JESUS is GOD?

[Ignatius]

Where i am going is i hope you can teach me a little suntin here. JESUS is GOD. We are all in agreement. . . . . If so, wouldn’t that make Isa equivalent to Allah?
Ignatius;13006245:

No, read the accounts of Isa. Isa is not Jesus. Fr. Mitch Pachwa gave a description of the differences to a caller on either an EWTN Open Line or Catholic Answers Live radio call in. The podcasts and possibly YouTube are available on line if you want to do a search for them.

Not sure if this is the one, but it has some relevant information:

Here is another one on a different subject that you may find very interesting:

Were you able to see the difference from the videos?

If you would like to learn more about the teachings of Jesus Christ, please contact the folks at chnetwork.org/. I promise, if you unite yourself to Jesus Christ through His Church, you will experience the great gift the He has promised to those who follow Him. As Jesus said, “He who eats My body and drinks My blood lives in Me and I in him and I will raise him up on the last day.” And He is faithful and sure to keep His promises. Repent, turn to the Gospel and be saved and you will have everlasting life.

Grace and peace be with you.

Your servant in Christ.

Where i am going is i hope you can teach me a little suntin here. JESUS is GOD. We are all in agreement. I had asked if GOD and Allah are the same, as some call GOD Allah. That was split right down the middle. So is the Eastern view of JESUS the same name as Isa to some? If so, wouldn’t that make Isa equivalent to Allah?

Allah is GOD. Isa is NOT Jesus.

Allah is an Arabic word, it was in use as the name for GOD in Arabic hundreds of years before Mahoma and islam as a religion were born.

It derives from the word Elohim.

Now Isa, clearly islam teaches a false Jesus, either that or we teach a false Jesus. The question then is:
Which came first? As a sequel.
How confident are we in our account of Jesus?

According to the Quran, Jesus, although appearing to have been crucified, was not killed by crucifixion or by any other means; instead, “God raised him unto Himself”. In the 19th Sura of the Quran (in verses 15 and 33), Jesus is blessed on “the day he was born and the day he will die and the day he is raised alive”, which clearly declares that Jesus will experience a natural death, and will be raised again on the day of judgment.

Like all prophets in Islam, Jesus is considered a Muslim (i.e., one who submits to the will of God), as he preached that his followers should adopt the “straight path” as commanded by God. Traditionally, Islam teaches the rejection of the Trinitarian Christian view that Jesus was God incarnate or the son of God. The Quran says that Jesus himself never claimed to be the Son of God, and it furthermore indicates that Jesus will deny having ever claimed divinity at the Last Judgment, and God will vindicate him.[5] Islamic texts forbid the association of partners with God (shirk), emphasizing a strict notion of monotheism (tawhīd).

Numerous titles are given to Jesus in the Quran and in Islamic literature, the most common being al-Masīḥ (“the Messiah”). Jesus is also, at times, called “Seal of the Israelite Prophets”, because, in general Muslim belief, Jesus was the last prophet sent by God to guide the Children of Israel. Jesus is traditionally understood in Islam to have been a precursor to Muhammad, and is believed by Muslims to have foretold the latter’s coming; however, according to Muslim scholars this prophecy is in the Chapter Al-Saff verse six.[6]

Jesus is unique for being the only prophet in Islam who neither married nor had any children.[7] Muslims believe that Jesus will return to earth near the Day of Judgment to restore justice and to defeat al-Masih ad-Dajjal (“the false messiah”, also known as the Antichrist).[8][9] Jesus will not return as a new prophet; Muhammad was the final prophet, but will continue from where he left off at the time of his ascension.[10]
