HOW TO GET TO HEAVEN WHEN YOU DIE

[noshi11]

Because Jesus was alone and had no connection with the Father at the time.

But I thought that Jesus (PBUH) and the Father are one?

In Adam all humankind was tainted as we all stem from him. Sin entered Adams life. God told Adam he would die if he ate from the Tree of Knowledge. The spirit-link between God and mankind "died" or was broken when Adam transgressed.

Yes, we as Muslims also believe that we stem from Adam (PBUH). However, as far as the Islamic belief, Allah says in the Quran that He forgave Adam (PBUH) for his sin:

Then did Satan make them slip from the (Garden) and get them out of the state (of felicity) in which they had been. We said: "Get ye down all (ye people) with enmity between yourselves. On earth will be your dwelling place and your means of livelihood for a time." [size=2]Then learnt Adam from his Lord words of inspiration and his Lord turned toward him; for He is Oft-Returning Most Merciful. (Quran, 2: 36-37)[/size]

Hi, xfrodobagginsx

With all due respect, I have some questions for you.

1. Why did Jesus (PBUH) say, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" If he came to save our sins, than why would he need to make such a statements?

To fulfil prophecy written of Him hundreds of years earlier. He was speaking to the Father. God has three parts, Father, Son and Spirit. They are all one mind. Spirit sumits to the Son and the Son submits to the Father. They are all equal, yet have different roles. Jesus died for our sins. Since God is perfectly Holy, He cannot look upon sin. Jesus took yours and my sins upon Himself at that moment, which is why God turned His back on Him for that time. That's why Jesus said "My God, my God, why hast thou..."

Written hundreds of years earlier:

Ps 22:1 ¶ <> My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? {Aijeleth...: or, the hind of the morning} {helping...: Heb. my salvation}

Written of when He was on the cross:

Mt 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

1. We as Muslims believe that we are all born sinless. Do you think it's fair to say that we are to be blamed for the sin of Adam (PBUH) and Eve?

In a legal sense, we all sinned in adam because we were part of adam at that time.

1Co 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

God loves you so much that He sent His only Son to die for YOU, so that you don't have to go to hell. He loves you. He IS a personal God and I know Him. I wouldn't trade Him for the world. He brings peace to my soul.

1. If Jesus (PBUH) was God, than why can't he just forgive our sins?

He could, however, He has chosen to give us freewill to choose to serve Him or not. He wants us to choose to love Him, not force us. He is not a controlling God. He is very gentle, kind and personal. He pays attention to every detail of your life, but won't reveal Himself to you until you are willing to accept what Jesus did for you on the cross to pay for your sins.

What is the need for sacrafice if God is omnipotent?

Because God is Holy. He is absolutely perfect and sin is a crime against His holiness. In a legal sense, He MUST punish you and I for our sins. The only other way is for a person to come, live a perfect life and take our punishment for us. Since every person on earth is a sinner, noone can do that. So God sent His Son from heaven to take on human form. He became a human being out of love for us. He came to earth, lived a perfect life and took our punishment upon Himself.

1. If Jesus (PBUH) is born without a father, so was Adam (PBUH).

Jesus was concieved by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is God.

Mt 1:18 ¶ Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

1. Did Jesus (PBUH) directly say in the bible that he came to die for our sins?

Yes.

Mt 12:40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

Joh 10:15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.

Joh 10:17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.

Lastly, I don't understand why should someone sacrafice his life to have our sins forgiven. I believe that everyone should be responsible for their own sins.

Because in a legal sense, if Jesus didn't do that, every person ever born would have to go to hell. God's righteousness demands it. His mercy and love prompted Him to pay the price Himself.

Sorry, I know that I don't know your religion better than you, but this was just my two cents.

Peace

My answers are in bold above.

I would love to answer anything else that you may want to ask. The bible says that if you truly seek the truth, you will find it. You MUST be willing to believe what the Lord reveals to you, EVEN if it contradicts everything that you have believed in your life.

Lu 11:9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

Re: HOW TO GET TO HEAVEN WHEN YOU DIE

THE BIBLE IS GOD’S WORD

The bible was written by God through 40 men in 3 languages over a 1,500 year period. These men lived in different parts of the world, some were rich, some were poor, some were educated, some were not, most didn't know each other, nor did they have access to the other's writings and yet it fits together as if it were written by one person. It was written by God. It has no errors or contradictions. It is the Word of God. The bible is accurate in matters of Science, History, and all matters of life. There are countless prophecies which have been predicted and fulfilled perfectly in scripture. Many of these prophecies were written hundreds or even thousands of years before they were fulfilled.

Old Testament Prophecies Fulfilled by Jesus Christ, Messiah

---

ALL of these prophesies were made hundreds, sometimes
thousands, of years before Jesus Christ was born. Looking in the face of
how He literally fulfilled them all (plus hundreds more), it is an
impossibility that He is not Messiah, Saviour of the world. The ONLY
person...past, present or future...who could fulfill all these prophecies is
Jesus Christ. The prophecy is on the left side from the old testament written hundreds of years before Jesus Christ was born physically on this earth. The ones on the right are the fulfillment of that prophecy in the New Testiment hundreds of years later.

The verses on the left were written HUNDREDS of years before Jesus was born. They were fulfilled in the verses on the right in and through Jesus Christ.

THE BIBLE IS GOD’S WORD

The bible was written by God through 40 men in 3 languages over a 1,500 year period. These men lived in different parts of the world, some were rich, some were poor, some were educated, some were not, most didn't know each other, nor did they have access to the other's writings and yet it fits together as if it were written by one person. It was written by God. It has no errors or contradictions. It is the Word of God. The bible is accurate in matters of Science, History, and all matters of life. There are countless prophecies which have been predicted and fulfilled perfectly in scripture. Many of these prophecies were written hundreds or even thousands of years before they were fulfilled.

Old Testament Prophecies Fulfilled by Jesus Christ, Messiah

---

ALL of these prophesies were made hundreds, sometimes thousands, of years before Jesus Christ was born. Looking in the face of how He literally fulfilled them all (plus hundreds more), it is an impossibility that He is not Messiah, Saviour of the world. The ONLY person...past, present or future...who could fulfill all these prophecies is Jesus Christ. The prophecy is on the left side from the old testament written hundreds of years before Jesus Christ was born physically on this earth. The ones on the right are the fulfillment of that prophecy in the New Testiment hundreds of years later.

The verses on the left were written HUNDREDS of years before Jesus was born. They were fulfilled in the verses on the right in and through Jesus Christ.

Will God be out of business if nobody sins? If so, isn't it a service that sinners are doing to keep Him in business?

[FONT=Times New Roman]ARE YOU 100% SURE THAT IF YOU DIED TODAY THAT YOU WOULD GO TO HEAVEN? ** **[FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]There are some things that you should know: [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]1.** Realize that you are a sinner and in need of a Savior:** [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]Ro 3:23 "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]Ro 3:10 "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:" [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]This all began with the story of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden. God created them perfect, there was no death or sorrow. God told them not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. They disobeyed God and as a result, sin entered into the world. The pain which this world sees is the result of sin. [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]2. Because of our sins, we die both spiritually and physically, but God sent His Son to die so that you can have a chance not to have to go to hell by accepting what He did on the cross for you: [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]Ro 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]Ro 5:8 "But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. for us." [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]Every person who has ever lived is a sinner and is not righteous because we do bad things. A sin is a crime against God, just as if you steal something at the store, it is punishable by going to jail. It's the same thing with sin. Even if we lie one time, the punishment is hell, which is a prison for those who commit crimes against God. No matter how well you live your life from then on, you have already committed a sin which will be punished if you are not pardoned. If you commit a crime, and then live as a good citizen you still will go to jail for the crime you committed. Right? Just as the president can pardon a crime so you won't go to jail, Jesus can pardon your sins so that you do not go to hell, and can go to heaven when you die. [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]3.** If you will confess to Jesus Christ that you are a sinner and in need of a Savior, accept Him as Lord and Savior and believe in your heart that He died on the cross and rose from the dead you will be saved.** [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]Ro 10:9,10 "that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.." [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]Joh 1:12 Joh 1:12 “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name” [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]You cannot get to heaven by being a good person, going to church, baptism or any other way other than by turning to Jesus and asking Him to forgive you for your sins and save you. While these are good things to do, some people believe that they will get to heaven if they do these things, but the bible says that there is only one way to heaven and that is through receiving what Jesus Christ did on the cross for you. [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]Will you do that today? If you will, you can be 100% sure that you will go to heaven when you die. [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]Do you believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross and rose from the dead for your sins? Are you willing to turn from your sins to Jesus Christ for Salvation? [FONT=Times New Roman] ** [FONT=Times New Roman]4. If you are willing to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior please humble yourself before God and pray this prayer to Him from your heart:** [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]"Dear LORD JESUS, I believe that YOU died on the Cross and Rose from the dead for my sins. I ask you to come into my heart and forgive me for my sins, take me to heaven when I die. I now receive You as my Lord and Savior. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus holy name, Amen." [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]If you prayed that prayer from your heart to God, and meant it with all of your heart, you are now a child of God and will go to heaven when you die. [FONT=Times New Roman] [FONT=Times New Roman]Now that you are on your way to heaven, you should attend a bible believing church and follow in baptism.

This link provides the Aramaic pronunciation of the name of Jesus (AS).

As for the crucifixion … The idea of sin needing sacrifice is refuted many times with the concept of forgiveness. Please read up on such a concept in the Bible … read the Parable of the Prodigal Son.

healthymind bro … why must you make everything a “wahabi” issue … you have problems!!!

The concept of being 100% sure of most things is alien to Muslims. There were only a few people in our history who were given in their own life message of their destiny to be in Paradise. For the rest of us it suits our purpose NOT to know but only to be fairly confident that we will go to heaven, or else our surety could bite us making us conceited. We should never try to find and easy way out, but we NEED to observe the law.

The vast majority of the above points were NOT the words of Jesus (AS) they were words of Paul who allowed Gentiles to absolve most responsibilites from the Law, in favour of them to become Christ followers. But he had no authority to do that. The Cephas - Simon Peter was the true inheritor of the leadership of the followers of Issa (AS). His conflict with Paul is evident that Christianity was hijacked.

Heaven and hell are just states of mind and not physical locations. If you're a good person you are in heaven; you don't have to die for it

That is actually a misquote. Jesus (AS) only required people to believe he came in the flesh.

Re: HOW TO GET TO HEAVEN WHEN YOU DIE

It says "believe ON the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved" To Believe On Him means to place your faith in Him for salvation.

We must confess Him with our mouth as our Lord and Savior and believe in our heart that the Lord raised Him from the dead:

Ro 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved."

@Mirch

Explain this to me it is getting coufusing. If it is God's word then how come: "Bible was written by 40 men, in 3 different languages over a 1,500 year period, yet it fits together as one book. Many of these men didn't have access to the other's writings."

Think about what you're saying. If it were written by one guy, then it would be easy to make things up and make it fit together, if it were written by 40 people and most of them didn't know each other and lived in different parts of the world, that would be impossible to make up and have it fit together perfectly as it does. The fact is that God told them what to write and they wrote it down.

@SindSagar

…this is really a serious question…please answer carefully…

xfrodobagginsx Sir can you recall in detail the conversations you had with some one especially strangers or even friends say about one month ago?

So you expect us to believe in writings that describe events that happenned 300 yrs prior…or 1500 yrs as you say yourself…

:)…Gives the word “Far Fetched” a new meaning don’t you think!..

Back in the ancient days, they passed their information on orally. It was the cuture back then. They didn’t have t.v., radio, video games, ect. They did alot more talking. They didn’t have access to pen and parchment as much either, so they passed along information orally. Their memories were much greater than our memories because they used them much more often. The bible was written down by the first hand witnessess within the lifetimes of them. It was completed by A.D. 90 by John who walked with Jesus. Jesus died on the cross around A.D. 30-33. So the latest book that was completed was around 60 years after the event by the eyewitness who actually KNEW Jesus Christ and saw His miracles, heard His words, ect.

i dont think Muslims dispute the idea that Bible is God's word. However, the inaccuracies in it are a result of the numerous scribes inserting their own words, knowingly and unknowingly, into the scripture.

Merely the fact that many people are responsible for transmission and publication is not proof of divine status in its entirety. For example, Homer's poems were not written down for centuries, and many passages have doubt about who wrote what, whether or not they are indeed Homer's words. I think this is the nature of doubt Muslism have about the Bible.

There are no inaccuracies in the bible, that's not true. This can be proven by the dead sea scrolls. They compared the dead sea scrolls to the currently used manuscripts and they matched perfectly. The dead sea scrolls were 1,500 years older than the oldest existing manuscripts and yet they still matched without ANY errors. The only differences found were in the spelling of certain words that still meant the same thing. These differences were merely the result of cultural changes in the way that they spell certain words. God's word (the bible) has been preserved.

They are not just spelling mistakes. Most are spelling/grammar/otherwise inconsquential mistakes, quite a few however are important for doctrinal reasons. I suggest the book by Bart Ehrman, Misquoting Jesus. Quoting an article on the book:

The Bible simply wasn’t error-free. The mistakes grew exponentially as he traced translations through the centuries. There are some 5,700 ancient Greek manuscripts that are the basis of the modern versions of the New Testament, and scholars have uncovered more than 200,000 differences in those texts.

“Put it this way: There are more variances among our manuscripts than there are words in the New Testament,” Ehrman summarizes.

Most of these are inconsequential errors in grammar or metaphor. But others are profound. The last 12 verses of the Gospel of Mark appear to have been added to the text years later – and these are the only verses in that book that show Christ reappearing after his death.

Another critical passage is in 1 John, which explicitly sets out the Holy Trinity (the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit). It is a cornerstone of Christian theology, and this is the only place where it is spelled out in the entire Bible – but it appears to have been added to the text centuries later, by an unknown scribe.

For a man who believed the Bible was the inspired Word of God, Ehrman sought the true originals to shore up his faith. The problem: There are no original manuscripts of the Gospels, of any of the New Testament.

He wrote a tortured paper at Princeton that sought to explain how an episode in Mark might be true, despite clear evidence to the contrary. A professor wrote in the margin:

“Maybe Mark just made a mistake.”
