Brothers,

We, Christians, do not worship the Islamic allah.

We worship the God of Israel or the Christian Allah and His Son Jesus.

Who is this Allah? Who is the God of Israel? He said about Himself that He is the God of LOVE.

Why? Let’s consider it today.

But in the beginning, let’s listen to our brother Sazie Johnson:


"Hello Hamed,

I do not know you personally. All I see are your words. Therefore; I must judge you by your words. In one e-mail you wrote: “Anyway, I have converted many Christians in Africa, India and Europe.” In another e-mail you wrote: “It is very difficult and impossible to convert to any other religion.” How can you claim credibility when you contradict yourself? In the same way I do not know Muhammad’s god personally. All I see are his words. Therefore; I must judge him by your words. How can he claim credibility when he contradicts himself?

Quran 25:59 reads, “He Who created the heavens and the earth and all that is between, in six days, and is firmly established on the Throne (of Authority): Allah Most Gracious: ask thou, then, about Him of any acquainted (with such things).”

That is good. There is no problem here. Muhammad’s god, also known as the Blackstone in the Kaaba, created the heavens and the earth in six days.

Quran 41:9 reads, “Say: Is it that ye deny Him Who created the earth in two Days?”

That is also good. There is no problem here. The Blackstone created the earth in two days. By all calculations, it is safe to determine that Muhammad’s god created the heavens in remaining four days. In other words, if he took six days to create the heavens and the earth and all that is between, and only two days to create the earth, that leaves us with four days in which he created the heavens.  

Let us read Quran 41:12: “So He completed them as seven firmaments (expense of the sky, heavens) in two Days, and He assigned to each heaven its duty and command.”

  What happened to the other two days? Did he rest or are they the two days he used to plan how to create the heavens and the earth?

  Like I said, “I do not know you personally. Therefore; I must judge you by your words. How can you claim credibility when you contradict yourself?” On one hand you are converting Christians all over Europe and Africa to Islam. On the other hand you say, “It is impossible to convert anyone to another religion.” You speak just like Muhammad’s god. On one hand he created the heavens and the earth and all that is between, in six days. In two days he created the earth. And in another two days he created everything outside of the earth. What happened to the other two days? Where they used for planning? How can he claim credibility when he contradicts himself?

  Here is the problem, Hamed: When Uthman Ibn 'Affan, the third caliph and the husband of Ruqayya the daughter of Muhammad, set fire to Allah’s words because he loved Allah so much, he did not properly and scholarly edit his version of the Quran when he have today.

The great Muslim scholar Dashti laments (cries out about) the literary defects of the Qur'an when he said, "Unfortunately the Qur'an was badly edited and its contents are very obtusely arranged." Then he concludes: "All students of the Qur'an wonder why the editors did not use the natural and logical method of ordering by date of revelation, as in 'Ali ibn Taleb's lost copy of the text (Quran)." (Dashti 1985:28)

Quran, word of god, my ass!

 
Hello Wassen,

Are you sure you want more Christians in this group?

You wrote: “Judaism, Christianity and Islam are sister religions. All these three religions go back to Hazrat Ibrahim (Peace Be upon Him). Judaism, Christianity and Islam are the teachings of Moses (Peace Be upon Him), Jesus Christ (Peace Be upon Him) and Mohammad (Peace Be upon Him).”

  He is wrong. It is honorable to say, “Judaism, Christianity and Islam have a common ancestry (fore-father, Abraham).” But to say that the three religions are sister religions is wrong. The one and only commonality among Judaism, Christianity and Islam is Abraham — no more than that.

  In fact Muhammad’s god does not think the three religions are sister religion. Quran 9:29 reads, “Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture (Book) as believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, and forbid not that which Allah hath forbidden by His messenger, and follow not the Religion of Truth, until they pay the tribute readily, being brought low.”

  Al-Bukhari Volume 1, Book 2, Number 24: Narrated Ibn 'Umar: Allah's Apostle said: "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform a that, then they save their lives an property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah."

  Of the three monotheistic religions, the only sister religions are Judaism and Christianity.

Quran 5:51 reads, “O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends one to another. He among you who taketh them for friends is (one) of them. Lo! Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.”

  If you call us (Judaism and Christianity) your sister religion, Allah will take you for one of us and not guide you.

  No Christian or Jew considers Islam his sister religion unless if sisterhood means to kill Christians and Jews, and to tax them heavily.

Are you sure you want more Christians in this group?


Hello Walid,

God speaks in Isaiah 45:7: “I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil/calamity: I the LORD do all these things.”

There are two types of evil. One type of evil is created by God; the other type is not created by God. Evil such as distress, punishments, and hell are created by God to deter (prevent) sin. The other type of evil such as to entice (trick) man into sin is not the character of a Holy God. It is the character of Muhammad’s god. Quran 4:142 reads, “Surely the hypocrites strive to deceive Allah, and He who deceives them…” Imagine that! A god deceiving (tricking) people. Again, this type of evil such as to entice (trick) man into sin is not the character of a Holy God, but of Muhammad’s god.

  It is immoral and inherently wicked for God to create hell while tempting or enticing (tricking) man into it as (Islamic) Allah does. The (Islamic)Allah does not only deceive hypocrites in Quran 4:142, he is also the best of schemer in Quran 3:54. That is the type of evil the Holy Bible does not attribute to God. But evil such as distress, punishments, and hell are created by God to deter (prevent) sin."

Our sister Mona Saleh said:

"I fully agree with Sazie, the three religions as they are today are not sister religions, they were in the past when they were given to Moses and Jesus peace be upon them. Today after the alteration that have been done to the Torah and the Bible the three religions are different creeds.

But the ayah orders Muslims to fight who refuse to pay their jezyah ( tax) not all the people of the book. The people of the book are safe to worship whatever they want as long as they keep their oaths and responsibilities with Muslims."

Brothers. Let’s consider what Mona said.

Quran 9:29 reads, Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture as believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, and forbid not that which Allah hath forbidden by His messenger, and follow not the Religion of Truth, until they pay the tribute readily, being brought low. (Pickthal)

Let’s read the Qur’an in Arabic now to understand the meaning of this Surah better:

  قَاتِلُوا الَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَلَا بِالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَلَا يُحَرِّمُونَ مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَلَا يَدِينُونَ دِينَ الْحَقِّ مِنَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ حَتَّىٰ يُعْطُوا الْجِزْيَةَ عَن يَدٍ وَهُمْ صَاغِرُونَ

سورة التوبة 29:9

  No Christian or Jew considers Islam his sister religion unless if sisterhood means to kill Christians and Jews, and to tax them heavily.

Who are the People of the Book in Qur’an? The Jews and Christians as the people of the book since they were the only ones who were given the book from allah, according to Islam.

If the Quran (according to this Surah above) is limiting the taking of Jizya ONLY to the People of the Book then Muhammad violated the orders of his own scripture and Islamic allah!  Why? Because Muhammad permitted the Persians to pay Jizya since they are not part of this group called the People of the Book!!!

Muhammad himself permitted his followers to take Jizya from the pagans/polytheists according to Qur’an and Hadith!

Those who believe (in the Qur'an), those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Sabians and the Christians, - any who believe in God and the Last Day, and work righteousness, - on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. Surah. 5:69, 2:62

How, then, can the Jews and Christians be listed with those who do not believe in the existence of God and the final judgment?

It is one of the hundreds other contradictions in the words of Islamic allah which we can see in the Qur’an and Hadith! Only those, who study Islam, are able to know Islamic allah and they know that he was created by jinns/demons. They know that Islamic allah and Islam compose one of the millions cults of this world where people worship idols, kissing the black meteorite Kaaba and bow down before it daily and during hajj….not before the God of Israel who was always God of Israel! They prefer to bow down before the unknown god whom they do not know, because they do NOT know Islam and madness which we see there in Qur’an and Hadith! Islam was created by demons/jinns who deceived Muhammad in the cave. But God gave His HOLY revelations about His Son Jesus in the Holy Torah and we all are able to see the authentic teaching of the TRUE and LIVING God by reading His HOLY words in the Torah and Injil! These words were Given by God to Jews in Israel over 1,600 years before the existence of Islam and the word ‘islam’!!!!

So, Islamic allah in Qur’an clearly said that ONLY the People of the Book should pay Jizya!!! Remember that. But why then the Hadith and Qur’an (9:29) has some other groups in view besides the Jews and Christians from whom Jizya can be extracted?

Muslim leaders such as Umar ibn al-Khattab took Jizya from the Persians even though they were labeled pagans, specifically al-mushrikeen or those who ascribe partners with allah:

Narrated Jubair bin Haiya:

'Umar sent the Muslims to the great countries to fight the pagans. When Al-Hurmuzan embraced Islam, 'Umar said to him, "I would like to consult you regarding these countries which I intend to invade." Al-Hurmuzan said, "Yes, the example of these countries and their inhabitants who are the enemies of the Muslims, is like a bird with a head, two wings and two legs; If one of its wings got broken, it would get up over its two legs, with one wing and the head; and if the other wing got broken, it would get up with two legs and a head, but if its head got destroyed, then the two legs, two wings and the head would become useless. The head stands for Khosrau, and one wing stands for Caesar and the other wing stands for Faris. So, order the Muslims to go towards Khosrau." So, 'Umar sent us (to Khosrau) appointing An-Nu’man bin Muqrin as our commander. When we reached the land of the enemy, the representative of Khosrau came out with forty-thousand warriors, and an interpreter got up saying, "Let one of you talk to me!" Al-Mughira replied, "Ask whatever you wish." The other asked, "Who are you?" Al-Mughira replied, "We are some people from the Arabs; we led a hard, miserable, disastrous life: we used to suck the hides and the date stones from hunger; we used to wear clothes made up of fur of camels and hair of goats, and to worship trees and stones. While we were in this state, the Lord of the Heavens and the Earths, Elevated is His Remembrance and Majestic is His Highness, sent to us from among ourselves a Prophet whose father and mother are known to us. Our Prophet, the Messenger of our Lord, has ordered us to fight you till you worship Allah Alone or give Jizya (i.e. tribute); and our Prophet has informed us that our Lord says:-- "Whoever amongst us is killed (i.e. martyred), shall go to Paradise to lead such a luxurious life as he has never seen, and whoever amongst us remain alive, shall become your master." (Al-Mughira, then blamed An-Nu’man for delaying the attack and) An-Nu'man said to Al-Mughira, "If you had participated in a similar battle, in the company of Allah's Apostle he would not have blamed you for waiting, nor would he have disgraced you. But I accompanied Allah’s Apostle in many battles and it was his custom that if he did not fight early by daytime, he would wait till the wind had started blowing and the time for the prayer was due (i.e. after midday)." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 53, No. 386)

The Persians were NOT classified as being from the People of the Book. Why they should they pay this tax?:

And this is a Book which We have revealed as a blessing: so follow it and be righteous, that ye may receive mercy: Lest ye should say: "The Book was sent down to two Peoples before us, and for our part, we remained unacquainted with all that they learned by assiduous study:" Qur’an 6:155-156

Clearly, the Quran doesn’t include anyone other than the Jews and Christians as the People of the book since they were the only ones who were given the book from allah, according to Qur’an. Therefore, if the Quran were limiting the taking of Jizya to the people of the book (Qur’an 9:29) then Muhammad violated the orders of his own scripture/allah by permitting the Persians to pay it since they are not part of this group.

It has been reported from Sulaiman b. Buraid through his father that when the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) appointed anyone as leader of an army or detachment he would especially exhort him to fear Allah and to be good to the Muslims who were with him. He would say: Fight in the name of Allah and in the way of Allah. Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war, do not embezzle the spoils; do not break your pledge; and do not mutilate (the dead) bodies; do not kill the children. When you meet your enemies who are polytheists, invite them to three courses of action. If they respond to any one of these, you also accept it and withhold yourself from doing them any harm. Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them. Then invite them to migrate from their lands to the land of Muhajirs and inform them that, if they do so, they shall have all the privileges and obligations of the Muhajirs. If they refuse to migrate, tell them that they will have the status of Bedouin Muslims and will be subjected to the Commands of Allah like other Muslims, but they will not get any share from the spoils of war or Fai' except when they actually fight with the Muslims (against the disbelievers). If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah’s help and fight them. When you lay siege to a fort and the besieged appeal to you for protection in the name of Allah and His Prophet, do not accord to them the guarantee of Allah and His Prophet, but accord to them your own guarantee and the guarantee of your companions for it is a lesser sin that the security given by you or your companions be disregarded than that the security granted in the name of Allah and His Prophet be violated. When you besiege a fort and the besieged want you to let them out in accordance with Allah’s Command, do not let them come out in accordance with His Command, but do so at your (own) command, for you do not know whether or not you will be able to carry out Allah’s behest with regard to them. (Sahih Muslim, Book 019, No.4294)

All of this presupposes that Islam permits the existence of other religions and worldviews under its umbrella, provided that those who embrace such beliefs are willing to pay Jizya.

What does it mean? It means that the Islamic allah orders Muslims to kill ONLY Jews and Christians/the People of the Book until they pay a sum of money called Jizya but Muhammad added to this group also the following groups of people:

1. Atheists (those who believe not in God nor the Last Day).

2. Jews and Christians (people of the Book).

3. Everyone else, whether Hindus, Buddhists etc., since these groups do not prohibit what Muhammad forbade nor believe in Islam.

But what Muhammad did, contradicts the passages of the Quran better to say the words of his Islamic god!

Let me remind you this Surah again:

Quran 9:29 reads, Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture as believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, and forbid not that which Allah hath forbidden by His messenger, and follow not the Religion of Truth, until they pay the tribute readily, being brought low. (Pickthal)

But this contradicts passages of Qur’an and Hadith! Why? They demand that those who claim that allah has a son or that he has co-equal partners must convert to Islam or die:

And an announcement from God and His Apostle, to the people (assembled) on the day of the Great Pilgrimage,- that God and His Apostle dissolve (treaty) obligations with the Pagans (al-mushrikeen- literally, those who associate partners with God). If then, ye repent, it were best for you; but if ye turn away, know ye that ye cannot frustrate God. And proclaim a grievous penalty to those who reject Faith. (But the treaties are) not dissolved with those Pagans (al-mushrikeen) with whom ye have entered into alliance and who have not subsequently failed you in aught, nor aided any one against you. So fulfil your engagements with them to the end of their term: for God loveth the righteous. But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans (al-mushrikeen) wherever ye find them, an seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practise regular charity, then open the way for them: for God is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful. If one amongst the Pagans (al-mushrikeen) ask thee for asylum, grant it to him, so that he may hear the word of God; and then escort him to where he can be secure. That is because they are men without knowledge… O ye who believe! Truly the Pagans (al-mushrikoon) are unclean; so let them not, after this year of theirs, approach the Sacred Mosque. And if ye fear poverty, soon will God enrich you, if He wills, out of His bounty, for God is All-knowing, All-wise… The Jews call 'Uzair a son of God, and the Christians call Christ the son of God. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. God's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the Truth! They take their priests and their anchorites to be their lords in derogation of God, and (they take as their Lord) Christ the son of Mary; yet they were commanded to worship but One God: there is no god but He. Praise and glory to Him: (Far is He) from having the partners they associate (yushrikoon) (with Him). Fain would they extinguish God's light with their mouths, but God will not allow but that His light should be perfected, even though the Unbelievers may detest (it). It is He Who hath sent His Apostle with guidance and the Religion of Truth, to proclaim it over all religion, even though the Pagans may detest (it). Surah: 9:3-6, 28, 30-33

So, we see that Mona is NOT right. And statements of Sazie Johnson are in accordance with Islamic scripture: No Christian or Jew considers Islam his sister religion unless if sisterhood means to kill Christians and Jews, and to tax them heavily.

Moreover, Islamic books state that:

Muslims must fight and slay al-mushrikeen wherever they find them unless they repent and convert to Islam.Al-mushrikeen are unclean and therefore cannot approach the sacred mosque, that is the Kaba in Mecca. What this basically implies is that Muslims must fight and slay the Jews and Christians until they repent and become Muslims. Mona, the key word here is: UNTIL they repent and become Muslims! Do you want examples? Look at that:

 The hadith quotes Muhammad as saying that he was ordered to fight the people, not just the Meccans, until they become Muslims:

Narrated Ibn ‘Umar:

Allah's Apostle said: "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform a that, then they save their lives an property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 2, No.24)

Narrated Anas bin Malik:

Allah's Apostle said, "I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: ‘None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.’ And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah." Narrated Maimun ibn Siyah that he asked Anas bin Malik, "O Abu Hamza! What makes the life and property of a person sacred?" He replied, "Whoever says, ‘None has the right to be worshipped but Allah’, faces our Qibla during the prayers, prays like us and eats our slaughtered animal, then he is a Muslim, and has got the same rights and obligations as other Muslims have." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 8, No.387)

To summarize the contradictions in Islam:

The Hadith says that Muhammad commanded, specifically, that he (and subsequently his followers) was to fight all the people until they became Muslims. It is Islam, Mona, and you should know it now. This assumes that Jews and Christians, not just the pagans, must convert to the Islamic faith or die. In the Hadith, Muhammad stated that the people must be fought until they testify that Islamic allah is god and that Muhammad is his messenger which not only contradicts the Quran but also conflicts with the other reports that we quoted where Muslims allowed pagans such as the Persians to remain in their religion provided that they paid Jizya!!! Remember that Mona!

Hence, no matter how hard could Muslims try to reconcile all of this hundreds of such contradictions will always remain. Why? Because Qur’an consists of the words of angles/demons/jinns and NOT of the Holy Words of the God of Israel! He was NEVER in the false religion Islam!  Last point to ponder:

Muhammad said: There is no prophet between me and him, that is, Jesus. He will descent (sic) (to the earth)… He will break the cross, kill swine, and abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except Islam. (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 37, Number 4310, Narrated by Abu Hurayrah: see also Sahih Bukhari Volume 3, Book 43, Number 656)

Muslims, do you know that Muslims even do NOT know today what is Jizyah!!!!?

There is debate about the word itself. Some say it is not an Arabic word by origin!

The jizya was eliminated/abolished!!!! How Jesus can abolish what was already abolished?

Thus some Muslim rulers also collected jizya from Hindus and Sikhs under their rule.The jizya was eliminated in Algeria and Tunisia in the 19th century.

More recently, it has been claimed that a group of militants that referred to themselves as the Taliban imposed the jizya on Pakistan's minority Sikh community after occupying some of their homes and kidnapping a Sikh leader. So, does your Islam relate to Taliban activity? Is your Islam has direct ties with Taliban and people called as terrorists? Open your Qur’an and you will see beheading, cutting of throats made according to the orders of Islamic violent allah. Let me repeat what I said the other day:

There are many proofs in Islam that Muhammad was deceived by the demons/jinns and they made him to create the false religion Islam (Muhammad had convulsions caused by demons/jinns according to Hadith). All Islamic revelations contradict what God of Israel told us over 1,600 years before the existence of Islam!!!! That’s why we reject the false teaching Islam, knowing that even many false teachers/cults killed many people in the USA and allover the world! We are not doomed to be killed by false teachings/cults but we are to be God’s Inheritance according to God’s words which He said over 1,600 years before the foundation of Islam and existence of the word “islam’!!!!!

We all are able to see the Truth.

Because the Truth is only ONE. Jesus said that He is the Truth, the Life and the ONLY Way to God. But it is our choice to close our eyes to this Truth and to close our ears to avoid any encounter with the God’s Truth. Such people will be judged by God and we all know that.

In Luke 10:27 we read the basis of faith of every believer in God, “You shall love the Lord your God will all your heart, and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”

We all are able to see the Truth and the TRUE teaching of the TRUE and LIVING God is LOVE  for God and people!

The Islamic allah calls Muslims to violence:

Quran 9:29 reads,

Fight against

 such of those who have been given the Scripture..

The God of Israel loves all people (killers, rapists, criminals) but He HATES their sins and desires to turn their hearts to Himself. This is the TRUE FAITH in God and it is what you call Christianity or FAITH in the God of Israel. There is no such high standards in Islam! Muhammad allowed people to lie, the Islamic allah called himself as killer and makir ‘deceiver’, the Giver of Dishonour (المذل Al-Mudhill), Al-Mumīt the Destroyer, the Bringer of Death المميت, قتدر Al-Muqtadir the Determiner, the Dominant, الضار Aḍ-Ḍārr The Distressor, The Harmer, The Afflictor.

This is the love of the Islamic allah toward people. He said in Qur’an that his desire is to populate the hell with people!

Amazing. What the madness to believe in such Islamic madness!

Now let’s consider the HOLY Scripture which existed over 1,600 years before the existence of the cult called Islam:

God said:

I have loved you, My people, with an everlasting love.

 With unfailing love I have drawn you to Myself.

Jeremiah 31:3

Here we have an everlasting thought of the God of Israel, "in the beginning, before ever the earth was." Believer, travel back in imagination to the ages of the past—when God inhabited alone these sublime solitudes, space, visible and invisible worlds—then there was a thought of you, and that thought was--Love! God of Israel said that He is the God of LOVE!

Think of that love. He says not, 'You have loved Me with your poor earthly love, therefore have I drawn you.' No, no! It is from nothing in you—no foreseen goodness on your part. Grace, or in other words unmerited favor of God, is the reason of all He has done for people!!!! He is NOT a killer! He loves people! Why we do not see it in Islam! In the false religion Islam! "God who is rich in mercy for His great love with which He loved us.". The God of Israel is Ar-Rahman wa Ar –Rahim because He forgave all our sins! On the Cross His Son Jesus took the sin of the world and made us FREE of our sins!

Why am I not a wrecked and stranded vessel, like thousands before me? Here is the reason: "Yes, I have loved you." Before you had one thought of Me, yes, when your thoughts were those of hatred, rebellion, enmity—My thoughts towards you were thoughts of love! This is the love of God. The LOVE of the TRUE God who is LOVE!!!

We may estimate intensity of God’s love, when the Savior Jesus uttered regarding God’s love such a prayer as this in the Injil,
"That the love with which You have loved Me, may be in them."
How priceless is Your unfailing love!
Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of Your wings.
Psalm 36:7

Why should Muslims be baptized in the name of God Jesus?
To regenerate (remove) sins?

No. Baptism is a symbolic act showing what God has ALREADY DONE in the life of the believer. On the cross, Jesus took the sin of the world. He suffered from our sins, beatings, insults. People spat into His face and tore His body to pieces during the torture by beating with Roman scourges. Romans designed their whips to cut the flesh from their victim's bodies. In addition, a crown of thorns was forced into Jesus’ scalp which was capable of severely irritating major nerves in His head, causing increasing and excruciating pain, as the hours wore on. His body was horribly bruised, cut and bleeding. Having had no nourishment for many hours, and having lost fluids through profuse sweating and much bleeding, Jesus would have been severely dehydrated. This brutal torture would certainly be sending Him into what doctors call “shock,” and shock kills. n addition, Jesus was forced to carry the the wooden beam of the cross on which He would die. Imagine the effect of carrying a heavy weight if you were in that condition. Hung completely naked before the crowd, the pain and damage caused by crucifixion were designed to be so devilishly intense that one would continually long for death, but could linger for days with no relief. According to Dr. Frederick Zugibe, piercing of the median nerve of the hands with a nail can cause pain so incredible that even morphine won't help, “severe, excruciating, burning pain, like lightning bolts traversing the arm into the spinal cord.” Rupturing the foot's plantar nerve with a nail would have a similarly horrible effect. Jesus did not die from exhaustion, the beatings or the 3 hours of crucifixion, but that He died from agony of mind producing rupture of the heart. His evidence comes from what happened when the Roman soldier pierced Christ's left side. The spear released a sudden flow of blood and water (John 19:34). These are symptoms of the  rupture of the heart/cardiac rupture.

The word of Jesus from the cross in the conversation with His Father:

At the ninth hour (the time at which a sacrificial lamb was killed everyday in the Jewish Temple), Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is translated,“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” and soon died, after saying “It is finished.” At about this moment is probably the time when the Temple ram's horn would have been blown by Jewish priests that day, announcing that the priests had completed the sacrifice of the lamb for the sins of Israel. Also at that moment, the great, thick curtain that closed the Holy of Holies room from view in the Jewish Temple, ripped open from top to bottom.
-Mark 15:34 and Matthew 27:46

In the place in the Jewish Temple called as the Holy of Holies room (where was place the Ark of the Covenant with tablets of stone and 10 commandments given by God to Moses) was the presence of God. This place called the Holy of Holies was always holy and even priests could not approach it. They could be immediately killed by the holiness of God.  But upon death of Jesus the thick curtain was ripped open from top to bottom OPENING us the way to God though FAITH in God. Now through FAITH in God Jesus we can BOLDLY enter into the presence of God and ask Him to help us.

Jesus is the Mediator and He is NOT a partner to God.

Because He is God and He is EQUAL to His Father!

His Father left Him to die on our planet earth.

His father did not kill people who insulted and tortured His Son. His Father was HAPPY and PLEASED to see that His Son is God of LOVE and He saved millions of people talking their sins on the cross. Jesus died because of the pain/agony caused by our sins and because of our sins. Though He had fully human body, His nature/essence, lived in this body, was also fully divine. Hua Allah. As God, He could not die from external sources, but only of His own will made Him to suffer instead of us and die instead of us!

His body stopped functioning, but behold:

Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me.

And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands,

 and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band.

 His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire; His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace,

and His voice as the sound of many waters;

 He had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength.

 And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead.

 But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me,

 “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last.

 I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore.

Amen.

 And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.

 Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this.  The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands which you saw are the seven churches.

Revelation 1:12-20

13 وَعِنْدَمَا الْتَفَتُّ نَحْوَ الصَّوْتِ، رَأَيْتُ كَائِناً يُشْبِهُ ابْنَ الإِنْسَانِ، يَقِفُ وَسْطَ سَبْعِ مَنَائِرَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، وَيَرْتَدِي ثَوْباً طَوِيلاً إِلَى الرِّجْلَيْنِ، يَلُفُّ صَدْرَهُ حِزَامٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ.

 14 شَعْرُ رَأْسِهِ نَاصِعُ الْبَيَاضِ كَالصُّوفِ أَوِ الثَّلْجِ، وَعَيْنَاهُ كَشُعْلَةٍ مُلْتَهِبَةٍ.

 15 رِجْلاَهُ تَلْمَعَانِ كَأَنَّهُمَا نُحَاسٌ نَقِيٌّ مَصْقُولٌ بِالنَّارِ، وَصَوْتُهُ يُدَوِّي كَصَوْتِ شَلاَّلٍ غَزِيرٍ،

 16 وَوَجْهُهُ يَتَوَهَّجُ بِالنُّورِ كَشَمْسِ الظَّهِيرَةِ. وَكَانَ فِي يَدِهِ الْيُمْنَى سَبْعَةُ نُجُومٍ، وَمِنْ فَمِهِ يَخْرُجُ سَيْفٌ قَاطِعٌ ذُو حَدَّيْنِ.

 17 فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُهُ ارْتَمَيْتُ عِنْدَ قَدَمَيْهِ كَالْمَيْتِ، فَلَمَسَنِي بِيَدِهِ الْيُمْنَى وَقَالَ: «لاَ تَخَفْ! أَنَا الأَوَّلُ وَالآخِرُ،

 18 أَنَا الْحَيُّ. كُنْتُ مَيْتاً، وَلَكِنْ هَا أَنَا حَيٌّ إِلَى أَبَدِ الآبِدِينَ. وَلِي مَفَاتِيحُ الْمَوْتِ وَالْهَاوِيَةِ.

 19 دَوِّنْ مَا رَأَيْتَهُ، وَمَا يَحْدُثُ الآنَ، وَمَا يُوشِكُ أَنْ يَحْدُثَ بَعْدَهُ.

 20 وَهَذَا سِرُّ النُّجُومِ السَّبْعَةِ الَّتِي رَأَيْتَهَا فِي يَمِينِي، وَمَنَائِرِ الذَّهَبِ السَّبْعِ: النُّجُومُ السَّبْعَةُ تُمَثِّلُ مَلاَئِكَةَ الْكَنَائِسِ السَّبْعِ، أَمَّا الْمَنَائِرُ السَّبْعُ فَهِيَ تُمَثِّلُ الْكَنَائِسَ السَّبْعَ نَفْسَهَا.

Who is this Man?

He is the Word of God. He is God. He is the Son of God.

We call Him Yassua/Jesus.


Dunking people in water during the baptism does NOT make us come alive spiritually. The Holy Spirit does this.

God said:

"I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions,

for My own sake, and remembers your sins no more."

Isaiah 43:25

God calls us all to repentance.

Jesus has already blotted out all our sins.

Therefore, no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus and who do not walk (sin) after (according to) the flesh, but walk according to the Spirit who lives within us, and we are living the life-style as Christians in Christ.

We are no longer condemned and under the penalty of death for our sins... should we as Christians continue to sin and kill so that grace might abound? God forbid!... we repent so that grace might continue to abound. Our Advocate before God is Jesus.

Hebrews chapter 10 verses 26-30 says this: If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.
How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified them, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace?

 For we know Him (God) who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” and again, “The Lord will judge (discipline) his people.”

It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Acts 2:38

 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

  Acts 22:16

 And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on his name.’

Ephesians 5:26

to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,

Titus 3:5

he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy.

He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,

1 Peter 3:20-21

to those who were disobedient long ago when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built. In it only a few people, eight in all, were saved through water,

 and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

  A missionary among Muslims in Africa asked me the other day:

"How does a person get to heaven?"

I said:

  Through FAITH in God Jesus, repentance, and holy life.

He said:

"Exactly.

Acts 2:38

 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

John 1:11-13: "To all who received Him (Jesus), to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God--children born not of natural descent, *NOR OF HUMAN DECISION* or a husband's will,

but BORN OF GOD!"

Ephesians 2:8-10: "For it by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this is NOT from *YOURSELVES*, it is the *GIFT* of God--not by works, so that no one can boast.

For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."

Isaiah 45

Cyrus, God’s Instrument
  1 “Thus says the LORD to His anointed,
      To Cyrus, whose right hand I have held—
      To subdue nations before him
      And loose the armor of kings,
      To open before him the double doors,
      So that the gates will not be shut:
       2 ‘ I will go before you
      And make the crooked places straight;
      I will break in pieces the gates of bronze
      And cut the bars of iron.
       3 I will give you the treasures of darkness
      And hidden riches of secret places,
      That you may know that I, the LORD,
      Who call you by your name,
      Am the God of Israel.
       4 For Jacob My servant’s sake,
      And Israel My elect,
      I have even called you by your name;
      I have named you, though you have not known Me.
       5 I am the LORD, and there is no other;
      There is no God besides Me.
      I will gird you, though you have not known Me,
       6 That they may know from the rising of the sun to its setting
      That there is none besides Me.
      I am the LORD, and there is no other;
       7 I form the light and create darkness,
      I make peace and create calamity;
      I, the LORD, do all these things.’
       8 “ Rain down, you heavens, from above,
      And let the skies pour down righteousness;
      Let the earth open, let them bring forth salvation,
      And let righteousness spring up together.
      I, the LORD, have created it.
       9 “ Woe to him who strives with his Maker!
      Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth!
      Shall the clay say to him who forms it, ‘What are you making?’
      Or shall your handiwork say, ‘He has no hands’?
       10 Woe to him who says to his father, ‘What are you begetting?’
      Or to the woman, ‘What have you brought forth?’”
       11 Thus says the LORD,
      The Holy One of Israel, and his Maker:

      “ Ask Me of things to come concerning My sons;
      And concerning the work of My hands, you command Me.
       12 I have made the earth,
      And created man on it.
      I—My hands—stretched out the heavens,
      And all their host I have commanded.
       13 I have raised him up in righteousness,
      And I will direct all his ways;
      He shall build My city
      And let My exiles go free,
      Not for price nor reward,”
      Says the LORD of hosts.

The LORD, the Only Savior    
14 Thus says the LORD:
      “ The labor of Egypt and merchandise of Cush
      And of the Sabeans, men of stature,
      Shall come over to you, and they shall be yours;
      They shall walk behind you,
      They shall come over in chains;
      And they shall bow down to you.
      They will make supplication to you, saying, ‘Surely God is in you,
      And there is no other;
      There isno other God.’”
       15 Truly You are God, who hide Yourself,
      O God of Israel, the Savior!
       16 They shall be ashamed
      And also disgraced, all of them;
      They shall go in confusion together,
      Who are makers of idols.
       17 But Israel shall be saved by the LORD
      With an everlasting salvation;
      You shall not be ashamed or disgraced
      Forever and ever.
       18 For thus says the LORD,
      Who created the heavens,
      Who is God,
      Who formed the earth and made it,
      Who has established it,
      Who did not create it in vain,
      Who formed it to be inhabited:

      “ I am the LORD, and there is no other.
       19 I have not spoken in secret,
      In a dark place of the earth;
      I did not say to the seed of Jacob,

      ‘ Seek Me in vain’;
      I, the LORD, speak righteousness,
      I declare things that are right.
       20 “ Assemble yourselves and come;
      Draw near together,
      You who have escaped from the nations.
      They have no knowledge,
      Who carry the wood of their carved image,
      And pray to a god that cannot save.
       21 Tell and bring forth your case;
      Yes, let them take counsel together.
      Who has declared this from ancient time?
      Who has told it from that time?
      Have not I, the LORD?
      And there is no other God besides Me,
      A just God and a Savior;
      There is none besides Me.
       22 “ Look to Me, and be saved,
      All you ends of the earth!
      For I am God, and there is no other.
       23 I have sworn by Myself;
      The word has gone out of My mouth in righteousness,
      And shall not return,
      That to Me every knee shall bow,
      Every tongue shall take an oath.
       24 He shall say,
      ‘ Surely in the LORD I have righteousness and strength.
      To Him men shall come,
      And all shall be ashamed
      Who are incensed against Him.
       25 In the LORD all the descendants of Israel
      Shall be justified, and shall glory.’”
