Islam versus Christianity, end times?

Question

is it true that Muslims believe that Jesus (Isa) (peace be upon him), will come to earth in the end times and do away with the idea that Jesus (peace be upon him) was cruxified? is it true that he will do this by killing Christians who are the people of the book? Bible translated means book or books. therefore we are the people of the book, so are Jews.

in Christianity it is believed that an antichrist will come and persecute Christians. is it possible that Islam will crown the antichrist and declare war on Christians?

Answer 1

yea we believe in that...The thing is Jesus PBUH will come back on earth all over again and he will kill all the non-believers and will leave the believers leaving in peace..

Answer 2

no that's not true... are you crazy? first of all, one group of people will not be solely responsible for ending times. Second, the Muslim religion as many similarities to Christianity, but also some differences, but crowning Jesus to kill the people of the bible is not one of them, and I can't believe anyone would believe something like that. Coming from a Christan I still have to say this is just another way to make Muslims seem like a crazy violent, anti-christian religion, when in reality, the extreme Muslims are a very very small minority amongst the millions of Muslims around the world.

Answer 3

If Muslims want to believe that Christ didn't die on a cross, they're free to believe whatever they want to believe. Abraham Lincoln used to ask the question "if you call a tail a leg then how many legs does a dog have"? The answer to that riddle is that the dog still has 4 legs because calling a tail a leg doesn't make it one. In the same way I would say that believing that Christ did not die on a cross does not make it so. The historical facts prove otherwise.
Why should I believe Mohammad or Muslim scholars who came much later(700 years later) over the apostles and writers of the New Testament who were either eye witnesses or they got it from eye witnesses(regardless, all of them lived during that time period). Also, the church fathers and early scholars of the church all testified that he died on a cross. Even extra biblical historians such as Tacitus, Suetonius, Pliny the younger, Josephus, thallus and other historians who lived during that time period have testified that Jesus died on a cross. Actually, the only historians that you'll ever find anywhere(religious or secular) who will say that Jesus didn't die on a cross are Muslim historians. If i'm reading an eye witness account of a speech that Richard the lion-hearted gave in about 1190AD and you come up to me and say "no, that's not what he said.....let me tell you what he really said". My answer to you is going to be "why should I believe you over him....he was an eye witness.........you came along 900 years later".

Answer 5

ANYTHING IS POSSIBILE WITH THE ANTICHRIST YET

WHAT THE MUSLIMS BELIEVE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH JESUS RETURNING AND DON'T READ INTO BIBLE MEANING THIS OR THAT.
SCRIPTURE...THERE WHERE NO BOOKS WHEN JESUS WAS HERE ARE WHEN ANY DSICIPLES WERE WRITING EPISTLES..
BOOK YOU REFER CAME 350 TO 500 AD.....
PEOPLE OF THE BOOK IS MUSLIMS AND CHRISTIANS DON'T USE THAT TERM.

THE BIBLE IS A LIST OF SCRIPTURE BOUND INTO A BOOK CALLED THE BIBLE.

THE JEWS DO NOT REFER TO NEW TESTAMENT THUS REVELATIONS AND THOSE 27 NT BOOKS ARE TOTALLY OUT AS FAR AS THEY ARE CONCERNED. THEY STICK T0 39 OT BOOKS

BIBLE IS BEST REFERRED TO AS THE GOSPEL....NOT BOOK.

THE GOSPEL..THE WRITTEN AND SPOKEN WORD.
1 COR 15:4 BORN-DIED-RESURRECTED

CANNOT TAKE BIBLE AND MIX IT WITH MUSLIM AND SEEK TRUTH.
NOR WITH JEWISH UNLESS YOU ADD NT WITH MESSANIC JEWS.

Answer 6

mohammad only wished to unite jews and christians. he had no intention of founding a 3rd religion.

jews and christians hold don't share beliefs about the books of the bible. only the torah -- or first five books are considered sacred by jews while christian relgions usually give all books equal weight. the prophets are earlier histories and the writings are later histories. they are divided and ordered differently than the old testament.

i think the anti christ will most likely come from christianity. christianity has named its own sabbath (sunday or resurrection day) and denyed the sabbath of god(saturday).

Answer 7

Muslims believe Jesus( Eesa a.s.) is one of God messenger, not a divine being.
We believe he hasnt die( not the one being crucifix), and he will descent back to earth in the end time to oppose the antichrist, the Dajjal laknatullah.
He will also persecute most jews who would be the main supporter of Dajjal ( thinking he is their promised messiah ).

Answer 8

There is not antichrist. The mark of the beast is explained as man's number to distinguish it from a heavenly prospect, it means its from this world. The beast is the different governments of the world that will attack false religion first and then the one true one. Then the Satan and his demons are rounded up by Jesus and his angels.

Answer 9

Perhaps, but why would Jesus kill His followers? BTW, Christians are already being persecuted by the antichrist

Answer 10

The Bible says that Gods people will be persecuted at the end, now go look in the bible who is Gods people, you will find its Israel. Then go check out the news and see whats happening to Israel today, the persecution has begun

Answer 11

Really? So Israel has executed unarmed men and enslaved the women of conquered Palestinian villiages? Perhaps she has burned people alive in their places of worship? Don't tell me about that most heinous of Israeli crimes--maintaining all holy sites at any cost, including allowing the Muslims to worship at al-Asqa and denying Jews the opportunity to pray at their most holy religious site in the world. Perhaps there is something wrong with YOU... Peace
