If being ‘Christian’ means someone who faithfully follows the teachings of Jesus Christ (pbuh), then this would mean that all Christians should become Muslims because Muslims are the best Christians in the world.

As to how Muslims follow Prophet Jesus (pbuh), kindly refer to this thread of which the following are the relevant posts:

1, 2, 4, 5, 60, 76, 101, 129, 153, 154

A ‘Muslim’ is someone who submits to the will of Allah, just like Prophet Jesus (pbuh) did and therefore, why should Muslims become Christians → Do Christians make the best Muslims in the world??

Since when is killing those who disagree with you Christian–something that happens in Mahometan countries all the time?

Isa akbar!

ISA AKBAR!

I bear witness there is NO GOD but Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and Jesus is God Incarnate risen from the dead.**
 
Aside from fundementalist muslims, led by corrupt imams, the question I have is why bother being a muslim?
We have nothing to gain, and everything to loose by doing so.
We pray not just at set hours on Friday, but everyday anytime.
We fast, we give alms, we also believe in visiting holy sites if one can or is able.

So why? Why on earth would anyone want to be muslim?

Why should I become a Muslim
because Muslims worship the Creator & don’t believe creation is equal to Creator. That’s the main condition to go to heaven according
to all major holy books.

Islam is the chosen religion of God. Rejecting Islam means you are rejecting the final command of God Almighty. ooopps so scary .
 
I do not have a problem agreeing with this… but how would this definition disqualify Jesus Christ (peace be upon him) from being a Muslim?
 
Let’s span the topic of why should I become a Muslim, or why should I become a Catholic Christian. I will telll you why you should be a Christian.

When Muslim Woman can answer my post stating this:

Maybe there is more, I am somehow missing.
 
There seems to be no choice if we want to go to the Father.

Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Did I answer the OP question? 😉

**But the Logos, who was made man and known as Jesus, IS the Creator.

The Coran is not a holy book. It was composed by Mahomet, a known pedophile, who was deceived by an inferior demon claiming to be the Angel Gabriel.

Mahometanism HAS no holy books, as holiness needs TRUTH in order to flourish.

Error has no rights.

Because Jesus Christ existed prior to Islam and Muhammad, so it is an impossibility. I know this is not the Muslim view, but this is the non-religious, linear historical view.

Whether or not His message conforms to what would come ~600 years after Him under the name “Islam” is a matter of perspective, but the linear progression of time is not. We do not ask why Jesus Christ could not be considered a Baha’i or why Plato could not be considered a Mormon. These are all anachronistic pairings. So it is with Jesus and Islam.

Islam is the only religion that I know of that does this. Christians do not say that Jesus was anything other than Jewish, and of course neither Jews nor Christians claim that Abraham was anything other than Jewish. We allow every religion to have their own central figures. Islam claims many of these for itself and then says that we are wrong, and that we are the ones who are making things up. It makes no sense. How are we supposed to discuss anything with you in any serious manner when we can’t even agree that something has to exist before it can be said to have existed? This is a fundamental concept of logic and language.

Or do you believe that with regard to Islam all dates are somehow concurrent (since Islam exists outside time, to some people), so that Jesus is a Muslim at His birth in circa 2 B.C. and Muhammad is also a Muslim sometime after his birth circa 570 A.D., when he begins to receive his revelations? Because I have heard of no time when Muhammad went about proclaiming himself a Muslim prior to his receiving revelations, so if Muhammad didn’t do so in the first 40 years of his life because there was no context in which to proclaim his “Muslim-ness”, I don’t know why Jesus would have done so any point during his time on earth rougly 600 years earlier, especially since He was so busy doing important things like delivering mankind from sin and stuff. 😉

If Jesus was a Muslim, then the Qur’an is of no special significance, since it and everything that goes along with it (Islam and all of its precepts) is apparently not needed in order to “be a Muslim” (in fact, “being a Muslim” ceases to have any real meaning in this hypothetical situation, since there is no defining point in history where Islam can be said to have not existed). If Jesus wasn’t a Muslim, then the Qur’an is of no special significance.

Either way…it just doesn’t make any sense.
 
The first reason why you should be a Chrisitan or a Catholic Christian is…you don’t want to call God a liar!.

Testimony Concerning the Son of God

This is he who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ; not by the water only but by the water and the blood. And the Spirit is the one who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. For there are three that testify: the Spirit and the water and the blood; and these three agree. If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater, for this is the testimony of God that he has borne concerning his Son. Whoever believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. Whoever does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has borne concerning his Son. And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.

Reason 1 - You should be a Christian because you don’t want to call God a liar.

And yet Allah swore oaths on creation, including Muhammed, thus making Himself subject to creation, and Muhammed himself.

Rejecting Islam means you reject an Arab-centric system of political and social control, along with a form of gnosticism.
 
… If Jesus was a Muslim, then the Qur’an is of no special significance, since it and everything that goes along with it (Islam and all of its precepts) is apparently not needed in order to “be a Muslim” (in fact, “being a Muslim” ceases to have any real meaning in this hypothetical situation, since there is no defining point in history where Islam can be said to have not existed). If Jesus wasn’t a Muslim, then the Qur’an is of no special significance.

Either way…it just doesn’t make any sense.
"Then we inspired you (O Muhammad) to follow the religion of Abraham, monotheism; never was he an idol-worshiper." … [16:123]

There is only One God who created one race of human beings, and communicated to them one message: submission to the will of God—known in Arabic as Islam. That message was conveyed to the first human beings on this earth, and reaffirmed by all of the prophets of God who came after them, down through the ages.

In the years after they were sent by God to their respective people, the Message that the Prophets taught gradually became lost and eventually the people went back to wrong and abhorrent practices such as idol-worship and associating partners with their Creator.

It is therefore no surprise then that at the time of Muhammad (pbuh), the pagan Arabs were worshiping idols in the Ka’ba, despite them being the likely descendants of Abraham (pbuh) through his son, Ishmael (pbuh).

The essence of the message of Islam is that humankind should worship only One God by obeying His commandments, and should avoid worshiping God’s creation in any way, shape or form.

Jesus Christ, born of the Virgin Mary, performed miracles and invited the Israelites to the same message of submission (Islam), as did all of the prophets who preceded him. He was not God, nor was he the ‘Son of God’, but was the Messiah, an illustrious prophet of God. Jesus did not invite people to worship himself; rather, he called them to worship God, and he himself worshiped God. He confirmed the laws of the Torah which Prophet Moses taught; he lived by them, and instructed his disciples to follow them to the finest detail. Before his departure, he informed his followers of the last prophet, Muhammad of Arabia (pbuh), who would come after him, and instructed them to observe his teachings.

In the generations after Jesus’ departure from this world, his teachings were distorted and he was elevated to the status of God. Six centuries later, with the coming of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), the truth about Jesus Christ was finally retold and preserved eternally in the last book of divine revelation, the Qur’an. Furthermore, the laws of Moses, which Jesus followed, were revived in their pure and unadulterated form, and implemented in the divinely prescribed way of life known as Islam.

Consequently, the reality of the prophets, their uniform message, and the way of life which they followed, can only be found preserved in the religion of Islam, the only religion prescribed by God for man. Furthermore, only Muslims today actually follow Jesus and his true teachings. Their way of life is much more in tune with the way of life of Jesus than any of the modern day “Christians”. Love and respect of Jesus Christ is an article of faith in Islam. Allah stressed the importance of belief in Jesus in numerous places in the Qur’an. For example, in Chapter an-Nisaa (4):159, He said:

} وَ إِنْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ إِلاَّ لَيُؤْمِنَنَّ بِهِ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَكُونُ عَلَيْهِمْ شَهِيدًا {

“And all of the people of the scripture must believe in him [Jesus] before his death, and on the Day of Resurrection, he will be a witness against them,”

Furthermore, when one looks at what Jesus (pbuh) says in the Bible…

"I was sent ONLY to the lost sheep of Israel" … (Matthew 15:24)

… then it makes a whole lot of sense why God would send a Final Messenger as a Mercy for ALL of humankind.
 
Amen.

hamba2han, was Allah a Muslim before he created the world?
 
You must become Muslims because :

-Christians believe in 3 gods as per Muhammad. Nevermind that Muslims believe the Quran is eternal and uncreated, it isn’t important for salvation if they believe in it.
  • Allah does not preserve his words, he took it seriously only after Muhammad so follow only his book even if it has apocrypha, myths and legends and gnostic teachings. All these were from Allah.
-Christianity does not have “laws”. Islam regulates what you eat, what you drink, how you sleep,how you wash yourself, what to inherit,how to pray… all dictated.

-The Quran is miraculous. Pray about it and you’ll realize it and it isn’t important why Jesus is born without a biological father or what happened to the crucifixion, after all, it’s about Muhammad, not the Messiah as per the corrupt OT and NT.

-You can marry up to 4 in addition to what your right hand posseses. It’s easy to divorce and marry and divorce and marry. Temporary and misyar marriages are an extra bonus. Heaven on earth, isn’t it? you must be practical after all.
  • Allah swore by Muhammad and he is the best of creation to immitate. Read his biography, you’ll realize Isa (the Islamic Jesus) isn’t the best model.
 
… then it makes a whole lot of sense why God would send a Final Messenger as a Mercy for ALL of humankind.
indeed OP, add to it that Muhammad says he brings a book in Arabic so that his folks can understand because humanity are Arabs, and please give a blind eye to the fact that the apostles established churches in gentile lands, after all, they got it wrong, but Muslims got it right because Muhammad says Jesus was only sent to the Jews, and forget that muhammad used the word “humanity”, that must have been a slip of the tongue, and please forget what the OT says about the Messianic covenant because Jews and Christians sat together and corrupted it.
