...why do you think the Jewish Pharisees wanted to kill him?
"If you have seen me Philip, you have seen the Father".-Jesus
"I and my Father are one". - Jesus
Muslims refuse to believe what Jesus said about Himself and then have the audacity to say he was a prophet.
Doesn't that sound very hypocritical to you?
Would a prophet lie?
Muslims refuse to believe Jesus died on the cross; they reject even the most basic historical facts.....like for ex., that jesus was a Jew....well, i guess you can figure out why Muslims don't want to admit Jesus was a Jew!
Is for the SAME reason Arafat said, "the holocoast never happened".
What a bunch of anti-Jewish bigots.

Exactly, if you read the new testament you will plainly see numerous verses showing that Jesus was God. Intelligent Muslims know this and in retalliation claim that the New Testament was changed from its original form. However the Old Testament also has many prophecies concerning Jesus and his divinity, so now Muslims are taught that the entire Bible is corrupted simply because they are different. This is a very poor argument because the earliest discovered manuscripts of the Bible do not show any major difference! They have no proof, but will still assure you that they are right

Yes,
The Jews wanted to stone Jesus because He claimed to be God.
John 8:57-59
"You are not yet fifty years old," the Jews said to him, "and you have seen Abraham!"
"I tell you the truth," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!"
At this, they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds.
...........................................
The Muslims are easily offended when someone has a different viewpoint about their prophet, yet they speak against "The Most High God" and think nothing of it!
The denial about what is really from God and what is not just amazes me!
Jesus "Never Sinned",
Muhammed robbed caravans for a living and was a "Child Molester"!

Can you imagine a 54 year old man having a sexual relationship with a 9 year old child?
Would Jesus condone that?

To XXangelchiXX
Use this reasoning;
Jesus has power to rise from the dead!. His bones are absent from the grave!
If angelchixx told a dead person to rise and then they rose , then I'm going to listen to angelchixx!
Jesus said that If we believed in Him that we could lay our hands on the sick and they would be healed!
Me and my friends lay our hands in prayer on the sick and the sick are healed!
Even terminal cancer has been healed with doctor's confirmation by the Power of Jesus who always was and still is!

Actually he didn't claim to be God, He calimed to be AS God. You see, when he said about him and his father being as one, it was in purpose and manner. As God created man in his image is in purpose and manner, because God is spirit (John 4:24).
Jesus Christ could not be God because God is spirit and no man has seen God at any time.
Jesus Christ represented God, as an ambassador represents his country. As an employee represents his company. People may never have been to the country that the ambassador represents so they will base their opinions of it on the ambassadors words, actions and lifestyle.
So it was with Christ. When he said those who have seen him have seen the father it was a reference to his lifestyle representing God's will.

Muslims believe that early Christians lied, not Jesus. They believe that his prophesy was distorted. So they are not being hypocritical. And they do believe that he was a Jew, and that he was martyred on the cross for pointing out the corruption of the Jewish priests.

For one thing, u haven't given the verse no when Jesus said that. U have just written -Jesus.
In the New Testament of the Bible, in the fourth chapter of the Gospel according to Matthew, the sixth and seventh verses clearly indicate that Jesus is an obedient mortal and God is the Master and Lord according to his saying in the seventh verse:
“It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord, thy God”
In this chapter we read that the Devil carried the Messiah, and took him from place to place. How can the Devil carry God? Then the Devil orders him to prostrate before him and worship him, even tempting him with worldly possessions. How can the Devil even dare such an audacity with God? When the Devil wanted Jesus to comply with his orders, he (Jesus) replied by saying that it was written (in the previous Books):
“Thou shalt worship the Lord, thy God; And Him only Shalt thou serve” - Matthew 4:10
“But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your master, even Jesus, and all ye are brethren” Matthew 23:8
Matthew 14:32 – “And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray……”
“But that day and hourh knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only” Matthew 23: 9
So it proves that he is not God? Because if Jesus is God or a part of God, than whey did he pray? Prayer is always from a submitting, needy and dependent one for the Mercy of Almighty. N as the verse Matthew 23:9 shows, Jesus knowledge is imperfect like all other men.
Jesus never called himself ‘Son of God’ as far as I know – but he used to call himself the ‘Son of Man’ (Mark 2:10) although he heard himself being called by that name he did not object – as assumed in the Bible – and did not consider the title exclusively for him. According to the Biblical term in the Old and New Testaments, every God-fearing righteous person is called ‘Son of God’. Matthew 5:9 – “Blessed are the peace-makers, for they shall be called the children of God”.
“And behold, one came and said unto him, ‘Good master, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?” And he said unto him,Matthew 19:16-17..................
1)The Bible testifies to the fact that Jesus was known among the Jews; he used to preach and deliver sermons in the Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem. It was therefore unnecessary to hire a Jew for thirty pieces of silver to direct them to him as related in Matthew
2)It is related that one of the twelve disciples named Judas Iscaroit was hired to direct the Jews to Jesus. They then sentenced him after which Judas was greatly ashamed and dissociated himself from their act and then committed suicide. All this took place within 24hrs. The contradictions are obvious.
The clearest proof which alone is sufficient to discredit this story is when the Jews passed the sentence of death against Jesus and intended to get the approval of the governor, Pontius Pilate. The Christians interpret Matthew 27:11-14 to mean that Jesus wanted to die on the Cross of the redemption of mankind and for the forgiveness of their sins. If so, than why did he ask to turn away that cup from his (i.e.death) which is shown in Matthew 26:39 ? Why did he cry out while on the Cross (as all Christians) assume: “O Lord, why hast Though Forsaken me? Matthew 27: 46? How could he have remained silent when the truth was being challenged? He was known for his soul-inspiring
He was known for his soul-inspiring sermons challenging the learned Jewish Rabbis. No sane person can believe this if they stop and think about it!!! N anyway, if Matthew 27:46 is really true, than this is a blatant declaration of disbelief according to all theological authorities. Whoever relates it to a Prophet is a disbeliever according to all the revealed religions.
there u r. now u know why I don't believe Jesus was crucified

Jesus claimed to be God because He was God. He was not a prophet, He was God in human form.
