Who is Jesus Christ? In the light of the Bible and the Qur'an ( 4 of 8 )

Is Jesus Christ God or just a prophet?

Did He ever claim to be God?

What do the ancient texts tell us?

What do Muslims believe about Jesus? Is he a prophet or more than a prophet?

Representing the Muslim perspective was Brother Ahmed Hamed: Brother Ahmed is a young scholar on Islam and comparative religion.

He spoke about the similarities between both religions and clarified the perceived differences among religious scholars in light of the Qur'an, Gospels and Torah.

Representing the Christian side was Pastor Thabiti Anyabwile: Thabiti M. Anyabwile is senior pastor of First Baptist Church of Grand Cayman in the Cayman Islands.

He was previously an assistant pastor at Capitol Hill Baptist Church (Washington, DC) and served as an elder at Church on the Rock (Raleigh, NC).

Thabiti has a strong professional and academic background in community psychology, with special interest in the history and development of the African American church.

He holds B.A. and M.S. degrees in psychology from North Carolina State University. He and his wife, Kristie, have two daughters.

masha allah...may allah arise more and more daaees like this as a warning to christians...

@bonespow Deedat has been broken for years. It is only unlearned muslims that still think he was great at debates. But deedat never really debated top Christians scholars. Just lay pastors etc. Muslims scholars admit Deedat was a joke... He was just a showman. Like Zakir Naik and Deedats student.

Dr. James White debated a student of dedate and White embrassed him. I was there...

[MBI3030]

@vmprophet just because deedat quoted a verse does not mean he understood the context. I was once a deedat fan when I was a muslim.

In fact, it was his arguements I used against Christians becuase I thought he was right. But now I see.....

[MBI3030]

@mohdjamlimustafa yes deedat is wrong on every twist and turn. He lsot in a dedate in 1982 to Josh Mcdowell...

[vmprophet]

@MBI3030 Oh I sw. Its funny how "Context" is key to understanding scripture when it comes to the Bible, but when Muslims correct people who just take things out of the Quran and tell them hey you actually need to read the entire thing it gives it "Context", people think Muslims are just covering things up. Listen I agree with you that context is VERY important when it comes to scripture, I urge you to watch deedat and how he uses verse in context to prove his point, and he trust me he does

[MBI3030]

the sad thing, this muslim thinks he is right..... SAD SAD SAD....

[MBI3030]

@vmprophet deedat was wrong on every turn. He has been proven wrong a number of times. Muslims just can't see.... Context is key to understanding the Scripture.

The guy in the video, this muslim has no idea what is he is talking about...

[mohdjamlimustafa]

@jiali24 Deedat was never refuted by any christian scholar.They do not have enough knowledge of the Quran and the bible to do so.He sound like Deedat because he is one of his students . Is it wrong? It is the legacy of Deedat

[jiali24]

lol wat a joke. one day e truth will dawn on you.

[vmprophet]

LOOL Deedat refuted. If deedat was refuted that would mean the bible is wrong because all deedat ever did was quote the bible to prove his point. which biblical verse has been refuted that deedat used? thats the problem that he created for christians. He used the bible its self to say what jesus said its just that people didnt like it, does that mean deedat was wrong? nope, just means you dont like what the bible says.
