ilynem: Atleast we have seperating God's Word with prophet words unlike u christians Jampacked Everything all together, Word of God, word of prophets, words of historians, scholars as well as uncountable scientific errors and Condradictions. Which bible do u believed as the true word of God ![]() Why do u keep panelbeating it time to time? Or did u get New revelation from God. Eg KJV 1john 5:7 "There are three that bear record in heaven father, sin and holy ghost". This verse is removed from d RSV. why ![]() The Quran is 1400yrs old but not even a single word has not been changed. Alhamdulillah. Islam is the Truth religion. 3 Likes |

Btruth:egbon calm down and reason is it logical to be a father and d same time son of urself? Y are u making it look like a daft person wrote the bible for stupid people....u are d reason y people become atheist ahn ahn....God is not stupid and wrote d bible for it to be understandable and not twisted as u are putting....all in d name of ur clergy men trying to cover up their wring teaching that Jesus is God dy bring stupid ideology that is not even in d bible....egbon be humble enough ooh sorry u are too blinded by ur religious leaders if not u ought to just accept a change in ur old belief. Jesus isn't God he is the son of God....God doesn't av a beginning and no end. Jesus has a beginning Buh no end. |

Stop all these confusions! Haba!! JEHOVAH is the Almighty God and Jesus Christ is HIS messenger. Remember d bible states that Jesus always say "He that sent me" and don't forget when He was baptised, a voice from heaven said "This is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased" or the verse that says "For GOD so loved d world, that HE sent HIS only begotten son..." So, why all these arguments? Jesus is a god but not the almighty GOD. Simple! |

tintingz: Ahh guy,I don't know where u re coming from but all ur comments are not making sense atall. You re confusing urself,I never wanted to quote you but seeing you are commenting a lot of nonsenses and rubbish,I have to quote you. So if you don't have any idea abt something jst shutup and read comments and quotes instead of saying nonsense... Jesus is not God the first,remember there is three persons in trinity,God the father,God the son and God the holy Ghost,He is God the son,"for God so love the world that he sent His only begotten son" Jesus is the son of God,in other words God in human flesh,so when he said I AM,He is not referring Himself as God the first,bt He's indirectly because He's the second person in trinity which is also God but in different form,which means He has been there from day one even before Adam... So when He said before abraham I AM,no b lie,he is very much correct...it will take you wisdom to understand... See let me tell you,it will take you ur life time to study God finish and wisdom to understand Him |

OLAADEGBU: Yes he did,Iam is the name of God When God said to Moses Iam 'that' Iam he meant he was the all encompassing i.e. Everything in everything. God is a spirit and can't be seen just like u can't see spirit with ur naked eye. Evil and Godly spirits are constantly on earth looking for a vessel to use, because the modus operandi on earth Is a human body or flesh. So we can say Jesus was God and is God because he was Gods all encompassing vehicle. That's why when Philip asks Jesus to show them the father....Jesus says have u a been with me and yet haven't seen the father? Just like we are spirits and can't see our spirit with the naked eye...Jesus was the fullness of God. Just like Coke the content is the real thing not the bottle (body)so in a sense if we are Coke, (spirit) was the real or Almoghty Coke.. To further buttress the point.. The bible is a book written to spirits not physical humans hence when u try to understand it with ur brain it may not make sense... But if u look at it from the spiritual it makes sense, that's why when you pray ur enjoined to believe.. Physically it's hard to but spiritually its easier believing you have recived |

Danmaiduguri:The many versions are for easy understanding. And all you Muslims saying Christians have changed the Bible over time is just pure ignorance. Even your Muslim scholars have searched the ancient manuscripts of the new testament and have seen that nothing has been changed. Thier new argument is now that the followers of Jesus actually portrayed Him as what He was not which is very laughable. But you will agree that your Quran referred you to the Bible. Wonder why if the Quran was sooooooo complete? And why do you all need the Hadiths which contradicts each other? There is actually a Hadith that said Muhammad saw his adopted son's wife half naked And after that married her. And this was written by a Muslim scholar!!!! But you will say, nooooo this makes Muhammad look bad, let us reject this and accept the ones that make us look really cool. Confused human beings. |

whiteprince:Lol, you are the one confusing yourself. I only believe God is one NO partner and there is no one equal with him. You in the other believe God is three(trinity)? What is God the first, God the second? Does that make any sense to you. Why is the holy spirit always left out when Jesus is talking about God.? Can God be the same as the son? Can God really begot a son? Can God be a man and die? How many sons did God had? please use your brain and reason. |

Seun, Lalasticlala and every other mode well done ehn. When it touches the basic doctrine of Christianity you guys will make it open. Anyone will be allowed to contribute unhindered. But whenit has to do with the religion of peace, then everyone that must comment must first accept Allah as the only true god and Mohammed last and greatest prophet. Whatever you guys are trying to achieve let me tell you that those who for centuries were terribly against Christianity using all means have passed on and Christianity remains. Why must Christianitybe subject to open discussion while Islam is not. Your guess is as good as mine, they are religion of p......... 1 Like |

Rilwayne001: My brother, if the qoran you so believe did admit that Jesus Christ is the word of God (Sallatu Allah) and spirit of God (Ruhu Allah), what is more convincing to concluding that He is God himself, knowing that your spirit is and your word cannot be separated from you? You were taught simple logic in school right? 1 Like |

That is all you need to say to yourself to be free from the bondage of subjective ignorance and perpetual dependency. The words have been used thousands of years before christ by earlier sages and he tapped into it to free himself from the confusion and indoctrinations of his time. |

Brigham: The wisdom of man is foolishness in God's eyes. Our logic and way of thinking only works or applies to things in our own little bubble. God exists outside our bubble. He is almighty. Philosophy will tell you that something cannot be and at the same time not be. But we know that God is, was and will be. He is eternal. You first have to accept the Supreme nature of the creator before you can understand what I am trying to say. 1 Like |

tintingz: It is that same book of John that the Muslims extracted a verse and misinterpreted it to mean that the coming of Mohammed was foretold in the bible. Here you are arguing the authenticity of the book of John which you so give credence to in order to support the divinity of your religion. How do you reconcile these? 1 Like |
