Christian/Muslim Threadsa must readDon't worry friend, I don't ask scholars about Trinitarian Christianity, I ask Christians directly. Ok let's take things one step at a time. You are either claiming on of two things or both. 1) These accounts are apocrphyal and false, and the Qur'an has similar accounts so the QUr'an is also false. 2) The Qur'an was forged from these apocryphal texts based solely on the fact that the texts were written before the Qur'an. To prove (1) you have to show that the accounts are indeed false. If you're saying they're apocryphal just because they don't match the Bible's accounts, then by definition you'd consider the Qur'an apocryphal and you shouldn't even be interested on whether or not any other account is similar to the Qur'an's since you already think the Qur'an contradicts the Bible and is therefore false. 2) To prove this you have to show how and when the opportunity for forgery would arise, when it happened, and reconcile this with the historical accounts of the revelation and transmission of the Qur'an. Then you would have to show that the similarity is NOT based on a third reason, which is that the accounts (where they match the divine revelation of the Qur'an) are in fact TRUE and the reason they are found in the apocryphal texts is because they are transmitted by Unitarian followers of Jesus (pbuh). If people thought that God incarnate was walking the Earth, don't you think there would be more effort than that to record his every saying and move and protect it from conjecture? Why would any person wait years after the disappearance of Jesus (pbuh) before writing these accounts? Why did they not do so DURING his time on earth so that he could authenticate what was written himself? Four non-conflicting eye-witness accounts? Do you have historical proof or is this just what you believe or are you just trying to pass this on to me? Man, not even Christian Historians and Theologians who ARDENTLY defend their faith make that claim in their defense, so why do you insult me like this? The Greek derivative? It's the very origin of the word and it's "apocrypha". "Apocryphal" is the adjective and is the derivative. The animation of non-living things by the will of God is a cheap parlour trick? He wasn't magical, he was miraculous. You're insulting Jesus (pbuh) and disbelieving when you deny some of his miracles but esteem others. When you're ready to research Islam and learn, pm me. Otherwise I won't be able to convince you that you're deluged with orientalist pseudo-history and libel. We're going around in circles, read what the Jews have said regarding those prophecies and to what they refer and how the mistranslations account for the varied interpretations. Expand on this. So you believe the hominids evolved from bacteria and THEN that happened? Where does it say that in the Bible or are you conjecturing? Well that's why it's called disbelief. I follow Jesus' (pbuh) God. Peace bro, |
