Well, Belloc considers him a heretic who took early Christian writings to form a new religion.
exactly, he took the nazaritic teachings and called them islam.
Of course, Jack Chick says he was duped into doing so by the Catholic Church and that his siter in law was an agent of the pope…
loooool.
Anyway, mohammad claimed to hear a “spirit” that brought him “revelations” from allah…this never happened before from God…who can make sure what this spirit said? mohammad alone.
Did anyone else hear this “spirit”? no. This is very unlike the Biblical God and how he interacted with His people.
Did mohamad perform any miracle like the Biblical prophets? no.
Was mohammad prophecized? no.
Does his book come from God? no, since many passages are taken from talmud and apocryphal books and jewish/Christian legends and since many of his teachings are labled blasphemous and sinful by God.
Finally, i believe in a God who keeps His Word. Hence i believe in The Holy Bible…any one who gives a different Gospel, let him be accursed.
