friendofutube2009's reply
[[[[[[REPLY: Thanks for the reply although I was a little bit sad for I was expecting a point-by-point rebuttal of the arguments that I raised regarding the divinity of Jesus. Well, if it is really true that you spent an hour composing your reply (which I doubt), then I am not in a hurry to have it. You can do in one, two, three days, even weeks and I dont mind. I do not like a forum or the Youtube comment because they are too cramped for me. You as a heavy weight in your field and me just a student of comparative religion, need an arena just for you and me. Moreover, I write profusely and therefire I do not like the forum or comment style way of discussion. I am challenging you now and it is only between YOU and ME.
Well, I mentioned in my first email to you regarding mud-slinging, right? Now, you are starting it. My response to you on not discussing the Last Prophet (pbuh) in the light of my won Book is in kind and goes like this:
Did you ever realize that the reason you don't want to discuss Jesus as God, in the light of your own books, is because it shows him NOT to be God? Next time, I will reply in kind for you mud-slinging.
Thanks for your inviting me to the forum. But I do not need your reply there. I want a reply from you in this ONE-ON-ONE. By the way, all the arguments that I mentioned are not meant to be answered in toto and in one setting. You can answer them one at a time, for example, point 1 today, point 2 next and so on. I am not in a hurry and I want this to be between YOU and ME. This is not a dark alley. In fact, like two boxers, you and I will be in focus between ourselves and only the two of us. But if you are getting cold feet, then its up to you to turn down the challenge.
YOU SAID: Mohammed's religion is the STUNNINGLY PERFECT OPPOSITE of Christianity. The 23 year record of rec...
REPLY: If you mean Pauline Christianity, then I AGREE with you 100% that Islam is the stunning perfect opposite of Christianity. As you well know, Jesus (pbuh) NEVER EVER said in any chapter of your Bible that his religion is CHRISTIANITY! The word Christian was first used by the pagans in Antioch to call the first followers of Jesus (Acts 11:26). And as you well know, the first followers of Jesus called the Nazarenes NEVER EVER believed Jesus to be God or part of a triune God nor call their religion Christianity. Now let me compare Muhammeds belief with Jesus peace be upon them both. I will mention only THREE IDENTICAL teachings of Jesus (pbuh) and Muhammed (pbuh) vis-à-vis Paul and you decide who is IDENTIFICAL and OPPOSITE.
A GOD
- Jesus says ONE GOD: And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: Mark 12:29
- Muhammed (pbuh) says ONE GOD: Say: He is Allah, the One and Only; Quran 112:1
- Pauline Christian: the Father is God, the Son God, and the Holy Spirit God; and yet not three Gods but one God. So the Father is Lord, the Son Lord, and the Holy Spirit Lord; and yet not three Lords but one Lord. For like as we are compelled by Christian truth to acknowledge every Person by Himself to be both God and Lord; so are we forbidden by the catholic religion to say, there be three Gods or three Lords.. In other words, TRINITY, THREE-IN-ONE God. However, you explained this as ONE will NEVER EVER make it ONE. Worse, Jesus NEVER EVER preached this!
COMMENTARY: Jesus (pbuh) and Muhammed (pbuh) are IDENTICAL on the contrary Jesus and Paul OPPOSITE.
B SALVATION
- Jesus (pbuh) says you are saved by faith and works: keep the commandments. Matthew 19:17 and For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:20
- Muhammed (pbuh) says you are saved by faith and works: By (the Token of) Time (through the ages), Verily Man is in loss, Except such as have Faith, and do righteous deeds, and (join together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy.
- Pauline Christian says faith ONLY: That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. - Romans 10:9
COMMENTARY: Jesus (pbuh) and Muhammed (pbuh) are IDENTICAL on the contrary Jesus and Paul OPPOSITE.
C FOLLOWING THE LAW Circumcision and kosher
- Jesus (pbuh) says he did not come to destroy the Law: Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.. He was circumcised (Luke 1:59) and NEVER ATE pork as per the Law laid out in Deuteronomy 14:8 And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the cud, it is unclean unto you: ye shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcase.
- Muhammeds (pbuh) followers are well-known to be circumcised and would NEVER EVER ate pork like Jesus (pbuh).
- Pauline Chrisitians: Paul and all Pauline Christians like you abolished circumcision in 1 Corinthians 7:18: Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.. Paul allowed the eating of swine and since then every Christian meal is not complete without ham, pork, etc.
COMMENTARY: Jesus (pbuh) and Muhammed (pbuh) are IDENTICAL on the contrary Jesus and Paul OPPOSITE.
Therefore, your statement Mohammed's religion is the STUNNINGLY PERFECT OPPOSITE of Christianity. should be revised to Paul's religion of Christianity is the STUNNINGLY PERFECT OPPOSITE of Jesus(pbuh) religion.
In the hope, that you will work on your point-by-point rebuttal on my arguments that Jesus is NOT God, I am reproducing it here in case you hit again the wrong button in your keyboard and deleted my previous email to you:
