What Do Muslims Think About Jesus (I'sa)?
- Muslims respect and venerate Jesus Christ. They consider him to be one of God's greatest messengers to humankind. The Qur'an re-affirms his miraculous birth and his miraculous abilities. Furthermore, his mother Mary is regarded as one of the most pure and exalted women of all creation. As the Qur'an says:
- First, God's greatest messengers ? No !!, Jesus was not just a messenger, but let's go on..
- Mary in the Bible is not mentioned as the most pure and exalted woman....(when Jesus mentioned mary, You continue to find the word: woman-not mother....) she is not exalted !!
"Behold! the angel said: 'God has chosen you and purified you and has chosen you above the women of all nations. O Mary! God gives you the good news of a word from Him, whose name shall be Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, honored in this world and the hereafter, and one of those brought near to God" (3:42).
Relax, everyone....because this is what the Quran says about Jesus and mary, not what the Word of God says....no need for concern..... let's go on..
Now here is where the trouble lies for Islam... First: They believe Jesus to be just a Prophet, correct ?
Well, if the Scripture's are correct about prophets, prophets tell what God tells them to say, right ?
Well then why doesn't Islam believe that Jesus is the Son of God? did not even God the Father say this about Jesus Himself ???? ( In Luke Chapter 3 verse: 22) says: the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said "You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased."
Or how about: Matthew Chapter 17 verse, 1-5 (verse 5: This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!" Which was on the Mountain of Transfiguration or Mt. Hermon......
You see the Lord Jesus Christ is not just a Prophet, not just a Messenger,and also not just a good Teacher and also not just an Apostle, but He is: The Son of the Living God/ Jesus born of a woman-virgin-was fully Man and fully God at the same time......
It is funny how the Qur'an confirms somethings of the Bible and not others....and of course you understand that what the Qur'an gets is the quotes from the Bible, why do I say this???? Simply because the Qur'an was written after the Bible !!!!!!!! that's right, after the Scriptures... So they can pick and choose what they want in the book called the Qur'an....or the last revelation from God....
No my friends, the Bible is the last and only Book and Word of the living God !!!
First, Jesus was not and is not a created being !!!! (John, Chapter 8 verse: 58-says)" Jesus said to them, " Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM." and verse 59-says Then they (the jews) took up stones to throw at Him...... Why did the jews try to stone Jesus ? Because they knew that He was claiming to be God !!! they also remember the Moses account at the burning bush when Moses asked God who shall I say that sent me....and God said " I AM that I AM"......
So let's get this straight my friends....Jesus said that He was the Son of God, God the Father said that He was the Son of God, and look at another person that testifies this fact ! John, Chapter 1 verse 34, says " And I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God." Who said this also....it was John the Babtist..... And wait there's another " II Peter chapter 1 verse: 16,17 that says: "but were eyewitnesses of His majesty. For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: " This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
Now this speaks of things not written in the Bible, but from the books outside of the Bible, which are not part of the canon of Scripture, the non-inspired books.....that they have copied from here too.... but let's go on.....below...
This is just words took out of the Scriptures again and twisted them around....Don't believe this story from the Qur'an.....This book of lies and deceiving words.....
Friends remember what the Bible says in Jude 3-4......I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.........For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ..........
Jesus is Lord..... the Alpha and Omega......the First and the Last.....Every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord to the glory of God the Father......... Philippians 2:8-11.
Very good post. May our Lord continue to use you to spread the truth of the gospel. God bless, Lloyd
