[Megroyo]

The christians in Indonesia is offering $50,000 to anyone who understood their bible and convert to their religion.

Any taker???

Would any Muslims want to sell their religion for $50K. Isn't that greed and corruption.

Is having a religion - trying to be closer to God or having material?

The Christians in Indonesia and asia are like that. They insult their own faith.

@Megroyo

Excellent comment.

JazakAllah kahir :)

[walaal765]

the bible was changeed if you truly speak of truth why can't you all christians and jews agree also why your religon doesn't talk about stoping all this violence

[walaal765]

john is just a human if you want real prove read somthing that never changes since allah sended it the quran

[walaal765]

you people stop talking before your chance ends and LEARN before you speak about anything

[Megroyo]

Friend tat is not the truth! Pls find out from knowledgeable Muslims about ur understanding about Islam and the Life of Prophet Muhammad.

There is no hadith that says Muhammad is pedophile etc.. Please read up from the Author who are has no bias about Islam.

You must know that there are many liars in this world.

In the pass Bible is accepted in Islam. But because of many inconsitencies, Muslims cannot rely on the bible anymore.

U have to learn without biasness.

[Megroyo]

It is very disrespectful of you to come to this video and criticise Muhammad Messenger of God, whom you know nothing about.

You prefer to believe in the lies spread by the media and morons.

How would you feel when u are actually innocent but people spread the untruth about you? Don't you thnk that is bias?

If you don't believe in Islamic religion why are you here? Just to condemn Islam?

To pull Muslims to your beliefs and do more evils like u?

[Megroyo]

Where did u learn that Muhammad is Pedophile, rapist, mass murderer, torturer? You know nothing about Prophet Muhammad. But u only learn from ppl who tell lies about Islam and lies about Muhammad. You are bias! who never use your head. And Muhammad is not the Messenger of Jesus, But both Jesus and Muhammad are Messengers of God the Creator of the universe.

U did not even realise that your own believe does not makes sense at all that ur god is so dependant on a human flesh.

[ChrististheSaviour]

Jesus is God and He claim to be so. Jesus said And Jesus said nobody can go to Father except through Jesus (Jhon 14:6) Please accept His offer to bring you to Heaven. Please accept Jesus as your saviour in your life. Remember finnaly its just between us and God, we only have a chance while we are still alive. Please guys Jesus loves you all co much and really want to save everyone of us. Make the right decision guys for Hell and Heaven are eternal. JESUS LOVES YOU VERY MUCH

[Megroyo]

Oh thanks, Muslims know that Jesus loves us. Jesus never claim he is God. Please read your bible again. Please don't put words into Jesus mouth. Please don't lie what Jeus didn't say.

Jesus is a Messenger of God, and wants us to follow Muhammad (peace be upon them both). Please accept There is no god worthy of worship other than Allah, the Creator of the Universe, and Muhammad is His Messenger.

[ChrististheSaviour]

i will never put my mouth into Jesus mouth, indeed yes Jesus claim to be God.

Here is where

. JHON 13:13 You call me teacher and LORD, AND YOU SAY WELL FOR SO I AM.

JHON 8:58 Jesus said to them: " Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM"

That's why the first time Father created earth He said US not I. (Genesis 1:26)

[Megroyo]

Al-Ikhlas

SAY: "He is the One God:

"God the Eternal, the Uncaused Cause of All Being. "He begets not, and neither is He begotten;

"and there is nothing that could be compared with Him.

[ChrististheSaviour]

Romans 10:9

that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead you will be saved.

So now you already know the only way to get salvation that God offers to you. the decision is yours, it's up to you want to accept it or not... Jesus loves you

[mattyflails]

so long as so all as shall follow one path

paganism, wicca, ethogiens, christians, muslims ,athiests ,satists, all shall come to feel the beautiful wrath of gods divine power. lol just look to the sunset on the 21st of december, and u will see your god REJOICE 20012 approaches

[pujaantarbangsa]

whos the name of guy Dr.Billal mention who've done mass killing because d declined stock market?

[chaplen45]

god doesnt need our worship, but worship is for us to reach our natural potienal? so why not focus on reaching our natural potential and study those traits and behavior, insteads of having to declare a religion or maybe humans need to feel a part of something bigger than they feel themselves to be. they need to appease their gult instead of bringing out the god within them, it may be possible for a non muslims to lead a moral life no alchol, no sex before marriage and search for truth too

[SharkAttackWally123]

ceyhan49 said that all religions are meant to be about peace. Ever heard of the Crusades? Or the Spanish Inquisition? Or 9/11?

As Salam Walykum w.w.

Okay im sorry but I also dont like his reply to the terrorist question...now im kind of suspious about him as a Muslim scholar who actually ACTED as GUIDE for American Soldiers during the Gulf War!

HELLO Shiekh!...what were the soldiers exactly doing the region!?...killing Muslims... it seems as if u YOUR no different from some of those hypocritical Saudi "Sheikhs"...

Sorry I dont in anyway want to be rude..just stating some facts.

pEaCe OuT

[pegm9]

Dr Bilal do not understand the word Son and nor its meaning.Son means come out of but Muhammad was always run after women that is why his concept was that Son is only from intercoursing man and woman.but he did not understand the spiritual meaning

oneness where is one ness ? read 53:18-21 Suran Star in arabic called Alnajim.

Lat Minat and Uzza are muhamamd's gods.

read sura 19:19 Mariyam.Holy Baby is Jesus

God is Holy and Jesus born by Holy Spirit is Holy because he is came out of God.

[selman84]

I doesn't matter what particular fiath you are in hindsight, however you can judge the heart and the light of the true spirit and nature in which we were created by a person's gentleness.Dr.Bilal Phillips has a gentle soul.Whether ur a muslim or not you can see he is at peace!Allahu Akbar!

Al Humdulillah jzk for this video

[alboaviator]

well from what i heard, im not totally sure, but the jews were the chosen ones. but they

[saleha250]

Does anybody know about Mr. Bilal's teaching position in the Deen College (Toronto) or when it will be open to students?

[harmonicamajor]

well, he is not just "Mr." He is a student of knowledge and we must respect our teachers.

[saleha250]

Giving his name the prefix "Mr" does not reduce any of my respect for his title or credentials.

I know who he is, and what his accomplishments are, otherwise I would not be inquiring about being a student of his at the college which he will be teaching at.

[albaislam]

so im geusing he is bosinian

[mafiamob2005]

i love brother bilal hes a very smart brother may allah bless him :)

[ukhtinoor]

Asalaamualaykum, very interesting lecture. Excellent information, will be helpful for me when I talk about religion to my non Muslim co-workers;which we do alot. Alhamdulillah!

[nicerperson]

Ok, so was the bible ok before this nicea, you saying constantine got it changed?

[yaserkhan]

kindly watch the series of youtube videos titled "Misquoting Jesus" by Bart Ehrman

[nicerperson]

Four times Jesus is called Alpha and Omega in revelation, this is where we get the phrase from. That is why I am surprised at Dr. Bilal using it. Are you saying all this was added by Christians? When was this done?

[onebludz]

study the council of nicea brother ,325 ad..

commisioned by the pagan emperor constantine,

who later adopted christianity, because his empire was quickly swaying to the teachings of jesus (pbuh)

[nicerperson]

Sorry, should have hit reply instead of just posting, here's my question - Ok, so was the bible ok before this nicea, you saying constantine got it changed?

[onebludz]

mostly the new testament, the gospels and life story of Jesus(pbuh)..this was the focus of change, but yes brother, the scripture of old was the closest to the truth ,before deceitful men transformed it, to what we are given to read today..unfortunatly.. do you know about the council of nicea?..or the relationship between barnabas, the diciple of Jesus , and paul(saul) the x cristian slayer?

[nicerperson]

thank you for pointing me to these things, but I looked up council of nicea and see nothing there to say bible was changed, also I know paul and barnabas had an argument and got new helpers, but still stayed friends, what do this have to do with bible corruption? I don't see what you try to tell me. thanks though for taking time.

[onebludz]

i must say its a breath of fresh air to be able to talk to real people with politeness ,as for the council of nicea, you see , depending on who you ask, people will say different things.

if you did look up the council of nicea, the truth is they "selected" certain gospels and rejected others..325 years after the departure of jesus.this is what we read today.

if you looked it up and they did not tell you this, look elsewere. sometimes we have to dig abit deeper for answers.

[nicerperson]

I refrain from making any more comments now so not to go off topic from this video in respect for Eddie and Dr Bilal.

Just realised why Dr Bilal used christian terms Alpha and Omega, he was a christian previously, so would be familiar to him.

I still not found any evidence for selecting gospels at Nicea other than Da Vinci Code fiction or new ager Shirley Maclaine stories, but will keep looking. Thanks again for giving some pointers to look for.

[optimistsRUS]

Hi niceperson,

Based on my understanding (which may not be 100% accurate), the problem was that the Romans were practicing pagan worship and the new religion brought by Jesus was gaining popularity. Not all followers believed Jesus was divine. The Council of Nicea was called by Emperor Constantine to make a merger of the existing beliefs that would be the official religion of the Empire

islamtomorrow[.]com/bible/Nica­eaCouncil325[.]htm

[optimistsRUS]

* Formulation for wording concerning the Trinity based on Anthanias

* Changing and eliminating certain Verses of Bible

* Declaring Arian's "unitarian" (belief in the Unity of God) as heresy

* Changing the day of worship from Saturday to Sunday

* Changing the date of Jesus' birthday to December 25th

* Introduction of Easter (pagan worship called "Feast of Ishtar")

* Church of Roman "officially" became the "Universal Church of the Holy Roman Empire" (the word 'Catholic' means 'universal'

[onebludz]

thank you ,for looking for it, it proves that you are interested in truth and seeking it.

i too used to be a christian, i didnt want to believe any reteric also. it took me a while ,and alot of research and prayer, to find out what i did. its not christian hatred , to beleive in something other than, the nativity,the crucifiction of jesus, or any other issues that arrise..these are difficult times, we are not encouraged to think to much outside the box, but brother i ask you to..

[optimistsRUS]

The word Trinity is not in the Bible (fact), the idea of Trinity is not in the Bible, the Christians used some verses to (wrongly) claim that Trinity is the only way to explain Jesus. Adam is also called son of God, people of Israel are also sons of God, but not literally!

The Old Testament and New Testament is clear about the oneness of God, but this idea was rejected at the Council of Nicea in 325 CE.

God (or Gods)?

"How Did 1 - Become 3?"

[eurosoul]

Please make your comment neutral as possible and take in consideration that this may hurt some christians.

so,lets be good to them and all other religions and let's ignore any insult without replying.

Peace,brother.

[nicerperson]

Dr. Bilal says "God is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end" This is what the bible says about Jesus in Rev. 22:13. Is Dr. Bilal claiming that Jesus is God?

John 8:56: "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day... Before Abraham was, I am" which also claims pre-existence.

So either the Bible teaches that Jesus was pre-existent and so was in the beginning with God and was God (John 1) or obviously the scriptures were corrupted by Christians to say this, what do you think?

[kareemabdullah]

no, bilal isn't talking about jesus, he is talking about ALLAH. And the bible was corrupted by christians and pagans

[ThePoetAnon]

The bible was corrupted? Are we not suppose to read the Bible as Muslims? Is not the Torah, The Bible, and the Q'uran all an entity of their own that are to be read along one another? I am a Muslim, I believe in Allah, and that Muhammad was the prophet of God. Is not Jesus a prophet? Elisha? Moses? Even John the Baptist? Are they not all the prophets?

[yaserkhan]

peace niceperson

in fact dr. bilal's is using translations of words god uses in the quran to describe himself

(057:003)

He is the Alpha and the Omega. He is the Outermost and the Innermost. He is fully aware of all things.

[nicerperson]

thank you yaserkhan, that is very interesting, could you give me the surah and verse so I can look it up

[nicerperson]

I realised that 057:003 is surah and verse, i thought it was time stamp of video you wanted me to look at at. Is this surah written in Arabic in quran, if so, why translate from Arabic to Greek (Alpha and Omega) like in new testament instead of just saying "first and last" in English? confused me, because Alpha and Omega are names of Jesus in revelation and Jehovah in Old Testament.

[yaserkhan]

in fact, all the standard english translations of the qur'an do translate it as "First and Last". i had to browse through 20 to find one that translated as "Alpha and Omega". however, since this expression has been imported into english and it has a well defined meaning i believe it is perfectly legitimate translation. also the original words in the bible would have been in aramaic or hebrew which were at some point translated into greek. the greek text itself is a translation.
