Christianity teaches that we are born with sin \u2013which we inherited from Adam.<br \/>\nTo say that God sent us into the world as sinners is to say that we are criminals by nature \u2013that God sent us with two little horns on our forehead and a barbed tail on our behinds (as devils);<br \/>\nAnd as we are criminal by nature then we are incapable of upholding law \u2013any law; Divine and human. And as we are incapable of upholding any law then, according to this Christian doctrine of \u201coriginal\u201d\/inherited sin, the human laws and courts and punishments are an affront to God and man. We are hopeless pawns in the hands of the Christian God.<br \/>\nAnd if God did not put this \u201coriginal\u201d sin onto the progeny of Adam how then is it passed on to mankind? and how can the murder of Jesus free us from this sin?<br \/>\n(See <a href=\"https:\/\/nogodbutallah.org\/?page_id=270\">Jesus-inherited sin to ascension<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Unlike Islam which gives man a free choice, (Judaism) and Christianity requires that apostates be killed (details later).<br \/>\nIncidentally, the Gospel of Mark 16:16-18 reports Jesus as saying: <span style=\"color: #800080;\">\u201cHe that believeth and is baptized shall be saved\u2026They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them.\u201d<br \/>\n<\/span>Would baptized Christian like to take up a serpent or drink any deadly thing?

And if you all die, well, you will get to sit with Jesus sooner \u201con the right hand of God\u201d\u2013(Mark 16:19) (See <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/nogodbutallah.org\/?page_id=103\">Christians-drinking deadly thing<\/a>)<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, before you blindly rush out to give \u201cflesh\u201d to Jesus\u2019 words, be forewarned, Christians who tried to do so \u201cgave up the ghost\u201d (they died! See the <em>Internet<\/em>).<br \/>\nMore pressingly, Jesus did NOT utter these words.

But where the <em>raf\u2019<\/em> of a man to Allah is spoken of in the Holy Qur\u2019an, or in the religious literature of Islam, it is always in the latter sense, for raising a man in his body to Himself implies that the Divine Being is limited to a place. This is made plain by the prayer which every Muslim repeats several times daily in his prayers in the sitting position between the two prostrations: <em>wa-rfa\u2019-ni<\/em>, meaning <em>and exalt me.\u00a0 <\/em>Of course no one supposes this prayer to be for the raising of the body to the heavens. Hence even those commentators who are predisposed, having, no doubt, been misled by Christian tradition, to accept Jesus Christ as having been raised alive to heaven, have been compelled to admit that the word <em>raf\u2019<\/em> is here used not for raising aloft but for <em>exalting and honouring. <\/em>And commenting on the words which follow this statement, Rz says: <em>This shows that raf\u2019 here is the exalting in degree and in praise, not in place and direction.<\/em>\u00a0 The exaltation of Jesus is mentioned here as a reply to the Jews, whose object was to make him die an accursed and ignominious death on the cross.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cBeing exalted in the Divine presence was opposed to being killed on the cross.

The former view is reflected in The Acts 5:30\u2026The Qur\u2019an refutes both these views by saying, <em>they slew him not, nor did they bring about his death on the cross.<\/em>\u00a0The Qur\u2019an rejects the slaying of Jesus in any form, and then proceeds to deny the particular way of killing by hanging on the cross. It does not deny that Jesus was hung on the cross; it only denies his death on it.\u201d\u2013(Comm. 699).<br \/>\nAnd Muhammad Ali notes: \u201cThe words <em>ma salabu-hu<\/em> (of the Arabic text) do not negative Jesus\u2019 being nailed to the cross; they negative his having expired on the cross as a result of being nailed to it<em>.

The new faith interpreted the career of Jesus by means of the titles and functions assigned to David in the mysticism of the Zion cult, in which he served as priest-king and in which he was the mediator between God and man.\u201d<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><sup>9<\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Clearly, Christians cut Jesus to fit David according to their imaginations.

Derived from Indo-Iranian (or Indo-European) sources and transformed through Jewish concepts of history, the theme of the ages of the world that most influenced Christianity came from the apocalyptic speculation that flourished during the period of the rise of Christianity.<br \/>\n\u2026It was Iranian mythological concepts of the ages of the world, translated though Jewish apocalyptic views, that most influenced Christian views of time, history, and man\u2019s ultimate destiny.<br \/>\n\u2026The theme of the ages of the world and its attendant subthemes that came primarily from Iranian mythology were transformed by apocalyptic literature\u2013\u2013which flourished in Judaism and then Christianity from about the 2nd century BC to about 2nd century AD\u2013\u2013into a historical context, though Zoroastrian had done this in reference to the last age. Indo-Iranian myth was thus historicized through the Judeo-Christian view of historical time as the arena of struggle between good and evil. The four ages of the world in Christianity are: (1) from creation of the world and man to the Fall of man; (2) from the Fall of man to the first advent of Christ; (3) from the first to the second advent of Christ, which includes the 1,000-year reign of Christ and his saints and the Last Judgment; and (4) the creation of a new heaven and a new earth in which those who have chosen the good (<em>i.e.,<\/em> Christ) will live in eternity.\u201d<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><sup>12<\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Note well these Christian apocalyptic writings are not Divine revelations.

Mohammad was certain of his mission, to deliver the message of All\u0101h\u2013(Qur\u2019an 3:19).<br \/>\nJesus was not certain about his mission. Initially, Jesus says he came only to the Jews, that he prayed only for them\u2013(Matt. 15:24; John 17:9); ordered his disciples not to go to the Gentiles and Samaritans, and viewed non-Jews as \u201cdogs\u201d and \u201cswine\u201d\u2013(Matt. 10:5-6; 7:6; 15:26); and said he finished the work, which was to preach to the Jews\u2013(John 17:4; Luke 4:43). Yet, after the alleged crucifixion he is said to have instructed his disciples to go and \u201cteach all nations\u201d\u2013(Matt. 28: 19). <span style=\"color: #800080;\">Thus, Jesus was not greater than Mohammad.<\/span><\/li>\n<li>The greatest man must be aware of his status.

First, in response to the Jews, Jesus says he will give them a <em>&#8220;sign\u201d similar<\/em> to that of Jonas: as Jonas was <em>(alive) <\/em>in the whale&#8217;s belly for three days and three nights, he would be <em>(alive)<\/em> in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights\u2013(Matt. 12:39-40; Jonah 1:17; 2:1-10. If Jesus had died, his \u201csign\u201d would not be as Jonas). Then, Jesus said he will be \u201cbetrayed and crucified\u201d\u2013(Matt. 26:2). Yet, after the alleged crucifixion Jesus told his \u201cterrified\u201d disciples he did <em>not <\/em>die, that he was <em>not<\/em> a resurrected person and therefore was <em>not<\/em> spirit: \u201cBehold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for <em>a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have<\/em>\u201d \u2013(Luke 24:39).

Neither the word Trinity, nor the explicit doctrine as such, appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his followers intend to contradict the Sheema of the Old Testament: \u201cHear. O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord\u201d (Deut. 6:4). The earliest Christians, however, had to cope with the implications of the coming of Jesus Christ and of the presence and power of God among them \u2013<em>i.e. <\/em>the Holy spirit whose coming was connected with the celebration of the Pentecost. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit were associated in such New Testament passages as the Great Commission: \u201cGo therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit\u201d (Matt. 28:19) and in the apostolic benediction: \u201cThe grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all\u201d (II Cor. 13:14). Thus, the New Testament established the basis for the doctrine of Trinity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The doctrine developed gradually over several centuries and through many controversies. Initially, both the requirements of monotheism inherited from the Old Testament and the implications of the need to interpret the biblical teaching to Greco-Roman paganism seemed to demand that the divine in Christ as the Word, or Logos, be interpreted as subordinate to the Supreme Being. An alternative solution was to interpret Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as three modes of the self-dis-closure of the one God but not as distinct within the being of God itself. The first tendency recognized the distinctness among the three, but at the cost of their equality and hence of their unity (subordinationism); the second came to terms with their unity, but at the cost of their distinctness as \u201cpersons\u201d (modalism). It was not until the 4th. century that the distinctness of the three and their unity were brought together in a single orthodox doctrine of one essence and three persons.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Council of Nicaea in 325 stated the crucial formula for that doctrine in its confession that the Son is \u201cof the same essence [<em>homoousios<\/em>] as the Father,\u201d even though it said very little about the Holy Spirit. Over the next half century, Athanasius defended and refined the Nicene formula, and, by the end of the 4th.

And fight not with them at the Sacred Mosque until they fight with you in it; so if they fight you (in it), slay them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\nThis verse clearly refers only to those who fight Muslims; not to all disbelievers everywhere.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">2:192: &#8220;<span style=\"color: #800080;\">But if they desist, then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\nThis verse makes it even clearer that not all disbelievers everywhere are to be killed, and for fighting to be stopped if the disbelievers cease fighting, as shown in the words \u201cBut if they desist, then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful\u201d to them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">2:193: <span style=\"color: #800080;\">And fight them until there is no persecution, and religion is only for Allah.

(Compare with Qur\u2019an 22:40 where Muslims are even to fight on behalf of non-Muslims, and as shown elsewhere Muslims fought on behalf of Christians against the Romans)<br \/>\nThis alone obliterates the critics charge and is sufficient proof that Islam is not only a religion of peace but that Islam is dedicated to peace.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Regarding Qur&#8217;an 9:29:\u00a0<span style=\"color: #800080;\">&#8220;Fight those who believe not in All\u00e5h, nor in the Last Day, nor forbid\u00a0that which All\u00e5h and His Messenger\u00a0have forbidden, nor follow the\u00a0Religion of Truth, out of those who\u00a0have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgement of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.&#8221;<\/span> Muhammad Ali explains:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe last word on the wars with the idolaters of Arabia having been said, this verse introduces the subject of fighting with the followers of the Book. Though the Jews had for a long time assisted the idolatrous Arabians in their struggle to uproot Islam, the great Christian power, the Roman Empire, had only just mobilized its forces for the subjection of the new religion, and the Tabuk expedition followed, which constitutes the subject-matter of a large portion of what follows in this chapter. As the object of this Christian power was simply the subjection of the Muslims, the words in which their final vanquishment by the Muslims is spoken of are different from those dealing with the final vanquishment of the idolatrous Arabians. The Qur\u2019an neither required that the idolaters should be compelled to accept Islam, nor was it in any way its object to bring the Christians into subjection. On the other hand, the idolaters wanted to suppress Islam by the sword, and the Christians first moved themselves to bring Muslim Arabia under subjection. The fate of each was, therefore, according to what it intended for the Muslims. The word\u00a0jizyah\u00a0is derived from jaza, meaning he gave satisfaction, and means, according to LL, the tax that is taken from the free non-Muslim subjects of the Muslim Government whereby they ratify the compact that ensures them protection; or, according to AH,\u00a0because it is a compensation for the protection which is guaranteed them, the non-Muslim subjects being free from military service.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The phrase\u00a0\u2018an yad-in\u00a0has been explained variously. The word\u00a0yad\u00a0(lit.,\u00a0hand) stands for\u00a0power\u00a0or\u00a0superiority, the use of the\u00a0hand\u00a0being the real source of the superiority of man over all other animals, and the apparent meaning of the phrase is\u00a0in acknowledgement of your superiority in protecting their lives, etc.\u00a0(AH). It may also be added that the permission to fight, as given to the Muslims, is subject to the condition that the enemy should first take up the sword,\u00a0Fight in the way of Allah against those who fight against you\u00a0(2:190). The Holy Prophet never overstepped this limit, nor did his followers. He fought against the Arabs when they took up the sword to destroy the Muslims, and he led an expedition against the Christians when the Roman Empire first mobilized its forces with the object of subjugating the Muslims. And so scrupulous was he that, when he found that the enemy had not yet taken the initiative, he did not attack the Roman Empire, but returned without fighting. Later on, however, the Roman Empire, like the Persians, helped the enemies of Islam and fomented trouble against the newly established Muslim Kingdom, as a result of which both these empires came into conflict with the Muslims and, notwithstanding the fact that both the Persians and the Romans were very powerful nations with unlimited resources and strong military organizations, and that they both tried at one and the same time to subjugate Islam, the result was what is predicted here in clear words \u2014 they were both reduced to a state of subjection by an insignificant nation like the Arabs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Had the enemies not militated to annihilate Muslims they would not have been \u201creduced to a state of subjection.\u201d<br \/>\nWhereas striving with the \u201csword\u201d is necessary to overcome aggression, occupation and oppression, striving with the Qur\u2019an is known as the \u201cgreat\u201d Jihad \u2013Jihad kabiran, (Qur\u2019an 25:52).

Are we to presume that Jesus was devoid of the Holy Ghost if his coming was conditional on the going of Jesus: besides, the way in which Jesus describes him makes him a human being, not a ghost. \u201cHe shall not speak of himself, but whatsoever he shall hear that he shall speak\u201d (John 16:13). Should we presume that the Holy Ghost and God are two distinct entities and that the Holy Ghost speaks of himself and also what he hears from God? The words of Jesus clearly refer to some messenger from God. He calls him the Spirit of Truth, and so the Qur\u2018an speaks of Muhammad, \u201cNay, he has come with the Truth and verified the apostles\u201d (Qur\u2019an 37:37). (<em>Muhammad In The Bible, <\/em>p. 6).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<span style=\"color: #800080;\"> \u00a0 \u00a0APPENDIX II<\/span><br \/>\nRegarding God\u2019s covenant with Abraham about his sons Ishmael and Isaac, Professor \u2018Abdul Ahad Dawud <span style=\"color: #800080;\">\u2013the former Reverend David Benjamin Keldani, B.D., a Roman Catholic priest of the Uniate-Chaldean sect\u2013<\/span> explains in his revealing book <em>Muhammad In The Bible<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThere are three distinct points which every true believer in God must accept as truths. The first point is that <em>Ishmael is the legitimate son of Abraham,<\/em> his firstborn, and therefore his claim to birthright is quite just and legal. The second point is that the Covenant was made between God and Abraham as well as his <em>only <\/em>son Ishmael<em> before Isaac was born. <\/em>The Covenant and the institution of the Circumcision would have no value or signification unless the repeated promise contained in the divine words, \u201cThroughout thee all the nations of the earth shall be blessed,\u201d and especially the expression, the Seed \u201cthat shall come out from the bowels, <strong><em>he<\/em><\/strong> will inherit thee\u201d (Gen. xv. 4). <em>This promise was fulfilled when Ishmael was born <\/em>(Gen. xvi.), and Abraham had the consolation that his chief servant Eliezer would no longer be his heir. Consequently we must admit that <em>Ishmael was the real and legitimate heir of Abraham\u2019s spiritual dignity and privileges.<\/em> The prerogative that \u201cby Abraham all the generations of the earth shall be blessed,\u201d so often repeated\u2013though in different forms\u2013 was <em>the heritage by birthright, and was the patrimony of Ishmael.<\/em> The inheritance to which Ishmael was entitled by birthright was not the tent in which Abraham lived or a certain camel upon which he used to ride, but <strong><em>to subjugate and occupy forever all the territories extending from the Nile to the Euphrates<\/em><\/strong><em>, <\/em>which were inhabited by some ten different nations (Gen. xvii. 18-21). These lands have never been subdued by the descendants of Isaac,<em> <strong>but by those of Ishmael<\/strong>. This is an actual and literal fulfilment of one of the conditions contained in\u00a0 the Covenant.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The third point is that Isaac was also born miraculously and specially blessed by the Almighty, that for his people the land of Canaan was promised and actually occupied under Joshua. \u2026.<br \/>\n\u2026.<em>The Jews have always been jealous of Ishmael because they know very well that <strong>in him<\/strong> the Covenant was made and with his circumcision it was concluded and sealed, and it is out of this rancour that their scribes or doctors of law have corrupted and interpolated many passages in their Scriptures.<\/em> To <strong><em>efface the name \u201cIshmael\u201d<\/em><\/strong> from the second, sixth, and seventh verses of the twenty-second chapter of the Book of Genesis and to <em>insert in its place \u201cIsaac,\u201d<\/em> and to leave the descriptive epithet \u201cthy only begotten son\u201d <em>is to deny the existence of the former and to violate the Covenant made between God and Ishmael. <\/em>It is expressly said in this chapter by God: \u201cBecause thou didst not spare thy only begotten son, I will increase and multiply thy posterity like the stars and the sands on the seashore,\u201d which word \u201cmultiply\u201d was used by the Angel <em>to Hagar<\/em> in the wilderness: I will multiply thy offspring to an innumerable multitude, and that Ishmael<em> \u201cshall become a fruitful man\u201d<\/em> (Gen. xvi. 12. <em>It is <strong>Muslims<\/strong> whose numbers are<\/em> <strong><em>\u201clike the stars and the sands on the seashore\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\u2013(Gen. 22:17). Now the Christians have translated the same Hebrew word, which means \u201cfruitful\u201d or \u201cplentiful\u201d from the verb <em>para<\/em>\u2013identical with the Arabic <em>wefera<\/em>\u2013in their versions \u201ca wild ass\u201d!\u00a0 <strong><em>Is it not a shame and impiety<\/em><\/strong> to call Ishmael \u201ca wild ass\u201d whom God styles \u201cFruitful\u201d or \u201cPlentiful\u201d?\u201d (pp. 30-32.

The fact was discovered by the first translator of the Bible into English and they made a marginal note in their version of the Bible which continued for some time. But we do not find the said note in any of the copies now published by the said society (Foreign Mission Society). Is it fair and honest to keep others in darkness as to the true value of the contents of the Bible? The reader must know that concluding portion of St. Mark and the verse in St. Matthew are spurious and a subsequent addition. But I am afraid the Foreign Mission would not allow the correction. It would tell against their very Mission, if they eliminate the verse from St. Matthew; they lose the only pillar that supports the structure of the Trinity. No other verse in the whole Scripture speaks of it. The said eleven verses of St. Mark are the only justification for the existence of the Foreign Mission. You, as well as I, know, my Lord, that the call to Jesus came solely and wholly from Judaism. He came only to gather the scattered sheep and would not give the children\u2019s bread to the dogs, the world beyond the Israelites. The Foreign Mission is a mere trespass on lands forbidden by the Master. It transcends the limit marked by Jesus. Throughout his life the Gentiles and others did not concern him: they were the swine. Then came the make-believe Resurrection, and they say the Master changed his mind as to his mission and ordered it to be carried to the four corners of the world <em>(indicating that he was unsure of his mission)<\/em>, but this all depends upon the questionable verses of St. Mark, and hence their retention\u00a0 in the Bible. St. Matthew is no authority on this point. The word \u201cnations\u201d there is a mistranslation and a wrong substitute for \u201cthe tribes\u201d\u2013the rest of the Jewish tribes scattered all over the world. This being the case, the Mission cannot afford to eliminate the verses from their version, nor will they put marginal notes, as did the old versions, to show the true nature of the verses. It would weaken the cause and show the futility of their status, since in carrying on evangelical work in the non-Christian world they are acting against the express admonition of the Master. It may be that reasons other than religion are at the back of it all, and goading their activities, but decency, if not religion, assuredly demands the publishing of things as they are.\u201d<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"> (Even if Jesus had said to teach the Gospels to all nations, yet this would not make Jesus Divine of vicarious atoner).<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"color: #800080;\">What man would adulterate the Book of God \u2013the very God from Whom he seeks his daily bread; the very God Whom he expects to give him a mansion in heaven?
