I See you all woner wat sins are unforgiven to your God? I am new to the muslim faith and i dont ever intend to follow it. I am a firm believer in Christ Jesus, and that he was the son of God and the saviour to all men.
Im sure most of you know the basis of christianity, we believe our God is the true living God as do you, and that our God is all perfect and sinless, that he cannot look upon sin, guess what man sinned! Oh no boy are we in trouble? going agaisnt an all mighty God who quite frankly, alough he is loving and merciful, has to punish. But God said to himself, i dont want to punish them because they fall, so he sent Jesus Christ, his only begotten son (John 3:16), that whoever believed in his name, should not perish but have everlasting life.
Now this makes sense to me, but this is not why i choose to follow christ, i like the story of superman but i dnt follow him, i decided to follow christ when he called me and i felt that supernatural feeling as accepting him as my lord and saviour and the son of God, Now any1 can say what they want about God or Jesus, about if they exsist, or who they really were, but no1 can ever take away the feelings and emotions Jesus has given me over my time as a christian, no1 can take away my testimony.
So anyway back to the point, if a man rapes a woman, shud the court say, ""there is no punishment for this crime if u say u will repent from it"" no! thats not acceptable, the man should be punished. So what i am asking is, does allah punish sin? if he does, we are all in big trouble and hes not a merciful God, but if he doesnt, ow can a God so good look upon unclean souls as us men? Jesus paid the punishment, My God loves me, and every1 of you, despite what u believe, forgive me for preaching. Take care! :-)
Sorry my friend, I gave several examples. We are going round in circles here and I feel its too much effort to move forward. That's enough for me! Bye & good luck
But can i suggest Paul, in future it would be better to back up what u say about faults in the bible. It will save people doubting what u have claimed, when you decide to stop the convo when asked about it :-)
yes well so far i have learned a geat deal on this forum, but ive been on every yopic nealry lol, i am learnign to study the bible more and i am finding out more and more and its awsome
so break down for me what new things you have learnt Sean.
I might learn something
Well when i first came on, i had not checked what i had been taught, and it proved to be wrong, so firstly i learned to check things for insitnce in the bible before making a point.
Secondly, i have learned to not check for truth in what im saying, but study Gods word for even more truth about topics.
Thirdly, if someone has come with me with a question, at first i think wait a minute they could be right, then i pray for an answer, and not yet has a question gone unanswered.
Since i started communicating with atheists, and muslims and evoltionists, it challenged my faith, questions ad been asked of me i thought would be impossible to answer, but answers have been given in one way or another. So through this forum and through the past few months looking into other believes, i have learned alot, and came through a stronger christian than i have even been.

Christianity is the religion of the "Word" of God, a word which is "not a written and mute word, but the Word is incarnate and living".73 If the Scriptures are not to remain a dead letter, Christ, the eternal Word of the living God, must, through the Holy Spirit, "open [our] minds to understand the Scriptures.""

This the exact thing us Sikhs believe of our scriptures
Ėk Gusā Alhu Mėrā
The One Lord, the Lord of the World, is my God Allah.
Dhan Guru Arjan Dev Mahraaj Ji!
Kal Meh Bėḏ Atharbaṇ Hū Nā Kẖuḏā Alhu Bẖa.
In the Dark Age of Kali Yuga, the Atharva Veda became prominent; Allah became the Name of God.

Why did G-d create us with closed minds?
The path is long but I hope we meet,
After the grave and the Day, in paradise in bliss upon a reclined seat.
A traveler traveling - travelled from shirk to tawheed,
If I'm remembered for anything - let it be the Mercy I seek.
