**Paul on Husband and Wife Relations **
Paul exhorts husbands to view their wives as their own bodies:
"Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church - for we are members of his body. ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.’ This is a profound mystery - but I am talking about Christ and the church. However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband. Ephesians 5:25-33
Paul also commands husbands to view their bodies as not belonging to themselves but to their wives and vice-versa, and must not deny the others’ needs:
“Now for the matters you wrote about: It is good for a man not to marry. But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband. The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. The wife’s body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband’s body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife. Do not deprive each other except by MUTUAL consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.” 1 Corinthians 7:1-5

Muhammad on Husband and Wife Relations
“Your wives are as a tilth unto you; so approach your tilth when or how ye will; but do some good act for your souls beforehand; and fear Allah. And know that ye are to meet Him (in the Hereafter), and give (these) good tidings to those who believe.” S. 2:223
Instead of respecting the woman’s refusal to engage in a particular sexual position, Allah sends down the command permitting men to enter women as they like!

The Prophet said in another Hadith,
<I WAS MADE TO LIKE WOMEN AND PERFUME
And the comfort of my eye is the prayer.> 'Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, said, “Nothing was more beloved to the Messenger of Allah THAN WOMEN, except horses,” and in another narration, “…than horses EXCEPT WOMEN.” (Tafsir Ibn Kathir-Abridged Volume 2, parts 3, 4, & 5, Surat Al-Baqarah, Verse 253, to Surat An-Nisa, Verse 147, abridged by a group of scholars under the supervision of Shaykh Safiur Rahman Al-Mubarakpuri [Darussalam Publishers & Distributors, March 2000], p. 124;
“Men are superior to women on account of the qualities which God hath gifted the one above the other, and on account of the outlay they make from their substance for them. Virtuous women are obedient, careful, during the husband’s absence, because God hath of them been careful. But chide those for whose refractoriness ye have cause to fear; remove them into beds apart, AND SCOURGE THEM: but if they are obedient to you then seek not occasion against them: verily, God is High, Great!” S. 4:34

The Caliph 'Amru Bin al-'Aas said:
“Women are toys, so choose.” (Kanz-el-'Ummal, Vol. 21, Hadith No. 919)
Not to mention the temporary marriage called : pleasure marriage and sex with slaves.
 
Paul and Miracles
The NT records that God backed up the message of Paul and the other apostles with supernatural signs and wonders:
“So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who confirmed the message of his grace by enabling them to do miraculous signs and wonders.” Acts 14:3

“I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in leading the Gentiles to obey God by what I have said and done - by the power of signs and miracles, through the power of the Spirit. So from Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.” Romans 15:18-19
"I have made a full of myself, but you drove me to it. I ought to have been commended by you, for I m not least inferior to the ‘super-apostles,’ even though I am nothing. The things that mark an apostle - signs, wonders and miracles - were done among you with great perseverance." 2 Corinthians 12:11-12
**“God did extraordinary miracles through Paul, so that even handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched him were taken to the sick, and their illnesses were cured AND THE EVIL SPIRITS LEFT THEM. ** Some Jews who went around driving out evil spirits tried to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who were demon-possessed. They would say, ‘In the name of Jesus, whom Paul preaches, I command you to come out.’ Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this. [One day] the evil spirit answered them, ‘Jesus I know, and I know about Paul, but who are you?’ Then the man who had the evil spirit jumped on them and overpowered them all. He gave them such a beating that they ran out of the house naked and bleeding. When this became known to the Jews and Greeks living in Ephesus, they were all seized with fear, and the name of the Lord Jesus was held in high honor.” Acts 19:11-16

Muhammad on Miracles :
The Unbelievers say: "Why is not a Sign sent down to him from his Lord?"

Furthermore, unlike Paul, Muhammad had no power over Satan but actually fell under demonic influence and also died as result of poison!:
Narrated Aisha:
Once **the Prophet was bewitched ** so that he began to imagine that he had done a thing which in fact he had not done. (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 53, Number 400)

This brief comparison should convincingly demonstrate muhammad doesn’t even come close in comparing to the beloved Apostle Paul, the risen Lord Jesus’ faithful and righteous servant.

Irrelevant! how come!. Most of what I pointed to has nothing to do with the division between state and church and everything to do with obeying the commands of Jesus.
What the state has to do with dressing modestly?
What the state has to do with alcohol?
What the state has to do with adultery and fornication?
What the state has to do with gambling?
What the state has to do with taking care of the elder parents?
These are very personal things, most of the Christians are either trepassing or not following.

Salaam.

i should have elaborated more on this yesterday but didnt have time…here is my reply: to assume that the Weat is the land of fornication and that islamic countries are a religious Utopia is far from the truth; in the West, they show it and they plainly say : this is my life…hence? freedom of will …Christians are known by their fruit, not by their names. If the image is reverse in muslim countries, it’s because of fear and hypocrisy, but it does not mean that the things you keep mentioning do not happen in muslim countries…far from it…fornication is widespread in them, even in Saudi Arabia…wine trade exists in SA but on a “high” level between princes and rich people; Suaudi men go to Bahrein, Dubai, Lebanon and Europe and you just dont want to know the shamful things they do yet are call “hajj” in SA…Saudi women as well…i’ve seen hundreds of them on holiday, and you really dont want to see how they get dressed or how they behave…Prostitution is widespread in Maghreb, Egypt, Syria, Iran ecc…i wont elaborate more…to say that muslim countries are pure is to be either in denial or wishful thinking…i’ve seen wonders from those “respected Hajj” and veiled women…So it’s a matter of image, not truth.

the point is : we are discussing teachings, not about sinful people…just like there are bad westeners, there are millions as well who are devout Christians…NOT EVERY WESTENER IS A CHRISTIAN…Christianity is a choice…to choose to love God the same way He loves you…when one follows Jesus, virtue becomes easy to achieve and sacrifices become a source of joy…its like when you love someone so deeply that you dont want to hurt him, not even with a word…thats our relationship with Jesus…and what we do is not enough compared with His love.

Aquarius:
What I did note was the fact that people are not even trying to demonstrate that the authors of Luke, Mark, and Matthew considered Jesus to be God.
In the Gospels, there is very little of the authors’ opinions. These are primarily biographical glimpses of the life and teachings of Christ.

Now, they DO sometimes present statements of various people, the Apostles in particular, which demonstrate their beliefs.

For instance, in the book of Acts, Luke (the author of the Gospel) repeats Peter’s statement which unambiguously tells us that Peter believes Jesus is “Lord of All” i.e. God:
Ac 10:34 And Peter opened his mouth and said: "Truly I perceive that God shows no partiality,
35 but in every nation any one who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him.
36 You know the word which he sent to Israel, preaching good news of peace by Jesus Christ (he is Lord of all),

Peace to you, brother Joseph.

I didn’t follow this argument from the beginning, so forgive me if I might miss something.

What actually you were saying is that Christianity is not a practical religion. Its teachings are impractical and therefore unsustainable and cannot be followed in realistic living. To justify that you mentioned the failure of Christians to live up to the teaching of their religion. Sadly this is the opinions of many Muslims that I know of including some who are in this forum. (I don’t visit this forum much nowadays mainly due to scarcity of time but also there is not many new ideas from Muslims which I haven’t heard. I guess you can say that to us too).

Regarding the impracticality of Christianity, I have to say this, brother, that you are completely wrong.

If there are bad Christians, it is to be expected; for the road to righteousness and eternal life is narrow and long. It is the road to destruction and damnation that is wide and easy. When human beings are confronted with these choices, many would choose the easy road and sink into their human wants and instinct. We know it is not easy to follow the teaching of Jesus, exactly for the same reason. But it is NOT impractical! It can be followed. The truth is, there are many good Christians too who experience profound satisfaction and peace in their lives by following closely the value of the Gospel. You only need to go into another part of this forum to listen to their testimonies, including Catholic participants here, I’m sure.

Knowing you as one of those reasonable Muslims here, I think that’s not what you really want to say, bad-mouthing the Christians. I think you are higher than that. I think what you really want is to give it back to Catholics here who equates Islam with the bad Muslims. Point understood, brother Joseph.

Putting the spat aside, there are important issues here to be considered nevertheless. Both the teachings of Mohammad and Jesus are purported to be from God by their respective followers. And yet in very important areas, Mohammad’ and Jesus’ teachings contradict each other.

You are right if you think that Christianity’ teachings are difficult to follow. Why? Because God’s ways are different from human ways. But God does not change His laws to make it easy for humans. Things that are right or wrong with God will never change.

In Mohammad or the Quran rather, we see its laws are made to suit human desire and weaknesses. For example, human natural desire for revenge and dominate is satisfied in your law. You have law that satisfies human sexual urges – go and marry up to 4 wives, it’s alright.

Jesus will never condone those sins and his laws are stipulated accordingly. Of course they are difficult to follow, but God’ grace makes it easy for us if we are really sincere in following them. This is what we call the power of the Holy Spirit that enables Christians to do the things they don’t normally able to do on their own. So you’d see extraordinary holy lives of Christian saints and personalities; lives that are selfless and devotion to God.

I think this is the gist of what Catholics here are trying to put forth. The revelations to Mohammad are so ominously close to human made laws, while the teachings of Jesus are so uncompromising in its moral and spiritual values. Unless Muslims here can come up with better explanation, Mohammad certainly looks like a contradiction to Jesus in many aspects, from ancient prophecies to their respective teachings. He certainly did not fit the norm of a prophet in our eyes. To me from the information available here, he looks more like an uneducated guy, shrewd and smart enough in pushing his way to have followers. His revelations are nothing intellectual and some of them seem rightly plagiarized from Christian heretics of his time. I wish I can believe you about the goodness of Muhammad, but on the whole the picture of him doesn’t paint that way.

From Christians’ view point, the content of his teachings certainly did not come from divine source but more of anti Christ, that is, satanic. I’m not saying this to spite the Muslims but rather I come to this conclusion from Christian theology that’s available to us. Sure, other Christians may have different opinions on this, but until I have other information that I don’t know of about Islam now, I’m afraid my conclusion stands.

God bless.

Reuben.

Joseph_Alison:
Look for him in the Bible. He is there proclaiming faith without works, the opposite of what Jesus taught.

-Did Jesus teach that usury is lawful? If not, why is it that usury is the standard in dealing with money? Usury turned the lives of millions into hell.
-Did Jesus teach that alcohol is allowed? If not, why is it that the killer alcohol is for Christian like water? Alcohol killed many; brook many families, created many family tragedies.
-Did Jesus teach not to dress modestly? If not, why is it that dressing modestly is frowned upon and became shameful thing?
-Did Jesus teach that fornication and adultery are allowed? If not, why is it that those major sins are rampant in Christian societies?
-Did Jesus teach to abandon the parents when they become elderly? If not, why is it that most elder Christians live alone and do not see their offspring but in rare occasions?
-Did Jesus teach that gambling is allowed? If not, why is it that a whole city of vise and gambling is erected on Christian soil and almost everywhere in Christian countries; why it is that casinos are the predilection of millions of Christians?

The message brought by the beloved prophet of Islam (PBUH) forbade usury, forbade alcohol, adultery is severely punished, it enjoined to take care of the parents, placing their care just after the worship of Allah (SWT), it enjoined to dress modestly, it forbade gambling etc.

If I were to write all the wonderful teachings of the mercy to mankind who is the prophet Muhammad (PBUH), books would not suffice. Study, then comeback and call me whatever you want if you will find I am not telling the truth.

Jesus and Muhammad (peace be upon them both) could not be the opposite of each other, they were both messenger from the Almighty God, Jesus (PBUH) to the Children of Israel and Muhammad (PBUH) to mankind.
Muhammad (PBUH) left nothing which draws us closer to hell but he warned us against it and left nothing which draws us closer to paradise but told us about it. He completed his message in the most perfect manner. Study my friend and you will have your own idea about the man if you want to. Do you feel Jesus gave you all you need? The result for you would be a content life full of happiness.
The Paraclete is Muhammad (PBIUH) and not the Holy Spirit as it is explained.

Salaam.
Joseph.
Forced virtue is not virtue! Muslims are kept in line because of the severe punishments inflicted on them. Your whole lives are regimented and you can’t even think for yourselves. Everything has to be done the Islamic way! Even wiping yourselves after going to the bathroom has to be done the Islamic way. Sheer lunacy! Whatever happened to free will? God did not create robots but that is what Muslims become after being brainwashed and indoctrinated into the ways of the most tyrannical “cult” this world has ever seen.

To claim that Mohammed is the paraclete is sheer nonsense! Why did Jesus tell the apostles to remain in the city to wait for the Paraclete if he was going to send him 600 years later? He mentioned that he was sending a spirit, not a person.

It’s funny how you claim the bible is corrupted and yet twist its meaning in accord with what Muslims want it to mean. Yet when we ask Muslims a simple question like who did Jesus mean when the talked about his father in heaven, Muslims say they don’t even consider it! Talk about sheer arrogance! Are you really interested in the truth, or in just pushing your agenda?

Aquarius:
The most you can say is that Thomas thought Jesus was “My lord and my God.” That doesn’t make the case that the authors themselves thought Jesus was God. Why so much concentration on John at the expense of the other three? If John is the best case, the other three fail badly.
My point in citing the “doubting Thomas” passage (Jn 20:18-31) was to show how Thomas knelt and worshipped Jesus as “My Lord and My God.” CLEARLY this is EXACTLY what John is trying to impart - that Jesus is Lord AND God. It does not get more clear than Thomas’s exclamation - Jesus is understood by John to be our Lord and God.

Aquarius says NOTHING that squares this passage with his misunderstanding of the NT. Jesus’s divinity is clearly articulated in the “doubting Thomas” passage - and Jesus’s divinity is clearly what John is intending to teach and reinforce within those of us who have “not seen” but have “believed.” Believed what? That Jesus is our Lord AND our God.

-Peace.
 
The Qu’ran (as well as the O.T.) clearly acknowledges (I forget what Suras and what O.T. book) the prerequisite of miracle-performing placed on true prophets. Mohammed also rebukes someone in a certain instant for asking for proof (by miracle) for his self-claimed prophetic gift. He tells this individual that he can’t perform miracles, unlike either Moses or Abraham (can’t quite recall)…true prophets. There so many contridictions between Qu’ran and O.T. teaching (which Islam supposedly embraces) and even between Qu’ran and Qu’ran itself. As for the original concern,
if this hasn’t been mentioned in the numerous prior posts, then allow me to leave you with 3 final words when researching the issue of divinity of Christ (other than “Father, Son, and Holy Spirit”)…Saint Thomas Aquinas.

"Fight against those to whom the Scriptures were given as believe in neither God nor the last day, who do not forbid what God and his messenger have forbidden, and who do not embrace the true faith, until they pay tribute out of hand and are utterly subdued" (Surah 9:29)
 
This topic has quickly morphed into a debate of whether or not Jesus is God. There have been numerous scripture quotes, philosophical points, etc. to discuss this matter on both sides. Overall what I have generally seen is the convenient stance our Muslim bros. (and sisters if applicable) have taken. What I mean is that every Christian who has posted here has had to try to prove to the Muslim posters that Jesus is God. Where is the proof that He is not God? I (or anyone else here) can take every ounce of Sacred Scripture…every prophecy fulfilled, every quote, every context meaning and show evidence of the Biblical belief in: 1. the existance of the Holy Trinity and 2. the fact that Christ is God. From here, it takes no logic, no brain power whatsoever to put personal agenda-driven spin on every one of these proofs…whether scriptural or not. Anyone can take Scripture and twist it…calling the meaning behind it into question. Once again, it takes no brilliance to play “devil’s advocate” here. My challenge is for the Muslims here to prove that Jesus was not God. Prove using any available tool that the Qu’ran is the perfect, inspired word of God and that Jesus was merely a prophet. By the way, why does Islam even regard Christ as a prophet? If He is not God, as He taught us, then He was a blasphemer…not exactly prerequisite for a prophetical appointment from above! One last question: Mohammed is believed by Islam to be the Messiah…the greatest prophet of all. Wasn’t the individual that was supposed to fill this role prophesized to be born of a virgin? This may have already been touched upon…just asking.
God bless you all

All three of these passages jesus was asked if he was the son of god and he replied “I AM”. This was when he was on trial to be crucified, they saw this as blasphemy and immediately found him guilty. My question is if jesus did not say he was the son of god then why did the jews and romans want to crucify him, its a simple question?

I was going to start a new thread when I realized it was already here. Unfortunately, the question still has not been answered.

This scripture from the Bible has Jesus himself calling Himself “I Am” This of course is a declaration of calling Himself God. When Moses was told to go and free God’s people, Moses asked God what His name was and God said “I AM”. This was very clear at the time since after Jesus said this, no more testimony was needed to convict Him.

Does Islam not believe that Jesus said this?

What exactly did Jesus say according to Islam?

If Jesus did say it, how can He be considered anything but a false prophet by Islam?

I still do not understand?

srp643:
Jesus was and is truly the Son of God. I often read about Muslims referring to Him as a “prophet”. I’m curious how and when this description of Jesus was established in Islam and what they believe He actually “prophesied”. Ostensibly Jesus was “great” enough to be awarded some level of distinction but not great enough to be seen as divine despite His fulfilling of the Old Testament, the Bible having been established, numerous writings from the early Fathers, etc. Can someone help me with understanding who in Islam determined this, what was the process of demoting Jesus to “prophet” status and what criteria were used? It appears certain parts of the Bible (e.g. Abraham, virginity of Mary) are viewed as Truth in Islam but most parts are deemed invalid.
The best way to understand Islam is to look at their history, their foundations. According to Oxford Catholic historian Hillaire Belloc (my favorite) in his book, The Great Heresies, he explained that at the time of the founding of Islam, many of the nomadic tribes of that area held to monotheistic beliefs of one type or another, but they lacked cohesion, and were quite disparate in many aspects.

Muhammed came along and almagamated some of the better parts of these beliefs, and some of his favorite aspects of Catholicism into one religion, which he evangelized with great fervor. In doing so, Jesus had to be given a place of honor, but could not be equated with God.

Now, I am greatly oversimplifying what Belloc said for the sake of brevity, and to be honest, it’s been about 10 years since I read the book, but I think I got the basics of his assertions. I highly recommend you read it. I am sure it is available in your parish library, or you can purchase a copy for yourself from a reputable bookseller.

I hope that helps.
 
George Waters:
May I once again suggest you read about the concept of the Trinity before you slander our faith? Your post demonstrates your utter ignorance of the concept. As I have suggested to you in another thread weeks ago to read about the concept, this post shows your lack of willingness to even attempt to learn about it.

I will ask you more questions though like the others I have addressed to you I doubt you will answer them.

Islam teaches that Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary, correct? Jesus did not have a human father, correct? The spirit of God overshadowed Mary so that she would conceive a son, correct?

So, if this is the case than in the limited language of humans it would be said Jesus is the Son of God. Not really that hard to understand is it?

secondboy said:

sure.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
In John 8:58, Jesus declared, “before Abraham was, I am.”
Likewise, in his prayer for his disciples and those who would later believe in him through their message, Jesus asks his Father to glorify him “with the glory which I had with Thee before the world was” and reminds the Father that “Thou loved me before the foundation of the world.” John 17: 5, 24.
“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.” Revelation 1: 8, 11 & 22:13.

“I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” Matthew 28:20.
and you are insulting again.don’t repeat this because these insultings destroy the face of christianity for non_christians.this is best for yourself.
am not insulting…would you tell me whatwould have happened if mohammmad said that Jesus said NO to polygamy, NO to killing, NOto eye for eye, NO for easy divorce, NO for sex with slaves? would mohammad still have the guts to say he confirms Jesus’ teachings? a simple question for you.

Why does Islam consider Jesus a prophet when Jesus Himself claimed to be God?
