Oh!! spare us the appraisals and references of collosal magnitude as if applying for a job is different from seeking popehood.The lord God received such praises before opening The seal to come down on earth as human attire to complete the salvation plan, goal,purpose or objective of the "LET US" on the cross of calvary. The angels in heaven were asking who can go to the earth to take on this mission of Salvation, and then they answers, only one person could do that and he is THE MORNING STAR. The book of colossian will beef anyone on this. Besides, the Lord God, no other human had ever received such accolade concerning things of God Almighty. All the men used in the bible were either thuggish or they fall short to the glory of the Lord God. Any other human receiving such praises is saying I am a holy father. A perfect one with no fault, so pure, just looking at him will make one vaporate or melt out of body. This man was born in december 1936, and he is 76 years old, one can understand their own deceptive games of theory-gy or theory lies. Where, vehicles and cell phones are used to wipe out true gospel messages. It sounds like the false prophet, organising the vehicles and cell phone users everyday from remote to go against the servant of the Lord God, who explains all the prophecy. The explainer is not afraid of their scarecrows, running to the sea and back to change themselves, or the statement that the person who explain the prophecy is the devil because he has broken seven seals. Explaining scriptures is broken seals? Then the apostles all broke seals. It is a lie of scarecrow to prevent bible readers to know who is who, who are already in positions of trust, but creepy. Undrstanding the prophecy is important to the up and coming youth and future generation as much as the gospel is concern. Discarding it understanding is to be of service to the Lord God. The prophecy was put there for a purpose, it is not separate from the rest of the gospel messages.
Joseph and Daniel explained dreams and prophecies did not broke seals and they were men of God. How can a devil understands God's dreams and prophecies. Only men of God can have the insight to do that.

You put up a pretty balanced article and good job. The only question I have for you is that it looks as if Muslims just have a problem living with non Muslims all over the world wheter they are Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhist, Pagans or whatever. Skirmishes can occur in all regions and with ppl all over the world but difficulties others face when living with Muslims is just too evident.

Every time I look on TV Muslims are always rioting and burning anything that can burn. Ready to fight, and they all act the same. Why it it so?

They seems to be at odds with modernity, they are struggling to fit in the new world we live in and are trying very hard to keep things the way they were in the 4th century.

Terrorism can occur anywhere and in any religion yet almost all the modern day terrorist are Muslims. Most ppl kill but you dont see them doing it in the name of God or yelling God is great whiles killing their victims, its only done by Muslims in the name of GOD.

Minorities in all Muslim dominated societies are just struggling to survive or they migrate elsewhere yet Muslims have absolute freedom to live where ever they choose on this Earth and do so in peace.

These are a few questions I have for u as a non Muslims observing from afar.

Thanks

I have scanned through your article, and it is good for academic consumption.

I will like to take this opportunity to advise you that it matters so much to God as to how humanity can come to a knowledge of HIM.

It is the responsibility of every individual, no matter the religious affiliation of his or her upbringing, to find time and investigate. The fact that you are brought up even in a Christian environment does not necessarily make you one. A time has to come in your adulthood to receive Christ. When you receive Christ, it would be evident in your confession. Making the necessary effort to be baptised by immersion will crown it all. I always recommend a living BIble believing Church, where you are challenged to study the WORD and commited to prayers.

We are to be sure of all things. God has given us Eternal Life, and that Life is in Christ, the Son God. This promise(and many others) to mankind cannot be found in any writings apart from the inspired Scriptures of the Jewish apostles.

Jesus Christ must be recognised and acknowledged as in the Scriptures.
He is the Son of God(True God who once established a covenant with Israel). Jesus, himself, said Salvation is of the Jew.

The saving justice (Salvation) of God has come through the instrumentaility of the Jewish people(for they were entrusted with the ORACLES or sacred commitments of God), in general, and Jesus Christ in particular.

Whoever is not of Christ is not of his. God's promise for humanity is so important and significant that one cannot sit down unconcerned.

Knowledge is required. The writings of Moses, the Prophets and Psalms all pointing to Christ, even as JESUS declared.

Jesus, prior to his ascension declared that the world do not know God, and that Jesus has come in the name of the Father that God may be known. And there is no name under the heaven given among men that we may be saved except the name JESUS CHRIST, the saviour who is the SON of God.

A lot of the Biblical events took place in the Middle East, and therefore it is no surprise that names of Patriachs may appear here and there in other documents. The believer in Christ should guard himself or herself with the knowledge of Jesus as expressed in the Scriptures(Bible).

One cannot compromise with writings and teachings which falls short of what we have received.

Jesus, himself, says "This GOOD NEWS of the Kingdom" shall be preached to humanity to the most distant part of the world and the end will come.

Which GOOD NEWS was Christ referring to? The very message that he handed down to the apostles while on earth.

Ladies and gentlemen. on that day one can not be excused for being ignorant.The Scriptures is clear about that. It is a choice that one has to make.

God says "I have set before you LIFE and DEATH. Choose LIFE that you may live".

God blessed Ishmael and his nation will be great, How great, what does that mean to you? That Gods promise! Why the emphasis on Isaac and his lineage only?

We have to understand that Ishmael was blessed also because he was a child of Abraham.

However, Isaac was the promised child. He was the promised child. God told Abraham that it in Isaac that his seed be called.

The seed is first mentioned after the fall of man, as in Genesis 3.

God promised Abraham that is is by means of you that whole world would be blessed. This is the promise that God gave to Abraham after Abraham passed the test of faith in his readiness to sacrifice Isaac.

If Abraham was prepared to sacrifice Isaac(after Ismael and mother had left the family), then God was one day going to offer his Son as the real sacrifice for humanity, and that Son would come to the earth from the line of Abraham through Isaac.

Please read Mathew. on account, of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the promised SEED.

Indeed, through Abraham, the whole world (mankind) is blessed. However, you must receive the blessing, for it is yours for the taking. God will not force it on you. He said I have set before you Life and Death. Choose Life that you may live. Jesus himself said that WHOEVER believes. Your Baptism and your confession of Christ matters a lot.

Also, do not be deceived by expressions like Abrahamic religions. There is only one Faith and one Baptism. Abraham himself spoke prophetically about Christ on the way to mountain moriah when he told Isaac that God would provide the lamb. And God did provide the lamb of God which taketh away the sins of the world.

The line of Truth runs from the OT to the NT. Jesus Christ read and quoted from the Hebrew scriptures and ascribed the writings to himself. Indeed he came in the volume of the Scriptures.

Paul, prophetically, wrote that if anyone comes and present a Christ different from what we have received, even if an angel, let that person be accursed. Therefore, anything short of that cannot be compromised.

My humble advice to you is that think about your life and that of your family as to whether they have given their lifes to Christ and get BAPTISED by immersion.

But what happened?

Its a shame God allowed such infamous
disposition if it wasn't immortal men that behaved/impersonated God.
Cuz, the God we have been made to acknowledge could not have supported discrimination/immoral act.
Otherwise, this act of God was abjectly unethical, inhuman and unchristian.(caps mine)

"However, Isaac was the promised child.
God told Abraham that, it is in Isaac that his seed be called."

Just listen to yourself as you read the above lines again and see if you are a rational being.(caps mine)

Was this God fair to Ismail."?
If he was, doesn't this tell us that God blatantly had either refused, or failed to recognize the other child of Abraham?.
Aren't we told God is no respecter of persons?
How is this not discrimination amongst Gods own people if the above scenario wasn't according to the dictates of men who rules at the time orchestrated to seem the feared God's hands in it?

At the end of it all, men have always known that, religion of any kind is man made. Its Man's own arrangement in a political fiesta to lord over his fellowmen under the pretext of an almighty God above.
The selection of the Pope and presidents of other nations, believed to be a choice made by God is a joke of all time.
Such a thing does not exist.
Its a complete pigmentation of man's own arrangement, and or self-imagination.(caps mine)
