Is there a single learned Christian to clarify this, Please?
Hello, my dear Christians ..
As we know .. Mary " the Mother of Jesus " carried him for 9 months ..
Because the Holy Bible tells us in the gospel of Luke, chapter 2, verse 21;
(( And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb )) ..
Who was in his mother's womb?
Jesus the Christ ..
This is not my question ..
My question actually is a quotation from the Holy Bible itself ..
It is from the Book of Job, chapter 25, verse 4,
How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

36 AnswersReligion & Spirituality7 years agoChristians, I will give you another chance to answer?
Hi, dear Christians ..
I am greeting you by Shalom Alaikom ( exactly it is the same greeting that Jesus Christ PBUH used to greet his people ) .. Which means, peace be upon you ..
----
As we know, there are hundreds of prophecies in the Holy Bible ..
When we ( Muslims ) reason & argue with you about some of these prophecies , some of you reply that they referred to Jesus Christ PBUH ( without even looking at their contexts ) ..
By the way, a Christian brother asked me ( why do not Muslims glorify Jesus and honor him?)
He doesn't know that Jesus Christ is mentioned in the Quran 500% more than Muhammad's name ..
He thinks that we ignore the Christ .. Come on , we Muslims are asked by Muhammad PBUH ( that if Jesus Christ is mentioned ) to follow the words ( peace be upon him )
--------
Any way, there is a prophecy in the Old Testament which I asked (a month ago) and no one ( of those 14 Christians who answered ) could speak about it ..
They wrote comments about Muhammad, Muslims, terrorists and Islam ..
But no one gave his point of view about the prophecy ..
I don't know why ..
--------
Dear Christians ..
The Holy Bible tells us, in the Book of Isaiah, Chapter 29 verse 12.
(( And the book is delivered to "him" that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and "he" saith, I am not learned )) ..
And the question is absolutely clear,
Whom does this prophecy refer to?
Who is "him"?
Who is "he" ?

12 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoChristian? You must enlighten us, Please?
Hi dear Christians ..
Would you just enlighten us about the following verse ..
I would like to know, what do you believe about it ..
“At three o’clock, Jesus cried out in a loud voice, ‘Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?’ which is translated, ‘My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?’” (Mark 15:34; Matthew 27:46).
Now, the question is,
If Jesus is God, why did he let himself down?
--------------------
Note :
Please don't think that I am trying to drag down or lower the status of neither Jesus Christ nor the Holy Bible ..
No one can minimize the importance of Jesus and the Holy Bible ..
To those who aren't Christians ..
If you want to participate, you are welcome ..
But without insulting neither our dear Christians nor the Christianity ..
Please ..
11 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoOnly Christians , PLEASE, wasn't there something wrong?
Hi, my beloved dear Christians ..
I wish I could fight @-@ Oh sorry ..
I wish I could hug you all ..
There is an unclean point needed to be enlightened ..Please,
Jesus christ tells us in The Holy Bible,
Matthew 12:39
39He answered, "A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a miraculous sign! But none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.
Matthew 23:33
33"You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell?
Luke 11:40
40You foolish people! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also?
Matthew 16:23
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."
Luke 19:27
27But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them-bring them here and kill them in front of me."
-----------------------
Now, let us look at two verses from what the Noble Quran says about the Christ Jesus ..
Quran says:
Chapter 43: Verse 63
When Jesus came with Clear Signs, he said: "Now have I come to you with Wisdom, and in order to make clear to you some of the (points) on which ye dispute: therefore fear God and obey me.
Chapter 19: Verse 32
"(He) hath made me kind to my mother, and not overbearing or miserable;
According to the Bible, Jesus christ used to insult his people and even his disciples.
In contrast, the Quran indicates that The Messenger of God, Jesus was kind and wise in his behavior towards his people.
-----------------------
The question is,
Do not you think that there was something wrong with the new biblical language ?
Did Jesus Christ really say those words ? ( I mean their meaning in Aramaic ) ..
Or do you think that they were mistranslated ?
13 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoDid Jesus Christ claim to be God?
Hi dear Christians ,
Regarding to John 10:30, ( I and my father are 1 ) if we read the context, we would know what the Christ meant ..
Jesus Christ is not the enemy of the God almighty ..
They are not against each others ..
They are 1 in purpose ..
------------
And also the book of revelation, where Jesus says ( I am the first & the last ) ,
Again, if we read the context, we discover that He is the first Christ , no Christ before him ..
And he is the last Christ , no Christ will come after him ..
-------------------------
Now, the question is,
When you tell us that Jesus Christ is God,
where do you get this idea from?
Did Jesus claim to be God in the Holy Bible ?
Did he say ( I am God )?
Did he say ( worship me ) ?
9 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoChristian? Would you tell us your view about this, PLEASE?
Hi, dear Christians ..
You know, Islam is the only religion " beside Christianity " that if anyone wants to convert to, he must believe in Jesus Christ PBUH ..
Also, Jesus Christ is mentioned by name 25 times in The Noble Quran while Muhammad PBUH is only mentioned 5 times ..
The birth of the Christ is mentioned in the Quran in 2 places ..
There is a chapter in the Noble Quran called ( Mary ) ..
She is also mentioned by name 32 times ..
Her father is also mentioned and there is a chapter in his name ..
Her mother is also mentioned ..
On the other hand, we find that,
Muhammad is mentioned less than Jesus ( only 5 times while Jesus 25 times)..
Muhammad's birth is not mentioned ..
Muhammad's father is not mentioned ..
Muhammad's mother is not mentioned ..
Neither any of his wives or daughters are mentioned ..
----------
Now the question is,
according to your point of view,
If Muhammad is the author of the Quran, Why did Muhammad honor & promote Jesus Christ and his Noble Mother rather than himself & his family ?

9 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoIs there a single learned Christian who could clarify this PLEASE?
Christians?
A Muslim wants to fight.. So, Prepare for our battle today :) ..
Hello, my dear Christians , I wish I could hug you all ..
let us argue and reason about our case ..
As all of us know, the only case & the only real different between us is the divinity of Jesus the Christ, isn't it?
( the Christians' point of view )
>< You believe in the Holy Trinity, don't you?
The Father, the Son ( meaning Jesus ) and the Holy Ghost .. And These Three Are One .. Right?
Jesus is God and he is the Son of God .. Came to save people from their sins ..
* please correct me if I am wrong ..
( the Muslims' point of view)
>< Muslims believe in the Creator, you call Him the Father, as The Only One who is worthy to be worshipped as a God ..
Jesus is the Christ .. Jesus is the Word of the God almighty ..
Jesus is the Messenger of the God almighty ..
He isn't God, but SENT by the God almighty ..
--------------------
Ready !
please, I want you to have a look at these 5 biblical verses;
1* ( My Father is greater than I ) John 5:30 ..
2* ( For I did not speak of my own accord, but the Father who sent me commanded me what to say and how to say it ) John 12:49 ..
3* ( You heard that I said to you, I go away, and I will come to you. If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father; for the Father is greater than I ) (John 14:28) ..
4* ( I am the Lord: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images ) Isaiah 42:8
5* ( Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know ) Act 2:22 ..
-----------------------------
Now, the question is,
Doesn't these verses contradict your views?
If not, then please tell us, How?
16 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoNon-Muslims, if it was your decision, what would you choose, why .....?
If you want money, we will collect enough money for you so that you will be the richest one of us ..
if you want leadership, we will take you as our leader and never decide on any matter without your approval ..
If you want a kingdom, we will crown you king over us ..
If you want a wife, we will lead you to the most beautiful woman ..
-----
If it was your decision, you would not hesitate for a moment to choose (( Yes )) ..
Now, the question is,
In your point of view,
Why did Muhammad refuse all of these temptations when The Meccan Pagans offered these temptations and just forget about what he claimed ?
Why did he choose to suffer rather than the luxury life?
2 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoGod Almighty Himself is asking, Could you answer His question honestly?
Hi, dear friends ..
I tried to find a question " from my authority" that is worthy to be asked but I couldn't find any at the moment..
While I was reading the Noble Quran, I found a worthy one ..
God almighty "Allah in my language" asks the unbelievers, in the chapter 23, verse 115,
(( أَفَحَسِبْتُمْ أَنَّمَا خَلَقْنَاكُمْ عَبَثًا وَأَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْنَا لَا تُرْجَعُونَ ))
(( Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned? ))
Please, answer ..
3 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoHas any Christian focused on these verses before?
Hi, my dear Christians ..
You, who believe that there is a Creator, a God ..
There is a point needs to be clarified, please ..
---------
When Jesus Christ says in the Gospel of John, chapter 10, verse 30; that
" I and my Father are One "
Do you know that I, as a Muslim, agree with these words of the Christ ?
We Muslims believe that Jesus is the Messenger of God almighty, He had never lie ..
We believe that The Christ is not against God almighty ..
God almighty and all of His mighty Messengers are One .. No doubt ..
If you read its context, you would discovered that what the Christ meant was that He and God almighty are One in PURPOSE ..
But if you still believe that the Christ is God because he says ( I and my Father are One ), then have you heard about the following verses before?
Do you know that Jesus Christ has joint you to this oneness ?
He says that any Christian is God ..
He says, in the Gospel of John, chapter 17;
20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— 23 I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me." ..
If you read these verses the way you read the upper verse, so these verses mean that you are God ..
-------
Now, from your understanding of these verses, please tell us ..
How do you explain their meaning? Clarify please ..
Do these verses mean that any Christian is also God because Jesus says,
(( I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity )) ?
------
* NOTE, to those who aren't Christians ..
We are here not to fight each others or to offend each others ..

7 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoDear Christians, why did Jesus say that ,,, ?
Hello, my dear Christians
Jesus the Christ ( peace be upon him ) says in ( Matthew 7:21-23
7:21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven."
( On that day many will say to me;
‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name? )
Then Jesus reply in the next verse
( But I will reply, 'I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God's laws )
Now, dear Christians, here is the question,
Why did Jesus say that to you ?
Don't you think that he said because you called him Lord ?
Or you have your own understanding of the scriptures?
- we Muslims believe that Jesus the Christ wasn't God ,
But he was sent by God ,
I mean, Jesus the Christ was the Messenger of God ..
By the way,
Some of you might claim that Jesus was speaking about Muslims ..
I think all of you know that Muslims never say that Jesus the Christ is their lord ..
The only people who claim such thing are the Christians ,,
We muslims believe Jesus the Christ was sent by the God almighty ..
Please, focus on the question,
Why did Jesus say that to you ?
Clarify these verses to us, please ..
12 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoCould any Christian do me a favor and clarify this, PLEASE?
Hi, dear Christians ..
It is great that I have the chance to ask you about any point that needed to be clarified ..
And I am sure that you welcome my questions and you answer them honestly ..
No doubt, Christians are honest people ( in general ) ..
-------------------------
Here we go,
The last time I opened the Holy Bible, I read from the 1st John, chapter 4, verses 1 & 2 ; It says,
(( Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world, 1
Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God, 2 )) ..
In these verses, Jesus Christ peace be upon him is telling his people how to know the true from false ..
He used the words ( spirit & prophet ) as synonymous..
In other words,
False spirit is a false prophet & true spirit is a true prophet ..
-------------------
Now, the question is,
If you believe in John the Baptist " PBUH " that he was the last prophet of God almighty, then why did Jesus Christ " PBUH " tell his people & prophecy a prophet to come ?

10 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoChristians are strongly wanted to clarify this,?
Hi, dear Christians ..
I am so happy to have the chance to meet you ( my dear friends ) and ask you to clarify some points that are not clear to me ..
I am a Muslim and I have been in many Christian countries ..
In general, you are kind, respectful and helpful people ..
-----------------
Here we go,
The chief priests and Levites asked John the Baptist, "If you are not the Christ (Messiah), and not Elijah - are you THAT Prophet?" [Bible - John 1:20]
When the chief priests and Levites asked John the Baptist who he was, they asked him in a very strange way. First they questioned him as to whether or not he was the anticipated "Messiah" [Christ in Koine Greek]. He was not the "Messiah" that had hoped for. Next they asked if he was the prophet Elijah and again he tells them, "No." Now comes the really strange part. Finally, they asked him if he is "That Prophet?"
Are you Christ? - [No]
Are you Elijah? - [No]
Are you THAT Prophet? - [No]
----
Now, the question is,
According to your understanding & believes,
Who is ( that prophet ) ?
7 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoIs there a single learned Christian who can, PLEASE?
,Hello, My dear Christians ..
You believe that the Prophets were chosen by God almighty to teach & guide us to His way and to be best examples for us to follow, don't you?
We Muslims also do believe that Prophets are the best examples to follow ..
But I was shocked yesterday when I read the following verses from the Holy Bible that seemed strange;
It says in the book of exodus, chapter 32,
(( For whatever foolish reasons, the people gathered together and asked Aaron to "make us gods." Now Aaron was much too cautious for that! He collected gold from the people and fashioned a calf (Exodus 32:2-4). Then Aaron built an altar to the calf and proclaimed a feast "to the Lord" (Exodus 32:5). The actual Hebrew word Aaron used for “Lord” was “Jehovah”. You see, Aaron thought it best to continue to serve Jehovah God Almighty, but was willing to make a golden calf to represent Him because of the people's desire ))
-----------------
I can't imagine ..
We Muslims believe that Aaron was a prophet of God ..
Now, the question is, according to your churches & believes,
Do you think that Aaron was really a prophet of God? WHY ?
9 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoChristian? Would you PLEASE enlighten us?
Hi, my dear Christians ..
A moment of truth I need it from you ..
But first, I would like to tell you that I, as a Muslim, I believe in Jesus Christ ..
We are told to follow his name with ( peace be upon him ) as a form of all respect ..
Here are verses I quoted from the Holy Bible,
(( "And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent." John 17:3 ))
Here are others which speak about who is God,
1."Know therefore this day, and consider [it] in thine heart, that the LORD he [is] God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: [there is] none else." Deuteronomy 4:39.
2."Thou shalt have no other gods before me." Exodus 20:3
3."For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name [is] Jealous, [is] a jealous God:" Exodus 34:14
4."Ye [are] my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I [am] he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. I, [even] I, [am] the LORD; and beside me [there is] no savior." Isaiah 43:10-11.
---------------------
Now, the question is,
Have you heard about these verses before?
If yes, then please tell us,
Do you really believe that Jesus Christ was God or Sent By God?
14 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoThe Learned Christians, please clarify this?
Hi, dear Christians, I wish I could hug you ..
Oh, we are here in a spritual section not a romance :)
Here we go,
Jesus Christ ( peace be upon him ) says in the gospel of Matthew,
Matthew 6:9-15
(("This, then, is how you should pray:
" 'Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10your kingdom come,
your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
11Give us today our daily bread.
12Forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.[a]' 14For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.))
Now the questing is,
Have you heard about these verses before?
If yes, and according to your understanding,
Who is the One who forgives sins?
16 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoIs there a single learned Christian who can, PLEASE,?
Hello, My dear Christians ..

We Muslims also do believe that Prophets are the best examples to follow ..
But I was shocked yesterday when I read the following verses from the Holy Bible that seemed strange;
Genesis 19, verses 33-36,
33 That night they got their father to drink wine, and the older daughter went in and lay with him. He was not aware of it when she lay down or when she got up.
34 The next day the older daughter said to the younger, "Last night I lay with my father. Let's get him to drink wine again tonight, and you go in and lie with him so we can preserve our family line through our father." 35 So they got their father to drink wine that night also, and the younger daughter went and lay with him. Again he was not aware of it when she lay down or when she got up.
36 So both of Lot's daughters became pregnant by their father.
-----------------
I can't imagine ..
We Muslims believe that Lot was a prophet of God ..

Do you think that Lot was really a prophet of God?

Hi my dear Christians ..
Here is a quotation from the Holy Bible, Matthew , verses 22-27,
It says,
22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table .
-------------------
Jesus Christ ( peace be upon him ) says that he was sent unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel ..
Now the question is,
Has anyone of you heard that verse before?
If you do, please explain to me,
If Jesus the Christ is God, why he was sent only unto the lost sheep ( lost people ) of the Jews ?
And sorry, my dear Christians, now I got another question,
What can you understand when you read these 2 verses,
25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
