It is annoying when people take single versus from the bible, and in those single versus twist them to their perverted meanings. I see this even within the Christian church, and it is despicable as it serves only the person who performs the devious act; it is a manipulation of the facts, and of truth.
Your quotes from the Bible are accurate, but well out of context. In Matthew 10, Jesus was giving instructions to the 12 apostles at that time. The reason being is he was setting the early stage for his crucification, requiring the Jewish population to start the acknowledgment that he is the Messiah, thus upsetting the Pharisees.
Your second quote from Matthew 15 is even more perversely taken out of context; a scholar you are not! A Cannanite woman comes begging to Jesus to help her demon possessed daughter. Jesus, testing her faith, tells her, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel." and asks that she be sent away. When she persisted, knowing that Jesus could indeed help her daugther, Jesus said in verse 28, "Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted." and healed her daughter.
To further quote from the book of Matthew, chapter 24 verse 14, "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come." In this chapter Jesus tells his disciples about the Sign of the End of the Age, warning that "many false prophets will appear and deceive many people". Yourself perhaps?
You also fail to quote Paul in the book of Galatians, chapter 1 verse 15, "But when God, who set me apart from birth[a] and called me by his grace, was pleased to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not consult any man, nor did I go up to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before I was, but I went immediately into Arabia and later returned to Damascus." Clearly, Paul tells us he was appointed by God that one day on the road to Damascus to be the apostle to the Gentiles.
You sir, are either a fraud, uneducated, or both. Please get your facts correct the next time you decide to go bash another religion. BTW, notice I did not cut yours down. Please do us the same courtesy.

They're all descendants of Abraham, Moses and Noah, each of whom had a covenant (an agreement) with God regarding the future of the Hebrew people and all future descendants. The original concept was that there would be a "deliverer" sent to rescue them from their enemies. There is no "covenant" pertaining to the "forgiveness for the blemish of original sin," which is pretty much exclusively a Christian invention, isn't it? Of course, what do I know, I never memorized the Bible and tried to make sense of it all....

HAHAHAHHA you're making me chortle alongside with your lack of expertise! The diacretical marks have been added on later whilst Islam unfold international huge, They added those so people who do no longer communicate Arabic can study the holy e book conveniently. they do no longer choose the unique copies reason the Qua'ran has been memorized over the years and and has been handed on for the time of the great Imams. And finally WOW relatively yeah they do have 4 unique Qu'rans.

Don't forget that Jesus also said "No one comes to the Father except through me." John 14:6
"Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved." Acts 4:12

Jesus is God!!?? ....Astaghfirullah al Adheem. Authu'billlah from such claims. Jesus is a Prophet and a Messenger of Allah only.
وَإِن مِّنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ إِلاَّ لَيُؤْمِنَنَّ بِهِ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَكُونُ عَلَيْهِمْ شَهِيدًا
"...And there is none of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), but must believe in him (Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), as only a Messenger of Allah and a human being), before his (Iesa (Jesus) or a Jews or a Christians) death (at the time of the appearance of the angel of death). And on the Day of Resurrection, he (Iesa (Jesus)) will be a witness against them..." (Qur'an 4:159)

You are absolutely and totally incorrect.
There's only one new covenant, mediated by Jesus Christ, paid for and and sanctified by his blood, which was poured out for ALL who would accept it.
If you choose not to, then I wish you good luck with Mohammed's deal.
You better be right too, because there will be no second chances.

There is no other way to God..except through Jesus..
the other "roads" lead the wrong way.
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me

people who pick and choose bits and pieces of the scripture to support their own self-interest are ignoring the rest of the teaching, and making themselves look the fool
