Repulsive verses in the bible

[aadil77]

Straight up Double standards

It is akhi, as we know the truth always prevails, we just need to look around to see that

 

[Pygoscelis]

It sure is, no reasonable explanation for something and they make it up themselves, then you end up with contradicting views from other christians

You just need to look the north americans and how seriously they take the WHOLE of the bible, they believe its the literal word of god

Whoooooooa! Hold on there! You speak of the bible belt, a part of the USA, not the whole USA, and certainly not Canada!

Greetings and peace be with you aadil77;

Philippians 4
4Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

The Bible has some wonderful verses too.

Every blessing

Thanks Eric I'm sure there are plenty, no one is denying that,

I don't know if you've read the Quran before but I believe all of it is wonderful, reading it in arabic is especially beautiful, you can understand that by just listening to a few verses

If you have the time please watch this video: Ar-Rahman - Chapter 56

I have only read parts of the Quran that are posted on this forum, and I watched the video, Ar-Rahman - Chapter 56. I liked the recitation, strangely enough, when I read other scriptures, it helps me to find another perception from the Bible.

Somehow the same God who created you, and gave you a faith through Islam, also created me and gave me a faith through Christianity. Only God can change either of us.

Despite all our differences, I believe that we should be working together, in acts of kindness, for the good of the community.

In the spirit of praying for a greater interfaith friendship and understanding

Our creators are the same, if you mean god without including Jesus (peace be upon him) and the holy spirit, but I don't believe god can change people, He can guide us and show us the right path then its up to us to make that decision - but for that we need to be sincere in our prayers and we should ask god alone for guidence

I commend your emphasis on interfaith relations, it is something lacking in society

With that, I'd like to leave you with the opening chapter of the Quran

christens use both testimates... not just one...

It is probably a good thing that post disappeared, it could be a sign that you should spend more of your time studying. These kind of posts are a distraction and will take up too much of your time and energy.

Get back to Studying NOW, IMMEDIATELY, AND NO MORE EXCUSSES FOR WASTING TIME.

In the spirit of praying for a greater help to study

wow eric you're so caring, now that is something I believe prophet Isa taught

 

[DancesWithChair]

I'll start off with the violent verses advocating murder
Ezekiel 9:5-7

The old testament is more or less a history of what went before. It’s not a set of instructions.

Christians follow the teachings of Christ. Where any teaching of Christ contradicts something in the old testament, the teachings of Christ will prevail.

The 10 commandments from the old testament do not contradict Christ’s teachings and so they are followed.

To me those verses incite terrorism, I can imagine them being used for the atrocities in Iraq, afghanistan and palestine.

Well, no because Christ taught love and so those verses cannot be used for anything.

So you don’t need to worry about the “repulsive verses” as you called them.

A christian who pretends to be an atheist and writes on an Islamic forum various forms of inaccurate historical drivel.. what do we call that Tartuffe? The weekday comedy bits?

 

[Snowflake]

The OT was replaced by the NT the same way the Quran replaced the Bible. I guess you should therefore clarify this thread to be directed to Jews not Christians.

You can't be serious. The OT was replaced by men whereas the Bible was replaced by the Word of God - Holy Quran. Big difference I think.

I guess the stealth crusaders like to put on a hat of a different color every time they spread their false information and lies.. In fact with so many pea brained folks in the world, I wonder if anyone bothers with academia and proper historical texts anymore.. but in the end they all know how to cry foul when busted.. disgusting gadflies only echo the need for hyper vigilance when educating the new generations properly!

Coincidently I was reciting Ali Imran this evening, and the following verses from the surah remind me of those stealth crusaders.

QS. 3: 69-72

A party of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) wish to lead you astray. But they shall not lead astray anyone except themselves, and they perceive not.

O People of the Scripture! Why disbelieve ye in the revelations of Allah, when ye (yourselves) bear witness (to their truth)?

O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians): "Why do you mix truth with falsehood and conceal the truth while you know?"
