that is a factual error, because not all the prophets are mentioned in the Bible, or Quran, hence some of them could have been chinese, some Arabian, some Aztec, etc. It wouldnt be fair if only the people of Israelites were warned but other people were also punished with them.
Really? What is fair about "killing unbelievers where you find them" or saying "there is no compulsion in religion" and then making those who reject Islam pay a tax? As I posted the two themes in the Bible are the Kingdom of God, which God revealed through His prophets and the King of the Kingdom of God, which God also revealed through His prophets. The Kingdom of God will be set up on earth in Israel where Jesus will reign when he returns.
Are you saying that Jews and Christians shouldnt believe in Muhammad(pbuh) as a prophet just because he was in the lineage of Ishmael? Ok so you said why Jews and Christians dont believe in Muhammad(pbuh), but do you know why Jews dont believe in Jesus(pbuh) either? because they think he didnt fulfill the prophecies, so I know that you feel they are wrong, same with me.
Read Romans 11, which I posted to teach you why the majority of Jews reject Jesus as their Messiah.
There is no need for another prophet like Moses to teach mankind Yaweh, the Father's truth.
That is not really up to you, that is up to God.
God inspired this:
Hebrews 1
1:1 God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, 2 in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world. 3 And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high; 4 having become as much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent name than they. 5 For to which of the angels did He ever say,
"Thou art My Son, Today I have begotten Thee"?
And again,
"I will be a Father to Him And He shall be a Son to Me"?
6 And when He again brings the first-born into the world, He says,
" And let all the angels of God worship Him."
7 And of the angels He says,
"Who makes His angels winds, And His ministers a flame of fire."
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. 9 "Thou hast loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Thy God, hath anointed Thee With the oil of gladness above Thy companions."
10 And,
"Thou, Lord, in the beginning didst lay the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the works of Thy hands; 11 They will perish, but Thou remainest; And they all will become old as a garment, 12 And as a mantle Thou wilt roll them up; As a garment they will also be changed. But Thou art the same, And Thy years will not come to an end. "
13 But to which of the angels has He ever said,
"Sit at My right hand,Until I make Thine enemies A footstool for Thy feet"?
14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?

You could say that Muhammad(pbuh) plagiarised scriptures, but how can that be possible with the verses that are completely different from the scriptures, and how could he have obtained these advanced scientific verses? If you can answer these then Muhammad(pbuh) probably did plagiarised scriptures.

There is more than enough historical evidence that proves all of Muhammad's so-called science came from Greek philosophy, that his basic theology came from Judaism, and his concept of Paradise is an amalgamation of pagan sexual perversion, mythology, and Christian tradition. Why are Muslims promised 72 "hora" and 28 prepubescent boys to serve them and to be used in Paradise? Pederasty, free sex, and pedophilia are found in Arabic culture both pre and post Muhammad.
The "goat" sacrifice is in 2:67-71 (Noble Quran), sorry it is not a goat but a heifer, my mistake.
My response to your "goat" applies to your "heifer'.
Numbers 19:1-2
19:1 Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, 2 "This is the statute of the law which the LORD has commanded, saying, 'Speak to the sons of Israel that they bring you an unblemished red heifer in which is no defect, and on which a yoke has never been placed. NAS
Why do you post an article that says Quran is for zionist? Because I have no problem with Jews, the reason some people hate Jews is not because their religion, but mostly over land.
Zionism is concerned with land and in the Qur'an Allah tells the Jews and Muslims the land of Israel belongs to the Jews. Did you bother to read the article or the articles sited?
And about Deutronomy 18:15-21. Ishmaelites are said to be the brothers of Israelites in Gen. 16:12, and Gen. 25:18, And second Muhammad(pbuh) was very much like Moses, and third, God did put His words in Muhammad(pbuh) mouth. And Muhammad(pbuh) did speak in the name of God.
Moses(pbuh)escaped from Egypt, I said emigrated, but I hope you knew what I meant, same thing happened to Muhammad(pbuh).
Millions have "escaped" persecution by going to another country. America and many European nations have millions of citizens who escaped Muslim persecution by leaving Muslims controlled nations, or due to religious persecution. My German ancestors left Switzerland for the U.S. for this reason, as did my English ancestors. This argument is nonsensical.
You can accept Islamic literature or not, it is up to you. but we believe that Quran is enough. Islam was not born with Muhammad(pbuh) but in reality it was restored with Muhammad(pbuh).
Real history disagrees with you. Islam was born when Muhammad had his visions.
Muhammad(pbuh) was not a warmonger, he may have fought in self-defense or in just cause, but just because he fought that doesnt make him any less of a prophet. Are you sure that the Qurans prophecies were off by 700 years. that prophecy is saying that the Byzentines will fight again and will win, where did you get 700 years from. that happened around 7-10 years, I dont remember the exact time though, but it was around that.
Muhammad died in 632 and Constantinople was conquered in 1453 or 821 years after this so-called prophesy.
and second Allah is the same God of Old and New testament, and every Christian should know that nothing can happen without the will of God.
The Qur'anic Allah is a perversion of Yaweh, who never told Christians or Jews to advance the cause of Judaism or Christ with the sword, taxes or kill those who reject Judaism or Jesus' message.
And tell me why have I not establishe Muhammad(pbuh) as a prophet, is it because you wont believe his prophecies, the scientific miracles, the prophecies made about him? How can I convince you when everything I tell you, is regarded by you as false.
Muhammad did not make any prophesies, his "scientific proofs" were common knowledge among educated Arabs, Jews, Christians, and pagan Greeks, and Muhammad was an egotistical, sex crazed warmonger who resorted to deceit and his military genius (he was a good general) to have his way.
