Alhamdulillah i'm a born muslim, raised within a family who look at life hereafter as the place to meet. I just like seeing our new brothers and sisters declaring their faith and see how Allah do His wonders onto His makhluk...Subhanallah...
"He it is Who has sent His messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth, that He make it victorious over every other religion, however much the idolaters may dislike".(Qur'an 61:9)
Masha Allah that is so true, there are so many reverting to Islam everday, Alhumdullila. Alahumdullila i am a revert myself and my dear friend was a Hindu now Masha Allah is now a revert. the truth is the truth, you can't deny it! Alhumdullila!
Masha Allah this converted brother looks so peaceful and clear-minded and he gave us all a good lesson in his story during college with his fellow muslim student Indeed Allah Guides Whomever He Wants
i know many muslims, even lived in egypt, and they are the most closest, loving, passionate people in the world. they would give u the shirt off their backs, even if yesterday you got into a fight with them. they dont hold grudges at all, but their passion does get them into trouble at times. they are proud people who wont let anybody trample on them or tell them what to do. they are very strongminded and stubborn.
As a Christian leader, many things have been taken out of context from God's Word and I have to put right the claims for those who might be doubting their faith. Jesus does not belong to Islam, He is the son of God belonging only to the Father. The claim that Ishmael is God's chosen is false, the claim that Allah and Yahweh are one in the same is false. Is God divided, is He having an identity crisis, has He keep Himself hidden? No. Salvation comes from Israel through Jesus Christ. I'm not here to argue, but if any of His sheep are here wondering if Jesus Christ is the Son of God, then I am here to tell you, brother/sister, the road to Hell is wide and easy, but Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. Keep running the race, fix your eyes on Him and rid yourself of anything that's hindering you. I love you, the truth will set you free.
I grew up in the Nation of Islam & am now a 5%er in the Nation of Gods & Gods & Earths. My grandfather was 1 of the first Hispanic ministers in the NOI. He joined a few years after Malcolm & a few years before Min. Farrakhan. I like to watch Orthodox Muslim videos, b.u.t. many times I get blocked from leaving comments instead of having a respectful disagreement. As-Salaam-Alaikum.
"I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE" Meaning oneness IN PURPOSE NOT THE SAME. start reading from chapter 23 onward and you will get the picture. According to the Bible, Jesus said," MY FATHER IS GREATER THAN I" " MY FATHER IS GREATER THAN ALL" " I OF MY OWN SELF CAN DO NOTHING." Do you believe God can say " I OF OWN SELF CAN DO NOTHING?" Also,Read the.1st KING 8:60, Isaiah 43:11 and 46:9. Just a thought.
I AM MY FATHER ARE ONE , MEANING I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE ..IT DOESNT SAY IN THE BIBLE ( " IN PURPOSE NOT THE SAME " ) YOU DONT UNDERSTAND THE TRINITY ..NEITHER DID MOHAMMAD ..JESUS IS GOD MY FRIEND ...FACT
Hell barry Johnson, Jesus is God? Really? Well, how come God fell down on the Ground and prayed to another God? Mark 14:35 35 And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. How do explain this!! Jesus (PBUH) was born of virgin Mary, made his mother impure for 40 days, and yes, he was circumcised on the eight day Job 25:4-6 4. How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman? 5. Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight. 6. How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm? 1 Timothy 2:5 5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. How come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I believe there's no One worthy of Worship except Allah (God), the One and Only God, the Creator of the Heavens and the Earths.I also believe in all God's prophets with no distinction. I believe in Jesus as a prophet, I believe in his virgin birth, and yes I believe he is the coming messiah. You have a good one
barry johnson , 'I and my Father are one", doesn't prove that Jesus is God. Unless you also concede that the following verses mean the Father, Jesus (PBUH) and the disciples are One? 21. that they may all be one; even as You, Father, {are} in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me. 22. I in them, and thou in me, that they may bee made perfect in one, and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me. SHOW ME WHERE IN THE BIBLE JESUS (PBUH) SAID I AM GOD, WORSHIP. It is not there!!!!!!
Mohamed Ishag What you are doing is trying to read the quran and The Bible as if there both true accounts of Jesus ..only one can be true . How do you decide the quran is true , it came too late after Jesus , and not even in the same place , people , culture or town ?????? Your also misunderstanding the whole point of Jesus ..He came to his own , fully God , fully man and without sin . This is the point ...God !!! came to his own . John 1.1 " In the beginning was the Word , and the Word was with God and the Word was God " If the quran is true ( which it is not , its the hand of satan himself ) how can you trust your god alah ?? Because if he made it appear as if it was Jesus on the cross , but switched him in place , then alah god is responsible for deceiving millions of people into Christianity ..how can you trust a god who deceives ..who is the god who deceives ??? SATAN !!! All your quotes from the Bible are mis quoted
"The guilty used to laugh at those who believed. And whenever they passed by them, used to wink at each other in mockery. And when they returned to their own people, they returned jesting. And whenever they saw them they would say: `They have gone astray.' But they had not been sent as keepers over them. But on this day the Believers will laugh at the Unbelievers." [Mutaffifeen, 83:29-34]. Qura'an
Recently also, Father Pecerillo, a famous Franciscan Archeologist, found from the Forth Century (200 years before Islam) houses in Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Palestine with this inscription in Arabic :"Bismi Allah al-Rahman al-Raheem" which means in Arabic "In the name of ALLAH, the Most Merciful and the Most Gracious", which again proves that His Holy name existed before Islam and it also proves the True Oneness of Allah Almighty and refutes Trinity.
"But the prophet who speaks a word presumptuously in My name which I have not commanded him to speak . . . that prophet shall die." Deuteronomy18:20 "I have fabricated things against God and have imputed to Him words which He has not spoken." MUHAMMAD Al-Tabari 6:111 "The gate is wide and the road is easy that leads to destruction, and there are many who take it. For the gate is narrow and the road is hard that leads to life, and there are few who find it" Matt.7:13-14,
Mahatma Gandhi, published 'Young India,'1924 I became more than ever convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days in the scheme of life. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of the Prophet the scrupulous regard for pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers, his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission. These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle.
Bible quotes Isaiah 21: 13 The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye travelling companies of Dedanim. 14 The habitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented with their bread him that fled. 15 For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. 16 For thus hath the LORD said unto me, Within a year, according to the years of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail:
Yes that's Arabic translation mistake but in English only. It is not in Urdu. In urdu we have separate word for both sky and paradise. There are 7 stages of hell and paradise. All of them with different category. Heavens mean sky in literal. In arabic it is used for word Jannat. So correct word for jannat is paradise.
Alhamdulliah ,Subhanallah Maasyaallah Allah is the greatest ,You have been guided to the tru path may Allah makes it easier for you to observe Islam and strengthen your faith, Amiin
Matthew 7:21-23 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'
@thisismymoniker I can only speak for myself and others that I personally know, but I have no desire to hurt others or commit crimes. Even when I was in some dark places in my life. Im curious about this "study" that you mention. Ironically, part of my happiness comes from helping others. I would like to see future generations prosper, and I would like to have something to do with that.
Like almost every major prophet before him, Muhammad fought shy of serving as the transmitter of Gods word sensing his own inadequacy. But the Angel commanded Read. So far as we know, Muhammad was unable to read or write, but he began to dictate those inspired words which would soon revolutionize a large segment of the earth: "There is one God"." James Michener in Islam: The Misunderstood Religion, Readers Digest, May 1955, pp. 68-70.
I say good luck with this islam convert. I am an ex moslem who now believes in Jesus. There are many paths to God, Do not judge others . each person has his or her own truth. No one should stand in the way of a person finding their path. To take the choice away from a person is a crime against God and humanity. God bless you all
You can also read the status of the woman here Paul's letter to corinthians chapter 11: But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. 5But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. 6For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
@Valanor1 Yes, please show your reference by the way because you are quoting John 14:6 from the last of the four Gospels. This Gospel is the most commonly quoted due to the fact that it has the most progressive form of Jesus. Do you know what else Jesus said? "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).
All I know is that is not about the laws (scriptures) but about the connection that us humans have with God. I was raised a Catholic and to be honest I actually never knew God. Now that Envagelicals preached the word of our Lord to be, I can thruthly say that I LOVE THE CREATOR. Only through Jesus , the son of God I have felt inner peace and a motive to live. And let's not forget about all the testimonies my dear brothers and sisters. Jesus lives and the end is near.
This dude reminds me of a Hari Krishna that confronted me at an airport in 1984. My hope for him is that he continues to question his faith, question what he believes and is clear on the BIG WHY, not just how. Religious dogma will always compromise one's walk in faith. We all need less religion_more spiritiality_ less dogma_ more love and understanding through a personal relationship with God. Its the only way for salvation and isn't that what we're all wanting?
Arabic is a human language, expressions in a language are not always directly translatable but alternate or equivalent expressions are usually close. All the verses I have produced come to a reliable concensus amongst translators. Muslim and non-Muslim, there are no glaring dissimilarities. The most unendearing portrayals are by usually by Sahih Bukari. In his own painstaking hadith collection. Even if you ignore the Hadith,the disordered chronological mess in the Quran is in defenceable

In addition to what kareemcheese says, it is also true that not everyone accepted the divine message. There were always rebels - also known as the infidels or Kuffar-not to be confused with those in a state of naive ignorance, but because they actively rebelled and resisted and fought against the believers. In fact, in the case of Hinduism, there are some theories out there that perhaps widely revered figures within the Hindus- such as Krishna- may well have been the Prophets of their day.
"Did you see how Allah created seven heavens, one above the other, and made in them the moon a light and the sun a lamp?" Qur'an, 78:12-13 If we count the number of layers cited in this source, we see that the atmosphere consists of exactly seven layers, just as stated in that verse. 1. Troposphere 2. Stratosphere 3. Ozonosphere 4. Mesosphere 5. Thermosphere 6. Ionosphere 7. Exosphere Lamp(sun) is not inside is the layers as you can read verse.
"Anyone who does not believe God has made Him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about His Son. And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son." 1 John 5:10-11
When God's help and victory have arrived and you have seen people entering God's religion in droves, then glorify your Lord's praise and ask His forgiveness. He is the Ever-Returning. (Qur'an, 110: 1-3) Islam is the fastest growing religion on Earth. --Carnegie Endowment for International Peace
contextual evidence means that you understand the meaning, the implication and the context of a revealed verse. The Qur'an is general as well as specific to cases that effect society. It is rigid in its fundamentals as well as dynamic in its secondary and tertiary issues that makes it relevant for all people and all places for all time. If there's one thing your palaver on this video page has shown, it is your lack of learning and your very shallow grasp of the issues you think you know about.
They say the Quran is like an ocean, it never ends there is always something to learn about it, some people read it 2 times and still learning from it, this man made a good choice a lot of people don't see the beauty of Islam they just think its all about hate my answer to that is thats just being ignorant and yes there is gonna be some violent quotes Islam allows military actions to certain limits.
Don't worry brother. Every become a true when they start to get mature. Only few years back I was as bad as non-muslim. I though Islam as non-sense. I never wanted to offer Salah. I alway lied to my parent that i have done it. But now i dont need reminder. But whenI grew more i studied Islam became more close to it. Thanks God i have studies Islamic History and miracles of Holy Quran. And life is getting better After beleiving in Allah and Muhammad as last messenger. May Allah guide us all.
@urheadonastick Do you know for instance this expression "Son of God" about people who do the will of God. Because it has been misunderstood by people following Paul, it wasn't used anymore. In the same way, you can read about Moses (Peace upon him) "You will be a god for Pharaon", god and not God. meaning a personn who follows the teachings of God. The action of Sol Invictus +Paul +Pagan roots provoked some misunderstanding of some expressions
Subhan-Allah ! May the Non-Believers Come Back 2 their Forgotten Roots ! Solution 4 the Whole of Mankind is only ISLAM(PEACE) ! Ameen ! having said that, i really don't care who believes it or hates it ! 4 those who Hates, i only can FEEL PITY & PRAY 2 the ALMIGHTY (ALLAH) ! MAY ALLAH BLESS THE WHOLE OF THE HUMANITY !n yup, b4 Putting any IDIOTIC comments on this topic, READ QURAN ! IT's not MANIPULATED like BIBLE & other books !...summa Ameen !
The Full Quote Is... But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded him to say, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, must be put to death." Deut 18:20 NIV P.S.: All prophets died according to Christianity.
We believe in Allah and that which is revealed unto us and that which was revealed unto Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the tribes, and that which was vouchsafed unto Moses and Jesus and the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and unto Him we have surrendered. Praise be to Him, we seek His help and His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Him from the evil of our own souls and from our bad deeds. Whomsoever Allah guides will never be led astray.
I am a Christian, and I am not here to fight nor argue with anybody. Just like this one islamic girl who was not able to walk for her whole life. So she asked her father " can allah heal me?" so her dad told her "if you go touch the holiest rock in mecca you will be healed" so when she touched it nothing happened. So she was in her dream she cried unto Jesus and said if you are truly the son of God, heal me. When she woke up she had gotten up and started to walk.
3 - Holy Qur'an Chapter 81 verse 27- 28 This is naught else than a reminder unto creation, Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight. Chapter 83 verse 17: And it will be said (unto them): This is that which ye used to deny. Chapter 83 verse 32: And when they(disbelievers) saw them(believers) they said: Lo! these have gone astray.
Well man a MOST SIMPLE Thing to say is (put in simple words) Moses (PBUH) was "...the truth and life..." in his age, Jesus(PBUH) in his age and he said Matthew 7:13-24 "You shall know them by their fruits" this means that he was not the last prophets but more were to come. Now it is the age of the Muhammad (PBUH). Read the Qur'an and decide for yourself what it teaches.
"All religions take care to silence or to execute those who question them...It has, however, been some time since Judaism and Christianity resorted openly to torture and censorship. Not only did Islam begin by condemning all doubters to eternal fire, but it still claims the right to do so in almost all of its dominions, and still preaches that these same dominions can and must be extended by war." - Christopher Hitchens, God is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything
This type of fable is quite common amongst Christians. At the end of the day it is Allah who guides to Islam, not the Kaba, not Muhammad, nor Jesus (Peace be upon them both).
@ljkuipo And eat this too: "When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets: then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her." (Deuteronomy 25:11-12)
@MistaCoolKid I heard your argument from a priest earlier. The priest told me that Jesus was so Humble that he never told he was the Son Of God. I laughted and replayed to him: "Thank you very much for your answer, that's all I wanted to know! I rest my case!!!"
Those who believe (in the Qur'an), and those who follow the Jewish, and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in God and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. (2.62)
i agree with you (; Islam is Islam and please don't judge Islam if you don't know anything about Islam and even a Muslim who very good on Islam knowledge are not be able to judge Islam because all Muslim knows that Islam is a right Religion and way of lives. and the word of God, we cannot change that in fact, we believe that the word of Allah is TRUE.
@claychipsmith You are right, i did that... I neglect all the religion and ask God. I ask him what is the religion that he wants me to embrace, Islam came along and I learned very fast because in Islam everything is explainable its clear as water.
What you are ready is what the prophet quoted from other radicals and he says that these people are false prophets and a Muslim must not listen to them, cut of limbs? In the Quran it says cut off a hand if somebody steals!
@claychipsmith Allah says in Quran that Allah gives guidance to anyone he wants to.And he chose to give you guidance so you are a lucky man Allah could have left you in the dark if he saw pure evil inside of you.... But there was something really good about your heart and thoughts that Allah chose to bless you. Good luck!
@ozone02 That's probably because it is basically more related to culture than to religion/the Book. Religion and geography are very closely related in general - food for thought, actually.
The verse closest to "Trinity" is the 1 John, chapter 5 verse no 7 "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Ghost; and these three are one." In the Revised Standard Version of the Bible (R.S.V.) revised by 32 Christian scholars of the highest eminence backed by 50 different co-operating denominations, this verse which is the keystone of the Christian faith has been removed as an interpolation, as a fabrication and as a concoction.
1 John 3:23-24 And this is His commandment: that we should believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment. And he that keepeth His commandments dwelleth in Him, and He in him. And hereby we know that He abideth in us: by the Spirit which He hath given us. Ephesians 2:8-9 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast. ===== saved by faith not works
@ljkuipo How about this one: "I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brethren; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I command him". Deuteronomy 18.18.
Us as mortal beings have no right to judge members on another religion in terms of their validity. In my view anything that teaches fundamental goodness and love is God's way to reach out to somebody personally or culturally. Christians and Muslims and anybody else have the same Word of goodness. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." That's my view. God is beautiful, and as a Christian I do not hold my religion higher than any others, I love Islam.
Glory to God most high, who is mighty to save, who spoke the universe into existence. The one who designed the infinite potential of my human soul and consciousness.
14:4 And We never sent a messenger save with the language of his folk, that he might make (the message) clear for them. Then Allah sendeth whom He will astray, and guideth whom He will. He is the Mighty, the Wise. 16:9 And unto Allah leads straight the Way, but there are ways that turn aside: if Allah had willed, He could have guided all of you. 2:6 As to those who reject Faith, it is the same to them whether thou warn them or do not warn them; they will not believe.
In [4:34] it says you are not permitted to transgress against them. [38:44] "Now, you shall travel the land and preach the message, to fulfill your pledge." We found him steadfast. What a good servant! He was a submitter. - Where do you get the vers beat up your women??? Bible about women: (Numeri 31:17)(1 Korinthiers 11:3-9)(Efeziers 5:22-23)(Exodus 20:17)(Prediker 7:26-28)(Genesis 3:16)(Numeri 30:6-8)(Deuteronomium 21:11-14)(1 Korinthiers 11:7)
The contrast between the life of Jesus and that of Muhammad could hardly be sharper. One never hurt anyone, preached love for all people and lived a life of moral restraint, while the other (according to Muslim historians) ordered the assassination of enemies and the beheading of captives, preached Allahs intense hatred for unbelievers, and spent his latter years wallowing in wives, sex slaves and wealth stolen in battle.
I wish and pray for this man because that man is brave , he must be facing aggression or force him to revert back to christian. his peace of mind will surely lead him to successful life. I know the world claims of its success in machines and technology but look what technology brings....destruction! of humanity. True Brother they forgot or else they even dont want to know.the ones who lay foundation of society of living together with Hindus(the mughals) the Jews(Ayyubid) and not just wipe out.
He looks like Stu the Dentist from the Hangover... Wait, if God has all the power, then why doesn't he/it have all the praise? Why would he/it tell angels to worship anything that is created? Why would God tell the angels to worship something that was created instead of the Creator like he supposedly does in the second Sura?
@thisismymoniker Your right. Religion is a "spiritual tradition". Thats the point. Traditions hold a society back, in that you keep doing the same thing over and over. You dont progress. Doing something just because you have done it for thousands of years is not good. You can also call it "being set in your ways". I feel its important to grow as a person, and traditions do not allow for that.
If someone criticizes my prophet, I'll check what he says first. Prophets are just human beings you know. The messenger is no more but a postman. All the glory is to God.
I dont necessarily know if i would qualify that as "English". the part where you said humans arent animals and that animals cant be compared to humans. could you maybe expand on that thought?
spittingcamel01 Well, He said that to the lost sheep of Israel; what happens to those who died before him? It is not intelligent or acceptable. But this is acceptable from the first man to last man and the most intelligent statement for a people who seek truth: "If anyone desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter, he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the Hellfire)." (Quran 3:85)
To each their own. Religion is a personal choice. I just hope that if this man decides to become an apostate that his life won't be threatened by other Muslims.
This is Clay Chip Smith -- the person being interviewed -- you can find my email and web site by looking in google. Inshaa'ALLAAH, contact me and we may chat, as you see fit.
@92amethyst Watched it. Here's what I learned: 1) Despite the strength of Islamic law, there is still homosexuality. 2) The woman was NOT obstructing justice, that's ludicrous. 3) Just because the man who was raped was also punished does NOT mean that Islamic law isn't barbaric and sexist against women. 4) I certainly hope that you're not implying that because she supposedly had an affair that her punishment was valid. Just go to Google and type in "Islam" and "Rape" and see what happens.
92amethyst This has nothing to do with "supporting" poor behavior. My argument is simply that people CAN control themselves, as evidenced by the vast majority of people who live in a modern, western society. Those who can not control themselves and commit acts of adultery, rape, or assault should be punished accordingly. The fundamental difference here is that you don't believe its POSSIBLE for a man to be human. And therefore, women must suffer as a result of man's potential for poor behavior
Note his description of Allah's attributes from 1:02 to 1:30. Why didn't he just become a Calvinist? At least that would have been better than taking the mark of the beast. Check out Walid Shoebat's video on the real meaning of the mark. Somebody finally nailed it.
Peace. This is Clay Chip Smith at 512-589-7148 -- call to chat more about this, if you wish. At one level, I like the clarity of Calvinism in its seeing ALLAAH as The All-Manager. Yet, Calvinism shrinks it sight of ALLAAH through its acceptance of the trinity and immanence. So, I consider Calvinism a "shirk", meaning a false religion. maashaa'ALLAAH
Clay Chip Smith You not only took the mark, Clay -- you willingly embraced it. How does it make you feel that nearly 300 Nigerian schoolgirls did so only at the point of the sword? Countless others have lost their lives - and worse - because they refused that mark, whether or not they knew swearing allegiance to Allah was the mark. God bless them . . . and He will. Shame on you Clay, in this life and the next. You flatter yourself if you think I would honor you with a phone call.
Wa'ilaikum Assalaam. May peace and blessings be upon you my brother in humanity.
@claychipsmith Masha'Allah, I pray that Allah guides continues to reveal the light of Islam to others who seek the truth. Ramadan Kareem, bro!
The harvest is near, the lines r being drawn... God knows what's in everyone's hearts!
Blessings.
I think your simplicity and in many ways an innocence which is evident makes you appear full of noor! [ translate cute!] Ramashan Mubarak!
Alhamdulillah i'm a born muslim, raised within a family who look at life hereafter as the place to meet. I just like seeing our new brothers and sisters declaring their faith and see how Allah do His wonders onto His makhluk...Subhanallah...
"He it is Who has sent His messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth, that He make it victorious over every other religion, however much the idolaters may dislike".(Qur'an 61:9)
Masha Allah that is so true, there are so many reverting to Islam everday, Alhumdullila.
Alahumdullila i am a revert myself and my dear friend was a Hindu now Masha Allah is now a revert.
the truth is the truth, you can't deny it! Alhumdullila!
Masha Allah this converted brother looks so peaceful and clear-minded
and he gave us all a good lesson in his story during college with his fellow muslim student
Indeed Allah Guides Whomever He Wants
i know many muslims, even lived in egypt, and they are the most closest, loving, passionate people in the world. they would give u the shirt off their backs, even if yesterday you got into a fight with them. they dont hold grudges at all, but their passion does get them into trouble at times. they are proud people who wont let anybody trample on them or tell them what to do. they are very strongminded and stubborn.
@claychipsmith Subhanallah!!! Did you enjoy Ramadan and how was your Eid? May Allah be pleased with you. Allahuakbar!!!
Brother Clay nice talk......(This is Imran from san Marcos)
Salam and Welcome bro. May Allah guide us all.
As a Christian leader, many things have been taken out of context from God's Word and I have to put right the claims for those who might be doubting their faith. Jesus does not belong to Islam, He is the son of God belonging only to the Father. The claim that Ishmael is God's chosen is false, the claim that Allah and Yahweh are one in the same is false. Is God divided, is He having an identity crisis, has He keep Himself hidden? No. Salvation comes from Israel through Jesus Christ. I'm not here to argue, but if any of His sheep are here wondering if Jesus Christ is the Son of God, then I am here to tell you, brother/sister, the road to Hell is wide and easy, but Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. Keep running the race, fix your eyes on Him and rid yourself of anything that's hindering you. I love you, the truth will set you free.

Happy Ramadan Bro
"I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE" Meaning oneness IN PURPOSE NOT THE SAME. start reading from chapter 23 onward and you will get the picture. According to the Bible, Jesus said," MY FATHER IS GREATER THAN I" " MY FATHER IS GREATER THAN ALL" " I OF MY OWN SELF CAN DO NOTHING." Do you believe God can say " I OF OWN SELF CAN DO NOTHING?" Also,Read the.1st KING 8:60, Isaiah 43:11 and 46:9. Just a thought.
I AM MY FATHER ARE ONE , MEANING I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE ..IT DOESNT SAY IN THE BIBLE ( " IN PURPOSE NOT THE SAME " ) YOU DONT UNDERSTAND THE TRINITY ..NEITHER DID MOHAMMAD ..JESUS IS GOD MY FRIEND ...FACT
Hell barry Johnson,
Jesus is God? Really?
Well, how come God fell down on the Ground and prayed to another God?
Mark 14:35
35 And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.
How do explain this!!
Jesus (PBUH) was born of virgin Mary, made his mother impure for 40 days, and yes, he was circumcised on the eight day
Job 25:4-6
4. How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?
5. Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.
6. How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
1 Timothy 2:5
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.
How come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I believe there's no One worthy of Worship except Allah (God), the One and Only God, the Creator of the Heavens and the Earths.I also believe in all God's prophets with no distinction.
I believe in Jesus as a prophet, I believe in his virgin birth, and yes I believe he is the coming messiah.
You have a good one
barry johnson ,
'I and my Father are one", doesn't prove that Jesus is God. Unless you also concede that the following verses mean the Father, Jesus (PBUH) and the disciples are One?
21. that they may all be one; even as You, Father, {are} in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.
22. I in them, and thou in me, that they may bee made perfect in one, and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
SHOW ME WHERE IN THE BIBLE JESUS (PBUH) SAID I AM GOD, WORSHIP. It is not there!!!!!!
Mohamed Ishag Masha Allah :) Jazak Allah Khayran
Mohamed Ishag What you are doing is trying to read the quran and The Bible as if there both true accounts of Jesus ..only one can be true . How do you decide the quran is true , it came too late after Jesus , and not even in the same place , people , culture or town ?????? Your also misunderstanding the whole point of Jesus ..He came to his own , fully God , fully man and without sin . This is the point ...God !!! came to his own . John 1.1 " In the beginning was the Word , and the Word was with God and the Word was God " If the quran is true ( which it is not , its the hand of satan himself ) how can you trust your god alah ?? Because if he made it appear as if it was Jesus on the cross , but switched him in place , then alah god is responsible for deceiving millions of people into Christianity ..how can you trust a god who deceives ..who is the god who deceives ??? SATAN !!! All your quotes from the Bible are mis quoted
"The guilty used to laugh at those who believed. And whenever they passed by them, used to wink at each other in mockery. And when they returned to their own people, they returned jesting. And whenever they saw them they would say: `They have gone astray.' But they had not been sent as keepers over them. But on this day the Believers will laugh at the Unbelievers." [Mutaffifeen, 83:29-34].

Recently also, Father Pecerillo, a famous Franciscan Archeologist, found from the Forth Century (200 years before Islam) houses in Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Palestine with this inscription in Arabic :"Bismi Allah al-Rahman al-Raheem" which means in Arabic "In the name of ALLAH, the Most Merciful and the Most Gracious", which again proves that His Holy name existed before Islam and it also proves the True Oneness of Allah Almighty and refutes Trinity.
"But the prophet who speaks a word presumptuously in My name which I have not commanded him to speak . . . that prophet shall die." Deuteronomy18:20

I became more than ever convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days in the scheme of life. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of the Prophet the scrupulous regard for pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers, his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission. These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle.
I know this convert. He was the president of the north lamar mosque. Slamalaykum brothas
Bible quotes Isaiah 21:
13 The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye travelling companies of Dedanim. 14 The habitants of the land of Tema brought water to him
that was thirsty, they prevented with their bread him that fled. 15 For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. 16 For thus hath the LORD said unto me, Within a year, according to the years of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail:

Pray tell what is the definition (of the english word) for G O D ?
SubhanALLAH. May ALLAH (SWT) Bless this guy with Jannah; Ameen.
what a nice guy he is, gods mercy will always seek such people.
Yes that's Arabic translation mistake but in English only. It is not in Urdu. In urdu we have separate word for both sky and paradise. There are 7 stages of hell and paradise. All of them with different category. Heavens mean sky in literal. In arabic it is used for word Jannat. So correct word for jannat is paradise.
"Fire insurance" HAHAHA!! Gold! xD
Great words, God bless him.
Alhamdulliah ,Subhanallah Maasyaallah
Allah is the greatest ,You have been guided to the tru path may Allah makes it easier for you to observe Islam and strengthen your faith, Amiin
Matthew 7:21-23
"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'
@thisismymoniker I can only speak for myself and others that I personally know, but I have no desire to hurt others or commit crimes. Even when I was in some dark places in my life. Im curious about this "study" that you mention. Ironically, part of my happiness comes from helping others. I would like to see future generations prosper, and I would like to have something to do with that.
Like almost every major prophet before him, Muhammad fought shy of serving as the transmitter of Gods word sensing his own inadequacy. But the Angel commanded Read. So far as we know, Muhammad was unable to read or write, but he began to dictate those inspired words which would soon revolutionize a large segment of the earth: "There is one God"."
James Michener in Islam: The Misunderstood Religion, Readers Digest, May 1955, pp. 68-70.
I say good luck with this islam convert. I am an ex moslem who now believes in Jesus. There are many paths to God, Do not judge others . each person has his or her own truth. No one should stand in the way of a person finding their path. To take the choice away from a person is a crime against God and humanity. God bless you all
Salam be with you Clay Clip.
You can also read the status of the woman here Paul's letter to corinthians chapter 11: But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.
5But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
6For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
@Valanor1 Yes, please show your reference by the way because you are quoting John 14:6 from the last of the four Gospels. This Gospel is the most commonly quoted due to the fact that it has the most progressive form of Jesus. Do you know what else Jesus said?
"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).
All I know is that is not about the laws (scriptures) but about the connection that us humans have with God. I was raised a Catholic and to be honest I actually never knew God. Now that Envagelicals preached the word of our Lord to be, I can thruthly say that I LOVE THE CREATOR. Only through Jesus , the son of God I have felt inner peace and a motive to live. And let's not forget about all the testimonies my dear brothers and sisters. Jesus lives and the end is near.
This dude reminds me of a Hari Krishna that confronted me at an airport in 1984. My hope for him is that he continues to question his faith, question what he believes and is clear on the BIG WHY, not just how. Religious dogma will always compromise one's walk in faith. We all need less religion_more spiritiality_ less dogma_ more love and understanding through a personal relationship with God. Its the only way for salvation and isn't that what we're all wanting?
it not just fact but it some thing that stirs in the heart.
Arabic is a human language, expressions in a language are not always directly translatable but alternate or equivalent expressions are usually close.
All the verses I have produced come to a reliable concensus amongst translators. Muslim and non-Muslim, there are no glaring dissimilarities.
The most unendearing portrayals are by usually by Sahih Bukari. In his own painstaking hadith collection.
Even if you ignore the Hadith,the disordered chronological mess in the Quran is in defenceable

In addition to what kareemcheese says, it is also true that not everyone accepted the divine message. There were always rebels - also known as the infidels or Kuffar-not to be confused with those in a state of naive ignorance, but because they actively rebelled and resisted and fought against the believers.
In fact, in the case of Hinduism, there are some theories out there that perhaps widely revered figures within the Hindus- such as Krishna- may well have been the Prophets of their day.
"Did you see how Allah created seven heavens, one above the other, and made in them the moon a light and the sun a lamp?" Qur'an, 78:12-13
If we count the number of layers cited in this source, we see that the atmosphere consists of exactly seven layers, just as stated in that verse.
1. Troposphere
2. Stratosphere
3. Ozonosphere
4. Mesosphere
5. Thermosphere
6. Ionosphere
7. Exosphere
Lamp(sun) is not inside is the layers as you can read verse.

contextual evidence means that you understand the meaning, the implication and the context of a revealed verse. The Qur'an is general as well as specific to cases that effect society. It is rigid in its fundamentals as well as dynamic in its secondary and tertiary issues that makes it relevant for all people and all places for all time. If there's one thing your palaver on this video page has shown, it is your lack of learning and your very shallow grasp of the issues you think you know about.
"this book is telling me a story - thats the way it is"
And right there is how the religious mind works....
know the truth and the truth shall set you free
Alhamdulillah, Congratulations and welcome to Islam brother.
They say the Quran is like an ocean, it never ends there is always something to learn about it, some people read it 2 times and still learning from it, this man made a good choice a lot of people don't see the beauty of Islam they just think its all about hate my answer to that is thats just being ignorant and yes there is gonna be some violent quotes Islam allows military actions to certain limits.
Don't worry brother. Every become a true when they start to get mature. Only few years back I was as bad as non-muslim. I though Islam as non-sense. I never wanted to offer Salah. I alway lied to my parent that i have done it. But now i dont need reminder. But whenI grew more i studied Islam became more close to it. Thanks God i have studies Islamic History and miracles of Holy Quran. And life is getting better After beleiving in Allah and Muhammad as last messenger. May Allah guide us all.
thank you kenara for that piece of information.
i always wondered how is the prophets father name abdalla if islam only came after he was born.
@urheadonastick Do you know for instance this expression "Son of God" about people who do the will of God. Because it has been misunderstood by people following Paul, it wasn't used anymore. In the same way, you can read about Moses (Peace upon him) "You will be a god for Pharaon", god and not God. meaning a personn who follows the teachings of God. The action of Sol Invictus +Paul +Pagan roots provoked some misunderstanding of some expressions
Subhan-Allah ! May the Non-Believers Come Back 2 their Forgotten Roots ! Solution 4 the Whole of Mankind is only ISLAM(PEACE) ! Ameen ! having said that, i really don't care who believes it or hates it ! 4 those who Hates, i only can FEEL PITY & PRAY 2 the ALMIGHTY (ALLAH) ! MAY ALLAH BLESS THE WHOLE OF THE HUMANITY !n yup, b4 Putting any IDIOTIC comments on this topic, READ QURAN ! IT's not MANIPULATED like BIBLE & other books !...summa Ameen !
The Full Quote Is...
But a prophet who presumes to speak in my
name anything I have not commanded him to
say, or a prophet who speaks in the name of
other gods, must be put to death." Deut 18:20
NIV
P.S.: All prophets died according to
Christianity.
We believe in Allah and that which is revealed unto us and that which was revealed unto Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the tribes, and that which was vouchsafed unto Moses and Jesus and the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and unto Him we have surrendered. Praise be to Him, we seek His help and His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Him from the evil of our own souls and from our bad deeds. Whomsoever Allah guides will never be led astray.
I am a Christian, and I am not here to fight nor argue with anybody. Just like this one islamic girl who was not able to walk for her whole life. So she asked her father " can allah heal me?" so her dad told her "if you go touch the holiest rock in mecca you will be healed" so when she touched it nothing happened. So she was in her dream she cried unto Jesus and said if you are truly the son of God, heal me. When she woke up she had gotten up and started to walk.
you guys can keep him: you deserve each other.
Allah blessed you brother
3 - Holy Qur'an Chapter 81 verse 27- 28
This is naught else than a reminder unto
creation, Unto whomsoever of you willeth to
walk straight.
Chapter 83 verse 17:
And it will be said (unto them): This is that
which ye used to deny.
Chapter 83 verse 32:
And when they(disbelievers) saw
them(believers) they said: Lo! these have
gone astray.
Well man a MOST SIMPLE Thing to say is (put in simple words) Moses (PBUH) was "...the truth and life..." in his age, Jesus(PBUH) in his age and he said Matthew 7:13-24 "You shall know them by their fruits" this means that he was not the last prophets but more were to come. Now it is the age of the Muhammad (PBUH). Read the Qur'an and decide for yourself what it teaches.
"All religions take care to silence or to execute those who question them...It has, however, been some time since Judaism and Christianity resorted openly to torture and censorship. Not only did Islam begin by condemning all doubters to eternal fire, but it still claims the right to do so in almost all of its dominions, and still preaches that these same dominions can and must be extended by war." - Christopher Hitchens, God is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything
This type of fable is quite common amongst Christians. At the end of the day it is Allah who guides to Islam, not the Kaba, not Muhammad, nor Jesus (Peace be upon them both).
ISLAM IS TRUTH ALLAH IS ONE .SUBKHANALLAH GOD BLESS YOU BRO
@ljkuipo And eat this too: "When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets: then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her." (Deuteronomy 25:11-12)
@MistaCoolKid I heard your argument from a priest earlier. The priest told me that Jesus was so Humble that he never told he was the Son Of God. I laughted and replayed to him: "Thank you very much for your answer, that's all I wanted to know! I rest my case!!!"
Those who believe (in the Qur'an), and those who follow the Jewish, and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in God and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. (2.62)
i agree with you (; Islam is Islam and please don't judge Islam if you don't know anything about Islam and even a Muslim who very good on Islam knowledge are not be able to judge Islam because all Muslim knows that Islam is a right Religion and way of lives. and the word of God, we cannot change that in fact, we believe that the word of Allah is TRUE.
@claychipsmith You are right, i did that... I neglect all the religion and ask God. I ask him what is the religion that he wants me to embrace, Islam came along and I learned very fast because in Islam everything is explainable its clear as water.
What you are ready is what the prophet quoted from other radicals and he says that these people are false prophets and a Muslim must not listen to them, cut of limbs? In the Quran it says cut off a hand if somebody steals!
@claychipsmith Allah says in Quran that Allah gives guidance to anyone he wants to.And he chose to give you guidance so you are a lucky man Allah could have left you in the dark if he saw pure evil inside of you.... But there was something really good about your heart and thoughts that Allah chose to bless you. Good luck!
@ozone02 That's probably because it is basically more related to culture than to religion/the Book. Religion and geography are very closely related in general - food for thought, actually.
@claychipsmith happy ramadan brother
The verse closest to "Trinity" is the 1 John, chapter 5 verse no 7 "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Ghost; and these three are one."
In the Revised Standard Version of the Bible (R.S.V.) revised by 32 Christian scholars of the highest eminence backed by 50 different co-operating denominations, this verse which is the keystone of the Christian faith has been removed as an interpolation, as a fabrication and as a concoction.
1 John 3:23-24
And this is His commandment: that we should believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment.
And he that keepeth His commandments dwelleth in Him, and He in him. And hereby we know that He abideth in us: by the Spirit which He hath given us.
Ephesians 2:8-9
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast.
=====
saved by faith not works
@ljkuipo How about this one:
"I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brethren; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I command him".
Deuteronomy 18.18.
How tragic. The poor man does not even know what the gospel is, and was even less in it.
Us as mortal beings have no right to judge members on another religion in terms of their validity. In my view anything that teaches fundamental goodness and love is God's way to reach out to somebody personally or culturally. Christians and Muslims and anybody else have the same Word of goodness. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." That's my view. God is beautiful, and as a Christian I do not hold my religion higher than any others, I love Islam.
Glory to God most high, who is mighty to save, who spoke the universe into existence. The one who designed the infinite potential of my human soul and consciousness.
14:4 And We never sent a messenger save with the language of his folk, that he might make (the message) clear for them. Then Allah sendeth whom He will astray, and guideth whom He will. He is the Mighty, the Wise.
16:9 And unto Allah leads straight the Way, but there are ways that turn aside: if Allah had willed, He could have guided all of you.
2:6 As to those who reject Faith, it is the same to them whether thou warn them or do not warn them; they will not believe.
@mohammadazami cannot argue with someone that speaks like a true prophet ( he knows everything).
In [4:34] it says you are not permitted to transgress against them.
[38:44] "Now, you shall travel the land and preach the message, to fulfill your pledge." We found him steadfast. What a good servant! He was a submitter.
- Where do you get the vers beat up your women???
Bible about women:
(Numeri 31:17)(1 Korinthiers 11:3-9)(Efeziers 5:22-23)(Exodus 20:17)(Prediker 7:26-28)(Genesis 3:16)(Numeri 30:6-8)(Deuteronomium 21:11-14)(1 Korinthiers 11:7)
The contrast between the life of Jesus and that of Muhammad could hardly be sharper. One never hurt anyone, preached love for all people and lived a life of moral restraint, while the other (according to Muslim historians) ordered the assassination of enemies and the beheading of captives, preached Allahs intense hatred for unbelievers, and spent his latter years wallowing in wives, sex slaves and wealth stolen in battle.
I wish and pray for this man because that man is brave , he must be facing aggression or force him to revert back to christian. his peace of mind will surely lead him to successful life.
I know the world claims of its success in machines and technology but look what technology brings....destruction! of humanity.
True Brother they forgot or else they even dont want to know.the ones who lay foundation of society of living together with Hindus(the mughals) the Jews(Ayyubid) and not just wipe out.
He looks like Stu the Dentist from the Hangover... Wait, if God has all the power, then why doesn't he/it have all the praise? Why would he/it tell angels to worship anything that is created? Why would God tell the angels to worship something that was created instead of the Creator like he supposedly does in the second Sura?
@thisismymoniker Your right. Religion is a "spiritual tradition". Thats the point. Traditions hold a society back, in that you keep doing the same thing over and over. You dont progress. Doing something just because you have done it for thousands of years is not good. You can also call it "being set in your ways". I feel its important to grow as a person, and traditions do not allow for that.
Thank you. I already believe in Jesus and respect him. However, denying Mohamed is inconceivable.
You are very forntunate brother to become muslim. You are trully the chosen person of Allah to follow the true path of Islam.
If someone criticizes my prophet, I'll check what he says first. Prophets are just human beings you know. The messenger is no more but a postman. All the glory is to God.
I dont necessarily know if i would qualify that as "English".
the part where you said humans arent animals and that animals cant be compared to humans.
could you maybe expand on that thought?
spittingcamel01
Well, He said that to the lost sheep of Israel; what happens to those who died before him? It is not intelligent or acceptable.
But this is acceptable from the first man to last man and the most intelligent statement for a people who seek truth:
"If anyone desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter, he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the Hellfire)." (Quran 3:85)
To each their own. Religion is a personal choice.
I just hope that if this man decides to become an apostate that his life won't be threatened by other Muslims.
This is Clay Chip Smith -- the person being interviewed -- you can find my email and web site by looking in google. Inshaa'ALLAAH, contact me and we may chat, as you see fit.
@92amethyst
Watched it. Here's what I learned:
1) Despite the strength of Islamic law, there is still homosexuality. 2) The woman was NOT obstructing justice, that's ludicrous. 3) Just because the man who was raped was also punished does NOT mean that Islamic law isn't barbaric and sexist against women. 4) I certainly hope that you're not implying that because she supposedly had an affair that her punishment was valid.
Just go to Google and type in "Islam" and "Rape" and see what happens.
92amethyst
This has nothing to do with "supporting" poor behavior. My argument is simply that people CAN control themselves, as evidenced by the vast majority of people who live in a modern, western society. Those who can not control themselves and commit acts of adultery, rape, or assault should be punished accordingly.
The fundamental difference here is that you don't believe its POSSIBLE for a man to be human. And therefore, women must suffer as a result of man's potential for poor behavior
Note his description of Allah's attributes from 1:02 to 1:30. Why didn't he just become a Calvinist? At least that would have been better than taking the mark of the beast. Check out Walid Shoebat's video on the real meaning of the mark. Somebody finally nailed it.
Peace. This is Clay Chip Smith at 512-589-7148 -- call to chat more about this, if you wish. At one level, I like the clarity of Calvinism in its seeing ALLAAH as The All-Manager. Yet, Calvinism shrinks it sight of ALLAAH through its acceptance of the trinity and immanence. So, I consider Calvinism a "shirk", meaning a false religion. maashaa'ALLAAH
Clay Chip Smith
You not only took the mark, Clay -- you willingly embraced it. How does it make you feel that nearly 300 Nigerian schoolgirls did so only at the point of the sword? Countless others have lost their lives - and worse - because they refused that mark, whether or not they knew swearing allegiance to Allah was the mark. God bless them . . . and He will.
Shame on you Clay, in this life and the next. You flatter yourself if you think I would honor you with a phone call.
This guy experienced something really profound. Give your ego a break and open your eyes dude.
Jesus is always there for you -i meant to say- and He loves you!
