The Claims of Christ in Light of Islamic Monotheism--part 2

[cymbeli]

This is a strong point. Borichumba completely distorts this concept with her video trying to compare nuns with muslim women. The dress of a nun is representative of their commitment to the church as Christ defines his marriage to the church so they have chosen to do so as well. There is a huge misunderstanding to not only muslim men but women as well about this idea. God bless and thank you for these videos.

theheat, read ephesians 5:25-33 and 2 corinthians 11:2-3. He does marry the Church.

[EncompassedRunner]

Amen, I mentioned that to heat before myself so maybe if more people tell him he might reconsider. Question: @ 7:23 you cite Quran 9:30 saying Jews say Ezra is the son of Allah -- my question is where does this Islamic idea come from?

[shamounian]

It comes from Muhammad's own imagination. He needed a pretext to incite Muslims to fight the Jews and so he made up this charge against them.

Good work.... Keep it up!!

[OohTheHorror]

is there a part1??

[IslamicDilemma]

Yes, there is. I am in the process of re-uploading it. There are also more parts to this lecture after part 4, so stay posted. I will have them all up next week, God-willing.

[KinsmenRedeemed]

Jesus died on the cross. Its a fact. Jesus arose from the grave. Its a fact. Hes coming back again. Its a fact. Jesus is Lord. Its a fact.

Peace

Christ's marriage is with New Jerusalem and not the Church(Revelation 21:2, 9-11).

Shalom

[cclorance]

I would suggest that the New Jerusalem is a way of describing the glorified Church.

[theheat151]

Can you elaborate with Scripture?

[cclorance]

The Pauline passages cited by Shamounian are helpful in establishing bride/groom language as a part of the early church's understanding of their relationship to Christ. Also, note Rev. 19:7-8. Rev. 21 sounds to me like a beautiful, apocalyptic-styled metaphor of the glorified Church (people of God). I'm just recommending further reflection on the passage with this idea in mind.

Allah is NOT The Almighty!

Allah is mentioned in the book of the Revelation as the mark of the beast! The language written there is translated as ALLAH ! ! !

Amen brother...
