  • other christian brohters and sister should get an advice from it . and should embrace islam

  • Dr. Jerald Dirks has a masters degree in divinity of university of harvard. I think before you call him a heretic, you should review his points - he is right.

    1) Jesus is not divine, i.e. not God or part of God.

    2) Crucifixion is a myth, with no actual proof

    3) The contemporary Christian dogma is based of a man, who was a jew, an enemy of Jesus' message, and who has never seen or spoken to Jesus (peace be upon him)

  • from jesus to terrorist gangster muhammad

  • @MrJustinjj its how u interpret the bible

  • @jaga454. Have you researched so little that you think that Christianity's claim to the divine nature of Jesus is based upon one verse? Just as today, we base character traits more upon what people do, and not solely on what they say. Jesus healed the sick, gave sight to the blind, and raised people from the dead. Unlike the historical inaccuracies in the Koran, the bible notes that Jesus himself rose from the dead. You should check your Hadith. Muhummad believed the bible was in tact.

  • @jaga454 One in purpose. Not literally!!

  • 2) Paul wrote the book of Acts. This is FALSE. Luke wrote the book of ACTS.

    3) Paul was not accepted by the original Apostles (proof text Acts 9:26) This is when I lost all credibility for this guy. I mean, c’mon. They were afraid of him because he had been KILLING the Christians for saying that Jesus had risen from the dead after he had been crucified. Paul converted to Christianity from Judaism and wanted to fellowship with his new brothers. Get some context.

  • Sorry for my short attention span, but just heard too many fallacies to continue to watch. Let me just clarify a couple.

    1) Paul wrote the majority of the New Testament. This is FALSE. There are 27 books and Paul wrote 14. Did I contradict myself? NO! Remember there were no books or chapters or verses in the original. From a number of books standpoint, this is correct.  But, from a content standpoint (number of words), Luke wrote the most content.

  • Peace and love to all Christians, Jews, Muslims and all those who believe in God !

    You are all my family because we believe in God and we are God's creation :)

  • Islam respects all religions. Nevertheless, Muslims consider the view of Christendom to be a misguided one. The Noble Quran highlights the important aspects of Jesus (Peace Be Upon Him) mother, his birth, his mission and his ascension to heaven.

    VIRGIN MARY:

    Story of Jesus (Peace Be Upon Him) in the Noble Quran starts with the conception of his mother, Mary, when the wife of Imran, Marys mother, vowed to dedicate her child to the service of God in the temple.
