourselves entirely.’ قُولُوا آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ وَمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَيْنَا وَمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَىٰ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ وَالْأَسْبَاطِ وَمَا أُوتِيَ مُوسَىٰ وَعِيسَىٰ وَمَا أُوتِيَ النَّبِيُّونَ مِن رَّبِّهِمْ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِّنْهُمْ وَنَحْنُ لَهُ مُسْلِمُونَ Explanation: 2:136 This verse also relates the cosmopolitan nature of Qur’ânic teaching. All prophets of Allâh and all revelations coming from Him must be accepted; no distinction is to be made between one prophet and any other. The Holy Qur’ân recognizes the prophet of the Jews and the Christians, and the prophets of all the other nations. The Jew thinks that God revealed the truth only to the Israelites; The Christian thinks that the truth was revealed only to Jesus; The Hindu thinks that God revealed the truth only to the sages of India and Zoroastrian thinks that the truth was revealed to Zoroaster alone. The Buddhists are no different. It is part of the merit of Islam that it is the only religion that recognizes the prophets of all countries and of all nations, and of all times. |
For the second verse of the Quran quoted, see below: Quran 2:4. And who (also) believe in that (Message) which has been revealed to you and in that which had been revealed before you, and who have firm faith in the Hereafter. وَٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيْكَ وَمَآ أُنزِلَ مِن قَبْلِكَ Explanation: 2:4“That was revealed before you”مَآ أُنزِلَ مِن قَبْلِكَ - is a reference to one of the fundamental doctrines of the continuity of Divine revelations taught in the Holy Qur’ân. In these words the Divine origin of all those religions is admitted that have the claim of being as such. This is testified in the following words: "And indeed We have sent Messengers before you. There are some of them whom We have mentioned to you (in this Qur’ân) and there are some whom We have not mentioned to you." (40:78). The Holy Qur’ân thus requires a belief not only in its own truth, but in the truth brought by the previous messengers and their Scriptures. It thus infuses a spirit of allegiance and reverence not only to Moses and Jesus, but also to all others with their founders; whether they be Krishna, Confucius, Lao Zi or Buddha. Mâ unzila min qablikوَمَا أُنزِلَ مِن قَبْلِكَ indicates the acceptance that we must have towards other religions and fosters feelings of great respect. Hindus, Christians and Jews, while claiming Divine origin of their faith, deny this generosity to the adherents of other faiths. This becomes the root cause of hatred between the nations and has often resulted in untold bloodshed. The Holy Qur’ân eradicates the very idea leading to discord and dispute between nations and religions. It teaches that every nation has been blessed with a teacher from Allâh (35:24; 2:80). In these words there is a declaration that all the prophets in various lands came from Allâh and brought the same light from One Divine source. This provides great hope towards the promotion of peace, harmony and tolerance among the followers of different religions. truthman2012: |
We Muslims have clear understanding of what the Quran says. Mere looking at what you type in your post already shows you are trying to translate the verse of the Quran to suite your bigot mind. See below the true translation and explanation of one of the verses you quoted below: Quran 10:94. And if you (O reader!) are in doubt regarding that which We have revealed to you, ask those who have read this Book (- the Qur’ân) before you. (They will tell you that) there has, in fact, come to you the perfect truth from your Lord, so be not of the contenders at all. فَإِن كُنتَ فِي شَكٍّ مِّمَّا أَنزَلْنَا إِلَيْكَ فَاسْأَلِ الَّذِينَ يَقْرَءُونَ الْكِتَابَ مِن قَبْلِكَ ۚ لَقَدْ جَاءَكَ الْحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكَ فَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِينَ Explanation: 10:94 “And if you are in doubt”(فَإِن كُنتَ فِي شَكٍّ); in doubt is that particular reader of the Holy Book who because of his limited Divine knowledge is unable to grasp the underlying meanings and the message. If someone is unable to understand the message being conveyed, he is advised to refer to the explanation given by the people blessed with Divine knowledge. As such people may be difficult to find in the age of the reader, the reader is told to refer to the explanations given by the learned of the past; “who were before him”. This verse is under attack by Christian missionaries, and is one of their favourite to try and prove that the Holy Prophet was in great doubt, so he should consult the learned of the past; Christians and Jews. Some simple minded Muslims get easily convinced and are misled with this argument and start to think that the Holy Prophet (pbuh) is being addressed here,however, this is not the case. Neither 94 nor 95 are being addressed to the Holy Prophet (pbuh), but to the readers of the Holy Qur'ân endowed with less knowledge and weak in belief. The meaning of this becomes clear when we read the admonition in verse 95: “Be not of those who cry lies to the messages of Allâh” (Râzî). The Holy Prophet never cried lies to the messages he received from the Exalted One. It is the reader who out of lack of knowledge and misunderstanding rejects the messages of the Holy Qur’ân. Moreover, in the words, “Which We have revealed to you” no doubt tells us that the recipient of the Revelation was the Holy Prophet and not the reader; still it is not a proof that the Holy Prophet is being addressed here. Careful reading of the following verses makes the subject matter clear. The opening words of the next section we read: “Say, O you people! If you are in doubt regarding my creed,” (10:104) refer to those addressed in 10:94. The Holy Prophet (pbuh) is said to have the greatest certainty about the Revelation which he received and never doubted. Similarly in 17:23 we read “Your Lord has enjoined you to be good to parents". Here too the reader is being addressed, and not the Holy Prophet (pbuh) who was an orphan child. truthman2012: |
I think the problem of you Christians is high level of ignorance. That is why Jesus, according to you bible, says most of his people will perish because they are ignorant. In Islam, bible is never referred to as the word of God but the Injil. The injil is the scripture revealed to Prophet Isa (Jesus christ) and not the bible. The word Bible is derived from the Greek word biblo, which means collection of books. While the injil, some translate it as Gospel. That is why you will see in the beginning of the books that comprises the new Testament, "Gospel According to". Note the word "According To". For instant, Gospel According to Mark. In English language, the word "According to" means that what so and so says or believed in but not necessarily the person narrating it believed in it. So, the book "Gospel According to Mark,", that is part of the New Testament, is a book written by someone on what Mark believes or narrated of the teachings of Jesus. Such narration is not God's word. If you carefully, without any iota bigotry in you mind and head, study the Qur'an, you will understand the difference between the word of God and words of narration by men, which your bible represents. |
jimmynauty:Because the earth is a place of test, where you work to gain the reward of the paradise. So, it is not a thing of choice. You have to earned it. |
Marriage is not all about how much you earn, but the blessings that follows it. We human get a lots of things wrong. I was earning 35k a month when I got myself into marriage business. I got a new job and resume the same month. The new job earns me 180k per month. Let me also tells you a story of a poor man that consulted someone. He was advice to go and marry. He married the 1st wife, but still poor. He was advice to marry another wife, which he did but still poor. He complained again. He was advice to marry the 3rd wife. Thereafter he became rich. So, is blessing of being rich is in his marriage to more than one wife. |
Uniqueempress:I think you should wonder how you women of today thinks. That is why there is the need for two people going into marriage should first go for counselling before marriage. Marriage is about mutual responsibility. The duty of a man in a marriage is to fetch for the family the financial needs, while the responsibility of the woman in a marriage is home keeping which include the children upbringing. The end result of we human trying to change God design is this kind of problem of children being kidnapped. I am not saying women should not have a source of income. But the source of income shouldn't be the type that will prevent her from carrying out her primary responsibility in her matrimonial home. To me this act of women going out to source financial income with men, from morning till night, leaving the home to a stranger is totally not civilization but a way we create more problem to ourselves in the society. |

Misogynist2014:The Quran did not confirm the Bible. The Quran only confirms the true book called Injil given to Jesus by God Almighty and not the bible. That is why, God inform the Muslims in the Quran that, if what you call the word of God, why there is discrepancies in it. That is, if the bible is truly holy and from God, the discrepancies and inconsistencies in the bible won't be there in the bible in the first place. So, do not use the Quran to justify the misconceptions of you Christians as the Quran and the teachings of Islam is very clear and without ambiguity. |
Banter1:The position of the Quran is clear. Jesus christ is a prophet and messenger of God sent only to the children of Israel only and not to the whole world. He is not God nor Son of God but a prophet and a messenger given a holy book called Injil (ie The Gospel) and not Bible. The bible means collection of books. He is alive and not crucified by anybody. He did not die for anybodies sin. Even the bible made us to understand that he(Jesus) did not want to die. That is why, according to the bible, he said while on the cross: God, God why did you forsake me. Which means he did not expect God to abandon him when he needs God to rescue him from the hands of those that planned to killed him through crucifixion. So, there is no plan between him and God to die for anybody sins. This is a misconceptions. |
kay1one:Who says the bible is holy? Do you know the meaning of the word bible. Bible means collection of books. So, you need to ask yourself if the books collected together were holy and divine before the bible can be address as being only. Books written, on an account of an event that happen, by individuals can't be referred to as holy. Yes, these books might contain some quotation from an holy book such as Gospel of Jesus christ himself, that does not make it holy. Divine revelations or Holy books are reveal directly by God to His chosen ones, such as Jesus christ. The individual must be a true prophet and a messenger of God sent to a nation, as in the case of Moses and Jesus sent to the people of Israel with Torah and Injil (The Gospel) respectively. |
aminho:In Islamic teachings, Jesus was not crucified nor dead. So, the idea of resurrection from the dead did not arise. On Islamic account, there was a plan to kill him by his people for preaching ones of God, asking them to shun their corrupted way of life and to direct them back to God Almighty. So, God place his look or resemblance on one of those that are planning to kill him . The person was crucified while Jesus was raised to heaven by God alive and not his dead body. So, the Quran made Muslims to understand that they were not sure if they killed Jesus as God almighty made it seems to them that they killed him but they killed him not. So, from the teachings of Islam, Jesus christ is still coming back on earth. He is coming back not as a prophet again but as a follower of prophet Muhammad on a special assignment which he is going to complete before his death |
EddyTells:Please answer the following questions for me: 1. What is the Concept of God in Christianity? 2. Who is Jesus? God, Son of God, Son of Man? 3. If the word Christian derived from christ, which means follower christ. Then what are we going to call Jesus christ himself? 4. Following the question 3 above, what is the religion of christ. 5. Why do we have gospel "ACCORDING TO" Mark, Matthew, Luke, John etc and not Gospel "BY" JESUS or "ACCORDING TO" JESUS? Not even gospel BY Mark, Matthew, Luke, John etc? Please, make reference to Jesus statements from the Bible to prove your point. And let be mature in the answering of the Question. |
[quote author=Emusan post=31950155][/quote] Please i need christians who are well knowledgeable about the teachings of Jesus Christ to help in answering the following questions. Are you knowledgeable enough to accept the truth?Did you have the knowledge of what you were thought at school before your teacher thought what he/she thought you? This is a response from an individual that is ready to pour out nonsense for the gullible to accept by force. 1. What is the Concept of God in Christianity? God is the creator of heavens and earth, who has no beginning and end, and who has shown His love as a Father to us by sending His ONLY Son to die for our death.Quote relevant verse from the Bible to support you claim please. 2. Who is Jesus? God, Son of God, Son of Man? Both and not only these because Jesus has many names & titles and they all signify to something.If Jesus is both, why the statements in the following verses from the bible? A) Matthew 17: 13-17 13. When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?” 14. They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15. “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” 16. Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” 17. Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven. B). Matthew 15: 1-5 1.Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked, 2. “Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don’t wash their hands before they eat!” 3. Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition? 4.For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’ a and ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’ 5. But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is ‘devoted to God,’ 6. They are not to ‘honor their father or mother’ with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. C). Matthew 19: 16-17 16. And Behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall i do, that i may have eternal life? 17. And he said unto him, why callest thou good? there is none good but one, that is God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. From the few quoted verses from the bible above, Jesus never claim to be God but address himself as Son of Man. While his disciple address him as Son of God. 3. If the word Christian derived from Christ, which means follower Christ. Then what are we going to call Jesus Christ himself? The Master who gave His life as a ransom to many.I don’t think you are paying attention to my questions. That is why I requested for a knowledgeable Christian to answer my question. Did you pass your English Exam(s) at all? May be I should reframe the question for you: If the word Christian is derived from Christ, which means followers of Christ. Is Jesus a Christian as well? That is, follower of himself? 4. Following the question 3 above, what is the religion of christ. Judaism.If the religion of Jesus Christ is Judaism, why do we have another religion called Christianity? 5. Why do we have gospel "ACCORDING TO" Mark, Matthew, Luke, John etc and not Gospel "BY" JESUS or "ACCORDING TO" JESUS? Not even gospel BY Mark, Matthew, Luke, John etc? Gospel simply means "Good News" so if you complete it, it will read "The GOOD NEWS ACCORDING TO Matthew, Mark, Luke, and JohnJust as I have said, you are not paying keen attention to the questions. It is either you lack the understanding of English language, Ignorant about the religion of Christianity, beating of the bush, or trying to skip the content of the question. Because, I am not asking you what is the meaning of Gospel. If you look at my question properly, I highlighted the words “ACCORDING TO” and “BY”. In English language, when you say “According To”, it means someone else is narrating event or what someone else believes in. In other words, the person narrating it may not necessary believe in it but just narrating the event or believe of the person he is narrating. For instance, Gospel According to Mark, means there is someone that write down what Mark believes about what Jesus preaches. And Definitely, notMark that wrote the Gospel himself and probably not withness the written of the Gospel. While, “By” means the Gospel is written by Mark himself. Please, make reference to Jesus statements from the Bible to prove your point. And let be mature in the answering of the Question. No need for this now.Please, next time try not to be in a rush to answer question you have no knowledge of. Consult the knowledgeable one first. |
