You wrote:I don’t believe that an angel can disobey God, because according to Islam, they don’t have free will. Satan on the other hand, is of the Jin, and like human beings, the Jin also have free will and thus can disobey God, which is what Satan did.
Satan is an angel, he was a chief angel! have you not heard," 2 Corinthians 11:14 - And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
An angel cannot disobey God? I find it strange how Satan deceived the other angels into following him, no free will :roll:
Errors in the Quran
If you are a Muslim: Welcome. Understand that I do not wish to peronally insult you in any way. All religious ideas are by their very nature subject to criticism. If Islam is true, then you should welcome investigation. I ask simply that you consider what is put forth here in the spirit of inquiry.
Many Muslims may feel that it is blasphemous to even offer a criticism of the Quran. Truth, however, should never object to scrutiny. The Bible has been attacked by Muslims as well as most other religions. Quite unlike the claims of Christianity to the inspiration of the original documents, and the high reliability of subsequent copies, the Quran today is considered by Muslims to be the perfect word of Allah. So we move on to a very simple exercise...What does the Quran actually say? See for yourself if this is a book handwritten by God and handed directly to man.
Problems in the Quran
It is important to note at the outset that the Quran itself claims to be perfect (Sura 85:21-22). Therefore, if even one error is found in the text, the Quran is proven false.
Further, Muhammad himself invites us to check his word against the Bible (which Muslims accept as inspired as well - only with errors) (Sura 2:136 as well as Suras 13, 16, 17, 20, 21, 23, 25...). The Quran was written 600 years after the Bible was complete, so the Bible is the authority. Muslims will claim that the Bible was corrupted. The question they cannot answer is, "When was the Bible corrupted?" If they say before 600 A.D. then how can the Quran admonish believers to read it? If they claim it was after 600 A.D. then they have jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire, for we have absolutely no doubt as to the accuracy of copies from at least the 3rd century forward.
This puts Muslim critics in a bind. For if the Bible is incorrect, and the Quran says it is not then the Quran is false. If the Bible is correct, then the Quran cannot be true because the Bible flatly contradicts it in many places (which we will see below). If the Bible is true then the Quran is not. If the Bible is false, then so is the Quran for claiming it is not.

Mistakes regarding Christianity The Quran
Jesus was not the Son of God
did not die for our sins
was not crucified
is not divine
is not the Savior (Suras 4:157; 5:19,75; 9:30)
The Trinity Is the Father, the Mother (Mary), and the Son. (Sura 5:73-75, 116) - 5:73 does not have "in a Trinity" in the original Arabic
Jesus' conception God had sex with Mary to have a son. (Suras 2:116; 6:100-101; 10:68; 16:57; 19:35; 23:91; 37:149; 43:16-19).
General Christians pray toward Jerusalem (Sura 2:144-145)
The Messiah's name is Allah (Sura 5:72)
Other Oddities
The Quran claims that speeches were made by Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Noah, Moses, Mary and even Jesus that contain words such as: "Muslim" and "Islam" that were in a totally unknown tongue and not invented for at least another 600 years (Suras 2:60, 126-128, 132-133, 260; 3:49-52, 67; 6:74-82; 7:59-63, 120-126 etc.).
Sura 20:87-95 records that the Israelites made the golden calf as suggested by "the Samaritan" (Samaritans did not come into existence for many centuries after the time of the golden calf).
Sura 18:84-86 informs us that the sun sets in a muddy spring.
Sura 22:5 explains that humans are formed from a clot of blood.
Sura 7:163-166 claims that an entire village population was turned into apes.
Further, i t would take several pages to list all of the material clearly taken from pre-Islamic sources: myths, stories, superstitions, and legends that were incorporated into the Quran . . . a book supposedly written by Allah without any human intervention.
It is difficult to see the Quran as anything but a flawed (if imaginative) work of man.
Heaven is a place of wine and sex (Suras 2:25; 4:57; 11:23; 47:15)
I find it so easy to notice what is going on here,"Romans 8:4 - That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.Romans 14:17 - For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
The Devil knows what appeals to the flesh, look around and you can see what he has done to this world.
Paul warned us ahead of time,"For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
Jesus also warned us ahead of time, and JESUS said,"For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before.
The Devil is an imitation of God, a travesty. Revelation 13:10-14,"He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
Two horns like a lamb{his message will appear to be a message of hope and peace in disguise}and he spake as a dragon{his speech is deceptive}
My God loves me and his awesome presence of love overpowers me at times.
You wrote:This voice that you claim to hear is of the whispers of Satan, because God does not speak freely to common people. But if you are adamant that it is “God”, I’m asking when does “God” have these discussions with you? I’ll tell you what Omega, the next time “God” visits you, give him a message from me, that “He” should give me a call!
Why don't you call him? maybe you don't have his number!
It is written:Jeremiah 33:3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
Why should he listen to you if you don't listen to him? :roll:
And please do not make a mockery of the Living God. When I hear his voice it is called the word of knowledge where he does not communicate vocally but by the Spirit.
Jesus said,"But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and 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; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one.
I know the voice of the chief shephard, and I do not listen to the voice of strangers{Satan and his demons}
And I leave you with this, what Jesus said to the high priest I will also say to you,"And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee? But Jesus held his peace, And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven."
