BOTH Muslim & Christian :o|

[Amadeus85]

Oddly, I would say that if Christianity were truly followed, the people who call themselves Christian would be calling themselves Muslim as Jesus(as) brought the same message that was revealed to Muhammad(PBUH) Jesus(as) revealed it for the people of his place and time.

I have a question for you- how many Jews did Isa ( the muslim one from Quaran) achieved to convert to islam and are there any historical references about that ?

The true Apostles of Jesus(as) did submit to the will of Allah(swt) . Since they were submitting to the true God(swt) they were Muslims. So count the true apostles, desciples and true followers of Jesus(as) and you will know how many Jews followed him into Islam. (Surrender to God(swt))

Jesus(as) never followed Christianity, he was not a Christian. He was a true Believer and sumitted to God(swt) and to no other God(swt) He followed and taught the path of Islam.

Do jewish historical documents say about muslim Isa or about Jesus Christ ?
Do jewish sources mention about the converts to new monotheistic faith islam after muslim Isa death?
Do any other ( roman?) sources say about muslim Isa and converts to islam among Jews?

The historical answer is no. The only Roman elusion to Christ comes from Tacitus, who states that a "Messiah of the Jews" was crucified and that the region was troubled. I believed he referred to Christ as "Christus", and then goes on to blame Christian converts for the fire in Rome.

Interesting...this article about a person combining Islam and Christianity is getting the same reaction from both Muslims and Christians.

I don't think you can be truly christian or truly muslim like this

Agreed the person would be of one than the other and the would they have the most belief in would negate the possibility of being the other. At least in todays definition of Christianity.

I'm always amused when people refer to "today's version" of Christianity, as if the core principles of Christianity were somehow altered during the days of the early church. Ask for some form of proof, you are given links to Arianism, a heresy. Ask for more, they point to the Council of Nicaea, as if this group of church leaders suddenly decided to change the core principles of Christianity in order to please Constantine or some such nonsense.

The reason you cannot be a Muslim and a Christian at the same time is because of Jesus Christ. No believing Christian can accept Christ and the teachings of Muhammed at the same time. It simply isn't possible. The core doctrine of Christianity has always been, and will always be, that Jesus Christ was and is God incarnate, and that His death and Resurrection paved the way to eternal salvation. Any belief that deviates from that core principle is not Christianity, was not Christianity, and never will be Christianity. Other than that, both faiths have alot to agree on.

See you're confused , you're to hung up on the word "islam" maybe Eesa (peace be upon him) didn't use that word, but Islam is the path he preached. And the jewish documents don't deny that, and the bible doesn' deny that, it's only the priest and reverants and such who make their own religion of it and deny that.

Greetings, Steve

It occurs to me that you can replace the word Islam with Christianity in your post and make a good Christian argument (one that has been had in other threads before now):

"See you're confused , you're to hung up on the word "Christianity". Maybe Jesus didn't use that word, but Christianity is the path he preached. And the jewish documents don't deny that, and the bible doesn't deny that, it's only the imans and reverants and such who make their own religion of it and deny that ..."

You know...that is an interesting idea. I have never heard it presented that way.

It is hard to argue with service to the poor, forgiveness, love of your fellow man...etc etc. There are more than a few parallels between Islam and Christianity.

Put together the Muslim concept of surrender to God and the Christian idea of forgiveness and service to the poor (of any description) and we might have a nicer world. Of course, nobody would want to be lawyers and CEO's
