Seriously .. why dont muslims answer te questions as per the qua ran or a muslim perspective .. almost always muslms answers are Well thers somethin on the same lines in the bibles .. that dosent answer the question muslims .... always escape

well.....why would any sunni muslim have a shia as his partner in a debate? Who is this guy to speak on islam. He does not even have a proper sunnah beard and prances around in christian clothing. Although i am not a muslim, I respect those who walk the walk and talk the talk. This guy Andalusi is a wannabee and gets a high off thinking he is some sort of scholar. He probably likes his scotch whiskey on the rocks as well.

your pride. in the end of the world when jesus comes back to raise the dead you cannot go up to him and say you were good enough because we all fell short of his glory. our eternal life depends on this decision and mohammed, buddah, allah, judaism, islam, and calling yourself a christian cant save you. the only way we are saved is by having a personal relation ship with jesus christ and confessing he is your lord and savior and repenting of your sins to him, and baptize of water in the name of

he died for your sins and mine and the whole world that we can be saved through him. he lived a perfect life and not mohammed. god said we all fell short of his glory so how can we be saved by just joining islam and praying 5 times a day and visiting mecca and submit to allah when god in the bible he said he has a son. so allah and the god os israel is not the same. god made this world through his word which is jesus christ and the word was made flesh. so my friends come to the truth and swallow

jesus is definately talking about the holy spirit which came to them while paul was preaching the gospel to those 3 thousand believers on the day of pentecost and spoke words that was not of their own. jesus said "i am the way the truth and the life and no one comes to the father but by me." mohammed never said jesus is the way so he did not testify of jesus christ. the holy ghost did through paul, peter, matthew, mark, luke, john. so come to know jesus, pray to him because he is worthy

and when jesus talks to his diciples he talks about the comforter dwelling in them and the spirit of truth which they already knew because jesus told them he is with you. right there he is simply not talking about mohammed because mohammed is not god or a spirit so whoever jesus was talking about had a quality of god being omnipresent. mohammed is not omnipresent so we can conclude that jesus was talking about the holy spirit. the diciples never met mohammed so that refutes him being prophesied

[deep7100]

listen to yourselves, i know alot of you are muslims and you will take his side but truth of the matter is that the god of israel is not allah. you guys like to pick n choose from the bible, verses that might support the quran, but when it comes to verses that completely contradicts the quran you guys say its a corrupted and or were reading it out of context. the bible is not corrupted and it does not talk about mohammed being the comforter because the comforter is a spirit not a prophet.
