Christianity
The Bible Quest
There has always been a debate about the bible. How authentic it is. Who actually wrote the different books of the bible and so on? Today I am about to reveal another view a critical view of the bible and what it means. This should not be taken as an insult or disrespect by the Christians as I am reading directly from the bible.
In psychology there is a term called programming of the mind. In respect to the bible this can be explained as follows, the Christians coming from different countries have a particular belief, or are programmed in that belief. Irrespective of what they read they will interpret it as what is already programmed. For example If they are programmed that the Bible states Jesus is God then even if Jesus were to say in the bible that he is a prophet the reader will interpret it as Jesus is God. I will not go into details as we all know the different opinions and views that make one church different from the other. They all have one common book the bible and yet still interpret it convincingly to promote their own views and claim accuracy and superiority over the others.
Today the point of view that I am about to present is my understanding of historical and literal interpretations of the bible. The programming so far that is understood of the Christians is as follows:
1. Jesus is the son of god. 2. He came to take away sin as God cannot see the pain and suffering of his creation. 3. Anyone who accepts him will be saved and all sins forgiven. 4. The trinity of god. 5. The bible is the true word of god. Every word of the bible is correct. 6. That Jesus was born on the 25th of Dec, Santa clause exists, Easter,eggs, bunnies and pass over.
Let us take a moment here and grasp everything that Christianity stands for.
Now look back at all of these claims one by one. Every year around Christmas time journalists around the world research the true facts surrounding the actual historical facts of the birth of Jesus. They tell us Jesus was not born on 25th Dec and that this date actually is a pagan roman god`s birthday called Mithras. Emperor Constantine the creator of Christianity and the one who presided the Council of Nicaea which eventually brought in the concept of Trinity and the modern Christianity as we know it. Constantine promoted this new religion as it was new and was growing strong and his ambitions to rule over the entire Rome needed the support of such a large religious group. So he stopped the persecutions of the then new religion which Paul had introduced into Rome and got their alliance and achieved his ambitions of ruling the entire Rome under the symbol of the cross. He did not accept the new religion until his death bed and in the duration of his life time he made major changes to this new religion giving it 25th December the birth day of Mithras the deity of his nation among other pagan deities and attributing it as Christian. Easter and Passover are also Roman pagan holidays. The Zionist Jews have been in control of the old scriptures and have mutilated and manipulated them to such an extent that they have lost their true values as a word of God. The Satan worshippers have influenced our entire world. The days of the week are also to this day dedicated to pegan gods. For example the day Friday is also called the day of Fri a pegan god. But every time the Christians dust it off saying Christmas is all about loving and caring and not about the actual birth of Christ. And yet there are sermons at every church celebrating the birth of Christ, every Christian educated or not, blindly follows these rituals religiously. We can historically prove that Jesus couldn't have been born on 25 and all of the Christian celebrations are actually pagan gods and festival. How did we get to adopt it is a historical quest for truth.
Pagan roots of Christianity
Bible Myths and their Parallels in other Religions by Thomas Doane 1882 "This shows that the heathen in those days, did as the Christians do now. What have evergreens, and garlands, and Christmas trees, to do with Christianity? Simply nothing. It is the old Yule-feast which was held by all the northern nations, from time immemorial, handed down to, and observed at the present day. In the greenery with which Christians deck their houses and temples of worship, and in the Christmas-trees laden with gifts, we unquestionably see a relic of the symbols by which our heathen forefathers signified their faith in the powers of the returning sun to clothe the earth again with green, and hang new fruit on the trees."
Early Christmas Carols and Customs in the Bostonian 1896 "Coming at practically the same time as the Roman Saturnalia and the Northern feast of Yule, the respective heathen customs of these two old festivals at once became inculcated into that of Christmas, almost as they stood."
Traditions of Eden; or, Proofs of the Historical Truth of the Pentateuch by Henry Shepherd 1871 "And in pursuance of this idea, the Christmas festival of the Sun-god — identical with Nimrod, Tammuz or Adonis, and also with Bacchus — was celebrated in ancient Babylon for ages before the Christian era. It was identical with the Saturnalia of Rome, and kept with similar scenes of drunkenness and revelry. The wassailing bowl of Christmas, of the dark ages in Popish countries, had its precise counterpart in the Drunken festival of Babylon."
Religion, Theology and Morals By Harvey W Scott 1917 "But every custom and every doctrine of long standing has departed far from its original. The Christinas festival, in its main featiires, relates more to paganism, so-called, than to Christianity. The genesis of the Holy Trinity is traceable, through ecclesiastical and personal disputes, through politics and speculative philosophy, back to Philo and Plato; and the paganism of old Rome, transformed more or less, is still reflected through the Vatican."
The Galaxy Magazine 1878 Christmas brings us, with its religious ceremonies, festivities, and pleasant customs which, it is to be hoped that advancing rationalism will never cause to be forgotten. Yet it is worth while, at least for descendants of the Puritans, to remember that the 25th of December is probably not the date of Christ's birth; there being reason for believing that he was born in the Spring of the year, a fitting season it would seem for such an event; and that our festivities at Christmas are of pagan origin— the dressing of houses with greens being a Druidical custom, and the giving of gifts being a remnant of the Roman Saturnalia. The feast of Yule, now confounded with that of Christmas, was observed at the Winter solstice by all the Northern nations long before the introduction of Christianity.
The New Schaff-Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge Vol. 12, 1912 "It has also been conjectured that the day was selected because of its significance in the Roman calendar, where it bore the name of dies invicti solia, "the day of the unconquered sun", since on this day the sun began to regain its power and overcame the night."
The Two Babylons by Alexander Hislop, excerpt: "It is in the last degree incredible, then, that the birth of Christ could have taken place at the end of December. There is great unanimity among commentators on this point. Besides Barnes, Doddridge, Lightfoot, Joseph Scaliger, and Jennings, in his "Jewish Antiquities," who are all of opinion that December 25th could not be the right time of our Lord's nativity, the celebrated Joseph Mede pronounces a very decisive opinion to the same effect. After a long and careful disquisition on the subject, among other arguments he adduces the following;--"At the birth of Christ every woman and child was to go to be taxed at the city whereto they belonged, whither some had long journeys; but the middle of winter was not fitting for such a business, especially for women with child, and children to travel in. Therefore, Christ could not be born in the depth of winter. Again, at the time of Christ's birth, the shepherds lay abroad watching with their flocks in the night time; but this was not likely to be in the middle of winter. And if any shall think the winter wind was not so extreme in these parts, let him remember the words of Christ in the gospel, 'Pray that your flight be not in the winter.' If the winter was so bad a time to flee in, it seems no fit time for shepherds to lie in the fields in, and women and children to travel in." Indeed, it is admitted by the most learned and candid writers of all parties * that the day of our Lord's birth cannot be determined, ** and that within the Christian Church no such festival as Christmas was ever heard of till the third century, and that not till the fourth century was far advanced did it gain much observance."
Sex and Sex Worship by Otto Augustus Wall 1920 EDIT The egg has in all ages been considered a sacred emblem of spring; of the rejuvenation of nature after the winter sleep. In Pagan times ornamented eggs were presented to friends, to celebrate the re-awakening of life in the spring; and this Pagan festival, but thinly disguised as being emblematic of the resurrection of Christ, persists in our Easter festival and its attendant gifts of Easter eggs.
Christmas: Its Origin And Associations, Together With Its Historical Events And Festive Celebrations During Nineteen Centuries By W. F. Dawson 1902 (Searchable Pdf) Esoteric Christianity, Or, The Lesser Mysteries: Or, The Lesser Mysteries by Annie Wood Besant 1913"The relation of the winter solstice to Jesus is also significant. The birth of Mithras was celebrated in the winter solstice with great rejoicings, and Horus was also then born: "His birth is one of the greatest mysteries of the [Egyptian] religion. Pictures representing it appeared on the walls of temples. . . . He was the child of Deity. At Christmas time, or that answering to our festival, his image was brought out of the sanctuary with peculiar ceremonies, as the image of the infant Bambino is still brought out and exhibited at Rome." On the fixing of the 25th December as the birthday of Jesus, Williamson has the following: "All Christians know that the 25th December is now the recognised festival of the birth of Jesus, but few are aware that this has not always been so. There have been, it is said, one hundred and thirty-six different dates fixed on by different Christian sects. Lightfoot gives it as 15th September, others as in February or August.
STUDIES IN THE PSYCHOLOGY OF SEX VOLUME I BY HAVELOCK ELLIS 1927 (searchable PDF) "Frazer (Golden Bough, 2d ed., 1900, vol. iii, pp. 236-350) fully describes and discusses the dances, bonfires and festivals of spring and summer, of Halloween (October 31), and Christmas. He also explains the sexual character of these festivals."Pagan Christs: Studies in Comparative Hierology by John Mackinnon Robertson 1903 "The Mithraic Christians actually continued to celebrate Christmas Day as the birthday of the sun, despite the censures of the Pope, and their Sunday had been adopted by the supplanting faith. When they listened to the Roman litany of the holy name of Jesus, they knew they were listening' to the very epithets of the Sun-God...Others than Mithraists, of course, would offend, Christmas being an Osirian and Adonisian festival also.
The Evolution of Spiritism, from "Continuity of Life a Cosmic Truth" by William Maynard Lockwood 1902
"Easter is one of the oldest feast days known to the calendar of time, and by an act of the Nicene Council in 325 A. D. this pagan day of phallic worship and incest, was fastened upon future generations by a born pagan who lived and died a pagan, and who during his earth life was titled, "CONSTANTINE THE GREAT, PONTIFIX MAXIMUS, EMPEROR AND SUPREME DIGNITARY OF THE PAGAN HIERARCHY.""
The Great Law: A Study of Religious Origins and of the Unity Underlying Them by William Williamson 1899
The very name by which our spring festival is called, is traced by Landseer to the virgin-mother of this Babylonian sun-god; for what is Easter but a modem version of the old names of Ishtar, Ashtoreth, and Astarte?
A Critical Review and Analysis of the Evidence of His Existence John E. Remsberg 1909
The festival of Easter belongs to this religion. It was observed in honor of the Saxon goddess Eastre, or Ostara, the goddess of Spring. It celebrated, not the resurrection of Christ, but the resurrection of Spring and flowers. It still retains the name of this goddess. Nearly every festival of the church -- and the Catholic and English churches have many -- are of Pagan origin.
The mystical woman and the cities of the nations, Or Papal Rome by Thomas Dennis Rock 1890
"Easter," alias Ishta, Ashta, or Astarte (the woman). Easter, as now celebrated by the Roman Church, with its carnivals and six weeks Lent, was unknown, even at Rome, till so late as about the middle of the sixth century. But a feast, preceded by a forty days fast, seems to have been observed in ancient times by the Heathen world; as in Egypt, also to this day by the Yezidis of Kurdistan, and Mr. Hislop evidently thinks this feast had some reference to the commemorative weepings in honour of Tammuz.
The Young Woman's Journal (Latter Day Saints) 1919
The term Easter was first used when Christianity was introduced among the Saxons and the poet-historian, Bede, traces it to Easter, a Saxon goddess, whose festival was celebrated annually in the Spring. This is another example of the way the early Christian Church was influenced by the paganism with which it came in contact.
The Book of Common Prayer, the American prayer book, and the three revisions By Bernard Homer Dixon Even the hot cross buns of Good Friday are Pagan, and were made and marked with the cross of Tammuz, and called " boun," ages before the Christian era. Then they were offered to Tammuz and eaten by the priests. Now we eat them ourselves. Two were discovered in Herculaneum. The wafer used in the Roman Mass is identical with the thin round cake called Kollyris which they formerly offered to Astarte.
Tracts for the times respecting ritualism By Bourchier Wrey Savile 1877 "Few persons in England seem to know that the eating of "hot-cross buns" at Easter is another Pagan custom, which has come down to us from our heathen Saxon ancestors, who used to worship Astarte (from which our word Easter is derived), and offer cakes to her as "Queen of Heaven."
A Few Mistakes of Rev. Dr. Newman (Catholic World) 1886 But what does this Christian clergyman mean when he inferentially assumes that Christmas-time is but the pagan "Saturnalia"; that Easter-time is the pagan festival of spring; that "Candlemas Day" is copied from a feast in honor of the goddess Neith...
Christianity by Annie Besant 1893 "Thus we find that the cardinal doctrines and the ceremonies of Christianity are of purely Pagan origin, and that "Christianity" was in existence long ages before Christ."
The first century followers of Jesus did not believe that Jesus was the son of God. Books of the Bible that are not included in today Bible are proof of this and the reason they were thrown out is because the verses of these books do not conform with the concepts of trinity or of Jesus being the son of God. Books written by the brother of Jesus, James are thrown out even though historically a brother`s statement would hold more ground than anyone else. Christianity can be said to have been formally introduced to the world by Emperor Constantine around 330 AD. Paul had introduced Christianity to the Romans and the surrounding regions already. His method of introducing Christianity was unique he used the existing religious ideas and modified it to suit Jesus. Mithraism or God Mithras and Osiris the Persian god are both ancient gods much older than Jesus, their mythology is found to be exactly the same as the Christian ideology existing today. The Christian customs and rituals are the same as these older religions. Emperor Constantine and the council of Nicaea held around 330 AD seem to have influenced the present day Christianity a lot. Constantine worshipped Mithras and his birthday was celebrated on the 25 of December, a Roman public holiday.
Most of the Christian holidays Christmas, Easter, Passover with the concepts of easter bunnies and lightings all coincide with pagan religious holidays. So if all of the things Christianity stands for are false than what else is.
Saint Paul (the Deception)
Paul is found to have given this image of Christianity to the Romans. Paul was a Pharisee a Jew who went about persecuting the followers of Jesus, after a supposed vision of Jesus he went about preaching the opposite of that which Jesus had preached and I mean exactly opposite. Jesus in his lifetime always said he came only for the Jews and persistently stayed away from the gentiles and even commanded his disciples to stay away from the gentiles. But Paul made it his mission to preach to the gentiles. Jesus said he had not come to break the law but to keep it. But we have Paul teaching that the old Jewish laws were not suitable for this religion. Paul changed the law to eat everything even those that were previously forbidden to the Jews. Circumcision was also not required for the gentiles in this new religious belief according to Paul.
Jesus preached that he was son of man, a servant of God. And Paul changed him into a God. Even though he was not a disciple of Jesus and did not see him he has written more books of the bible than anyone else. It is through these books or letters that Paul convinces Christians that Jesus is The Son of God. Emperor Constantine develops the trinity to adopt this new religion of Christianity with the existing Mithraism and its mythology. He collected all books of the bible not supporting his belief and burnt books that did not promote his trinity or declares them as heretics. He killed the priests who did not see his views and gave power to the ones who did. Historians claim that Jesus was a man one day and God the other.
The actual disciples, Peter and John had confrontations with Paul on two occasions regarding the teachings of Jesus. All of Jesus’ disciples believed him to be the servant of God, a prophet of God. Certain words were put into the translations of the bible that have changed a prophet of God into the Son of God.
I have a few different bibles at home that I refer to and they all have different translations but the one that I like and recommend others to read is the New International translation version with notes on the side and at the bottom. This Bible is an eye opener. I found it read in many places where there was 'The son of God' in the notes it also reads, can be translated as 'a son of God ' as well. Certain places it said these verses are not found in the old manuscripts. The term 'begotten' which has created all the fuss in John 3:16 is removed stating that it was a mistranslation in another bible. If the bible says, `a son of God` it implies that Jesus was just another prophet just as he had always persistently claimed as a Son of man, a servant of God.
The Ten Commandments
But the moment you replace `a son of God` with 'the son of god'. A normal human being becomes a God. All that which the Old Testament teaches of monotheism is suddenly made False. All those verses where God says there is one God. The First Commandment is forgotten and so is the second.
1. Worship god and like god alone. 2. Do not make or worship idols. Such important commandments and the Christian through it out like it means nothing. The worst part is that the Christians read the bible whether it be in English or any other language changed the essence the religion of Monothiestic belief. The Old Testament has throughout its entirety claimed that there is only one God. JESUS when asked which the greatest commandment is says 'hear o people of Isreal lord Your God is one.' You don't even need to read any other religious book the Bible itself can confirm this fact and Islam clarifies it further.
Jesus Denies He Is God
John 10:32-37: 32Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
33The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
34Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
35If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
36Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am a Son of God?
37If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
When asked by the Jews does he claim to be the son of God? He replies isn't it in the books that he who is given the word of God is a god then why is it then, that when I say I am a son of god that I blaspheme.
Look very closely at what Jesus is stating. This was his opportunity to clarify to the Jews and he does so very clearly. If only the Christians could remove their blindfolds of their blind faith. Nothing can be clearer, Jesus says in the scriptures it is stated that the prophets who were given the word of God were called gods and the Jews should not take his claim of being a son of God as blasphemy because he was indicating an inferior position of a son of God rather than God himself. For those who can contemplate, this verse says it all.
Sins Belong To The Ones Committing Them
Did Jesus come to die for our sins if he did so, then why does he shows reluctance to do so? He prepares his disciples to guard him and be prepared for a fight the night of his capture. He prays to God to take away the vessel or that which was his destiny, or for that matter, his cry for help to God, `Lord, Lord why have you forsaken me,` on the cross.
Even after reading this verse if you think Jesus came to take away your sins then think again. For the bible has dedicated nearly a whole chapter to make this point very clear.
Sin Cannot Be Transfered To Another
Ezekiel 18:19-25: Yet say ye, Why? doth not the son bear the iniquity of the father? When the son hath done that which is lawful and right, and hath kept all my statutes, and hath done them, he shall surely live.
20The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
21But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
22All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.
23Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?
24But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.
25Yet ye say, the way of the LORD is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; is not my way equal? Are not your ways unequal?
God himself in the first person is declaring that it is unequal for one individual to take on the sin of another individual and yet they the Christians claim that Jesus came to take away their sins. This whole chapter dictates no one is responsible for others sins but themselves. No further argument is necessary.
Jesus Was Afraid And Did Not What To Go Through With The Plan
Matthew 26:39 39And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
Miraculous Birth
Concerning Jesus’ miraculous birth, there is no doubt that Jesus was born without a worldly father and it is no doubt a miraculous birth. The fact that Jesus called God, ‘father’ is also a fact but he also called him Lord, God and Eloi as well. Since Jesus did not have a worldly father it was appropriate for him to call God as father. But he did not mean that literally. In the prayer he thought his disciples, Our father who are in heaven.
Jesus was including his followers as his brother and sister and a clearer statement in Mark 3:34-35: Jesus mentions for whoso ever shall do the will of God he is my brother and my sister and mother.
The clearest point regarding Jesus about this point is the statement made by the angel to Mary before his birth When Mary asks how could she conceive when no man had touched her, the angel replies in
Luke 1:(36,37): 36 And behold, your relative Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son, and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren. 37 For nothing will be impossible with God." There is no reason for the angel to mention Elizabeth her cousin who was very old and was also known to be barren. To have conceived at her age and her husband was even older. This was also a miracle of God and for such a God who could create Adam without father or mother, John the Baptism born to aged parents and a barren mother. For Mary to conceive without a man is not impossible. And this is exactly what the angel says to Mary. Surly after reading that verse that concept should be clear.
Jesus’ Confirmed Miracle : Prophecy Of Jonah
Matthew 16:4: 4A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.
Matthew 12:39-40: 39But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:
40For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. (ALIVE)
Did Jesus fulfil his own stated miracle? The one about being in the belly of the earth for 3 days and 3 nights, like Joana was in the belly of a fish for 3 days and 3 nights. Even though Jesus performed many miracles the Jews asked him for a miracle. To them Jesus promised a miracle and this miracle was that he would be in the belly of the earth 3 days and 3 nights just like Joana the prophet was in the belly of a whale for 3 days and 3 nights.
On the onset itself one can tell that the miracle of Joana was that he was ALIVE in the belly of the fish for 3 days and 3 nights and after and that was Prophet Joana`s miracle. Therefore for Jesus to be like Joana he had to be ALIVE in the belly of the earth for 3 days and 3 nights. But if he died then it was not a miracle LIKE Joana. So after Jesus’ alleged crucifixion when he was put into the chamber to fulfil his promise of being like Joana he had to be ALIVE even after 3 days and 3 nights. But when you ask a christian, Was Jesus alive after the three days and three nights? Their answer is an astounding NO. They claim he died for their sins and in answering No, they dismiss the only miracle that Jesus gave the Jews as a definite miracle of JESUS.
Mary was the only disciple who attended Jesus’ crucifixion as all the others had fled according to the bible. Points Pilate did not want to crucifix Jesus. His wife requested him not to harm Jesus. Jesus was crucified for only 3 hours. They didn't break his legs and when he was pierced blood and water flowed from the wound showing that he was still alive and had not died on the cross. Later Jesus was taken to a chamber belonging to a secret wealthy disciple. The chamber was very roomy to support and help Jesus recover. On the 3rd day Mary went alone to the chamber to anointed Jesus. It is not customary to anoint the dead after 3 days and 3 nights in any culture. When she reached she found binding cloth removed and folded neatly and no sign of Jesus. Jesus who was disguised as a gardener to avoid recapture by the Jews, sees Mary and asks `why seek the living among the dead`. (Jesus was alive) An angel also tells Mary that Jesus is alive. When Mary recognizes Jesus and wants to hug him Jesus asks her to stay away because he was still recovering from his ordeal. He even says I am not dead yet.
Peter Says It All
His closest disciple Peter in the book of Acts clears any doubt of what the disciples thought of Jesus. Acts 2:22 Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested (a slave of God in other bibles) to you by God with miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through Him in your midst, just as you yourselves know-- Acts 2:24 But God released him from the horrors of death and raised him back to life, for death could not keep him in its grip.
Jesus Was Raised Alive
Acts 1:3: whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
John makes this point very clear that Jesus was taken up alive for the bible says:
John 3:13-16 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
In Islam we believe Jesus was a prophet and a very unique one at that. As the above verse states, like Moses lifted up the snake, the son of man Jesus woud be lifted up into the heavens meaning literally alive onto the heaven. He was expected to fulfill all the prophecies that were relating to him and when he did not fulfil them the Jews declared that he was an imposter. There were many prophecies that were yet to be fulfilled by Jesus and in God’s infinite wisdom we was to return again onto this earth to fulfil them. He was destined to be lifted up alive into the heavens and sent back after the advent of the Anti Christ to fulfil the remaining prophecies.
Jesus Transfigured
This is an exceptional example of how Jesus was a mere prophet of God and not God Himself. Mark 9:1-4 and Matthew 17:1-4
1And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
In these verses Jesus is transfigured on the top of mountain and takes on his spiritual form his godly form not his earthly form as a human. There, two other prophets Moses and Elias join him and they talk with each other. Peter asks Jesus if he should put up three tents up one for each of the three individuals Jesus, Moses and Elias. From this verse we can easily infer that Peter was seeing the three prophets to be of the same status he did not see Jesus as GOD or Superior or Godly compared to the others but clearly as equals.
Trinity
The Christians read the bible in which God says there is only one God, in the entirety of the Old Testament and then read the New Testament which is considered to be follow up of the same Bible but here the theme is changed into a Trinity. There are no clear or direct statements either by God or by Jesus to say that there are three. Jesus did not make even one equivocal statement in the Bible, where he said, I am God worship me. Nor one verse where he says he came to sacrifice himself for the sins of all mankind. On the contrary he has always said he was Son of Man, and that he does everything not by his own power but with the power of God.
“Another serious mistake in the King James and New King James versions is in 1 John 5:7-8. The latter part of verse 7 and first part of verse 8 did not appear in the Greek texts for the first 1,000 years after the Scriptures were completed. Around the year 500 this portion appeared in the Latin version known as the Vulgate. Apparently the insertion was an attempt to bolster the then-controversial belief in the Trinity. The words added are as follows: "in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness on earth."
None of the Greek manuscripts of the New Testament up to the year 1300 contain these words. "The textual evidence is all against 1 John 5:7. Of all the Greek manuscripts, there are only two which contain it. These two manuscripts are of very late dates, one from the fourteenth or fifteenth century and the other from the sixteenth century. Both, clearly show this verse to be translated from the Latin" (Neil Lightfoot, How We Got the Bible, 1963, pp. 57-58). Apparently monks who copied the Greek New Testament text in the 14th or 15th century added this verse from the Vulgate. Even the Catholic Jerusalem Bible admits this verse is not authentic and has left it out. Notes in the Jerusalem Bible explain that this was a marginal note in one of the copies of the Vulgate that was added to the late Greek manuscripts already mentioned. The verse from 1 John 5 should read, as hundreds of the oldest Greek texts and most modern translations read: "In fact there are three witnesses, the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three are in agreement" (Revised English Bible). This refers to the witness of Jesus Christ being the Son of God (verse 5).
Another Bible by Ferrar Fenton in 1905 states clearly those sections of the bible which were in brackets as marginal notes later were added on as the word of god.
John 3:16-21, Ferrar Fenton is clearly stating in his Bible that it is a marginal note of an Evangelist priest.

Therefore all those preachers arguing about the accuracy of the bible and that every word of the bible is the word of God need to get their head around these very serious issues with the Bible and see where they are being led to and by whom. The Zionists have been in control of your beliefs from the very onset of the bible publications and they have made major changes to the text and given the people what they wanted to give and kept you away from the truth. They have kept you away from Islam because they knew that Truth will be seen through and through. Even though Islam is a 1400 years old religion how much of this religion do you know and what are its teachings. This religion has been demonised by the western media for decades and yet Islam is the fastest growing religion in the western countries. It had been labelled as a terroristic religion and yet when educated individuals take it on themselves to investigate this claim they end up belonging to it. It is the educated and the religiously starved individuals who are looking into the religion and finding themselves faced with a totally opposite view and end up converting to Islam.
(See Authentic New Testament). Footnote: While much that was in his documentary source (the Memoirs of John the Priest) has been adapted by the Greek author to bring the text into line with his ideas, as here, some passages, largely by way of commentary, stand out as his distinctive contribution. Whenever possible, attention has been drawn to these, as in this instance and some have been placed below the main body of the text and in slightly smaller type. The present passage is John 3:16-21. [This passage has been so placed by the translator].
The Ferrar Fenton Bible translation has the following in bracket indicating that the verse WAS ADDED BY THE TRANSLATORS at some point in time. It appears that John 3:16 was not in the original Gutenberg Bible.
In the New Testament there are many errors in translations, some of these which may be considered as major flaws are as follows:
As Michael Swan says on his web site “The way vocabulary is organised in discourse may differ from one culture and its language to another.”
“The English structure I like X is structurally and semantically straightforward, but problematic if one is coming at it from Spanish or Italian: me gusta X and mi piace X have a misleadingly similar word order to the English structure, but require the liked thing rather than the 'liker' as subject.”
Examples for such a blunder are places in the bible where Jesus is saying god and himself are one which leads to believe that Jesus is God but in fact it simply means that they both agree on the same thing. Here are some examples from the bible verses.
The Christians always bring forth verses from the bible that Jesus said such and such and it means he is God or son of god.
Father In Me
John 14:20: On that day you will realise that i am in my father and you are in me, and i am in you.
14 In One
John 17:21-24: 21That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
23I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
24Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
John 17:11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.
I And The Father Are One
John 10:27-30 "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. I and the Father are one." John 17:21-23: "... that all of them may be one, Father, just as You are in me and I am in You. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that You have sent me. I have given them the glory that You gave me, that they may be one as we are one: I in them and You in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that You sent me and: have loved them even as You have loved me." The oneness or agreement is in the ideal and belief. Here, it is the Greek word hen which has been translated as 'one'. This word is never the oneness in essence; it is the oneness in the attitude of co-operation that is implied here.
Jesus Was A Prophet
Matthew 21:46 They looked for away to arrest him, but they were afraid of the crowd because the people held that he was a prophet. (This is what the people of his time believed Jesus to be a prophet)
Luke 24:19 19And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people.
Mark 6:4: 4But Jesus, said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.
Matthew 21:11 11And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.
Matthew 21:46 46But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.
Luke 7:39: Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.
Luke 7:16 And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people.
Jesus Clears All Confusion
JOHN 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to My Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
Don’t the Christians read the bible!! this is plain English translated from the original scriptures and yet a statement like this by Jesus himself stating His father is your father and his god is your god. Jesus in this verse is talking to Mary who was looking for Jesus, When she recognises that the person in disguise as a gardener was in fact Jesus, she goes and hugs him and Jesus replies Don’t touch me because he was still recovering from his ordeal and may have been battered and bruised all over and tells her He is not dead yet and did not ascend to God. But most importantly he states I ascend to My Father and Your Father and to My God and Your God. Plainly he is not GOD or a SON of GOD and this is another clear verse that explains that Jesus did not claim divinity.
The Quran relates to the answer of Jesus when ask by God Almighty as to what he taught his desciples and Jesus replies:
Qur'aan 5:119-120 "and(remember)when Allah will say(on the day of resurrection):'o isa(jesus),son of maryam (mary)!did u say to men:'worship me and my mother as two gods besides allah?'he will say."glorified are u!it was not for me to say what i had no right (to say).had i said such a thing,u would surely have known it.u know what is in my inner-self thought i do not know what is in urs,truly,u,only u,r the all-knower of all that is hidden (and unseen)."Never did I say to them aught except what u (Allah) did command me to say:'Worship Allah,My Lord and Your Lord.'and i was awitness over them while i dwelt amongst them,but when u took me up,u were the watcher over them,and u are awitness to all things.
Jesus Didn't Make All Food Legal
Mark 7:13-23 7:13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
7:14 And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them, Hearken unto me every one of you, and understand:
7:15 There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.
7:16 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
7:17 And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
7:18 And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him;
7:19 Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all
meats?
7:20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
7:21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
7:22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride,
foolishness:
7:23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
The context of the verse is not Food at all it is the tradition. The Jews were following tradition and had forgeten the Law. The food was given as an example to state that what comes out of the heart is what defiles a human and not what he eats.
Islam The True Succession After Jesus
Muslims are better followers of Jesus than Christians, as we follow all of the things taught by Jesus in his life and are reiterated by Prophet Muhammad and some of these are mentioned below:
Pray With Prostration
Matthew 26:39 39 Going a little further, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will."
Matthew 17:6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.
Moses and other prophets have also been described to have fallen on their faces and prayed to God. For the Muslims this is the form of prayer taught by Prophet Muhammad.
Judgment Day or Resurrection
Matthew 22:30 30 At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.
John 5:28 "Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice 29 and come out--those who have done good will rise to live, and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned.
The Quran talks about the judgement day quite frequently and belief in it is a prerequisite of accepting Islam.
Do Not Drink Wine
Ephesians 5:18 18 Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.
Proverb 20:1 1.Wine is a mocker and beer a brawler; whoever is led astray by them is not wise.
Islam forbids consumption of Alcohol. The prophet (Pbuh) went further and said what is forbidden in larger quantities is forbidden in small quantities as well. So in other words nothing full stop.
Do Not Eat Pig
Leviticus 11;7-8 And the pig though it has a split hoof completely divided does not chew the cud it is unclean for you must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses they are unclean for you.
Deuteronomy 14;8 The pig is also unclean although it has a split hoof it does not chew the cud you are not to eat their meat or touch their carcasses.
Islam forbids the consumption of Pig and the same law applies as above.
Islamic Greeting Of Peace (Salam O Alaikum)
Luke 24:36 36 While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you." (Solom = peace)
John 20:21-21. Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! (Solom) As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.”
John 20:26 After eight days His disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors having been shut, and stood in their midst and said, “Peace be with you.” (Solom)
Islam is the only religion that has a similar greeting of peace as Jesus did. Jesus as a Jew would have followed the following laws of Moses besides the Ten Commandments as well because this is what he said to his disciples:
Matthew 5:17(Jesus did not preach against or opposite to the laws of Moses.) 17. “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfil them. 18.For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.
19.Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Muslims The True Disciples Of Jesus
As Muslims we follow all of the mentioned acts as stated below:
1. Jesus believed that there is only one God.
2. He did not worship any idol in any form or kind for worship.
3. He removed his shoes when in holy places of worship.
4. He believed in angels and demons.
5. He believed in the hereafter, heaven and hell.
6. He believed in the Judgement day.
7. He believed good deeds will take you to Heaven and bad deeds will put you in Hell.
8. He believed in the scriptures sent down before him through other prophets.
9. He would have been circumcised as were all Jews.
10. He would not have eaten Pork (pig) in any form.
11. He abstained from Alcohol and wine.
12. Jesus would have bled the animals before consumption, as blood was also prohibited for the Jews (Kosher).
13. He would have also abstained from usury (interest) as this was forbidden to the Jews.
And there are many more…….
The Allah Riddle
Elohim is the name of God mentioned in the Bible 2,700 or more places in the Old Testament in the Hebrew language along with a few other names. Elohim is a Noun expressed in the plural but is actually, singular. The Jews used to call God, ‘Elloi’ or ‘Ella’. Jesus on the cross is quoted to have said ‘Elli, Elli, lama sabajtani’, ‘Lord Lord, why have you forsaken me’. The Ella or Elli sounds very similar to Allah when compared to the sister language Hebrew (Aramaic) and Arabic. Both are the same name of God expressed in a different dialect.
Elohim can be said to be ‘Eloh’+ ‘im’, by adding the ‘im’ the noun takes on a majestic form or even a superlative of excellence. For example, when the Queen of England declares something she would use ‘We’ instead of ‘I’ in the declaration. Many other languages have similar usage called the Majestic Plural or also called ‘pluralis excellentiae’ (plural of excellence). It is most commonly used to denote the excellence, power, and dignity of the person that speaks or writes. The Bible and The Qur’an, also have such verses, where God Almighty uses the Majestic Plural and refers to himself in the ‘We’ form. The Muslims are made very clear in the Qur’an that God is One. The Bible is also quite clear about this fact, but the Trinitarians have used this Majestic Plural used by God in the bible to denote their view of God as a trio. A perfect example to explain this further is the mention of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the bible.
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) mentioned by name in the Bible
Song of Solomon 5:16 His mouth is sweetness itself; he is altogether lovely (Muhammadim). This is my lover, this friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.
Where Prophet Solomon is praising the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), and mentions the name of Muhammad by name. He mentions as “Muhammedim”, in the original Hebrew language. Which are ‘Muhammad’ + ‘im’ denoting the excellence of the Prophet Muhammad? No one was aware of this as the name was not familiar to those at the time of translating and therefore translated it as ‘altogether lovely’. The word has been translated as ‘altogether lovely’ in the English bibles but when seen in Hebrew the word is very clear and since there is no exact translation in Hebrew you will not find the actual translation but is made to understand as ‘altogether lovely’. Therefore to conclude the name Allah is not just a name the Muslims use but has been in use since its first use in Genesis 1:1, the very beginning of the Old Testament.

Allah the one True God
The word Hallelujah or Halleluyah can be derived to be two words as well. Ella - Yah. The Word Ella or Elli or Allah has already been explained to be the name of God. Halleluyah is translated ‘alleluia’ in the King James Version. The term Allāh is derived from a contraction of the Arabic definite article al- "the" and ilāh "deity, god" to al-lāh meaning "The [sole] Deity, God" (ὁ θεὸς μόνος, ho theos monos).[8] Cognates of the name "Allāh" exist in other Semitic languages, including Hebrew and Aramaic.[9] Biblical Hebrew mostly uses the plural form (but functional singular) Elohim. The Aramaic word for "God" in the language of the New Testament is Ĕlāhā, or Alaha in later Syriac, as used by Assyrian Christians. Ella Or even Alla are all representative of the same word. The word "hallelu" is the plural form, and "halleluhu" is the imperative form of the word. The Word Jah or Yah is a Persian or Hebrew grammatical extension, expressing magnanimity. It also often appears at the end of Israelite theophoric names such as Isaiah "yeshayah (u), Yahweh is salvation" and Jeremiah "yirmeyah (u), Yahweh is exalted". Many Hebrew words have this extension and it is not the name YAWH as incorrectly derived as this can be explained by the following words which also have the same extension. For example "merchav" means space, "merchavyah" means a vast space (Psalms 118:5); "shalhevet" means flame, "shalhevetyah" means a colossal flame (Song of Songs 8:6). This clearly shows that the word YAWH translated by many is incorrect and out of context.
The word Yah or Jah is used before a word a noun or verb in Hebrew and in Persian and Arabic this Yah is used before the noun or verb. As many Chapters have been named similar to, Ya-Seen, 36th chapter in the Qur’an and also Ya-Allah the glorified form of Allah.
So every time a Christian says Halleluyah he is Praising Allah or saying Ya-Allah if understood correctly as all Muslims praise Allah in the same manner, showing how close we are in our beliefs.
Who are the followers of Jesus?
Muslims are more Christian than Christians themselves as we follow all of Prophet Jesus’ (pbuh) teachings while the Christians are more like the followers of Paul. All of the teachings taught by Paul, as christian, are opposite to those of that which Jesus taught his disciples. For example no circumcision is necessary while it is a necessity for the Jews and the Muslims as a covenant with God an the only diety for worship.Food is made permissible, while the restrictions are still applicable to the Muslims and the Jews. Worship of Idols was introduced by Paul while Prophet Jesus and Muhammad (pbuh) both followed only One God ideology and no image form of worship was permitted.
So who are the Christians following? If this is what Jesus said, Matthew 5:17 he has not come to change the old laws, already quoted above? Then are you not breaking the law which Jesus has professed against.
Wake up to your own religion and follow it correctly. The Bible has always prophesised the coming of prophets before their coming. Jesus was mistaken for the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the prophecies in the scriptures. Many of the prophecies that were pertaining to the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) were applied to Jesus and even after Jesus made it clear that his mission was only to the Jews and not to the gentiles, this message is lost.
Jesus Was Sent Only For The Jews
Matthew 10:5-7: 5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
6But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Jesus Denies Help To A Gentile
Matthew 15:22-28: 22And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him,
Saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
26 But he answered and said, it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs, which fall from their masters' table.
28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.
Jesus Came For The Jews
Matthew27:11 11 And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him,
saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest
What Was The Job Given To Jesus
John 17:1-4:1These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:
2As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
3And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
4I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
These verses of the Bible clearly state that the Job that God gave Jesus was complete long before his crucifixion or ascending to heaven, Being that he glorified God and came to save the Jews.
Jesus Does’nt Pray For The World
John 17:6-10: 6I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.
7Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.
8For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
9I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.
10And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
Even here Jesus in his own words clearly denies having come for the redemption of the whole world and states he came for the selected few JEWS and not the whole world. I cannot believe the Christians read all this in plain English and still go about in their blind faith.
Jesus Came And Died For The Jews
Peter clearly believed that Jesus came only for the Jews and for Israel.
Acts 5:29-31:29 But Peter and the apostles replied, We must obey God rather than any human authority.
30 The God of our ancestors raised Jesus from the dead after you killed him by hanging him on a cross.[a]
31 Then God put him in the place of honor at his right hand as Prince and Savior. '''He did this so the people of Israel would repent of their sins and be forgiven'''
Matthew 1:21 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.(Jews)
Jesus Talks About The Power Of Faith
Mark 5:25-34 25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,
5:26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,
5:27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.
5:28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.
5:29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.
5:30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?
5:31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
5:32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.
5:33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
5:34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.
Jesus has in many places stated that if we had true faith we could make the fig tree walk or walk on the sea as he did, things which were supernatural. The condition is that one should have faith and in today’s world we see exactly this, people who have faith in a stone idol find miracles not necessarily meaning that they are right in their beliefs but just the strength of their faith. There are other factors in play as well things such as Satan our open enemy wants us to go astray and not find the one true God and therefore he uses the power of the Jinn or the Demons to lead us away from our true God.
Islam Brought The New Laws Prophesised
“It was the opinion of the nation concerning the Messiahs, that he would bring in a new law, but not at all to the prejudice or damage of Moses and the prophets: but that he would advance the Mosaic law to the very highest pitch, and would fulfil those things that were foretold by the prophets, and that according to the letter, even to the greatest pomp.” A Commentary on the New Testament from the Talmud and Hebraica John Lightfoot (1602-1675) Exercitations upon the Gospel of St. Matthew Chapter 5.
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was the prophet who was prophesised in the bible to bring in the new laws that would advance the Mosaic laws with the Qur’an, but this again was attributed to Jesus, mistakenly even though he did not give any new laws to the Jews or his disciples by himself and stated that he did not come to change the law but to fulfil it. The Quran brought with it Islam, a whole new way of life. Jesus also said I have many things to tell you but you cannot bear them now but when he the spirit of truth shall come he will lead you to all truth.
The Prophet For The Gentiles
Matthew 12:17 17. That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying,
18 Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.
19He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets. 20A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory. 21And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
The prophecy of prophet Muhammad (pbuh) came true as a prophet for the Gentiles and the whole world, with the new law and warnings to the people of the scriptures, Jews and Christians.
Isaiah 56:6 6. Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
7Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.
8The Lord GOD which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
Mecca The Holy Place Of Worship
Mecca is mentioned in the Bible as the place of worship for All, gentiles as well as people of the book. Jesus is saying that neither the mountain temple on Gerizim, in Samaritan nor Jerusalem will be a place for worship in the future. Prophet Muhammad was ordered by God to make Mecca the place of worship which Abraham built for worship, with his son Ishmael that all Muslims of the world of Gentiles worship.
John 4:21 Jesus declared, “Believe me, woman, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
Jesus Predicts The Coming Prophet Muhammad
Jesus, himself, speaks of the coming prophet Muhammad, and says:
1John 4:2. 2Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
3And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
(Spirit of God here is a prophet of God) Not only did the Prophet Muhammad PBUH acknowledge the mission of Jesus as a prophet of God and respect the Gospel given to him ‘Injeel’ as one of the four books revealed to the world from God the Almighty, but mentions the story of Mary the mother of Jesus in the Quran, with a Chapter dedicated to her name in it. As a religion Islam is the only religion that acknowledge the miraculous birth of Jesus and his mission as a prophet and his second coming is one of the 10 major signs of the end of the world.
John 14:15-17 15If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that, he may abide with you forever; (Comforter(Word: paraklhtoj Pronounc: par-ak'-lay-tos Strong: G3875 Orig: an intercessor, consoler:--advocate, comforter.)
17Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
We can see here that Jesus is neither the spirit of truth nor the comforter nor the Counsellor. Jesus is prophesising of the coming prophet Mohammad and what it is that he is going to be giving to his people a new set of laws. That he will be an illiterate and will give out that which he will hear.
John 14:26But the Counsellor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. (Holy Spirit is the Angel Gabriel.)
John 14:29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.
30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. (Prince of this world here is Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
John 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me.
(The word Spirit of Truth is actually a name, a title, bestowed onto the Prophet Muhammad as "The Truthful". This is the definition explained in the Greek lexicon for the word ‘truth’ indicating the Prophet Muhammad PBUH).

John 16 7-15 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, 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.
15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
This is common knowledge that our Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was not learned or literate and that whatever the Angel Gabriel told him he passed on and is now the Holy Qur’an. There is a whole chapter on the birth and life of Jesus in the Qur’an called Marium or Mary, the mother of Jesus. The Quran is the new book of Laws and knowledge given to mankind through Muhammad Pbuh.
God's words In His Mouth Muhammad (pbuh)
The Qur’an is the only religious book that acknowledges that Jesus came and is a prophet of God. No other religion makes it an article of faith to accept and believe all previous prophets such as Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon, Jesus and Prophet Muhammad (pbut) all. With so many things in common between the two religions it is quite easy to see that Islam is the continuation of the same religion that Jesus preached. There are many prophecies pertaining to the coming of Prophet Muhammad in the bible. In the verse below Moses is told by God that God will raise a prophet from among their brethren (Ishmaelite). God says I will put my words in his mouth. And As Prophet Muhammad was an Ishmaelite and an illiterate God send his word through Angel Gabriel and the Qur’an was sent through him. Here the Jews are told about the coming of the prophet from among Ishmaelite who will receive the word of God and give it to people.
Deuteronomy 18:15-18 15 The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own brothers. You must listen to him.
16 For this is what you asked of the Lord your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly when you said, “Let us not hear the voice of the Lord our God nor see this great fire anymore, or we will die.” 17 The Lord said to me: “What they say is good.
18 I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers (the brothers of Jews are Ishmaelite); I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him.
19 If anyone does not listen to my words that the prophet speaks in my name, I myself will call him to account.
20 But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded him to say, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, must be put to death.”
21 You may say to yourselves, “How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the Lord?”
22 If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the Lord does not take place or come true, that is a message the Lord has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously. Do not be afraid of him.
I am deeply concerned for my Jewish and Christian brethren, who the Qur’an calls people of the books. The Jews and the Christians, the Jews are still monotheistic and follow only one God, but the Christians have gone astray. The fundamental commandments of God the Almighty are forgotten. The first three of the Ten Commandments are as follows:
Exodus 20:1“I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. 3 “You shall have no other gods before Me. 4 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image—any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 5 you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me.
These commandments are very clear and apply for all time, there is only one God.
Isaiah 43:10 10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. 11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.
Isaiah 45:55 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: 6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else.
Jesus Will Shun Away From The Christians
Here is the final clear statement from Jesus to the Christians themselves not to the rest of the world but directly to the Christians
Matthew 7:22-25 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
In these verses Jesus is making a bold statement and is directed to the future Christians who are performing miracles and curing in Jesus’ name and doing wonderful work, the ones who have strong faith in the Christian beliefs and faith. When they go to Jesus on that day of his second coming he is going to say to them Go away I don’t know you, you that work inequity. He is not telling Go Away to a small number of Christians but as the verse states MANY and he gives them an example and says listen to my words and be like that wise man that built his house upon a rock and explains how if the house is built on sand it will fall compared to a house built on a rock. What Jesus is saying is not very difficult to understand. Jesus is telling the Christians to build their faith and religion on solid facts and not on flimsy and manmade ideals and philosophies. Christianity is that religion that has lost millions of its followers due to its flimsy and false ideas. The Quran states: The bible is based on vague knowledge and conjecture.
Quran 16:64 “And We have revealed the Scripture unto thee only that thou mayst explain unto them that wherein they differ, and (as) a guidance and a mercy for a people who believe.”
Quran 2:111 And they claim, [89] "None shall ever enter paradise unless he be a Jew" - or, "a Christian". Such are their wishful beliefs! SAY: "Produce an evidence for what you are claiming, [90] if what you SAY is true!"
Quran 4:157 That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:-
Purpose Of Jesus Being Crucified:
The Jews believed from the biblical verses that, when a person is hung on a cross and he dies on it, he is condemned to hell. The Jews wanted to prove that Jesus was not the Messiah that was prophesised in the bible and therefore they freed a serious sinner instead of Jesus and asked the Roman, Pontus Pilot to crucify Jesus on the cross. Jesus was on the cross for about 3 hours, they did not break his legs and after they thought that he was dead one of the soldiers pierced a spear on his side and blood and water flowed from his wound showing that he was alive. The Bible states that there was earth quake and high winds etc and therefore they took the body of Jesus down quickly and took him to the chamber provided by his secret disciple. The interference of God almighty at this point with earthquake and storm indicates that it happened for a reason and the reason was Jesus had to be kept alive to fulfil his other prophecies not fulfilled yet and had not died yet and it was made to appear so. And he was taken to the chamber where he recovered from his physical ordeal. When Mary came to him on Sunday she was aware that he was alive because she had come with oil to massage his body according to the bible. It is not the Jewish culture to massages a dead body on the third day. The wrapping covering Jesus were neatly folded and put away in the chamber where he was kept and was missing from there. Jesus had disguised as a gardener and was hiding from the Jews, when Mary came looking for him. And Jesus says, Why are you looking for the alive among the dead. This is what the Quran is explaining in the above verse. That Jesus was not crucified as in he did not die on the cross to be crucified and they did not kill him either.
There are about 32,000 sects in Christianity and they all follow the same bible some have some extra books added to the bible some have less but in essence they all have the same book. And yet they read it differently and one church is different to the other due to a different interpretation of a verse. In fact all the beliefs come from that same single Bible and are only following conjectures with no certain knowledge as the Quran states clearly.
Many Doubts With The Bible
Christianity is built on so many assumptions and hidden word meaning that every church claims their view is correct and there are more than 32000 sects to Christianity. Each one of them is claiming to be accurate. The bible books themselves are not original and have many variations. They are claimed to be written by the authors without certainty. The true sources of these books are still a mystery. On top of these there are insertions in the bible and during translations big blunders have been made. To top it all up while copying these scriptures words and ideas have been inserted into the bible.
v1: Ehrman (1996, p72-5) makes a strong case that the phrase "Son of God" in v1 is a later interpolation. See also Head (1991). Adella Yarbro Collins (1995) concludes in her review article that the field is evenly split on the matter. It is important to keep in mind, as Koester once pointed out, that texts are generally far more variable before they are canonized. Several exegetes have argued, based on the grammar of v2 and other arguments, that the beginning of the Gospel has been lost (see discussion in Willker 2004, p9-10).
v1: Dewey (2004) observes of the text of Mark: "Comparing the seven modern reconstructions of the Greek NT texts from Tischendorf's last (1872) edition through the 25th edition of Nestle-Aland, Kurt and Barbara Aland found that the Gospel of Mark had the lowest number of variant-free verses of any NT text-45.1 percent. The figure for the entire NT is 62.9 percent, and all other NT writings show agreement of over 50 percent, with Matthew and Luke being nearer 60 percent. Another way of looking at it is to count the number of variants per printed page of Nestle-Aland, 25th Ed. Here again Mark leads with 10.3 variants per page. John has 8.5 and both Matthew and Luke just under 7; the rest of the NT is lower still."

The above quotes refer to many things about the bible and particularly the Gospel of Mark and the purpose of inserting them here is to show the scholarly works of prominent bible scholars. The percentage of variances mentioned in the second quote refers to the point made earlier about the millions of manuscripts of the bible of which no two are alike or without variations.
SOURCES Of The Bible Are From Doubtful Origins:
A more in-depth study of the scriptures gives a really scary picture as the scriptures are further analysed from the sources called J, P, E and D sources. When you search for these sources you find that they all start by saying that these are hypothesized sources and J for Yahwist which is derived from Yahweh, E for Elohist derived from Elohim, D for Deuteronomy supposed to be 600BC, P for Priests. The JEDP theory has been propagated for years identifying that these sources of the bible come from anonymous sources.
"From an orthodox Christian perspective, we can't even begin to talk about theology until we've established the truth of the Scriptures. If we can't trust what the biblical authors tell us about the authorship of the Torah, we may not be able to believe anything they have to say. This is a crucial point, since the Bible is not merely a primary source of knowledge about God - it's our one and only repository of "special revelation" concerning the existence and nature of the Deity and His will and plan for mankind and the rest of creation."
To take this argument a bit further we have to be confident that the sources of the bible are what they claim to be. If this is not the case then our faith is in vain and our future is grave not just in this world but the hereafter as well. God has given us the superior intellect not given to any other creation and if we do not spend time in researching the very basis of our faith and belief. We are putting ourselves and our children’s' future in grave danger of having worshipped the wrong or false deity without allocating sufficient time and effort in understanding and confirming its authenticity. The Christians may find that it is hard to look beyond the fact that there are certain predictions mentioned in the bible that have come true and thereby authenticating the source and in turn authenticating the religion. But my personal request to all the Christians out there to consider my views that Islam is the true religion as it is nothing but the follow up of the same Abrahamic faith. The links and prophecies from the bible to the Islamic teaching and ultimately to the word of God The Noble Qur'an are significant and giving birth to the enormous numbers of reverts to Islam, tha afstest growing religion in the world even at a time of adverse propoganda. The more one researches the religion, the more they will find truth and eventually become inescapable from the realization that the God of Abraham is one and the same as the God of Jesus and the same as The God in Islam.
Quran 5:48 48.And unto thee [O Prophet] have We vouchsafed this divine writ, setting forth the truth, confirming the truth of whatever there still remains of earlier revelations and determining what is true therein. Judge, then, between the followers of earlier revelation in accordance with what God has bestowed from on high, and do not follow their errant views, forsaking the truth that has come unto thee. Unto every one of you have We appointed a [different] law and way of life. And if God had so willed, He could surely have made you all one single community: but [He willed it otherwise] in order to test you by means of what He has vouchsafed unto, you. Vie, then, with one another in doing good works! Unto God you all must return; and then He will make you truly understand all that on which you were wont to differ.
Quran 2:42 Confound not truth with falsehood, nor knowingly conceal the truth.
Quran 2:62 “Those who believe (in the Quran), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians…and (all) who believe in God and the last day and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.”
Quran 2:111-113 And they say: None entereth paradise unless he be a Jew or a Christian. These are their own desires. Say: Bring your proof (of what ye state) if ye are truthful. Nay, but whosoever surrendereth his purpose to Allah while doing good, his reward is with his Lord; and there shall no fear come upon them neither shall they grieve. And the Jews say the Christians follow nothing (true), and the Christians say the Jews follow nothing (true); yet both are readers of the Scripture. Even thus speak those who know not. Allah will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection concerning that wherein they differ.
Paul has written more than half of the bible books, most of which are letters written in arguing his point of view to different churches, which is greatly influenced by the Roman Pagan Deities’ of his home town, Mithras.
If the Christians take out their blind folds of blind belief they will see that very clearly written in their own bibles without any assumptions, presumptions or supposed hidden meanings, the bible of Jesus and not of Paul. The first 4 books are the only ones that talk about Jesus and his teachings. They contain the actual teachings of Jesus and in them you will find the truth. Once they start reading the bible with the concept that Jesus was a Prophet and not a God. Every verse of the bible will make more sense. If not there are too many assumptions and there will be a lot of confusion and divisions. May Allah The Alllmighty guide you into the light and truth and save you away from the fires of hell as there is a curse of God in the bible on those who worship others other than this one God.
God Curses People Who Worship Idols Instead Of The One True God
Romans 1:23-32 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
26For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: (Homo sexual behaviour)
27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.
28And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
When we see the modern age there is an exponential growth of Homosexuals in the western Christian countries and other idol worshipping countries. The people of the scriptures need to look closely at these verses of the Bible. I believe this is due to the curse of God befallen on those nations which have strayed away from the truth and are taking other Gods as deities and worshipping idols of different forms and of nature instead of the one true God. This is also true in the case of The Churches where the priests have vile and sick needs and play with the lives of young children and affected their lives with misery and mental sicknesses due to their own evil desires.
There is enough material or factual evidence here to jolt a person sleep walking out of their blind faith. Please wake up and look closely at what your faith is made up of. Don`t let others make you follow something without atleast checking up facts yourself. We live in a world of knowledge, easy access to any information we want all at our figure tips. If we still follow blindly then we will be held accountable and to those, whom religion matters, my sincere request is to please wake up and look at your facts. May the Lord God help you and lead you to the straight path. Ameen!!!!
One God
Deuteronomy 6;4 : hear o israel the lord our god is, the lord is one.
Mark 12; 28-29 and 32 : man asks jesus of all the commandments which is the most important. jesus says hear o israel the lord our god the lord is one. Man says you are right in saying that god is one and there is no other but him.( Arabic declaration- la ilaha illallah )
Isaiah 43;10-11: you are my witness declare the lord and my servants whom i have chosen so that you may know and believe me and understand that i am he. before me no god was formed nor will there be one after me i even i am the lord and apart from me there is no saviour.
Isaiah 45;5 : i am lord and there is no other apart from me there is no god
Isaiah 46-9 : remember the fromer things those are long ago i am god and there is no other i am god and there is none like me
John 5:30 : By myself i can do nothing i judge only as i hear and my judgement is just for i seek not to please myself but him who sent me.
John 14:28: Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
No Idols As God
Isaiah 44;6-18 : this is what the lord says israel's king and reedeemer the lord almighty i am the first and i am the last apart from me there is no god who then is like me ? let him proclaim it let him declare and lay out before me what has happened since i established my ancient people and what is yet to come...yes let him fore tell what will come .... you are witness is there any god besides me ? no there is no other rock i know not one .... they know nothing and they understand nothing their eyes are plastered over so that they cannot see and their minds closed so that they understand nothing.
I have many Christian friends and I am gravely worried for them, and the close to 30% of the world population that are non following Christians. I conclude with this prayer for my dear Christian brotheren, to help them find their way to the Truth. May Allah the Almighty, guide you and soften your hearts and open your eyes to the light and truth of the One True God “Allah”. Ameen!!!
Quran 4:171 "O people of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: nor say of Allah aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) a messenger of Allah, and his Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a Spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His Messengers. Say not 'Three': desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is One God: glory be to Him: (Far Exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs."
Quran 2:256 Let there be no compulsion (or coercion) in the religion (Islam). The right direction is distinctly clear from error.
