Christian/Muslim ThreadsThe Quran and Questions About Christianity :: Re: The Quran and Questions About ChristianityAnswering; 1) When people try to find a contradiction in the Qur'an, Muslims always have an answer for it. Like it was one verse abrogating another, or the piecemeal revelation, or progressive revelation and historical context. However, the Qur'an contradicts the Bible on a number of themes. 2) I find the following inappropriate; the beating of women, sex with married captives, sex with children, promotion of war, death for apostates. I'm assuming you know where to find the verses, if not let me know and I'll post them. 3) I don't know if Satan wrote the Qur'an, I'm inclined to believe that Muhammad wrote it without Satan's inspiration, as Jesus questioned the idea of Satan casting out Satan. Other answers; 1) I can't, I don't believe that I can prove that people during Jesus' time believed the Trinity concept. But the Jews were awaiting a Messiah who had divine titles. Isaiah 9:6 For there has been a son born to us, there has been a son given to us; and the princely rule will come to be upon his shoulder. And his name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. 2) That question is like asking "Since Allah was always the name of God shouldn't Abraham and Moses have known this as well?" Abraham did not know God by the name Allah, he knew him by the name El-Shaddai. Moses did not know God by the name Allah, he knew him by the names Yahweh and Eheyah Asher Eheyah. The Jews had not known God in a Human form, but they knew of The Father who is Yahweh, and they knew of The Holy Spirit who some named as Shekinah (Sakeenah in Arabic). 3) I don't know how long it was between Adam and Jesus. 4) There are verses that imply that Jesus was subordinate to God whilst he was on earth as a Human, but that is the whole point of his sacrifice. He wasn't supposed to be a sacrificed God but a sacrificed Pure Human. When he was risen he was elevated to the position alongside The Father, this was also his position BEFORE he came down in the flesh. 5) I believe in Paul. His claim to know God's revelation through a vision is no less credible than Muhammads claim to know God's revelation through a vision. The difference is that Paul knew that Jesus was speaking to him, but Muhammad was frightened and did not know immediately that it was supposed to be Gabriel that was speaking to him. 6) They have to be TRUE PROPHECIES and they have to be spoken in the name of YAHWEH. See Deuteronomy 13. . |
