CHRISTIANS can you believe this ?

Question

A short story:
a young christian of 13 , asked his mother >>> what were people worshiping at the time of Adam, Noah, Abraham,......until Moses?
she answered >>> God !!!.
he asked >>> why we worship jesus then?
she answered >>>because it is written in the bible.
he asked >>> what will be the faith of the people before the coming of jesus ?
she answered >>> I don't know.
So, After thinking about this even more, knowing that there is
a religion ( Islam) that worships only one God , like the people
before. Again ,he too believed this. And became a muslim at
age 17 himself. Why? Because he could not accept or find reasons to believe in the trinity concept. None of the people before nor after any of the phophets believed in this. This belief is only in the bible( new testament) not in the old testament or
the Quran.Can we trust or believe blindly in the bible and ignore
what most people on the earth have all believed.

"Russell T" the Quran tells that there is no prophet after Muhammad, no pwerful or new religion with a book and a prophet.
<< did you see one?>>
the Bible prophesies about the advent of Muhammad , but if you keep being blind and arroguant it will not be possible for you to see it but it is easy for non biased people

Answer 1

Christians dont worship Jesus, they worship God.

Answer 2

what silliness , the answer is before Jesus was the old testament, Jesus was prophetsied in the old testament , Mohamed wasn't
your logic is non logical
any argument you make about Christianity you can make about Islam
you worship a meteorite 5 times a day

would you like a conversion story of a Muslim turning from the false prophet Mohamed and finding god ?
what a very very silly post

A Muslim boy asked his mother what did people worship before Mohamed
the mother replied they were Jews
oh said the boy, was Jesus prohetsied , yes he was he is the Messiah
was Mohamed propertied in the old testament , no said his mother
why did not people see Mohamed rise to heaven in Jerusalem when it was a very educated Jewish city, i dont know
said the mother
why do we pray towards a metorite 5 time a day said teh boy?
becuse the mother said, it is a pre islamic artifact that could not possible have been found by issac or abraham that far into arabia desert
the son considered this and like many Muslims decided the Koran is a false book and became a christian and found god

Answer 3

We worship God still... Jesus is God, God is Jesus, Jesus is the Holy Spirit, God is the Holy Spirit. Its 3 in one. Like my mom is a mother, a wife, and a daugther. Even if you can't see the relation, God is all knowing, so much so that our minds cant take in how much he knows. There are so many things that God will never reveal to us, such as the resurrection, how it happened, and the trinity, how its possible. Not because He doesn't want to reveal it, but because its uncomprehendable to the human mind. Its like putting a 3-D being in a 2-D world. The 2-D people would not be able to understand why the 3-D being looks the way it does, and because it's lived in a 2-D world its whole life, it will never understand. And the faith before the coming of Jesus was obviously believing, and having faith that Jesus was going to come and take the sins of the world.

Answer 4

A short story:
a young muslim of 13 , asked his mother >>> what were people worshiping at the time of Adam, Noah, Abraham,......until Moses?
she answered >>> God !!!.
he asked >>> why we worship Muhammad then?
she answered >>>because it is written in the Koran.
he asked >>> what will be the faith of the people before the coming of Muhammad ?
she answered >>> they worship the moon of GOD.
So, After thinking about this even more, knowing that there is
a religion ( Christain) that worships God (three person in one GOD) 1*1*1=1 , like the people
before. Again ,he too believed this. And became a Christain at
age 17 himself. Why? Because he could not accept or find reasons to believe in the Koran and hadith concept.

Answer 5

Hmmm. Maybe he should have talked to one like me.

The Trinity is indivisible. To a Christian, Jesus is God begotten as Man in order to lay His life down for Man, whom He loved. Jesus fulfilles an outrageous number of prophecies from the Old Testament. Of course there are those He doesn't fulfill, which makes sense, since time continues.

So, the prophets did, very much, worship the same God as the Christians.

How is it then that a Just Judge like Allah can simply forgive? To a Christian the answer is Jesus. A plan of Just Goodness. For no man can be worthy of anything but..."ask me not about..."

This fits also with the ancient Jewish practice of sacrifices and the Muslim practice of giving to the poor (a sacrifice).

You will find that the God you worship, is not different, in His person, than that I worship as a Catholic.

Answer 6

I applaude your attempts to shake the faith of some of the Christians on here, but you need a little better method of doing so. First of all, the little boy in this story had the misfortune of having an ignorant mother. Was there no spiritual male in his life he could have gone to? There is no 'Trinity' listed in the Bible. That is a Catholic concept. The God that Adam and Moses, etc, worshipped is the same God we Christians worship today. Worshipping Christ is not a form of polytheism. Christ was the physical embodiment of God, on earth. The Old Testament is for our learning, and the laws that were given to Moses were put in place not only to govern their behavior, but to help the Jews realize that they did in fact have a problem with sin. The sacrafices the priests offered on their behalf covered those sins. These laws were written in stone. Christ came so that we can have our sins washed away through baptism. His laws are written in our hearts and minds. He is God in the flesh, His having been here on earth lets us know that He understands our flaws, our temptations, and our pains. He experienced it, yet without sinning. The Holy Spirit is the power or the spirit of God that dwells in us. The Apostles had a different measure of the holy Spirit, in that they were able to perform miracles and healing, etc. We today (us baptized believers, that is) have a different measure of this same Spirit, which enables us to discern between what is truth and what is false doctrine. Why should people go with 'what most people believe?' Since when is that confirmation of truth? You should have better faith in your own religion than to use an 'all the cool kids are doing it' approach.

Answer 7

The mother should have done some research for her child and answered from the Bible. She should not have ignored her child in this situation. Nice to think that the Torah and the Quran are one and the same but they are not. Night and day would be the best way to describe them. I feel sympathy for the child that would turn his back on the Son of God for a fable. The Antichrist.It is not in the Old Testament because they foretold of the coming of Emanuel not Muhammad. Also Jesus is God the Son not some little human running around molesting children and thinking he is blessed because he had sex with a 9 year old girl. Yippee!! Holy and righteous I guess, not in my eyes thank you very much. They call that pedophilia these days in the country I live in.

Answer 8

What we call the Jewish faith today started with Abraham. This religion remains today, with Christianity as a direct offshoot thereof. Both religions are fractured within, splitting into different sects and denominations. The same can be said for the Muslim faith, as it also has different sects. Everyone is trying to get a handle on God, and it's amazing how many people think this is something worth fighting over. Can't everyone accept what others believe? I'm a Christian (not exactly practicing right now, though) and I'm not out to change everyones mind, despite popular belief.

Answer 9

I believe that God is alive and is not mute and has a mind of His own. ANd that time and everything is subject to him. So if the knowledge of Jesus divinity is not as clear as it was before duirng the prophets of teh old testament, it si only because God in his infinite mercy has sustained humanity's reluctance in understanding His true nature. Of course Jesus Christ was not revealed as Jesus Christ as HE is now in modern times. But the Quran the Old testament testify of the God that will save HIs people. If any soul searches the truth wiht an open mind, I'm sure you'll find that the prophets of Old-- from Adam, ABraham, Moses, look forward to the day that this great God they so communicated in the past would appear to his people and become their teacher. He is called many names.

Answer 10

It's a shame that fellow's mother didn't understand that every time those old testament people encountered God, they encountered Jesus, who is the 2nd person of the Holy Trinity, and the person most theologians understand to be the one who ALWAYS interfaced with man ... even to the point of becoming one of us ... forever.

From Eden to Ur, Bethel, Egypt, Sinai ... all the way to Bethlehem, Nazareth, Calvary, and the Mount of Olives ... it was always Jesus.

No one has seen the Father, and no one has seen the Holy Spirit, except Jesus, the son of God, and it is the son of God who was always destined to be the person of the Godhead who would be known to man.

You Muslim guys who claim to accept the Bible as a holy book (but don't really) ought to read it a little closer, so you don't make more of these kinds of mistakes.

Answer 11

God has made a way for all people throughout time to know Him and reach Him. In the Garden of Eden Adam & Eve walked and talked with God on a daily basis. Their sin caused them to be cast out of the garden. Moses gave the Jews God's law in the OT. When God sent Jesus to be the last blood sacrifice needed for repentance of sin the Jews did not accept Him as their Messiah so He offered this gift of salvation to the Gentiles as well. Jesus' blood is what covers our sins and Jesus is our intercessor who sits at the right hand of Father God taking our prayers and supplications to Him.

John 14:6 (New International Version)
"Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

If you are praying your prayers to a person who is dead and gone or a "prophet" then your prayers are not reaching God. Jesus is the only way to the Father.
