Christians : Show me proof that Jesus him self said "I am god Worship me"?

Do Christians believe in Muhammad ?
Jesus had told his people, that a person will come who will lead the way, who will be the final messenger, and if i dont go, he will not be able to come. Jesus (PBUH) also said, that whatever god will tell him, he will speak it. In Islamic history, Allah had sent the angel [Gabriel (Jibraeel)] to Muhammad with the Qur'an and Muhammad did not know how to read or write, he was illiterate. But Jesus himself said that what ever god will tell him, he will speak. And by the power of Almighty Allah, Muhammad was reading the Qur'an, even though he was illiterate, Watch this ;

I'm not looking for a new religion, Im a proud muslim and have alot of knowledge on Islam, so if you have any questions, or contradictions or anything you wanna say, just answer this question. Go ahead make fun of the Qur'an, question it, but it is the true word of God (Allah). The bible has been changed many many times. If you guys call yourselves sChristians then why don't you follow the Orginal bible which God had sent to Jesus (PBUH). Jesus is also not god's son, If he was, Do you think God came down in human form, and had sex with a women and BAM, Jesus is his son ? Also, Jesus is not god, If he is god, Who made him ? People are gunna say, "Oh then who the heck made god" Well God is God, The Eternal, The most absolute. He is the one that has created the whole universe. If you guys say that Jesus is god's son, then look at Adam (PBUH) He has not father nor mother, why the heck dont you call him god ? I mean he was the first person on earth, the first prophet and was created by god, Why dont you call him god ? He never said to worship him and neither did Jesus. Im 14 years old and got alot of knowledge and can take you on in a debate, etc. so Bring it on what ever you have to say, Anything
:)
And instead of judging muslims by their actions, and what they do, Read the Qur'an. Because to understand a religion, you have to read the scriptures.
Say Allah he is one;
Allah the Eternal, Absolute;
He begets not, nor is He begotten;
And there is none like unto him.
Qur'an (112:1-4) (Purity Of Faith)
Smartalec02 : and which version is that ? like if you truley believe Jesus (PBUH) is the son of god, what was his fathers name ? just "Father" ? Do you think god actually came down in human form and you know... had jesus ? He him is a miracle. Adam (PBUH) you can say he is the son of god, He is just like Jesus (PBUH) he has not father. But Jesus (PBUH) had a mother. Adam (PBUH) did not. Why dont you say Adam is the son of god ?
gertystorrud : How can Jesus (PBUH) be god ?
God : the one Supreme Being, the creator and ruler of the universe.
Is Jesus the supreme being ? Is Jesus the creator of the whole world ? that means man can be god ? I my self can proclaim that im god, But I didn't create this world, Im not the ruler of the universe and neither is jesus. On the day of judgement, You think Jesus (PBUH) will come and destroy the world ? or will it be the true GOD ? who is the creator of all things, who is the ruler of the universe.
Ms : Jeanie Black :) : How can god have partners ? Can god not handle everything himself ? Something god has a created you think he needs his own creations help ? God does not have any partners. He would never use his own creations as a god. You think god said "I am god, so is jesus" ?
If god wanted his own creations to be a god with him, we would all be a god right now.
Krazyabouthim : You think jesus created you ? God is 1, not jesus. God is the creator, You think Jesus created us ? God is the source of life, You think Jesus a human being can be a source of life ? God is ever-living, Human's have to die one day, Jesus who is a human being, is going to have to die one day. How can a human, be alive for a billion years. Human's have to die one day, so does jesus, And I believe that he will come for his second coming into this world, not for the muslims, but to clear the misconceptions to the christians.
Please, dont get mad at me :)
im not trying to make fun, or critisize:(
Aluno do Espirito : for arguement #1 you claim that jesus said, he searches the minds and hearts therefor he is god. The question was , "show me proof that jesus him self said "I AM GOD WORSHIP ME". The quote you said, could mean anything. there is no where in the numerous bibles you guys have where it says jesus is god, worship him. Jesus cannot be god.
Mark 12:29
And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is One Lord. If Jesus said that, then how can you say Jesus is god ? He him self said, in the Qur'an 5:72
"O ! Children of Israel, Worship Allah, My Lord and your Lord"
Chrisitans pray like ; Kneeling down on to the floor, with there hands together, am i right ? well
Revelation 11:16
"And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God, on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God"
Look at how muslims pray, The bow their head down on the ground.
Matthew 26:39
"And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father"
^ Verse is talking about Jesus (PBUH)
2 Chronicles - 20:18
And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the Lord, worshipping the Lord"
for arguement #2
I agree with you, Jesus gave life and death when he put his right hand over their head, BUT it was only by God's permission that he had the powers like how he blew into a clay bird and the bird became real and flew away. He also brought the dead back to life, BUT by the permission of Allah.
If you say Jesus is god, then how come you guys don't fast in the month of Ramadan ?
Matthew 4:2
And when he had fasted fourty days and fourty nights..."
^ which talks about Jesus (PBUH) fasting.
Don't you obey your Lord, and does everything he says ? then how come you don't fast just like you "God" jesus did ?
Read the orginal Bible that Jesus had
Traveler :
Good point, Heres the story, If you would like to read the english translated version of the Qur'an then read
(Surah Maryam) The chapter of (Mary)
Chapter 19 of the Holy quran which explains how Jesus was born, and his whole life.
The angel Gabriel came to marry and said that she was going to have a son, mary replied back "How can I have a son when no man has touched me?" the angel said that it is god's wish, God can just say "Be!" and it will happen. The angel also told her from the time her son will be born, she would not speak and that her son would do all the talking for her. And when they came back to the town, she was quiet and would not speak cause the angel ordered her not to from god. But Jesus spoke while he was a baby, while he was about what, 2 hours old ? and said that
Qur'an - 19:30-31
"He said: "I am indeed a servent of Allah: He has given me revelation and made me a Prophet;"
"And he has blessed me wheresoever I be, and has enjoined on me Prayer and
Charity (Zakkat) as long as I live;"
Qur'an - 19:32-33
"He has mae me kind to my mother, and not so overbearing or miserable;"
"So peace is on me the day I was born, the day that I die, and the day that I shall be raised up to life (again)"!
Traveler : Why you shudn't belive in Muhammad ?
Well, when the angel came to him and told him to read the Qur'an he couldnt because he was illiterate, The bible says that a person shall come and speak god's words, Which was muhammad, who was illiterate but he was reciting the Quran. In the quran is says that "Drinking Alcohol is a sin, it can ruin your liver, kidney, and etc." But how did Muhammad know that it can ruin your kidney + liver and etc? LIKE he was illiterate, he didn't even know how to read nor write, but how did he know that Alcohol can ruin ur kidney and liver. Its not like he was a doctor. But this century, it was brought out by educated people "Alcohol destroys kidney and liver" How did muhammad know this 1400 years ago ?
It also says in the quran that the salty water and the sweet water of the 2 oceans will touch but never mix, now in this century, educated people had said that those 2 oceans will never mix even though there side by side. 1 is salty and 1 is sweet, but it will never mix and how in the quran it says that pearls and etc and be found in the bottom of the ocean, Muhammad said that to his people. But how did he know ? they didnt have equipment back them for them to go to the bottom of the ocean and check. But in this century they have found that pearls and jewels are found under the sea. How did Muhammad know this ? Its because the Quran is truely god's word. The bible has been changed numerous times, But there is only 1 quran, it has never been changed. not even a word.
Jesus him self use to fast just like us muslims
Matthew 4:2
And when he fasted for forty days and forty nights..."
^ the verse talks about Jesus (PBUH)
Example :
"I am going to nyc tomorrow"
There you go, you just didnt follow what the bible says
The bible says ; Say "God willing"
Muslims says ; "I am going to nyc tomorrow, Inshallah" Which is basically mandatory for us to say it. It is only god's wish if he decides that we will be going to nyc tomorrow or not, We should always say "God willing"
high way : THANKS :) and yea i knew that :p
People nowadays say "Hello"
Jesus use to say to his people "Peace be unto you"
Muslims say "Asalamwalaykum"
which means "Peace be unto you"
Luke - 24:36
"...Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you"
Luke - 20:21
"Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you"
If you believe that Jesus is god, and you have to follow what god says, why don't you say to people "Peace be unto you" ?
Also, Muhammad told his people to perform *The Hajj* (The pilgrimage)
where muslims go to mecca and perform their Hajj prayers.
Psalm - 84:6
"Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well"
Baca - - - Mecca
Psalm - 84:5
"Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee, whose heart is set on pilgrimage"
We muslims say "Inshallah" when we tend to do something in the future. Inshallah means "god willing"
James 4:15
"...say, if the Lord wills, we shall live, and do this or do that."
Do you guys say "God willing" ?

Thanks for your comment, And I hope my answer will not hurt or offend you in anyway, If anything in my answer hurts or offends you in any way either personally or to your religion, please let me know.
Well, I seen it on this video, Where in the bible it says how I shall put words into his mouth and he shall speak it. In Islamic term, The Qur'an was given to Muhammad by the angel (Gabriel [Jibraeel]). Unlike Jesus, Muhammad was illiterate. He could not read or write. When the angel came down with the Qur'an to Muhammad. The angel told Muhammad to read, but Muhammad said "I cannot, I am not literate" The angel told Muhammad 3 times to Read. But the third time, the angel told him to read, Muhammad started reciting the Qur'an, but how did he read it ? he was illiterate. Muhammad told his people from that the Qur'an says "Alcohol is a sin, and can ruin ur kidney and liver." Muhammad said this 1400 years ago, people this century have found out "Alcohol kills your liver"
To Godgirl83 :
How did muhammad know that alcohol would destroy your kidney and liver ? Was he a doctor ? He wasnt even educated, he was illiterate. He could not read nor write. But this is what it says in the Quran. I have more points which I can prove to you. Also, Jesus being God ; Ask yourself this question, If Jesus is god, Who made Jesus ? God - The creator, The ever-living, The source of life. Can Jesus be the creator of the universe ? Can a man like me be god ? Something God made, us humans, how can we be a partner of god ? Does God need help being God ? Does he need his own creation to help him be God ?

Jesus is the Son of God.
Allah is a fiction God, and a blasphemous version of the God of the Jews. Allah was invented in 627 AD, 627 years after Christ's birth.

Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, `Show us the Father'? [10] Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me?

Recognizing the Scriptural fact that Jesus is “a god” or “mighty one,” Jehovah’s Witnesses are not disturbed by John 20:28, where it is recorded that the apostle Thomas exclaimed to Jesus: “My Lord and my God!” For one thing, Thomas could have been using the word “God” like Manoah of old. (Judges 13:20-22) But even if this was not the case, there can be no confusion, for Jesus had recently sent a message to the apostles, stating: “I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.” (John 20:17; compare 2 Corinthians 1:3.) And John says he wrote down these details (including Thomas’ exclamation) “that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God.”—John 20:31. Jehovah’s Witnesses do not believe that Jesus was “God incarnate,” a “God-man,” according to the philosophical Incarnation theory of the “two natures,” human and divine. In line with the Bible, they believe “the Word became flesh.” (John 1:14) So doing, “he emptied himself” of his previous spiritual existence and became a man, “lower than angels,” so as to offer himself as “a corresponding ransom for all.” (Philippians 2:7, 8; Hebrews 2:9; 1 Timothy 2:6) The Trinitarian idea that “the redemption of man from sin and death is only then guaranteed if Christ is total God and total man” is unscriptural philosophy. To redeem what Adam lost for mankind, Jesus needed to sacrifice a perfect human life, no more, no less. (Exodus 21:23; 1 Corinthians 15:22, 45, 47; Romans 5:18, 19, RS, Catholic and Protestant editions; Matthew 20:28) This alone gives the lie to the Incarnation and Trinity dogmas. Why did Thomas exclaim when seeing the resurrected Jesus, “My Lord and my God!”? As already noted, Jesus is a god in the sense of being divine, but he is not the Father. Jesus had just told Mary Magdalene: “I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.” Remember, too, why John wrote his Gospel. Three verses after the account about Thomas, John explained that he wrote so that people “may believe that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God”—not that he is God.—John 20:17, 28, 31. Clearly, there are many gods. Some, as we have seen, are named in the Bible. Yet, people who saw Jehovah’s power long ago exclaimed: “Jehovah is the true God! Jehovah is the true God!” (1 Kings 18:39) Another god, however, also has power. The Bible says: “The god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not.”—2 Corinthians 4:4, King James Version.

There is only one God. This is the emphatic teaching of the Old Testament. The Jews were the people who knew their God if anyone did (John 4:22), and they had no concept of persons within the Godhead. In the book of Isaiah God makes some very strong statements which I believe do not allow for a Trinitarian understanding. In Isaiah 44:6 & 8 God makes the statement, "I am the first and I am the last, And there is no God besides Me . . . Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any." Could scripture be any plainer than this? In verse 24 he states, "I, the LORD, am the maker of all things, Stretching out the heavens by Myself And spreading out the earth all alone." If language means anything then "by Myself" and "alone" mean that there was no other person present. If God is not claiming that he is absolutely one here, then what stronger language would one suggest to convey this? Why would God be so emphatic about oneness, if in reality he were three persons? Would not these statements be misleading? In the next chapter he states, "I am the LORD, and there is no other; Besides Me there is no God. . . . That men may know from the rising to the setting of the sun That there is no one besides Me. I am the LORD, and there is no other, The One forming light and creating darkness, Causing well-being and creating calamity; I am the LORD who does all these" (Isa. 45:5-7). Once again, if God were really three persons, could he use such emphatic language as this? If we take this to be one of the members of the Trinity speaking here, would it be honest for him to say, "There is no one besides Me?" Would he not be forced to admit that there are indeed two other persons in the Godhead? In 46:9 God says, "Remember the former things long past, For I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like Me." In this statement, there is one person speaking (notice the singular pronouns) and that singular person says that there is no one like him. I do not see how it is possible to see a Trinity in these passages.
Surely the coming of Christ did not in any way compromise this strict Monotheism taught in the Old Testament. There is only one God. That God is our father. If Jesus is that God then Jesus is our father. As to his deity, Jesus Christ is God the Father. Isaiah 9:6 clearly calls him the Father. Some have argued that this should be translated "Father of Eternity," but not one major translation translates it that way. However, even if we adopt the translation "Father of Eternity" does that diminish the force? Jesus is called the Father. I Corinthians 8:6 tells us that, "to us there is but one God, the Father." There is no God outside of the Father. So in the sense that Jesus is that God, then Jesus is the Father. Malachi 2:10 asks the question "Have we not all one Father? hath not one God created us?" So we all have one Father, and our Father is God. The reason we call God our Father is because he created us. John 1:3, Colossians 1:16 and Hebrews 1:2 tell us that all things were created by Jesus, thereby making him our Father.
One reason that Jesus so often spoke of God in the third person is that he did not want to appear unto men as God, but he wanted to appear as a man just like one of us, as we read in Philippians 2:5-8, NIV:
5. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:
6. Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,
7. but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.
8. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death - even death on a cross!
In Matthew 28:19, Jesus commanded the disciples to baptize "in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." Yet they routinely baptized only in Jesus' name. Either they were mistaken, or they understood the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost to be Jesus. Surely the apostles didn't disobey their Lord!

I believe that Muhammad was a man. As I understand, the remains of Muhammad reside in a tomb in the Mosque of the Prophet in Medina?
And next to Muhammad's tomb is an empty tomb said to be for Jesus.
You can see the bible verses of the other respondents regarding how Jesus expressed Himself as God's son. Which should I believe in, the dead prophet or the One even your own religion says is alive?

Jesus never said that He was God. He said "The Father and I are One." He and God are one, together, for the same purpose, pure and perfect.
And CHRISTians believe in Christ. Not a god of another religion. God is our God, one and only, Holy and pure.
And no, God did not come down and have sex with Mary. In the scriptures it says that the holy spirit came down over her. The spirit placed Jesus in her womb.
And you are right, God is eternal, the most absolute. But God didn't tell us who made Him, he doesn't tell anything like that, because we aren't supposed to know. When we go to Heaven, we will know. He promises that we will.
And God made Adam from the dirt, and Eve from Adam's rib. They were created by God. Adam is not God because God is the only God. Adam was a man, flesh and blood, because he died. He sinned.

ARGUMENT 1)
1KINGS 8:39 >> "then hear in heaven Your dwelling place, and forgive, and act, and give to everyone according to all his ways, whose heart You know (for YOU ALONE know the hearts of all the sons of men)." ------ This is a prayer of Solomom to God.
Now let's compare with Jesus' own words: REV 2:23 >> "I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I AM HE WHO SEARCHES THE MINDS AND HEARTS. And I will give to each one of you according to your works." --- Well, if only God knows men's hearts (1kings 8:39) and if Jesus himself says he searches the minds and hearts, so Jesus said he is God.
ARGUMENT 2)
ISAIAH 48:12 >> "Listen to Me, O Jacob, And Israel, My called: I am He, I AM THE FIRST, AND I AM ALSO THE LAST." --- These are words of God YHWH. Now let's compare with Jesus' own words... REV 1:17-18 >>> "And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, 'Do not be afraid; I AM THE FIRST AND THE LAST'. I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death."

This was immediately after He was resurrected from the dead:
Mat 28:9
And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.
Keep in mind that the Koran was written hundreds of years AFTER the events of the Gospels, so of course it's going to take a poke at Christianity by saying that "Allah....begets not, nor is he begotten". It contradicts what is written in the Bible:
Jhn 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Jhn 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared [him].
Hbr 1:1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
Hbr 1:2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by [his] Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
Hbr 1:3 Who being the brightness of [his] glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
Hbr 1:4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
Hbr 1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
Hbr 1:6 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
Hbr 1:7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
Hbr 1:8 But unto the Son [he saith], Thy throne, O God, [is] for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness [is] the sceptre of thy kingdom.

First Jesus does not want to be worshiped. And it is written that:
Mark 13: 30-31 (New International Version)
Jesus said:
30I tell you the truth, this generation[e] will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 31Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
Now Jesus said this and how, if not God, could he say his word will never pass away? Jesus is God and is at the right hand of the Father, my Father.
take care.

This response is intended to answer your questions to the best of my ability and is in no way a personal attack on any person individuality. I will be answering as a Christian who believes in the Bible bing truth and I do not represent Christians as a whole group because Christians are a diverse group of people with many points of view.
I am a Christian and I believe that Muhammad existed as a person, but I don't believe that he was God's profit. Just as Muslims ( at least the ones that I know believe that Jesus existed but was not the Son of God.
I would like to know where you got your information on what Jesus said. Jesus Never said to his people, that a person will come who will lead the way, who will be the final messenger, and if i dont go, he will not be able to come. That is not in the English translations of the Bible that I have read. ( witch are NIV, KJV,NKJV,NLT, HCSB,The Message and ASB How ever there is a profit by the name of John who was the some age as Jesus and had followers at the same time that Jesus started to teach and John told his people11 "I baptize you with water for repentance,but the One who is coming after me is more powerful than I. I am not worthy to take off His sandals. He Himself will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. John was talking about Jesus in this verse That is Matthew 3:11in the Bible if you want to look it up.
Jesus did say that the Father (meaning God works through Him) in John 14:7-11
Jesus Reveals the Father
7 "If you know Me, you will also know My Father.From now on you do know Him and have seen Him."
8 "Lord," said Philip, "show us the Father, and that's enough for us."
9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been among you all this time without your knowing Me, Philip? The one who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? 10 Don't you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me? The words I speak to you I do not speak on My own. The Father who lives in Me does His works. 11 Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me. Otherwise, believe because of the works themselves.
Jesus was referring to God as the the father in this passage
Jesus was literate and could read and write. In the Bible John 8:6 Jesus was writing in the sand and He was called Rabbi and in Jewish culture men who attained the status of Rabbi were well educated and allowed to teach in the temples.
In the passage above John 14: 7-11 Jesus says that He and god are one and the same.
and here in John 8:54-58 Jesus states that is older then Abraham and states I AM (I AM is what God told Moses to say when people asked who had sent him)
54Jesus answered, "If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing;it is My Father who glorifies Me, of whom you say, 'He is our God';
55and you have not come to know Him,but I know Him; and if I say that I do not know Him, I will be a liar like you,but I do know Him and keep His word.
56"Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad."
57 So the Jews said to Him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?"
58Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am."
I as a Christian believe that Jesus is God and the son of God at the same time, God has three parts that are all God separately and all are God together and they are all one. In Geniuses God said "Let US make man in OUR image" and the book of John states The Deity of Jesus Christ
1In the beginning was (B)the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2He was in the beginning with God.
3All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.
4In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men.
5The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
Here "the word" is a reference to Jesus.
The way Jesus was conserved was by God speaking him in to the womb of a virgin.The fetus just appeared there. A small feat for the God who never begins or ends and spoke all of creation in to being.
Why do I believe this this? Because I know that God is real and I have found that Jesus works is beautiful and merciful for me. Please feel free to ask any thing else I would like to ask you More about your profit and when he walked the earth. Until then friend :)
