He is spoken of as "The Word of God", as "The Spirit of God", as a "Sign of God", and numerous other epithets of honor spread over fifteen different chapters. What else do we want? (1)"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh, and dwell among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father) full of grace and truth." John 1:1&14
(2)"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." Genesis 1:1-2
Jesus is the Word and Spirit of God.(the Quran cannot and hasn't deny that)
The Word of God is God
The Spirit of God is God
The Word of God was made flesh and lived with us (Emmanuel)
Thank you Holy Spirit.. Jesus is Lord.

You should rather your God given brain to think for your self and not just believe what the church teaches but what the bible teaches. For example let us consider the teachings of Jesus Christ in the Bible: Jesus laid emphasis on obeying the devine law and submitting to God's command as was taught by Moses and other prophets earlier. For example, in Mathew 5:17 "Do not think I have come to abolish the law (Law of Moses), or the prophets; I have come not to abolish, but to fulfill it" and also in Mathew 15:7-9 "....these people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, they worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men (like Paul)". Jesus made it very clear that Salvation is through keeping God's commandments, following his teachings, doing righteous deeds and repentance from sin. These are the only requirements of salvation. If we read in Mathew 19:17 a man who wants to go to heaven asked Jesus, 'Good master, what things must I do to enter life eternally (in paradise), Jesus rebuked the man and said "why do you call me good? There is only one who is good, but if you wish to enter in to life eternally in heaven, keep the commandments" Here Jesus did not the tell the man that he (Jesus) will die for him but rather encouraged him to keep the commandments because no one shall bear the burden of any other. we also read in John 17:3 "And this is life eternal, that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent". Also in Mathew 5:20 "For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and the pharasees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven" and in Luke 13:3 "No, I tell you, but unless you repent, you will all perish as they did". But Paul presented a very simplistic formula to attain salvation , which is in sharp contrast to the teachings of Jesus Christ as we read in Romans 10:9 " That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord' and believe in your heart that God raised him fro dead, you will be saved" this means you need not do any work, you can Robb, fornicate, or do any thing evil, the sin involved in all these crimes are already taken care of by Jesus, the only condition for you to be saved is to confess that Jesus died for you. But Jesus warned those 'Christians' who do not follow him in Mathew 7:21-23 "Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter into the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my father in heaven. On that day (i.e. Judgment day) many will say to me 'Lord, Lord', did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many deeds of power in your name? Then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; go away from me, you evil doers". So my brother think and don't follow blindly. Be reasonable.

The quaran reminds me of how the rulers in the time of Jesus paid people to spread falsehood that the body of Jesus was stolen by His disciple!!! People would do any and everything to distort the truth and to confuse people.

My brother it is rather the truth that is being told according the Qur'an and the Bible.The question to ask is Was the Person on the Cross Really Jesus?
The Bible says “For the LORD loves the just and will not forsake his faithful ones. They will be protected forever, but the offspring of the wicked will be cut off;” (Psalms 37:28)
But yet when Jesus Christ (pbuh) was put on the cross according to the Bible. He cried out
“About the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eloi, Eloi lama sabachthani?"—which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" (Mathew 27:46) and (Mark 15:34)
How can Jesus be forsaken when God does not forsake his faithful ones?? Now the Christians have four options to choose from.
1. The person put on the cross was not really Jesus.
2. Jesus (pbuh) was not faithful to God.
3. Jesus (pbuh) lied that God forsook him.
4. Bible is lying when it says that God does not forsake his beloved ones.
You have four options to choose from. Now with whatever gymnastics you try. You cannot add a fifth option here. So decide for yourself.

It's Psalm 37:28 is very true. Matthew 27:46 is also very true.

God didn't turn his face away from Jesus because He was not faithful to God and the likes.
Jesus on the cross (though was without sin) had taken unto him the sins of the world including yours and mine for atonement. So God wouldn't look at him because of our sins laid on him until the atonement was completed. God cannot behold sin.

Master I am happy that you are creating a platform for intellectual debate devoid of insults, I like that. I actually want again as you requested. For a proper understanding of the teachings of Jesus, it is important to examine properly who he was, in what capacity he taught and what his mission was. The answers are given by Jesus himself as recorded the Gospel writings of the new testament; I will mention some points I have come across in the Bible concerning who Jesus really was.
The New Testament refers many times to Jesus as God's servant (see Matthew. 12:18 for example). Now read Acts 2:22: "Men of Israel, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a MAN accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know." How then could Jesus be God's servant and God at the same time? Read John 17:21, “That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me”, and you will deduce that if God, Jesus and the Holy Ghost form one unity of the Trinity, then with the disciples included they should form a God unity of fifteen (15).

Some Christians do quote John 14:9 to support their argument that Jesus is God; " ...he that hath seen me hath seen the Father." Now let's read John 4:24: "God is a Spirit..." and John 5:37: " ...ye have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His shape." And 1 Timothy 6:16: " ...whom no man hath seen nor can see...."

What the disciples saw was Jesus, the Prophet, and not God. John 5:37: " ...ye have neither heard His (God) voice at any time, nor seen His shape," also contradicts Matthew 3:17 in which it is said that God was heard saying "this is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

At this point let me mention what the Quran (5:73) says about the Trinity: "They disbelieve who say: Allah is one ofthree (In a Trinity) for there is no god except One God.If they desist notfrom their word (ofblasphemy), verily a grievous chastisement will befall the disbelievers among them. "

It is common knowledge that the divinity of Jesus was introduced by Paul, who never met Jesus or his followers,

In the New Testament, Jesus specifically said (Matthew 5:17 & 18): "Think not that I come to destroy the law or the prophets, I come not to destroy but to fulfill..." he came not to destroy the law, and he confirms that in relationship to the oneness of God in Mark 12:29: "And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, 0 Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord." And 1 Corinthians 8:4: " ...none other God but one."

Jesus made it very clear that Salvation is through keeping God's commandments,as I mentioned in my previous comment, following his teachings, doing righteous deeds and repentance from sin. These are the only requirements of salvation. If we read in Mathew 19:17 a man who wants to go to heaven asked Jesus, 'Good master, what things must I do to enter life eternally (in paradise), Jesus rebuked the man and said "why do you call me good? There is only one who is good, but if you wish to enter in to life eternally in heaven, keep the commandments" Here Jesus did not the tell the man that he (Jesus) will die for him but rather to keep the commandments. It means that salvation is dependent on one’s actions and not on the death of somebody.
We also read in John 17:3 "And this is life eternal, that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent". Also in Mathew 5:20 "For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and the pharasees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven" and in Luke 13:3 "No, I tell you, but unless you repent, you will all perish as they did".
But Paul presented a very simplistic formula to attain salvation , which is in sharp contrast to the teachings of Jesus Christ as we read in Romans 10:9 " That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord' and believe in your heart that God raised him from dead, you will be saved" this means you need not do any work, you can commit Robbery, fornicate, or do anything evil, the sin involved in all these crimes have been paid for already by Jesus Christ, the only condition for you to be saved is to confess that Jesus died for you. But Jesus warned those 'Christians' who do not follow him in Mathew 7:21-23 "Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter into the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my father in heaven. On that day (i.e. Judgment day) many will say to me 'Lord, Lord', did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many deeds of power in your name? Then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; go away from me, you evil doers".
It is clear that Jesus never claimed divinity to God but referred to himself as ‘son of man’: "When you have lifted up the son of man, then you will realize that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own, ...(John 8:28). "For the son of man came to seek out and to save the lost" (Luke 19:10). "My Father is greater that I," (John 14:28); In John 5:30 “ I can’t of my own self do nothing…”. Then Further, Luke 4:1-13 tell us that Jesus was tempted by Satan for forty days. In James 1:13, it says: " ...for God cannot be tempted with evil..."
Jesus also referred himself as 'a man' "but now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth" (John 8:40).
Jesus presented himself as a prophet and a messenger of God, and a representative of the kingdom of heaven. He invited his people to follow him in that capacity only: "Yet today, tomorrow, and the next day I must be on my way, because it is impossible for a PROPHET to be killed outside of Jerusalem" (Luke 13:33). "But Jesus said to the 'A prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown, and among his own kin, and in his own house' (Mark 6:4). Also, his people did recognize him as a prophet of God "The crowds answered 'This is Jesus, the PROPHET form Nazareth in Galilee" (Mathew 21:11).
"Jesus answered them, 'My teaching is not mine, but his who SENT ME' (John 7:16). and in Mark 9:37 "...and whoever welcomes me, welcomes not me, but the one who SENT ME". and in John 12:49 "...for I have not spoken on my own, but the Father who SENT ME has himself given me a commandment about what to say and what to speak".
Jesus believed in the worship of God alone, and made it the ultimate aim of all his activities. For example, in Mathew 4:10 "Worship the Lord your God and serve him only". Also, in John 4:34 "My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to complete his work".
Before closing this subject, let me present one more thought. In Luke 5:16, when Jesus withdrew himself into the wilderness to pray, who did he pray to? Himself or God? Read Luke 11 :24: And he said unto them, "W'hen ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done,as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil."

Is there anywhere in this prayer that Jesus said to say, "In Jesus name" when you pray? For this prayer was the answer to the question; how should we pray? Everything a God fearing person could ever need or ask of God is in this prayer. Most importantly, the forgiveness of our trespasses (sins). This prayer supports the good news of Jesus that sins are forgiven by God only if a person repents and stop their wrong doings. This message was the beginning of Jesus' ministry as stated in Matthew 4:17: From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, "Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.". More Soon. Thank you.

The most fatal mistake a man can ever make is to live without a recognition of the authority of God's law in his life.

"Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil."
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14.

But can man keep the law?

"But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away." Isaiah 64:6

"Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified (not guilty) in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin." Romans
3:20.

Given that man's sinful past contaminates his present desire to obey God, what does he have to do to obey God?

The answer in two words: Jesus Christ.
{He is the Initiator and the Ratifier of God's grace (Isaiah 49:8)}.

"He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God." John 1:10-13.

Effects of Adam's sin and grace (the imputation and impartation of the merits of Christ's righteousness to the believer's account)

"Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified (declared not guilty) in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation (reconciliation, at-one-ment) through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God"
Romans 3:19-25.

Jesus did not come to planet earth by chance or because of any sin He had committed. He came to be God's example of sinlessness in the life of the believer so that he can mediate the merits of his righteousness to all who believe in his vicarious life.

Romans 5:17 - For if one man's offence meant that men should be slaves to death all their lives, it is a far greater thing that through another man, Jesus Christ, men by their acceptance of his more than sufficient grace and righteousness, should live all their lives like kings!

Romans 5:18-19 - We see, then, that as one act of sin exposed the whole race of men to God's judgment and condemnation, so one act of perfect righteousness presents all men freely acquitted in the sight of God. One man's disobedience placed all men under the threat of condemnation, but one man's obedience has the power to present all men righteous before God.

Grace is a bigger thing than the Law

Romans 5:20-21 - Now we find that the Law keeps slipping into the picture to point the vast extent of sin. Yet, though sin is shown to be wide and deep, thank God his grace is wider and deeper still! The whole outlook changes - sin used to be the master of men and in the end handed them over to death: now grace is the ruling factor, with righteousness as its purpose and its end the bringing of men to the eternal life of God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

The Verdict.

"There is therefore now no condemnation (no guilty verdict) to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh (the old nature which loves to sin), but after the Spirit." Romans 8:1

THE STORY OF YUSUF (ra), ALONG WITH THE BIRTH OF PROPHET ISSA (ra) I CAN SAY, ARE AMONG THE VERY DIFFICULT SUBJECTS FROM THE QURAN THAT SOME BUT KNOWLEDGEABLE CHRISTIANS WOULD ACCEPT. THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE: WHILE THE EARLIER WORD OF GOD, IE THE BIBLE WAS NARRATIVE TRANSFERS AND LATER "DOCUMENTED", THE LATTER WORD OF GOD, IE THE QURAN, CAME AS INSPIRATION THROUGH ONE INDIVIDUAL, AND UNADULTERATED, THAT SINGLE INDIVIDUAL WAS NON OTHER THAN GOD'S OWN MESSENGER CALLED MUHAMMAD (SAW). IN OTHER WORDS, ONE UNLETTERED MAN'S WORD AGAINST VARIOUS VERSIONS OF GOD'S WORD AS FOUND IN THE BIBLE. I WILL ALWAYS TELL THE WRITER TO CARRY ON WITH HIS WORK, FOR I KNOW A COUPLE OF CHRISTIANS WHO ARE IMPRESSED BY HIS WORK, AND SOME OF HIS PRESENT CRITICS WILL WISE UP SOONER OR LATER.

Unwittingly Muslims are repeating the same fatal mistake Israel made when they rejected Jesus as the Savior, and the life of their Jewish economy.
In no uncertain terms God warns us in 1 Corinthians 10:5-6 that "Howbeit with most of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted."

Type was about to meet antitype in the Jewish economy. Jesus, the Lamb of God who takest away the sin of the world (John 1:29) was about to be offered as the Ratifier of the New Covenant of grace (Isaiah 49:8, 1 Corinthians 11:25). Will Israel accept Him as heir Savior from sin?

"Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come" John 8:21.

"Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth" Romans 10:1-4.

Why is Christ the end of the law for everyone that believeth?

"We see, then, that as one act of sin exposed the whole race of men to God's judgment and condemnation, so one act of perfect righteousness presents all men freely acquitted in the sight of God. One man's disobedience placed all men under the threat of condemnation, but one man's obedience has the power to present all men righteous before God."
Romans 5:18-19.

Grace is a bigger thing than the Law. It imputes and imparts the merits of Christ's righteousness (sinlessness) to the believer by faith. God sees the believer as sinless because he sees his own moral character in the believer. In the law court in heaven, Christ is an advocate (lawyer) and the high priest (mediator) for his people. He is still in the business of taking new clients-- all are invited, Muslims included. He is only a prayer away.

"Now we find that the Law keeps slipping into the picture to point the vast extent of sin. Yet, though sin is shown to be wide and deep, thank God his grace is wider and deeper still! The whole outlook changes - sin used to be the master of men and in the end handed them over to death: now grace is the ruling factor, with righteousness as its purpose and its end the bringing of men to the eternal life of God through Jesus Christ our Lord"
