Christianity EtcRe: What Would Make You Change Your Religion? by udatso:
Eben 2: @udatso,
I am not really given to argument about the truth of the word of God. nevertheless, it seems to me that you genuinely wants to know and as a result i will give a simple answer to the questions about Jesus' question in Matthew 27:46 and His agony in the garden.

Now, you must know something first; that the eyes of God are purer to behold iniquity, that is why the bible says that the prayer of a sinner is an abomination onto God.

Back to our passage, at this point on the cross, the Lord Jesus - the saviour of mankind was having on Him the sin of the whole world! God at this point was totally separated from Him because of my sins and your sins. God had to turn His back on His only begotten son because of the filthiness of the world that was upon Him.

Jesus was not questioning God; He was quoting the firt line of Psalm 22 - a deep expression of the anguish He felt when He took on the sins of the world causing Him to be separated from His Father. This was exactly what He dreaded when He prayed to God in the garden to take the cup from Him. Mat 26:39

The physical agony was horrible, but even worse was the period of spiritual separation from God. Jesus suffered this double death so that we would never have to experience eternal separation from God.

Another point we must learn from this is that Jesus came in form of flesh, having the same passion, pain and temptation that we go through as human yet, He endured the agony of the cross just so you and I can be saved. He could have chosen not to do it but He did it anyway! He was tempted and the flesh was there to discourage Him, yet He chose the WILL OF GOD. "For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was IN ALL POINTS TEMPTED LIKE AS WE ARE, YET WITHOUT SIN" Heb 4:15.

As for the burial, Hebrews don't cover their dead in the ground as we do here. They have tombs (private & general) where their dead are buried according to their customs, a big stone is usually roled over the tomb just as we use sand to cover our dead. This was how Jesus was buried - according to the customs of the Hebrews. Moreover, forget about the lies and bribry of Caiaphas the chief priest to cover the resurrection of our Lord Jesus. Matt 28:11 - 15

As for me, if Jesus could save me from my addictions and the terrible life i was living and make me a new man and my home a peaceful abode: there is no other argument, there is no other pleas, it is enough that Jesus died and that He died for me.
Brother, it seems you are no more too comfortable with this and at such, I would not keep bringing up more stuffs. But what I would advice sir is that a book of God, shouldn't give us any reason to doubt the crucifixion of christ which every christians' salvation depends on. For a matter that, huge, I think it would be fair for one to have a proper understanding about it. As you have seen, the people who give account of the event that happened are contradicting themselves in som issues. In our social life, the moment something which was assumed to be true shows signs of possibility of not been tru, we examine it to knw the real fact. This even becomes more important when it deals with faith or salvation...at your leisure time, take it upon yourself to study all these verses why those appostles inspired by God, are giving different account of same event. Its never too late to find the truth my dear brother. During the course of this discussions, if I have said anything to offend you or christianity, pleas forgive me as it was never my intention. Once again. Thank you for reasoning with me

ckkris: Please bear it in mind Sir, that I have nothing to gain in trying to win an argument. I will only state the facts as they are in the Scriptures, both yours and mine.
I will respond to the 'THY WILL BE DONE PRAYERS' that Jesus taught mankind.
Same here sir, just stating the facts as they are in the scriptures

Christianity EtcRe: What Would Make You Change Your Religion? by udatso: 8:58pm On Mar 20, 2013
1.What did the inscription on Jesus' cross
say?
John 19:19
19 Pilate had a notice prepared and fastened
to the cross. It reads: JESUS OF NAZARETH,
THE KING OF THE JEWS.
Matthew 27:37
37 Above his head they placed the written
charge against him: THIS IS JESUS, THE
KING OF THE JEWS.
Luke 23:38
38 There was a written notice above him,
which reads: THIS IS THE KING OF THE
JEWS.
Mark 15:26
26 The written notice of the charge against
him read: THE KING OF THE JEWS.
You know, there was only one cross, and
not ten, for Jesus! Yet, the gospels can't
even get the inscription quoted correctly.
Can you honestly tell me what the exact
quote was? Because all four are way off from
each others, especially the one in John
19:19.
2.Was there an earthquake when Jesus
died or not, and did many of the dead
resurrect or not?
Matthew 27:51-53
51 At that moment the curtain of the temple
was torn in two from top to bottom. The
earth shook and the rocks split.
52 The tombs broke open and the bodies of
many holy people who had died were
raised to life.
53 They came out of the tombs, and after
Jesus' resurrection they went into the holy
city and appeared to many people.
You would expect that such monumental
event be recorded not only all over the New
Testament, but also in 100s of books
throughout history, since it would've been
witnessed by thousands and told by
thousands. Yet, not only the gospels of Mark,
Luke and John are virtually silent about (no
earthquakes and no resurrections of dead
bodies), but so are the history books! No
testimonies and no recordings of anything of this sort.
3.While on the cross, did Jesus accept the
drink or refuse it? And what was the
drink??
Like I mentioned above, Christians boast
about how detailed their Bible is. Yet, the
Bible that they boast about is too confused,
too confusing, too erroneous, and too off in
its accounts, so much that one can not
get an honest and accurate account
about any event! So after all, this big book
that is called the Bible is no more than a pile
of man-made corruption and hoaxes.
With this said, let us now examine the
following confusing and erroneous hoax
about Jesus, the drink, and what drink did he
have:
Mark 15:23
23 And they gave him to drink wine
mingled with myrrh: but he received it
not.
Matthew 27:48-50
48 And straightway one of them ran, and
took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and
put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether
Elias will come to save him.
50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a
loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
Luke 23:36-38
36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming
to him, and offering him vinegar,
37 And saying, If thou be the king of the
Jews, save thyself.
38 And a superscription also was written over
him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and
Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
John 19:29-30
29 Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar:
and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and
put it upon hyssop, and put it to his
mouth.
30 When Jesus therefore had received the
vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed
his head, and gave up the ghost.
There are lots of errors and contradictions in
these verses:
1-
We do not know whether the drink was wine
or vinegar. If Jesus was offered apple juice,
then don't tell me it was orange juice!
Vinegar is not wine and a wine is not
vinegar! They are not the same.
2-
Mark 15:23 directly clashes with John
19:29-30 about whether or not Jesus
accepted the drink (whatever that drink
was). Did Jesus accept it or did he reject it?
We do not know. The accounts are too
conflicting.
3-
Furthermore, Matthew 27:48-50 and Luke
23:36-38 are not even sure about whether
or not Jesus took in the drink or not!
Why is this relevant? Because the
Christians and their corrupt Bible do not
have any solid and clear-cut information
about virtually anything! All they have are
conflicting accounts and man-made
corruptions and speculations.
Do you know the answer? Could you
honestly tell me what the drink precisely
was, and whether or not Jesus Christ
accepted that drink?
If the key witness to this event are even contradicting themselves, how can we be sure that

Please, why do you vigorously accept the prayer of JESUS ON THE CROSS, Matthew 27:46, and hesitate to see that this particular prayer is the fulfillment of Psalm 22, authored by King David, who was never nailed to a cross.
Its also not possible to separate Psalm 22 from Isaiah 53:9, where Prophet Isaiah foretold how THE MESSIAH would be buried in a rich man's tomb, which is also fulfilled in Matthew 27:57-61.
I will soon begin to include many HALLELUJAH.
In psalm91, the prophecy says he wil pray and he will be heard, it also says no harm wil befall him? Are these prophecies fulfilled? Also there are also two errors in the fulfillment of this Prophecy:
1. Jesus was never buried
(Matthew 27:59-66, Matthew 28
)! He was temporarily placed in a tomb and
then his body disappeared after that.
But he never ONCE was buried under ground as our dead get buried.
2. Jesus, who was never buried from the first
place, was also NEVER BURIED with the wicked and the rich. His tomb was placed in an isolated area as recorded in the gospels.
Again, verse 9 says that he was to be buried with both the wicked and the rich. Jesus was
buried alone.
-
In Isaiah 53:10-11, GOD Almighty will prolong Jesus' life and Jesus will live to even see his offspring (his children)! And Christ will see the Light and be satisfied after the suffering of his soul. The suffering of his
soul here is referring to the overwhelming fear that Jesus had and the countless cries
and Prayers that he made to Allah Almighty to save him. Psalm 91 further speaks clearly
on this. Also, Jesus' life was never made long or extended.He only lived for 33 years, so
we're told in the gospels, and he certainly never married any woman nor had any child from any woman. Yet, Isaiah 53:10
clearly says that he will live and he will have and see hischildren.
Please I want to knw how are all these prophecies fulfilled as we know he never had children, prayed and wasn't heard like I have gvn you the verses, no harm would come to him but it did.
My dear brother, we are talkn about salvation here of numerous people in the world believn in a story with so much ambiguity here. In my nxt post I will give you the contradictions in this case of crucifixion

Christianity EtcRe: What Would Make You Change Your Religion? by udatso:
ckkris: Udatso has established a fact: that in Sura 3:45 Jesus is, not only a word or message of God, but also THE CHRIST.
Sura 21:9 says that JESUS IS A SIGN TO MANKIND.

No other prophet is THE CHRIST in the Koran and the Bible.
Now what are the attributes of THE CHRIST, or El Maschiack in Hebrew.

Isaiah 53 showed clearly how His body would be buried with the rich, as His Soul was made a sacrifice for sin.
Why do u always try to deviate from the topic at hand. If u are a true christian you must believe in evvry word in the bible...I gave you several verses that jesus wasn't crucified and wasn't willing to die for our sins as he was praying to be rescued from death. The fact that you are bringing other verses that he completed the prophecy is a contradiction which would put the authenticity of the book of God in doubt as God can't make a mistake..
u talking about sign, yes and so what..in the quran, there are many signs, all prophets are signs of Allah, the miracles they performed are signs of Allah just like quran 5:3"On that account: We ordained for
the Children of Israel that if any one slew a
person - unless it be for murder or for
spreading mischief in the land - it would be
as if he slew the whole people: and if any one
saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life
of the whole people. Then although there
came to them Our messengers with clear
signs, yet, even after that, many of them
continued to commit excesses in the land." Y do u limit it to jesus alone? What exactly are u trying to prove by saying he is the sign...is it a unique tittle like masih(messiah)?
The funniest part is that u are saying I admit that jesus is christ like I was denying it before. Any muslim who doesn't believe isa(pbuh) is the christ isn't a muslim. For your information, evry knowledgeable christain knows that jesus is also called (almasih) messiah translated christ. But does christ mean one who will die for our sins and be God? Yes, that's christian point of view. That christ meaning the spiritual saviour. But NO in islam. This title is unique to him as he is the only prophet in islam that will save the muslims from antichrist.
Islamic tradition holds that Jesus, the son of
Mary, was the promised Prophet and Masih
(Messiah) sent to the Israelites, and that he
will again return to Earth at the end of times and he will defeat Masih ad-Dajjal, the "false Messiah" or Antichrist..
Now I gave u som verses to attend to if jesus is really dies for our sins and you have refused to answer them, I wil keep posting them till you answer.
..all am saying is
that he knew he was going to die for our sins,
WHY WAS HE PRAYING FOR HELP To BE SAVED FROM DEATH?ISN'T THAT SHOWING HE WASN'T WILLING TO DIE.
It is assumed that such a person whom
you claim is divine knows his purpose of
coming to earth which is to die for your
sins. If he knew of this y did he pray
begging God to b rescued. Does God
pray?
JESUS PRAYS FOR RESCUE
". . . and began to be sorrowful and very
depressed. Then saith he unto them,
‘my soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even
unto death' . . ."
"And he went a little further, and fell on
his face, and prayed, saying, "O my
Father, if it be possible, let this cup
pass from me; nevertheless, not as I
will, but as thou wilt."
(This is the quality of a good Muslim who
submits his will to the will of God).
Matthew 26: 37-39
"And being in an agony, he prayed more
earnestly;
and his sweat was, as it were, great
drops of blood falling down to the
ground. Luke 22:44
He even was sad that he was going to
die "elai elai lama sabachtani" lord, lord,
why has thou forsaken me.....".mathew 27:46

Concept: I will start my view on this issue with personal experience & the way I assess Nigeria society. I started work as a fresh graduate with this attitude of getting things done the normal way but I was wrong, things started going badly for me because I did not compromise, a guy very new on a job, you will understand my dilemma. I got the message, sought for advice & I got the way things work around there. 'My Oga at the top' who has been threatening me with sack sensed it that things have changed. Why? I worked on the field dealing with suppliers, let me continue further, my oga knew that smoothness that accompanied my work was because I had compromised because this same journey, he also had passed through. Knowing well that my knowledge of the operation is corrupted, he revealed to me what he has been concealing, I mean his true self. To cut the long story short, we all made money.

Do you know why this is dangerous for us? The culture of corruption is in every institution in Nigeria, starting from our homes & beyond. From my story above, the scenario will be regenerating in that company because as I speak I am no longer their employee, so is my oga but one thing remains the way things are done that I met & left there, & for sure I know is not the best practice. This is the way Nigeria is run by our politicians. The country can only be run by someone who sees himself that he has nothing to lose, look at my sentiment above I compromised because I know how many interview I attended before getting that job & my attempt to commit suicide once, all because I could not get a job & having this one I am ready to keep it whatever it might cost.

Lets check on people that are going to pass this test in Nigeria. I can say none but we still have some few guys like the Taxi driver, the airline cleaner that sometimes returned huge sum of money back to the owner. If we talk of our leaders or lets say those who impose themselves on us as our leaders, most have zero integrity however those we can assume to have above 50 can still be given a chance in a society that corrupt practices have been glorified, then above 50 mark is doing great. We all know some of the guys that fall into this category, this may be mixed but I will try to analyse it.
1. Some have never been accused of economic or financial crimes.
2. If at all accused, no strong evidence to convince the public why they should be convicted.Especially those acclaimed by their direct community to be progressive.
3. Despite our aspersion on public office holders as cheat, their work & progress are conspicuous to the public.
4. Wisdom is the principal thing, get wisdom, get understanding. Decision making is vital even if u are a rogue.

Any other can be added guys. My philosophy about life is not about religion, education attainment or ethnicity but that inner drive, the burning desire to get result, if our so call leaders lack some of these, we still have a very long way to go. Sum it up guys & know what kind of leaders we should crave for in 2015. God is not ready to bless Nigeria until we are ready to make it work. We are blessed already.
God bless you for this wonderful speech.

WHY THE NOISE TO CRUCIFY BUHARI, CAN SOMEONE PLEASE AT LEAST TELL NIGERIANS WHY WE MUST CRUCIFY GEN. BUHARI
The man General Muhammad Buhari has served as a Military Governor, a Petroleum Minister, PTF Chairman and as a Head of state. There is hardly any Retired Military office or civilian that has held as many lucrative offices as he had. Today, General Buhari has no single house in Lagos where he served as a head of state and no single house or plot of land in FCT, yet he stole and has a lot of money. Ordinary commissioners, Ministers, FCT mayors, Senators and house of rep members owns, 2, 3, 4, and more houses in Abuja. Recently, EFCC said some one owns 48 houses in Abuja, yet Buhari has not a single one but he still stole money and has enough money.
General Muhammad Buhari was formerly leaving in a rented house in Abuja, but packed his load and went back to his village when his rent was increased because he could not afford the new rent. Yet he stole and has a lot of money. As a former head of state and petroleum minister, he has not single oil block. All other heads of states and presidents owns multiple oil blocks in Nigeria, but Buhari owns none, yet he stole and has a lot of money.
General Buhari has all his children go through and still going through schools in Nigerian public universities till today. Yet he stole huge money and has a lot of money. Unfortunately, General Buhari lost one of his daughters after she gave birth to a child in a general hospital in Kaduna, when German hospitals and Indian Hospitals has become the 37th and 38th state of Nigerian politicians. Yet he stole money and has a lot of money.
General Buhari was ones in Abuja with a rickety jeep and when he arrived from Kaduna some mechanics had to come to the CPC headquarters to do some little work on the engine of the jeep so it could be able to take the General back to Kaduna. Honestly, It was a shame seeing that. Yet he stole a lot of money and he has a lot of money.
During the presidential election, General Buharis house in his home was dilapidating and a Good Samaritan employed people to come and renovate the house without the consent of General Buhari and he even frowned at it when he saw people come to renovate his house without his consent. Yet he stole a lot of money and has a lot of money.
Personally, General Buhari has not given me a dime, even a transport fare and I have not seen him give anyone, please if he has given you prove me wrong. Yet, he stole and he has so much money. At the inauguration of the merger committee by general Buhari. No food was served, not even a drink or water. People at the function said they were so hungry that they have to look for where to eat after the inauguration. Yet he stole and has so much money.
I have heard people say he stole 52 big suit cases filled with dollars or pounds and that he stole 2.5 Billion dollars, even though there is not evidence and subsequent governments has investigated the issues and confirmed it was baseless and lack a single truth. But I still think those 52 big suit cases filled with pounds sterling?s and 2.5 Billion dollars are still in his bedroom and the only conclusion I have is that he is keeping them to give to his late grand fathers when he finally goes to meet them in death. Don?t you think I am right?
Obasanjo, was worth less than #1Million before he became president in 1999, I remember Pastor Bakare said that he helped to pay OBJs children?s school fees when he was in prison, but today, OBJ has mansions, oil blocks and billions with his mega farm. Buhari has none yet he stole money.
It is on record that Haroun chairman of the probe panel by Obasanjo to investigate PTF came out and said PTF account was audited every year while Federal Government account was not audited in 36years.

Buhari told Obasanjo to publish the report of the panel, but Obasanjo could not publish it because it was a certificate of honor for Buhari. If that Dr. Haroun?s report had any page in it that indicted Buhari, Obasanjo would have used that to disqualify Buhari from contesting against him in 2003. We did not also forget that even the dreaded Ribadu led EFCC gave Buhari a clean bill of health amongst all the candidates that contested the 2007 general election

Abacha stole so much and even when he is dead, the family is still not able to exhaust his loot and are living big. Buharis family is living with almost nothing, yet he stole a lot of money. IBB was one of those buying PHCN during the privatization by the federal government. Atiku and co owns private Universities, OBJ owns one, and Minister of Niger Delta owns 5 houses and may be more in Abuja and many in Dubai. Almost all former heads of states and presidents owns oil block and refineries abroad. Diezanni Allison the minister of petroleum has his children flying in private jets abroad and living expensive lives while their mother is still here flying private jets and you know how many houses she has got, but Buhari has none, yet they told us he stole so much, 52 big suit cases filled with pounds sterling?s and 2.5 Billion Dollars still inside his bedroom and he has not spent a dime out of it. Then he must be keeping it for his late grand parents who he will give when he finally gets old and joins them in death. Please ask this government or anyone to identify any house in Abuja, Lagos or any other place in Nigeria and the whole world owned by Buhari apart from his home in Kaduna and his fathers house so I will take over them immediately or find out any of his children schooling abroad or any oil block that he owns or any expensive car that he drives so I will be able to take over them. I will be very generous to share them with you. I am just using my tongue to count my teeth now. I hope you will still do the same thing God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Why this so much hatred for Buhari?
Its so annoying seeing how we can change our view due to sentiments.
When GEJ was voted in, everyone was saying, yes,we need young men as presidents. We need people who have tasted poverty to lead us cause they know how it feels to b poor...we no longer need old men who have held 9ja ransom and moving us backward? After GEJ gave us the first blow with oil subsidies stuff, we started shouting, he has no regards for the poor.
After the way he has being handling corruption and security cases, we now call him clueless and inexperience. Some of this once GeJ lovers call him all sorts of names like retardeen, slowpoke..etc. Recently, a news was posted talking about GEJ's intention to increase fuel price and almost all the comments there are all attacking him, some calling him names....even with all these, we wouldn't open our eyes and vote for a trusted and tested person who can lead us to ur goals. Som also keep talking about Buhari being old, how does that affect his legacy and leadership? Why are you asking for young men as presidents even after seeing how our oga jona has been misbehaving nationally and internationally?
I know evryone is entitled to his opinion but please let's not allow our sentiments cloud our judgement hence make decisions that we wil regret.I don't care about who leads 9jeria but what I do care abt is he is tested and trusted and can b trusted. Look out how GEJ handle nuhu's report on corruption in the oil sector, do u think, in buhari's administration, those guys responsible wd be smiling nw. Even doyin okukpe acknowledged buhari as a sincere and honest man but foolishly said that that's not the typ of person we need in 9ja. If that's not the type we need, who do we need? Committee forming presidents after each events. Am surre a special committee has been set to investigate d bomb blast at kano recently. Personally, I think Voting for GEJ or pdp is the worst mistake anybody would eva make in 2015. Who knows, maybe a committe has been set up to monitor my comments and reply to oga J in 2 weeks. Let's be truthful to ourselves please
Christianity EtcRe: What Would Make You Change Your Religion? by udatso:
ckkris: As stated above, the Koran Sura 3:45 agrees that Jesus is THE WORD OF GOD. Now,if your Scripture and mine both declare Jesus as THE WORD OF GOD, it seems a neutral starting point for more discussions.
JESUS (PBUH) "IS A WORD FROM
ALLAH" NOT "THE WORD OF ALLAH"
The Qur’an mentions in Surah Ali ‘Imran
Chapter 3 verse 45
"Behold! The angels said: O Mary! Allah
giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from
Him: his name will be Christ Jesus. The son
of Mary, held in honour in this world and
the Hereafter and of (the company of) those
Nearest to Allah.
[Al-Qur’an 3:45]
Jesus (pbuh) is referred in the Qur’an as a
word from Allah and not as ‘the word of
Allah’.
"A word" of Allah means a message of Allah.
If a person is referred to as "a word" from
Allah, it means that he is a Messenger or a
Prophet of Allah.
2.
THE TITLE OF A PROPHET (PBUH)
DOES NOT MEAN THAT IT EXCLUSIVELY
BELONGS TO THAT PROPHET (PBUH)
Different titles are given to different
prophets (pbut). Whenever a title is given
to a prophet (pbuh), it does not necessarily
mean that the other prophets do not have
the same characteristic or quality. For e.g.
Prophet Abraham (pbuh) is referred to in
the Qur’an as Khaleelullah, a friend of Allah.
This does not indicate that all the other
Prophets (pbuh) were not the friends of
Allah. Prophet Moses (pbuh) is referred to in
the Qur’an as Kaleemullah, indicating that
God spoke to him. This does not mean that
God did not speak to others. Similarly when
Jesus (pbuh) is referred to in the Qur’an as
Kalimatullah, "a word from Allah", it does
not mean that the other Prophets were not
"the word," of Allah.
3.
JOHN THE BAPTIST (PBUH) IS ALSO
CALLED "A WORD" FROM ALLAH
Yahya (pbuh) i.e. John the Baptist (pbuh) is
also referred to in the Qur’an as
Kalimatullah so its not unique to him alone like I saidi.e. a word from Allah in Surah Ali
‘Imran, Chapter 3, verses 38-39
"There did Zakariya Pray to his Lord,
saying: "O my Lord! Grant unto me from
Thee a progeny that is pure: for Thou art He
that heareth prayer!
While he was standing in prayer in the
chamber, the angels called unto him: "Allah
doth give thee glad tidings of Yahya,
witnessing the truth of a Word from Allah,
and (be besides) noble, chaste, and a
Prophet – of the (goodly) company of the
righteous."
[Al-Qur’an 3:39] please remember the difference again, its kalimatu minhu (word from Him) and not kalimat

So now you see my brother" there is difference between six and half a dozen not to talk of "word of God" and "word from God"..please read the translation again and honestly tell me its word of God.

ckkris: These can be discussed one by one/
If we agree that Jesus of Nazareth is indeed THE WORD OF GOD, then progress is easy.
Do you accept, based on Scriptutres, that Jesus is eternal Word of God?
According to the bible, the WORD is GOD. Are you by chance asking me to become a christian just to reply me? Is that what your pastor(s) taught you?
Christianity EtcRe: What Would Make You Change Your Religion? by udatso: 3:39pm On Mar 19, 2013
ckkris: Thank you Sir,
This prayer in Matthew 27:46 is a wonderful fulfillment of Psalm 22, where Jesus declared 'they pierced my hands and my feet'. This is very important because King David, the writer of Psalm 22, was not at any time nailed to a cross, but like Abraham before him, saw The Messiah on THE CROSS, bearing the sin of all mankind, as Prophet Isaiah also saw, and described graphically in Isaiah 53.
You see, there are hundreds of Scriptures in the Old Testament that gave out the full description of THE MESSIAH, and Jesus of Nazareth fulfilled every one of these Scriptures.
See also Koran Suras 21:9; 43:61; 3:48; 19:34
What's this bla bla u are talking..mayb u didn't read my post earlier..all am saying is that he knew he was going to die for our sins, why was he praying for help? Isn't that showing he wasn't willing? Let me repost it again
It is assumed that such a person whom
you claim is divine knows his purpose of
coming to earth which is to die for your
sins. If he knew of this y did he pray
begging God to b rescued. Does God
pray?
JESUS PRAYS FOR RESCUE
". . . and began to be sorrowful and very
depressed. Then saith he unto them,
‘my soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even
unto death' . . ."
"And he went a little further, and fell on
his face, and prayed, saying, "O my
Father, if it be possible, let this cup
pass from me; nevertheless, not as I
will, but as thou wilt."
(This is the quality of a good Muslim who
submits his will to the will of God).
Matthew 26: 37-39
"And being in an agony, he prayed more
earnestly;
and his sweat was, as it were, great
drops of blood falling down to the
ground. Luke 22:44
He even was sad that he was going to
die "elai elai lama sabachtani" lord, lord,
why has thou forsaken me.....".mathew 27:46

How will the world end.’
Hypothesis - Some may be right, some may
be wrong. But either the world will perish or
the world will live forever. Both cannot take
place simultaneously. But
this is exactly what the Bible says. It is
mentioned in the Bible, in the book of
Hebrews1:10- 11, and
the book of Psalms102:25
and 26, that…‘Almighty God created the
Heavens and the Earth, and they will perish.’
Exactly opposite is mentioned in Ecclesiastics1:4, and the
book of Psalms78:69,
that… ‘The earth will abide forever.
- Both cannot take place. The world cannot
abide forever as well as perish. If a book of God can contradict itself like this, how can you be sure of all other verses?
2.There were 245 singing men and women.’ Were they 200 - or were they 245 singing men and women? Context is the same - A
mathematical contradiction. It is mentioned
in the 2nd Kings24: 8, that…‘Jehoiachin was 18 years old, when he began to reign Jerusalem, and he reigned for 3 months and 10 days. 2nd Chronicles36: 9, says that…‘Jehoiachin was 8 years old when he began to reign and he reigned for 3 months, 10 days. Was Jehoiachin 18 years when he began to reign, or was he 8 years old? Did he reign for 3
months, or did he reign for 3 months 10
days?
3.it is mentioned in the 1st
Kings7:26, that…‘In Solomon’s temple, in his molten sea, he had 2000 baths. In 2nd Chronicles 4: 5, he had 3000 baths. Did he have 2000 baths or did he have 3000 baths? –clear cut mathematical contradiction. If these bible writers were inspired by God, are you telling me God doesn't know maths(na'uzubillah)
4 it is mentioned in the 1stKings 15:33, that… ‘Basha, he died in the 26th year of reign of Asa.’ And 2nd Chronicles16:1, says
that…‘Basha invaded Judah in the 36th years of the reign of Asa.’ How can Basha invade 10 years after his death? - everybody knows this is not possible...
I have more countless of similar clear cut contradictions like this but I wait for your reply before I add more

Christianity EtcRe: Where In The Bible Did Jesus Mentioned He Is God by udatso: 5:47pm On Mar 18, 2013
enilove: If your fathers name is "Yakubu Olajuwon". And the saw name is "Olajuwon",are you not "Olajuwon" also?If your own name is Taiwo,people will call you "Taiwo Olajuwon".You can be refered to ,anywhere as "Olajuwon".Not only do you answer your fathers name,you also inherit his blood and genes too.The DNA test can be conducted to verify if truly you are the son of Yakubu Olajuwon.

A young lion is a lion.
A son of God is God.
God is the title of the Supreme creator of all flesh and the universe.
Jesus said "My father and I are one.If his father is a God,then he is a God too.
A husband and his wife are one,it will not be wrong to call her "mrs the husband's name",like mrs Olajuwon.
If you are walking on the road with your wife, and you introduce yourself to a stranger as Kunle and say "this is my wife",at another time d stranger would call ur wife mrs Kunle, because the two of you are one.

Lets read in the bible where Jesus calls himself God:

In John 10:25-37.Jesus answered them,"I told u ,and ye believe not:the works that I do in my fathers name,they ,they bear witness of me.But ye believe me not,because ye are not of my sheep,as I said unto you.My sheep hear my voice and I know them,& they follow me:And I give unto them eternal life:and they shall never perish,neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.My Father,which gave them me ,is greater than all; & no man is able to pluck them out of my Fathers hand.I and my Father are one.
verse 31 - 38 .Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.Jesus said "Many good works have I showed you from my Father ;for which of those works do ye stone me? The jews answered him, for a good work we stone thee not ;but for blashhemy;and because thou BEING A MAN MAKEST THYSELF GOD.Jesus answered them "Is it not written I said YE ARE gods? If he called them gods ,unto whom the word of God came ,and d scripture cannot be broken;say ye of him,whom the Father hath sanctified,and sent into the world,'Thou blashphemest; because I said I AM THE SON OF GOD?If I do not the works of my father ,believe me not.

From the above scripture ,u can see where Jesus said that, he is the son of God.and the pharasees concluded that as a man Jesus was telling them that he is a god by saying he is the son of God in heaven.

A young lion is a lion.
If God could call d Israelites gods ( created in Gods image),Jesus Christ who had no earthly father is a higher god,but not God the Father.

The muslims are serving a different God that is different from the God that called Jesus Christ, His son, and gave him power to heal the sick ,open the eyes of the blind,raised the dead and commanded the sea to be calm ,and the sea obeyed. The quran said it was not Jesus Christ that was crucified on the cross.The God that sent Jesus Christ said 'one man one wife',but the god that called Muhammed said more than one wife.
So writing things and miracles of Jesus in the quran does not mean that they believe him,neither are the two books from the same God.God is not a confusionist.

The birth of Jesus was through the holy spirit, if the holy spirit is the Spirit of God,who then is his Father if not God.If the blood that was flowing inside Jesus was of the Holy spirit,because DNA test can not link him to any earthly father,then his is a son of God,and has the attributes of his father,God Almighty.That was why he could raised Lazarus that was dead for 4 days back to life.

Jesus does not need to say categorically again that he is god.God himself called the israelites gods. The title God is not as important as the relationship btw Jesus and God his father.God said in the bible "thou shall not worship other gods beside me".
God is a title ,and it is the same as "Alpha and Omega".
Revelation 1:8, Jesus Christ calls himself the "Alpha and the Omega".

God is a title,and Jesus has what it takes to bear the title ,by virtue of his birth.

Thanks
Hahaahahahah...very funny post...son of lion is a lion bla bla bla.......anyway, I would love to prove u wrong abt that logically but I wd rada prove u wrong in other points u raised from ur bible.
Its true God is not a confusionist like u said trying to say that both books can't b from God if they say different things...mayb u are evn going too far comparing the bible and the qur'an my dear. We know that bible is a compilation of different books written by men who were inspired by God. I want to list some verses down and I want you to tell me hu inspired these men?
if we read, in
Ezra 2: 65, it says…There
were 200 singing men and women -
Nehemiah7: 67…‘There
were 245 singing men and women.’ Were
they 200 - or were they 245 singing men and
women? Context is the same - A
mathematical contradiction.
It is mentioned in the 2nd Kings 24: 8,
that…‘Jehoiachin was 18 years old, when he
began to reign Jerusalem, and he reigned for 3 months and 10 days. 2nd Chronicles36:9, says that…‘Jehoiachin
was 8 years old when he began to reign and
he reigned for 3 months, 10 days. Was
Jehoiachin 18 years when he began to reign,
or was he 8 years old? Did he reign for 3
months, or did he reign for 3 months 10
days?
it also mentioned in the 1st
Kings 7:26, that…‘In
Solomon’s temple, in his molten sea, he had
2000 baths. In 2nd Chronicles 4: 5, he had 3000 baths. Did he have
2000 baths or did he have 3000 baths? –furthermore it is mentioned in the First Kings15: 33, that… ‘Basha, he died in the
26th year of reign of Asa.’ And 2nd
Chronicles16: 1, says
that…‘Basha invaded Judah in the 36th years
of the reign of Asa.’ How can Basha invade
10 years after his death? - ...my brother. Handle the contradictions and confussions in the bible first before you try to compare it with the holy qur'an

1-John 1:1,14, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... 14And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth."

2-John 20:28, "Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!”

3-Col. 2:9, "For in Him [Jesus] all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form."

4-Col. 1:19, "For it was the Father’s good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him,"

5-Phil. 2:6-8, "...although He [Jesus] existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

6-Heb. 1:8, "But of the Son He says, “Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever, and the righteous scepter is the scepter of His kingdom."

Jesus is one person with two natures: divine and human. This is not a logical impossibility and it is something that is supported in scripture.

Jesus is God who came down from heaven to this world in form of man to sacrifice himself for the sins of the whole world. No ordinary man is pure enough to sacrifice himself.

These verses below are proofs to support Jesus acting as God


He is worshiped (Matt. 2:2,11; 14:33).
He was called God (John 20:28; Heb. 1:8 )
He was called Son of God (Mark 1:1)
He is prayed to (Acts 7:59).
He is sinless (1 Pet. 2:22; Heb. 4:15).
He knows all things (John 21:17).
He gives eternal life (John 10:28).
All the fullness of deity dwells in Him (Col. 2:9).
Talking about him being obedient till the point of death...

Am so glad with your replies.
Am sure you wil agree with me that if one is considered God, it doesn't mean he is god. Som people worshiped inanimate objects, animals. Does that mean they worshiip God?
If he was, why did he deny being called Good?
1.We all know that a God is independent but jesus was dependent:
I cast out devils by the Spirit of
God…."
Mathew 12:28]
"…I with the finger of God cast out
devils…."
Luke 11:20
"I can of mine own self do nothing: as I
hear, I judge: and my judgement is just;
because I seek not my own will, but the will
of the Father which hath sent me., John 5:30
2.Nothing is greater than God yet take a look at "My Father is greater than I."John 14:28 "My Father is greater than all."John 10:29. If his father is greater than him, he definitely can't be God.
3.In ur points u gave me a verse showing that he knows everything, but in this verse am about to give you, u wil c that he wasn't All-knowing
Mark 13:32 “No one knows about that day or
hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the
son, but only the Father.”
Since Jesus, may the mercy and blessings of
God be upon him, did not know, he was not
all-knowing, and therefore, he cannot be the
God whose knowledge is all-encompassing..
4. U said according to the bible that he was called "son of God" now, let me give u verses showing son of God title is not limited to jesus(pbuh)
in Isaiah 62:8
refers to the entire house of Israel as being,
‘Sons of God’.
Romans 8:14 Paul tells us about those who
are led by the spirit:
“because those who are led by the Spirit of
God are sons of God.”
So y do av to just pick out jesus as the only son of God?
You pointed out yourself that "5-Phil. 2:6-8, "...although He [Jesus] existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-....." If he didn't regard equality with God, y do u regard him as such?..all the verses you have being quoting tells me that, he was worshiped, he was called God, he was called son of god which I av discredited that he is not the only son of God, he was worshiped doesn't mean he is worthy of worship, he was called God even when he denied bn God..
I hav so many things to say to u nw bt until u reply me, I wd know if ur understandn is competent wt my explanation or not.
Or mayb my understandn is low

His comments might not but would you disagree with the bible if it says he is not God?
Try these points:
Mark 6:10
“Why do you call me good?” answered Jesus,
“No-one is good but GOD ALONE!”
Matthew 5:17
“Do not think that I came to abolish the Law
or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish
them, but rather to fulfill them. I tell you the
truth, until Heaven and earth disappear, not
the smallest letter, not the least stroke of the
pen, will by any means disappear from the
Law until all things are accomplished.
Anyone who breaks one of the least of these
commandments and teaches others to do
the same will be called least in the Kingdom
of Heaven. But whoever keeps the
commandments and teaches others to do
the same will be called great in the Kingdom
of Heaven.”
Matthew 7:21
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord’
will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only
he who does the Will of the Father who is in
Heaven. Many will say to me on the 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!”
Feel free to ask your pastor about them. I have more points for you
Christianity EtcRe: What Would Make You Change Your Religion? by udatso: 11:09am On Mar 18, 2013
jmoore: Ignorance made you to leave. You know nothing about christianity! Jesus is God
If jesus is god, why is it so difficult to find this in the bible...take a look at these:

1. Bible Says that God is not Man
The Bible says:
Numbers 23:19 “God is not a man…”
Hosea 11:9 “...For I am God, and not man...”
Jesus is called a man many times in the
Bible:
John 8:40 “…a man who has told you the
truth…”
Acts 2:22 “Jesus the Nazarene, a man
attested to you by God with miracles and
wonders and signs which God performed
through Him in your midst, just as you
yourselves know.”
Acts 17:31 “He will judge the world in
righteousness through a man whom He has
appointed”
1. Tim. 2:5 “…the man Christ Jesus.”
God is not a man, but Jesus, may the mercy
and blessings of God be upon him, was a
man, therefore, Jesus was not God.
2. The Bible Says that God Is Not a Son of
Man
Numbers 23:19 “God is not a man...nor a son
of man…”
The Bible often calls Jesus “a son of man” or
“the son of man.”
Matthew 12:40 “…so will the son of man
be…”
Matthew 16:27 “For the son of man is going
to come…”
Matthew 28 “…until they see the son of man
coming in His kingdom.”
Mark 2:10 “But so that you may know that
the Son of Man has authority…”
John 5:27 “…because He is the son of man.”
In the Hebrew Scriptures, the “son of man” is
also used many times speaking of people
(Job 25:6; Psalm 80:17; 144:3; Ezekiel 2:1;
2:3; 2:6; 2:8; 3:1; 3:3; 3:4; 3:10; 3:17; 3:25).
Since God would not contradict Himself by
first saying He is not the son of a man, then
becoming a human being who was called
“the son of man”, he would not have done so.
Remember God is not the author of
confusion. Also, human beings, including
Jesus, are called “son of man” specifically to
distinguish them from God, who is not a “son
of man” according to the Bible.
3. The Bible Says that Jesus Denied He is God
Luke 18:19 Jesus spoke to a man who had
called him “good,” asking him, “Why do you
call me good? No one is good except God
alone.”

So-brit:
@logicboy, you are wrong on that statement that all religion is ethnocentric and hence human creation. Christianity is the universal religion except u want to buy into some schools of thought that christianity is not a religion but a way of life. From the mission statement of Jesus, christianity was not for the jews alone but all mankind. Guess u have lost touch with the scripture before u called it quit with religion. U may need to go back and check if that's your reason.
Well it seems u haven't read the bible much. Anyway take a look at these:
Jesus Only For Jews:
Matthew 15:22-24
"And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out
of the same coasts, and cried unto him,
saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou Son
of David; my daughter is grievously vexed
with a devil. But he answered her not a word.
And his disciples came and besought him,
saying, Send her away; for she crieth after
us. But he answered and said, I am not
sent but unto the lost sheep of the
house of Israel".
Matthew 10:5-6
"These twelve Jesus sent forth, and
commanded them, saying, Go not into the
way of the Gentiles, and into any city of
the Samaritans enter ye not:But go rather to
the lost sheep of the house of Israel".
Note:
1.) Jesus refuses to attend to a gentile
because he was only sent to the Children of
Israel.
2.) He warns his disciples not to preach to
gentiles.

jammyng: if you have read the Koran well, u won't even say this. The Koran didn't call Jesus a prophet but a 'Messiah'. In other words, a saviour!
A messiah and messenger of God.
Surah Nisa, Chapter No. 4 Verse No.157 which says:
"They said, the Jews (in boast)That we killed Christ, Jesus, son of Mary, the
Messenger of Allah,They did not kill him, Neither did they crucify
him, but it was made to appear so, And all those who differ therein are full of
doubts, with a no certain knowledge,with only conjectures to

Ruth Isaac: first of all may God forgive you and deliver your soul, whosoever that does not belive in Trinity does not know or belives in Jesus @ all. No one is even arguing weather he is a christain or a Muslim, if he was a Muslim, all muslims would have had a soft heart, bcause i cant even find one single character and teaching of Jesus in Islamic, so also i cant find any characteristics of Islamic in what Jesus has tought us. All we know is that Jesus christ is the son of God n remain the son of God STAMP and SEAL since from the days of all the Oga's @ the Top.

I dare you to show me an unequivocal/ambiguos verse in the bible where he claimed divinity. The most common phrase used in the bible is "son of man".
As for ur trinity stuff, that verse in kjv, that speaks about trinity in the bible was removed from the RSV by 32 christian scholars of the highest eminence backed by 50 coperating denominations....if that verse is now removed, what's your trinity based on...check the whole bible, u wnt find the word"trinity"

Am so so mad. What's wrong with you guys that u can no longer think well again? If a news about rape is posted, u start hearing " end time is near" "give ur life to christ" most you guys take every topic as an avenue for preaching your faith? The annoying path is that most of these guys who keep shouting, jesus, christ, God, don't even know much about him. Some behave like saints when they are really satan in human form. Like the saying goes" empty vessels make more noise"
Let me ask those that believe in this story this : who has seen angel before? How can u tell if its like an angel? B4 u know it, another person wd post a pic of a cloud that appears to b a human head with horns and dark in complexion and people will shout "devil/satan" "end time is near". If hunger makes you to eat grass, yet don't forget you are stil human for if a goat eats pudding, a goat it remains. I think its high time we start behaving like humans.
