All of the forum rules apply, specifically:

Please refrain from using, In my opinion, or I think when posting, as this will weaken your statement.

KEEP the thread freindly, the main reason for this thread is to learn more about the two religions.

I am expecting response specially from our Christians friends..
 
nice thread......no one is talkin yet tho..but hehe..i is sure they will...any second now...im kiddin... i gotta say... quraan has never been changed bible has..quraan is a word from god..bible is not...(getting this thread goin)

p.s. too much of the word 'debate' ..lol ur thing under ur namee the siggy the avatar...the thread title.. the post.. loool
 
Hello,

I can give you already an idea on how this thread will end:

QUARAN will win, of course, it's a muslim forum. Same topic in a Christian forum, and the BIBLE will win. This thread, sooner or later will end up in bashing and will be closed by a mod. It's not the first time, a thread like this is opened.

my 2 cents

Peace
 
In the Quraan God told us there are 7 heavens. Does the Bible tell there are 9 heavens?? Does it consider the Garden of Eden to be a heaven too?
 
no the bible isnt and it also testifies to it. paul himself said in corinthians concerning marriage that he gives his own ruling, not something revealed to him from God. so that right there proves the bible isnt from god
 
i may be wrong, but i think graceseeker said that christians do not believe the bible was the word of God.
 
^^^ wow snakelegs...that is so... wierd.. nvm i isnt gonna say what i was about to say cuz then it wud make this thread a fight then moddy closes it then omari get mad then i get a neg rep and y'all hate me...lol... no it aint bout u tho..


p.s. yay i got this thread going
 
;D i don't give negative reps.
i won't fight because i don't have a position. if i was wrong about graceseeker, i know he'll set it straight.
 
I believe what Grace Seeker meant, and I agree, is that we do not believe the Bible to be some word for word literary work written by God and delivered by an angel. Christians believe the Bible to be written with divine inspiration, we simply do not believe it to be written by God.

Speaking for me personally, I don't imagine God as being in the book writing business.
 
I'll make this my only post in this thread.

Just wanted to note that your top is a false dichotomy. Quran or Bible, which is God's word?

My answer would obviously be neither of them are. That would be the answer of any non-christian + non-muslim.

Another possibility - could it be both? Do the two fundamentally conflict?

I agree with Keltoi's further explanation to Grace Seeker's original comment.

Christians do not believe the Bible to be God's directly dictated word (as Muslim's do with the Qu'ran). The Bible is the story/history of God's people and his message to us, written by many people over a long period of time - people who were (as Keltoi says) divinely inspired to do so.
In that sense I don't think there is any point in comparing the Bible and the Qu'ran at all.

I remember reading somewhere that the Bible is not God's revelation to us. God's revelation to us comes in the from of Jesus Christ, in his teachings, his life, his sacrifice and his resurrection.

As for the intentions of this thread to debate whether the Bible or the Qu'ran are God's word, I believe it to be quite pointless.
As Pygoscelis points out, we all have our own beliefs, and our personal reasons for having them.

If any of us had any real proof, there would only be one religion in existance. The fact alone that there are so many different religions and worldviews demonstrates that nobody has as yet come up with any proof ...

Peace
 
Salaam/peace;


Pygoscelis:Quran or Bible, which is God's word?

My answer would obviously be neither of them are


---show ur proof if u r truthful---this is a verse from Quran . Pl. show us some proof that Quran is not from God

but if the writers were inspired by God ,why it's wrong to say that Bible is God's word ??
 
I as a christian dont believe in the muslim prophets Muhammad's revelation and I dont see muslim holy book as the God's word.There are many reasons why i think like that.One of the reason is that Bible is much older than Quaran and in my opinion Muhammed just took some stories from Bible.Just like did many centuries after him fror example Joseph Smith who created mormonism.This is my opinion.

Hmm if thats ur view, then why are u not a jew? since the torah is much older than the bible, and the bilbe contains some of the torah?

It's not only about being older as I said.You said that Torah is older than Bible but tell me what is older than Old Testament since Old Testament is in Bible and in Torah? :).
BTW, for christians and for jews,important is also the rejection of revelation of muslim prohpet Muhammed.

yep as i said, part of the torah is in the bible (i.e old testament) but its kind of ironice, that for u its important to reject the revelation of our prophet(pbuh)(as u said) and for us muslims its vital to accept the fact that jesus(on whom be peace) and moses(on whom be peace) were given the revelation :)

there was a joke said about this, we believe in ur messenger, so if u go in heaven we will go to
but since u dont believe in our messenge,r and if we go to heaven(inshallah) u wont :)
