This is not accurate you have merely given your interpretation of the Bible, which is itself an interpretation of the 'eye-witnesses' you know so little about. From the Bible alone more Islam can be derived than Christianity and one major point is the Oneness of God.
It's not merely my opinion. It's a fact that the bible was written by the eyewitnessess. Peter, James, John, Matthew, were disciples of Jesus Christ. They lived with Him and went EVERYWHERE that He did. I think that they would know more about Him than you or Mohommad. Paul would know more about Him than you or Mohammad since he was called by God and he taught side by side with the disciples of Jesus Christ. They accepted him as one having authority. He saw Jesus Christ, performed miracles as well as the apostles. God proved their authority by performing miracles through them. God is one God as the bible says, yet He has three parts.
I do understand what was written before. I am not saying that any errors exist in the Bible at this stage. What I am saying is that you must justify why you interpret the Bible so awkwardly. The true Bible also was not written it was taught as a spoken message through the mouth of Jesus (AS). In the Bible it says that Jesus (AS) taught the gospels. Well if he taught the gospels it could not have been the book that narrated that fact. The people who wrote the Bible also were not eye-witnesses because they said themselves that they spoke to eye-witnesses. Besides I am not talking about errors in the text. Not at this stage. Firstly, I want to show you that there are better and more accurate meanings that can be understood from the Biblical text when you remove the bias from the theological angle and read it as a plain script. Here are some examples that you have given:
You need to do your research. The New Testiment was written in large part by the very disciples who walked with Jesus for 3 1/2 years. They lived with Him. Paul was called by Jesus very soon after His ascention to heaven. He was accepted by the very disciples who walked with Jesus and wrote much of the New Testiment as from God and taught with them. I can show you plain script that Jesus Christ is God, that He died on the cross and rose from the dead and that you must place your faith in Him as your Lord and Savior in order to be saved from eternal hell. The "gospel" simply means "good news". The good news is that there is a Savior that has come to mankind to save them from their sins. It's Jesus Christ. His sacrifice on the cross paid for yours and my sins. That's the LOVE that Jesus has for you and I. The Lord is a personal God. He wants and seeks a relationship with you and I and everyone else that He has created.
In John 3:16 there are versions of this text that do not use the word begotten, also it is understood that the term 'son' can stil mean 'a servant' or 'someone dear and close'. So your quote can be understood in context to Oneness of God.
We have to look at the actual greek and not the translation that we would like to believe now don't we. We can't simply try to create doctrines based upon the translation that we would like to believe. The KJV is the most widely accepted translation of the bible by far of any version of the bible by ALL Christain denominations. It calls Him the only begotten. Even without that verse, it's very easy to show that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, God in the flesh. Don't kid yourself. You saw all of those verses I listed. Did you read them? There's hundreds of them.
1 John 5:12 - This is another statement that can easily be taken in the metaphoric sense. To 'have the son' does not mean that we have a person in our possession rather it means we believe in him, it does not have to mean that we believe in him to be God, but rather to be sent by God. Simple isn't it? This way the compatibility with the Old Testament remains in tact.
Who is the one who is not taking the text for what it says and is trying to twist it. You are making this up out of thin air. No where in the bible does it say what you just said. It clearly calls Him the Son of God and the pharasees wanted to kill Him because He claimed to be God in the flesh and actually, they did kill Him.
1 John 5:10 - To believe in the 'son of God' is the same as saying to 'bear witness' it is a belief requirement to believe in God, and to believe that Jesus (AS) is the agent of God. There is nothing more that needs to be understood from these verses.
Read Matthew, Mark, Luke and John the very beginning gives you a story of How Jesus was concieved. The Holy Spirit (God's Spirit) came upon Mary and she concieved Jesus Christ. He is God's Son, the Son of God. Honestly, you don't see that?
This whole paragraph is taken directly from the writings of people like Aquinas and Athanasius they are not direct from the Bible but acquired statements through some sort of interpretation. Jesus (AS) was a Muslim in the Bible because he says so.
He absolutely does NOT say that EVER. I challenge you to show me where Jesus says He is a muslim.
He says that he is subservient to the Will of God. He never asks for worship and instead himself worships God.
*Oh really? *
Thomas realized that He had risen from the dead and called Him "my Lord and my God" Jesus didn't rebuke Him for it.
Joh 20:27 Then He said to Thomas, "Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and reach your hand here, and put it into My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing." And Thomas answered and said to Him, "My Lord and my God!"
Jesus knows all things. Only God knows all things:
Joh 21:17 He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?" Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, "Do you love Me?" And he said to Him, "Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You." Jesus said to him, "Feed My sheep.
All things were made by Jesus:
Joh 1:3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.
Jesus is from everlasting (He had no beginning)
Mic 5:2 "But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, Though you are little among the thousands of Judah, Yet out of you shall come forth to Me The One to be Ruler in Israel, Whose goings forth are from of old, From everlasting."
Jesus is the Father:
Isa 9:6 For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Jesus Christ is God.
Again Mr baggins ... this is a statement which is your belief not what your scriptures say.
I just gave you many scriptures, I can give many more. You gave none to support your arguement.
I too believe that Jesus (AS) will rule over the world, but he will recognise Muslims and reject people who call him God.
Wrong. According to Jesus He will reject those who don't have a personal relationship with Him. You must believe who He says He is, which is God. The koran directly contradicts the bible, so you can't believe both.
In the Old testiment, God called Himself I AM to moses. Jesus was saying that HE was the I AM of the Old Testiment, that HE is GOD.
Joh 8:58 Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM."
Mt 7:23 "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'
Muslims call Jesus (AS) sayyiduna which means lord and we believe he will save us from our predicament, which means he is saviour, but we do not believe that our sins are taken by him in any way, because that would be an injustice to good people and it would also conflict with the Old Testament.
Then you don't believe the bible when it says of Jesus:
Joh 1:29 ¶ The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, "Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!
Yes ... I agree Jesus (AS) was the figurative son of God,
He is the LITERAL Son of God, and the LITERAL Son of man.
and these verses all show this. But which verse shows categorically that Jesus (AS) can only be a literal son of God? Here is why Jesus (AS) cannot be the literal son of God:
The verses that say that He was concieved of the Holy Ghost.
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.
Mt 1:20 But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
1) God does not die - Jesus according to the Bible authors died (but they were really deluded, just like it says in Mt 4:6 - the angels saved him, and then in John 3:14 it says that he (Jesus) will be lifted up, so he was saved)
Not so. When it says that He will be lifted up, He meant that He would be lifted up on the cross to DIE for yours and my sins. You couldn't have read the bible if you don't believe this. It clearly says that He died on the cross and rose from the dead. Do you really deny that the bible says this?
2) God is not born - Jesus (AS) was born
It doesn't say that God is not born in the bible.
3) God does not have absence in knowledge - Jesus (AS) had to ask who touched him from behind.
Jesus knew who touched Him. To ask a question does not mean that He didn't already know the answer. He was wanting the person to give the answer.
4) God does not become powerless - Jesus (AS) when he was touched his power went to the one who touched him and also if he was crucified he was in a state of powerlessness
He gave up His life WILLINGLY, NOT helplessly. He could have come down from the cross at any moment, but He willingly gave up His life for you and I.
5) God does not eat or drink - Jesus (AS) ate and drank
Where does it say that God does not eat or drink in the bible?
Anyway the point is that there are more ways to interpret the Bible that you believe to be letter perfect ... even if I agree with you that it is perfect ... how can you demonstrate that your understanding of it is perfect?
There is only one correct way to interpret the bible. You need the Holy Spirit to help you understand it. Even so, I don't claim to know everything, but some passages are crystal clear, with no hidden meanings. Jesus is God and God in the flesh, there is no room for interpretation on that.
