I was walking one day at UCSD, when I saw " Islam Christianity" I was curious. He said that the Bible they have is unchanged, that Jesus was just a messenger/prophet. What do you say to this? because he said that The Bible is wrong bc it's been changed?

there is NO proof whatsoever that the bible has been changed/corrupted! We have proof from early manuscripts that date to 120 a.d. which validate todays NT to almost 100% these manuscripts predate Islam by almost 600 years! we have the dead sea scrolls among some which prove todays OT> we have 20,000 copies of the new testament in greek, latin, hebrew, which prove the authenticity of todays NT> Jesus is not merely just a prophet but is LORD AND GOD>

There are Christians who believe Jesus was only a messenger of God and that the Bible has been distorted for its original form.

If the guy believes that Muhammad was the last messenger of God and Jesus was a prophet and not son of God that would make him Muslim all the way, if he believed that Muhammad is a messenger along with Jesus, but not the Final messenger that would make him a Bahia. But believing that Jesus what a prophet of God is actually what the earliest Christians believed. And believing that the Bible has been changed from its original form doesn't unmake you a Christian, many Christians theologians believe that, some others don't however.

So "Islam Christianity" is obsolete because theoretically a Muslim is "like" a Christian that believes Jesus as a Messenger and Muhammad as the last. The only way to include Islam into Christianity would be to be totally Muslim. In other words, the distortion of the bible is a gray area within various people of various beliefs and not a main tenet of Islam. And today Christinity and Islam cancel each other out so it is impossible for them to be conjoined in a belief system.

I dont believe an unchanged version of the bible exists today...unfortunately. IF it did, then the christians would not be doing all these wrong things. the biggest being that they claim Jesus was the "son" of god, when he himself never stated this ever in his humble life...

This debate will be neverending until Jesus himself sets it straight after descending (not ressurected) from the Heavens. that is when the truth will be revealed. the christians will be left speechless. the reason why I said "not ressurected" is because he never died at the cross. god is the all powerful, capable of creating any miracle big and small. He lifted his soul up to heaven and replaced it with the soul of another person. Since every soul must taste death, Jesus will descend from Heaven, fight the antichrist (or dajjal in arabic) and live a peaceful life on earth then eventually die a natural death like every other human being on earth.

This question is unclear to me. Muslims have a Qu'ran not a Bible. And we believe that Jesus is a Messenger and not God in the flesh. The Bible through its many translations has been changed in meaning whereas the Qu'ran has not. Muslims believe in the message that Jesus gave in its true form. And in those verses that match between the Bible and the Qu'ran you will find no dispute. There is much written also about the Prophet Mohammed in the Bible and many books written about it. One scholar who facuses a lot on this is Ahmed Deedat. You can google him.

The Bible and the Koran are both flawed, man-made books of nonsense. God did not create any religion.

Islam came 600 years after Christianity, I think we know who Jesus is. In case a Muslim doesnt know, he is God, and no camel salesmen by the name of Muhammed will tell me otherwise.
