this who I think it is
1) Jesus rose from the dead. A good historical case
2) the disciples were sincere. They suffered for their faith
3) Earliness of the gospel message
4) Messianic prophecies point to Jesus
1) Jesus rose from the dead. there is a good historical case that the disciples believed and claimed that they saw the risen Jesus.
Gary Habermas (Christian Philosopher) "Virtually no one, believer or critic, denies that it was their convictions that they had seen the resurrected Jesus that caused the disciples' radical transformation. They are willing to die specifically for their resurrection belief"
Paula Fredrikson (Jewish scholar) "I know in their own terms what they saw was the risen Jesus. That's what they say, and then all the historic evidence we have afterwards attest to their conviction that that's what they saw. I'm not saying that they really did see the raised Jesus. I wasn't there. I don't know what they saw. But I do know that as a historian that they must have seen something" [Interview in the Search for Jesus w/ Peter Jennings 2000]
Bart Ehrman (atheist scholar) "it is a historical fact that some of Jesus' followers came to believe that he had been raised from the dead soon after his execution" [Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet of the Nee Millenium, pg 230]
2) they suffered for their faith. It shows they were sincere.
Sean McDowell “… the apostles were willing to suffer for their faith. This is certainly true of Paul, who recounts the suffering he endured, which included being whipped, beaten, stoned, shipwrecked, near starvation and in danger from various people and places (2 Cor. 6:4-9). Speaking for the apostles, after being threatened by the religious leaders, Peter and John say, “For we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard” (Acts 4:20). The apostles are then thrown in prison, beaten for their faith, but they continued to preach and teach the gospel (Acts 5:17-42)… it shows the depth of the apostles’ convictions. They were not liars. They truly believed Jesus rose from the grave and they were willing to give their lives for it.”
Gary habermas (Christian Philosopher) "Willing deaths show that the martyrs sincerely believed their own reports. So, just to preach Jesus in the early church context would expose the preacher to at least the possibility of death. Virtually no scholars would deny that this occurred. But please note that I generally base these points on the disciples’ willingness to die, because this keeps me from having to prove the actual point and their being willing is all you need to show they were sincere.”
Justin W. Bass (Christian Professor) "The earliest followers of Jesus in the AD 30s were proclaiming that Jesus died on the cross for their sins and rose from the dead as Lord of the world. Jesus’ brother James, his chief apostle Peter, and his enemy Paul all claimed that the resurrected Jesus appeared to them. That these three men believed this is historically irrefutable. Further, the historical evidence that these same three men were martyred for their faith is strong enough to convince even skeptics like Bart Ehrman. Whatever these three men saw, it was worth giving their lives for."
Christopher Price (Christian NT Scholar) “Most striking perhaps is that fact that Jesus appeared to Paul. Paul hated Christians and was hell-bent on destroying the church. What transformed him from a persecutor of Christians to a pastor, who was willing to endure extraordinary hardship to proclaim the Gospel? Paul claimed it was the resurrection. This also indicates that Jesus didn’t just appear to friends or followers who might have been predisposed to think high and exalted things about him. Christ appeared to skeptics (James) and unbelievers (Paul) and they were convinced based on the reality of the resurrection”
Erik Manning “Virtually no critic today thinks that Paul’s faith wasn’t genuine… The evidence for Paul’s sincerity is overwhelming… Cult leaders like Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and Mohammed had power and married multiple wives. In comparison, Paul clearly wasn’t in it for sex or otherworldly passions.”
3) The Earliness of the message
Justin Bass (NT professor) "Scholars from all different backgrounds... are virtually unanimous that this creedal tradition dates, on average, to within 5 years of Jesus' death (1 Cor 15:3-7 he died for our sins, he appeared other apostles)
Gred Ludemann (atheist nt professor) " The elements in the tradition are to be dated to the first two years after the crucifixion of Jesus, not later than three years... The formation of the appearance traditions mentioned in 1 Cor 15:3-8 falls into the time between 30 and 33 CE" [The Resurrection of Jesus, pg 171-72]
Gary Habermas (Christian Philosopher) "The importance of the creed in 1 Corinthians 15:3b-5 can hardly be overestimated. No longer can it be charged that there is no demonstratable early, eyewitness testimony of the resurrection or for the other important tenets of Christianity, for this creed provides just such evidential data concerning the facts of the Gospel, which are the very centre of the Christian faith"
4) Jesus fulfilled messianic prophecies that were predicted centuries ago
Isaiah 53 was written 600 years before Christ but describes Jesus
The punishment that brought us peace was on him, and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was pierced for our transgressions, for our iniquities. He was led like a Iamb to the slaughter; the Lord makes his life an offering for sin. He was despised and rejected by mankind, we considered him punished by God, yet it was the Lord's will to crush him. He poured out his life unto death. After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be satisfied. The righteous servant will justify many, for he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 22:37 (Jesus said) It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’ [Isaiah 53:12]; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”
Isaiah 53:12 because he poured out his life unto death, and WAS NUMBERED WITH THE TRANSGRESSORS. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 24 44 “This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.” 45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46 He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, 47 and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
Norman Geisler (Christian professor) "Hundreds of predictions, some of them given hundreds of years in advance, have been literally fulfilled. The time (Daniel 9), city (Micah 5:2), and nature (Isaiah 7:14) of Christ's birth were foretold in the Old testament, as were dozens of other things about his life, death, and resurrection (Isaiah 53)"..
@Jobin Koshy you can try as much as you want but you can't change the hearts of the ones who have been guided
@@AqibRaja_96 guided by Satan
Akhi you are a huge reason why I accepted Islam. Allah chose to guide me through you. Take a look into string theory of physics. Every possible and probable action might be happening all at once and simultaneously… I would love what your brain can contemplate this in terms of Dawah and your own life. Maybe this is why nobody get to re-do life. Allah says no do-overs in life. I’ve always thought “Why not”? I think this theory validates it. Every decision we make has already been made… we just choose to make it every day… Qadrallah. Salam ya Shaykh

Your videos helped me a lot on my journey from Christianity to Islam. I had so many questions, and it was so hard to break from what I had been taught and believed in my whole life. I watched all of your videos, it was like Allah was answering all of my questions through your videos. May Allah bless you.
@MarieAnge I appreciate your response. But I have studied Christianity in depth my whole adult life. I've read the Bible cover to cover, studied it extensively, taught Sunday school at my church, sung in the worship team at my church... Please rest assured I don't take my religion lightly. I have not converted yet and I won't until I'm 100% sure. I pray every day for God to guide me to the right path and show me the truth, I pray the same for you.
Im so happy for you, May Allah bless you.
@MarieAnge Christianity ...Jesus = male god, Islamic....Jesus= male prophet
@MarieAnge sister sorry my bad english before, I'm Indonesian. But hope you still got it. It was very bias or ambiguous verse, out of context of divinity sign... why Jesus peace upon him didn't say 'before Adam' (peace upon him) it's more acceptable..more reasonable

But please note that I generally base these points on the disciples’ willingness to die, because this keeps me from having to prove the actual point and their being willing is all you need to show they were sincere.”
Justin W. Bass (Christian Professor) "The earliest followers of Jesus in the AD 30s were proclaiming that Jesus died on the cross for their sins and rose from the dead as Lord of the world. Jesus’ brother James, his chief apostle Peter, and his enemy Paul all claimed that the resurrected Jesus appeared to them. That these three men believed this is historically irrefutable. Further, the historical evidence that these same three men were martyred for their faith is strong enough to convince even skeptics like Bart Ehrman. Whatever these three men saw, it was worth giving their lives for."
Christopher Price (Christian NT Scholar) “Most striking perhaps is that fact that Jesus appeared to Paul. Paul hated Christians and was hell-bent on destroying the church. What transformed him from a persecutor of Christians to a pastor, who was willing to endure extraordinary hardship to proclaim the Gospel? Paul claimed it was the resurrection. This also indicates that Jesus didn’t just appear to friends or followers who might have been predisposed to think high and exalted things about him. Christ appeared to skeptics (James) and unbelievers (Paul) and they were convinced based on the reality of the resurrection”
Erik Manning “Virtually no critic today thinks that Paul’s faith wasn’t genuine… The evidence for Paul’s sincerity is overwhelming… Cult leaders like Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and Mohammed had power and married multiple wives. In comparison, Paul clearly wasn’t in it for sex or otherworldly passions.”
3) The Earliness of the message
Justin Bass (NT professor) "Scholars from all different backgrounds... are virtually unanimous that this creedal tradition dates, on average, to within 5 years of Jesus' death (1 Cor 15:3-7 he died for our sins, he appeared other apostles)
Gred Ludemann (atheist nt professor) " The elements in the tradition are to be dated to the first two years after the crucifixion of Jesus, not later than three years... The formation of the appearance traditions mentioned in 1 Cor 15:3-8 falls into the time between 30 and 33 CE" [The Resurrection of Jesus, pg 171-72]
Gary Habermas (Christian Philosopher) "The importance of the creed in 1 Corinthians 15:3b-5 can hardly be overestimated. No longer can it be charged that there is no demonstratable early, eyewitness testimony of the resurrection or for the other important tenets of Christianity, for this creed provides just such evidential data concerning the facts of the Gospel, which are the very centre of the Christian faith"
4) Jesus fulfilled messianic prophecies that were predicted centuries ago
Isaiah 53 was written 600 years before Christ but describes Jesus
The punishment that brought us peace was on him, and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was pierced for our transgressions, for our iniquities. He was led like a Iamb to the slaughter; the Lord makes his life an offering for sin. He was despised and rejected by mankind, we considered him punished by God, yet it was the Lord's will to crush him. He poured out his life unto death. After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be satisfied. The righteous servant will justify many, for he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 22:37 (Jesus said) It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’ [Isaiah 53:12]; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”
Isaiah 53:12 because he poured out his life unto death, and WAS NUMBERED WITH THE TRANSGRESSORS. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 24 44 “This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.” 45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46 He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, 47 and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
Norman Geisler (Christian professor) "Hundreds of predictions, some of them given hundreds of years in advance, have been literally fulfilled. The time (Daniel 9), city (Micah 5:2), and nature (Isaiah 7:14) of Christ's birth were foretold in the Old testament, as were dozens of other things about his life, death, and resurrection (Isaiah 53)"..

1) Jesus rose from the dead. A good historical case
2) the disciples were sincere. They suffered for their faith
3) Earliness of the gospel message
4) Messianic prophecies point to Jesus
1) Jesus rose from the dead. there is a good historical case that the disciples believed and claimed that they saw the risen Jesus.
Gary Habermas (Christian Philosopher) "Virtually no one, believer or critic, denies that it was their convictions that they had seen the resurrected Jesus that caused the disciples' radical transformation. They are willing to die specifically for their resurrection belief"
Paula Fredrikson (Jewish scholar) "I know in their own terms what they saw was the risen Jesus. That's what they say, and then all the historic evidence we have afterwards attest to their conviction that that's what they saw. I'm not saying that they really did see the raised Jesus. I wasn't there. I don't know what they saw. But I do know that as a historian that they must have seen something" [Interview in the Search for Jesus w/ Peter Jennings 2000]
Bart Ehrman (atheist scholar) "it is a historical fact that some of Jesus' followers came to believe that he had been raised from the dead soon after his execution" [Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet of the Nee Millenium, pg 230]
2) they suffered for their faith. It shows they were sincere.
Sean McDowell “… the apostles were willing to suffer for their faith. This is certainly true of Paul, who recounts the suffering he endured, which included being whipped, beaten, stoned, shipwrecked, near starvation and in danger from various people and places (2 Cor. 6:4-9). Speaking for the apostles, after being threatened by the religious leaders, Peter and John say, “For we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard” (Acts 4:20). The apostles are then thrown in prison, beaten for their faith, but they continued to preach and teach the gospel (Acts 5:17-42)… it shows the depth of the apostles’ convictions. They were not liars. They truly believed Jesus rose from the grave and they were willing to give their lives for it.”

That's what they say, and then all the historic evidence we have afterwards attest to their conviction that that's what they saw. I'm not saying that they really did see the raised Jesus. I wasn't there. I don't know what they saw. But I do know that as a historian that they must have seen something" [Interview in the Search for Jesus w/ Peter Jennings 2000]
Bart Ehrman (atheist scholar) "it is a historical fact that some of Jesus' followers came to believe that he had been raised from the dead soon after his execution" [Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet of the Nee Millenium, pg 230]
2) they suffered for their faith. It shows they were sincere.
Sean McDowell “… the apostles were willing to suffer for their faith. This is certainly true of Paul, who recounts the suffering he endured, which included being whipped, beaten, stoned, shipwrecked, near starvation and in danger from various people and places (2 Cor. 6:4-9). Speaking for the apostles, after being threatened by the religious leaders, Peter and John say, “For we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard” (Acts 4:20). The apostles are then thrown in prison, beaten for their faith, but they continued to preach and teach the gospel (Acts 5:17-42)… it shows the depth of the apostles’ convictions. They were not liars. They truly believed Jesus rose from the grave and they were willing to give their lives for it.”
Gary habermas (Christian Philosopher) "Willing deaths show that the martyrs sincerely believed their own reports. So, just to preach Jesus in the early church context would expose the preacher to at least the possibility of death. Virtually no scholars would deny that this occurred. But please note that I generally base these points on the disciples’ willingness to die, because this keeps me from having to prove the actual point and their being willing is all you need to show they were sincere.”
Justin W. Bass (Christian Professor) "The earliest followers of Jesus in the AD 30s were proclaiming that Jesus died on the cross for their sins and rose from the dead as Lord of the world. Jesus’ brother James, his chief apostle Peter, and his enemy Paul all claimed that the resurrected Jesus appeared to them. That these three men believed this is historically irrefutable. Further, the historical evidence that these same three men were martyred for their faith is strong enough to convince even skeptics like Bart Ehrman. Whatever these three men saw, it was worth giving their lives for."
Christopher Price (Christian NT Scholar) “Most striking perhaps is that fact that Jesus appeared to Paul. Paul hated Christians and was hell-bent on destroying the church. What transformed him from a persecutor of Christians to a pastor, who was willing to endure extraordinary hardship to proclaim the Gospel? Paul claimed it was the resurrection. This also indicates that Jesus didn’t just appear to friends or followers who might have been predisposed to think high and exalted things about him. Christ appeared to skeptics (James) and unbelievers (Paul) and they were convinced based on the reality of the resurrection”
Erik Manning “Virtually no critic today thinks that Paul’s faith wasn’t genuine… The evidence for Paul’s sincerity is overwhelming… Cult leaders like Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and Mohammed had power and married multiple wives. In comparison, Paul clearly wasn’t in it for sex or otherworldly passions.”
3) The Earliness of the message
Justin Bass (NT professor) "Scholars from all different backgrounds... are virtually unanimous that this creedal tradition dates, on average, to within 5 years of Jesus' death (1 Cor 15:3-7 he died for our sins, he appeared other apostles)
Gred Ludemann (atheist nt professor) " The elements in the tradition are to be dated to the first two years after the crucifixion of Jesus, not later than three years... The formation of the appearance traditions mentioned in 1 Cor 15:3-8 falls into the time between 30 and 33 CE" [The Resurrection of Jesus, pg 171-72]
Gary Habermas (Christian Philosopher) "The importance of the creed in 1 Corinthians 15:3b-5 can hardly be overestimated. No longer can it be charged that there is no demonstratable early, eyewitness testimony of the resurrection or for the other important tenets of Christianity, for this creed provides just such evidential data concerning the facts of the Gospel, which are the very centre of the Christian faith"
4) Jesus fulfilled messianic prophecies that were predicted centuries ago
Isaiah 53 was written 600 years before Christ but describes Jesus
The punishment that brought us peace was on him, and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was pierced for our transgressions, for our iniquities. He was led like a Iamb to the slaughter; the Lord makes his life an offering for sin. He was despised and rejected by mankind, we considered him punished by God, yet it was the Lord's will to crush him. He poured out his life unto death. After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be satisfied. The righteous servant will justify many, for he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 22:37 (Jesus said) It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’ [Isaiah 53:12]; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”
Isaiah 53:12 because he poured out his life unto death, and WAS NUMBERED WITH THE TRANSGRESSORS. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 24 44 “This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.” 45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46 He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, 47 and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
Norman Geisler (Christian professor) "Hundreds of predictions, some of them given hundreds of years in advance, have been literally fulfilled. The time (Daniel 9), city (Micah 5:2), and nature (Isaiah 7:14) of Christ's birth were foretold in the Old testament, as were dozens of other things about his life, death, and resurrection (Isaiah 53)"..

Ahki! This reminds and gives me goosebumps from when I watched your how the Bible led me to islam video in 2009. This along with the arrival series by noreagaa and achernahr prepared me to fully submit. I believe 2006 was my 1st opportunity but I couldn’t overcome the Jesus perspective. Until I seen your video. Allah then gave me a final sign. It was after my last final exam at university when I was leaving and seen a family of like 7 Muslims randomly sitting on a path I normally didn’t travel. I was going to leave after I seen them but couldn’t and had to sit with them. The noor from the kids faces of all ages were so powerful and overwhelming. The big bearded father came to pick up the family and I thanked him for being a living example for those who need it, myself. I cried uncontrollably back to my room. The next day 12/19/09 I took my shahada. May Allah continue to guide, protect, elevate, give you/family the best of this world and the next Jannatul Firdaus! assalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
Wa'alaikum Salam Warahmatullah Hi Wabarakatu Hu, Brother Yusha Evans, Alhamdulillah, I am a Muslim like you, and so happy to answer your Salam.

4) Jesus fulfilled messianic prophecies that were predicted centuries ago
Isaiah 53 was written 600 years before Christ but describes Jesus
The punishment that brought us peace was on him, and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was pierced for our transgressions, for our iniquities. He was led like a Iamb to the slaughter; the Lord makes his life an offering for sin. He was despised and rejected by mankind, we considered him punished by God, yet it was the Lord's will to crush him. He poured out his life unto death. After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be satisfied. The righteous servant will justify many, for he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 22:37 (Jesus said) It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’ [Isaiah 53:12]; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”
Isaiah 53:12 because he poured out his life unto death, and WAS NUMBERED WITH THE TRANSGRESSORS. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 24 44 “This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.” 45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46 He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, 47 and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
Norman Geisler (Christian professor) "Hundreds of predictions, some of them given hundreds of years in advance, have been literally fulfilled. The time (Daniel 9), city (Micah 5:2), and nature (Isaiah 7:14) of Christ's birth were foretold in the Old testament, as were dozens of other things about his life, death, and resurrection (Isaiah 53)"..

souls to do searching; BIBLE + FREEMASONRY
Never heard someone's testimony whence they say that THEY LEFT CHRISTIANTY.
It is always have been about catholic religion from which they left and not a CHRISTIANTY.
Every soul who have come out with "Why I Left Christianity" ends up speaking about catholic religion.
And souls know it and understand it that:
Christianity is found only in the BIBLE, as a soul takes a bible, sits down and reads it and then start studying it in order to understand it, or we end up misreading the whole bible.
Coming to repentance and born again is each soul`s individual CONSCIOUS decision, which child (0 - 20 years) cannot do. It is the CONSCIOUS decision for the adults.
No child goes to hell to burn, GOD is not unjust, HE IS JUST JUDGE.
Hell fire waits us when we being adults and remain sinners.
The keys to understand the BIBLE are:
- hunger for truth
- THE COMFORTER.
Christians are expected to live out from the BABYLON and expose the wicked (masons and their death club, freemasonry), yet all of your stories are about being in the Babylon, and very deeply in. And as far as it sound, none of you left CHRISTIANTY, but all of you left catholic religion. Wise move. Now i, others and yourself can only pray that you`ll end up finding and understanding the real CHRISTIANITY.
May Allah protect and bless you brother Yusha ...
1) Jesus rose from the dead. A good historical case
2) the disciples were sincere. They suffered for their faith
3) Earliness of the gospel message
4) Messianic prophecies point to Jesus
1) Jesus rose from the dead. there is a good historical case that the disciples believed and claimed that they saw the risen Jesus.
Gary Habermas (Christian Philosopher) "Virtually no one, believer or critic, denies that it was their convictions that they had seen the resurrected Jesus that caused the disciples' radical transformation. They are willing to die specifically for their resurrection belief"
Paula Fredrikson (Jewish scholar) "I know in their own terms what they saw was the risen Jesus. That's what they say, and then all the historic evidence we have afterwards attest to their conviction that that's what they saw. I'm not saying that they really did see the raised Jesus. I wasn't there. I don't know what they saw. But I do know that as a historian that they must have seen something" [Interview in the Search for Jesus w/ Peter Jennings 2000]
Bart Ehrman (atheist scholar) "it is a historical fact that some of Jesus' followers came to believe that he had been raised from the dead soon after his execution" [Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet of the Nee Millenium, pg 230]
2) they suffered for their faith. It shows they were sincere.
Sean McDowell “… the apostles were willing to suffer for their faith. This is certainly true of Paul, who recounts the suffering he endured, which included being whipped, beaten, stoned, shipwrecked, near starvation and in danger from various people and places (2 Cor. 6:4-9). Speaking for the apostles, after being threatened by the religious leaders, Peter and John say, “For we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard” (Acts 4:20). The apostles are then thrown in prison, beaten for their faith, but they continued to preach and teach the gospel (Acts 5:17-42)… it shows the depth of the apostles’ convictions. They were not liars. They truly believed Jesus rose from the grave and they were willing to give their lives for it.”
Gary habermas (Christian Philosopher) "Willing deaths show that the martyrs sincerely believed their own reports. So, just to preach Jesus in the early church context would expose the preacher to at least the possibility of death. Virtually no scholars would deny that this occurred. But please note that I generally base these points on the disciples’ willingness to die, because this keeps me from having to prove the actual point and their being willing is all you need to show they were sincere.”
Justin W. Bass (Christian Professor) "The earliest followers of Jesus in the AD 30s were proclaiming that Jesus died on the cross for their sins and rose from the dead as Lord of the world. Jesus’ brother James, his chief apostle Peter, and his enemy Paul all claimed that the resurrected Jesus appeared to them. That these three men believed this is historically irrefutable. Further, the historical evidence that these same three men were martyred for their faith is strong enough to convince even skeptics like Bart Ehrman. Whatever these three men saw, it was worth giving their lives for."
Christopher Price (Christian NT Scholar) “Most striking perhaps is that fact that Jesus appeared to Paul. Paul hated Christians and was hell-bent on destroying the church. What transformed him from a persecutor of Christians to a pastor, who was willing to endure extraordinary hardship to proclaim the Gospel? Paul claimed it was the resurrection. This also indicates that Jesus didn’t just appear to friends or followers who might have been predisposed to think high and exalted things about him. Christ appeared to skeptics (James) and unbelievers (Paul) and they were convinced based on the reality of the resurrection”
Erik Manning “Virtually no critic today thinks that Paul’s faith wasn’t genuine… The evidence for Paul’s sincerity is overwhelming… Cult leaders like Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and Mohammed had power and married multiple wives. In comparison, Paul clearly wasn’t in it for sex or otherworldly passions.”
3) The Earliness of the message
Justin Bass (NT professor) "Scholars from all different backgrounds... are virtually unanimous that this creedal tradition dates, on average, to within 5 years of Jesus' death (1 Cor 15:3-7 he died for our sins, he appeared other apostles)
Gred Ludemann (atheist nt professor) " The elements in the tradition are to be dated to the first two years after the crucifixion of Jesus, not later than three years... The formation of the appearance traditions mentioned in 1 Cor 15:3-8 falls into the time between 30 and 33 CE" [The Resurrection of Jesus, pg 171-72]

This is the meaning of the parable: the seed is the word of God.
12 Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved.
13 Those on the rocky ground are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away.
14 The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature.
15 But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.
As Jesus said, this is why I speak to them in parables: they see without seeing, and hear without hearing or understanding. In them the prophecy of Isaiah was fulfilled, as he says:
Hearing you hear but you do not understand, and seeing you see but you do not see.
For the heart of this people has become hard, and their ears have become hard of hearing, and they close their eyes so that they do not see.
Whoever hears the word of the kingdom of God and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart:

4) Messianic prophecies point to Jesus
1) Jesus rose from the dead. there is a good historical case that the disciples believed and claimed that they saw the risen Jesus.
Gary Habermas (Christian Philosopher) "Virtually no one, believer or critic, denies that it was their convictions that they had seen the resurrected Jesus that caused the disciples' radical transformation. They are willing to die specifically for their resurrection belief"
Paula Fredrikson (Jewish scholar) "I know in their own terms what they saw was the risen Jesus. That's what they say, and then all the historic evidence we have afterwards attest to their conviction that that's what they saw. I'm not saying that they really did see the raised Jesus. I wasn't there. I don't know what they saw. But I do know that as a historian that they must have seen something" [Interview in the Search for Jesus w/ Peter Jennings 2000]
Bart Ehrman (atheist scholar) "it is a historical fact that some of Jesus' followers came to believe that he had been raised from the dead soon after his execution" [Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet of the Nee Millenium, pg 230]
2) they suffered for their faith. It shows they were sincere.
Sean McDowell “… the apostles were willing to suffer for their faith. This is certainly true of Paul, who recounts the suffering he endured, which included being whipped, beaten, stoned, shipwrecked, near starvation and in danger from various people and places (2 Cor. 6:4-9). Speaking for the apostles, after being threatened by the religious leaders, Peter and John say, “For we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard” (Acts 4:20). The apostles are then thrown in prison, beaten for their faith, but they continued to preach and teach the gospel (Acts 5:17-42)… it shows the depth of the apostles’ convictions. They were not liars. They truly believed Jesus rose from the grave and they were willing to give their lives for it.”
Gary habermas (Christian Philosopher) "Willing deaths show that the martyrs sincerely believed their own reports. So, just to preach Jesus in the early church context would expose the preacher to at least the possibility of death. Virtually no scholars would deny that this occurred. But please note that I generally base these points on the disciples’ willingness to die, because this keeps me from having to prove the actual point and their being willing is all you need to show they were sincere.”
Justin W. Bass (Christian Professor) "The earliest followers of Jesus in the AD 30s were proclaiming that Jesus died on the cross for their sins and rose from the dead as Lord of the world. Jesus’ brother James, his chief apostle Peter, and his enemy Paul all claimed that the resurrected Jesus appeared to them. That these three men believed this is historically irrefutable. Further, the historical evidence that these same three men were martyred for their faith is strong enough to convince even skeptics like Bart Ehrman. Whatever these three men saw, it was worth giving their lives for."
Christopher Price (Christian NT Scholar) “Most striking perhaps is that fact that Jesus appeared to Paul. Paul hated Christians and was hell-bent on destroying the church. What transformed him from a persecutor of Christians to a pastor, who was willing to endure extraordinary hardship to proclaim the Gospel? Paul claimed it was the resurrection. This also indicates that Jesus didn’t just appear to friends or followers who might have been predisposed to think high and exalted things about him. Christ appeared to skeptics (James) and unbelievers (Paul) and they were convinced based on the reality of the resurrection”
Erik Manning “Virtually no critic today thinks that Paul’s faith wasn’t genuine… The evidence for Paul’s sincerity is overwhelming… Cult leaders like Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and Mohammed had power and married multiple wives. In comparison, Paul clearly wasn’t in it for sex or otherworldly passions.”
3) The Earliness of the message
Justin Bass (NT professor) "Scholars from all different backgrounds... are virtually unanimous that this creedal tradition dates, on average, to within 5 years of Jesus' death (1 Cor 15:3-7 he died for our sins, he appeared other apostles)
Gred Ludemann (atheist nt professor) " The elements in the tradition are to be dated to the first two years after the crucifixion of Jesus, not later than three years... The formation of the appearance traditions mentioned in 1 Cor 15:3-8 falls into the time between 30 and 33 CE" [The Resurrection of Jesus, pg 171-72]
Gary Habermas (Christian Philosopher) "The importance of the creed in 1 Corinthians 15:3b-5 can hardly be overestimated. No longer can it be charged that there is no demonstratable early, eyewitness testimony of the resurrection or for the other important tenets of Christianity, for this creed provides just such evidential data concerning the facts of the Gospel, which are the very centre of the Christian faith"
4) Jesus fulfilled messianic prophecies that were predicted centuries ago
Isaiah 53 was written 600 years before Christ but describes Jesus
The punishment that brought us peace was on him, and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was pierced for our transgressions, for our iniquities. He was led like a Iamb to the slaughter; the Lord makes his life an offering for sin. He was despised and rejected by mankind, we considered him punished by God, yet it was the Lord's will to crush him. He poured out his life unto death. After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be satisfied. The righteous servant will justify many, for he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 22:37 (Jesus said) It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’ [Isaiah 53:12]; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”
Isaiah 53:12 because he poured out his life unto death, and WAS NUMBERED WITH THE TRANSGRESSORS. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 24 44 “This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.” 45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46 He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, 47 and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
Norman Geisler (Christian professor) "Hundreds of predictions, some of them given hundreds of years in advance, have been literally fulfilled. The time (Daniel 9), city (Micah 5:2), and nature (Isaiah 7:14) of Christ's birth were foretold in the Old testament, as were dozens of other things about his life, death, and resurrection (Isaiah 53)".......

So your "lord" was punished and died? Interesting.
We as Muslims don't belittle Jesus (pbuh). On the contrary, we believe he's one of the mightiest prophets of god, who was sent to deliver the same message as Moses, Ibrahim, and all the prophet, that God is ONE. He never claimed divinity, never claimed he's God, never claimed he's son of god!
One of many versus in your Bible says:
Mark 12:32
And the scribe said to him, "Well, teacher, you have said the truth, for there is one God"
Please read your Bible again, with an open mind, and read the Quran to know more about Islam
Salaam brother it will be nice you speaking to Bobby perspective and clear his doubts as to why islam is the truth

He was despised and rejected by mankind, we considered him punished by God, yet it was the Lord's will to crush him. He poured out his life unto death. After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be satisfied. The righteous servant will justify many, for he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 22:37 (Jesus said) It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’ [Isaiah 53:12]; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”
Isaiah 53:12 because he poured out his life unto death, and WAS NUMBERED WITH THE TRANSGRESSORS. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 24 44 “This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.” 45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46 He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, 47 and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
Norman Geisler (Christian professor) "Hundreds of predictions, some of them given hundreds of years in advance, have been literally fulfilled. The time (Daniel 9), city (Micah 5:2), and nature (Isaiah 7:14) of Christ's birth were foretold in the Old testament, as were dozens of other things about his life, death, and resurrection (Isaiah 53)".......
I really hope you consider doing more videos in Christianity as this would help tremendously in regards to dawah. Thank you for all your work.
Hey Ahki I am in my early 30s when I was about 18 or 19 teen your videos were one of the first Islamic videos that I discovered on youtube. I was born Muslim but started to go to church with friends and almost gave up on the beautiful Deen. By the grace of Allah I came across your video and everything clicked U decided to learn more about Islam and never thought of becoming Christian again. Thank Ahki may Allah bless you
This was back in 2009
If Muhammed couldn’t and didn't describe GOD and the Quran doesn't describe who GOD is, how can anybody know, using the Quran.
Proof?
Answer this simple question: You Muslims tell us that we worship the same GOD? Is that true? What you need to establish is: Who/What is GOD? So the question is: Describe GOD? Describe GOD? No Names! No Attributes! No Miracles! No History! What HE has or hasn't done! Can or can't do! Will or won't do! Using the Quran and the Bible only, write down the title, chapter and verse only. No Text. No Explanations. No commentaries! Describe GOD? Describe GOD? e.g. John ??:??, Sura ??:?? Et al.
The Mohammedans have had this question put to them for decades with no proper response, and when they did answer it was exactly what a drater< would say, nothing remotely close to what the question asks?
The Muslims can answer the question, but they won’t. Why not?
There are many facets to the question, meet all the criteria. If I could have done it, so can any and everybody else do it!
Make sure you understand what the question is, before you answer and make a fool of yourself!
Allah bless you
Alhamdulilah
jazak Allah khair Allah khair
Sense.
This guy has something special in his speach! Allah (SWT) is The Best Planer and He knows to whom to give a guide to righteous path and to pick persons who are able to speak clear, clean, understandable to anyone! As Salamu Alaikum Wa Rahmetulahu Wa Barakatuhu dear brother! May Allah bless you with all His blessings! Sure, He already did, but I wish you more and more blessings! Even though I am born Muslim you're so inspiring! Allahu Akbar

1) Jesus rose from the dead. A good historical case
2) the disciples were sincere. They suffered for their faith
3) Earliness of the gospel message
4) Messianic prophecies point to Jesus
1) Jesus rose from the dead. there is a good historical case that the disciples believed and claimed that they saw the risen Jesus.
Gary Habermas (Christian Philosopher) "Virtually no one, believer or critic, denies that it was their convictions that they had seen the resurrected Jesus that caused the disciples' radical transformation. They are willing to die specifically for their resurrection belief"
Paula Fredrikson (Jewish scholar) "I know in their own terms what they saw was the risen Jesus. That's what they say, and then all the historic evidence we have afterwards attest to their conviction that that's what they saw. I'm not saying that they really did see the raised Jesus. I wasn't there. I don't know what they saw. But I do know that as a historian that they must have seen something" [Interview in the Search for Jesus w/ Peter Jennings 2000]
Bart Ehrman (atheist scholar) "it is a historical fact that some of Jesus' followers came to believe that he had been raised from the dead soon after his execution" [Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet of the Nee Millenium, pg 230]
2) they suffered for their faith. It shows they were sincere.
Sean McDowell “… the apostles were willing to suffer for their faith. This is certainly true of Paul, who recounts the suffering he endured, which included being whipped, beaten, stoned, shipwrecked, near starvation and in danger from various people and places (2 Cor. 6:4-9). Speaking for the apostles, after being threatened by the religious leaders, Peter and John say, “For we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard” (Acts 4:20). The apostles are then thrown in prison, beaten for their faith, but they continued to preach and teach the gospel (Acts 5:17-42)… it shows the depth of the apostles’ convictions. They were not liars. They truly believed Jesus rose from the grave and they were willing to give their lives for it.”
Gary habermas (Christian Philosopher) "Willing deaths show that the martyrs sincerely believed their own reports. So, just to preach Jesus in the early church context would expose the preacher to at least the possibility of death. Virtually no scholars would deny that this occurred. But please note that I generally base these points on the disciples’ willingness to die, because this keeps me from having to prove the actual point and their being willing is all you need to show they were sincere.”
Justin W. Bass (Christian Professor) "The earliest followers of Jesus in the AD 30s were proclaiming that Jesus died on the cross for their sins and rose from the dead as Lord of the world. Jesus’ brother James, his chief apostle Peter, and his enemy Paul all claimed that the resurrected Jesus appeared to them. That these three men believed this is historically irrefutable. Further, the historical evidence that these same three men were martyred for their faith is strong enough to convince even skeptics like Bart Ehrman. Whatever these three men saw, it was worth giving their lives for."
Christopher Price (Christian NT Scholar) “Most striking perhaps is that fact that Jesus appeared to Paul. Paul hated Christians and was hell-bent on destroying the church. What transformed him from a persecutor of Christians to a pastor, who was willing to endure extraordinary hardship to proclaim the Gospel? Paul claimed it was the resurrection. This also indicates that Jesus didn’t just appear to friends or followers who might have been predisposed to think high and exalted things about him. Christ appeared to skeptics (James) and unbelievers (Paul) and they were convinced based on the reality of the resurrection”
Erik Manning “Virtually no critic today thinks that Paul’s faith wasn’t genuine… The evidence for Paul’s sincerity is overwhelming… Cult leaders like Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and Mohammed had power and married multiple wives. In comparison, Paul clearly wasn’t in it for sex or otherworldly passions.”
3) The Earliness of the message
Justin Bass (NT professor) "Scholars from all different backgrounds... are virtually unanimous that this creedal tradition dates, on average, to within 5 years of Jesus' death (1 Cor 15:3-7 he died for our sins, he appeared other apostles)
Gred Ludemann (atheist nt professor) " The elements in the tradition are to be dated to the first two years after the crucifixion of Jesus, not later than three years... The formation of the appearance traditions mentioned in 1 Cor 15:3-8 falls into the time between 30 and 33 CE" [The Resurrection of Jesus, pg 171-72]
Gary Habermas (Christian Philosopher) "The importance of the creed in 1 Corinthians 15:3b-5 can hardly be overestimated. No longer can it be charged that there is no demonstratable early, eyewitness testimony of the resurrection or for the other important tenets of Christianity, for this creed provides just such evidential data concerning the facts of the Gospel, which are the very centre of the Christian faith"
4) Jesus fulfilled messianic prophecies that were predicted centuries ago
Isaiah 53 was written 600 years before Christ but describes Jesus
The punishment that brought us peace was on him, and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was pierced for our transgressions, for our iniquities. He was led like a Iamb to the slaughter; the Lord makes his life an offering for sin.

The Qur'an was written in the life of the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and it was reviewed by him. But it was not collected in one book but rather scattered (each writer preserved the parts he wrote in his own house). Then when some of those writers was killed in the wars against the Roman and Persian empire the second khalifa Omar ordered that these documents should be collected and gathered in one book but he died before this task was finished. Then Othman (the third khalifa) finished the task, and when he heard that some debates where made about some verses of the Qur'an in some remote parts of the Muslim empire (which where very vast by that time) he ordered that 10 copies is to be produced (by hand of course since printing was not invented) and he sent that copies to the major cities around the empire to be used as reference and ordered that any other copies be burnt out to make sure that only the copies that was authenticated will be used.

What about the different versions of the Quran that were burnt by the Caliph Uthman? Please explain.
Your name.🤗
Masallah brother
I'm new so now disrespect is meant but could the Bible be playing a part in Allah's plan as well. You said that the idea of the trinity was easier for the pagans to accept so could the Bible be doing the same for Islam with it contradictions. In the current time and the future
I am not sure exactly what you mean. But if your intended question is if whether the Biblical contradictions, a way for Muslims to accept truth easier in the sense that Quran accounts for such contributions then yes. As Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says
"[This is] a blessed Book which We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], that they might reflect upon its verses and that those of understanding would be reminded."
Quran 38:29
Therefore we use Quran as a criterion even for the Bible.
Now on the other hand if your intended question is if we use contradiction slandering to make our work easy like the trinity was used to make things easy for the pagans, then you are wrong in that assumption. Quran is al Furqan and several times Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala urged the people of the book to see their books for this guidance i.e. the prophet peace be upon him and the Quran
"Those to whom We have given the Scripture recognize it as they recognize their [own] sons. Those who will lose themselves [in the Hereafter] do not believe."
Quran 6:20
Thereby the Bible is remnants of the scriptures sent to Prophets Moses, David, and Jesus. That have been altered from their original form.
Read books vere important all of us
❤❤❤❤❤❤

Question. You say you have listened to Bart Ehrman on the Bible. Has he said anything on the Quran? Or is there a Bart Ehrman equivalent for the Quran?
He was methodist. Left Christianty when 17 years old. Accepted ISLAM at age 18.

Justin Bass (NT professor) "Scholars from all different backgrounds... are virtually unanimous that this creedal tradition dates, on average, to within 5 years of Jesus' death (1 Cor 15:3-7 he died for our sins, he appeared other apostles)
Gred Ludemann (atheist nt professor) " The elements in the tradition are to be dated to the first two years after the crucifixion of Jesus, not later than three years... The formation of the appearance traditions mentioned in 1 Cor 15:3-8 falls into the time between 30 and 33 CE" [The Resurrection of Jesus, pg 171-72]
Gary Habermas (Christian Philosopher) "The importance of the creed in 1 Corinthians 15:3b-5 can hardly be overestimated. No longer can it be charged that there is no demonstratable early, eyewitness testimony of the resurrection or for the other important tenets of Christianity, for this creed provides just such evidential data concerning the facts of the Gospel, which are the very centre of the Christian faith"
4) Jesus fulfilled messianic prophecies that were predicted centuries ago
Isaiah 53 was written 600 years before Christ but describes Jesus
The punishment that brought us peace was on him, and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was pierced for our transgressions, for our iniquities. He was led like a Iamb to the slaughter; the Lord makes his life an offering for sin. He was despised and rejected by mankind, we considered him punished by God, yet it was the Lord's will to crush him. He poured out his life unto death. After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be satisfied. The righteous servant will justify many, for he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 22:37 (Jesus said) It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’ [Isaiah 53:12]; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”
Isaiah 53:12 because he poured out his life unto death, and WAS NUMBERED WITH THE TRANSGRESSORS. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Luke 24 44 “This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.” 45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46 He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, 47 and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
Norman Geisler (Christian professor) "Hundreds of predictions, some of them given hundreds of years in advance, have been literally fulfilled. The time (Daniel 9), city (Micah 5:2), and nature (Isaiah 7:14) of Christ's birth were foretold in the Old testament, as were dozens of other things about his life, death, and resurrection (Isaiah 53)"..
Watch my 'Jesus will marry and die before Judgement Day' video
so something that caught my attention is that Jesus (PBH) will come back at the end times to kill the anti christ, is God letting jesus (PBH) break one of the commandments by killing. Thou shalt not kill. please some clarification on this
Killing in Islam is allowed, for example killing of enemy in war if the enemy doesn't surrender, killing of a killer , it is called qisas, killing of adulterer by stoning with sufficient evidence, robbers that use weapons. Anyway Jesus@ Isa will follow Islamic teaching by Al Quran n from prophet Muhammad S.A.W. all past commandments is null and void. Btw, anti christ @ dajjal is the most evil person in human history. Why should he be given any leniency?
The question is why choose a religion? Did god create religion? No. So let us move from them all and towards a King whom created the Law which holds the world together today such a gravity. Let us move towards his Kingdom his Government that we might know how to govern this Earth!
Best Muslim minister there is brother.
you left one god for another god who you suggest is the same god?????
❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹
PAUL started preaching TRINITY.
my friend, water, can take three forms: liquid, gaseous and solid. In all forms, it is basically the same element...water. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life! NOBODY goes to the Father, except through HIM! Good luck!
It's not the same , these dramatic analogies do not apply to the creator of the universe god is far above from comparing him to anything created, jesus was not god just a messenger sent to Israel
Did Jesus say that or paul??? Because Paul has murdered all the truthful apostles and created the new testament
Why I left Christianity and after 6 years in Islam and trust me I studied in English and Spanish and then when I found out that the quranic Arabic I need the real Arabic when you really take your time it says that Jesus is God and there's this guy who knows the Hebrew the Arabic I mean he's like a tremendous guy he proved to everybody that was there he spoke to them in the Arabic language cuz he speaks it real good and he read it to them in the Quran next thing you know then the son of them and the converting to Christianity me personally I think both religion have some issues I'm not criticizing what you know something we have to go back to the original Aramaic this language is only spoken by a few today and that was the language that this Jesus or Issa whatever you want to call him he spoke
God is greater than jesus in roles
The Quran was written during the lifetime of Prophet Muhammad, with memorization being a top priority for its preservation. You can see an example of this when Caliph Umar accepted Islam by reading the text of the Quran in his sister's house, which highlights the significance of Quranic memorization and written form.
The Quran was initially written on palm leaves and pieces of animal skin, with a primary focus on memorization. Furthermore, Prophet Muhammad reviewed the Quran with the Angel Gabriel once each year, and twice in the last year of his life (Sahih al-Bukhari 3623). After the Prophet Muhammad's death, Caliph Abu Bakr compiled the entire Quran into one place.
Astagforlah quran is world of god mohammed didnt know to write and read how can human know scentific thing that ben proven in 2000

JESUS fully GOD, and fully HUMAN!
لا اله الا الله محمد رسول الله
The Bible itself does not even pretend to be God’s words, but Matthew’s Marc’s, Luke’s and John’s words. Plus, the Bible itself says « Jesus went to preach the Gospel » : so it was definitely not the Bible that Jesus was preaching.
Why God is 3?
He is 3, as YOU are 3.
Father/Abba - is the source from witch all things have come
Example: YOU
Son/word/expression - a expression of the source which can exist away from source
Example: a letter u wrote
A word you say
A picture of you
A song u wrote
A CHILD U HAVE
ANYTHING U CREATE
The spirit: the knowledge wisdom and understand distributed from source threw word(expression)
Example: Even then you die your existence will continue within the spirit/mind and thought
Read red-letters of New TESTAMENT---- words of JESUS.
"i am the lord your god" is actually Echad ( pronounced EHad). in Hebrew the word echad means two things that come together to create one. it means a unified one. Please don't spread that misinformation.
What why are you lying ? Why are u twisting God’s words . Do you even understand Hebrew ? Akhad or Ahad we have it in the Quran it means that God is unitarian GOD is just one . Don’t lie . If a rabbi hears what you said he would curse you because of saying lies about the religion what you said is actually called Polytheism in Both Quran and Torah
After Jesus peace be upon him told them this
They still claim that Jesus is god
Wallahi I feel sorry for Christian’s
Allahu Akbar!
Brother I must say
You look Muslim anyway. A muslim from Turkey - handsome one. May Allab keep you on the right path always.
We aren’t important but Allah is !
I love you for the sake of Allah

Christians believe Jesus Christ is our only hope because He says He alone can take away our sins. Other religions often say you have to fix your own sins, which is impossible. It's like trying to be good but still having to make up for bad things you've done. That doesn't make sense. Jesus is different because He says, "I've taken your sins apon me and died for them." No other religion says that. In other beliefs, like Islam, they say if you do more good things than bad, it might help you after you die. But it's never a definite! Jesus says no good thing we do can take away our sins, so He died to do that for us! Christians follow Him happily because of what He did at that cross! We believe if He hadn't died for us, there would be no hope! Also He's the only God who died and then came back to life!
Who says it's impossible for God to forgive sins? God says in Torah to repent for sins.
