Your family is catholic ? I'm reverted too, and study semitic language, and reveals many christians scriptures errors, and wrong understanding of Jesus's religion and culture. Example, the name Emmanuel in latin, but in hebrew it's a A'in for first letter, and more, it's a i vowel on the A'in, thus غِمّ is the root and means "group of people, nation" and because the vowel i here it's an exercice, not a person or object, but a practize. Then came the morphem AN : I'mman means Totally, all, then came the morphem AL (or EL in latin) and it's not about God, but the Service for Him, AL means Servant, of God. I'mmanuel means that it is the "Practize which makes the Unity among Nations, toward Allah". Prophet Muhammad (saws) got this caracteristic. Emmanuel never meant "God with us".
inshallah. remember, you yourself are the best dawah for islam. if its for ur parents, friends or strangers. ur character and way of life will represent islam, inshallah.
you aint alone brother a Pinoy Catholic for 21 years a church goer and doing bible studies ,atheist for 10 years and now embracing islam i never prayed 5x a day before but now i do!
*what a mistake in the Qur'an!* Allah himself testifies that he has a son and he is the son as Christians understand it! Only the Koran writer was too ignorant to know what Son of God means! Allah's word which created everything is Allah himself too! *The Word Allahs which created everything is the Son of God according to Christianity!*
Son of God does not mean that God has a child in Christianity! *what a mistake in the Qur'an!* Son of God are 2 titles one referring to the Word of God = God himself and one referring to creation (humans, angels, demons)
Instructive. Some of the discussion seems weird. Muslims believe that JESUS was borne without any human father---- then if it is so,calling JESUS as son of GOD is ok. Muslims call JESUS a miracle of GOD and spirit of GOD. This word SON OF GOD means the same--- JESUS is spiritual son of GOD. So why to argue about the words and verbal expressions --- when fundamental faith is the same ---- that JESUS was a miracle--- born without any human father. Call it Miracle/Spirit of GOD------ or The son of GOD ----- saying the same,with different wordings.
@@atiqrahman7289 its not that hard really... just like Moses had his miracles namely pressing his hand under his arm and it glowed like sun and when he threw his staff it turned to a serpent So too was Jesus birth a miracle... along with his other miracles of curing the incurable etc. and proclaiming his prophethood as an infant
I'm a Christian, I love the Bible. Having said that, I have a lot of respect for Muslims. I met the great Afghan mujahideen leader Ahmad Shah Massoud while photographing the anti-Communist jihad in 1991 in Afghanistan, an amazing warrior and man. Never met anyone more honorable in my life.
Find the last interview of Michael Gorbachev of 10th February 2004 in which he clearly states that mastodon was our spy and he kept the sailing tunnel open for us. Although Alexander liakhovsky and Alexander mayorov (the soviet general in Afghanistan both have given clear proves that he was an hypocrite who wanted to split the Afghan people into different races to destroy the holy war in which he succeeded to a good point but finally Allah split him into peaces by his own Tajik brothers by the order of CIA.
If Christianity came from the God of Abraham, can you provide me one thing you believe and practice as in Christianity that is valid before the God and it stands before the God, that which could lead you to salvation, just one thing please????? Hint: Five pillars of Islam that Muslims practice day-in and day-out are valid before the God and they stand before the God.
My Dear,allah commanded you to read because the maps to deception are written in words,and all you will learn is what u read but Jesus said,Seek 1st the Kingdom of God,because what God can reveal to Us,can't fit on paper.And Just as Sure as I can't convince U that U are not the man U see in the Mirror,just as sure U can't convince me that What I spiritually experienced wasn't true.😌 I seemed that Kingdom and I perfect Love was revealed to Me in an atmosphere that isn't from this world.
I’ve always believed Islam is the greatest idea ever. Submitting yourself to the creator for a limited time for eternal bliss is something liberalism can never overcome . The limited, the finite will always lose to the infinite.
A big thanks brother Paul for bringing this to our attention, I enjoyed every minute of your lecture, as alwayes proud and honored to have you among the faithful.
I'm also appreciative of Paul's information and "challenge". I'm not Muslim so I might have a difficult journey ahead. May I welcome God's guidance and knowledge from both Muslims and Christians. Respectfully
Allahumma baarik. I've recently started a dawah stall, and Allah permitted me today to take my first shahadah (in Ramadan). Many thanks to brother Paul. I listen to your talks every morning in the car on the way to work, you're an inspiration, and i couldn't have done what i have without your input. Allah reward you too for the shahaadah taken today. Ameen
Ma'shaa'allah Alhamdulillah I was Born muslim but alhamdulillah the day u dear brother became a muslim Our Lord gave the muslims a great intellectual, inspirational, motivational gift of brotherhood to the muslims. allah guides whom He Wills. We are proud to refer to your as our inspirational brother. May the Lord grant you jannah. Thankyou
We don’t proclaim Trinity: We proclaim Jesus Christ the risen Lord and the coming King who would judge all the dead and the living. He is the very God of God Who revealed Himself as a Man so that we humans can be identified with him. Quran is absurd. Associating the name of a fallen man who lived hell on earth and will live hell in eternity due to his murdering nature with Almighty is a blasphemous.
@@Natuaralised_Can_Fin Oh look more illogical mental gymnastics. Jesus said one God multiple times, but he said the most important commandment is to love one God in Mark 12:28-31. It would have been a perfect opportunity for him to say, "worship me, I am God" but he didn't.
@@Natuaralised_Can_FinYou will be in a serious trouble if you meet God “the Creator of the heavens and the earth” with such a belief that you cannot justify to Him. May God guide you.
I am a Christian. Not of the traditional kind. I don’t believe the trinity. I have done much scriptural research and found not a iota of proof in the New Testament
Alhamdulillah, another great post Paul!! Many thanks 🙏. I reverted to Islam just over 2 years ago and ran into similar problems with Christian theology after confronting modern Biblical scholarship. May Allah Almighty reward all your efforts Brother. Ramadan Mubarak ☪️
You will surely find the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers [to be] the Jews and those who associate others with Allāh; and you will find the nearest of them in affection to the believers those who say, We are Christians. That is because among them are priests and monks and because they are not arrogant. And when they hear what has been revealed to the Messenger, you see their eyes overflowing with tears because of what they have recognized of the truth. They say, Our Lord, we have believed, so register us among the witnesses. [Quran 5:82-83] May Allah bless you Paul

@BloggingTheology Bible sholars challenged your Christian faith, but than you get into a newer, Abrahamic religion. Just to let you know, if the foundation is shaky, the building will fall. Check out the book, GOD: An Anatomy by Francesca Stravrakopoulou, & find out who the God of Abraham really is.
@@ShinobiShaman what exactly are you getting at ? After all if we were to read this book it would be another so called scholars opinion supported by their version of the truth. Why not seek the answers your looking for by humbly searching rather then trying to prove a certain narrative is the only way. Everyone is entitled to seek for themselves.
@fay4569 Call it what you want, but she has impeccable credentials. Besides that book, the Bible itself is full of contradictions. Another book to check out is, Biblical Errancy: A Reference Guide by C Dennis Mckinsey. It's 800 pages of Biblical contradictions. Again, if the foundation is shaky, the building will fall.
What I like and admire about Paul his sincerity , honesty and seriousness but above all that his profound love and passion for reading books God knows how much money he spent in buying all those books while many people now just don’t read in age of internet and social media

I have read the bible, the Quran,Buddhism, Hinduism.

You're close to the preaching and practice of Jesus of the Bible. Now it's time for you to get closer. God Almighty in His mercy and love for you had DESTINED that all this knowledge of the truth came to you. What you do after knowledge of the truth has come to you is up to you. You can choose to accept and acknowledge the truth or you can choose to deny the truth. Truth remains the truth whether or not you like it. One of the names of The Quran is The Reminder. God Almighty calls the people of the previous scriptures BACK to the straight path - the path which they have abandoned / forgotten / c0rrupted / no knowledge of. Do YOU realize that the ONLY people on the face of the earth who practice and uphold and preach and defend the doctrine and honor of Jesus OF THE BIBLE are the Muslim????? It's an amazing situation really. On each and every fundamental doctrine, Christianity (overwhelming) is AGAINST Jesus of their very own scriptures BUT the Muslim is calling the Christians to go by what Jesus precticed and preached. 🤗 👉 Jesus gave the Trinity-DESTROYING testimony that THE FATHER (SINGLE PERSON) IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD but the Christians (overwhelming) testify that the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit (The Trinity) is the true God. 👉 John 4:21-22 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, *WORSHIP THE FATHER* . Ye worship ye know not what: *WE* know what *WE WORSHIP* : for salvation is of the Jews. Have another look: *WE WORSHIP* (The J-E-W na-ti-on INCLUDING ME - Jesus) 👉 “And this is life eternal, that they might know *YOU THE ONLY TRUE GOD* , and Jesus Christ, whom *YOU* have sent.” John 17:3 👉 John 20:17: “Jesus saith unto her, ...I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and TO MY GOD, AND YOUR GOD.” Have another look! ".... *TO MY GOD and YOUR GOD* " ME and YOU 👉 *WE* *WE WORSHIP* THE ONLY TRUE GOD - THE FATHER who is THE GOD OF ME (Jesus) and YOU 👉 *OUR GOD* 👉 And Jesus answered him, THE FIRST OF ALL the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord *OUR GOD* is one Lord Mark 12:29 👉 Jesus teaches: “Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and *HIM ONLY* shalt thou serve” Luke 4:8. Notice the words: “HIM ONLY.” Jesus did not say “US only,” or “Him and I only.” How could he possibly i it more clear than that? Jesus told to worship ONLY THE FATHER - who is THE GOD of Jesus too. 👉 NEVER preached about Original Sin 👉 NEVER preached that for salvation, people needed to believe that Jesus died (will die) for their sins 👉 NEVER preached that the wages of sins is death 👉 PREACHED that for the forgiveness - NO payment needed, NO sacrifice of Jesus, NO Jesus paid for us 👉 PREACHED that just turn away in sincere repentance and the Merciful God forgives 👉 PREACHED adherence to the comprehensive Law Code as the path to salvation 👉 PREACHED that for certain transgression (like mur-der) on the Law Code, CAPITAL punishment - PUTTING the transgressors to DE ATH - needed to be administered 👉 PREACHED that his followers SHALL IN NO WAY ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN if they do not keep the comprehensive Law Code even better and moreso than the Scribes and the Pharisees 👉 DID NOT eat p.i.g 👉 FASTED and PREACHED FASTING 👉 Greeted with the phrase "peace be with you" 👉 Jesus was CIRCUMCISED. AN EVERLASTING COVENANT IN FLESH for the believers till the end of times 👉 PREACHED that his followers follow the comprehensive Law Code which the Scribes and the Pharisees tell people to follow - that includes oblution / washing of the hands and feet before worship or entering a place of worship Of course the term the Father in the Jewish context. NOT that God has a Son.
I invite you to Islam - the path preached by Jesus. It's Saul aka Paul the f3r0c10us w0lf in she-ep's clo-thi-ng whom Jesus wa-rn-ed about who derailed and corrupted the whole message. The Bible testifies. By the fruits ye shall know them. Thanks to Saul aka Paul of the Bible, the Christian FAITH h-e-a-p-s the gr-ea-te-st I-N-S-U-L-T-S on Jesus of the Bible. The Bible testifies. 1) Jesus: ✅ THE FATHER (SINGLE PERSON) IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD. John 17:3. (The Muslim agrees with Jesus) Christians: ❌ NO. The Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit (Triune-God / Godhead / The Trinity / One God in three persons or whatever you want to call it) is the true God. 2) Jesus: ✅NO payment needed, NO Jesus died for us. Just repent sincerely and the Merciful God (THE ONLY TRUE GOD - THE FATHER) forgives. (The Muslim agrees with Jesus) Christians: ❌ NO. Salvation comes by the blood of Jesus and his dying on the cross 3) Jesus: ✅ Keep the Laws and the commandments if you want eternal life (The Muslim agrees with Jesus) Christians: ❌ NO. Eternal life comes by faith in the sacrifice of Jesus 4) Jesus: ✅ Do NOT neglect even the smallest laws (The Muslim agrees with Jesus) Christians: ❌ NO. Those laws are unimportant 5) Jesus: ✅ I was sent ONLY for the lost sheep of Israel (The Muslim agrees with Jesus) Christians: ❌ NO. Jesus came for us all, Jesus came for all of mankind
Maybe you want to become a Muslim , Sister. Because how to worship God is objective not subjective , He wants you to worship Him the way He wants. How ? He sent a messenger ( Muhammad SAW ) to tell you exactly how we should worship Him , it's not wise to reject a messenger , because rejecting a messenger mean we reject God , we can't choose to believe in some and disbelieve in some , in fact , such person is described as the true disbelievers in the Quran . Surely those who deny Allah and His messengers and wish to make a distinction between Allah and His messengers, saying, “We believe in some and disbelieve in others,” desiring to forge a compromise, -Surah An-Nisāʾ, Ayah 150 they are indeed the true disbelievers. And We have prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating punishment. -Surah An-Nisāʾ, Ayah 151 The Children of Israel disbelieve in Jesus pbuh , do not fall into the same mistake 🙏 My sincere advice 🙏
"It is not the eyes that are blind, but the heart" Surah Al-Hajj (22:46). The one that wrote the book didn't see it but the one that read it. Maa Sha Allah brother Paul. Thank you for your videos.
always remember how the last messenger peace be upon him, used to turn to Allah SWT in moments of hardships. Pray for Palestinians to be helped and for Israelis to come to Islam ❤
It is written in the Quran that very few Jews believe. How many years is a human life? 60,70,80, let's say 100 years at most. Isn't 100 years such a short period of time compared to eternity and eternal life? Those cruel Jews who do not believe have this short time, their paradise is only this world. The paradise of believing Muslims is eternal life in paradise. A life whose end is hell, what can come from the pleasure of that life?A life whose end is heaven, what comes from the suffering of that life?
Wow I love personal videos form you Paul. Inshallah your Ramadan is going well. This channel inspired me to study theology more and my iman grew exponentially since then. Your channel is great
@@jooo7011No, Satan can't alter the Quran, because millions memorize the book and I'm in the process of memorizing it too. Humans may try to change the divine scriptures but the words of God never change.
@@jooo7011 Oh, yes, I have memorized this surah by heart, but the problem is that you did not quote the verses that follow it, which, on the contrary, demonstrate the lack of Satan’s interference in the Holy Quran.

@@jooo7011 We understand here that Satan's tasks have limits set by God Almighty in this test for mankind. Second: Satan cannot tempt the righteous servants of God whom God chooses. So what about distorting the word of God? He cannot distort God's words, otherwise there would be no righteous people to worship God.
I really admire Muslim convert brothers. Unlike Muslims by birth , including myself, they embraced Islam after deep research and thinking. Therefore, many of them possess great knowledge about both Islam and Christianity. May Allah bless all, particularly you bro William
It is absurd to convert to islam, especially as a yChristian. Islam is a man made parody of a religion and brought me to think critically about Christianity which is also man made. William must have had a psychological problem that he took the "shahada". The big problem is you cannot exit from islam later without the risk to be killed. So "stay away from islam" like apostate Prophet says.

Greetings Paul, I'm slowly learning to be open-minded to these challenges of the Christian faith. In fact, one Muslim on Blogging Theology has been challenging my understanding of Christianity for over 2 years. His challenges have made me cognizant of scriptures in the Gospels that I previously ignored. So now I'm more open-minded to listen. So i appreciate your honesty and the information from Jimmy Dunn's book. I simply need to allow God to guide me. As i mentioned earlier, I've been watching Blogging Theology for over 2 years. Although I'm a Christian believer, I'm also finding challenges to accept the Quran as God's last revelation. Regarding the Gospel of John, i do understand the difficulty and challenges that we face in acceptance of supposedly "developed" themes and beliefs. One thing that strikes me as difficult to understand ( assuming much of John's Gospel was "developed" and not historical ), is the acceptance of John's Gospel as authentic by the other apostles and followers of Jesus Christ. If some of the followers of Jesus were still alive when John wrote his Gospel, i would think that they would have strongly rejected his fictionalized stories about Jesus. What do you think? Because I'm no scholar of Christianity, I can't simply disregard the challenges regarding Jesus' identity and the authenticity of His teachings. ( I might even read Jimmy Dunn's book ! ). Personally, I think we need to explore the challenges honestly and without fear of doubts. Of course the challenges may influence some doubts, but we should place our trust in God the Creator. Also, we should not assume that neither the Synoptic Gospels nor John's Gospel were the totality of what Jesus said. Of course a comparison between the Gospels is important. Although somewhat ambiguous, we need to include a correlation between various titles given to Jesus, including the "Son of God", the "son of man", the "Lord", the "Prophet", etc. In the face of this challenge, should we Christians assume that rejection of Jesus' divinity will necessarily lead us to acceptance of islam ? As i mentioned earlier, acceptance of the Quran itself is also a challenge ( at least for me ). By the way, I'm happy to hear that you had no intention of attacking Christianity in this post. I think both Muslims and Christians need to be respectful. If we challenge each other's faith, let us consider the way we communicate. Are we respectful or condescending to others ? Do we project an attitude of "superiority" when we share our beliefs? If we are respectful, then i have no problem with a well-argued and persuasive challenge. Peace of God to all Muslims and Christians. May God's love challenge us to follow Him !!
As muslim i am impressed by your deep thinking if it was okay with i recommend muslim lantern and toward eternity when he spoke about miracles of quran in the language itself also with all due of respect i believe that james the brother of jesus was the closest one to practice the message of jesus peace upon him take you time and ask
Just follow your heart, brother. Do not follow that of which you have no knowledge. Do not follow blindly. Be careful, Islam that they are selling is fake just like Christianity is fake.
@@Adi_Bossanac I appreciate your advice. Why do you consider both Islam and Christianity as "fake"? I'm just curious. From my understanding, Jesus simply spoke the truth about God through teachings and parables. The parables of The Good Samaritan and The Prodigal Son don't sound "fake" to me. Respectfully...
@@johnbrzykcy3076 Because it teaches evil, that God is not good? It teaches that God ordered Abraham to slaughter his innocent son. The Zionists preach that God said to attack others just because they are different race or nation or too tall and when you do attack them unjustly God supposedly says to kill them all, the old, women, children, babies, and their animals. Then they preach to Christians that their God is a Jew and a Zionist and that he said "love your enemies/satans and pray for those who persecute you", turn the other cheek, dont even defend yourself, because the Zionists occupy and massacred the Christians too like in Russia, Ukraine, Germany, etc. It says Jesus turned to a woman and called her a dog. Jesus said whoever lives with a sword he would die by a sword....ITS A LIE, why would Jesus say that, its a stupid thing to say, many lived with weapons and died later of old age or sickness or accident... There is some truth in the Bible mixed with lies. Jesus turned to Peter and called him a satan. Is it not Peter/satan who established the church? It teaches blind following/worshiping the rabbis. Bible is fake, it was written 150 years ago, it says kill the Philistines (Palestinians) and then they invaded Palestine. We are all occupied and almost everything has become fake. Satans took over everything. You think these satans will allow true religion to spread? Only true god is the Truth/Justice...Goodness, and He/It is in the heart of a believer. I believe Eslaum, Goraun and true teachings of prophet Mohammed is the truth that we have today because it is same as my heart. I read as I believe, I dont believe because bunch of dudes came and told me this is what you have to believe. Eslaum is different than Islam. Real Mosslems are not allowed to even have a mosque anywhere in UN world. You can check Eslaum if you wish.
@@jooo7011 No such thing. And how is your question relevant here? if you are a Christian, I would have a lot of "Do you believe X in the Bible" questions for you
@@jooo7011 I know what you are referring to and I knkw my relgion (much more than you), there is no magical carpet, you don't know what you are talking about
@@jooo7011 If scientists discover everything in the universe, you can ask about flying carpets is real or not. Imagine that scientists (humans) invented the phone that you communicate with now, and they were just normal humans ? God is capable of everything, and if He says, “Be,” it will be. And when the God said { Glory be to the One Who took His servant ˹Muḥammad˺ by night from the Sacred Mosque to the Farthest Mosque whose surroundings We have blessed, so that We may show him some of Our signs. Indeed, He alone is the All-Hearing, All-Seeing }. We should believe it
Very interesting Sidi Paul, thank you. I did ask a Christian friend briefly about this and he said that his belief does not come from rational analysis and evidence but from personal revelation/religious experiences/ he has had that guided him towards Jesus. He said if his faith was determined by rational analysis he would not be Christian. Maybe that's why Christianity traditionally sees religion as being in conflict with science while Islam is complementary with science
I like your comments and I'm a Christian believer. However I don't see Christianity as being "in conflict with science". In fact, I believe that God Himself gave us the ability to do science! Regarding "rational analysis", it depends on how we view rationality. I myself have difficulty with some aspects of reasoning and thinking. But your Christian friend's personal experience in Christianity is valid. I can't refute another individual's experience/revelation. Personally, I think both reasoning and "revelation" can work together in being guided to the truth. But I think we have to be careful because sometimes our perception/mindset can be influenced by an experience which may or may not come from God. However, I am very reluctant to judge another person's experience. In fact, I'm often delighted by someone's positive and inspirational experience. By the way, I try to respect Muslims. And although I basically understand Paul's challenge on this post, I can't see a rejection of a Christian belief based upon the acceptance of a possible "development" of John's Gospel. I could be wrong. Respectfully from Florida USA
@@johnbrzykcy3076 Do you believe that The Father is THE GOD of the Son aka Jesus? John 20:17: “Jesus saith unto her, ...I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and TO MY GOD, AND YOUR GOD.” Have another look! ".... *TO MY GOD and YOUR GOD* " The Son aka Jesus testified: “For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father (my God and your God / our God) which sent me, HE (my God and your God / our God) gave me a COMMANDMENT, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that HIS (my God's and your God's / our God's) COMMANDMENT is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father (my God and your God / our God) said unto me, so I speak” John 12:49-50

Sir... I have followed your posts- in all faiths Christian, Hebrew, Moslem there is an element of cultural belonging, with a spiritual core, for many. I applaud your choice, and believe that each faith is truly based on exactly the same God.
Excellent analysis. It is strange that the author of the book still stuck to Christianity despite identifying the drastic change in language in gospel of John. Thank you for sharing.
I understand your comments and it also surprises me that the author remains a Christian believer. Although I'm also a Christian believer, I understand this challenge based upon Jimmy Dunn's book. And I appreciate Paul's ( of Blogging Theology ) honesty and respect ( he said he's not attacking Christianity ). I myself can't see this specific challenge as initiating a complete change in my Christian beliefs. But I do see the challenge as initiating the necessity for more study, more guidance from God, and even more respect for the beliefs of other people ( especially Muslims ). To be honest, although I've never read the Quran, I do perceive Islam itself as a "challenge". However I'm slowly learning about Islam. Peace of God to you and your family Respectfully from Florida USA

Allahumma Barik. This information is very important to share and what is knowledge worth if it is not shared? Jazak Allahu khair. There are so many people who need to hear this kind of truth so keep sharing it. It would be great if you make a part 2 in continuation to this video talking now about the crucial points of information that made you accept Islam.
Over 100 times more "Father" usage in John. That's stunning. The difference in speech of Jesus in the Gospel of John is so apparent. It never felt quite right, nor historical Thank you Paul
"The difference in speech of Jesus in the Gospel of John is so apparent"--- because the last gospel was written for a different audience and at a different time. The apostle John lived until c. 100 AD when most of the original first generation Christians had already passed away. Thus the apostle John was reiterating what the those first Christians had all believed, that is the divinity of Christ. "It never felt quite right" --- Indeed. "the superstition of the Ishmaelites which to this day prevails and keeps people in error, being a forerunner of the Antichrist... for a false prophet named Mohammed has appeared in their midst. This man, after having chanced upon the Old and New Testaments and likewise, it seems, having conversed with an Arian monk, devised his own heresy" (John of Damascus c. 680 AD) "false Christs and false prophets will appear ... See, I have told you in advance...So if they tell you, ‘There He is in the desert,’ do not go out" (Matthew 24)
@andrewferg8737 so much I could say here, and I truly wish the best for you. Remember ALLAH - the Glorious and Exalted - is One God can not be man and man cannot be God. Man cannot be woman and Woman cannot be man. Apples cannot be Oranges and Oranges cannot be Apples. ALLAH IN HIS MAJESTY IS THE MOST HIGH. HE DOES NOT BECOME BIRTHED IN WHAT IS BIOLOGICALLY NOT TOO DISSIMILAR FROM A DONKEY'S BIRTH. BECOME A HELPLESS BABY, ALL THE WHILE NEEDING TO USE THE BATHROOM. THE GRECO-CHRISTIAN HERESY IS THE ONE YOU SHOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT. I DONT BELIEVE IN GREEK JESUS. SO EITHER COME TO THE PURE RELIGION WHERE ALMIGHTY GOD IS FAR SUPERIOR TO HIS CREATION OR SAY HELLO TO YOUR HINDU COUSINS. PEACE.

In his teaching the islands will put their hope.” This is what God the Lord says-the Creator of the heavens, who stretches them out, who spreads out the earth with all that springs from it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it: “I, the Lord, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles, to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness. “I am the Lord; that is my name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols. See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you.” Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise from the ends of the earth, you who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, you islands, and all who live in them. Let the wilderness and its towns raise their voices; let the settlements where Kedar lives rejoice. Let the people of Sela sing for joy; let them shout from the mountaintops." Kedar(son of Ishmael) = Arabs Sela = mountain in Medina He will be an Arab, preaching in Medina, singing a new song aka reciting the Quran, He will be a light to the gentiles, meaning he is not only sent to the children of Israel. John 14:30 ► I will not say much more to you, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no hold over me, John 16 13 Howbeit when he, the Prophet Ahmet(Hebrew), is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.[14] He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
@@andrewferg8737 your response as to why the gospel of John is different does not help your trinitarian case one bit. By saying that John was written for a different audience hence the difference, you rightly proved that those anonymous folks who wrote the Gospels were motivated by their agendas to write stuff in their Gospels. Hence you have liars who added the ending of Mark to somehow prove the resurrection, or the forgery related to trinity that has been removed from new Bibles. The crucial point here is that a person has a distinctive style of speaking/ writing in a given time period and if that changes radically then one can be confident that that speech or writing is not from him. For instance, anyone familiar with Samuel Johnson's writing style would know immediately that Merchant of Venice or A Tale of Two Cities was written by someone else- but give him any random essay from The Rambler and he would know it's from Johnson.
@@LITTLE-ROCK "anonymous folks who wrote the Gospels" ??? The crucial flaw in of the anonymous gospel conjecture as formulated by postmodernist critical literary theorists is its lack of evidence. There exists not one example of attribution to any individual other than the traditional authors. "Mark having become the interpreter of Peter, wrote down accurately whatsoever he remembered... he accompanied Peter, who accommodated his instructions to the necessities, but with no intention of giving a regular narrative of the Lord's sayings... Matthew put together the oracles in the Hebrew language" (St. Papias, Exposition of the Oracles of the Lord, c.110 AD) "Matthew also issued a written Gospel among the Hebrews in their own dialect, while Peter and Paul were preaching at Rome... After their departure, Mark, the disciple and interpreter of Peter, did also hand down to us in writing what had been preached by Peter. Luke also, the companion of Paul, recorded in a book the Gospel preached by him. Afterwards, John, the disciple of the Lord, who also had leaned upon His breast, did himself publish a Gospel during his residence at Ephesus in Asia." (St. Irenaeus Against Heresies, 3.1, c.180 AD)
Dear Brother Paul, Ramadan Mubarak to you and your loved ones! Your content is incredible. I admire your ability to present complex topics clearly and unbiasedly, and your use of academic references is commendable. I'm curious, how many pages do you read per day on average? Any tips for scholarly learning about Islam and other subjects? Thank you for your amazing work. Looking forward to your future videos! May Allah bless you abundantly 🙏
Respectfully, brother Paul does seem to acknowledge the influence of other scholars. So Paul's content here is coming from other sources, including the book by Jimmy Dunn. I'm happy that Paul was not attacking Christianity. We need more respectful communication between Muslims and Christians. By the way, I also acknowledge the influence of various scholars. That's because I don't know it all. I'm a simple Christian believer. Peace of God to all Muslims and Christians.
Thank you brother Paul…..keep doing your very unique and interesting call to the truth (dawah). May Allah reward you in abundance and bless you with good health, happiness and harmony….Ameen 🤲🏻💚
May Allah (swt) bless you uncle paul , I have learnt so so much information from you deeply interesting , informative and intriguing videos , subhanallah !
They call it Spiritual Leader or something. Bare in mind, prophet in the Bible was not seen as a pristine sinless individual. They was tainted to make Jesus seems to be an exceptional case. Generally, prophet in the Bible are not seen as how Islam see the prophets. So they reluctantly group Jesus among the prophets and call by other names.
Unitarian Christians were the early Christians who did not believe or follow the trinity they only believed that Jesus was a son of God not God himself and believed God was 1 not 3 in 1
Unitarianism is a religious movement started around 200 years ago, they don't believe the Bible is the objective word of God and claim theology is tradition based. They also have no consistent view of who Jesus was, some might say he was a supernatural being like a demigod, and others might say he was just some enlightened teacher.
Many thanks, syukran Alham. dilillah. for having to add some knowledge about your reading experience, finding plus in depth study about Christianity, it has been mention vividly on Alquran about thier monumental disagreements and corruption.
I reverted too Alhamdulillah, and hope my parents will too 💙
Amin
Your family is catholic ? I'm reverted too, and study semitic language, and reveals many christians scriptures errors, and wrong understanding of Jesus's religion and culture. Example, the name Emmanuel in latin, but in hebrew it's a A'in for first letter, and more, it's a i vowel on the A'in, thus غِمّ is the root and means "group of people, nation" and because the vowel i here it's an exercice, not a person or object, but a practize. Then came the morphem AN : I'mman means Totally, all, then came the morphem AL (or EL in latin) and it's not about God, but the Service for Him, AL means Servant, of God. I'mmanuel means that it is the "Practize which makes the Unity among Nations, toward Allah". Prophet Muhammad (saws) got this caracteristic. Emmanuel never meant "God with us".
Ameen 🙏🏿

*what a mistake in the Qur'an!*
Allah himself testifies that he has a son and he is the son as Christians understand it! Only the Koran writer was too ignorant to know what Son of God means! Allah's word which created everything is Allah himself too! *The Word Allahs which created everything is the Son of God according to Christianity!*
Son of God does not mean that God has a child in Christianity!
*what a mistake in the Qur'an!*
Son of God are 2 titles one referring to the Word of God = God himself and one referring to creation (humans, angels, demons)
Masha Allah ❤️
Aamiin Allahumma Aamiin
In chaa allah
Thank you for sharing your journey, brother Paul
Many thanks!
Instructive. Some of the discussion seems weird. Muslims believe that JESUS was borne without any human father---- then if it is so,calling JESUS as son of GOD is ok. Muslims call JESUS a miracle of GOD and spirit of GOD. This word SON OF GOD means the same--- JESUS is spiritual son of GOD. So why to argue about the words and verbal expressions --- when fundamental faith is the same ---- that JESUS was a miracle--- born without any human father. Call it Miracle/Spirit of GOD------ or The son of GOD ----- saying the same,with different wordings.

I'm a Christian, I love the Bible. Having said that, I have a lot of respect for Muslims. I met the great Afghan mujahideen leader Ahmad Shah Massoud while photographing the anti-Communist jihad in 1991 in Afghanistan, an amazing warrior and man. Never met anyone more honorable in my life.
That must have been an amazing experience, Alhamdulillah ☝🏼
Find the last interview of Michael Gorbachev of 10th February 2004 in which he clearly states that mastodon was our spy and he kept the sailing tunnel open for us. Although Alexander liakhovsky and Alexander mayorov (the soviet general in Afghanistan both have given clear proves that he was an hypocrite who wanted to split the Afghan people into different races to destroy the holy war in which he succeeded to a good point but finally Allah split him into peaces by his own Tajik brothers by the order of CIA.
Correction: Mastodon = Masud and sailing= Saalang.
If Christianity came from the God of Abraham, can you provide me one thing you believe and practice as in Christianity that is valid before the God and it stands before the God, that which could lead you to salvation, just one thing please?????

I reverted to Islam 15 years ago now. The trinity makes 0 sense to me, and Christians use mental gymnastics to explain it every time.
We don’t proclaim Trinity: We proclaim Jesus Christ the risen Lord and the coming King who would judge all the dead and the living. He is the very God of God Who revealed Himself as a Man so that we humans can be identified with him. Quran is absurd. Associating the name of a fallen man who lived hell on earth and will live hell in eternity due to his murdering nature with Almighty is a blasphemous.
@@Natuaralised_Can_Fin Oh look more illogical mental gymnastics. Jesus said one God multiple times, but he said the most important commandment is to love one God in Mark 12:28-31. It would have been a perfect opportunity for him to say, "worship me, I am God" but he didn't.
@@dallasfish4682he never said “don’t worship me” and why did Jesus accept worship? Christ is king!
@@Natuaralised_Can_FinYou will be in a serious trouble if you meet God “the Creator of the heavens and the earth” with such a belief that you cannot justify to Him. May God guide you.
I am a Christian. Not of the traditional kind. I don’t believe the trinity. I have done much scriptural research and found not a iota of proof in the New Testament

You will surely find the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers [to be] the Jews and those who associate others with Allāh; and you will find the nearest of them in affection to the believers those who say, We are Christians. That is because among them are priests and monks and because they are not arrogant.
And when they hear what has been revealed to the Messenger, you see their eyes overflowing with tears because of what they have recognized of the truth. They say, Our Lord, we have believed, so register us among the witnesses.

@BloggingTheology Bible sholars challenged your Christian faith, but than you get into a newer, Abrahamic religion. Just to let you know, if the foundation is shaky, the building will fall. Check out the book, GOD: An Anatomy by Francesca Stravrakopoulou, & find out who the God of Abraham really is.
@@ShinobiShaman what exactly are you getting at ? After all if we were to read this book it would be another so called scholars opinion supported by their version of the truth.

You're close to the preaching and practice of Jesus of the Bible. Now it's time for you to get closer. God Almighty in His mercy and love for you had DESTINED that all this knowledge of the truth came to you. What you do after knowledge of the truth has come to you is up to you. You can choose to accept and acknowledge the truth or you can choose to deny the truth. Truth remains the truth whether or not you like it. One of the names of The Quran is The Reminder. God Almighty calls the people of the previous scriptures BACK to the straight path - the path which they have abandoned / forgotten / c0rrupted / no knowledge of.
Do YOU realize that the ONLY people on the face of the earth who practice and uphold and preach and defend the doctrine and honor of Jesus OF THE BIBLE are the Muslim?????
It's an amazing situation really. On each and every fundamental doctrine, Christianity (overwhelming) is AGAINST Jesus of their very own scriptures BUT the Muslim is calling the Christians to go by what Jesus precticed and preached. 🤗
👉 Jesus gave the Trinity-DESTROYING testimony that THE FATHER (SINGLE PERSON) IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD but the Christians (overwhelming) testify that the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit (The Trinity) is the true God.
👉 John 4:21-22
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, *WORSHIP THE FATHER* .
Ye worship ye know not what: *WE* know what *WE WORSHIP* : for salvation is of the Jews.
Have another look:
*WE WORSHIP*
(The J-E-W na-ti-on INCLUDING ME - Jesus)
👉 “And this is life eternal, that they might know *YOU THE ONLY TRUE GOD* , and Jesus Christ, whom *YOU* have sent.”
John 17:3
👉 John 20:17: “Jesus saith unto her, ...I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and TO MY GOD, AND YOUR GOD.”
Have another look!
".... *TO MY GOD and YOUR GOD* "
ME and YOU 👉 *WE*
*WE WORSHIP*
THE ONLY TRUE GOD - THE FATHER who is THE GOD OF ME (Jesus) and YOU 👉 *OUR GOD*
👉 And Jesus answered him, THE FIRST OF ALL the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord *OUR GOD* is one Lord
Mark 12:29
👉 Jesus teaches: “Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and *HIM ONLY* shalt thou serve” Luke 4:8. Notice the words: “HIM ONLY.” Jesus did not say “US only,” or “Him and I only.” How could he possibly i it more clear than that? Jesus told to worship ONLY THE FATHER - who is THE GOD of Jesus too.
👉 NEVER preached about Original Sin
👉 NEVER preached that for salvation, people needed to believe that Jesus died (will die) for their sins
👉 NEVER preached that the wages of sins is death
👉 PREACHED that for the forgiveness - NO payment needed, NO sacrifice of Jesus, NO Jesus paid for us
👉 PREACHED that just turn away in sincere repentance and the Merciful God forgives
👉 PREACHED adherence to the comprehensive Law Code as the path to salvation
👉 PREACHED that for certain transgression (like mur-der) on the Law Code, CAPITAL punishment - PUTTING the transgressors to DE ATH - needed to be administered
👉 PREACHED that his followers SHALL IN NO WAY ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN if they do not keep the comprehensive Law Code even better and moreso than the Scribes and the Pharisees
👉 DID NOT eat p.i.g
👉 FASTED and PREACHED FASTING
👉 Greeted with the phrase "peace be with you"
👉 Jesus was CIRCUMCISED. AN EVERLASTING COVENANT IN FLESH for the believers till the end of times
👉 PREACHED that his followers follow the comprehensive Law Code which the Scribes and the Pharisees tell people to follow - that includes oblution / washing of the hands and feet before worship or entering a place of worship
Of course the term the Father in the Jewish context. NOT that God has a Son.
I invite you to Islam - the path preached by Jesus. It's Saul aka Paul the f3r0c10us w0lf in she-ep's clo-thi-ng whom Jesus wa-rn-ed about who derailed and corrupted the whole message. The Bible testifies.
By the fruits ye shall know them.
Thanks to Saul aka Paul of the Bible, the Christian FAITH h-e-a-p-s the gr-ea-te-st I-N-S-U-L-T-S on Jesus of the Bible. The Bible testifies.
1)
Jesus: ✅ THE FATHER (SINGLE PERSON) IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD. John 17:3.
(The Muslim agrees with Jesus)
Christians: ❌ NO. The Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit (Triune-God / Godhead / The Trinity / One God in three persons or whatever you want to call it) is the true God.
2)
Jesus: ✅NO payment needed, NO Jesus died for us. Just repent sincerely and the Merciful God (THE ONLY TRUE GOD - THE FATHER) forgives.
(The Muslim agrees with Jesus)
Christians: ❌ NO. Salvation comes by the blood of Jesus and his dying on the cross
3)
Jesus: ✅ Keep the Laws and the commandments if you want eternal life
(The Muslim agrees with Jesus)
Christians: ❌ NO. Eternal life comes by faith in the sacrifice of Jesus
4)
Jesus: ✅ Do NOT neglect even the smallest laws
(The Muslim agrees with Jesus)
Christians: ❌ NO. Those laws are unimportant
5)
Jesus: ✅ I was sent ONLY for the lost sheep of Israel
(The Muslim agrees with Jesus)
Christians: ❌ NO. Jesus came for us all, Jesus came for all of mankind
If you think Muslims are doing the right way why don't you choose that way? Don't miss the opportunity. May be the next minute is not yours.
Are we going to witness your testimony of faith in Islam ( Shahada ) soon ?!...
Maybe you want to become a Muslim , Sister.
Because how to worship God is objective not subjective , He wants you to worship Him the way He wants.
How ? He sent a messenger ( Muhammad SAW ) to tell you exactly how we should worship Him , it's not wise to reject a messenger , because rejecting a messenger mean we reject God , we can't choose to believe in some and disbelieve in some , in fact , such person is described as the true disbelievers in the Quran .
Surely those who deny Allah and His messengers and wish to make a distinction between Allah and His messengers, saying, “We believe in some and disbelieve in others,” desiring to forge a compromise,
-Surah An-Nisāʾ, Ayah 150
they are indeed the true disbelievers. And We have prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating punishment.
-Surah An-Nisāʾ, Ayah 151
The Children of Israel disbelieve in Jesus pbuh , do not fall into the same mistake 🙏

It is written in the Quran that very few Jews believe. How many years is a human life? 60,70,80, let's say 100 years at most. Isn't 100 years such a short period of time compared to eternity and eternal life? Those cruel Jews who do not believe have this short time, their paradise is only this world. The paradise of believing Muslims is eternal life in paradise. A life whose end is hell, what can come from the pleasure of that life?A life whose end is heaven, what comes from the suffering of that life?

It is absurd to convert to islam, especially as a yChristian. Islam is a man made parody of a religion and brought me to think critically about Christianity which is also man made. William must have had a psychological problem that he took the "shahada". The big problem is you cannot exit from islam later without the risk to be killed. So "stay away from islam" like apostate Prophet says.

Greetings Paul,
I'm slowly learning to be open-minded to these challenges of the Christian faith. In fact, one Muslim on Blogging Theology has been challenging my understanding of Christianity for over 2 years. His challenges have made me cognizant of scriptures in the Gospels that I previously ignored. So now I'm more open-minded to listen.
So i appreciate your honesty and the information from Jimmy Dunn's book.
I simply need to allow God to guide me. As i mentioned earlier, I've been watching Blogging Theology for over 2 years.
Although I'm a Christian believer, I'm also finding challenges to accept the Quran as God's last revelation.
Regarding the Gospel of John, i do understand the difficulty and challenges that we face in acceptance of supposedly "developed" themes and beliefs. One thing that strikes me as difficult to understand ( assuming much of John's Gospel was "developed" and not historical ), is the acceptance of John's Gospel as authentic by the other apostles and followers of Jesus Christ. If some of the followers of Jesus were still alive when John wrote his Gospel, i would think that they would have strongly rejected his fictionalized stories about Jesus. What do you think?
Because I'm no scholar of Christianity, I can't simply disregard the challenges regarding Jesus' identity and the authenticity of His teachings. ( I might even read Jimmy Dunn's book ! ).
Personally, I think we need to explore the challenges honestly and without fear of doubts. Of course the challenges may influence some doubts, but we should place our trust in God the Creator.
Also, we should not assume that neither the Synoptic Gospels nor John's Gospel were the totality of what Jesus said. Of course a comparison between the Gospels is important. Although somewhat ambiguous, we need to include a correlation between various titles given to Jesus, including the "Son of God", the "son of man", the "Lord", the "Prophet", etc.
In the face of this challenge, should we Christians assume that rejection of Jesus' divinity will necessarily lead us to acceptance of islam ? As i mentioned earlier, acceptance of the Quran itself is also a challenge ( at least for me ).
By the way, I'm happy to hear that you had no intention of attacking Christianity in this post. I think both Muslims and Christians need to be respectful. If we challenge each other's faith, let us consider the way we communicate. Are we respectful or condescending to others ? Do we project an attitude of "superiority" when we share our beliefs?
If we are respectful, then i have no problem with a well-argued and persuasive challenge.
Peace of God to all Muslims and Christians. May God's love challenge us to follow Him !!
As muslim i am impressed by your deep thinking if it was okay with i recommend muslim lantern and toward eternity when he spoke about miracles of quran in the language itself also with all due of respect i believe that james the brother of jesus was the closest one to practice the message of jesus peace upon him take you time and ask
Brother, do comparative study between the Bible and the Qur'an. You learn yourself.❤
Just follow your heart, brother. Do not follow that of which you have no knowledge. Do not follow blindly. Be careful, Islam that they are selling is fake just like Christianity is fake.
@@Adi_Bossanac I appreciate your advice. Why do you consider both Islam and Christianity as "fake"? I'm just curious.
From my understanding, Jesus simply spoke the truth about God through teachings and parables. The parables of The Good Samaritan and The Prodigal Son don't sound "fake" to me.
Respectfully...
@@johnbrzykcy3076 Because it teaches evil, that God is not good? It teaches that God ordered Abraham to slaughter his innocent son. The Zionists preach that God said to attack others just because they are different race or nation or too tall and when you do attack them unjustly God supposedly says to kill them all, the old, women, children, babies, and their animals. Then they preach to Christians that their God is a Jew and a Zionist and that he said "love your enemies/satans and pray for those who persecute you", turn the other cheek, dont even defend yourself, because the Zionists occupy and massacred the Christians too like in Russia, Ukraine, Germany, etc. It says Jesus turned to a woman and called her a dog. Jesus said whoever lives with a sword he would die by a sword....ITS A LIE, why would Jesus say that, its a stupid thing to say, many lived with weapons and died later of old age or sickness or accident...
There is some truth in the Bible mixed with lies. Jesus turned to Peter and called him a satan. Is it not Peter/satan who established the church?
It teaches blind following/worshiping the rabbis.
Bible is fake, it was written 150 years ago, it says kill the Philistines (Palestinians) and then they invaded Palestine.
We are all occupied and almost everything has become fake. Satans took over everything. You think these satans will allow true religion to spread?
Only true god is the Truth/Justice...Goodness, and He/It is in the heart of a believer.
I believe Eslaum, Goraun and true teachings of prophet Mohammed is the truth that we have today because it is same as my heart.
I read as I believe, I dont believe because bunch of dudes came and told me this is what you have to believe.
Eslaum is different than Islam. Real Mosslems are not allowed to even have a mosque anywhere in UN world. You can check Eslaum if you wish.
Ramadan Mubarak brother Paul!
The statistics of the word usage says it all. A very important video, thank you, Paul
@@jooo7011 No such thing. And how is your question relevant here? if you are a Christian, I would have a lot of "Do you believe X in the Bible" questions for you
@@jooo7011 I know what you are referring to and I knkw my relgion (much more than you), there is no magical carpet, you don't know what you are talking about
@@jooo7011 If scientists discover everything in the universe, you can ask about flying carpets is real or not. Imagine that scientists (humans) invented the phone that you communicate with now, and they were just normal humans ? God is capable of everything, and if He says, “Be,” it will be. And when the God said { Glory be to the One Who took His servant ˹Muḥammad˺ by night from the Sacred Mosque to the Farthest Mosque whose surroundings We have blessed, so that We may show him some of Our signs. Indeed, He alone is the All-Hearing, All-Seeing }. We should believe it
❤blogging theology
Allahumma barik welcome back brother.
Thanks so much for sharing this. It's extremely useful and you explain it wonderfully!
Very interesting Sidi Paul, thank you. I did ask a Christian friend briefly about this and he said that his belief does not come from rational analysis and evidence but from personal revelation/religious experiences/ he has had that guided him towards Jesus. He said if his faith was determined by rational analysis he would not be Christian. Maybe that's why Christianity traditionally sees religion as being in conflict with science while Islam is complementary with science
I like your comments and I'm a Christian believer. However I don't see Christianity as being "in conflict with science". In fact, I believe that God Himself gave us the ability to do science!
Regarding "rational analysis", it depends on how we view rationality. I myself have difficulty with some aspects of reasoning and thinking.
But your Christian friend's personal experience in Christianity is valid. I can't refute another individual's experience/revelation.
Personally, I think both reasoning and "revelation" can work together in being guided to the truth. But I think we have to be careful because sometimes our perception/mindset can be influenced by an experience which may or may not come from God.
However, I am very reluctant to judge another person's experience. In fact, I'm often delighted by someone's positive and inspirational experience.
By the way, I try to respect Muslims. And although I basically understand Paul's challenge on this post, I can't see a rejection of a Christian belief based upon the acceptance of a possible "development" of John's Gospel.
I could be wrong.
Respectfully from Florida USA

Do you believe that The Father is THE GOD of the Son aka Jesus?
John 20:17: “Jesus saith unto her, ...I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and TO MY GOD, AND YOUR GOD.”
Have another look!
".... *TO MY GOD and YOUR GOD* "
The Son aka Jesus testified:
“For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father (my God and your God / our God) which sent me, HE (my God and your God / our God) gave me a COMMANDMENT, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that HIS (my God's and your God's / our God's) COMMANDMENT is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father (my God and your God / our God) said unto me, so I speak”
John 12:49-50
Jazakallah brother for sharing.👍
May Allah Subahanahu Wata'ala bless you, give Barakah in your worldly life and in the hereafter. May Allah make you steadfast in the right path. May Allah also bless every Muslim in the right path.❤
You are an inspiration for many of us. You made many curious people towards knowing more and more including me. Carry on this good work sir❤
I must say excellent findings Paul. I believe it will be an eye-opener for many Christians.
"the superstition of the Ishmaelites which to this day prevails and keeps people in error, being a forerunner of the Antichrist... for a false prophet named Mohammed has appeared in their midst. This man, after having chanced upon the Old and New Testaments and likewise, it seems, having conversed with an Arian monk, devised his own heresy" (John of Damascus c.680 AD)
Sir... I have followed your posts- in all faiths Christian, Hebrew, Moslem there is an element of cultural belonging, with a spiritual core, for many. I applaud your choice, and believe that each faith is truly based on exactly the same God.
Thank you, Paul, for sharing your insights and knowledge. You have always been a dependable and insightful person. May Allah bless you
Thank you Paul
This was amazingly insightful, thank you so much.
Excellent analysis. It is strange that the author of the book still stuck to Christianity despite identifying the drastic change in language in gospel of John. Thank you for sharing.
I understand your comments and it also surprises me that the author remains a Christian believer.
Although I'm also a Christian believer, I understand this challenge based upon Jimmy Dunn's book. And I appreciate Paul's ( of Blogging Theology ) honesty and respect ( he said he's not attacking Christianity ).
I myself can't see this specific challenge as initiating a complete change in my Christian beliefs. But I do see the challenge as initiating the necessity for more study, more guidance from God, and even more respect for the beliefs of other people ( especially Muslims ).
To be honest, although I've never read the Quran, I do perceive Islam itself as a "challenge". However I'm slowly learning about Islam.
Peace of God to you and your family

Over 100 times more "Father" usage in John. That's stunning. The difference in speech of Jesus in the Gospel of John is so apparent. It never felt quite right, nor historical
Thank you Paul
"The difference in speech of Jesus in the Gospel of John is so apparent"--- because the last gospel was written for a different audience and at a different time. The apostle John lived until c. 100 AD when most of the original first generation Christians had already passed away. Thus the apostle John was reiterating what the those first Christians had all believed, that is the divinity of Christ.
"It never felt quite right" ---
Indeed.
"the superstition of the Ishmaelites which to this day prevails and keeps people in error, being a forerunner of the Antichrist... for a false prophet named Mohammed has appeared in their midst. This man, after having chanced upon the Old and New Testaments and likewise, it seems, having conversed with an Arian monk, devised his own heresy" (John of Damascus c. 680 AD)
"false Christs and false prophets will appear ... See, I have told you in advance...So if they tell you, ‘There He is in the desert,’ do not go out" (Matthew 24)
@andrewferg8737 so much I could say here, and I truly wish the best for you.
Remember ALLAH - the Glorious and Exalted - is One
God can not be man and man cannot be God.
Man cannot be woman and Woman cannot be man.
Apples cannot be Oranges and Oranges cannot be Apples.
ALLAH IN HIS MAJESTY IS THE MOST HIGH.
HE DOES NOT BECOME BIRTHED IN WHAT IS BIOLOGICALLY NOT TOO DISSIMILAR FROM A DONKEY'S BIRTH. BECOME A HELPLESS BABY, ALL THE WHILE NEEDING TO USE THE BATHROOM.
THE GRECO-CHRISTIAN HERESY IS THE ONE YOU SHOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT. I DONT BELIEVE IN GREEK JESUS. SO EITHER COME TO THE PURE RELIGION WHERE ALMIGHTY GOD IS FAR SUPERIOR TO HIS CREATION OR SAY HELLO TO YOUR HINDU COUSINS. PEACE.
God's promise to Ishmael
Genesis 17:20
As for Ishmael, I have heard you; behold, I have blessed him and will make him fruitful and multiply him greatly. He shall father twelve princes, and I will make him into a great nation.
God shifting from Isaac's descendants to Ishmael's descendants
Genesis 49:10 - 10 The scepter will not depart from Judah,
nor the ruler’s staff from his descendants,
until the coming of the one to whom it belongs,
the one whom all nations will honor.
John 14:16
And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever,
Mark 1:7
“After me comes the one more powerful than I, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.
song of Solomon 5:16 it should be, "His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is 'Muhammad im'. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem"
Isaiah 29 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.
Isaiah 42 1
"Here is my servant, Ahmed, my chosen one, in whom my soul delights; I have put my Spirit upon him; he will bring forth justice to the nations. He will not shout or cry out or raise his voice in the streets. A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In faithfulness he will bring forth justice; he will not falter or be discouraged till he establishes justice on earth. In his teaching the islands will put their hope.” This is what God the Lord says-the Creator of the heavens, who stretches them out, who spreads out the earth with all that springs from it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it: “I, the Lord, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles, to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness. “I am the Lord; that is my name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols. See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you.” Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise from the ends of the earth, you who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, you islands, and all who live in them. Let the wilderness and its towns raise their voices; let the settlements where Kedar lives rejoice. Let the people of Sela sing for joy; let them shout from the mountaintops."
Kedar(son of Ishmael) = Arabs Sela = mountain in Medina He will be an Arab, preaching in Medina, singing a new song aka reciting the Quran, He will be a light to the gentiles, meaning he is not only sent to the children of Israel.
John 14:30 ►
I will not say much more to you, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no hold over me,
John 16 13
Howbeit when he, the Prophet Ahmet(Hebrew), is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.[14] He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
@@andrewferg8737 your response as to why the gospel of John is different does not help your trinitarian case one bit. By saying that John was written for a different audience hence the difference, you rightly proved that those anonymous folks who wrote the Gospels were motivated by their agendas to write stuff in their Gospels. Hence you have liars who added the ending of Mark to somehow prove the resurrection, or the forgery related to trinity that has been removed from new Bibles.
The crucial point here is that a person has a distinctive style of speaking/ writing in a given time period and if that changes radically then one can be confident that that speech or writing is not from him. For instance, anyone familiar with Samuel Johnson's writing style would know immediately that Merchant of Venice or A Tale of Two Cities was written by someone else- but give him any random essay from The Rambler and he would know it's from Johnson.
@@LITTLE-ROCK "anonymous folks who wrote the Gospels" ???
The crucial flaw in of the anonymous gospel conjecture as formulated by postmodernist critical literary theorists is its lack of evidence. There exists not one example of attribution to any individual other than the traditional authors.
"Mark having become the interpreter of Peter, wrote down accurately whatsoever he remembered... he accompanied Peter, who accommodated his instructions to the necessities, but with no intention of giving a regular narrative of the Lord's sayings... Matthew put together the oracles in the Hebrew language" (St. Papias, Exposition of the Oracles of the Lord, c.110 AD)
"Matthew also issued a written Gospel among the Hebrews in their own dialect, while Peter and Paul were preaching at Rome... After their departure, Mark, the disciple and interpreter of Peter, did also hand down to us in writing what had been preached by Peter. Luke also, the companion of Paul, recorded in a book the Gospel preached by him. Afterwards, John, the disciple of the Lord, who also had leaned upon His breast, did himself publish a Gospel during his residence at Ephesus in Asia." (St. Irenaeus Against Heresies, 3.1, c.180 AD)
Dear Brother Paul,
Ramadan Mubarak to you and your loved ones! Your content is incredible. I admire your ability to present complex topics clearly and unbiasedly, and your use of academic references is commendable. I'm curious, how many pages do you read per day on average? Any tips for scholarly learning about Islam and other subjects?
Thank you for your amazing work. Looking forward to your future videos!
May Allah bless you abundantly 🙏
Alhamdulullah
Respectfully, brother Paul does seem to acknowledge the influence of other scholars. So Paul's content here is coming from other sources, including the book by Jimmy Dunn.
I'm happy that Paul was not attacking Christianity. We need more respectful communication between Muslims and Christians.
By the way, I also acknowledge the influence of various scholars. That's because I don't know it all.
I'm a simple Christian believer. Peace of God to all Muslims and Christians.
I’m happy I came across your channel I am born Muslim I have learned so much from you thank you sir! May Allah reward you!

I love your intellectual explanation- MashaAllah .❤
paul what is unitarian christian? they believe jesus was a prophet?
They call it Spiritual Leader or something. Bare in mind, prophet in the Bible was not seen as a pristine sinless individual. They was tainted to make Jesus seems to be an exceptional case. Generally, prophet in the Bible are not seen as how Islam see the prophets. So they reluctantly group Jesus among the prophets and call by other names.
Unitarian Christians were the early Christians who did not believe or follow the trinity they only believed that Jesus was a son of God not God himself and believed God was 1 not 3 in 1
Unitarianism is a religious movement started around 200 years ago, they don't believe the Bible is the objective word of God and claim theology is tradition based. They also have no consistent view of who Jesus was, some might say he was a supernatural being like a demigod, and others might say he was just some enlightened teacher.
The more I watch your videos the more you inspire me
Alhamdolillah for everything
