Religion / "Does God Require Sabbath-keeping Of Christians?" by Medicis(m): 1:08pm On Nov 01, 2015
In Colossians 2:16-17, the Bible declares, “Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ.” Similarly, Romans 14:5 states, “One man considers one day more sacred than another; another man considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.” These Scriptures make it clear that, for the Christian, Sabbath-keeping is a matter of spiritual freedom, not a command from God. Sabbath-keeping is an issue on which God’s Word instructs us not to judge each other. Sabbath-keeping is a matter about which each Christian needs to be fully convinced in his/her own mind.

In the early chapters of the book of Acts, the first Christians were predominantly Jews. When Gentiles began to receive the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ, the Jewish Christians had a dilemma. What aspects of the Mosaic Law and Jewish tradition should Gentile Christians be instructed to obey? The apostles met and discussed the issue in the Jerusalem council (Acts 15). The decision was, “It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God. Instead we should write to them, telling them to abstain from food polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled animals and from blood” (Acts 15:19-20). Sabbath-keeping was not one of the commands the apostles felt was necessary to force on Gentile believers. It is inconceivable that the apostles would neglect to include Sabbath-keeping if it was God’s command for Christians to observe the Sabbath day.

A common error in the Sabbath-keeping debate is the concept that the Sabbath was the day of worship. Groups such as the Seventh Day Adventists hold that God requires the church service to be held on Saturday, the Sabbath day. That is not what the Sabbath command was. The Sabbath command was to do no work on the Sabbath day (Exodus 20:8-11). Nowhere in Scripture is the Sabbath day commanded to be the day of worship. Yes, Jews in Old Testament, New Testament, and modern times use Saturday as the day of worship, but that is not the essence of the Sabbath command. In the book of Acts, whenever a meeting is said to be on the Sabbath, it is a meeting of Jews and/or Gentile converts to Judaism, not Christians.

When did the early Christians meet? Acts 2:46-47 gives us the answer, “Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.” If there was a day that Christians met regularly, it was the first day of the week (our Sunday), not the Sabbath day (our Saturday) (Acts 20:7; 1 Corinthians 16:2). In honor of Christ’s resurrection on Sunday, the early Christians observed Sunday not as the “Christian Sabbath” but as a day to especially worship Jesus Christ.

Is there anything wrong with worshipping on Saturday, the Jewish Sabbath? Absolutely not! We should worship God every day, not just on Saturday or Sunday! Many churches today have both Saturday and Sunday services. There is freedom in Christ (Romans 8:21; 2 Corinthians 3:17; Galatians 5:1). Should a Christian practice Sabbath-keeping, that is, not working on Saturdays? If a Christian feels led to do so, absolutely, yes (Romans 14:5). However, those who choose to practice Sabbath-keeping should not judge those who do not keep the Sabbath (Colossians 2:16). Further, those who do not keep the Sabbath should avoid being a stumbling block (1 Corinthians 8:9) to those who do keep the Sabbath. Galatians 5:13-15 sums up the whole issue: “You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love. The entire law is summed up in a single command: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ If you keep on biting and devouring each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.” Happy Sunday!!!

Religion / Re: Why Is Alcohol Forbidden To Muslims While On Earth, Yet Accepted In Heaven? by Medicis(m): 8:55am On Oct 31, 2015
kimond101:
Praise be to Allaah.
We have already listed some of the evil consequences that result from drinking alcohol, which are the reason why drinking it is absolutely forbidden in the religion of Allaah. See for example question no 40882.

But the questioner – may Allaah guide us and him to knowledge of the truth – thinks that the prohibition on alcohol in this world, and the promise to the believers that they will enjoy it in Paradise, is a contradiction or fault in the religion of Allaah, or at best he is confused by this.

Allaah forbid that there should be any contradiction in his Book or His laws, for He is the All-Knowing, All-Wise, All-Aware. Contradictions come from others, not from Him, may He be exalted. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“Do they not then consider the Qur’aan carefully? Had it been from other than Allaah, they would surely, have found therein many a contradiction”

[al-Nisa’ 4:82]

Contradictions come from human beings when they try to criticize the revealed words, and from their misunderstanding when they fail to grasp the intended meaning or the wisdom behind the words.

The Book of Allaah is protected by Him, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):

“Verily, We, it is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Qur’aan) and surely, We will guard it (from corruption)”

[al-Hijr 15:9].

With regard to other books (scriptures), Allaah has not guaranteed to preserve them, rather He commanded their people to guard them, but they altered them and changed them, so no one longer has any doubt that they have been changed from the form in which Allaah revealed them. Indeed anyone among the people of these Books who has the slightest knowledge does not claim that this is how they were revealed from God or that the Messiah conveyed them like this during his lifetime. See question no. 47516.

Now let us return to the question and ask the questioner:

Are you objecting to the prohibition on alcohol in this world? Do you want it to be permitted as it will be a delight for the people of Paradise? In that case we ask you: Wasn’t alcohol forbidden in your holy Book, and is that not mentioned repeatedly in the Old Testament in which you believe? If you do not know about that, then listen:

“Woe to those who are champions at drinking wine and champions at mixing drinks”

Isaiah 5:22 (New International Version)

“Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor”

Proverbs 23:20-21 (New International Version)

“Then the LORD said to Aaron: ‘You and your sons are not to drink wine or other fermented drink whenever you go into the Tent of Meeting, or you will die. This is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come. You must distinguish between the holy and the profane, between the unclean and the clean.’”

Leviticus 10:8-10 (New International Version)

This is sufficient evidence for anyone who is wise; as for discussing these verses in detail, we do not have room to do so here.

Even in the New Testament of your holy Book, there remain some verses which point to that:

“But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, and idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard of a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.”

1 Corinthians 5:11 (New International Version)

“Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of Gos.”

1 Corinthians 9:9-10 (New International Version)

“Do not get drunk with wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.”

Ephesians 5:18 (New International Version)

And there any many similar verses.

“Then which of the Blessings of your Lord will you both (jinn and men) deny?”

[al-Rahmaan 55:13]

If you claim, as you do, that this prohibition was abrogated and that it became permissible for you, then why do you object to the idea that the Qur’aan abrogated that permission and that Allaah has forbidden it to people in this world?

Or are you objecting to the fact that it will become a delight in the Hereafter after it was forbidden in this world? Do you want it to be forbidden in both realms?

In that case, it remains for us to ask you: if you accept that the prohibition of alcohol in this world was abrogated, so it became permissible – as you claim – then is it not more appropriate that you should accept that in the Hereafter? Even though the Hereafter is not a place of obligations, rather it is the place of delight for the people of Paradise and the torment of Hell for the people of the Fire.

But we say this simply for the sake of argument, to show to him that he was being fair to his opponent when he did not look at what he has (in the Bible).

But if the questioner really wants to know the truth, then the truth is simpler than that, for it is light, and in that case we say to him:

Allaah has forbidden alcohol because it is an evil abomination, of the Devil’s handiwork; it destroys the mind of the one who drinks it and distracts him from worshipping and obeying Allaah, and leads him to disobey Him, and it generates enmity and hatred in the hearts of the believers. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“O you who believe! Intoxicants (all kinds of alcoholic drinks), and gambling, and Al‑Ansaab (stone altars for sacrifices to idols etc), and Al‑Azlaam (arrows for seeking luck or decision) are an abomination of Shaytaan’s (Satan’s) handiwork. So avoid (strictly all) that (abomination) in order that you may be successful.

91. Shaytaan (Satan) wants only to excite enmity and hatred between you with intoxicants (alcoholic drinks) and gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of Allaah and from As‑Salaah (the prayer). So, will you not then abstain?”

[al-Maa’idah 5:90-91]

The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Every intoxicant is khamr and all khamr is haraam.” Saheeh Muslim, 2003.

This is what it says in your holy Book:

“Then the LORD said to Aaron: ‘You and your sons are not to drink wine or other fermented drink ... You must distinguish between the holy and the profane, between the unclean and the clean.’”

Leviticus 10:8-10 (New International Version)

As for the wine of the Hereafter, it is delightful and is free of all the filth and impurities of worldly wine. Paradise is the abode of the good and pure, and there is nothing in it but good things. Our Lord says (interpretation of the meaning):

“Round them will be passed a cup of pure wine —

46. White, delicious to the drinkers.

47. Neither will they have Ghoul (any kind of hurt, abdominal pain, headache, a sin) from that nor will they suffer intoxication therefrom”

[al-Saaffaat 37:45-47]

They will not suffer any kind of hurt, pain, or headaches, and it will not destroy their wealth.

The wine of the Hereafter bears no resemblance to the wine of this world except in name. As for its real nature, no eye has seen, no ear has heard, nor has it entered the heart of man. Our Lord says (interpretation of the meaning):

“No person knows what is kept hidden for them of joy as a reward for what they used to do”

[al-Sajdah 32:17]

The one who contaminate himself with the wine of this world deserves to be denied the wine of the Hereafter. The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Every intoxicant is khamr and every intoxicant is haraam. Whoever drinks wine in this world and dies having persisted in drinking it and not having repented, will never drink it in the Hereafter.”

Saheeh Muslim, 2003.

We ask Allaah to guide you to the truth and help you to give up specious arguments.

And Allaah is the source of strength, and there is no lord but He
Source:islamqa.com
Wine is forbidden for a Muslim here on earth:

O you who believe! Strong drink and games of chance and idols and divine arrows are only an infamy of Satan's handiwork. Leave it aside that you may succeed.
-- Sura 5:90
See also Sura 2:219.

On the other hand in Paradise are rivers of wine:

A similitude of the Garden which those who keep their duty (to Allah) are promised: Therein are rivers of water unpolluted ... and rivers of wine delicious to the drinkers.
-- Sura 47:15
Surely the pious will be in bliss ... their thirst will be slaked with pure wine sealed.
-- Sura 83:22,25

Is wine good or bad? Are we forbidden on earth something that is truly good? Or in Paradise are we not only allowed it, but even provided in overflowing measures (rivers of ...) something that is so bad that it is called "Satan's handiwork"?

Some Muslims attempt to explain away the discrepancy by appealing to the following passage:

Save single-minded slaves of Allah; For them there is a known provision, Fruits. And they will be honoured In the Gardens of delight, On couches facing one another; A cup from a gushing spring is brought round for them, White, delicious to the drinkers, Wherein there is no headache nor are they made mad thereby. And with them are those of modest gaze, with lovely eyes, (Pure) as they were hidden eggs (of the ostrich). S. 37:40-49 Pickthall

The heavenly wine, it is claimed, which believers will drink will not cause headaches or madness, thereby justifying Allah's decision to permit it in paradise.

The main problem with citing this is that the passage nowhere identifies this drink as wine. It does not even mention either the word wine or strong drinks/intoxicants. It simply says that believers will drink from a cup something which is white in color which does not cause headiness. If anything, one can make an argument that this drink is actually milk. After all, the Quran does mention the fact that believers will be given rivers of milk, and milk is indeed white:

A similitude of the Garden which those who keep their duty (to Allah) are promised: Therein are rivers of water unpolluted, and rivers of milk whereof the flavour changeth not, and rivers of wine delicious to the drinkers, and rivers of clear-run honey; therein for them is every kind of fruit, with pardon from their Lord. (Are those who enjoy all this) like those who are immortal in the Fire and are given boiling water to drink so that it teareth their bowels? S. 47:15 Pickthall

Here is the other text which Muslims quote to prove that the wine in paradise will be different:

with goblets, and ewers, and a cup from a spring (no brows throbbing, no intoxication) S. 56:18-19 Arberry

Again, the reference nowhere mentions wine and can be referring to the other drinks which the Quran says will be given to believers, i.e. honey, milk, water etc. In fact, the Sura goes on to mention the flowing waters which believers will have:

By water flowing constantly, S. 56:31 Hilali-Khan

Thus, one can legitimately say that the spring which the Quran says will not cause throbbing or intoxication are these very waters. This becomes even more apparent when we realize that the Quran mentions the fruits that the believers will eat from right after the Quran refers to the spring and flowing waters:

and such fruits as they shall choose, S. 56:20 Arberry

And fruit in plenty, S. 56:32 Hilali-Khan

In light of the foregoing, it seems pretty certain from the context that the drink which the Quran says doesn't cause intoxication is in fact the very flowing waters that are mentioned later on in the chapter.

Moreover, one can even argue that the reason these passages emphasize that these particular drinks don't cause headiness or intoxication is to distinguish them from the wine which believers will have access to when in paradise. In other words, the qualification presupposes that these drinks are different from the wine which believers will be drinking since, unlike wine, these specific drinks don't cause madness or headaches. Putting it in another way, these texts are not identifying these drinks as wine, but are actually contrasting them to wine by highlighting the point that they don't have the common affects associated with intoxicants.

Religion / Re: Why Would Jesus Be Baptized If? Only Reasonable Christian Please by Medicis(m): 9:10pm On Oct 30, 2015
yazach:
BAPTISM
Baptism means
(1) a ceremonial immersion in water, or application of water, as an initiatory rite or sacrament of the Christian church;
(2) a trying or purifying experience or initiation;
(3) purification of thought and character.

In a nutshell, baptism means purification and cleansing of impure being or something.
If this is the case, was Jesus impure and unclean that he needed to be purified and cleans by John the Baptist?
If so, then the issue of he being killed to cleans us from our sins is not true.
This is because an impure being cannot cleans impure beings.
If that baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist is true, who then baptized John the Baptist before he baptized Jesus below? Wasn't Jesus righteous?

Was John the Baptist GREATER than Jesus because in Matthew 11:11 and Luke 7:28 Jesus said among those born of women there has not risen ANYONE greater than John the Baptist? Jesus was also among those born of women.
Matthew 3:13-17 New International Version (NIV)

The Baptism of Jesus
13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John. 14 But John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?”
15 Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John consented.
16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. 17 And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”
Have a great Friday and peace be unto you.
At first glance, it seems that Jesus’ baptism has no purpose at all. John’s baptism was the baptism of repentance (Matthew 3:11), but Jesus was sinless and had no need of repentance. Even John was taken aback at Jesus’ coming to him. John recognized his own sin and was aware that he, a sinful man in need of repentance himself, was unfit to baptize the spotless Lamb of God: “I need to be baptized by You and You are coming to me?” (Matthew 3:14). Jesus replied that it should be done because “it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness” (Matthew 3:15).

There are several reasons why it was fitting for John to baptize Jesus at the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry. Jesus was about to embark on His great work, and it was appropriate that He be recognized publicly by His forerunner. John was the “voice crying in the wilderness” prophesied by Isaiah, calling people to repentance in preparation for their Messiah (Isaiah 40:3). By baptizing Him, John was declaring to all that here was the One they had been waiting for, the Son of God, the One he had predicted would baptize “with the Holy Spirit and fire” (Matthew 3:11).

Jesus’ baptism also showed that He identified with sinners. His baptism symbolized the sinners’ baptism into the righteousness of Christ, dying with Him and rising free from sin and able to walk in the newness of life. His perfect righteousness would fulfill all the requirements of the Law for sinners who could never hope to do so on their own. When John hesitated to baptize the sinless Son of God, Jesus replied that it was proper to “fulfill all righteousness” (Matthew 3:15). By this He alluded to the righteousness that He provides to all who come to Him to exchange their sin for His righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:21).

In addition, Jesus’ coming to John showed His approval of John's baptism, bearing witness to it, that it was from heaven and approved by God. This would be important in the future when others would begin to doubt John’s authority, particularly after his arrest by Herod (Matthew 14:3-11).

Perhaps most importantly, the occasion of the public baptism recorded for all future generations the perfect embodiment of the triune God revealed in glory from heaven. The testimony directly from heaven of the Father’s pleasure with the Son and the descending of the Holy Spirit upon Jesus (Matthew 3:16-17) is a beautiful picture of the trinitarian nature of God. It also depicts the work of the Father, Son, and Spirit in the salvation of those Jesus came to save. The Father loves the elect from before the foundation of the world (Ephesians 1:4); He sends His Son to seek and save the lost (Luke 19:10); and the Spirit convicts of sin (John 16:cool and draws the believer to the Father through the Son. All the glorious truth of the mercy of God through Jesus Christ is on display at His baptism

Quotes from Jesus...

Jesus Said He Existed Before Abraham
"Your father Abraham rejoiced as he looked forward to my coming. He saw it and was glad."
    The people said, "You aren't even fifty years old. How can you say you have seen Abraham?"
    Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, before Abraham was even born, I Am!"

Jesus Said to See Him is the Same as Seeing God:
Jesus shouted to the crowds, "If you trust me, you are trusting not only me, but also God who sent me. For when you see me, you are seeing the one who sent me. I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark."

"No one can come to the Father except through me. If you had really known me, you would know who my Father is. From now on, you do know him and have seen him!"
    Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied."
    Jesus replied, "Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and yet you still don't know who I am? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! So why are you asking me to show him to you?"

Jesus Said He Could Forgive Sins
"...that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins"--he then said to the paralytic--"Rise, pick up your bed and go home." And he rose and went home. When the crowds saw it, they were afraid, and they glorified God..."

He said to them, "You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. I told you that you would die in your sins, for unless you believe that I am he you will die in your sins."

Jesus Said He Is the Judge and Can Grant Eternal Life
"For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom he will. The Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son, that all may honor the Son, just as they honor the Father.

Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live."

"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand."

"For it is my Father's will that all who see his Son and believe in him should have eternal life. I will raise them up at the last day."

Jesus Said He Was the Same as God
"The Father and I are one."
    Once again the people picked up stones to kill him.
    Jesus said, "At my Father's direction I have done many good works. For which one are you going to stone me?"
    They replied, "We're stoning you not for any good work, but for blasphemy! You, a mere man, claim to be God." HYPOCRITE!!!!

Saw Jesus? Which verse in bible is that? Even Christians scholars accpeted he never see Jesus
Acts 9:3-6King James Version (KJV)

3 And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:

4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

6 And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.

The Bible has been around before you were born and will still be around when you are long dead and rotten in grave.

Islam for Muslims / Re: Peculiarities Of Muhammad As A Prophet by Medicis(m): 7:45am On Oct 26, 2015
truthman2012:
MUHAMMAD IS NOT IN THE BIBLE

Stop looking for Muhammad in the Bible, he is not there. When did God start having corrupt and immoral prophet like Muhammad? The truth remains you couldn't refute Muhammad's immoral deed, hence you skipped them and talked about Bible verses islamists misinterpret to their own favour,

With what you read about Muhammad in the OP, is it not clear he was not a prophet like Moses?

Tell me where Moses or any of God's prophets did those things Muhammad did. This is a simple logic.

THE FULFILLMENT OF MOSES PROPHECY IN DEUTRONOMY 18:18

Statement by the Apostles in the New Testament referring to Jesus[/b
]
Acts 3:22
For Moses said, 'The Lord your
God will raise up for you a
prophet like me from among your
OWN PEOPLE; you must listen to
everything he tells you.

Moses was addressing the Israelites he was leading out of Egypt to Cannan when he made the prophecy. He said the prophesied prophet would come from among the people he was talking to. Ishmael generations from where Muhammad emerged was not among them. So Muhammad was not among the Israelites own people.

[b]All prophecies about the coming prophet in the Bible are referring to Jesus.


John 1:45
Philip findeth Nathanael and saith
unto him, We have found him, of
whom MOSES in the law and the
prophets did write, Jesus of
Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

Jesus himself said: And he (Jesus) said unto them,
These are the words which I spake
unto you while I was yet with you,
that all things must be fulfilled,
which were written in the law of
MOSES and in the PROPHETS and
in PSALMS
, concerning ME (Luke
24:44).

Islam is not in God's plan as Jesus Gospel is God's final message to the world:

And this GOSPEL of the kingdom shall be preached in ALL the WORLD for a witness unto ALL NATIONS and then SHALL THE END COME (Mat. 24:14).

God's plan is that it is the GOSPEL that will be preached till the end of the world, then it could not be the same God who sent Muhammad to bring islam.

Bless you Bro! It is so GLARING that mohammed is not in the bible. Moses came with the Law, Jesus with grace. We will not be taken back to the era of law by a false prophet from a false god.

Religion / Why Blood Sacrifice????????? by Medicis(m): 7:52pm On Oct 25, 2015
The whole of the Old Testament, every book, points toward the Great Sacrifice that was to come—that of Jesus’ sacrificial giving of His own life on our behalf. Leviticus 17:11 is the Old Testament’s central statement about the significance of blood in the sacrificial system. God, speaking to Moses, declares: “For the life of a creature is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for yourselves on the altar; it is the blood that makes atonement for one’s life.”

A “sacrifice” is defined as the offering up of something precious for a cause or a reason. Making atonement is satisfying someone or something for an offense committed. The Leviticus verse can be read more clearly now: God said, “I have given it to you (the creature’s life, which is in its blood) to make atonement for yourselves (covering the offense you have committed against Me).” In other words, those who are covered by the blood sacrifice are set free from the consequences of sin.

Of course, the Israelites did not know of Jesus per se, or how He would die on their behalf and then rise again, but they did believe God would be sending them a Savior. All of the many, many blood sacrifices seen throughout the Old Testament were foreshadowing the true, once-for-all-time sacrifice to come so that the Israelites would never forget that, without the blood, there is no forgiveness. This shedding of blood is a substitutionary act. Therefore, the last clause of Leviticus 17:11 could be read either “the blood ‘makes atonement’ at the cost of the life” (i.e., the animal’s life) or “makes atonement in the place of the life” (i.e., the sinner’s life, with Jesus Christ being the One giving life through His shed blood).

Hebrews 9:11-18 confirms the symbolism of blood as life and applies Leviticus 17:11 to the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ. Verse 12 states clearly that the Old Testament blood sacrifices were temporary and only atoned for sin partially and for a short time, hence the need to repeat the sacrifices yearly. But when Christ entered the Most Holy Place, He did so to offer His own blood once for all time, making future sacrifices unnecessary. This is what Jesus meant by His dying words on the cross: “It is finished” (John 19:30). Never again would the blood of bulls and goats cleanse men from their sin. Only by accepting Jesus’ blood, shed on the cross for the remission of sins, can we stand before God covered in the righteousness of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:21).

Lmao, am not a Muslim n I'm not an atheist.

Bible isn't sure of how Judas died, a part of the bible said he hanged himself, another part of the same bible says he fell n hit his stomach on d rocks n his intestine bust n he died. The particular holy spirit that wrote d bible is really a confused one.


My point remains that Jesus was calling on God to help him...My GOD my God, why did u forsake me....does that sound like a God or a mere man

Think think think.
Well let me tell you how he died. The first part is just there to compliment the other part. Judas hung himself on a cliff, then he fell from that cliff head long, hit his stomach on the rock n his instestine burst open. Receive understanding in Jesus Name!!!

Here goes the dumbness again.he died 3-4 years as a result of the poison? Really but he still went on pilgrimage "on foot" and the poison didn't prevent that,, what kind of a poison sustains for 3-4 yrs anyways?
I guess your believe is revolved around miracles and healing no wonder your pastors go to sorcerers to perform miracle and you being so mummified and dumb believe in them... forgetting that there is more to religion than miracles and healing,the intellectual aspect of religion which is what you people lack and that is why you anything inexplicable in the bible is attributed to the holy spirit
Haven't you stopped to ask why the intellectually sound among you end up as athiest,can't you see that we in golden age and miracles and healings are now insufficient prerequisites for believe
Finally I will like you to know that there exists a lot of scientific facts in the koran which have just be discovered by the modern man..what will you term such a book which gives hint of some scientific facts 15centuries ago and these have been confirmed by modern man
Even mohammad stated "I await a day when the son of adam will explore the furthest stars" you should know the late neil Armstrong and yuri gagarin by now
Our religion is not like yours which prosecute people for advancing in knowledge the likes of galileo and nikolas corpenicus(may God bless them)
And pay attention only to miracles
quoting from Bukhari's Hadith 5.713:]
 
Narrated 'Aisha:
 
 The Prophet in his ailment in which he died, used to say, "O 'Aisha! I still feel the pain caused by the food I ate at Khaibar, and at this time, I feel as if my aorta is being cut from that poison." Even the bastard says he feels as if his aorta is being. Cut from the poison he ate at khalibar and you are here defending him. Who should we believe? You or the hadith

mubarakopeyemi:


these set of hypocrites can't provide an answer to their dirty idol like God who loves sacrifices.

Bro dont waste so much time on them. As u can see all they did was to make noise, digress and derail . No reasonable answer.
Firstly, My God why hath thou forsaken me is a fufilment of Psalm 22:1 and secondly,In those awful moments, Jesus was expressing His feelings of abandonment as God placed the sins of the world on Him – and because of that had to “turn away” from Jesus becos he cannot behold iniquity. As Jesus was feeling that weight of sin, He was experiencing separation from God for the FIRST AND ONLY TIME IN ALL OF ETERNITY. It was at this time that. He made that statement and 2 Corinthians 5:21 occurred, “God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.” Jesus became sin for us, so He felt the loneliness and abandonment that sin always produces, except that in His case, it was not His sin – it was ours. This is the kind of seperation a sinner will feel from God on the last day but the seperation will not be temporal like that of Jesus on the cross, but will be permanent.
