Quote (bodhitharta @ May 13 2011,09:58)you should be able to believe that God can also send MuhammadWhere in the New Testement does it say that another will be sent? It doesnt. Instead it warns that there will be false teachers and false prophets. Im sure if another was to come then Jesus would have said. The Holy Spirit was sent but that was the…[Read more]

Jesus WAS sent to the Jews only, but you are failing to see the bigger picture. This was just the beginning. After the ressurection then Jesus went on to say:“Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go, and make disciples of all nations“. – Matt 28:18″He said to them, “Go into all…[Read more]

Bod, It was through Isreal (the nation) that God planned to save the whole world, be it Jew or Gentile. Do you think that God is only the God of certain nations and nationalities? Far from it. It was through Jesus that the world is saved.The Jews thought that they were the only ones you see, they believed that salvation was only for them but it…[Read more]

Bod… I am not a Trinitarian believer.There is Father God, the one God who Jesus prayed to and told us to pray to and that is what I do. And there is the Lord Jesus Christ who I listen to and speak of.So… I do not read the Quran or follow Mohammad, I follow the Lord Jesus Christ and believe Him and all he says.You – Follow Mohammad and all He…[Read more]

Hi.Jesus was speaking to the crowds who had followed him. Was it what they wanted to hear? Maybe not all of them.Those who Jesus said would would recieve a reward and were noticed by God were the poor in spirit, the mourners, the meek, those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, the merciful, the pure in heart, the peacemakers, the persecuted,…[Read more]

Quote (Wispring @ May 09 2011,18:15)Hi Shimmer, I have been following my own advice and have been reading Matthew, Mark, Luke, John alot lately. Living life as a disciple of Christ Jesus is not an easy activity IMO. It is far easier to debate/argue then it is to be a true follower of Christ Jesus. I have been re-dedicating my life to God and…[Read more]

Bod,Although there is only one God to be worshiped and prayed to (as Jesus said)… Jesus is the Lord, the head of the believers. You used to listen to him but now you listen to Mohammad, so Mohammad has become your Lord…. Do you follow me?Your using the word 'Lord' wrong and misunderstanding it. Lord is the Master, Chief, Teacher, Ruler. …[Read more]

Who is your Master and Lord? You cannot have two Masters. They are saying two different things. So who is it, Jesus or Mohammad?

Quote (bodhitharta @ May 09 2011,05:15)This does not mean what it seems to mean that scripture is talking about Denying God(Father) and the servant(Son) of God. If you deny the servant you deny God.

Bod, I copied the following from the topic in believers place on monotheism.This made me think of Islam. What is the fine line between this type of Christian belief and Islam? Well, the thing is, the deception. We believe the Bible and all it says about the Son. Muslims believe the Bible is corrupt and God has no Son and follow the Quran so they…[Read more]
