Christian/Muslim Threadsa must readPeace humble guest, I would in fact analyze it to see if it's really from God. The Persians also believed in "daevas" which means demons. Anyways, the Quran contains what the pre-Islamic Arabian pagans believed, that's the truth. Jinn is nothing short of superstition. The Jews believed the Holy Spirit was the Spirit of the LORD. They just believe He is the force of God's power rather than a personality. Numbers 11:25 Then the LORD came down in the cloud and spoke with him, and he took of the Spirit that was on him and put the Spirit on the seventy elders. When the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they did not do so again. 2Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. 4All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues[1] as the Spirit enabled them. -Acts 2:2-4 Now we see the Holy Spirit in Christianity is not different then the Holy Spirit of Judaism. However, Islam's perception of the Spirit is just plain wrong so obviously Islam is wrong. Matthew 28:19 So go and make disciples in all countries. Baptise them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. And even if Jesus went into an indepth analysis of the Trinity, would you then believe? Again, it does not have a relationship with the Trinity. The Spiritedness of God and the Reasoning of God are clearly portayed in Judaism. The "Desiring" doesn't make sense nor does it fit Jesus. Well, what the Quran says about Jesus not being crucified is not reality. To say that Jesus somehow escaped a Roman prison and escaped a city that wanted him dead and wasn't crucified is pure conjecture. Matthew 16:21-23 21From that time on Jesus began to explain to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life. 22Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. "Never, Lord!" he said. "This shall never happen to you!" 23Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men." You and whomever wrote the Quran does not have in mind the things of God, only the things of men. Islam refelcts an evident humanistic mentality. Islam ascribes guman reasoning to the Will of God. You say about Christianity "God wouldn't do that" You don't know anything about God, only this fallacious humanistic depiction of Him in Islam. Your god is alien to me. I follow the Living God. Carefully read Isaiah 53 and Psalm 22 you may understand that Jesus was crucified and it was God's Will. Yeah, what about those prophets that aren't mentioned? Zoroaster isn't mentioned in Islam, but he was a major teacher of primitive monotheism. Even the Quran mentions Zhul-Qarnain, a Zoroastrian king (Darius, I think.), but why not Zoroaster himself? Heretical is any fairy-tale BS written centuries after Jesus lived. Realize that the Gospels are silent about Jesus's childhood, and people got curious and contrived myths and stories as "fill in" for this empty chapter. Anything about baby Jeus talking to date-palsm that bring form water, making live birds from clay, and talking from a cradle is really flaky. If you feel comfortable believing in flaky apocryphal myths, well that's unusual tolerance. No where throughout the entire Bible is God ever considered a one-bodied God. That is just an implied thing by humans that don't know anything about God. Your perception of God is purely humanistic and not supportedin reality. The argument goes beyone the Trinity and Jesus's divinity, you need to look at the other issues. Islam teaches you the Holy Spirit is an angel, well that is obviously wrong. That alone is enough to conclude your faith is untrue. A short history lesson, the heretical religious groups sought haven in Arabia. Also, the Persians followed a completely different god than the Jews and Chrisians. Even the Sabeans believed in a supreme god called Alamaqh (or something like that). These different versions of God aren't the same God. Allah is just not possible in reality. because the Quran reaffirmed their heretical beliefs. well sure they didn't question it's basis...it was created from their corrrupted religions! To you it's ironic one would say that Islam is the corrupted religion. Just observe your prophet Muhammed and his behaviour. The man was a farcry from Jesus Christ. He used marriage for diplomatic reasons, making a mockery of a sacred bond. He killed people and led wars...not the greatest role model, nothing like Jesus Christ. |
