There are several things that Muslems do not take into account.
2 Peter 1:20- interpreting Scripture is not a matter of one's own private interpretation. Therefore, it must be a matter of "public" interpretation of the Church.
2 Peter 3:16 - the Scriptures are difficult to understand and can be distorted by the ignorant to their destruction. God did not guarantee the Holy Spirit would lead each of us to infallibly interpret the Scriptures. But this is what Muslems must argue in order to support their butchering of the Scriptures. "Bible only" Christians have to argue the same thing because that is where the Muslems learned it from.
If Christians treated the Qu'ran the same way Muslems treat the Scriptures, according to the Qu'ran, they would be justified in killing Christians for it.
But Christians have to be prepared to take up that cross. It is only by self-sacrifice that the world of Islam will ever be converted. Much like the self-sacrifice of the early church (martyrs) that led to the conversion of pagan Rome.
Raw power v.s. self-sacrifice. Think about it.

Take one verse, pick it apart to suit your need, and then try to make it out to something it is not. THAT is the foolishness of man. You have to look at more than just that verse, back up and read...
18For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
19For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
20Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
21For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
22For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
23But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
24But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
25Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
It is pretty simple here. The Jews looked for a miracluous sign, the Greeks looked for wisdom. God can clearly make the wisest man on earth appear foolish. No, it is not calling anyone nor God fools, it is showing the infinite wisdom of the Creator! The Greeks looked at things as foolishness and in saying so called God foolish, that being so, Paul clearly was sayinig that if God were foolish, the wisest of men could come nowhere close to approaching even that!
Now it's your turn. Tell us all about muhammed and the allah he found in a trash heap of idols. Don't want that story told? Look toward the bottom of this page.....

Yes I do. you want book and verse?
1Co 1:25

Chew on this.
If this is true, and the Bible is the Foolishness that is descussed here. What does that say about the world today and the polythiest and athiest that are trying to debunk it.
they are ooooohhhhh soo wise, let us listen to them
NOT
