Is it probable the Koran is the Bible re-written? Does a counterfiet ever precede the real thing?

Question

the prophet (pbuh) could not validate the writings of the Koran since he could not read or write. To justify the Koran Muslims believe the angel Gabriel confirmed the correctness of the Holy Koran. For me, this is not reasonable to assign an angel a task that is a "human" task. Authenticating sacred writings is not what angels were created to do.

Concerning whether or not the Bible or Koran is the forgery as I said a forgery NEVER precedes the real thing. No one can disprove that the companions of the prophet (pbuh) came in possession of a Bible. With the trade industry the mixing of cultures and versatility of languages among traders make it highly probable that there were cutural exchanges all the time.

I give credit to the prophet (pbuh) for revealing to Arabs the truth of One God and history of the prophets (pbut) dating back to Adam (pbuh) when the Arabs were polythiestic and idol worshipers.

FACT: THE QUR'AAN CAME INTO EXISTENCE CENTURIES AFTER THE BIBLE AND TORA. People who believe in it seem to think a counterfeit comes before the original. Islamic believers cannot validate the claim that the Bible is the counterfeit because the Bible's existence preceded the Qur'aan.

FACT: THE QUR'AAN TESTIFIES ABOUT ONE TRUE GOD (ALLAH) AND HIS PROPHETS. These truths were in the Bible and Torah long before the Qur'aan. This fact reveals that the Qur'aan is not the first writtings about God and his prophets and suggests that the Qur'aan is not authentic but a forgery.

FACT: IT WAS WRITTEN BY THE ASSOCIATES OF MUHAMMAD (pbuh). Muhammad could not read nor write. Therefore, Muhammad could not verify the validity of the holy book.

FACT: THE QUR'AAN's EXISTENCE WAS AFTER THE TECHNOLOGY OF WRITTING WAS INVENTED. Believer's of the Qur'aan and Islam think the errors in the Bible prove it is not the Word of Allah. Nothing is further from the truth.

The technology of writing didn't exist in the time when stories of salvation history were unfolding. So, naturally there are errors since the oral tradition existed before the invention of writing.

The Bible is not 100% accurate but, there are some things to take into consideration before declaring the Bible an invalid source to believe in. You ask a lot of good questions.

There are some problems with the Bible and errors. Please remember, the Old Testament was passed down by oral tradition before the technology of writing was available. Compared to the Quran which existed long after the technology for writing was invented. So, yes there are grammatical errors.

Secondly, there are different ways to interpret based upon the "literary forms" of writers. Depending whether it is in a historical context, prophetic, poetry, or some other type of literary form. I believe Jesus Christ IS THE WORD of God. The Bible is written by people inspired by God.

If you took a Bible course and discovered what SCRIPTURAL TYPOLOGY is you would be amazed. If you knew what SALVATION HISTORY was in the Bible you would understand. If you recognized DIVINE AUTHORITY you would know that there has to be someone in authority to reveal the "secret" truths God has given. If you research all those phrases you will begin a journey of discovery that will last a life time.

We have a saying in Catholicism: the New Testament is hidden in the Old and the Old is revealed in the New. There are many mysteries contained in the Bible that I have been amazed at discovering for the past 20 years and there is a whole lot more. St. Jerome said: Ignorance of Scripture is ignorance of Christ. The whole Bible is about our SALVATION: Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ fulfilled over 300 prophesies in the Old Testament about the Messiah you can discover 50 of them in cd's IT IS WRITTEN.

WHEN YOU HAVE BEGUN TO DISCOVER THESE THINGS YOU WILL KNOW IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE BEEN WRITTEN BY MAN WITHOUT INSPIRATION FROM GOD. Jesus (a historical figure along with others in the Bible that are not fictitional characters) by fulfilling just 50 prophesies makes the odds of doing that 10X135 power! An astronomical figure that could not have been achieved by human means.

Answer 1

Is there proof for the inspiration of the Bible?





Question: "Is there proof for the inspiration of the Bible?"



Answer: Here are some evidences that the Bible is from God:



1) Fulfilled prophecy. God spoke to men telling them of things that He would bring about in the future. Some of them have already occurred. Others have not. For example, there were more than 300 prophecies concerning Jesus Christ's first coming 2,000 years ago. There is no doubt that these are prophecies from God because of manuscripts and scrolls dated before the birth of Christ. These were not written after the fact. They were written beforehand. Scientific dating proves this.



2) The unity of Scripture. The Bible was written by approximately 40 human authors over a period of approximately 1,600 years. These men were quite diverse. Moses, a political leader; Joshua, a military leader; David, a shepherd; Solomon, a king; Amos, a herdsman and fruit pincher; Daniel, a prime minister; Matthew, a tax collector; Luke, a medical doctor; Paul, a rabbi; and Peter, a fisherman. The Bible was also written under a variety of circumstances. It was written on 3 different continents, Europe, Asia, and Africa. Yet, the great themes of Scripture are maintained in all the writings. The Bible does not contradict itself. There is no way apart from God the Holy Spirit supervising the writing of the Bible that this could have been accomplished.



Contrast this with the Islamic Koran. It was compiled by one individual, Zaid bin Thabit, under the guidance of Mohammed's father-in-law, Abu-Bekr. Then in A.D. 650, a group of Arab scholars produced a unified version and destroyed all variant copies to preserve the unity of the Koran. The Bible was unified from the time of its writing. The Koran had to be unified through the editing of men.



3) The Bible presents its heroes truthfully with all of their faults and weaknesses. It does not glorify men as other religions do about their heroes. When you read the Bible, you realize that the people it speaks of have problems and do wrong just as we do. What made them great was that they trusted in God. One example is David. David is described as a man after God's own heart (1 Samuel 13:14). Yet, David committed adultery (2 Samuel 11:1-5) and murder (2 Samuel 11:14-26). This could have been left out of Scripture to hide these details of David's life. But, God included these things.



4) Archaeological findings support the history recorded in Scripture. Though many unbelieving people throughout history have tried to find archaeological evidence to disprove what is recorded in Scripture, they have failed. It is easy to say that Scripture is untrue. Proving it to be untrue is a different story. It has not been done.



The Bible’s claims of being from God should not be understood as arguing in a circle or by circular reasoning. The testimony of reliable witnesses - particularly of Jesus, but also of others such as Moses, Joshua, David, Daniel, and Nehemiah in the Old Testament, and John and Paul in the New Testament - affirmed the authority and verbal inspiration of the Holy Scriptures. Consider the following passages: Exodus 14:1; 20:1; Leviticus 4:1; Numbers 4:1; Deuteronomy 4:2; 32:48; Isaiah 1:10, 24; Jeremiah 1:11; Jeremiah 11:1–3; Ezekiel 1:3; 1 Corinthians 14:37; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Peter 1:16–21; 1 John 4:6.



You also might be interested in the writings of Josephus. He was an historian who recorded much of the history of Israel during the first century. In this he records some events which coincide with Scripture. Beware though - his writings are rather lengthy.



Considering the evidence given, I have no choice but to accept the Bible as being from God (2 Timothy 3:16). I pray this information helps you and adequately answers you question. Keep Studying the Word! 2 Timothy 2:15

The Bible is the bestseller of all time. It is the book most read and studied, and it is the most controversial book on the earth today. Some say that it is the Word of God, while others question the validity of that claim. There are many reasons for us to believe that it is the Word of God. We would like to present a few of the key reasons here and invite you to read with an open mind and make your own conclusion.

Four Criteria for Identifying the Word of God
God created man and wanted to communicate with man, it is reasonable that He would do so through a book, something unchangeable and understandable to man. Such a book would have to meet a few requirements. It would have to identify God as its source; its standard of morality would have to match God's standard of morality, which would have to exceed the highest moral standards of mankind; it would have to reveal God and His purpose for creating mankind; and it would have to be widely available. Our first reason for believing that the Bible is the Word of God is that it satisfies all the above criteria.

Three Books Claim Divine Authorship
There are only three major books that claim divine authorship - the Bible, the Koran, and the book of Mormon. All other books can be eliminated from consideration immediately.

The Bible Has the Highest Moral Tone
The moral tone of the Bible is clearly higher than that of the other two, matching God's love and righteousness. Both the Koran and the Book of Mormon allow polygamy. Only the Bible promotes the idea of one husband to one wife. Not only does the Bible condemn divorce, but it even condemns lusting after another in the heart as adultery. In addition, only the Bible teaches that hating others in the heart is like committing murder (because murder comes out of a heart full of hatred). It teaches not only to not hate one's enemies, but also to love them. Only the Bible portrays the highest standard of love, a love completely free of all self-interest, jealousy, and pride. A society that truly follows the Bible is guaranteed to have love, oneness, peace, and rest.

The Bible Reveals God and His Purpose with Man
The Bible reveals God, who He is, what He intends to do, the origin of man, and God's purpose in creating man. Neither the Koran nor the Book of Mormon indicate a clear purpose for man; in these books the relationship between God and man is merely that of Creator and creature, of Judge and defendant, with the "good" ones being rewarded in the hereafter. The Bible, however, reveals that God created man as a vessel to contain Him as life so that man may express Him in His divine attributes and represent Him to rule over the earth. Thus, it reveals not only God's creation of man but also God's desire to live in man so that man may live in Him, resulting in an absolute oneness of God with man. No other book reveals God and His purpose with man.

The Bible Is the Most Available Book
Finally, the Bible is the book most available to man. All or portions have been translated into approximately two thousand languages. In 1989, 600 million copies were sent out to a world population of 5.5 billion. The Bible has virtually saturated the world. This is because it is the book of God's communication to man. People all over the world now have an opportunity to read it and to know God.

Fulfilled Prophecies Prove the Bible
Our second reason for believing that the Bible is the Word of God is that so far all of its prophecies have been fulfilled. Teachings, reasonings, ethics, and the like are subjective and can be easily written by anybody. However, if any book contains hundreds of predictions of events far in the future whose outcomes were not obviously determinable at the time they were recorded, and if not one of them fails, that book must be the Word of God.

The Bible contains prophecies written from 4000 BC to 700 BC concerning Jesus Christ's person, birth, living, death, resurrection, and second coming in glory. Except for His second coming, all of them were fulfilled 2,000 years ago.

All of the Bible's prophecies concerning Israel's past and present have been fulfilled. Such prophecies include the possession of the good land (Palestine), the building of the temple, the falling away, the destruction of the temple and Jerusalem, the captivity in Babylon, the rebuilding of the temple and Jerusalem, the destruction of the temple and Jerusalem again (AD 70), the restoration of the nation (1948), and the return of Jerusalem (1967). Only the prophecies concerning the end of this age remain to be fulfilled.

There are not enough pages here to enumerate all the prophecies in the Bible which have been fulfilled. These fulfilled prophecies should prove to anyone, including you, that the Bible has to be the Word of God, for it is impossible for man to predict the future with such infallibility.

Consistency Proves the Bible
Our third reason for believing that the Bible is the genuine Word of God is its consistency. The various books which comprise the Bible were written in a few different languages, by approximately forty writers with different backgrounds, over a period of sixteen hundred years. Yet it has a common theme, an introduction, a development, and a conclusion. Although the Bible was written by so many men, all of them were led by the Spirit of the one God.

The Power of the Bible
The power of the Bible to change people's lives, thoughts, directions, and behavior testifies to the validity of the Bible as the Word of God. The fact that many people have loved the Bible enough to die for it also testifies to its validity. Talking to a Christian who truly believes the Bible is unlike talking to anyone else - that person has actually experienced God.

You Must Prove It to Yourself
All of the above reasons may be convincing, but there is only one way to prove to yourself that the Bible is the Word of God. That is to do what it says and see if you get the promised results. One verse says, "Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved" (Rom. 10:13). If you say, "Lord Jesus, I call on Your name. Save me from the bondage of sins. Save me from my inability to be good and proper. Save me from my daily anxieties, fears, and frustrations. Lord Jesus, save me," you will experience His salvation. Another verse says, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God" (Matt. 5:8). You can test this verse by saying, "Lord Jesus, purify my heart that I may see God." If you pray with an open heart according to the words of the Bible, you will be saved and see God in your spirit through Jesus Christ. Then you will know that the Bible is God's Word to you.

Answer 2

This is avery good question.. however EACH indicidual race and culture has their own set of moral code and /or bible/koran, etc...

The egyptians and romans studied from hermes trismestigus, predating the bible.. however for some reason the first chapter of hermes is identical to genesis in the bible. My belief is no matter how hard and long you think of creation, there really cannot be too many stories that will make sense. I also believe that cultures borrowed many things from other cutures to evolve and adapt. Now, i know moses (who wrote genesis and the four books after) "Borrowed the wisdom of the egyptians" - book ACTS (bible). So it even states in the bible that moses borrowed some from the egyptian culture. Who is to say other cultures did not borrow wisdom from the bible. I am sure they have.

Answer 3

Amen to you. You remind me of Apollos in the book of Acts in the bible. How he proved to many that Jesus was the Christ and that the scriptures were true. I pray that we make it to heaven and bring many with us. I too agree with what you're saying. The Quran actually states itself that the bible which came before it, is accurate. The bible says do not add to its word or take from it though and so, I wonder why the Quran is even there. Go figure.

Answer 4

The Quran is just recycled stories from the Jewish and Christian faith. Told by visitors in Muhammad's tent and written down 23 years after his death, from memories, camels shoulder blades and on rocks. And we all know how reliable that information is.

Answer 5

the Bible promotes life. look at the facts surrounding the Bible. 66 books, 40 authors, 2000 years span, and not 1 part contradicts another. read it from front to back or back to front and you get the same message. God wants you as His child. He tells us to lay our lives down for others not kill others. He tells us to forgive others not take revenge against unbelievers. He tells us to die to self not kill innocent people because they don't follow our belief system. do they test and stack them up against each other.

Answer 6

You sure state a lot of FACTS that are NOT facts at all!

The Q has many FLAWS--- so NOT written by the True GOD.

Answer 7

Simply put: the Koran is not of God, the bible is.

Answer 8

Based on theologians studies, which is the true history of Bible, New Testament is written by an UNKNOWN writer. Bible was compiled from thousands of manuscripts, hundred years after Jesus Gone.

If it was WORDS OF GOD, logically, it wont take 4 human to write about Jesus in Gospel. In fact, the stories written by that 4 unknown human is not 100% same facts and story lines. If this 4 human sees with their eyes Jesus life, they wont make any single mistakes of FACTS.

In New Testament, Jesus said he PREACH his own Gospel. Where is his Gospel than?

70% of New Testament is Paul's letter. 30% is about Jesus life, which consist 4 gospel. Who holy books is this? Paul or Jesus?

Christians was based on Pauls letter. Paul translate Jesus command by his own context not the other way round, and claimed that Jesus never meant what he said?

1st. Commandment, Exodus 20:3 “Thou shalt have no other gods before me”.
2nd. Commandment, Exodus 20:4 “Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water below.”

"...The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; the Lord our God is one Lord."
Mark 12:29

The great messenger of God, Jesus, says: "And this is life eternal, that they might know You the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent." John 17:3

Can God worship God?

"Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him."
John 14:23

"Think not that I (Jesus) am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled, Fulfillment of Law of Moses."

"Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God."

"For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilledJesus, Fulfillment of Law of Moses. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 5:18-19.

Obviously, heaven and earth have not yet passed. The fact that you are reading this book bears witness to this very simple fact. So Jesus (pbuh) is telling us that so long as creation exists, the commandments will be required from his followers. Anyone who will dare to say otherwise, until the end of time, will be called "the least in the kingdom of heaven."

19 “‘And YOU people will certainly say: “Why is it that the son does not have to bear anything because of the error of the father?” Now as regards the son, justice and righteousness he has executed, all the statutes of mine he has kept and he keeps doing them. He will positively keep living. 20 The soul that is sinning—it itself will die. A son himself will bear nothing because of the error of the father, and a father himself will bear nothing because of the error of the son. Upon his own self the very righteousness of the righteous one will come to be, and upon his own self the very wickedness of a wicked one will come to be. Ezekiel 18:19-20

16 “Fathers should not be put to death on account of children, and children should not be put to death on account of fathers. Each one should be put to death for his own sin. Deut 24:16

"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, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS. He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness. Honor thy father and [thy] mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet? Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go [and] sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come [and] follow me." Matthew 19:16-21.

"Of their flesh (of the swine) shall ye NOT EAT, and their carcass ye shall NOT TOUCH; they are unclean to you " LEVITICUS 11:8

BUT, WHAT DID PAUL TEACH? lets look as his teaching:-

"a man is not justified by the works of the law ... for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.."
Galatians 2:16.

"I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but it is unclean for any one who thinks it unclean."
[Rom 14:14]

"So do not let what is good to you be spoken of as evil. For the kingdom of God does not mean food and drink but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit."
[Rom 14:16]

Pauls letter basically full of statements which basically cancel the Torah or Law of the Old Testament. He makes it a matter of how you 'understand' something that makes it 'permissible' or 'forbidden.' As an example in the English Revised Standard Version.

Paul has TARNISHED ALL JESUS COMMANDS, which results to what christians belief nowadays.

Jesus by his own words, NEVER EVER talk about TRINITY, Original Sin, about his blood and death is the only salvations, the atonement and incarnation. All the basic belief/doctrine was made up by Paul.

let me remind u again, Jesus said:-

"Think not that I (Jesus) am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled, Fulfillment of Law of Moses."

"Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God." Deuteronomy 4:2

In answer Jesus said to him: “If anyone loves me, he will observe my word, and my Father will love him, and we shall come to him and make our abode with him. John 14:23

and think of yourself, is Paul follow Jesus command?? U have to put Jesus Command above any human commands as Paul was based on Jesus command. Aint that obvious PAUL himself TARNISHED JESUS?

Take a look at this comment, do they KEEP JESUS WORDS?thats why there are thoussands of contradictions):-

"...Thus Gospels were produced which clearly reflected the conception of the practical needs of the community for which they were written. In them the traditional material was used, but there was no hesitation in altering it or making additions to it, or in leaving out what did not serve the writer's purpose."
"The history of the Christians in the light of modern knowledge," C. G. Tucker, p. 320

Prof. J.R. Drummelow says:

"A copyist would sometimes put in not what was in the text, but what he thought ought to be in it. He would trust a fickle memory, or he would make the text accord with the views of the school to which he belonged. In addition to the versions and quotations from the Christian Fathers, nearly four thousand Greek MSS of the Testament, were known to exist. As a result , the variety of reading is considerable."
"Commentary on the Holy Bible," page 16

QURAN DO NOT FOLLOW BIBLE!!!Even the way Quran narations are 100% differents from Bible narations, as well as its contents. Quran have MORE STORIES of Jesus and MARRY, which is not in Bible.

u read and compare it urself...

QURAN is full of good stories about all the prophets, even Jesus stories in Quran, praised Jesus. There is no such thing as pornography of Prophet in Quran just like it is in Old Testament (etc :-GENESIS 19:33-35, GENESIS 35:22, Genesis 38:8-10, Genesis 38:15-26,2 SAMUELS 16:22 ,2 Samuel 12:11-12, LEVITICUS 18:8-18. 20:11-14 and 17-21).

Bible GOT SCIENTIFIC FACTS WRONG!!
and even DIFFERENTS GENEALOGY OF JESUS.
Quran got all correct, infact Quran full of knowledge from ALL sorts of field, which is not mentioned in Bible, and Jesus genealogy in Quran is from MARRY!

why dont u try to read and list ALL Jesus and Pauls command to differentiate both teachings.

How can u said Quran based on Bible? Bible is not at all can be comparable to Quran in many ways.

Quran has no contradictions, no decrepancies.... how can A COPIER IS BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL WRITER?

Anyway, let me write it this way, HOW CAN A COPIER SURPASS THE ABILITY OF GODS WORDS OR GODS PRESERVATIONS OR GODS FACTS?

u have to read ALL VERSES IN QURAN before u can make a judgement! That what a wise man will do.

anyway, Jesus is not the prophesies Prophet that God has promised, Jesus is nothing like Moses, Jesus resurrection and incarnation are not 3D 3N like Jonah case, its only 2D 1N. JESUS IS NON LIKE MOSES!!

and Bible now has been corrupted by Paul!!

Jesus teaching was a true teaching, and u can see that Muslims follow what Jesus teach:-

muslims worship ABSOLUTELY 1 God, just like Jesus always preach.

muslims stick to the commandment, we circumcised, we do not eat pig/swine,we works by law.DID CHRISTIANS KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS?

We muslims do not ENGRAVE ANY symbols represents God.
We muslims Obey the commandments that have been revealed to Moses, Abraham and Jesus.

"And they say 'Allah Most Compassionate has begotten a son!'. Indeed you have put forth a thing most monstrous! The skies are ready to burst [at such a claim], and the earth to split asunder, and the mountains to fall down in utter ruin. That they should ascribe a son to the Most Compassionate. But it is not befitting [the majesty of] the Most Compassionate that He should beget a son. Not one of the beings in the heavens and the earth but must come to the Most Compassionate as a servant. He has taken account of all of them and has numbered them all exactly. And every one of them will come to him singly on the day of judgment. On those who believe and work deeds of righteousness, will Allah Most Compassionate bestow love. Verily, We have made this [Qur'an] easy in your tongue [O Muhammad] that you might deliver glad tidings to those who seek refuge [in Allah] and warn with it a people who are contentious. And how many a generation before them have we destroyed! Can you find a single one of them or hear from them so much as a whisper?"
The Noble Qur'an, Maryam(19):88-98

"..and nearest among them (mankind) in love to the believers (Muslims) will you find those who say 'we are Christians': because among these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world, and they are not arrogant"
The noble Qur'an, Al-Maidah(5):82.

"And argue not with the people of the book unless it be in [a way] which is better [than mere arguing], except with such of them that do wrong, and say [to them]: 'We believe in that which has been revealed to us and revealed to you, and our God and your God is One, and to Him we have submitted (literally: 'We are Muslims')"
The noble Qur'an, Al-Ankaboot(29):46

heaven and earth has not yet passed, thus the law will never passsed either.

if u want to try to valid that Bible or Quran is the true Gods words, try this few simple common sense:-

God, will not make any mistakes of FACTS.
God, will not make even a SINGLE contradictions or discrepancies.
God, knows what he writes.
God knows everything.
God wont write or pursue and allow sex, pornography and bad morals to humans in his holy books.

If POPE/council has the power Jesus gives, they should NOT allowed ANY MISTAKES in Bible at all.
If they know there's mistakes, they should throw the mistakes out.
If they truly have power or Authority from Jesus, THERE SHOULD NOT BEEN ANY MISTAKES AT ALL IN THE FIRST PLACE. Technology is not the excuse... ITS GODS WORDS WE R TALKING ABOUT HERE.
The people responsibles SHOULD PRESERVED IT FROM ANY ERRORS AT ALL TO SHOW ITS TRULY GODS WORDS.

In bible was written:-

"Prove all things; hold fast that which is good"
1 Thessalonians 5:21

and "For God is not [the author] of confusion"
1 Corinthians 14:33.

Like i said, u should PUT Jesus command ABOVE ALL!
and love God that Jesus himself worship obey and love.

Anyway let me answer according to ur facts:-

THE QUR'AAN CAME INTO EXISTENCE CENTURIES AFTER THE BIBLE AND TORAh --->

1.Bibles exist after 1800 years after Torah. Why dont u questioned it too?
2.Muslims believe Allah revealed Torah to Moses, Injil (which later was called as Bible) to Jesus and Quran to Muhammad.
3.However, the TRUE INJIL of Jesus has lost and been corrupted by Jews and Romans. Thus there are A LOT OF CONTRADICTIONS!

THE QUR'AAN TESTIFIES ABOUT ONE TRUE GOD (ALLAH) AND HIS PROPHETS---->

1. Yes Quran testify the 1 ABSOLUTE true God.
2.Torah testify 1 ABSOLUTE true God.
3.Jesus testify 1 ABSOLUTE true God.
4. PAUL TESTIFY 3 IN 1 GOD!!!
5.Abraham, Jonah,Moses,Jesus and all people BEFORE Jesus believe in 1 ABSOLUTE God, they NEVER BELIEVE GOD IS 3 BUT 1.
5.All muslims believe in ABSOLUTELY 1 God. Muslims NEVER said God is 3 But 1, thats the most HOROR thing to say that God is equavelent to 3 IN 1!! just like Jesus himself said:-
"...The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; the Lord our God is one Lord." Mark 12:29 (JESUS HIMSELF SAID WE WORSHIP THE SAME 1 GOD)

in OT GOD SAID:-
"I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no savior." Isaiah 43:11
"I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me," Isaiah 46:9
"and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Savior there is none beside me," Isaiah 45:21

IT WAS WRITTEN BY THE ASSOCIATES OF MUHAMMAD--->
1.Muhammad could not read and write, this is the way Allah want to proves that HE IS NOT A LIAR.
2. How can we know that? well READ QURAN!!!!
3. Quran contained KNOWLEDGE THAT SURPASSED HUMAN BEINGS KNOWLEDGE!!
4.Thats where it proves all Scientific, historical, and cover ALL hundreds of field, astronomy, environment, physics, sosial, law, everything.
5.Quran is not just a histories about prophets or about Muhammad.
6.Allah told us more in Quran thats why Quran covers all area/field of this world, as ONLY CREATOR KNOWS WHAT HE CREATES.
7.Muhammad DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING BYHIMSELF. IT WAS REVEALED BY ALLAH.
8.SInce MUhammad is NOT AMONG THE KNOWLEDGEABLE PEOPLE, HE CANT READ, CANT WRITE----> THUS CAN THIS TYPE OF PEOPLE KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS WORLD? ACCURATELY CORRECT?
9.Dont forget that NEW TESTAMENT IS WRITTEN BY SO-CALLED DISCIPLES OF JESUS!
10.INFACT, IT WAS WRITTEN AFTER JESUS GONE!
11. QURN WAS WRITTEN DURING MUHAMMAD LIFE TIME.
12. ALL around the world Quran is the same.
13. IN FACT QURAN IS THE ONLY HOLY BOOK IN THE WORLD THAT MAINTAIN ITS ORIGINALITY OF LANGUAGE WHICH STILL BEING USED NOWADAYS WORLDWIDE.

THE QUR'AAN's EXISTENCE WAS AFTER THE TECHNOLOGY OF WRITTING WAS INVENTED---->
1. Because of that, Quran has no mistakes? is that what u mean?
2. If u think it that way..... questioned urself..
3.Can the technology of Human surpassed the capability of GOD?
4. If just because the technology doesnt exist during Jesus time, thus all the mistakes, or contradictions can be accepted by Christians as human makes mistakes?
5.It means u r saying that GODS WORDS ARE NOT CAPABLE PRESERVED IN BIBLE, and at the same time all CHRISTIANS RELY ON THE MISTAKES??!! AINT THAT RIDICULOUS? U KNOW IT CONTAIN MISTAKES AND YET U WANNA FOLLOW IT?U better read the verses above again and again.
6. People who dont preseved God words are the least in Kingdoms, People who changed god words and command will be hate by Jesus himself.
7. And this kind of people u wanna follow?
8.HOW CAN GOD MAKES MISTAKES?????!!!!!!
9. Only human makes mistakes, THUS HUMAN HAS CHANGED THE ORIGINAL BIBLE OF JESUS!!
10. THAT IS WHY, CHRISTIANS HAVE DIFFERENT BELIEVES THAN THE ABRAHAM, MOSES,JESUS AND MUHAMMAD.
