Ezek 33:7 I have made you a watchman...therefore you shall hear a word from My mouth and warn them for Me.

Are the Christian God and Allah the Muslim God the same? Let's look to their Scriptures for the answer

 


Islam is touted as being a peaceful religion.  "Only the fanatics go around killing people," they say.  The god of Muslims, Allah, is also endorsed as being the same god as the Christian God.  "We must tolerate everyone's path to heaven," they say.  But that is not the case, as I will show clearly. After I talk about their founder, Muhammad, I will compare their god with Our God—and ask you:  Which is worthy of worship?

 

Let’s start with the life of Muhammad, the one who brought us the Muslim religion.  He was born in 570 AD.  Orphaned as a small child, he lived mostly with his uncle.  As an adult, he had physical disorders, and spent much time alone.  At age 40, the angel “Gabreel” visited him and dictated the Quran, he believed, so he began proselytizing.  Believing Middle Easterners considered him the last of God’s prophets.  Followers recorded his statements, called the Hadiths.  The Hadiths were the basis for sharia law.  He became involved in bloody military campaigns, by which he unified the Saudi peninsula and converted people to Islam, all at the point of the sword.  He died, presumably, in 632 AD.

 

That’s the bland treatment.  Now let’s get to the real facts.  Muhammad was born four years after his named father died, which means somebody is lying about who is his father.  But this birth actually happened, Muslim “scholars” say, because the time of pregnancy can be six months to five years.  Sure.  This is what they do to make his birth legitimate. Muhammad’s named parents were idol-worshipers.  When Muhammad was in his mother’s womb, she says that “light came out of me.”  Muhammad said he asked Allah, the name of his god, to forgive his mother (presumably for her idolatry and fornication), when she died. But he says Allah told him He refused.  So Muhammad asserted that his mother is in hell. The real problem with her was, she didn’t believe in him as prophet of a true religion.  Actually, Muhammad did not prophesy a single future event, so he was not really a prophet. 

 

 The Quran, which was supposedly dictated from the angel Gabreel, is filled with errors and hatred. We will focus on it. The Hadiths, Muhammad's statements, had even more egregious errors, as we will show a bit in the few that we use.  Muslims have a process called "nullification," whereby their two sacred scriptures named above, if they are contradictory, it was decided to accept the most recent version--and change the other.  Quite a convenience for "sacred" scripture.

 

Muhammad had epileptic fits beginning at age five.  He later was a shepherd and merchant.  He had at least 13 wives and numerous concubines--though the Quran tries to “limit” the proper wife count for a man to four total (it doesn’t limit concubines, by the way).  The purpose of one of his marriages was for her to watch over his third and favorite wife, Aisha, whom he married when she was six years old! He was 51 at the time of that marriage!

 

Thus, Muhammad was a pedophile, a child molester.  Muslim scholars say, he did not penetrate her until she was nine, so he was “self-controlled”--but still a pedophile.  Muslims also say that Saudi Arabia, with high climatic temperatures, mature girls at an earlier age, so Aisha didn't really think like a nine-year-old.  Right.  Actually, though, the Quran backs up early marriage.  In sura 65:4, to determine if a girl or woman is pregnant, (to determine if she has stopped menstruation), scripture says “…if you doubt, the prescribed waiting time is three months, as well as for those who have not yet begun menstruation.”  So the Quran permitted marriage and pregnancy for child brides.  Muhammad also married his son’s wife after their divorce.  For yet another wife, Muhammad killed her father, brother, and Jewish husband.  Then he took her as wife and had sex with her the same night after he murdered her family!

 

Muhammad repeatedly committed the sin of adultery with Mary, a Coptic woman (a sect of Christianity).  In all reality, since he was considered a great prophet, the Quran gave him a total pass on his adultery.  In sura 33:50: “A believing woman (which she wasn't), if she gives herself to the prophet, if the prophet desires to have sex with her, this is a "privilege" (for her)…that there be no shame on your part (ed., the woman's part.)  And Allah was forgiving, merciful.”  Thus, she can be single or married, it didn’t matter, if you had sex with a great prophet like the lustful Muhammad, you're supposed to appreciate it and not feel any guilt.

 

Keep in mind that Muslim scholars, who insisted in their later English “translations” (or “re-translations”) of the Quran, that in his lust for single women, they modified the wording to presume his marriage to them came first.  Don’t believe them.

 

Another interesting case was how Muhammad proved his prophethood, when he was “visited” by the angel Gabreel.  He was, as was often the case, spending time in solitary, in a cave.  But one day, scared of a spirit he saw, and convinced it was a demon, he ran out to his wife.  She told him to sit on her thighs, and asked, three times, “Do you see the spirit now?”  He answered “Yes.”   Then she uncovered and exposed herself, and asked it again.  This time the answer was “No.”   She concluded it was an angel and not a demon, because angels would not be in the presence of uncovered women.  They did not consider the distinct possibility that it was indeed a demon, who knew enough about a superstitious custom to disappear at the right time.

 

His first 13 years of preaching the message in Mecca was a failure. That’s because he used a peaceful method to present it.  He had 72 followers at the end of that effort.  Most of his Arab neighbors, tired of his proselytizing, began to torment him. So he and his few followers had to move to Medina.   He then threatened to kill the Jewish inhabitants of Medina.  So an important Jewish man offered to give Muhammad the entire city and all their money if Mohammad would allow the men to walk out with their wives and children.  And they would leave their weapons behind.  The “peaceful” prophet refused.  Then he had the boys and men all decapitated, about 700, their bodies buried in a trench, and the women became concubines.   But first they were forced to walk through the corpses. This was the beginning of his first "missionary journey."

 

Having his first taste of blood, he later wrote a new sura in the Quran.  Gabreel now switched and “told” him that Allah gave him permission to engage in war, per sura 22:39: “Permission is given to those who engage in war because they were wronged, and surely Allah is capable of helping them.”  Well, he was "wronged," he figured, because the city that he “had to” massacre didn't believe him.  He persuaded more people from Mecca to move to Medina, and thus increased his followers.  (Might makes right, as they say. Some Jews left alive in Medina believed in him because he bribed them, or they were in fear for their lives).  Shortly after that, Allah also legalized jihad—war with non-believers, and allowed forced conversion.

 

As he recognized his talent for killing, he began forming an army and raided local Arab villages, especially the rich people’s homes, and raided caravans.  Now the language of the Quran, still coming from Gabreel, became more violent and harsh.  He claimed for himself 20% of all booty from such raids, per the Quran’s sura 8:41: “And know that whatever you take of spoil…a fifth part to Allah and to the messenger (that would be him).”

 

Finally Muhammad died at the estimated age of 62, after sweeping all over Arabia.  He was poisoned—Muslims believed it was from a Jewish lady.  But obviously he had his share of enemies, rather than just blaming Jews.  Most of his followers immediately left the religion.  But a few of his most dedicated followers “persuaded” them back so they could continue.

 

Enough of his high-character life.  Now let’s show what the Quran teaches.  I have to go into more detail, on its doctrine of abrogation, or nullification.  The Quran bluntly points out, in 6:34, that it is perfect and can’t be changed: “no one can change the words of Allah.”  But later he found a need to change some things, so, eureka, we have sura 2:106: “Whatever verse we abrogate, or cause it to be forgotten, we bring a better than it or like it.  Do you not know that Allah has might over all things?”  Now the big question is, How many portions of the perfect Quran contain abrogation (or, have been changed)?   The answer is, 71 suras are so affected—but there are only 114 in all.  These are serious changes; for instance, sura 9:5, called The Verse of the Sword, abrogates 124 verses that spoke softly about other religions and other people—such as being decent to the People of the Book ("the Book" is the Bible, so this was tolerance of Christians and Jews.)  So evidently he wrote some tolerant verses—but these were negated, or abrogated, by the new jihad suras.  A little history to explain that.  When he was way outnumbered by his enemies in Mecca, when he was even afraid of Allah, who could be a demon, he conveniently softened his tune—he praised his enemies’ gods intentionally, flattering them that he was their friend—so they wouldn’t kill him.  At that time he wrote nice things about other religions in the Quran.  But when his numbers acquired strength, he decided that those decent verses in the Quran must have been dictated to him by Satan.  Thus they had to be abrogated—en masse.  As my favorite author/resource on this says, “When they (Muslims) are weak in a land, they lie and deceive the people…by stating that they also believe in Jesus…until they have the upper hand.  Then is when they will practice the hate of those Quran verses.”  As sura 47:35 says, “So do not be weak and do not call for peace when you have the upper hand.  And Allah is with you.”

 

Now it's time for a comparison:  What does our Scripture say about our God vs what does the Quran say about Allah, their god?  Are they the same god?  Let’s start with the Christian God.

 

1.  Jesus is the only Son of God.  Yet He was in God, and was God

Isaiah 9:6:

For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

John 1:1-3, 14:

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was GodHe was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made…. 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

John 14:7,9,10:

“If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him”…He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me?

See also Romans 9:5, Philippians 2:5-11, Colossians 1;16, 2:9, Titus 2:13, Hebrews 1:8, and II Peter 1:1.  Again, a difficult concept—but the Word says it. 

2.  God loves us, is merciful and forgiving, hates to see anyone in hell—but must judge us and our rejection of Him

John 3:16: 

God so loved the world, that He gave His only son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Exodus 34:6-7:

And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children’s children to the third and the fourth generation.”

II Peter 3:9:

The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

3.  Jesus (God on earth) prophesied the future, healed, had compassion, warned of hell, died for us, and rose again from the dead

His compassion and healing:  The verses here are too many to count, and are well known. I can’t resist giving you one, the raising of Lazarus from the dead. John 11:32-43:

Then, when Mary came where Jesus was, and saw Him, she fell down at His feet, saying to Him, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.” 33 Therefore, when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, He groaned in the spirit and was troubled. 34 And He said, “Where have you laid him?” They said to Him, “Lord, come and see.” 35 Jesus wept. 36 Then the Jews said, “See how He loved him!” 37 And some of them said, “Could not this Man, who opened the eyes of the blind, also have kept this man from dying?” Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it. 39 Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.”40 Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?” 41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying…. 43 Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!” 

Jesus predicted he would be betrayed, who His betrayer was, and Peter’s denial.  Mark 10:33:

“Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death and deliver Him to the Gentiles

Matthew 26:23, 25, 26

He answered and said, “He who dipped his hand with Me in the dish will betray Me. .. 25 Then Judas, who was betraying Him, answered and said, “Rabbi, is it I?” He said to him, “You have said it.”

Mark 14:29-30, 71-72

 29 Peter said to Him, “Even if all are made to stumble, yet I will not be.” 30 Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you that today, even this night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.”…. (Later)Then he (Peter, under pressure) began to curse and swear, “I do not know this Man of whom you speak!”  72 A second time the rooster crowed. Then Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.” And when he thought about it, he wept.

4.  Jesus predicts His crucifixion and the exact date of His resurrection from the dead

Matthew 20:18-19

“Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death, 19 and deliver Him to the Gentiles to mock and to scourge and to crucify. And the third day He will rise again.”

As He said, He rose from the dead, Matthew 28:1-6, John 20:19-21

Now after the Sabbath, as the first day of the week began to dawn, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb. And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat on it. His countenance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow. And the guards shook for fear of him, and became like dead men. But the angel answered and said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay….Then, the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, “Peace be with you.” 20 When He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord.21 So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.” 


Now let’s look at the god Allah. After you compare them, you will see their obvious differences in major doctrines.  You will be asked, “Which do you think is more worthy of worship?”

Allah had no “female partner” so he had no son.  He called those who believe in the Trinity of God “polytheists.”  Followers of Allah say, Christian trinity worships the Father, the Son, and Mary. Jesus was not God.

sura 4:48 …Whoso ascribeth partners to Allah, he hath indeed invented a tremendous sin.

5:75 The Messiah, son of Mary, was only a messenger.

Allah has no mercy, is uncaring, unforgiving, capricious

2:10 In their hearts is a disease, and Allah increases their disease. A painful doom is theirs since they lie.

2:15 Allah (Himself) doth mock them, leaving them to wander blindly

2:17-18 Allah taketh away their light and leaveth them in darkness, where they cannot see, Deaf, dumb and blind; and they return not.

4:88 Seek ye to guide him whom Allah hath sent astray? He whom Allah sendeth astray, for him thou… canst not find a road

13:14 The prayer of disbelievers goeth (far) astray.

14:19 If He will, He can remove you and bring (in) some new creation;

3:128 It is no concern at all… whether He relent toward them or punish them

4:119 And surely I will lead them astray, and surely I will arouse desires in them…

4:168-9 Those who disbelieve and deal in wrong, Allah will never forgive them, neither will He guide them unto a road, Except the road of hell, wherein they will abide for ever. And that is ever easy for Allah.

5:41 He whom Allah doometh unto sin, thou (by thine efforts) wilt avail him naught against Allah. Those are they for whom the Will of Allah is that He cleanse not their hearts. Theirs in the world will be ignominy, and in the Hereafter an awful doom

6:25 Of them are some who would  listen unto thee, but We have placed upon their hearts veils, lest they should understand, and in their ears a deafness.

6:149 …Had He willed He could indeed have guided all of you.

7:164 Why preach ye to a folk whom Allah is about to destroy or punish with an awful doom,

7:178 He whom Allah leadeth, he indeed is led aright, while he whom Allah sendeth astray - they indeed are losers

9:113 It is not for the Prophet, and those who believe, to pray for the forgiveness of idolaters even though they may be near of kin after it hath become clear that they are people of hell-fire.

10:100 It is not for any soul to believe, save (except)  by the permission of Allah

23:27( To Noah)…plead not with Me on behalf of those who have done wrong. Lo! they will be drowned ..

32:13 I will fill hell with the jinn and mankind together

66:2 Allah hath made lawful for you (Muslims) absolution from your oaths (So that means they could sin—by perjury—and it’s OK with Allah. So, do Muslims make good citizens in court?)

17:72 Whoso is blind here will be blind in the Hereafter, and yet further from the road

 

Allah is a misogynist (a woman-hater)

2:222 They question thee (O Muhammad) concerning menstruation. Say: It is an illness, so let women alone at such times

2:223 Your women are a tilth for you (a field for plowing) so go to your tilth as ye will (plow them as ye will)

 2:283 And call two witnesses from among your men, two witnesses. And if two men be not at hand, then a man and two women (e.g., female witness is worth half that of a man).

4:3 …marry of the women, who seem good to you, two or three or four

4:11 Allah chargeth you concerning (the provision for) your children: to the male the equivalent of the portion of two females

4:15 As for those of your women who are guilty of lewdness, call to witness four of you against them…then confine them to the houses until death (it didn’t take much for the women to be accused of “lewdness;” showing her face, or part of a leg, etc)

4:24 And all married women (are forbidden unto you) save those (captives) whom your right hands possess.

4:34 Men are in charge of women, because Allah hath made the one of them to excel the other,... As for those from whom ye fear rebellion, admonish them and banish them to beds apart, and scourge them.

66:10 ...the wife of Noah and the wife of Lot...betrayed them (their husbands) and it was said (unto the women): Enter the Fire along with those who enter (this tale of betrayal has no support; it's just lies against women).


Allah loves war and recommends hatred and killing of non-Muslims

4:74 Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward.

3:110 Ye (Muslims) are the best community that hath been raised up for mankind. Ye enjoin right conduct and forbid indecency; and ye believe in Allah. And if the People of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) had believed it had been better for them. Some of them are believers; but most of them are evil-livers.

3:118 O ye who believe! Take not for intimates others than your own folk, who would spare no pains to ruin you; they love to hamper you. Hatred is revealed by (the utterance of) their mouths

2:109 Many of the people of the Scripture long to make you disbelievers after your belief… Forgive and be indulgent (toward them) until Allah give command (uh, command to do what?)

2:191 And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out…Such is the reward of disbelievers.

2:216 Warfare is ordained for you.

4:89 …So choose not friends from them till they forsake their homes in the way of Allah; if they turn back (to enmity) then take them and kill them wherever ye find them

4:91 If they keep not aloof from you nor offer you peace (i.e., if they are not surrendering)… then take them and kill them wherever ye find them. Against such We have given you clear warrant.

8:39 And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is all for Allah

8:65 O Prophet! Exhort the believers to fight…they shall overcome those who disbelieve, because they are a folk without intelligence.

9:33 He it is Who hath sent His messenger with the guidance and the Religion of Truth, that He may cause it to prevail over all religion, however much the idolaters may be averse.

9:73 O Prophet! Strive against the disbelievers and the hypocrites! Be harsh with them.

28:86 never be a helper to the disbelievers.

9:111 Allah hath bought from the believers their lives and their wealth because the Garden (heaven) will be theirs: they shall fight in the way of Allah and shall slay and be slain.


Allah hates Jews and Christians

2:63a, 65 And remember, O Children of Israel…ye know of those of you who broke the Sabbath, how We said unto them: Be ye apes, despised and hated!

2:96 And thou wilt find them (the Jews) greediest of mankind for life and (greedier) than the idolaters. (Each) one of them would like to be allowed to live a thousand years. And to live (a thousand years) would by no means remove him from the doom.

5:12-13 Allah made a covenant of old with the Children of Israel.  And because of their breaking their covenant, We have cursed them and made hard their hearts. Thou wilt not cease to discover treachery from all save a few of them

5:51 O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends

5:59 Say: O People of the Scripture! (Jews and Christians)...most of you are evil-livers

5:60,63 Allah hath turned some to apes and swine…Why do not the rabbis and the priests forbid their evil-speaking and their devouring of illicit gain ?

62:5 The likeness of those who are entrusted with the Law of Moses, yet apply it not, is as the likeness of the ass carrying books.

9:30 And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah.  How perverse are they! (No proof of the “Ezra” charge).


Allah is a sadist

4:56 Lo! Those who disbelieve Our revelations, We shall expose them to the Fire. As often as their skins are consumed We shall exchange them for fresh skins that they may taste the torment.

5:33 The only reward of those who make war upon Allah and His messenger will be that they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off

5:38 As for the thief, both male and female, cut off their hands.

6:70…For them is drink of boiling water and a painful doom, because they disbelieved.

6:137 Thus …killing of their children seems fair unto many of the idolaters, that they may ruin them and make their faith obscure for them. Had Allah willed (it otherwise), they had not done so. So leave them alone with their devices.

7:44 And the dwellers of the Garden (heaven) cry unto the dwellers of the Fire: We have found that which our Lord promised us (to be) the Truth. Have ye (too) found that which your Lord promised the Truth? (Thus, those in heaven will mock in glee the misfortune of those in hell).

8:12 I will throw fear into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Then smite the necks (i.e., decapitate) and smite of them each finger.

8:37 The wicked will He place piece upon piece, and heap them all together, and consign them unto hell.

8:50 If thou couldst see how the angels receive those who disbelieve, smiting faces and their backs and (saying): Taste the punishment of burning!

17:58 There is not a township but We shall destroy it ere the Day of Resurrection

18:29 We have prepared for disbelievers Fire. Its tent encloseth them. If they ask for showers, they will be showered with water like to molten lead which burneth the faces

19:74 How many a generation have We destroyed before them, who were more imposing in respect of gear and outward seeming! (Allah doing his bragging).

21:15 And this their crying ceased not till We made them as reaped corn, extinct.

21:39 If those who disbelieved but knew the time when they will not be able to drive off the fire from their faces and from their backs, and they will not be helped!

22:19-22 But as for those who disbelieve, garments of fire will be cut out for them; boiling fluid will be poured down on their heads Whereby that which is in their bellies, and their skins too, will be melted And for them are hooked rods of iron. Whenever, in their anguish, they would go forth from thence they are driven back therein and (it is said unto them): Taste the doom of burning

24:2 The adulterer and the adulteress, scourge ye each one of them (with) a hundred stripes. And let not pity for the twain withhold you from obedience to Allah, if ye believe in Allah and the Last Day. And let a party of believers witness their punishment.

47:23 Such are they whom Allah curseth so that He deafeneth them and maketh blind their eyes.

50:30 On the day when We say unto hell: Art thou filled? and it saith: Can there be more to come?

113:1-4 Say: I seek refuge in the Lord of the Daybreak From the evil of that which He created. From the evil of the darkness when it is intense And from the evil of malignant witchcraft (Muhammad must have dealt with spirits at night).

70:15-16 lo! It is the fire of hell Eager to roast

74:56 And they will not heed unless Allah willeth (it). He is the fount of fear

102:6,8 For ye will behold hell-fire. Then, on that day, ye will be asked concerning pleasure


Allah makes errors, many absurdities

Hadith (statement of Muhammad):  Muhammad said, "All children of Adam are poked on their sides before they were born, except Isa, son of Mary; when Satan went to poke him, he poked Mary’s hymen.”

66:12 (original--since abrogated):  Mary, the daughter of Amr (Note: but the daughter of Amram was Miriam, who lived 1500 years earlier than Mary. See note below; Mary was the daughter of Heli)...to continue the Muslim story..."who guarded her sexual parts, so we breathed into it (the vagina) from our spirit (to create Jesus, or “Isa”).

23:14 (original):  Then we created the nutfah into a clot…the clot into a piece of flesh…piece of flesh into bones…clothed the bones with flesh.”  Hadiths claimed these 4 stages of “embryonic development” took 40 days each, thus a typical pregnancy would last a little over 5 months!  (But wait--didn't they say, 4-5 years?)

86:5-7 (original):  So let the human look to what he was created from….(nutfah comes) from gushing water, it comes out from the backbones and the breasts (Note: but females don’t produce any fluid from breasts for the purpose of conception…and male sperm does not come from the backbone--despite what Allah is saying)

Hadith:  When Isa knocked at the door and heard the noises inside the house, the parents lied and told him that the children were not home and that the noise was the voices of pigs and monkeys. Then Isa said, “O, Allah, may they be.”  And the children were transformed into pigs and monkeys.

Hadith:  The angel Gabreel (or Gabreel and Mika’il) helped Isa have victory over Satan by slapping him with their wings.

Hadith (on Isa’s return):  …he will descend from heaven, break the cross, kill the pig, and establish the tribute tax.  He will end religions except for Allah.

2:34 And when We said unto the angels: Prostrate yourselves before Adam, they fell prostrate, all save Iblis. He demurred through pride, and so became a disbeliever. (But...only God is to be worshipped; He would never command angels to worship man.  Uh, who is Iblis?)

25:54 And He it is Who hath created man from water (No, wait..) 6:2 He it is Who hath created you from clay (No, wait…) 3:59 He created him of dust (No, wait…) 16:4 He hath created man from a drop of fluid (No, darn it, wait…) 96:2 Createth man from a clot.(Yes, Allah is sure this time…man was created from a…clot!)

2:247-8 Their Prophet said unto them: Lo! Allah hath raised up Saul to be a king for you… And their Prophet said unto them: Lo! the token of his kingdom is that there shall come unto you the ark …which the house of Moses and the house of Aaron left behind, the angels bearing it (how strange is this fable!)

3:85 And whoso seeketh as religion other than the Surrender (to Allah) it will not be accepted from him (or was it…) 2:256 There is no compulsion in religion (this is the most ignored sura of all).

2:106 Nothing of our revelation (even a single verse) do we abrogate or cause be forgotten,  but we bring (ie, put in place instead) one better or the like thereof. (Well, I ask, which is it?  Is it…10:64 There is no changing the Words of Allah (or is it…) 16:101 And when We put a revelation in place of (another) revelation, - and Allah knoweth best what He revealeth. Infidels say: Lo! thou art but inventing” (i.e., creating a lie) Most of them know not.

3:7 He it is Who hath revealed unto thee (Muhammad) the Scripture wherein are clear revelations..and others (which are) allegorical. But those in whose hearts is doubt…by seeking to explain it. None knoweth its explanation save Allah (in other words, Don’t try to understand the Quran).

4:157 And because of their saying: We slew the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, Allah's messenger - they slew him not nor crucified him, but it appeared so unto them (they not only degrade Jesus to a prophet less than Muhammad, but now they’re implying, He was never crucified—hadiths say, by the way, another who looked like Him was substituted…Jesus never died.  Right.)

6:38 There is not an animal in the earth, nor a flying creature flying on two wings, but they are peoples like unto you

21:33 the sun and the moon. They float, each in an orbit (they’re saying, sun orbits around the earth along with moon).

19:28 (They're speaking of Mary, mother of Jesus, and said): O sister of Aaron!  (But Mary lived 1500 years later than her “brother,” Aaron.  Muhammad, or Allah, confused her with Miriam again.)

19:29-30 They said: How can we talk to one who is in the cradle, a young boy? He (supposedly Jesus) spake: Lo! I am the slave of Allah. He hath given me the Scripture and hath appointed me a Prophet.

20:71 (Pharaoh) said: I shall crucify you on the trunks of palm trees (but crucifixion was invented by the Romans; Pharaoh knew nothing about it in this time period).

38:41-42 Our bondman Job, when he cried unto his Lord (And it was said unto him): Strike the ground with thy foot. This (spring) is a cool bath and a refreshing drink (mixing two Bible stories into one).

39:53 Allah, Who forgiveth all sins. (In actuality, this is not the case, as we have proven.  Verses like this are thrown in as sneaky ways for missionaries to proselytize).

42:30 Whatever of misfortune striketh you, it is what your right hands have earned (So misfortune is your fault.  Thank God, you can avoid a lot of grief by reading the Bible on this subject).

54:1 The hour drew nigh and the moon was rent in twain. (This would cause tsunamis, changes in tides, etc—none is recorded like that).

 

So which of these—Our God, or Allah, their god--has the kind of character that uplifts, that is full of loving and forgiving, and is worthy of worship?

Appendix in Answer to Once Saved Always Saved Blogs of June and July of 2025

 Before I begin: The list of verses below is NOT saying you can’t go to heaven unless you “pass” all the requirements listed (there are other sins and good works; we’re not trying to list those).  Salvation has an initial date, and also requires a sanctification period for the rest of your life, as you must grow in the Lord.  As I expressed in another blog, INITIAL salvation can be accomplished by (1) BELIEF in what Christ did:  He is God, He died to pay the price to redeem me; He was resurrected—that means I could be resurrected, taking away the power of death.  (2) A desire to REPENT, change my mind and turn away from my sins and the world which I can’t reconcile to God; and (3) Receive an adult BAPTISM to testify to the world that I am on Christ’s side.  Your author differs from most denominations in the second requirement for salvation:  to MAINTAIN my salvation, I must show a love-faith relationship with Christ, so my love and obedience with Him grows.  I progress in sanctification, gradually becoming more like Him in bearing fruit.  (More on fruit of Spirit in Galatians 5).  If I am initially saved, and then I go wandering off into the world’s habits, and don’t develop fruits or relationship (or abiding in Him), then I lose salvation at some point, as Scriptures below will show.  After that, getting “back on track” takes honest confession of weakness and, realizing His holiness and hatred of the practice of sin, and I begin once again the path to sanctification.  God has patience, to a degree.  Some sins are worse than others, and we must discipline ourselves to avoid those altogether.  We must examine ourselves often, confess our sin often, and ask for the Spirit’s help in the power of feeding Christ, and not the world, to make my decisions—and we should read God’s Word often to learn what His commandments are.  We MUST endure to the end to reach Heaven. 

 

All the verses below are from the New King James Version, the only modern translation which has the near-uncorrupted truth. As I point out in a series of blogs, every one of the modern versions is from a corrupt Sinaiticus and Vaticanus Codices. Fortunately, the NKJV only bent a little to bow to the claims of “critical theory.”

THESE ARE NEW TESTAMENT VERSES THAT EITHER (1) DON’T GUARANTEE “ONCE SAVED, ALWAYS SAVED,” BY CLEARLY ASSERTING THAT SANCTIFICATION IS REQUIRED; OR (2) INDICATE THAT THERE ARE THINGS WHEREIN YOU COULD LOSE YOUR SALVATION: IT IS NECESSARY TO ENDURE TO THE END, SHOWING GODLY FRUIT AND WORKS:

:

Matthew 3:10 And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees…every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

Matthew 6:14-15 “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses

Matthew 18:27, 34-35 Then the master of that servant was moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt…. But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and he laid hands on him and took him by the throat….And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers until he should pay all that was due to him.35 “So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses.”

  •  
  • Matthew 25: 31-45: “When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. 32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. 33 And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. 34 Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom…. Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40 And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me….’Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink….inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’

Cut it down; why does it use up the ground?’ But he answered and said to him, ‘Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and fertilize it. And if it bears fruit, well. But if not, after that you can cut it down.’ ”
